I have about 200 users on system. Everyone has a file called 'Mailbox' and I would like to change 'Maildir' so I could use qmail pop-3. Is this possible with some script, that root could change them to Maildir? I don't want to: su user , /var/qmail/bin/makemaildir, so I am just asking, is there easier way?:)

Make sure some freak program hasn't changed all the ownerships on those mailboxes (ie ls -l /home/mailhome/a or whatever and check the files are owned by their respective owners). Also try a killall -HUP tcpserver or inetd (depending on what you use), in case it is somehow managed to lock all the files open.

The users under /home/mailhome/a/... /home/mailhome/b/... are not listed in the /etc/passwd file. What happens was, when a user connects to the pop server (port 110), qmail-popup will run, as follows: qmail-popup renegade.myweb.com.my /bin/checkpassword_mysql /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir - this will check the user and password against the mysql database. The previous machine that we have (what happened was I was the unlucky fellow to do the dirty job of replicating one whole webserver, and making having to make sure everything work :-) ) also had the same setup and things worked, not till yesterday after I replaced the server ...sigh... Now Dave, you mentioned that delivery was not under user *alias*, I think I'l run qmail under user alias? > -Dave --mel
Hi, I think I found the problem. In our old machine, the lists of users are kept in a file assign.<timestamp> in /var/qmail/users. In the old system, the files look like this (a snapshot): =0000:alias:1000:1001:/home/mailhome/j/jimmy::: =00000:alias:1000:1001:/home/mailhome/0/00000::: =007:alias:1000:1001:/home/mailhome/0/007::: =007007:alias:1000:1001:/home/mailhome/0/007007::: =00ics:alias:1000:1001:/home/mailhome/0/00ics::: =00isss:alias:1000:1001:/home/mailhome/0/00isss::: =0123:alias:1000:1001:/home/mailhome/0/0123::: ... In this case, all users belong to gid 1001, which is the gid of alias. The new system (server, I mean) have different gid. Okay, now I know one potential source(s) of the problem, how do I rebuild this file? --mel (they put a young sysad for the job :) )
Try: sed s/\:1001\:/\:new_GUD\: assign.<timestamp> >assign.whatever It will go through and replace :1001: with :new_GID: and write the output to assign.whatever. If you don't redirect the output, it sends it to the terminal (screen). If this is a huge file, that's probably not something you want to do as it will be awhile before you can regain control of the terminal while it dumps the contents of the file to the screen. The reason that you would want to include the extra : characters is so that you doin't inadvertantly nuke one of the usernames that might have 1001 in it. Just in case you didn't know, you use \ to "escape" the character so that the command line doesn't try to interpret it. The : means "null" and is used in shell scripting for "doing nothing" in conditional statements where you might expect to use a command, like: if [ some test ] then : else do something fi I'm no sed expert, but this is a fairly simple basic use of it. There may be someone that can give you something fancier, or perhaps with a little more error correction, but this is the gist of it, and will work as written. Of course, don't forget to run qmail-newu after making changes to your assign file. -CT > -----Original Message----- > From: spoon fork [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, July 11, 2000 10:52 AM > To: Dave Sill > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: deferral: > Unable_to_switch_to_/home/mailhome/s/simonyjh:_access_denied._ > (#4.3.0)/ > > > Hi, > > I think I found the problem.

The : means "null" and > is used in shell scripting for "doing nothing" You don't need to escape these colons. `:' is a builtin command, but it's not a special character; as far as command *parsing* goes, `:' is just like `b'. paul

Hello, I'm running qmail for a long time without any problems. Now I should run qbiff for a couple of users, but without success. Diging in the source I found this: if (!(st.st_mode & 0100)){ close (fdtty); continue; } I'm not a C programmer, so please tell me what this means ? As far as I can read it, in st.st_mode is stored mode of respective tty line. In my case this is /dev/ttyp0 wich mode is 20620. (20620 & 0100) is 0, so fdtty gets closed and qbiff doesn't send notify. Is this mean, that in order to receive notifications about incoming mails I must set all my tty's in mode 700 ? Why ? Please feel free to correct me if I'm totally wrong. And excuse my poor english ;-) Thank you for your time. -- =- --rw------- =--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--= Theodor Milkov Administrator IP Networks Davidov Electric Ltd.

