I'm trying to bring up qmail on a new machine...domain X in location A to domain X at location B.
When I use qmail-inject to send a local message to a local account, the mail message ends up in a file called ~myhomedir/Maildir/?
Yes, that's correct. The ? file seems to really be a \r since I can do a "rm -i *" and it asks if I really want to delete '\r'. I have the new/cur/tmp files as well and all my protections are correct.
The only thing I can possibly think of is that I'm trying to phase the box into the new location. The new computer is at a new ISP and is using their DNS which points domain X to the new box, but the rest of the world still sees location A as the correct domain. I was just waiting until I got everything working before I repoint my primary and secondary DNS servers.
I've searched qmail.org and the web endlessly. Does anyone have a guess as to why all messages are going to the ? file.
If I use qmail-inject to send to an outside account (e.g. a yahoo email address), that works fine.
