Ihave recently installed qmail Virtual POP on my Linux Red Hat 7.2. My "master" domain works great, I recently added a new domain and I can send mail but cannot rec using new domain. Pretty much exhausted all resources and can not figure out. Can someone help?


Thanks
 
What happens when you try to send a message to that domain? Does it 'do nothing' or does it bounce back? Have you checked your log files? Does it show attempted delivery? Can you verify your password on that domain through POP3? Using vpopmail from Inter7? What version?
 
try to telnet to the pop3 port

telnet localhost pop3
user username --> you should get "+OK" here
pass passw --> same here: "+OK"
type in "list" --> this would at least tell you taht there are no mails

If this is successfull, then the mail box is active. If not, eighter the pop3 service is not running, or it's not installed correctly.

Hope this helps

oh yeah,

username should be the full e-mail address of that user.

I run mine on debian. to add virtual domains and users I do the following:

vadddomain test.virtual.com
vadduser rehuel@test.virtual.com passw

This user is created and can send and receive mail as long as the master (default) domain is working.

good luck
