Since I didn't want to put a .qmail file in each user's directory,
I'm using this setup, instead:
- --- /var/qmail/users/assign ----

(12 is the mail group, otherwise deliver cannot deliver the message)

Below are the headers from an email from Outlook 5.0, it ended up in my
mailbox, but I do not see why. I am not the reciepient, nor is thier a cc
list, unless OE 5.0 is not properly sending it??
No bounced msgs should show up in my box, they are sent to
[EMAIL PROTECTED], and no aliases are set up for my box either.

You got it because you were specified as an envelope recipient. The envelope
recipients have nothing to do with what recipients are shown in the header.
(Look at any message you've ever received from this list.)

This isn't a bounce message. Look at the Return-Path. [EMAIL PROTECTED] (the
message alleges) sent this to you as a blind carbon copy.

IMHO, MySQL (www.mysql.com) is a great alternative. It is by far the
fastest, and takes very little resources to run/program with. It's
"free" [you are encouraged to pay $200 or so for commercial use] and
support is way better than any commercial product (it's similar to
qmail support ;-) and you can buy on site support, code customization,
etc, on top of that.
If you envision an extremely large system where you need multiple db
servers and replication between them, etc, this may not be the right
choice.
There is an ezmlm-idx version that supports MySQL
(ftp://ftp.id.wustl.edu/pub/patches/ezmlm-idx-0.321.tar.gz - see the
sub_mysql/ subdir) if you want to get an idea of the C API in action.
Look also at qmail-LDAP, which may do exactly what you want
([EMAIL PROTECTED]) to join that list.

Is there a way to setup a host alias when the host
does not exist. For example, I am trying to setup
email aliases for people's pagers.
I would like to setup a .qmail file alias that
contains [EMAIL PROTECTED] and have pages
send pages to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Your help/suggestions will be gratefully appreciated.

Yes, you set up a virtual domain (with MX record) for the host . See
qmail FAQ.

I'm not sure I understand. If you want to forward the message, put
"&[EMAIL PROTECTED]" into ~/.qmail-888999222 (where "~" is the
owner of the virtual domain).

Thanks for responding. You were on the right track
except it is the opposite of what I am looking
for (Sorry if I was not very clear with my question).
I want a mechanism to say [EMAIL PROTECTED]
(I dont want people to memorize pager numbers. It is easier to remember
[EMAIL PROTECTED] "pager"
is a fictitious/pseudo host).
So I am looking for a .qmail file that would
contain the &[EMAIL PROTECTED] entry).

I was having an issue with aliases and that they weren't being consulted
before a local user when a virtualdomain was involved. So I found this in
the list archives:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
You might make the domain a virtual domain instead of a local domain. In
control/virtualdomains, put:
yourdomain.com:alias-yourdomain
In ~alias/.qmail-yourdomain-default, put:
| fastforward -d -p /etc/aliases.cdb
| forward "$DEFAULT"
fastforward will get first whack at delivery. The -p causes fastforward to
exit 0 if delivery fails, causing delivery to be handled by the next line,
which forwards the mail to the local user $DEFAULT.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm not quite sure what the local user $DEFAULT is, but if there isn't an
alias explicitly setup for a user, I need it to deliver to the local user
that matches. I also just setup a .qmail-alias-aliases that has the above
in it and I forward all my virtual domains when they need specific aliases
to it. I hope this is ok. Thanks

" Reality is just Chaos with better lighting. "
Greetings,
I have been successfully using qmail for 2 weeks thanks to the great people
and their advice on this list. My latest crusade is to change the line in my
email headers that currently state that "qmail was invoked by uid ###" to
"qmail was invoked by network". I have checked the FAQs but have not turned
this up.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jeff Lush
Lets just say I'm a typographical moron. Thanks.

Hello LDAP fans
Here it is: qmail-ldap-1.03-19990501! Available for download from

What is is:
A patch to stock qmail-1.03 to get all user account information

Some of it's greatest features:
- Supports size quotas on user maildirs and mbox
- Handles replies with new qmail-reply
- Supports tarpitting (based on a patch by Chris Johnson)
- Supports OpenLDAP 1.2 and Mozilla Directory SDK
- Includes Antispam-Features (based on a patch by Lindsay Haisley,
Rask Lambertsen and Lionel Widdifield)
- Supports automatic maildir creation when the first mail arrives
- Support for SHA, MD5, MD4, RIPE-MD160 and clear text passwords
- Support for NS-MTA-MD5 encrypted passwords used by Netscape Mail
server
up to version 2.xx (and later if you simply upgraded).
- It also supports the password format used by Software.com's
Post.Office
- Fix for qmail-pop3d to make Netscape's mail download status bar
working (based on a patch by [EMAIL PROTECTED])
- Fix for oversized DNS packets (based on a patch by Christopher
K. Davis)
What's still to do:
- a lot
- Support for native server clustering
A mailing list for the discussion of qmail-ldap is available. Send
mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Have fun!

Hello.
It says that the system administrator can set up Maildir as the deafault for
everybody by creating a maildir in the new-user template.
Can I have a file/path for this as I can't find it.

That is correct. I suspect that the ORBS list does this also.

Thank you!

Is there a way of executing procmail do ~/.procmailrc, and if email is
not rejected for a user, it is delivered into a ~/Maildir?
Thanks,
John
BTW, eg., use my standard spam filter for users that want it, but want
to fetch mail via POP3 in a Maildir.
