Hi all, I have installed qmail on rh7.3. It runs fine. I am also running pppd with the "demand" option. This is to connect for other purposes. I want qmail to accept messages from a local network, but not to send them, and then schedule a connection at regular intervals. Only once the connection comes up, do I want to messages in the queue to be sent. At the moment, what is happening is that as soon as a message enters the queue, it triggers the dial-on-demand in pppd and gets sent straight away. (not sure if this is trigger by actually trying to send the messages, or by doing the mx lookup...). Is there any way I can configure serialmail/qmail to not even try and send messages. I have read how-to's on configuring serialmail, but they do not cover using the dial-on-demand option with pppd.
