A tip for newbies (something I found out today), qmail processes 'locals' before 'virtualdomains'. So if you are running vpopmail (with of course, virtual domains), and all of your vdomains are listed in 'locals', mail won't get delivered! I figured that out today, the hard way (after about 6 1/2 hrs debugging)! How did my locals get all my vdomains? I haven't the foggiest . . . I deleted 'locals', and voila . . . BTW, I was getting "Sorry,no_mailbox_here_by_that_name" error messages in syslog when I tried to send mail to local domains . . . :):)
