Re: [qmailtoaster] vpopmail install error

[Roxanne Sandesara]

Hi Eric,

OK. That seems to have worked everything out. All the pieces and parts seem to 
be running. Now I just have to port in all of my details from my backups.

‘just’. :)

Thank you, Eric,
Roxanne

ClamAV starts differently now (99.2) I'll get that updated in the install 
script.

ClamAV starts using the following:

systemctl start clamav-daemon.service
systemctl enable clamav-daemon.service
systemctl start clamav-daemon.socket
systemctl enable clamav-daemon.socket

I'd uninstall and reinstall vpopmail and qmail with fresh download.

uninstall:
rpm -e --nodeps vpopmail qmail

download vpopmail and qmail

install:
rpm -ivh vpopmail
rpm -ivh qmail

Then run 'toaststat' and the command line.

[qmailtoaster] vpopmail install error

[Roxanne Sandesara]

I am in the process of building a new CentOS 7 toaster and trying to port in 
backup materials from an old CentOS 5 toaster. Through a bit of back and forth, 
I’ve managed to get most things installed. I have two niggling problems 
remaining that I need to tackle, and I am suspecting that they are related.

Going through the script recorded files of my installations, I noticed that I 
get the errors:

warning: user vpopmail does not exist - using root
warning: group vchkpw does not exist - using root
warning: user vpopmail does not exist - using root
warning: group vchkpw does not exist - using root

I had to go back a couple of times to get some of the packages to install, and 
I suspect that’s where this crept in. As near as I can tell, everything is now

RE: [qmailtoaster] How to make mirror all the emails with all the mailbox in another server or storage

[CarlC Internet Services Service Desk]

I’m sure someone else has a better answer, but you could just rsync the 
/home/vpopmail/domains/ area without a delete [that is the 
default for rsync]. It’s just a matter of how many times you want to run it per 
hour…

 

Another possible solution would be to do something like this:

 

Create .qmail- for each email account [the .qmail-* 
files go in /home/vpopmail/domains/ directory] with the following 
contents:

 

/home/vpopmail/domains///Maildir/

/home/vpopmail/domains///Maildir

 

For this to work, you just create the 
/home/vpopmail/domains///Maildir directories with 
proper vpopmail.vchkpw protections. A copy of all inbound email will go to both 
areas, the live [top] one and the bottom [backup] area. The only issue with 
this solution, you don’t have a copy of any sent items if the user is using a 
web interface [and you want to catch those as well].

 

Again, I’m sure someone on the list has a better way to do this than I.

[qmailtoaster] How to make mirror all the emails with all the mailbox in another server or storage

[Chandran Manikandan]

Dear Friends,
I am facing one challenge in my office.

I have 150 email box and 300 forward email accounts.

Some of the users deleted the emails from their email client when they quit
from company.
We are using IMAP account for all the employees.

I have made tap command to retrieve all the users incoming and outgoing
emails.
And i can recover all those emails from that particular account.

In this case, What i am thinking, Why should i make all the emails sync
with another server or storage disk at the same time when deliver the email.

Is it possible to make similar duplicate server or can i make only storage
disk.

In this case if anyone delete the emails from live server, i need to take
all the emails from duplicate storage disk.

Could anyone have the experience.

Please share to me the steps and help me a
