Not because of the fact, that Plesk and Visas (both famous ISP-Software) use Qmail with inetd. :) No, it useless because (x)inetd is for getting Mails, not for sending. For this you don't need inetd to bind on a specific IP, because the MX-Record do this for you. If you want to bind Qmail for outgoing Mails on an IP, i must tell you: this will not work because Qmail have no possibles to do so. huschi. Absolute useless.

When I insert the bind line, no email goes out after that. I am on FC2 using Plesk 7.5, so I am using the xinetd service, but not a lightweight version of Qmail, I guess a regular one. My quetion is: is this supposed to work with a specific patch on Qmail? Googling the topic showed that plain vanilla qmail only sends to the server's default IP and most people recommend a patch to change the outgoing IP... Ajack Hey that did not work for me.
