I appear to have duplicated this error, and can add a bit more
information to it.
The error occurs when the directory that vdelivermail is being asked
to deliver to contains a symlink.
For instance, I encountered the following problem:
2001-10-27 01:06:25.232087500 starting delivery 24418: msg 346280 to
local [EMAIL PROTECTED]
2001-10-27 01:06:25.232097500 status: local 1/10 remote 0/20
2001-10-27 01:06:25.265759500 delivery 24418: failure:
can_not_open_new_email_file_errno=2_file=/home/vpopmail/domains/iyago.com/nkatztmp/1004159185.4457.bigtime,S=759/system_error/
As a result of a somewhat rushed system upgrade, /home/vpopmail is
actually a symlink to /project/vpopmail. The original
~vpopmail/domains/iyago.com/.qmail-default file read:
| /home/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' /home/vpopmail/domains/iyago.com/nkatz
Changing the line to read:
| /project/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' /project/vpopmail/domains/iyago.com/nkatz
...appears to have resolved the problem. Why this would be so is
anyone's guess, but I can re-create the problem just by changing the
directory back to /home/vpopmail...
