While there are several ways to rename a domain, which is essentially what is being done here, the best question to ask one's self before beginning this very manual process, is if you NEED to, and if you have the experience with your backend database selection, and with qmail. The only time you really NEED to do this is if the domain is hosted on a remote site now, and the users of this system need to be able to email the remote system. If your users of this domain own both domains, and simply want the new domain to 'be their primary', just tell them it's done, and to use the new domain name and leave everything as it is. The instructions above look correct by the way :) - -- /* Matt Brookings <m...@inter7.com> GnuPG Key D9414F70 Software developer Systems technician Inter7 Internet Technologies, Inc.
