RE: Can't understand some files in /var/qmail/control directory ??
George: "/var/qmail/control" directory contains control files. That is the best explanation. They control the operation and behavior of qmail. "defaultdomain" control file is used to argument any email address in the message that are not recognized as being proper [EMAIL PROTECTED] format. "defaultdomain" is most often used when sending mail messages to local users on the same mail server. "local" The local control file is used to specify mail addresses that qmail should consider to be local addresses to the mail server. "me" This control file is the most important control file in qmail. Qmail will not run if the "me" control file is not present. The value defined in "me" control file is used as the default value for many of the other control files if they are not present. Most of the above description is from "Running Qmail" by Richard Blum. If you are just getting started, I suggest that you read this book. I hope it helps.
