What that message means is that the local recipient is not a valid
address. That can happen if the recipient:
- is not a user
- has the UID 0
- doesn't own their home directory
- has a home directory that isn't visible to user qmailp
- has a username containing uppercase characters
- has a username longer than 32 characters
- isn't handled by an alias or catch-all .qmail file in ~alias
A more complete log snippet would have enabled a more useful
response.
