Hello all

I had a primary MX HDD fail, and for about 6 hours the secondary MX took
up the slack and qued up about 300 messages.

Problem is that I don't see them being forwarded now the primary is up
again.

One thing that MAY had caused a problem is that while the DNS had the
proper MX records:

f-tech.net      MX      10      mail.f-tech.net
f-tech.net      MX      30      login.f-tech.net

I think the secondary thought that they were it's own mail, as the local's
file included the all of the domains that I keep mail for.  

I have since cleared out the locals file to just:
localhost
login.f-tech.net

and rcpthosts has all the info for domains I get mail for.  When I try and
run the que (kill -ALRM qmail-send) all mail tries to deliver itself
locally.  I do have all the users listed in both the mail and login
server, so if it did look for [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the passwd file it would
find it (for radius lookups).

The mail log says:

Apr 29 20:14:30 login qmail: 925431270.998476 delivery 215: deferral:
Unable_to_chdir_to_maildir._(#4.2.1)/

So it's looking to put the qued mail into the local /home dirs.

How can I flush the que back to the primary?
