Jon,

Grab an old PC, a couple of 1TB hard drives and install OpenFiler.  Grab the 
v2.3 beta 2 from here:  https://www.openfiler.com/community/forums

I've been using the 2.2 version for over a year with ESX 3.0 through 3.5 patch 
1 with no issues.

 Can anybody recommend a cheap 2TB NAS solution? Needs to have gigabit

 $600).
 Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

 Thanks,

[IMail Forum] OT: Len Conrad?

2008-04-26 Thread Jeff Hitchcock
Off topic, but Len has posted here and people know him.

 

Many months ago I hired Len Conrad to install a new version of his
IMGate software. He said he was suffering from some health issues and
asked if I could pay him the $600 up front. Since he had done a good job
before, I agreed. He never completed the work and has not responded to
email for months. Does anyone know if he's alright?

This is very strange.  A few days ago our server was caught sending out
scam emails.  I narrowed it down to about 40 sessions that day that all
started out with:

20080122 142621 127.0.0.1   SMTPD (435d01f014d0) [199.176.228.5]

20080122 142621 127.0.0.1   SMTPD (435d01f014d0) [199.176.228.5]
MAIL FROM:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

The sending address seemed to rotate between about ten different
addresses, the above mail from being one of them.  According to this log
it was initiated on the server itself.  My first thought is that I'm
compromised.  However, if I was why would the connection bother
authenticating?  My server would not need to authenticate via SMTP.

I've checked my server over and I can't find anything out of the
ordinary.  My virus scanner is running fine and overall the server is
very clean.  The only application it is responsible for is Imail so I
don't have too many processes to sift through.

I changed the password for kyakg, which all of the sessions used to
authenticate.  Since then I haven't seen any more spam.  I haven't even
seen an entry in the logs for kyakg trying to authenticate.

Confused...

Any recommendations on how to figure out what this means?

RE: [IMail Forum] Tracking Messages

2008-01-24 Thread Jeff Frantz
It's been a few years since I've used Imail's webmail.  Prior to using IIS, web 
messaging logged to two w* files located in the spool directory.

I tried logging into webmail as a user but see no authentication information in 
any Imail logs.  I do see a logout in the IIS log but I suspect that won't 
appear if the user doesn't click the logout link.

Yes, that must be it.  When I send emails from webmail, they do appear
like that.  I'm not sure why I was expecting something different.  So
that's a simple answer, thanks!

However, that means I have to rely on my web server logs to determine
who was logged in as kyakg and sending those emails...  unfortunately
authentication is handled my the imail CGI app and wouldn't be included
in that log.

Any idea how I would track this back to a session and a user in web
messaging? :)

RE: [IMail Forum] OT: Bombarded by bad DNS queries

2007-11-16 Thread Jeff Hitchcock
SimpleDNS allows recursion for IP address ranges (your subnets) and
specific IP addresses (your friend's static IP). It also allows several
responses to recursion requests from non-authorized hosts, including
responding with a refused error message, not responding at all (Len's
suggestion and my setting), or responding with a specific A or MX record
(porn - disney.com suggestion). 

I've used SimpleDNS for years and can definitely recommend it.

We use SimpleDNS (www.simpledns.com) and have had no problems.  Easy
operation and allows you to turn off recursion

.. all or nothing recursion won't work, because recursion has to be:

1) allowed for his IPs

2) denied for not-his-IPs.

  and has a do not respond
feature which slows down any attacks

You don't want to slow down, you want to ignore.

Thank you for writing to Yahoo! Mail.

We cannot systematically exempt your mailings from our SpamGuard
technology since the IP address of the server appears to be a shared
domain mail host and have multiple clients sending email. We will
maintain the current information in our database as it is configured. 

This allows delivery of your mailings to oscillate between the Inbox and
the Bulk Mail folder as Yahoo! users choose.

Please keep in mind that our SpamGuard technology will continually
monitor user feedback pertaining to emails coming from your mail
server(s), and as such, the user feedback we receive will be one of the
factors that influence where your emails are most appropriately
delivered. Our studies have indicated that when users see messages
incorrectly categorized, they notify us within hours of delivery. 

We do recommend that if you maintain several clients or company lists
(especially for an ISP/ASP/ESP) to segregate your clients to different
IP addresses. This ensures that users are marking each company on its
own merits. User notifications to us may become hazy should they see
both spam and legitimate mail from the same IP. In cases like these, the
end result will likely be that spam will override the legitimate mail.

If you implement significant changes to your mailing practices, feel
free to contact us again. You may refer to the Help page below for some
information and general guidelines that we have found to be effective in
maintaining good mailing lists:

Just went through this yesterday with a client who has the Exchange
version of this for one of his domains. 

He has one domain run on Exchange and another that I run for him on
iMail. The only way to get this to work correctly was to set up the
iMail accounts to forward to the Exchange-hosted account on the other
domain.

