I'm trying to fix the qmail-smtpd error 256 problem, without any success
so far.
I'm invoking qmail-smtpd using:
tcpserver -v -c40 -x /etc/tcprules.d/qmail-smtpd.db -u`id -u qmaild` \
-g`id -g qmaild` -H1 0 smtp sh -c 'fixcr | qmail-smtpd' \
2>&1| setuser qmaill accustamp \
| setuser qmaill cyclog -s 1000000 /var/log/qmail-smtpd &
(having replaced "qmail-smtpd" with "sh -c 'fixcr | qmail-smtpd'" as
suggested by another poster)
My log file still shows qmail-smtpd returning error 256:
1999-05-09 16:48:21.216709 tcpserver: status: 1/40

198.41.0.91 is opsmail.internic.net - so far the only sender I've seen
this problem with.
172.24.10.101 is the qmail machine merlin's IP behind the firewall -
could this be causing a problem?
