Re: dns for qmail only??

My problem is that the old machine is still the DNS for my domain. When it sends status messages to me, it, I'm guessing, checks DNS and gets the public IP of the new box, can't connect to it from behind the firewall (both boxes are 192. ), so it sends it to the secondary MX record, which is my old ISP. I then get it via getmail cron job, but I'd like for it to deliver internally. I've changed the /etc/hosts to point to the 192. address, but qmail must not look at that. How can I have DNS giving out the public IP for the world, yet tell qmail the 192. addr?? What DNS server are you running? -- rjbs PGP signature

Re: qmail, Maildir, IMAP, and MS Outlook

We have no trouble with Outlook Express and Courier, and I believe Outlook uses the same mail subsystem as Outlook Express IF the former is in internet mail mode, and not MAPI (I think they call that corporate/workgroup mode). MAPI is an abomination anyway. At least that was true of Outlook when last I dealt with it, which I'm happy to say was about 18 months ago. That's true for Outlook 2000, yes. Outlook 2002 is happy to run IMAP -and- MAPI, so I've switched to that at work. Sadly, we use the abomination. -- rjbs PGP signature

You will go much further in life (or at least on mailing lists) if you learn that typing two keys (for example 't' and 'o') is only trivially more time-consuming than typing one (for example, '2'), but makes your English look far, far more pleasant. It also shows your audience that you care about what you are writing. I have some teknical questions that are clearly DNS related is it o.k if i post those questions here? or does somebody knows about a good DNS mailing list? I think you should post those to the cr.yp.to DNS list, which is found at this server.

Re: SMTP down

I think you need to take a minute and decide if you really want to run qmail, rather than just use someone else's mail server. This may be a very simple problem, and you just need to do some simple things to figure it out. Run `ps -ax` and see if qmail-smtpd is running. If not, restart it and consider running it under daemontools. -- rjbs PGP signature
Re: courier-imapd, folders and delivery

So how do I accomplish the task of delivering mail to specific IMAP folders using procmail (or some other equivalent tool; I only need to filter for mailinglists, nothing advanced)? There is a courier-imap mailing list! Join it! In the meantime, it's pretty simple. Set $MAILDIR and $DEFAULT to $HOME/Maildir/ Then, :0 * From:.*[EMAIL PROTECTED] .satan/ Will write messages to the Maildir used for that folder under a default Courier install. -- rjbs PGP signature