A subsidiary is looking to upgrade their blackberrys.  One proposal

a Blackberry Enterprise Server.

Does anyone have any experience with BES?

BB's site mentions Exchange, Notes, and Groupwise.  Does BES work with

Re: [IMail Forum] Virus on Imail server

2006-12-02 Thread Jeff Cummings

-- Original Message --

I can clean the server completely with F-Prot then Trojan Hunter and the next 
moring it is all back and I have to try to do the same thing over...sometimes 
the server will stay clean for days and sometimes just a few minutes...it is 
driving me crazyanyone else out there ever experience this and if so how 
did you fix it...

For what it’s worth I had a very similar problem.  I must have cleaned and 
disinfected my 8.22 server 10 times.  I finally closed every port on the server 
(I was always going to do this but never got around to it) but what Imail 
needed open to run.  If you search the IPswitch it will give you a list of what 
ports are necessary. It has been running fine now for several months. The worm 
was evidently re-infecting the server using an unused open port. I don’t know 
if this is what is happening to your server but it sure was easier than a 
re-format and reinstall.

RE: [IMail Forum] SMTP Exploit Scanning Going on NOW

2006-10-26 Thread Jeff Hitchcock
I'm hoping that having my IMGate servers as the published MX servers
instead of my iMail server reduces the exposure to this attack.

I do have the iMail server open for incoming SMTP, but it is known only
to customers. Port scanning would find it, obviously.
 
Perhaps blocking port 25 at the outside firewall and using only the
alternate port 587 would help. Does anyone know if the current scans are
hitting only port 25?

 I'm not sure how a firewall could help in this instance (if someone

opened to the world in order for imail to receive mail, a firewall has
simply to allow it (I think) or there is no mail, and that's that.

RE: [IMail Forum] I got rid of free email spammers

2006-10-20 Thread Jeff Hitchcock
I offer free email to visitors to a diabetes support site I run. The
intent is for kids to get a spam protected address, since I am brutal in
blocking mail to that domain. Within a week of launching it several
years ago, fraudsters found it and signed up for accounts and began
spamming. 

I changed the sign up process and I manually review every single request
for an account, looking at source IP, email address to which account
information is sent, and phone number of the requestor. I still get
several attmepts per week from spammers to obtain accounts and they are
blatant about it, filling in Spammer and stuff like that in the name
field.

Had I to do it over again, I would not offer free email. It's nothing
but a headache.

probably they are just overloaded.

Several of my biggest clients report huge increases in spam in the 
last couple weeks.

I have one new client whose Barracuda was so overwhelmed taking 10+ 
hours to pass messages through it, so we put an IMGate out front, 
which blocks 80% of inbound with only a couple of filters.  IMGate is 
delivering less that 2000 msgs/hour to Barracuda now while blocking 
about 7K/hour.

Barracuda is STILL working on 5000 msgs in its queue. IMGate averages 
20 secs to deliver a msg to the Barracuda, when it should average way 
under 5 secs, which indicates how slowly the Barracuda is running.

IMGate boxes block all dictionary attacks, stop attachment viruses,
check RBLs, and pre-filter for common crap. The boxes are basically
desktop-class machines running Linux (hence two -- redundancy).

I don't know much about setting up postfix, so I hired Len Conrad to set
everything up. He was a pleasure to work with and has continued to
answer an occasional question. I highly recommend him, if you need help
setting it up.

Subject: [IMail Forum] Slightly OT: Imail gateway solutions



Forgive me if I'm a bit brain-slow today. In dealing with the latest
spam flood I'm looking into a gateway solution for my Imail server. Of
course in lurking around here I've seen IMGate come up a lot. Since my
mail server is also my DNS server what solution would you recommend to
use to take all of this filtering off my primary box? I thought about a
Barracuda firewall but couldn't think it through as to how to have the
firewall filter spam but still allow DNS connections.

 

Any advice?

[IMail Forum] imail 8.22 ssl

2006-10-12 Thread Jeff Dove








Hello.



Imail 8.22, Win2003



My SSL cert expired end of Sept. I renewed the cert and
applied it using the Imail SSL Configuration Utility, but I keep getting page
cannot be displayed when I try to switch to secure mode or type in https://myserver.whatever.



I have checked web messaging and calendaring and SSL is
enabled. I have checked the iwebmsg.ini file and enableSSL is set to 1.



Any ideas out there?



Thanks.

Customized footer means that each msg body must be customized

It's a serious trade-off for big lists:  speed of sending a big list

They don't even contact us about wanting to be unsubscribed.  If they
contacted us, we would at least have a dialogue and could work on
getting

They

Let me add some addition list server features:

1. Automatic generation of web-based message archive with the option to
de-HTMLize such messages and strip off attachments. Selectable number of
messages or date range for archive. Right now, I use Mhonarc, and it's a
pain.

