How can one determine and specify the IP address used by qmail-remote for
remote mail delivery? It used the default IP for the host instead of the
address for its FQDN.

I am not sure what you mean here by, "without the email data passing through
domain.com." If your host is listed as the mail host for the domain, it will
have to handle it one way or another.
If you have an additional domain that you want to host, say, domain2.com,
you would simply add the domain
ally without requiring a valid local user part of the address or a
.qmail file.

This would definitely be a bug of concern--even sendmail (yoiks!) knows how

Have you checked your tcpserver logs to see what it thinks is going on? If
there is no record of your attempt to connect, it means it is not listening

Which part of qmail? For qmail-remote, you need a patch if you don't want it

It is likely a problem with the email services, and not your machine. I have

Qmail is not very robust when it comes to dealing with errors or unexpected

I had a similar experience, but it wasn't actually a mail bomb, it was a
SPAM attempt. If a spammer thinks that your domain may be a free email
service, they will attempt delivery with an apparently random list of users,
which I believe is extracted from other free email services.

Have you read the INSTALL.mbox file that came with the qmail source? It may

is not root, so it can't change to real uid 0, so the setuid call is

I don't follow you. If you want qmail to act as a mail gateway to the NT

I could be wrong, but by simply adding a domain to rcpthosts and locals will
allow mail to be accepted on multiple domains using /etc/passwd for
authentication. I use vpopmail for virtual domains and it is handled
entirely differently from the locals, which use passwd. It may depend on the

You will likely need to have separate installations of vpopmail to
accomplish this, and you may need to edit the source manually to allow this
functionality. On the brighter side, you may not need to have different
"parent" users since you are supposed to be able to set quotas on a per
account bas
Make sure you are using the correct POP id: username%virtualdomain.com

The main reason for this error is that you are not executing make from the
