I followed the directions in /var/qmail/docs to the letter. The mailboxes are set up in home (I wanted that anyway), aliases are created, the alias and qmail users in passwd as well... Now, mail delivery inside the machine works wonderfully, I can watch it in /var/log/maillog. I can send mails to the outside as well.. But it does not accept mail... I also looked into the alias mailbox - nothing there. However, I do not receive mails from the outside world. It never even shows up in /var/log/maillog (checked) I temporarily disabled all the tcpwrappers in hosts.allow (allowing anything), still no success... I don't get a failure message from the sender, either. Any help is appreciated, I doubt I can figure that one out...
