Of course I knew it already when I uninstalled qmail and switched to courier. I am now in the process of killing courier and reinstalling qmail. It always goes like this. Sort of a natural law…
Well, Courier was nice, much nicer than qmail in fact. I could send and receive emails after maybe 2 hours. But then, for the better part of the last week, I struggled with getting smtp time rejection working. The typical linux shite happened. Change ten configuration files, each with its own description language that bears no logics. Read a hundred manpages where all too often one is contradictory to the other.
Since yesterday morning, 10 o’clock, Courier ran, accepted emails, successfully delivered them but none of them actually appeared in my mailbox. Given the fact that it just stopped putting them into my mailbox out of the blue (I was at work that morning, so I know for sure I didn’t touch that server), this is totally inacceptable.
I just hope qmail will eventually decide to do its bidding again. Otherwise, say hello to postfix my server
