I have installed qmail-1.03.
I am able to send and receive mails locally.
However, I am not able to send or receive mails from anywhere else.
My control files are as follows:
defaultdomain:
king.ac.uk
helohost:
bob.king.ac.uk
locals:
localhost
r341-02.king.ac.uk
me:
r341-02.king.ac.uk
plusdomain:
ac.uk
rcpthosts:
king.ac.uk
brunel.ac.uk
vsnl.net.in
hotmail.com
ernet.in
ac.uk
edu
smtproutes:
:bob.king.ac.uk
-------------------
I have the following environment variables set for user chitta:
setenv MAILDIR .qmail
setenv MAILHOST king.ac.uk
setenv MAILUSER c.mandal
setenv QMAILINJECT f
-------------------
The following lines are present in my /etc/inetd.conf:
linuxconf stream tcp wait root /bin/linuxconf linuxconf --http
smtp stream tcp nowait qmaild /usr/sbin/tcpd /var/qmail/bin/tcp-env
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd
qmqp stream tcp nowait qmaild /usr/sbin/tcpd /var/qmail/bin/tcp-env
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-qmqpd
pop3 stream tcp nowait root /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup qmail-popup r341-02.king.ac.uk
/bin/checkpassword /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir
-------------------
I would like my linux box to be able to directly connect to any other host
willing to accept connections (including my mailhost).
I would also like to receive mail directly from a number of other host trying
to connect to my m/c (including my bob, which is unlikely, and so I shall have
to use pop mail).
I really need some help to get qmail working properly on my m/c.
Thanks,
Chitta
