Re: [vchkpw] Re: forward not working under vpopmail
I can send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], cause I have that virtualuser in vpopmail. Anyway, I can put any other address and it does not work. Vpopmail just don't want to process dot-qmail files in /home/vpopmail/domains/domain_name directory. I try even vpopmail-5.3.20. Problem is same Ilic Aleksandar SMR qmail doesn't deliver mail to root. SMR You need to put under /var/qmail/alias a .qmail-root file, note that the SMR user root will always fall to your DN, in your case katastrofa.com, with SMR some valid mail address so that all mail sent to root will be delivered to SMR that valid mail address. Otherwise [EMAIL PROTECTED] will not get mail. SMR This is written somehere in the qmail documentation. SMR Hope this helps.

Re: [vchkpw] Re: forward not working under vpopmail
The only thing I would add to this is the following: KEEP ROOT THE HELL OUT OF EVERYTHING! Root is a special user, you should only log in as root under the most extreme circumstances. Create a user name for yourself, assign the rights you need to administer your system to yourself, and leave root out if it. Novell even those idiots at M$Soft get this. NEVER EVER use the account that has *** ALL *** the keys to the kingdom for anything except when aboslutely required, especialy in E-MAIL.

In the case of a virtual domain managed with vpopmail, [EMAIL PROTECTED] doesn't have any special capabilities. There shouldn't be any problem with setting it up and using it as an email account. -- Tom Collins [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi, qmail doesn't deliver mail to root. You need to put under /var/qmail/alias a .qmail-root file, note that the user root will always fall to your DN, in your case katastrofa.com, with some valid mail address so that all mail sent to root will be delivered to that valid mail address.

I confgiure vpopmail like this: ./configure --prefix=/home/vpopmail --enable-auth-logging=y --enable-mysql-logging=y --enable-logging=e --enable-default-domain=katastrofa.com --enable-mysql=y --enable-valias=y --enable-defaultquota=20M I create user admin with pass secret in mysql and put it in vmysql.h. And of course I check this user, and it is working. I grant to that user access to all databases with all privileges create database vpopmail make make install-strip After that, I have no table in DB vpopmail, so I had to create them manually. But never mind. I create domain katastrofa.com and users: flylord, root, test, postmaster, anonymous I start qmail-send, qmail-smtpd and qmail-pop3 with daemontools as it is written in docs, and it is working. I can send mails, I can check and view mails via pop3. Than, I create file /home/vpopmail/domains/katastrofa.com/.qmail-flylord : [EMAIL PROTECTED] and when I send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], forwarding is not working. Just to mention that no dot-qmail file is working. Vpopmail just don't process those files. Thanks in advance Ilic Aleksandar
