[Gllug] qmail

[Emil Vaughan]

qmail doesn't have a web admin frontend. You are using something like vpopmail
I think.

You get this message if the domain you are sending to is not in
/var/qmail/control/rcpthosts.

I administer some qmail boxes so I can try to help. If you haven't fixed it
yet, please could you give exact message it get from qmail, and also relevant
bits of your qmail control files (e.g. with the qmail-control command).

Something has gone very wrong with either my QMail config for DNS as my
box is no longer accepting mail for any of the domains it hosts. The dns
still works. i.e. nslookup <domainname> from work still comes back with
the correct IP address.

When sending a mail to one fo the valid recipients I get :-

... while talking to mail.foobar.com.:
>>> RCPT To:<baileyj at foobar.com>
<<< 553 sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts(#5.7.1)
550 5.1.1 <baileyj at foobar.com>... User unknown

I belive that user baileyj exists as I created him user qmail web admin
frontend.

Any help greatfully received.

James
