Hi, I'm quite new to qmail
I've managed to install and configure it (1.03) for smtp.
The trouble is with pop3 (which is started :-)).
I'd like to have all mail addreses like user@domain
There is an MX record in the DNS pointing to mail.domain
I have put "domain" in control/rcpthosts and control/local
One user's entry in users/assign looks like:
=user:user:uid:gid:/home/user:::
+user-:user:uid:gid:/home/user:-::
=user@domain:user:uid:gid:/home/user:::
Since now, users can send mail (through windows mailers) but cannot receive
it by pop3. The mail just waits in the mailbox.
What am I missing ?
TIA

All of this is irrelevant to POP3. users/assign, control/rcpthosts, and
control/local, have only to do with mail delivery, not retrieval.
What POP daemon are you using? When you say "it's started," what exactly do you
mean? What did you do to invoke it?

here's my setup. someone sends mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] which is a
remailer which moves the mail to my geocities acct. from their fetchmail
picks it up and drops it qmail. my problem is this. once qmail gets a
hold of my mail, it's adding a section to the header which makes all of my
mail look like it's coming from "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" with no subject. I
don't think the problem is with fetchmail as i have fetchmail set to not
make any changes to the headers. any thoughts? please cc: me at the
address below as well as sending any responses to the list. thanx :)

How would I can I get all the mail to any user at domain1.com to be sent to
domain2.com?
I have tried:
control/virtualdomains
domain1.com:alias-test
alias/.qmail-test-default
| forward "$[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
But I get [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead of [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Thanks for any help in advance.

Hi. Here's a small utility I wanted to share
(and get some peer review on;)
Serialmail seemed to me almost ideal for dialup
links. I never liked fetchmail.. But then again,
fetchmail could easily operate under ssh.
qmtpoverssh is a simple wrapper for serialqmtp
and qmail-qmtpd that runs under maildirserial.
It runs serialqmtp on one end but tunnels the
connection through ssh and runs qmail-qmtpd on
the other end (note qmail-qmtpd does not have to
be listening on a port - it will used directly).
Usage is like this:
maildirserial dir prefix qmtpoverssh prefix2 hostname user
prefix and prefix2 will usually be the same;
look at the documentation of maildirserial and
serialqmtp. hostname and user specify where the
ssh connection will be made.
You have to have RSA authentication or something
similar for this to work. I suggest making a new
key with an empty password and limited access.
TODO:
give qmail-qmtpd some environment variables to
make it log information more nicely.

There's a network 'mycom.com' which is a LAN disconnected from the Internet. We would
like to have a modem on the RedHat Linux + qmail 1.03 server dialup an ISP or our
consultancy's mail server (also RedHat 5.2 + qmail 1.03) directly and exchange mail
(queued email from mycom.com and Internet email queued on our server) two times a day.
Our server has the virtual host 'mycom.com.' The goal is to allow the users of
mycom.com to send and receive Internet email, but only have the Linux server connect
twice a day. How would this be done? Could it be done using serialmail?
Regards,
Eric Ess
My normal thoughts would be for ETRN or UUCP. UUCP is specifically
designed as a dialup mail/news exchange protocal. I'm not as famalier
with how qmail would do this.

Configure Qmail normally, except that you'll initialize control/smtproutes
to have all non-local E-mail smarthosted through your ISP's mail server.
Then, motify the ip-up script to automatically send a SIGHUP to qmail-send
when the connection to the Internet is established, causing all pent up
E-mail to be flushed to the smarthost.

No, it's far from unique, I mumbled on about this for quite a while a
few months ago. No MTA is perfect for this situation but qmail is
pretty good.
My home network is called isbd.mynet and uses IP addresses in the
range 192.168.13.x, I use qmail to send and receive mail to/from an
ISP via dialup in almost the manner you describe.
The only difference in my case is that mail is sent and received
whenever the connection is brought up by another application. I have
a patch to qmail on my system called 'holdremote' which holds mail
queued until you switch off a flag.
I can't give exact details of my setup from here as I'm at work but if
you'd like to know more then E-Mail my home address below.

I am trying to install qmail on my RH5.2 (kernel 2.0.36) box using the qmail
Memphis RPM.
The 3 rpms which go with qmail (functions, daemontools & ucspi-tcp have all
installed ok
When i try and install the qmail-1.03-11ucspi.i386.rpm i get :
"failed dependencies - sendmail conflicts with qmail"
If i try to uninstalled sendmail i get:
" sendmail provides smtp daemon -
fetchmail requires smtp daemon
mutt requires smtp daemon
nmh requires smtp daemon"
I will need fetchmail to collect mail from my isp
(note: i am not at present using the linux box for mail - but intend to)
Regards,
Stephen

You should be able to use the --force option to RPM to forcibly remove
sendmail. After that, the Qmail rpm should install correctly.
