Hi all -
I was browsing through the archives for somehting on this, maybe
someon knows off
of the top of their head... (fingers crossed). Here is the problem:
1) Qmail is receiving email, but not delivering.
Here is what caused the problem:
I in-advertantly deleted the /var/qmail directory, so all that was
working is not,
had to re-create.
This is what I have done so far:
whoa! that's bad....

i could go on...but you should see my point
1) recreated the 'assign' file.
2) recreated the 'locals' file.
3) recreated the 'rcpthost' file.
sorry guy,
IANAL or a qmailtoaster expert either, deleting /var/qmail/ killed lots
and lots of stuff (not just the 3 files you have indicated that you
re-created) required for the toaster to work...FUBAR, if you cannot
recover directories and files from a backup (what is a backup?).
i would suggest a re-install is in order. all mails and such are stored
in /home/... so you basically need to run through the current install
instructions again...remembering to edit the appropriate scripts to
match what you have in place already (no goof-ups). i hope you took
precise notes and recorded mysql password and so on. this should repair
the missing application dirs/files and the data (mail) should be
untouched in /home/....AGAIN, PROVIDED YOU INSTALL USING THE EXACT SAME
PARAMETERS USED AT INSTALL...OTHERWISE IT WILL BE START FROM
SCRATCH.(not yelling, just emphasizing) if done correctly, it should work
that is my opinion FWIW.
that seems to be the preferred way you upgrade this beast when it goes
live, as in production, too.
any true "experts" care to chime in?
