I'm unclear as to where I am going wrong with setting up my virtual
domain email for each virtual domain. I am using qmail 1.03 on Red
Hat Mandrake 6.0.
My qmail setup seems to be working fine, as I can send and receive email
from anywhere, but I am not so sure I have set up the virtual domain part
correctly. Let's say I have a virtual domain called nature.com on my
server which is named god.com. There is a user named bird who actually
owns the nature.com domain. Bird wants to have his email address on his
web page say "[EMAIL PROTECTED]".. and have that email delivered to him at
his account on "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" I have created a bird account on god.com.
Also, nature.com is functioning fine.
In the virtualdomains file I have added this line:
nature.com:bird
Is this correct? I've noticed that qmail has (during the installation)
created a line in virtualdomains that looks like this:
god.com:god.com
So, I'm wondering if I should put nature.com:nature.com instead? Anyway,
as it is set up now, if someone sends mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], where is it
going? Is it going to the bird account at god.com? I've sent a test
mail, but it didn't arrive at bird's email on god.com. The other strange
thing is, I never received an error message saying the mail didn't reach
bird. I've tried a test by sending mail directly to [EMAIL PROTECTED], and he
did get THAT direct mail, he's just not getting the virtual mail.
What step might I be missing?
Thanks for any help.
