Greetings:
I have installed qmail and vpopmail on a dedicated server. The hostname is
inloc.inloc.com and there are 5 IP's on this machine. I've registered a domain name
(ducaniveaux.com) to one of them, using a host-provided program called 'spectro', and
I want to do virtual subhosting under it.
I receive mail as expected in the Maildir,
/home/vpopmail/domains/ducaniveaux.com/postmaster/Maildir/new, but I can't retrieve
it; I get a:
Connection reset by remote side (10054) message.
Is it perhaps because I don't have the DNS MX records set up correctly? There is no
'named.hosts' file on my machine. Because this is a dedicated server, perhaps they are
handling this elsewhere.
Moreover, when I installed qmail, I got the following message:
---
Checking local IP addresses:
127.0.0.1: Adding localhost to control/locals...
216.71.84.136: Adding inloc.inloc.com to control/locals...
64.33.89.34: PTR lookup failed. I assume this address has no DNS name.
64.33.89.35: PTR lookup failed. I assume this address has no DNS name.

64.33.89.71: PTR lookup failed. I assume this address has no DNS name.
64.33.89.72: PTR lookup failed. I assume this address has no DNS name.

64.33.89.36 is the IP assigned to ducaniveaux.com. I used vadddomain and vadduser to
add the ducaniveaux.com domain and [EMAIL PROTECTED] user. vpopmail added
'ducaniveaux.com:ducaniveaux.com' to /var/qmail/control/virtualdomains (it is not in
/locals).
My control/defaultdelivery is set to ./Maildir/
Here's the relevant part of my qmail startup script:
#!/bin/sh
PATH=/var/qmail/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin
export PATH
case "$1" in
start)
echo -n "Starting qmail: svscan"
tcpserver -H -R 0 pop-3 \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup inloc.inloc.com \
/home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir &
cd /var/qmail/supervise
env - PATH="$PATH" svscan &
echo $! > /var/run/svscan.pid
echo "."
;;
stop)
I believe 'pop-3' is right; here's what's in services:
pop-3 110/tcp # PostOffice V.3
pop 110/tcp # PostOffice V.3
I haven't edited /etc/inetd.conf.
Anything else? :�)
Thanks for your help.
