[cobalt-users] [RaQ4i] mail problem

I have a problem with our raq, but up to now nobody could give me the
right hint. Now I´ll try again.
Our configuration:
- mail server, which is not the raq: 213.252.143.13
- raq4i server name: cobalt01.wolfenline.de
- services on raq: http (no email!)
What happened:
This raq serves www.wolfenline.de, the dedicated mail server handles
*@wolfenline.de.
When I use formmail.pl on the raq with to:info@xxxxxxxxxxxxx the emails
are not sent to info@xxxxxxxxxxxxx @ 213.252.143.13. The raq tries to post
the mail to a local account which is, of course, not existing. At the
moment I use to:info@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx which is working fine, because
*@wolfenline.com is an alias of *@wolfenline.de on the mail server.
Why does raq try to send the mail to a local account? The answer is: the
cobalt server name contains the domain wolfenline.de. Every email sent via
raq to this domain is handled by the raq itself although mail services are
not enabled.
What´s the solution for me? I want to change the cobalt server name to
cobalt01.wolfenline.net. This would cause the raq to handle
*@wolfenline.net for itself but that doesn´t worry me anyway. Then
to:info@xxxxxxxxxxxxx per formmail.pl should work.
Ha, it does not work. I changed the cobalt server name via administration
web front end. But I suppose that there are other configuration files
which were not changed. Perhaps these conf files are only edited on the
first use of the raq4i.
So, can anyone tell me what I have to do to get it work as described above?
Please ask me if there is still anything confusing.
Thanks for your help, Meinhard
