Dear newsgroup,

I am trying to set up Courier ESMTP for local mail delivery. Unfortunately it just doesn't want to accept mails send to sven@localhost (for example). It gives me a 513 syntax error. It seems like Courier wants a fully qualified domain name, because it does work with sv@localhost.home.local (which is set up in /etc/hosts). localhost and jupiter (which is the name of my computer) are set up in /etc/courier/locals though! I've also set up a symbolic link from locals to esmtpacceptmailfor.dir/local.

Courier should not check for a valid domain name if it crosses a local domain, or do I miss something? What am I doing wrong? What is the magic setting?

There is no magic setting. Courier requires fully-qualified domain names.