As far as I can read it, in st.st_mode is > stored mode of respective tty line. In my case this Correct. It's the obscurity of how certain commands, such as biff and mesg set/define access for other commands like qbiff, write, talk etc which want to write to your tty. You may want to look at the man pages for mesg to help understand what's going on, but essentially dmesg/biff set the mode bits and use group tty access to determine whether or not qbiff/write/talk can or should write something to your tty. > is /dev/ttyp0 wich mode is 20620.

I would think 0100 or '+x'. Regards.

The biggest problem users have is when their mail system is rewriting the envelope sender and from addresses on outgoing mail, as is typical with many sendmail installations. Chances are the system you're trying to unsubscribe from is mangling addresses in one direction or the other, or both. Try posting a complete set of headers from a message you receive from this mailing list.

I didn't see it in the ps output. DNS lookups don't cause qmail to stop functioning, just defer mail. supervise and qmail are different things entirely. supervise can stop and qmail will continue to function. The idea behind supervise is that it watches to see if qmail is running. If not, it starts it. If supervise stops running all you lose is the process checking that qmail is running. qmail itself is unaffected. Are you sure qmail wasn't running? Did you find 'exiting' in the qmail logs ? What else was in the logs ? > Any ideas? Do I need to run DJB's DNS daemon also? Thanks! It wouldn't be a bad idea though I doubt it's related to this problem!

If there is a problem with the DNS for the recipients domain you would see this happening. qmail encounters a temporary error and the message is deferred to be retried later. > qmail goes through this 0-96-0 cycle 5 or 6 times. Either getting a CNAME > failure or saying it delivered to remote. Hmm. Is your trigger OK? This kind of cyclic all-nothing-all delivery pattern is often caused by wrong modes on /var/qmail/queue/lock/trigger. They should look like prw--w--w- 1 qmails qmail 0 Jul 11 16:00 /var/qmail/queue/lock/trigger > Did I run out of resources? Was someone jamming up the mail server with > huge mailings?? If so, qmail would log it before barfing. Did you actually find 'exiting' in the qmail logs?

I grepped the maillog and no exiting was found. As for tcpserver logs, I don't log that info to speed up the server.... I only get qmail messages. I'm not sure about the triggers, but no one was logged in (that I could find) and the only thing that I saw abnormal was the remote concurrency go from 0-96 (first due to CNAME failures), then remote slowly declined to 0, then it ramped back up to 96 with what appeared as remotes going through, then it trickled down to 0, then back up to 96 with more remote deliveries. I never see concurrency remotes that high.. generally 20 is a big number.. that's why I think that has *something* to do with it. Was it just one of those things??? I really don't see any errors other than CNAME lookups.... Paul Farber Farber Technology [EMAIL PROTECTED] Ph 570-628-5303 Fax 570-628-5545

Though I would suggest looking at multilog (from daemontools). I find it very efficient. > I'm not sure about the triggers, but no one was logged in (that I could > find) and the only thing that I saw abnormal was the remote concurrency go > from 0-96 (first due to CNAME failures), then remote slowly declined to 0, > then it ramped back up to 96 with what appeared as remotes going through, > then it trickled down to 0, then back up to 96 with more remote > deliveries. I think it's quite likely you're seeing qmail merely retrying messages it's had to defer because of DNS problems. Are the 96 messages destined for addresses within the same domain? Or perhaps in domains served by the same nameservers? The scenario could have been something like: 1. qmail receives ~90 messages to be sent to domain X. 2. Domain X has dodgy DNS, messages all get deferred. 3. qmail waits a bit, and tries (all) the deferred messages again. 4. Repeat 2 and 3 until DNS problems get sorted. > I never see concurrency remotes that high.. generally 20 is a big number.. > that's why I think that has *something* to do with it. DNS problems, especially those that manifest themselves as time-outs, will lengthen how long a qmail-remote runs for each delivery attempt. When they run for longer more of them are likely to be running concurrently.

We're not mind readers (well, maybe Dave Sill is).

