QMail Help

Hello
	I'm running qmail and I created an smtproutes file, inside
my 
/var/qmail/control/ directory.  I then sent a killall -ALRM
qmail-send, 
but it doesn't seem like it uses that smtproutes file I
made.  I start 
qmail using supervise scripts.

Also in my smtproutes file can I use IP's, and do they have
to be 
enclosed inside brackets?
E.G. super.com:[1.2.3.4]

Hello,

This isn't the right place to ask this question. 
Irregardless of that, 
since you are using supervise to manage the daemon, try the
following:

svc -h /path/to/service/directory

OR

svc -a /path/to/service/directory


If neither of those work, you can restart the daemon
altogether

svc -d /path/to/service/directory

followed by

svc -u /path/to/service/directory

I Agree, this would be better posted to a qmail list, but
anyway:

I think -ALRM tells qmail to re-run the queue, what you need
is to send 
a HUP signal to the qmail-send, like "pkill -HUP
qmail-send", so it will 
read the control files again.
Have you read the Life With Qmail docs?

See qmail-control(5) and qmail-remote(8).

smtproutes is read by qmail-remote not qmail-send.
qmail-remote
doesn't require a signal since a new instance is started for
each
delivery. If smtproutes is not working, something else is
wrong.

Check the syntax of the file (it is described in
qmail-remote man
page). You may need to use wild cards to handle all
instances for that
domain name. If that's all fine, then perhaps there's a
problem on the
remote host.
