I've hacked qmail-getpw to get Maildir locations from an external database. It worked fine for a while, but recently it's stopped delivery, giving 5.1.1 errors. It's still calling the qmail-getpw program, as I've changed it to print out debug messages, and it's returning sucess (and the correct output, and the maildirectory is owned by the right people etc). root@willow:/var/qmail/queue# id mailuser uid=143(mailuser) gid=143(mailuser) groups=143(mailuser) root@willow:/var/qmail/queue# qmail-getpw jplooney jplooney143143/home/0000/00/7c root@willow:/var/qmail/queue# ls -l /home/0000/00/7c total 8 drwx------ 7 mailuser mailuser 4096 Mar 3 17:20 Maildir drwxr-x--- 2 mailuser mailuser 4096 Feb 28 16:04 lists root@willow:/var/qmail/queue# ls -l /home/0000/00/7c/Maildir/ total 16 -rw-r--r-- 1 mailuser mailuser 15 Mar 6 14:22 courierimapuiddb drwx------ 2 mailuser mailuser 4096 Mar 6 14:22 cur drwx------ 2 mailuser mailuser 4096 Mar 6 14:20 new drwx------ 2 mailuser mailuser 4096 Mar 6 14:34 tmp What else can cause qmail-lspawn to get confused ?
