Hi, I'm sorry to insist on this subject, but I'm still stuck on the
matter of getting autoreplies made by sqwebmail back to work.
Still - I have found out some more on the subject:
It looks like mailbot is not providing sendmail with a valid
sender (-f). This applies both to using the courier-sendmail
(/usr/local/bin/sendmail) as to the legacy built-in sendmail
(/usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail). In fact, reading the manual,
it looks to me like it never happened before, yet it used
to work...
------ The short version ------
Autoreply-rules created by sqwebmail look like this, for example:
if (($SIZE > 1))
{
AUTOREPLYFROM=$FROM
`/usr/local/bin/mailbot -A "X-Sender: $FROM" -A "From:
$AUTOREPLYFROM" -m "./Maildir/autoresponses/urlaub" $SENDMAIL -t -f ""`
}
this rule produces a "sendmail: Unable to submit message" line
in /var/log/maillog and does not deliver the autoreply.
If I change it manually, and add a $FROM within
the quotes after -f, it works:
if (($SIZE > 1))
{
AUTOREPLYFROM=$FROM
`/usr/local/bin/mailbot -A "X-Sender: $FROM" -A "From:
$AUTOREPLYFROM" -m "./Maildir/autoresponses/urlaub" $SENDMAIL -t -f
"$FROM"`
}
Do You have any hint on what's going wrong?
Is this an sqwebmail problem, or a mailbot problem, or did I miss
something that changed?
I only found this in the ChangeLog,
2006-09-17 Mr. Sam <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* maildrop/main.C (run): -f ""? I really mean it.
How is the sendmail binary supposed to know about the sender?
I'm a bit confused here...
Thank You a lot in advance for help...
Regards,
Lorenzo
------ The long version ------
Autoreplies which are set up with sqwebmail do not work.
Instead, the mail log reports: sendmail: Unable to submit message.
The setup:
FreeBSD 6-STABLE, running courier 0.54 (latest port release)
maildrop is called as set up in /usr/local/etc/courier/courierd:
DEFAULTDELIVERY='| /usr/local/bin/maildrop -V 2 -w 85'
/usr/local/etc/maildroprc
takes up the main processing (such as SA and other stuff),
and then passes it over to the local rules:
...
exception {
include "$HOME/.mailfilter"
}
The sqwebmail-generated file ($HOME/.mailfilter) looks like this:
#MFMAILDROP=2
#
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE. This is an automatically generated filter.
FROM='[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
import SENDER
if ($SENDER eq "")
{
SENDER=$FROM
}
##Op:islargerthan
##Header:
##Value:1
##Folder:+urlaub dsn=1 days=5
##From:
##PlainString
##Name:urlaubchen
if (($SIZE > 1))
{
AUTOREPLYFROM=$FROM
`/usr/local/bin/mailbot -A "X-Sender: $FROM" -A "From:
$AUTOREPLYFROM" -m "./Maildir/autoresponses/urlaub" $SENDMAIL -t -f ""`
}
to "./Maildir/."
