What error are you getting from your pop3 client?
Are you allowing connections, as specified in hosts.allow/deny?

Hello,
I setup the qmail on turbolinux4.0 on 2 servers.
I follow the step of "Life with Qmail" setup qmail-pop3d and checkpassword
run the pop-3 by inetd.conf
Thanks, that was it. The firewall was not port forwarding correctly.
I thought that linux's ipchains did that, but one needs another kernel module,
ipmasqadm.
The following 2 commands did the trick:
ipmasqadm portfw -a -P tcp -R 192.168.1.100 25 -L 207.178.203.67 25
ipmasqadm portfw -a -P tcp -L
OK, I think I have my firewall masquerading the firewall external IP port 25
to the qmail box internal IP port 25
I'm getting connection rejects, when I try to telnet to port 25 on the
firewall. This should redirect me to port 25 on the qmail box, right?
I'm not sure that it's the qmail box
I have a sendmail server up already. It's the host for our domain name, so all
mail to that domain goes to it.
To have it forward the mail to the qmail box, shouldn't I just have to change
the MX records to point to the new host with a lower priority number?
eg:
was
sattel.com.IN MX
Can I run the qmail server behind a firewall?
I want to rely on the dns MX records on the firewall to route mail to the
qmail server, which is on an internal LAN, with a non Internet routable
192.168.1 address.
Will this work?, or, do I need to have the qmail server addressable from the
I'm getting this message from my pop3 clients.
Could not login in to mail server.
The server responded:
This user has no $HOME/Maildir
Well, the user does have a Maildir. I can see new mail piling up in
Maildir/new.
It's being started as follows:
supervise /var/lock/qmail-pop3d
This is correct as far as I can tell.

Are there any initscripts packages that are already setup to work with the new
daemontools?
TIA, Bruce.
I can send a message to a remote host using:
echo to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | /var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject
but I cannot do so from a pop3 MUA, netsacpe.
When I try I get a dialog:
Sorry that's not in my list of rtpchosts (#5.7.1)
If I add remote.com to rtpchosts it works, but I should not have to
Never mind, just found:
