I upgraded to e-smith v4.0 from settings I backed up and restored from beta 8.
My confirguration consists of a primary domain ABC.COM, a virtual domain DEF.ORG and a user PERSON1. Both domain names point to my static ip address. From the outside world, I can see both web pages WWW.ABC.COM and WWW.DEF.ORG. This part of my system is working very well(!).
However, e-mail is a different story. I can send e-mail to PERSON1@ABC.COM and it is received correctly. However, e-mail to PERSON1@DEF.ORG from the 'outside' is rejected and returned to the sender with the error:
"This Message was undeliverable due to the following reason:
Each of the following recipients was rejected by a remote mail server.
The reasons given by the server are included to help you determine why
each recipient was rejected.
Recipient:
Reason: sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts (#5.7.1)"
When I send e-mail from the 'inside', I get:
"Hi. This is the qmail-send program at ABC.COM.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.
:
Sorry. Although I'm listed as a best-preference MX or A for that host,
it isn't in my control/locals file, so I don't treat it as local. (#5.4.6)"
I use easyDNS.com as my DNS publishers. DEF.ORG is an exact duplicate of ABC.COM (if fact, I use their 'clone' facility to make sure that the MX records are the same.) I've looked at the Qmail logs /var/log/qmail/@00000... but cannot see the 'rejected' error message when e-mail is delivered from the internet.
Obviously, this feature has been tested and is working on many other systems. Can anyone see what I have done wrong??? Many thanx.

These symptoms indicate that def.org does not appear in
/var/qmail/control/locals and /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts. Could you
please check the contents of those files, and of /home/e-smith/domains, and send me email letting me know what you find.
