Well, I created a queuelifetime file and gave it a value of 86400 seconds (1 day). I then ran 'qmail-showctl' and found that the queue lifetime has changed to the value of the queuelifetime file. However, when I look at the defaultdomain file it has youremaildirect.com as you had indicated. However, the following files have mail.youremaildirect.com in them:
/var/qmail/control/locals /var/qmail/control/me /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts Could this be where the problem is coming from? I am thinking back on when I installed the toaster and it instructed me to run the following command: # on the next line replace "full.hostname" with the hostname of your mail server ./config-fast full.hostname Am I suppose to put just the domainname here...? This is where I put mail.youremaildirect.com (host.domainname)... What files did the config-fast alter in case I need to make a change?