Meaning what? Individual messages take a while to complete? You have a lot of messages in the queue? There's always a lot of qmail processes running?

These control files only help if you're not bottlenecked elsewhere in your system. So you think you're running into a performance problem? Try answering some of the following: -what hardware (CPU/memory/type and number of disks) are you running on? -what OS and filesystem for the queue (/var/qmail/queue) -is the queue on its own disk? is it on a raid partition? are local deliveries on a raid partition, or a NetApp, or on the same disk as the queue? Is /var/log on a separate disk? -how many local deliveries a day are you doing? How many remote deliveries a day? What network connectivity are you seeing? -are you running with Russell Nelson's big-todo patch? -why do you think you have a performance problem? What does the output of `mailq` show?

The problem is that injection of mail via SMTP (from clients on your local network(s), presumably) seems slow. You did already post the startup scripts you were using for qmail, but I've misplaced that email. Are you using tcpserver? If so, are you disabling identd lookups and name lookups on the remote host (options -H and -R to tcpserver)? That will save you some time on each connect. What is the contents of /var/qmail/control/timeoutsmtpd ? It defaults to 1200 seconds. If you've set this much lower, your clients could timeout if they pause while sending mail.

hi all, i am in the process of applying the ldap patch to qmail. but while i am looking at qmail-ldap.h, i don't know exactly what to put in the fields... like LDAP_MAIL, should i just put the ldap user's email account (meaning only one...)? and could anyone pls explain a little how qmail-ldap works without creating local accounts? or do we have to write scripts to do create them on the mailhost once we got information from ldap and that such homedir does not exists on the mailhost? also what mechanism should i use to deliver the mail once i found my mailhost? should i let qmail do it, or should i just write to nfs?? i've searched the discussions and i found a msg saying that the "to" field needs to be rewritten b4 sending to the mailhost. how can this be done? so many qustions... thanx very much, but i am so eager to set this up asap! manuel. _____________________________________________________________ Global Virtual Desktop Get your free Desktop at http://www.magicaldesk.com

As others have pointed out, the IP address does exist. Two other gentlemen were kind enough to post the name of the ISP that owns it. Have you tried reporting this to that ISP's abuse desk? > And is it possible that this IP is not connecting IP (could tcpserver be > fooled)? Not really. That's the IP address that the kernel thinks the connection is coming from. If it's not really coming from that address, it's a hijacked connection -- difficult under a 'real' OS.

We recently converted our sendmail box to qmail. I've noticed that our queue is now typically 2 to 3 times larger than it was with sendmail. I believe much of that is related to using vpopmail, which doesn't bounce the message until it has been accepted by the smtpd daemon. This, of course, means the message is now stuck in the queue attempting to bounce back to some spammer's non-existent address. However, there also seems to be quite a few more messages deferred to remote hosts that are having problems (failed SMTP, failed after delivery, etc.). I realize these are not qmail issues, but I'm curious why I didn't see this many messages building up under sendmail. Does qmail have different criteria for which messages it continues to try?

That sounds like a problem in the home directory for the user 'georg' Those are the easiest ones to mess up too since they're not in the qmail config directory. Did you possibly remove or change any of your .qmail files? Like a .qmail-default? Try putting a .qmail-default in georg's home directory that contains ./Maildir/ or whatever storage mechanism you use, or even an address to forward all the mail to someone else. Also, make sure you don't have any of those domains in /var/qmail/control/locals that may be moving that mail somewhere before your virtualdomains file is consulted...

I poked around a bit, and there's a (much) earlier thread on this list about running stunnel under tcpserver--apparently the reason stunnel and tcpserver don't (didn't?) get along is that stunnel wants to be argv[0]. There's a patch for stunnel (from 1998, so it probably needs to be modified for the current version). There's also an argv0 program that comes with ucspi-tcp that also looks like it would solve the problem. Finally, there are a few sample startup scripts that imply that that's not really a problem anymore, and stunnel and tcpserver coexist fine. >From searching the archive at <http://www-archive.ornl.gov:8000/> for "tcpserver stunnel": A message describing the problem, which sounds like what I saw, is at: <http://www.ornl.gov/its/archives/mailing-lists/qmail/1998/09/msg00723.html> The message with the (old) patch: <http://www.ornl.gov/its/archives/mailing-lists/qmail/1998/09/msg00743.html> A very informative message from this May, with a cool stunnel startup script, implying that stunnel will indeed run under tcpserver: <http://www.ornl.gov/its/archives/mailing-lists/qmail/2000/05/msg01621.html> That last message also implies that qmail-smtpd will run under stunnel without modification.

