tcprules: fatal: unable to parse this line: ::ffff:127.0.0.1:allow,RELAYCLIENT=""

It was working great when I was just using Qmail+Vpopmail+Mysql then I added courier-imapd to the mix for TWIG Web based mail.

telnet localhost 110 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to dhcp27.safe-orl.int.23.10.10.in-addr.arpa. Escape character is '^]'. +OK <8692@ecp1.hostcentric.com> user post@murray.web +OK pass ########## tcprules: fatal: unable to parse this line: ::ffff:127.0.0.1:allow,RELAYCLIENT="" +OK

tcprules (http://cr.yp.to/ucspi-tcp/tcprules.html) and tcpserver (http://cr.yp.to/ucspi-tcp/tcpserver.html) are part of DJB's ucspi-tcp package (http://cr.yp.to/ucspi-tcp.html). rules that specify setting environment variables or rejecting connections are set in an cdb database (http://cr.yp.to/cdb.html). tcprules can change these rules. The cdb databse could be specified with "tcpserver -x cdb".

Usally an entry like 127.0.0.1:allow,RELAYCLIENT="" says tcpserver that connections from 127.0.0.1 are allowed and sets an environment variable for qmail-smtpd that means that this smtp session is allowed to use qmail-smtpd as an relay.

Your warning from tcprules looks like a problem to build the new cdb database. When the database is in /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb entries could be set via the textfile /etc/tcp.smtp. Maybe there is a syntax error in this file.

IMHO your problem is just qmail relating. Usefull infos about qmail could be found in LWQ (http://www.lifewithqmail.org/) or in the qmail mailing list.
