that makes sense...but what about the hundreds of users that had nothing
change...
right now [EMAIL PROTECTED] goes to /home/bsmoke/Maildir
and [EMAIL PROTECTED] goest to /home/bsmoke/Maildir
because all of these domains are in /var/qmail/control/locals
so 99% of all the other users are working correctly...
is this a situation where if i made that domain a virtual domain
instead...and made an alias-ses1
then put in /home/ses1 a .qmail-ses1-swright containing stwright
in order for this to continue working for everyone else, i would have to
make .qmail-ses1- files for everyone on that domain..wouldn't I?
could i just have a /home/swright folder with a .qmail file that checks what
domain it is coming from, then forward that way?
(like if [EMAIL PROTECTED], forward to stwright)
else if [EMAIL PROTECTED], forward to srwright)
i don't know what the actual working of the file would be...but would that
work...or is it not possible?

The good news is, it's easy to fix. The bad news is, you have probably
set up your virtual domains and aliases incorrectly for your situation.
For each of the domains that you forward for, you should have an entry
in rcpthosts and virtualdomains.
In virtualdomains you should use a *unique* alias for each domain,
such as:
ses1.dsc.k12.ar.us:alias-ses1
des1.dsc.k12.ar.us:alias-des1
Then, in the alias home directory, you create a file called
.qmail-ses1-swright to handle forwarding for [EMAIL PROTECTED]
and create a file called .qmail-des1-swright to handle forwarding for
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Note that -ses1 and -des1 are now part of the alias file names?