2. Ability to inject trailers even in HTML messages sent to the list

Subject: Re: [IMail Forum] 2006 Listserver


I don't know that I really need three features; I think I'd settle for
one:
better (easier) management of the lists.

As I just pointed out to someone else, we don't expect IMail to compete
with
stand-alone products.  It would just be nice to see some improvements
since
V4 (which is when I started).

The one feature most lack is to make it easier to manage a list.  Most
often, our lists are not changed by subscribe/unsubscribe emails, but we
someone (say in a club) who manages the entire list.  It would be good
for
someone to be able to pull an entire list up, edit the list, then update
the
listserver.  Or to upload an entire list at once.

What we've had for a while is a hack I put together some while back.
The
list manager browses to a list server manager page on a web server
(which is
not the mail server, since we can't run IIS concurrently with IMail on
the
older versions of IMail).  On this web page, you enter the domain name,
the
list name, and a password.  At the click of a button, it will download
the
current list into a text box.  You can edit the text in the box,
including
just replacing it with text you copied from another document (such as
Word
or Excel), and then there is an update button that pushes the data back
to
the mail server.  The web page actually has the option to display the
list
in either a single box (name and email combined) or in two boxes (name
and
email separated).

Behind the scenes, the web page uses MS SMTP and ASP to send a message
to
the list server to either get or set the list.  On the mail server,
there
are program aliases for custom programs that I wrote in VB that update
or
retrieve the list files directly.  It's all a hack, but it works mostly.
The only problem is that at the web server, it has to wait on the mail
server sending get or set commands, and that can be a long wait (and
sometimes it times out and nothing happens).

So give me an easy web-based, password protected tool to access and
update
the entire list at once.

Thanks,

Ben

  Are needs for a list server have always been modest, so it was

[IMail Forum] Moving Imail lists to Exchange

2006-03-08 Thread Jeff Dove








Looking to move from Imail to MS Exchange 2003.

Does anyone have any information on moving existing Imail
lists to an Exchange 2003 server?

RE: Know Outlook Limitations and recovery tools (WAS RE: [IMail Forum] Imail mail box size limit)

All that is true, but the lack of an integrated calendar in Thunderbird
remains an issue for those of us addicted to Outlook.

Forum] Imail mail box size limit)

Netscape/Mozilla/Thunderbird stores the E-mail in a big text file 
completely in ASCII format, with one file per folder.  It works very 
similarly to IMail in that it builds a separate summary file that the 
interface uses to navigate through the mailbox file.  It is invaluable 
for doing spam review since it will show the full source of the E-mail 
in unedited text format by just simply pressing Ctrl+U.  When you 
forward as an attachment, it also doesn't strip the original headers.

Personally, I strongly recommend Firefox and Thunderbird for corporate 
users where Exchange or some other integrated solution isn't used.  
While there certainly can be security flaws, they are not actively 
targeted.  It is of course free to boot.  The browser is currently 
better as well (tabbed navigation rocks), and there are many free 
add-ons for both skinning and enhanced functionality.  It is extremely 
rare for spyware to attempt to install from a website, and I'm not sure 
if any would actually do anything when using Firefox as the browser.

As far as compatibility goes, outside of known proprietary functionality

of other client/server setups, Thunderbird doesn't have any issues that 
I am aware of.  Firefox sometimes runs into sites with old code that say

they don't support the browser, but in reality, you can mostly code 
JavaScript exactly the same way for both IE and Firefox, so it is really

the fault of the detection mechanism and not compatibility.  I rarely 
come across a site that isn't supporting Firefox any more.  They have 
better standard compliance than any other browser currently.

You can also easily move E-mail and bookmarks between apps.  The E-mail 
client doesn't mind having the mailbox files stored on a file server 
either, so it is easy to back it up globally for all users.  It is also 
profile-aware, so I would imagine that this works just fine with roaming

profiles and syncing.

Firefox will import Internet Explorer settings such as bookmarks, 
cookies, saved passwords and other things.  Thunderbird will import the 
address books, E-mail and settings from Outlook and Outlook Express.

I have always used Netscape/Mozilla/Firefox/Thunderbird as my primary 
browser and only E-mail client going back to 1996.  I have never been 
infected with a virus or spyware, and much of this has to do with using 
this platform.  Corporations without Exchange can save big on support 
costs in cleaning up such things, and improve security by making the
switch.

Yes.  IN every case that I saw it, it occurred in Outlook 2003 only.  It
occurred with Junk Mail.mbx only and the fix was to disable Junk Mail

 Subject: [IMail Forum] Gigs and gigs of mail?
 
