This is quite normal! That is because the main Function has Return Type void.

symlink...
from /home/username/Mailbox to /var/spool/mail/username
for eg.

Hi People!
I was running the following Perl Script for Stress Test qmail:
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
use Thread;
my $addr = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"; # change to desired mail address!!
my $var1 = 100;
my $count = 0;
for(my $a=0; $a<10; $a++)
{
my $ref = new Thread \&sendit;
lock &send
looks like a Firewall Problem. :-)

Just open Port 25 TCP (for SMTP) and Port 110 (if you are using POP3) on
your Firewall.

No, it hasn't a Mail Header in it.

Sorry! I forgot to right down it worked fine when sending about 100 Messages.

Hi again!
I'm running qmail with big concurrency and big todo patch under Solaris
7 on a mirrored Disk.
It's horrible slow and sometimes there is a Message while sending Mail:
"451 qq trouble creating files in queue(#4.3.0)"
Possible Bottlenecks could be the semaphore Mechanism or the Solaris
File

Just go into the affected Directories and delete those lock Files manually.
Because UFS Solaris is a bit laggy in I/O this Problem occurs when you
stop and start your qmail Programs too fast!

Hi, I'm running qmail on Solaris 7 (SUN Netra T1) and I am trying to
send out 500.000 e-Mails for Testing.
I setup a Remote Concurrency of 400 and have queue Directory Split + Big
Todo Server Patches.
Why are there just average of 4 concurrent qmail-remote Processes ?
How to improve it ?

Someone knows why I get fatal: data 451 qq write error or disk full

It comes after different Message Counts when sending via SMTP.
I think there is an Error in that qmail-smtpd. Any Solutions ?
Never seen that on Linux btw.

You know when qmail receives a Bounce it reinjects the Message in the
queue and then the queue is rescanned.
But what happens when there is a Delivery Failure and not a Bounce ?
