okee dokee. i'm having quite a time trying to get qmail to work right.
for a while i was at least able to send mail from my box [running
openbsd2.8] and receive it on my box, or send mail from it, and
receive elsewhere, but not send from elsewhere and receive on it.
now i can't send or receive anything, and i'm not sure what I did to
change that. it looks like all the appropriate apps are running [4
or so, i think the documentation said], but nothing is getting
delivered. i occassionally get an email bounced back if i send from
elsewhere saying 'couldnt deliver for 7 days'.
i just found the qmail/queue/mess folder, and it looks like there's a
bunch of mail in there that's been waiting to be delivered for ages
[probably around 2 weeks or more].
the only thing i knew to check was rcpthosts, and it's got localhost
and the domain of my box listed there.
i followed all the instructions best i could, moved around mailboxes
and such. the only thing that i couldn't do had to do with removing
sendmail, since something it told me to move just wasn't there.
any help anybody could give me would be greatly appreciated.