 Twice now in the past two months, I have had this happen on my IMail 8.13
 install:
 
 - User is using IMAP on Outlook from their office
 - User is using webmail from home
 - User does not have any server-side rules, vacation messages or any other
 strange things
 - User has one client side IMAP rule
 
 With no apparent reason, the user's mailbox will suddenly start growing.
 The first time it was their Main.mbx, the second time it happened it was a
 Junk E-mail.mbx that Outlook had created via IMAP. Over the course of a
 couple of days, this mailbox grows until it is over a hundred gigs in
 size,
 the server runs out of disk space, and everything stops. All mail server
 processes have to be stopped in order to gain access to the massive file
 and delete it. The file appears to be filled with garbage - the last time
 it was filled with a hundred gigabytes of the letter f. There is nothing
 in any log file to indicate what has caused it to happen.
 
 Anyone come across this before? Any idea what might be causing it?
 I beleive this is a common issue - See this post from the archive.
 This may help.
http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum@list.ipswitch.com/msg93389.html

 Darrell

 I have had about 5 users over the past month that will 'all of a sudden'
 have a Junk Email.mbx file that is 20-40GB in size, thus taking all my
 free disk space. When I monitor these files, they are constantly growing
 until there is no space left. Of course this stops all Imail services
 from working because of the lack of disk space.

I've had this happen twice and both times it was a user mbx file containing
client data. No Junk Email involved.

The first time it consumed all of the available disk space and bad things
happened. The second time, I caught it before all the space was gone and
the user just lost a day's worth of client correspondence because I
restored the folder to its previous day's state. The bad file is 11GB in
size
and defies my efforts to look at it. I don't know if it will compress.

Don't presume that DNSStuff is the be all and end all for showing

of IP addresses, etc., to reject.

You are very close in a network sense to a group that has spammed me

RE: [IMail Forum] outbound rules gone from 2006?

2006-02-20 Thread Jeff Hitchcock



I concur on the specific issue of forwarding to AOL 
users, which has resulted in more than one occasion where my regular outbound 
email to AOL has been blocked due to forwarding spam.

My new 
policy is no forwards to AOL, period. I don't have that many users, so I can

it.

 Is there a way to block the trouble IP(s) automatically other than
manually
 entering into the iMail Admin's Control List?
 
 There are a few (invalid) addresses being targeted that we got log 
 lines
as
 below.  The source apparently changed its IP every time.  Any
suggestion?

[IMail Forum] Where did I go Wrong?

2006-01-19 Thread Jeff Cummings
First let me say I appreciate the tremendous amount of assistance I have
received by reading this forum I have found it to be invaluable in
maintaining my email server. 
Recently I had a failure on my server and I had to reinstall my Imail
software (version 8.1X) the software was originally setup by a consulting
company a couple of years ago for us and they are no longer around. Anyway
the software is requiring activation.  I went to the Ipswitch website and
entered my serial number and it said it had an error and I should contact
customer service.  I emailed customer service and got this response back 

This product has been deactivated and is no longer an active product if you
wish to install you will need to purchase the full copy of Imail.

I have tried calling them but haven't gotten a call back yet, but do I have
to re-purchase the software to be able to reinstall it.  Somehow this
doesn't seem fair.  We are not power users by any means just a small
company with one domain and about 100 users, and with all the issues with
the latest version I really don't need its features or problems. Is there
something else I should have done? I have 21 more days before my present
install dies to get something done. Any suggestions?

  Problems
  
  
  
This is really amazing; the recent 
special to renew the imail service agreement caught my attention and it 
seemed like ipswitch was finally interested in providing a product that was 
not simply about trying to screwing existing customers. So, based on the 
information in this newsletter, and discussions with ipswitch I decided to 
take advantage of the offer and purchase a new service agreement. I 
purchased from “Jenny” at CDW as recommended here. BIG MISTAKE. She somehow 
managed to sit on my order until the offer expired, then informed me that 
the product had been discontinued! I even have documentation confirming my 
purchase on 11/23.

So I called ipswitch to see what they 
could do – well, they said the product no longer exist (a service agreement 
mind you!) but they would be happy to sell me the latest “cross-grade” at a 
25% discount. I was absolutely amazed that ipswitch would not honor the 
original offer. I had provided them with supporting documentation showing 
that I had in fact purchased the service agreement from CDW on 11/23 and CDW 
screwed up the order, but they still refuse to honor the original offer. 
They even believed they were doing me some sort of favor by offering me a 
discounted cross-grade. Anyhow, it really felt like a bait and switch job 
and had I been unsure, that conversation convinced me that I do not want to 
purchase anything ipswitch going forward.

Hey ipswitch: I have rarely seen such 
poor customer relations. I am now convinced that I do not want to use any 
ipswitch products going forward. So, ip you have lost me as a customer, 
which probably doesn’t matter to you since I am a small customer, but 
realize that I am out there working as a network / software consulting 
company and a lot of big companies happen to be clients; you can bet I will 
never recommend another ipwsitch product.

Anybody have any good recommendations 
for an imail replacement?

Sincerely,

SteveWheeler

HiJoe,

Thanks 
for the comments.

Ultimately, defects are defects are we need to fix them.

We (Ipswitch) have been running IMail 2006 
in our production environment for over a month now and have not experienced the 
configuration and contacts issues that have been reported by some 
customers. Now that we know about them and can reproduce them, we are 
going to prioritize and fix as part of a release coming 
soon.

We are 
processing inquiries/requests/defects in real time and are scheduling an update 
for the coming weeks. Theitems some customers seem to be 
experiencing areclustering aroundfolder permissions, iis 
configurations andcontacts.

Several of us are working this weekend and prioritizing/researching and fixingissues as they come 
in. No doubt this is a big transition (in terms of environmental 
requirements with .IIS/.net) andnote that 
wealso working to support 
other http servers (e.g. apache) as well as make overall folder permissions/iis 
setup more automated as part of the install. We're not sure why some of 
the permission settings are not being set during the initial installation but more details soon.

Bye 
for now,

kg

  We've planned our upgrade for tomorrow, but now I'm 
  second guessing this decision. 
  
  I'm not interested in insiders making excuses for 
  Ipswitch either. What I would like is real information on what problems 
  exist.
  
  I understand the Mac issue... we knew that one going 
  in.
  
  I'm unclear on the web messaging issue. Is it true 
  that you can no longer get to the web client by simply entering the official 
  host name of the mail server: mail.xyz.com and you now have to go 
  to mail.xyz.com/client ? If this is the case it's a deal breaker for 
  me. Why anyone would do that is beyond my comprehension.
  
  I really had hopes that Ipswitch was back on the right 
  track, but it sounds like this is more of the same old stuff if they've again 
  released a non functional product.
  
  The lame excuses for Ipswitch are BS. They 
  released the product and it should work as advertised. Period. I 
  am not a beta tester and don't care to be one.
  
  So I hope this or a new thread can give us the truth 
  about what are the real changes, what works and what doesn't.

There seems to be too many

many users to reeducate my clients. I think my best bet at this point 
is to roll back to 8.2. Ive been using Imail since version 6 and have 
never had  nor anticipated any major issues like what I many others have 
encountered with what seems to be a premature release of the 2006 
version. I did not make a backup of my 8.2 configuration  so is it

RE: [IMail Forum] Imail on a Cluster

2005-11-29 Thread Jeff Szusz
We are processing between 1100 and 1700 emails a day, this may be
ramping up in the near future, which is part of the reason for this
move.  There are no other external apps running on the servers.  It
would strictly run Imail server and the OS.  

The hardware was a system that was purchased for something else but
could not handle the I/O that was necessary so we are looking to use it
for some critical application to our business that will use to the full
potential the cluster, otherwise a huge waste of money (and in my
opinion still is,but they want to use it this way instead of using it as
2 separate servers).

RE: [IMail Forum] Imail on a Cluster

2005-11-29 Thread Jeff Szusz
Let me point out that this is not my choice!  We are currently running
on a single processor with no issues whatso ever.  But because we
might be getting a large contract they feel that high availability is
the way to go and since someone screwed up and ordered this hardware (it
is a few years old) and it is becoming available that this is the
solution that they want to use.  I agree that it is overkill, stupid,
etc, etc but I am the grunt and just do as the powers tha tbe say,
unfortunately sometimes.
Essentially the cost has already been depreciated and this isn't costing
them any money (except licensing costs) and they have to try and make
this bad purchase seem like it wasn't a waste of company dollars.

Jeff, we process over 5 emails a day on a single proc 2003 server
running declude antispam and antivirus... and we have plenty of room for
expansion. If you have 20 grand + for a SAN  2003 Cluster, go for it.
But if you are stuck within the financial constraints that the rest of
us operate in, then you might want to look at some alternatives.  One of
the options I haven't seen tossed around yet is Store And Forward.
(Search the Knowledge Base or Email Archive).  This is a good (and
relatively cheap hardware-wise) solution which will provide some
redundancy to your operation.

We are processing between 1100 and 1700 emails a day, this may be 
ramping up in the near future, which is part of the reason for this 
move.  There are no other external apps running on the servers.  It 
would strictly run Imail server and the OS.

The hardware was a system that was purchased for something else but 
could not handle the I/O that was necessary so we are looking to use it

for some critical application to our business that will use to the full

potential the cluster, otherwise a huge waste of money (and in my 
opinion still is,but they want to use it this way instead of using it 
as
2 separate servers).

Same error here.

Regarding the requirement for IIS6, I run IMail on a box that is also

so, does it need to be bound to port 80?

[IMail Forum] Emergency ... SMTP refuses connections after migration

2005-11-05 Thread Jeff Hitchcock
I just completed migrating a bunch of domains from one iMail server to a
new one and the new server's SMTP server is refusing all incoming
connections on all IPs bound to the server.

Sending via web mail works fine. 

During migration of domains, the IP was removed from the old server,
verified unpingable, ARP cache on the gateway router cleared, IP added
to the new server, verified pingable.

