I have 2 qmail server. when running the .qmail function under the home directory, 1 is fine but another will attach a "_" charater at the tail and make is fail to do forward function.

I test with a email in .qmail, e.g. abc@gmail.com, but it will result a abc@gmail.com_ and fail to sent out.

any suggestion? thanks
 
Can you show us the .qmail file in question?
 
I sure this is just a normal .qmail format

e.g.
abc@abc.com

in maillog it will show it remote to abc@abc.com_

or if you put abc in .qmail
in maillog, it will show abc_@mydomain.com

 
these are the log error
I put xxx@gmail.com in .qmail

reminded that the address above xxx@gmail.com_ is follow by a "_" charater
 
Check your qmail-alias and defaultdelivery control files.

You've either embedded the "_" character in something that's being appended during handling,

or

You applied a patch and added this character in the code?
