Re: Multiple domains on the same IP address
Same thing here, the emails mostly bounce with 417 temporary delivery error.
I think it has something to do with the primary domain for SMTP.
Is there any way to get help on proper configuration for multiple domains?

XQMAgent install on FreeBSD-6.1-Release (XMail)
Hi there,
I am trying to install XQMAgent (GUI for XMail server) on FreeBSD-6.1-Release. After unzip and try to run script "./xqmagent" to install this package, I get a message "/usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libz.so.2" not found, required by "xqmagent"." On marketmix.com/, where I downloaded XQMAgent, it is said that before installation "please be sure that libssl.so.0.9.6 (Secure Sockets Layer, cryptography libraries and tools) is installed on your system,” and gives this link www.freebsd.org/cgi/po.... I installed openssl from ports, but it doesn't make any difference. I just don't know where to get this library.
Thank you for your advice ahead!

multiple domains on one IP
Hi,
I am trying to setup several different domains on one Xmail server all with the same IP address.
It has been having problems with relay and seems to come of an invalid PTR record. There is only one PTR record to the root domain, but many other emails get bounced back from the rest of the domains.
How should I be setting it up?
Thanks a lot.

Re: Windows XP configuration
Are you trying to send mail (SMTP) or get mail (POP3), while getting the password retry?
How did you configure your server? Manually, or using the CtrlClnt tool?

Windows XP configuration
I would appreciate any help on this issue - I have installed XMail on my Win XP Pro laptop, following all instructions from Halfdone.com (www.halfdone.com/Artic...) - a very good tutorial if I say so myself, and I do. :)
I am trying to set up my own machine at from my laptop to send e-mail using XMail; thus while following the instructions at halfdone.com I replaced the domain names provided in the tutorial with 'localhost'. This is the only way I could think of to send e-mail from my machine.
Using this configuration, however, my e-mail client connects to localhost, and asks for my password. The password I used in the installation of XMail seems to not be acceptable, and I am asked again and again for my password.
I am thinking that there is something I did wrong in my configuration. The totorial at halfdone.com is for XMail 1.6 & 1.7. Could that be it? Well, in any case, I have not found any instructions on how to send e-mail via XMail using your own machine, it seems like it's just for servers connected to the Internet backbone, or have a DNS server running on it, or something. I found many different non-XMail related GUI apps out there that would do the trick, but they're resource hogs.
Any help on this topic would be appreciated!