The new server has several IPs assigned, including 216.68.227.3, .20,
and .71 (was the old). SMTP is configured to listen on all IPs. 

Local IPs are specifically white list in the relay for addresses
options in the SMTP Security tab. Each IP of interest is included in a
group (216.68.227.0|255.255.255.0) and individually. Yet all attempts by
local servers to connect yield these errors:

20051105 080631 127.0.0.1   SMTPD (ae5701490001) Denied access
from 216.68.227.251
20051105 080644 127.0.0.1   SMTPD (ae6401490002) Denied access

20051105 080805 127.0.0.1   SMTPD (aeb501490010) Denied access
from 216.68.227.7

Hi All,

I'm the Director of Product Management at Ipswitch.  In addition to
running
PM at Ipswitch, I'm also personally managing the Messaging and
Collaboration
product line.

Certainly this isn't an Ipswitch sales venue, and discussion about other
vendor's products is okay, but I'd be remiss not to mention that we
(Ipswitch) have completely overhauled our web messaging architecture.
IMail
web messaging has been in beta for the past 2 months and we've received
lots
of excellent feedback that has been incorporated into the final release,
coming in approximately one month.

I'm not trying to discredit the merits of the MailBee WebMail Pro
solution
but the upcoming IMail Web Messaging will include lots of features
(Inbox-Drafts-Sent and Deleted folders, composer with rich text editor,
multipart mime support, rules, contacts, synchronized contacts with
workgroupshare, preferences...) all of which are included in our base
product which, back by popular demand, will be the IMail standalone
server.

Starting in approximately one month, IMail Server (straight-up, no
Antivirus, no Antispam, just straight IMail) will be offered at 5 user
levels, to match the same ones used today for ICS Standard and ICS
Premium.
The base IMail product will also include the new unified Web
Administration
interface which has also gone through exhaustive beta and usability
testing.

Due to popular demand, here's what we ended up adopting...

MailBee WebMail Pro http://www.afterlogic.com/mailbee/webmail_pro.asp.

Cost was $199, and it has HTML email editing capabilities.

They're working on an official browser compatibility list, so I don't
know
about Mac compatibility, but I did find that the HTML editing did not
work
in Netscape 8 in IE mode and Opera.  In those cases, the user doesn't
know,
they just have a text editing control.

Expanded browser compatibility and calendaring will be added in the
upcoming
release (free to those who already purchased).

We liked the interface, and the fact that there was no account setup
necessary... just provide a login and password to the mail server and
it creates the account automatically.  Mail is cached locally in the
database as well, so that could be a useful feature for those who use
webmail and a mail client interchangeably.

Alex at Afterlogic (the company that makes it) was also very helpful and
responsive in fixing a bug we found, and freely adds to his suggested
feature list... so support seems good.  And it's ASP, so the source is
available for modification.

Oh, and it's easily skinnable...

Hope this helps.

Darin.

[IMail Forum] Web Mail framing - how to remove?

2005-10-24 Thread Jeff Hitchcock
I'm in the process of moving an iMail install to a new server. After
installing iMail on the new box, I created a dummy account to verify
that everything was working. When I connected to the Webmail using a
browser, I noticed that the login page was framed -- at the top with a
page that has the name of the host in pink and at the bottom with a link
to Ipswitch. If I connect directly to login.cgi there is no framing.
This did not exist on my older server, which has been upgraded many
times from its original 7.05 install.

I've looked in the online help, in this message archive, and at Ipswitch
and cannot find any instructions on how to remove this framing.

How is it done?

I'm in the process of moving an iMail install to a new server. After
installing iMail on the new box, I created a dummy account to verify
that
everything was working. When I connected to the Webmail using a browser,
I
noticed that the login page was framed -- at the top with a page that
has
the name of the host in pink and at the bottom with a link to Ipswitch.
If I
connect directly to login.cgi there is no framing.
This did not exist on my older server, which has been upgraded many
times
from its original 7.05 install.

I've looked in the online help, in this message archive, and at Ipswitch
and
cannot find any instructions on how to remove this framing.

How is it done?

RE: [IMail Forum] AOL rejects...

2005-10-20 Thread Jeff Hitchcock
I had this happen a while ago, and it meant that AOL has marked your
mail server as a source of too many messages marked by AOL users as
spam. In response, they basically throttle you down to zero for a long
time (days to weeks). 

I had to call the AOL postmaster several times to get my outbound mail
server white listed. Once I finally got someone who understood what I
was saying, the technician was able to take care of it immediately and
the mail began to flow at once.

RE: [IMail Forum] AOL rejects...

2005-10-20 Thread Jeff Hitchcock
I get the AOL postmaster reports and, unfortunately, they're not helpful
in my case.

Some AOL users are marking a diabetes support newsletter I send as spam,
even though (a) it's not commercial and (b) they had to double opt in to
get it (send request, get email, confirm they want it). It's the old
problem of people signing up for a mailing list and forgetting they did.

