Ok, I took your advice and instead switched each users .qmail file (that did not have one setup) to utilize the maildrop command that Qmailadmin enables once "Spam Detection" is checked. This seems to work.
It's |/var/qmail/bin/preline /usr/bin/maildrop /etc/mailfilter My customers use Qmailadmin to administer their email boxes. For some reason, when they create an account using Qmailadmin, unless they "Enable Spam Detection" a .qmail file is NOT created. Is this normal behavior from what you know of it? I suppose this might be the wrong list, but again, Qmailadmin's behavior does not explain why after the upgrade Vpopmail has a problem delivering mail. I see about 11,000 messages in the qmail queue at the moment. None of them are being delivered. Users have messages backed up in their /Maildir/tmp folder from several days ago. qmailctl flush does not force the delivery of all these items. The actual setup looks like this: netqmail-1.05, qmail-scanner-2.01-st, vpopmail 5.4.26 - all compiled from Gentoo ebuilds. The vpopmail ebuild I sort of made by hand, so as much as possible I investigate the ebuilds carefully for strange/rogue settings and such. As I stated before, things were working fine with vpopmail 5.4.17 since July without a hitch. I just have to confess that my guru-ness with vpopmail is limited, so this problem is a bit more elusive than my own abilities can track. At any rate, any thoughts would be helpful. > On Jan 2, 2008, at 1:29 AM, Matthew Goodman wrote: >> ---.qmail file for users without any maildrop rules to run--- >> >> |/var/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail /var/vpopmail/domains/%d/%u/Maildir > > > No!
