As I have mentioned before, I have 2 toasters, one handles normal emails
for the company and the other handles the opt-in list for our customers.
The opt-in machine has no domains on it and is essentially set up as an
open relay, but kept behind the firewall on the private network and with
port 25 incoming blocked by iptables. This allows me to send out emails
to the list as I want and all bounce-backs are handled by the regular
server. There are no domains set up on this machine at all and tcp.smtp
has a single entry: :allow,RELAYCLIENT="" (don't try this at home kids -
it's a recipe for disaster if you do not do it properly!).
Heres the problem, it still gets a bunch of messages that look like this
in the queue:
Envelope Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Envelope Recipient: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (To Be Delivered)
Date: 27 Jul 2006 02:33:13 -0000
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: failure notice
How do I tell qmail to forward these messages to my regular machine?
Remember, I do not have a domain set up in vpopmail so I cannot use the
vpopmail forwarding.
Is the main mail server also on the private network? If so, you may try
a smtp route which may/may not work. You could also come up with a
recipe to use your /var/qmail/alias/.qmail-postmaster file to send to a
different email account. You should have this file already. I personally
also sym link .qmail-root and .qmail-anonymous to this file to get them
all in the same place.