Running mailing lists is death from a 1,000 complaints.

First off, please forgive my previous blank response. Accidental send.

You may also want to visit the feedback link and set up a feedback for
your  server's  IP.  That  will  give  you  an idea of what is getting
reported  by  AOL  customers as Spam from your server. The AOL account
will not be shown, of course.

RE: [IMail Forum] Junk Mail Box 15gb

2005-10-19 Thread Jeff Dove
I am having this issue as well.
Here are the responses I received when I posted to this list:

 I believe this is a common issue - See this post from the archive.
 This may help.
http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum@list.ipswitch.com/msg93389.html

 Darrell

 I have had about 5 users over the past month that will 'all of a sudden'
 have a Junk Email.mbx file that is 20-40GB in size, thus taking all my
 free disk space. When I monitor these files, they are constantly growing
 until there is no space left. Of course this stops all Imail services
 from working because of the lack of disk space.

I've had this happen twice and both times it was a user mbx file containing
client data. No Junk Email involved.

The first time it consumed all of the available disk space and bad things
happened. The second time, I caught it before all the space was gone and
the user just lost a day's worth of client correspondence because I
restored the folder to its previous day's state. The bad file is 11GB in
size
and defies my efforts to look at it. I don't know if it will compress.

Subject: [IMail Forum] Junk Mail Box 15gb

   Hi All,

  I had a very strange problem that for the life of me I can't figure out.
We just upgraded to ICS last week, and have Declude 3.0.5.5.  Both running
on a 2k3 server with ample processor and memory.  Yesterday morning I got a
warning stating that mail wasn't able to be delivered, etc.  I checked and
we were out of disk space.  I go through the e-mail directories and found 1
user that had a 15gb junk mail folder sitting in her IMAP user dir.  However
at her Outlook 2003, nothing showed to be in her junk mail folder.  It was
tying up the whole server and I couldn't attempt to open the file, or even
view her Directory tab in IAdmin.  The only thing I could do was stop IMAP,
delete the file, and start the service again.

  This user doesn't receive a lot of mail, I think her main.mbx is only 700k
or so.  This has been the only incident of its kind ever.  

  Anybody have any ideas of what could have caused this?  One other strange
thing that happened directly after this.. I had a couple users complain that
they had missing msgs in their Inbox after I deleted this file and started
the IMAP service back up.  I'm at a loss..

RE: [IMail Forum] Setting up Primary as Store and Forward

2005-10-13 Thread Jeff Szusz
Anyone have any comments: 

We are in the process of moving our corporate mail onto a different mail
server.  What we would like to setup is the store and forward feature if
the new server ever has to be rebooted.  

Now I have the instructions as far as how to do the store and forward my
question is this, all instructions state that the domain for which you
are doing the store and forward should not exist in Imail.  

What are the procedures for removing the domain if it is the primary and
everything underneath is setup as virtual?

If I were to just delete the primary would the first virtual take over
as the primary?

Any questions please feel free to ask, any info you could provide me
with would be greatly appreciated Thanks in advance Jeff

[IMail Forum] IMail versions

2005-10-06 Thread Jeff Dove








Hello.



I have two IMail servers on our campus.

One is for Faculty/Staff and the other Students.



The F/S server was upgraded 4 days ago from IMail 8.15 to
8.20.

I did the upgrade because my queue manager on the F/S server
kept hanging up; this has not happened since the upgrade.

The Students server has been IMail 8.21 since that version
came out.

Both are running Windows Server 2003.



The F/S server has about 1400 class email lists setup with
the student email addresses.

The Student server only contains the student email addresses
and 1 email list with all those addresses.



Since the upgrade to the F/S server, when I try to send to
any of the class lists, half of the students on that list do not receive the
email.

When I check the log files, the email is making it to the
Student server, but there is no error or indication of what went wrong.

No messages are left in the queue or spool folder.



Any ideas?

Do I need to be running the same IMail version on both
servers?



Thanks.
Jeff

[IMail Forum] Image maps in email (slightly OT ...)

2005-09-07 Thread Jeff Hitchcock
With phishing spam using image maps, I started blocking incoming email
with image maps in them. There is no reason for an image map to be in an
email (IMHO).

So now I'm seeing more and more companies using image maps in their
email.

Am I off base blocking image maps?

Or has the world of email marketing lost its mind (again)?

[IMail Forum] virus and Junk Email.mbx

2005-09-04 Thread Jeff Dove








Hello.



I am running IMail 8.15 on a Windows 2003 server with 120GB
worth of HDDs.

Currently, there is about 40GB free.



I have had about 5 users over the past month that will all
of a sudden have a Junk Email.mbx file that is 20-40GB in size, thus
taking all my free disk space.

When I monitor these files, they are constantly growing until
there is no space left.

Of course this stops all Imail services from working because
of the lack of disk space.

