- 2 - I had to set up the groups and users manually as per INSTALL.ids
- 7 - ./qmail-makectl did not work on my system. I added my domain name (mickey.n.eunet.de) manually in /var/qmail/control/me
- 23 - Make sure qmail-smtpd is spelt correctly in the inetd-conf file.
(I spelt it incorrectly i.e. qmail-smptd, which took me two days to find:( )

Dan Bernstein has provided a package for sending queued email to an ISP
via dial-in. This package is available as serialmailxxx from his site.
Install this package as described in the man page (Thanks Rupert Mazzucco
(maz@pap.univie.ac.at), it works out of the box!
maildir2smtp - blast a maildir across SMTP
maildir2smtp is designed to pass messages along a SLIP or
PPP link. To set this up on the disconnected end, create
a new maildir in alias:
# maildirmake ~alias/pppdir
# chown -R alias ~alias/pppdir
Put
:alias-ppp
into control/virtualdomains and
./pppdir/
into ~alias/.qmail-ppp-default. Don't forget the extra
slash in pppdir/. Then, in the PPP startup script, do
maildir2smtp ~alias/pppdir alias-ppp- $IP `hostname`
replacing $IP with the remote IP address.
Notes:
- Please read the Fine manual page completely.
- Maildir2smtp requires the dotted IP address of your mail server. If you do not have this then ping YourMail.host.country which will return the IP.
- This command can be included in your login script to flush all queued mail after logging in to your ISP.
