Re: [vchkpw] testing methods
On Thu, 30 Oct 2003, Charles Sprickman wrote: Hi, My question is this, if I do vaddomain isp.com so that I can test my syncing script, and I want to keep qmail in the dark about the existence of this domain, can I simply pull the isp.com entries out of the rcpthosts and assign files? Meaning, I don't want people using test.isp.com to have their mail to isp.com delivered locally. Would that work? For what it's worth, removing from assign and virtualdomains is also necessary (at least in my case where the test users are using the same server for outgoing smtp). Otherwise, qmail-send still tries to deliver locally. Charles

I hate the look of that thing, The cosmetics can be changed. I found the user-interface for the filters to be unintuitive, but I'm told that those used to Outlook can figure it out (if they were competent with Outlook). Perhaps I'll see what kind of maildrop file it writes for vacation and steal that. If you're just doing this for intelligent people with shell access then that may be the simplest answer. For us, the ability for customers who are five cans short of a six-pack to be able to set up vacation responders without having shell access is important. Although the qmail-autorespond has some tempting features, including mysql support for storing the away message and the list of email addresses it has replied to. With the sqwebmail filters you can tell it to save the mail that people sent you (to a sub-folder if that's what you want) - surely better than only knowing who mailed you but not knowing what they wrote. But the most important feature (from my perspective) is that it can be set not to reply to the same address within a specified period of time. Waking up to find all my disk space eaten by a vacation responder loop is one of my recurring nightmares. Plus I think I can maintain some qmailadmin compatibility. That, as yet, has not been officially dealt with. There is still some disagreement as to the best way to handle it. -- Paul Allen Softflare Support
Re: [vchkpw] Re: qmail installation script 1.3.6 final release
Congratulations. You've been here longer than I have. The only thing is that, even with my notoriously-poor memory, I remember seeing MANY announcements from him. At least more than one a month. Well lets make it a rule of tumb, only put out releases every 3 months or so... Like me, I've sometimes put my releases here, but I never put a release post if it's a small typo fix, and I've never heard anyone complaining about my releases... Cause I would like to see releases like that, but not so much like 2-5 times in a month from the same dude... this list isn't for advertising!!

Don't ask me for the name, I've forgotten it; but I'm sure before the week ends you'll have gotten the answer by somebody else here on this list. Have a web interface to modify personnal options for each user (vacation message..) - qmailadmin should be able to rudimentarily do this. [...] Any help please ? What's the setup of POP3 and IMAP regarding to password checks? How do you invoke password checker for this daemons? I know for sure BincIMAP works with vchkpw, seems you've set it up in a wrong way (the same applies to POP3 daemon). -- Best regards Peter Palmreuther Open Up Yer Purses For The Boyz Who Reimburse Us P.S.: Please don't CC me on replies.

RE: [vchkpw] Re: telnet authentification ?
[snip] ::What? webmail? Or POP3 + IMAP? Or all three? But a POP3-Webmail ::technically ain't possible [/snip] Just a point of correction... Horde/IMP uses IMAP or POP3 as a method of accessing the mailstore for a given user (and it is really an inefficient implementation too but that is a discussion for another list). I am not sure about others, but I know IMP has that functionality. Tom Walsh Network Administrator http://www.ala.net/

[vchkpw] IMP, vpopmail, and v-users changing passwords?
So... someone prior to my tenure here set up vpopmail and IMP, but it seems that the current implementation (as he left it) only provides support for UNIX users changing their passwords -- not virtual users. I see where there appears to be some intended support for this, but it looks to me as if that presumes that the Web server is running on the same machine as the mail server -- which (of course!) is not the case for us. Would anyone care to provide a pointer to a hint for how to accomplish allowing virtual users to change their own passwords? We're using vpopmail 5.3.16, horde 2.2.1, and imp 3.1.3 in a FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE environment. Thanks, david -- David H. Wolfskill [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: [vchkpw] Re: qmail installation script 1.3.6 final release
Lol...you all realize that you are generating more noise than the noise that is the root of the discussion. The installation script release updates on a vpopmail list are debateable if you really like being AAAP (As Anal As Possible). But the fact that it is a simple post about a qmail project someone is working on, which (arguably) does very much relate to vpopmail makes me believe it shouldn't be ridiculed. If you really feel the need to tell someone to post to another list, you don't have to be a terrible asshole about it right from the get-go. I think a few people on this list need to get a punching bag and/or a girl friend. PS. Franck, I say post on man.
