Hi! I'm using qmail1.03+fastforward 0.51+procmail delivery to
/var/spool/$USER Mbox on linux RedHat 6.0
Here is my /etc/aliases:
---------------------
alias1: user1
alias2: user1, user2
alias3: alias1, alias2
----------------------
If I send mail to alias3, it should send one copy of mail to user1 and
user2
(user1 is a duplicate recipient. So fastforward will send a message only
one time).
But actually user1 got two copies....
My /var/qmail/alias/.qmail-default:
--------------------------------------
| fastforward -d /etc/aliases.cdb
--------------------------------------
Any idea?
Thanks,
Dmitry S. Levin
A second question for the list:
I'm migrating all linux boxen we have to qmail. I have a RHL 4.2 box
running kernel 2.0.32 and I set up qmail on it just like I have three
other boxes before it. Only difference between the boxen is OS version
(the other three were RHL 6.0 with 2.2.10 kernel).
My problem: SMTP connections to qmail are made, but immediate dropped.
No core dump can be found. No error messages can be found.
Are there known issues with qmail not working on a RHL 4.2 box or with
pre 2.2.x kernels? I must keep him the way he his because we have a
Matrox Meteor in him and the only driver we can find for it is a patch
for that kernel on that version (never could get the driver working
under RHL 5.0).
Thanks!
Kevin

My current box has a 2.0.34 kernel, I think. I've run qmail with lots
of 2.0.xx kernels. I've never been exactly RH 4.2 or RH 5.0 -- the
box has too much history for that :-).
If you installed a prebuilt qmail, either your own or from an RPM, you
might want to think about library versions; maybe your 4.2 box doesn't
have want you need, and the others do. (I'd think this would make a
message and a core file, though). Similar questions for tcpserver
versions.

Seems you are incorrect, I tested a few scenarios I also use fast forward
I have several alias for my user lets say me1, me2, me3 are all aliases for
me
1) sent mail to me1@host and me2@host, I received 2 mails
2) sent mail to me2@host and me2@host, I received 2 mails
3) sent mail to me@host and me@host, I received 2 mails
It seems that it doesn't care about duplicate recipients, why would you want
the alias3 setup the way it is anyway? It seems you could better setup the
groups

Occasionally I get a message similar to this

I'm sure that either the <#@[]> or postmaster@ is causing the problem but
I'm not sure why either of them come up like that..
am I missing a control file or something?
thanks

What does your /var/qmail/control/doublebouncehost contain? I
would guess it's an empty file. Either set it up with a name of
existing host, or delete is and /var/qmail/control/me will be used.

Hello,
I am not sure why I am beating myself up trying to get the
dot-forwarding to work, I do have fastforward working on the old server. I
had tried to install majordomo and got nothing but problems, so .... I
found a HOWTO that took me through the steps of installing majordomo under
Qmail, but it used the dot-forward method of relaying.
My problem is this:
I am hosting nine virtual domains on one box using apache. I want to relay
mail that is sent to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]',
there are a total of 8 email accounts in the kfctristate domain: 'office',
'hamlin', 'newton', etc... Reading the FAQs and docs for Qmail leave me
totally in the dark on how to do this, all mail sent to
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]' bounces with the error of 'Sorry, no mailbox
here by that name (#5.1.1)'.
So, I installed the dot-forward package, replaced /var/qmail/rc with
/var/qmail/boot/home+df. Then edited /var/qmail/control/virtualdomains to
place a line in it as
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]:alias-kfctristate-ted_silver'. Then created
'~alias/.qmail-kfctristate-ted_silver' with the contents of
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]'.
The domain, kfctristate.com, is listed in the /var/qmail/control directory
in the locals, plusdomain, and rcpthosts files.
Would someone please give me a clue as to the problem here? I am stumped
and have no idea what I am doing wrong.
TIA
Tom
