Okay, I dont have a locals file, and cant find a me file. I do however, know that showconfig prints out a lot of this info, so I've attatched a dump of showconfig, and a dump of a session with the SMTP server, using the EXPN and VRFY commands. (let me know if I did them wrong, I've never used them before.) Thanks again in advance!

It looks like your problem is that the server's hostname is also endikos.com.

'me' defaults to the server's hostname, and 'locals' defaults to 'me', so you end up with 'endikos.com' being set as a local domain. Local domains cannot appear in the hostddomains file.

The simplest solution:

echo 'localhost' >locals makealiases

Here are the attatchments I forgot to actually attach the first time

Need to look at the locals and me files, to see what local domains you are configured with.

Also, EXPN and VRFY can produce useful information.

Hello!

Once again I'm stumped. All incoming mail is being rejected as 550 User Unknown. I'm using userdb. The weird thing is that I CAN authenticate in pop3 as the user that's being rejected. I've attached my userdb file for your inspection, as well as my hosteddomains file. It doesn't seem to make any difference if I put the domain in esmtpacceptmailfor. I haven't put anything into locals. I would sincerely appreciate someone pointing out the error of my ways. Thanks in Advance!

Kindest Regards, Bill
