I have spent the last couple of weeks trying to get qmail to work, 
I have a
                   number of problems - not least of which is how do you get help from 
a mailing
                   list, with no E-mail facility.  I solved that with this web-mail 
thing,  I always
                   wondered what is was good for :-).

                   I am running RH6.0,  on 2.2.5 - we have a small network with 6 
computers at
                   present 4 running Windows and using OE as the client.   The last 
two including
                   the server run RH6.0.

                   I have set-up Qmail as per the howto, and have added vchkpw to 
authenticate
                   users.  Two major problems present themselves, the first is the 
dirty R word, yes
                   relaying - the stock  reply to this seems to be RTFM, so as not to 
be tarred with
                   that brush I have done so a number of times, and followed the 
directions
                   regarding tcp.smtp and tcprules with great care a number of times.  
  Every time
                   I get told to take my mail away - this doesn't impress my users.   
I have checked
                   the tcp.smtp file in a number of editors and no spurious control 
codes are
                   present.

                   Just to be thorough, I heve checked what is running with top at 
startup, I have
                   qmail-rspawn, qmail-lspawn, qmail-clean and accustamp running under 
qmail-send,
                   which in turn runs under supervise.   I have two instances of 
tcpserver running
                   under two instances of supervise.   Does this sound normal?

                   When I create a mail with qmail-inject, I can't log on to 
qmail-pop3d to retrieve
                   it from the network, I get a 'no socket' error.   

                    The setup is for no local users at all,  all are virtual domains 
and users. 
                   except for postmaster ( thats me, but I am not very busy at the 
moment ).  I have
                   run out of ideas ( the building isn't high enough to make dropping 
the PC out of
                   the window awefully satisfying :-) ) - anyone else got any ideas?