from the tcpserver man pages... -llocalname Do not look up the local host name; use localname for TCPLOCALHOST. Does this mean that it queries our DNS server for the local host's name during inbound mail delivery? If so, an -l`hostname` would probably be quicker and lighten load on the DNS server, right?

Hello All, Are there any scripts out there that will convert from Imail type mailboxes (mbox) to Maildir, while keeping the message intact? I don't want emails with the message header as part of the body.. What are my options with using let's say, qmail-inject if I have the to:,cc:,bcc: could I dump messages into the right Maildirs without actually sending the ccs and bccs out? Any ideas? J
Anyone have any thoughts on the best way to convert between Imail-style mbox to Maildir? I want to keep the message header intact so that it doesn't appear as part of the email body. I'm open to writing a script that grabs the To:,Cc: & Subject: sections out of the header and using qmail-inject to toss them into the right maildirs. All I want to make sure is that Qmail doesn't attempt to mail all the ccs & bccs if I do it that way.. Will qmail-inject attempt to make mail deliveries? J
Hello, everyone. I'm using qmail+vpopmail+mysql I place a .qmail in ~vpopmail/domains/domainname/username/ directory (this is username's home directory) and write .qmail file like this !egerp -qw '(word1|word2|word3)' && exit 99; /Maildir/ But it does not work! any letter with word1 or without it can be send to my email anyone have some advertises? or someone tell me where to found a whole document about .qmail file or another way to filter incoming email by user. Thanks a lot. Any suggestions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] are welcome. Sincerely yours, David 00-7-12 8:42:59
I may be mistaken, but isn't 99 the exit code that tells qmail to stop parsing .qmail?

David, TRy putting the .qmail file into the ~vpopmail/domains/domainname/ directory instead. Hope this helps.

also sprach chuck: > > TRy putting the .qmail file into the ~vpopmail/domains/domainname/ > directory instead. Actually vpopmail supports putting a .qmail file in ~vpopmail/domains/dom/u BUT it only supports putting ``&[EMAIL PROTECTED]''. To do pipes and other .qmail tricks, you'll need to do the above, move it into ~vpopmail/domains/dom/ and rename it to .qmail-u. /pg -- Peter Green : Gospel Communications Network, SysAdmin : [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- "And it _really_ moves" G Galilei (Linus Torvalds, announcing a yet better kernel)
From: David <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >|egrep -qw '(word1|word2|word3)' && exit 99 || exit 0 >/Maildir/ First, its missing a dot before the /Maildir/... there's no Maildir in /, is there? Second, I'm not very familiar with egrep's regular expressions, but if I was to parenthise what you wrote it would seem to me that egrep would read it as (word(1|w)ord(2|w)ord3) Which sure isn't what you intended it to do. Perhaps you meant (word1)|(word2)|(word3) Armando
Hi Everyone This is real URGENT..... We just installed a new qmail server with virtual domains... and now to our surprise.... no logs files are being generated ( in /var/log/qmail). Also In /var/log/qmail-smtpd the log file says... TCP server fatal error..unable to bind to address.. address already in use.... Please note that however all the mails are working perfectly fine and we are able to send emails to our users and also to the internet.... including the Virtual domains that we had setup... Would apprecite if anyone could help us.. REAL FAST... Thanks Lokesh

Hi, E-Mail content and subject filters to plug-in into .qmail files can be found on my Web-page: htttp://www.fehcom.de/qmail_en.html But never, never use those plug-ins for /alias/.qmail-postmaster and ./alias/.qmail-root since they have to take care about bounces. cheers. eh.

A qmail-solution with Maildirs over NFS for example, is quite scalable and could be considered a cluster in many ways.
