failure: Sorry,_no_mailbox_here_by_that_name._(#5.1.1)

[jgonsalves]

I am using Centos 5.7 and have built a qmail server I started by using LWQ and configured it to use Maildir, I have installed pop3d and user mail boxes to be located at:
/home/popuser/popboxes/mydomain/user/Maildir now I can connect to the mail box from outlook express and I can send out emails. The MX record is correct the spf record is correct and the RDNS is also correct.

My problem is I cannot receive emails to the account I have setup, if I send email from external accounts they bounce back with 4.4.1 errors in the bounce back, when I send emails internally ( send an email from my account to my account I get this error:

I am afraid that I am probably not going to be a whole lot of help with a specifically qmail issue, but have you consulted the tutorial (downloadable) "Life with Qmail"?

http://www.lifewithqmail.org/

I imagine that there is a mechanism to map the usernames to a valid recipients list. Specifically look at the section titled 3.3. Multiple host names in the Life With Qmail. In particular:

rcpthosts, which tells qmail-smtpd to accept mail addressed to these hosts, and
locals, which tells qmail-send that addresses on these hosts are to be delivered locally.