I manually delete the files and all is well.

I have run anti-virus software on this server, but find
nothing.



Has anyone seen this? If so, can anyone offer a reason
or solution?



Thank you.



Jeff

The phone number to call is 1-888-212-5537. You'll need to know the

send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED], which will reply with

[IMail Forum] Server Issues

We are seeing an issue with 2 of our Imail 
servers.
The server will be 
running just fine then it will have the following error
The server 
was unable to allocate from the system nonpaged pool because the pool was empty. 

When this happens 
the Processor will go up to close to 100%
The only thing that 
will bring it back is a reboot and then it will run fine after 
that.

We are only seeing 
this on the Imail servers. We have many other servers without this 
issue.
We are currently 
running ver 8.15HF2 on 1 and 8.12 on the other

Any help would be

[IMail Forum] User Not Receiving Mail

2005-05-25 Thread Jeff Szusz
Ok I have a user who is being a royal pain.  She believes that since she got
a new pc she isn't receiving all of the emails sent to her.  She is only
receiving select emails from certain contacts and some of the contacts she
had before are no longer able to contact her.
We looked into our logs and have found the following log file:

As you can see it was never delivered to a local mail box.  It states it was

[IMail Forum] Filtering apache@, nobody@, anonymous@

2005-05-06 Thread Jeff Hitchcock
In the past few days I've seen a large increase in spam from apache@,
nobody@, and anonymous@ addresses that look to be coming from
compromised Apache servers and PHP-based community sites. In response, I
have started blocking any address with those names.

Has anyone else here seen a similar problem?

Is blocking these a reasonable response to this new problem?

Are there better alternatives?

What I said was:

SPF is not a solution if you support users who forward email, as
forwarding breaks SPF.  

I didn't say SPF was a bad solution for everyone. And the real problem
is people who sign up for mailing lists using an email address that
exists only to forward to their real address. I wish I could prevent

You may not think SPF is a solution, but thousands of other mail admins 
do. It's for this very reason that it'll help his problem. It doesn't 
sound like he has a very complicated userbase, most of his users are 
probably SMTP AUTHing their mail. I know the catches with forwards, but 
it really doesn't sound like he'd run into any of these quirks. Just

The one thing that you can do, is set SPF DNS records up on your 
domains. While this doesn't stop anything, it will at least let 
SPF-configured mail servers block these before they can even be sent 
(and long before the bounce). I'd say it's worth doing, to save you
some

hassle. Eventually end-users maybe try to pursue you, thinking you sent

'em, and you'll have to do the whole education thing with each of them.

Mail Relay Options: relay for local users only
Allow remote mail to local groups (checked)
Check valid sender (checked)  Auto-deny possible hack attempts
  

(checked)
  

Disable SMTP VRFY command (checked)

Any thoughts on what I should do?  The returned message shows about 
25 email
addresses that were invalid so it is getting sent to a lot of
  

people.
  

Thanks for your help.

Chances are the mails are not even originating at your server so your 
security settings are going to have absolutely no effect. The trouble 
is, and this may come as a surprise, the sort of people who send these



  

types of unsavory messages are not always honest (I know the shock of 
it all) and as a result don't always use their own email address in 
the sender or reply-to fields.

If you still have the failure message and it still has the headers of 
the original message in it you can look back through the 'received by'



  

headers to get the IP address or server name that the message was sent



  

from (this may also be forged).

Once you have done this and confirmed that it was not your mail server



  

that the message originated from you can sit back, relax, have a drink



  

and quietly seethe at the damage these less than honest people are 
doing to the reputation of the e-mail address associated with the 
unsavory mail because there is just about nothing else you can do and 
absolutely no way to stop them using your address unless you can 
physically find them.

The good news is though that this sort of thing usually stops on its 
own when the people sending the mail decide to either pick on someone 
else (if it's a malicious attack) or change email addresses because 
yours is being blocked by too many people now.

Sorry for the bad news.

[IMail Forum] Followed LDAP Instructions, but now....

2005-05-02 Thread Jeff




I followed the earlier posted instruction and the 
LDAP service now starts, BUT when the LDAP servie is running, I am unable to log 
into webmail AND I can't access users in Imail administrator.

Any suggestions 
?


RE: [IMail Forum] Spoof problem?

2005-05-02 Thread Jeff Hitchcock
SPF is not a solution if you support users who forward email, as
forwarding breaks SPF. 

The current problem is a new virus or repeat of an old virus that
includes a ZIP file with a virus. Just started up again today. Seen a
bunch, filtering on body content is easy.

The one thing that you can do, is set SPF DNS records up on your 
domains. While this doesn't stop anything, it will at least let 
SPF-configured mail servers block these before they can even be sent 
(and long before the bounce). I'd say it's worth doing, to save you some

hassle. Eventually end-users maybe try to pursue you, thinking you sent 
'em, and you'll have to do the whole education thing with each of them.
