Hello everyone,
I have a strange problem,
There is a users has been added in my FreeBSD 4.8-R since over 6 months
now.
suddenly from no where, last 2 days, any INCOMING emails ONLY
to this users it fails and it says "user known"
Actually the user is in the system, im running the builtin sendmail.
and qpopper, openwebmail, nothing special.
I deleted that users totally, I add him again, but the same problem!
I added a diffrent username, it works fine.
I changed the Uid for the poor user it still doesnot accept
incoming mails and says "unknown users" or "faild"
I ran the command cat /etc/passwd|awk -F: '{print $1}'
the users is listed, I checked /etc/passwd , users is listed,
I can access user shell.
/var/log/maillog says:
sm-mta[670]: hBHFWZpD000670: <derya@DOMAIN.net>... User unknown
Can someone explain, whats this!
any help appreciate it thanks.
Marwan.
