Hi,

I've been running qmail for a while and had relaying controlled using 
tcprules to allow my cable modem IP address to relay (via /etc/tcp.smtp --> 
tcp.smtp.cdb). I'm going to be travelling and will be dialing thru an ISP so 
I need to use relay-ctrl so I can send mail.

My qmail installation was done using "Life with qmail" 
<http://web.infoave.net/~dsill/lwq.html> and my startup script is exactly 
what is listed there in section 2.8.2.1. I added to that script to start 
qmail-popup, qmail-pop3d like this:

     tcpserver -v -R 0 pop3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup FQDN \
         /bin/checkpassword /usr/sbin/relay-ctrl-allow 
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir 2>&1 | \
         /var/qmail/bin/splogger pop3d &


I installed relay-ctrl 2.5 per the instructions.

My IP address gets logged to /var/spool/relay-ctrl as expected.

relay-ctrl-age gets run by cron every minute and updates /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb. 
A dump (using cdbdump) of this file shows that my IP address is included in 
the cdb file.

qmail-smtpd gets started by tcpserver and passes (among other things) 
/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb in its script by supervise.

I get the standard '553 sorry' message about not relaying.

Any ideas?

Adam
