Hello all,
First off, thanks to everyone for the help so far. I am now able to telnet
successfully to port 25 and 110. Y'all rock!
I'm trying to follow Life With Qmail (what a lifesaver) and the instructions
for setting up multiple pop users under one userid. Unfortunately, it's
bouncing messages back saying user unknown. I'm sure this is some lame
config problem of mine, but believe me, I've gone through the docs trying to
figure it out. If I had just one working user as a template, I'm sure I'd be
fine.
Soooo, specifics: one domain I'm hosting on my box is called
branaghgroup.com. I want to make an email user 'barley' lets say so that my
machine will accept mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and allow barley to
retrive mail via pop3.Here's what I did: (pipe in whenever you see something
wrong ;) :
I added a line to control/virtualdomains like this:
branaghgroup.com:branaghgroup-com
I added a line to control/rcpthosts:
LOCALHOST
26-209.196.58.interliant.com
27-209.196.58.interliant.com
28-209.196.58.interliant.com
29-209.196.58.interliant.com
30-209.196.58.interliant.com
branaghgroup.com <----------------(only line I added)
control/locals looks just like above minus the last line.
users/assign, I added:
=branaghgroup-com-barley:popuser:516:516:/var/qmail/popboxes/branaghgroup-co
m/barley:::
...all one line, where 516 is the uid/gid of the user popuser. Strangely,
when I run qmail-newu with this line, it doesn't work, saying:
qmail-newu: fatal: bad format in users/assign
Whats wrong with that entry? I think I had it wrong and want to recompile
the db with the above, but no dice for some reason.
checkpassword finds the user barley just fine. That's not my problem. The
system won't recieve mail for [EMAIL PROTECTED] The log looks like
so:
new msg 896311
info msg 896311: bytes 818 from <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> qp 446 uid
510
starting delivery 12: failure:
Sorry,_no_mailbox_here_by_that_name._(#5.1.1)/
status: local 0/10 remote 0/20
bounce msg 896311 qp 451
end msg 896311
...and then it sends me an error email. So my best guess is that its a
product of users/assign being wrong. Does that seem plausible? Why do you
think qmail-newu doesn't like my entry? Have I done something else stupid
that anyone sees? Help! ;) TIA.
