  Been having some trouble setting up mail accounts on Debian (Being checked through IMAP w/ Outlook Express.  uw imap is the imap daemon, exim is the smtp).

  We create a full blown account called "Rich.G" on mail.ourdomain.org using linuxconf, but when we try to send an email to it, we get this error sent back to us:

  This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

  A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
  recipients. The following address(es) failed:

    Rich.G at mail.ourdomain.org:
      unknown local-part "rich.g" in domain "mail.ourdomain.org"

  What does that mean?  The account IS there and up.  I can connect to it via ssh and all, I just cannot send mail to it.  Any ideas?
