problem with /alias/.qmail-all_staff
Hi all ...
Thanks to those who replied to my previous question.
I fixed it by removing the program and doing a re-install.

The next problem...
I have set up a .qmail-all_staff file in /etc/qmail/alias
of the format:
&First.Secondname@flinders.edu.au

When I send to it this failure message is returned....

Mar 13 00:15:45 fubio1 qmail: 858174345.337144 starting delivery 214:
msg 18690 to remote First.Secondname@flinders.edu.au_ Mar 13 00:15:49

fubio1 qmail: 858174349.135358 delivery 214: failure:
Sorry,_I_couldn't_find_any_host_named_flinders.edu.au?._(#5.1.2)/

For some reason the campus mailserver is not resolving the addresses.
The curious thing is a couple of other .qmail-* aliases seem to work
using the same addressing format.
Any clues? Thanks JimB...
