Note: BerkeleyDB.4.2 was previously installed from source onto the system so there was not need to install this package. On a purely stock install this would have been required.

Preferences vs. Command Line Options
Here’s my question answered by the author of DSpam – Jonathan Zdziarski:

Qmail FAQ
Here’s a link to a qmail faq:
http://cr.yp.to/qmail/faq.html
Don’t know if it’s the most recent version.
Relay Control
In qmail, relaying is usually controlled by the tcpserver wrapper which uses a config file at either /etc/tcp.smtp or /home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp.
The config file must be compiled into a binary format – “tcp.smtp.cdb” for actual use. Here’s the command line:
|
1 |
tcprules /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb /etc/tcp.smtp.tmp < /etc/tcp.smtp |
You don’t need to restart qmail after rebuilding the database.
