Hi

I installed indimail on Rocky Linux 8 from the available rpm repository.
All worked fine but I have a strange behavior when creating an alias to
forward emails.

I used the command below to create the alias:

valias -i '&postm...@example.com' use...@example.com

When an Email is sent to use...@example.com the Email arrives in the
postmaster Inbox ... but it also remains in the queue forever and is
sent to the postmaster Inbox again and again because it is never removed
from the queue?

In the end I had to remove the email from the queue with the 'qmail-rm'
command.

Any idea why this happens?

below and extract from /var/log/svc/deliver.25/current ... adapted for
the case described above

I have fixed the bug. Which repository are you using? I have started a
build with the fix on home:mbhangui repository (indimail 3.4.4). I
will apply the same fix to home:indimail repository (indimail-3.4.3)
tomorrow.

Wow ... that was quick!

I used the "home:mbhangui" repository to update indimail.x86_64 to
version indimail-3.4.4-126.1.x86_64

Then restarted all services & tried again ... tataaaaa ... now it works :-)

Thanks a lot!

I have another question related to email headers of emails I received
while i was testing ... they include a line like the one below:

---
DKIM-Status: signature error: RSA/ED25519 verify failed
---

Is this also a bug?

Regards

Michael
