mail stuck in qmail queue

[Geoff]

After setting up tmda, I'm having problems and I think it relates more to how qmail is handling the .qmail file rather than tmda.  I've had qmail running on this machine for a couple of years now without a problem, but when I try to include the tmda-filter command in the .qmail file, all the mail sent to my user account gets left in qmail's mail queue.  No information is made in the ~/.tmda/logs/debug (or any other log file), so I don't think it even makes it to the tmda-filter program.  I've read the FAQ's and have been searching the mail archives without any luck; any assistance is greatly appreciated.   Here is some basic OS and installation information :   tmda-keygen -V : TMDA/0.81 "Swaps" (Python/2.2.3 on freebsd-4.0-RELEASE-i386) Installation Type : tarball from tmda.net MTA Type : qmail (not procmail or maildrop)   Here is how my tmda is set up (for user gjukema):   ~/.qmail :      |preline /usr/local/tmda-0.81/bin/tmda-filter     ./Maildir/ ~/.qmail-default (symlink to .qmail)   ~/.tmda/config :     # qmail is default, but let's specify it anyway     MAIL_TRANSFER_AGENT = "qmail"     CONFIRM_APPEND = os.path.expanduser("~/.tmda/lists/confirmed")     LOGFILE_DEBUG = os.path.expanduser("~/.tmda/logs/debug")     LOGFILE_INCOMING = os.path.expanduser("~/.tmda/logs/incoming")     LOGFILE_OUTGOING = os.path.expanduser("~/.tmda/logs/outgoing")   ~/.tmda/filters/incoming     from [EMAIL PROTECTED] confirm   ~/.tmda/filters/outgoing     from [EMAIL PROTECTED] bare     **** After sending mail (from [EMAIL PROTECTED]) to the user setup here ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), the mail remains in the qmail queue : EG: qmail-qread :     29 Jul 2003 06:25:31 GMT  #1024116  1641  <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>             local   [EMAIL PROTECTED] Once I remove the tmda-filter line in ~/gjukema/.qmail, qmail starts delivering the mail to the ./Maildir/.    I've tested the incoming filter file using :     /usr/local/tmda-0.81/bin/tmda-filter -M [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]   and get the following output (which looks good to me) : Checking /home/gjukema/.tmda/filters/incoming     ---------------------------------------------     To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]     From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]     ---------------------------------------------     MATCH: from [EMAIL PROTECTED] confirm   Thanks in advance for any insight, Geoff   PS. tmda is *exactly* what I've been after for some time - I can't wait to have it running!
