thanks Chris
the mails have ended up in /home/neil/Mailbox or ~neil/Mailbox (these mean
the same?) like you said
I was being quite thick - pine looks at /var/spool/mail/~user and I have
screwed my links up because i didnt understand what ~user meant
so is ther meant to be a /var /qmail/user directory and is it meant to have
anything in it, or did I just dream that!
so now, I have removed sendmail and binmail - but i need a mailer instead of
/bin/mail - can I link that to pine?
which start up script do I add csh -cf '/var/qmail/rc &'
to? and doesnt it need something to shut it down?
so now pop works and internal to external mail works, but I am lacking
working smtp stuff.
I have 5 qmail processes:
qmails 926 0.0 1.2 1140 396 pts/0 S 01:24 0:00 qmail-send
qmaill 927 0.0 1.3 1112 424 pts/0 S 01:24 0:00 splogger
qmail
root 928 0.0 1.1 1100 340 pts/0 S 01:24 0:00 qmail-lspawn
./Ma
qmailr 929 0.0 1.1 1100 356 pts/0 S 01:24 0:00 qmail-rspawn
qmailq 930 0.0 1.1 1092 352 pts/0 S 01:24 0:00 qmail-clean
I can telnet to 127.0.0.1 and follow the instructions in part 1 of
test.recieve but the mail doesnt get to the mailboxes
thanks for the help
