I give up. Why didn't you bother reading the blinking bold text
underneath that statement?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Would you please be so kind to reread the above line. And you might want
to give a second thought to the meaning of the words "at first glance"
and "appeared".
(Maybe you'd also like to look them up in a dictionary.)

To answer in a bit more detail -- percenthack is indeed turned off if
the file isn't there. If percenthack is turned off, the message is
accepted for delivery to user "relaytest%abuse.net". It's likely that
you have no such user on your system; if so, the message will be
bounced. If you do have such a user, it will be delivered to that
user. In no case, however, will it be relayed to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] (if percenthack is off).
What's the very next line of results say? In the versions I've seen,
the very next line is even more explanation that it won't know if
relaying is going on until the relayed message arrives.

Better you read the abuse net's FAQ for the test. Qmail is discarding it
later, so relay checkers like the one from ORBS that check wether the mail
gets really delivered won't put you on the Open Relay List. Abuse.net's
checker doesn't do this.

Several people already do this, and Dan has not voiced any objections that

You're right. Debian has even in section non-free qmail-src binary package
(containing qmail sources) with build-qmail script for automatic binary package
(containg compiled qmail distribution ) provided.

No. If you had, you wouldn't have a problem.
But this isn't enough information for us to make a definitive diagnosis.
Try posting the contents of /etc/rc.d/init.d/qmail _exactly_ -- don't
retype it, use copy & paste or something.
Also, describe _exactly_ how you have installed and configured
daemontools and qmail. And show us the contents of your service directories
while you're at it, with ownerships and permissions.

Try posting on a relevant mailing list. Bruce has his "rpms" mailing list
and his "bgware" mailing list, as well as relay-ctrl. Try asking on one
of those. You can find the list subscription addresses by visiting his

If your default delivery is "./Maildir/" and a local user doesn't have a
Maildir, and doesn't have a .qmail file with some other delivery instruction
in it, qmail will already do this.
However, to prevent them from receiving mail at all, regardless of what they
put in a .qmail file, read the manpage for qmail-pw2u. Pay particular
attention to the part about the file "exclude".

Who knows? You haven't said what your problem is, and what the logs indicate.

You're being a bit too judicious with your logs. The other lines
associated with this delivery would be handy. How do we know which
domain this delivery is talking about?

Have you sent a HUP to qmail-send since changing this file?
Regards.
Hi,
This is a very confusing thing I am trying to accomplish, but for
reasons outside of my control it must be done. I have a main domain name
of company..com in locals. I have a company.fi:alias-companyfi line in
virtualdomains. The alias file looks like this:
| forward ${DEFAULT}@company.com
All mail coming to company.fi should be a full equivalent to all
[EMAIL PROTECTED] addresses and mailalternateaddress in the ldap entries.
It is currently working fine, with one problem. One person needs to not
have his incoming mail rewritten to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I am controlling
the setting of his outgoing address to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with sendmail at
the firewall, but to not change the incoming address is what I need help
with. I tried to make an alias called .alias-companyfi-user and put
&[EMAIL PROTECTED], then put mailalternateaddress: [EMAIL PROTECTED] in his
ldap entry, but the message looped and died.
Any ideas??
Thanks,
Mike

Since I went and suggested asking John Levine to add a link for qmail
users when relay test 6 is failed, I decided I might as well ask him
myself. I whipped up a quick web page at http://meehan.org/qmail.html
that I've asked John to check out. Feedback from all of you would be
great, too.

looks like you didn't get the point. AMaViS is worse than Windoze when it
comes to resource eating... Using it with sendmail will make you simply
want exchange 2000 with mcafee mailscan... a terrible nightmare.

Two sure ways to tell a sexy male; the first is, he has
a bad memory. I forgot the second.
Qmail with Vpopmail
We are currently transitining from Sendmail to Qmail for our main mail
server.
So we have some users on this new server, and the rest on the old
server. Our relays
point to the old server and aliases directs qmail users mail to the
Qmail server.
Problem is: when Qmail users send mail to users on the old servers it
trys to deliver
it locally and when the user and dumps it in postmaster mailbox. All
worked fine as of yesterday but now
it does not work. The domain is not in /var/qmail/locals and my mx
records look fine.
Any ideas ?
Here is the error from the maillog, user is not in the qmail server but
try to delive it anyway ..

Hi,
I am using qmail 1.03 + ezmlm 0.53 with ezmlm-idx 0.40 on a RedHat 6.1
machine. What i like to know is how can i moderate the subject line
when ezmlm sends a responce back, say for example to a help request.
The default that is sent is 'ezmlm response', i would like to change that
that can reflect the name of the list.
How can this be done?
