Hi all,

I have installed qmail, sqwebmail, vpopmail, vqsignup.
My machine name is "mail.metta.lk"

The installation has been done on a Redhat 7.0 
and sqwebmail is in the dir /home/vpopmail/
I have generated the domain name  "metta.lk" in the dir below using the
given program.

/home/vpopmail/domains/metta.lk/

I can login to the webserver, 
create accounts on the server, 
and send mail from the server.

But the server does not deliver mail to the virtual domain "metta.lk"
The MX has been set correctly in the dns and mail is going to
mail.metta.lk but returned. see message below.

I have a feeling that the conflict is because the domain name "metta.lk" 
and the virtual domain name "metta.lk" is the same,
and I have not told qmail correctly that it should
deliver incoming mail addressed to "metta.lk"  to a virtual domain,
it instead tries to deliver that mail to itself.

The contents of /var/qmail/control is as follows:
-------------------------------------------------
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root           11 Nov 28 11:45 defaultdelivery
./Maildir/
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root            9 Nov 28 11:34 defaultdomain

metta.lk:metta.lk
-rw-------    1 root     root            0 Dec  8 18:33 virtualdomains.lock

I suspect the virtualdomains incorrect.
below is the returned message.

Your advice is much appriciated
