I sent this separately to Robert, then realized he wasn't the original
questioner :). From what I noticed, in my locals file all it says is:
localhost
silvertree.org
And any mail addressed to <user>@<sub>.silvertree.org gets delivered as a
local. As an example, I have the following hosts:
tintagel
mordred
arthur
ygraine
and mail sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] still gets delivered to the
qmail box, and tintagel's machine is still being built :). My understanding
is that the entry "silvertree.org" equates to "*.silvertree.org", at least
that's I gleaned from the brief FAQ entry. Of course, I also may not be
understanding his question. That also has to assume the MX entry is correct
for his domain, that all mail goes to that machine.
In my example: silvertree.org IN MX 10 arthur.silvertree.org.
The FAQ I am referencing is:
http://cr.yp.to/qmail/faq/incominghost.html#local
Hope that helps.
Scott
