Hi: Here's a brief description of my problem.
I had Qmail running smooth with tcpserver, qmail-pop3d, daemontools, and
all the stuff explained in Life W/Qmail.
The box is OpenBSD 2.9-Stable.
I use obviously $HOME/Maildir
The mail domain is: megadeth.dnsalias.com
But I have a rcpthost:
-------------------------------
cat /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts
megadeth.dnsalias.com
marconcini.com.ar
-------------------------------
cat me
megadeth.dnsalias.com
-------------------------------
cat defaultdomain
dnsalias.com
-------------------------------
cat defaultdelivery
./Maildir/
Etc... Everything WAS working... and lifewithqmail is excellent.
It was working very very smooth. (so if you are reading this and don't
know whether to switch from sendmail, don't hesitate! Qmail is by far,
much better).
However, I had a web based form (using php mail() function) that sent an
email for me at my Qmail. (The webserver is on the same box w/Qmail, so
its localhost)
Yesterday I found out that emails are not reaching my Maildir and I
though it was a PHP Problem. But let me expose some tests and logs.
A) If I send and email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] from internet (that is
any mail server) it works. I got the email in seconds. (I am subscribed
to 4 mailing lists and while I type this, emails from those are coming
and coming)
B) If I send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] from localhost (that is,
using either the PHP form or telnet localhost) it won't work.
Check this:
bash-2.05$ telnet localhost 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 megadeth.dnsalias.com ESMTP
helo marconcini.com.ar
250 megadeth.dnsalias.com
mail from [EMAIL PROTECTED]
250 ok
rcpt to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
250 ok
data
354 go ahead
hello.
.
250 ok 997103556 qp 27448
quit
221 megadeth.dnsalias.com
The mail never arrives. (If I do the same for
[EMAIL PROTECTED] , which is the master domain, the same
happens)
The log: /var/mail/qmail/current for the above was
@400000003b6e97ae02acce8c starting delivery 68: msg 165132 to local
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
@400000003b6e97ae02b62cfc status: local 1/10 remote 0/20
@400000003b6e97ae0890600c delivery 68: success: did_1+0+0/
@400000003b6e97ae09840324 status: local 0/10 remote 0/20
@400000003b6e97ae099bbd5c end msg 165132
But the mail isn't there. There are 0 msg in the queue according to
qmail tools.
Even this user (martin) received mail from root and none is coming
through that alias.
Qmail is started properly using tcpserver and supervise is running.
One thing: IT WAS WORKING. I can assure that. It worked for the last
three months.
The question is what could have changed? Where can I look? More logs?
Tests?
I really don't remember changing anything...
Check this log:
/var/mail/mailog (php was configured to use /usr/bin/sendmail which is a
link according to lifewithqmail so I suppose Qmail's sendmail logs here)

????????? A hand will be appreciated. The archives showed no clear
results, since trying Local Delivery Not Working brings up many
results...
Thanks in advance for reading this far.
