Hi all,
 
Following up from my last email, some of you have suggested I check the mail logs... however there are no log entries for successful deliveries, only errors and bounces.  The thing is, the internet mail that didn't go through are NOT bounced (?!?!?)
 
From my understanding of qmail, if my mail server is mymailserver.mydomain.com, a delivery to [EMAIL PROTECTED] is local and goes to qmail-inject, while a delivery to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (a virtual domain) is NOT local and therefore a mail coming from the local machine to this address would be treated the same as a mail coming from the internet to this address, yes?  I mean, mydomain.com is not local to qmail. (??)
 
So, if my understanding is correct, it's all the more baffling why a mail from the local machine to [EMAIL PROTECTED] goes through beautifully, while mail from the internet doesn't go through, doesn't get bounced, and doesn't show up on the mail log.  Since the mail doesn't get bounced, it must be in the queue, right?  Well, no... :P  It's not in the qmail queue either.
 
This is weird... qmail works perfectly for outgoing mail... so qmail works.  Sending mail to a virtual domain from the same machine works... can retrieve from pop3... so vchkpw works.  Yet internet mail doesn't come through.  doh!
 
:)
