I am running Red Hat 5.2 and tried to replace sendmail with qmail but experienced some problems. Installation went pretty smoothly, but when it came to test, it failed. Well, maybe failure is not correct word, since I didn't get an error message, but I didn't get what I expected either. I tried to send mail locally, as described in TEST.receive, by telnet to port 25, but I never got anything in the Mailbox. Now, as I said, no error messages in maillog, but delivery - success field is incomplete. Here are messages from maillog: May 8 11:51:03 localhost qmail: 926185863.365457 new msg 471059 May 8 11:51:03 localhost qmail: 926185863.365600 info msg 471059: bytes 208 from <> qp 680 uid 7791 May 8 11:51:03 localhost qmail: 926185863.456627 starting delivery 2: msg 471059 to local @hal.utah-inter.net May 8 11:51:03 localhost qmail: 926185863.456721 status: local 1/10 remote 0/20 May 8 11:51:03 localhost qmail: 926185863.457687 delivery 2: success: May 8 11:51:03 localhost qmail: 926185863.457768 status: local 0/10 remote 0/20 May 8 11:51:03 localhost qmail: 926185863.457829 end msg 471059 Then I tried remote-to-local test, it failed too, but this time with an error message: May 8 12:38:25 localhost qmail: 926188705.179383 new msg 471059 May 8 12:38:25 localhost qmail: 926188705.179510 info msg 471059: bytes 1106 from <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> qp 1961 uid 7791 May 8 12:38:25 localhost qmail: 926188705.270538 starting delivery 4: msg 471059 to remote dcosic@localhost May 8 12:38:25 localhost qmail: 926188705.270639 status: local 0/10 remote 1/20 May 8 12:38:25 localhost qmail: 926188705.926201 delivery 4: failure: 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)/ May 8 12:38:25 localhost qmail: 926188705.926338 status: local 0/10 remote 0/20 May 8 12:38:26 localhost qmail: 926188706.041654 bounce msg 471059 qp 1963 May 8 12:38:26 localhost qmail: 926188706.041985 end msg 471059 After this followed message about bounce mail, which was sent successfully. Well I don't what else to say or what else information could help solving this problem. During installation I followed instructions from INSTALL.* files. Only thing that I did other then just a simple installation is masquerading host name. Host name is al.utah-inter.net and utah-inter.net is my ISP's domain. One more thing. I don't know if qmail-local is supposed to be running all the time, but when I run ps, I get this: 367 ? S 0:00 qmail-lspawn ./Mailbox 366 ? S 0:00 splogger qmail 369 ? S 0:00 qmail-clean 368 ? S 0:00 qmail-rspawn 355 ? S 0:00 qmail-send Well that's all. On the end of the file I included output from qmail-showctl if you need to know more about qmail configuration. I hope somebody can help me solve this problem. I don't feel like using hotmail any more! Thanks.
