ntmasters.net, which is the qmail server.

You might just want to make sure you have .shadowplay.org in your
/var/qmail/control/locals
It prolly handles shadowplay.org fine, but it doesn't handle hosts
right.
Add the line, restart qmail and see what happens then.

Subject: User with Capitals in name
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)

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.
