My solution to not having to use user%virtualdomain.com was to only offer web-based email. I use Squirrel-Mail which I have modified the php to determine how to login and which %virtualdomain to use based on the domain they typed to get there. So basically every user types webmail.virtualdomai

Hi, Sorry to jump in on this discussion... My rcpthosts file contains all the 'hosts' I receive mail for (as yours does) but my locals file only contains the 'real' machine names - ie. mail that goes to real users, rather than virtual ones. Don't know if that'll help, but it's a difference whic

What is the exact entry you've got in control/rcpthosts and control/locals? Are you intending to control this domain through qmailadmin or not? If you want to use qmailadmin/vpopmail to control that domain, you need to remove it from control/rcpthosts and control/locals and run ~vpopmail/bin/vadd

There is a better solution. Use sendmail or use /etc/passwd and qmail. I can justify using an IP address per domain because I actually host the websites and mail of the domains that I take care of. That way, I can keep everything with 1 IP address and it works great. I really do not at all lik
