Check for an alias list that contains multiple paths to Maildirs where one (or more) of the Maildirs(accounts) do not exist.
qmail-local see's the missing Maildir as a temporary error, stops delivery to the list and schedules it for delivery again. And it will run into the same time on each subsequent delivery. THis has the result of deliverying "multiple copies" to the first users in the alias list. Instead, use forwards inside a list instead of paths to the Maildir Ken Jones On Friday 06 September 2002 01:05 pm, Krista Smith wrote: > I seem to be having difficulties accessing the archives so I apologize if > this has been a recent thread. > > -vpopmail 5.3.6- > > I've had virtual domains on a new server for several months.
