my .forward don't work,what can I do?
I tested the qmail delivery by: echo to: user | /var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject then I find a queue in ~user/Maildir/new/ when I add a .forward file under ~user with content: someone@localhost and do the delivery test again : echo to: user | /var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject it still have a queue inside ~user/Maildir/new and I go to ~someone/Maildir/new, there are nothing. is it mean that my dot-forward don't work? how can I check the what happen to dot-forward package, any error message it will generate after make setup check? or how to use the ./instcheck ? Thanks a lot~

I don't have any error message I still can't forward the message by dot-forward What do your logs say? I have tried and persisted to point out that you don't need .forward, but since you obviously aren't taking the hint, tail -f /var/log/qmail/send/current, send a test message, and tell us what it says. in my .qmail file: |dot-forward .forward ./Maildir/ Just for the fun of it, try putting /var/qmail/bin/dot-forward. Oh, what the hell. While you're at it, ls -l /var/qmail/bin/dot-forward and give us the output. -- Customer: I'm running Windows '98 Tech: Yes. Customer: My computer isn't working now.
