I have a user named Seek3r. When I send e-mail to either
[EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] the message doesnt get to the
user Seek3r, and I dont get a bounce back. I do get a message in the
/var/qmail/alias/Maildir with the message I pasted at the end of this
message.

I know this is an issue with the capital letter S in Seek3r, because when I
change the user name in the /etc/passwd file to seek3r, and the home dir as
well, then rebuild the /var/qmail/users/assign file, everything works fine.
When I created the assign file with qmail-pw2u I used the o and u flags (o
to skip users without home dirs, and u to allow uppercase letters in user).

Why is this happening, and what can I do to fix it?

Thanks in advanced for any help!

Hi. This is the qmail-send program at ntmasters.net.
I tried to deliver a bounce message to this address, but the bounce bounced!

<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Sorry. Although I'm listed as a best-preference MX or A for that host,
it isn't in my control/locals file, so I don't treat it as local. (#5.4.6)

--- Below this line is the original bounce.

Hi. This is the qmail-send program at ntmasters.net.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.
