Hi,
OK - thanks for the reply - but it still is not working even with the -R
option - the -M gives an error - what version of the tcpserver is that -
I am using ucspi-tcp-0.84??
Also you mentioned DNS - what should the MX records look like:
I have:
IN MX 15 <Service provider mail server>
IN MX 10 <Secondary mail server>
IN MX 5 <Problem main mail server>
also my pop3 line looks like such:
tcpserver -R -t5 0 110 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup <main mail server>
/usr/bin/checkpassowrd /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir &
Any suggestions??

Who said anything about -M? I mentioned -R and -H.

Ignore MX records; they're irrelevant for POP3.
Can your mail server resolve PTR records for the IP addresses the
POP3 clients connect from? tcpserver is going to try to resolve
the name of the connecting client so that it can set TCPREMOTEHOST.
30s delays are indicative of DNS problems.

That matches what is in /var/qmail/doc/FAQ, so I expect it is OK.

Not really, only needed when having a '|' in the beginning if I remember
correctly what has been stated in some discussion here before. Anyway, I
don't use the ampersand and it works as it should.

i have the domain yourmom.org pointed to my box. I want it to be set up as a
virtual domain.
i added the line [EMAIL PROTECTED]:yourmom
to /var/qmail/control/virtualdomains
and then created a user named yourmom.
in /home/yourmom/ i put a file called .qmail-testguy
then killall -HUP qmail-send
but when i send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
i get:
delivery 37: failure: Sorry,_no_mailbox_here_by_that_name._
What am i doing wrong? am I supposed to add a user named testguy-yourmom and
give him a Mailbox? I thought testguy-yourmom's mailbox would be handled by
/home/yourmom/.qmail-testguy..or am I screwing up by leaving .qmail-testguy
empty?
thanks

This line should read:
yourmom.org:yourmom
you also need to put yourmom.org in rcpthosts

You need an email address in .qmail-testguy if you want it to forward. if
you don't have that there, qmail looks for a system user named testguy.

You should not use shell pipelines in the run scripts.

I've been looking through repositories of OPEN SOURCE software
looking for a Mail User Agent for Unix machines that runs natively
in a Unix XWindow environment. I can't seem to find one that allows
the usage of Qmail's Maildirs. Does anyone know of one that is
Open Source ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi all,
I can say qmail to retry to send all of its queued mail by giving a ALRM
signal to qmail-send. But is there any way to say qmail to retrieve queued
mail from other SMTP server? I know it is by fetchmail. But I need qmail
solution.
Any help?
Sifat.
