Note : I renamed dirmaker to dirmaker.old because it wasnt anyways
creating a new maildirectory when i was adding a user.
I had added localhost.mydomain.com to virtualdomains (that was after i
had tried everything that i could = just for experimentation)

Amit,
When you create users in your LDAP directory, make sure you DO NOT
set mailMessageStore.
For more help, you should post one ldif export and the results of
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-showctl

*Subject:* about qmail mail delivery directory
I have struggled a lot on this, posted this same question on
qmail-ldap list sometime back, but still no clue on to why
mails dont end up in /var/qmail/maildirs/<user> directory.
I unchecked the AUTOHOMEDIRMAKE and AUTOMAILDIRMAKE options
during qmail-ldap compilation.
1. user:group = vmail:vmail
How did you create user and group vmail? (What command did you use or
did you directly edit /etc/passwd file?)
What are the permissions of dirmaker script? (show us ls -ls output)
Does your dirmaker work if you run it something like...
$ ./dirmaker /var/qmail/maildirs/amit/
Run above command as user vmail.
Also read this link http://www.proscrutiny.com/howtos/qmail-ldap.html
Hope it will help you.
2. vmail home directory = /var/qmail/maildirs
3. Control files
(a) ldapmessagestore = /var/qmail/maildirs
(b) defaultdelivery = ./Maildir/
(c) ldapdefaultdotmode = both
(d) ldaplocaldelivery = 0
4. Create the maildirs for appropriate users through the command
/var/qmail/bin/maildirmake /var/qmail/maildirs/<user>
for i in Trash Drafts Sent; do
/var/qmail/bin/maildirmake -f $i user
done
5. I am using supervise and tcpserver to run qmail.
when i send a mail to any user on the local machine, lets
say [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, or
[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
This mail ends up being stuck in the queue....for that matter
all local mails remain in the queue..In the logs for
qmail-send, I get a unable to chdir /home/<user>, no such file
or directory error message. My question is....I have set up
the vmail home directory as /var/qmail/maildirs, then why is
qmail looking for /home/user/Maildir ??? How can I get qmail
to deliver messages to /var/qmail/maildirs/<user> ?
I have a sincere request to make...may be many of u guys will
shout at me for these questions to be too silly, or becos it
has been previously asked, but I have not been able to find
the solution for this problem even after so much struggle.
Hope u will understand and extend ur help...
