Hi,

     I would like to know how to change user's password via the web, as
I know, (qmail) mail userl's password is corresponding to Redhat linux
user's password.  Please give me any idea of how to let my user change
password via the web.  And the web server and qmail server is located at
different machine.

Thank You so much for your help

Mark Lo








Dear sir,

I have started using Qmail for intranet mail and enabled POP,IMAP and
webmail access. No issues it works fine. I loaded EZLML for mailing list and
it is nice to work with it.

I am in process of using WEB admin module of QMAIL but I am stuck with of
specific need.

Before I deploy on full scale for INTERNET, Please kindly help me with
following:

1. I have IBM's WEBSPHERE with EJB and servelts in JAVA applets developed in
JDK 1.1.6. I can use JAVA MAIL API to write mail message for specific users
as per the logic in java scripts. I am stuck with how can invoke QMAIL so
that, it delivers a load of 100 to 1000 mail receipents as a time.
2. It may be possible to start executing some scripts or commands moment the
specific mail address is received by QMAIL.

Functionality Description:

Sy [EMAIL PROTECTED] is the mail address will be used by application
so that, moment it is received it will take the necessary values from mail
content and will start application to update it as new bid value in purchase
order database.

So,qmail has to remove domain address part from email address of receipent
and take the user name part i.e. alert-newpo. Start the action of say java
Main.update_bidvalue_po.class script/program which will insert new value as
per the mail only after confirming that, sender e-mail address is valid.

Please can you help me with this kind of functionality that can be used
using Qmail. I come to know that, it is possible in SENDMAIL using aliases
but that is very combersome and I don't want to use sendmail just for that.

Assuming the message to all recipients is identical, you could list
the recipients in a .qmail file and send the message once to the
controlling address. Or you could list them in the To/CC/BCC header
fields and inject via "sendmail -f".

>2. It may be possible to start executing some scripts or commands moment the

Sure, put the scripts/commands in a .qmail file.

What you describe sounds like it'd be straightforward to accomplish
via a .qmail file, but I'd have to see a more concrete example to be
sure.

I have inherited a system that's running qmail.  It's working fine but we have just added a new portmaster, to which ppp clients should dial in .  After dialing in a ppp client can send mail, but can not receive, we get an error message that reads tcpclient unable to connect to 127.0.0.1 port 50000 timed out, port 110 secure (SSL): no server error: 0x800ccc90, error number.  I think this has something to do with the IP Addresses the ppp user is assigned.  Please help?
 
Thanks Lydia




Thanks Hitesh,
When other ppp clients dial into this portmaster and try pick their mail from a server running sendmail, they collect without any problem.

Dear Ms. Lydia,
 
1. Please check the portmaster configuration, POP server is not able sent on the IP address of PPP client with POP port 110 and thus client might be getting LOOPBACK address 127.0.0.1.
 
2. POP client is not able to open receive chennel IP address say OUTLOOK will have configuration for incoming and outgoing mail server address.

Hi Qmailers,

Someone is sending a KAK worm on this list.
There are only two possibilities why this happens.
  1. Intentional to ruin this list.
  2. The sender is a stupid idiot.

Please filter out those postings that uses HTML formating.
The disabled KAK worm specimen is found below.

Thanks

hello,

        first of all, sorry for the subject, I didn't know who to clearly
explain what I'm trying to do in a line. My setup is simple: 

        - I've got 2 qmail servers, one co-located and one internal to my
company, with dial-up connection.
        - Both think they are *.scim.net MX
        - Upon dial-up connection, the internal server uses fetchmail to
download mail for local users and I send an ALRM signal to qmail-send. 

        the problem is here: qmail-send sends the remote mail directly to the
recipients MX, and those are somethimes flaky (hotmail accounts,
specially), so it keeps trying for a long time until the mail is sent or
the delay is so long the the connection times out and disconnects. 
        
        [ important point here, the dial-up connection (through pppd) is set to
hangup when it reached a certain time of inactivity ]

        what I want it to do is:
        - route all the 'remote' mail to the online server.
        - the remote server should RELAY those mail, but ... only from me
(don't really want to be an open relay). But hey! I'm on a dial-up acc
-> dynamic ip ... 

        I really think it *should* be possible to 'route' all my traffic
through the co-located server, but can I keep it from being an open
relay? 


        thanks in advance, specially if you read this long, long posting!

        On internal.scim.net, your smtproutes should contain the following:

:external.scim.net

        That way, all domains not local will be forwarded to
external.scim.net for relay.  external.scim.net must allow selective
relaying; if you're using tcpserver, then add the IP address of
internal.scim.net followed by ':allow,RELAYCLIENT=""' into /etc/tcp.smtp and
type 'tcprules /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb /tmp/tcp.tmp < /etc/tcp.smtp'  (This is
paraphrasing Michael Samuel's detailed "How to selective relay" instructions
at http://qmail-docs.surfdirect.com.au/docs/qmail-antirelay.html, which
seems to be not responding right now.

greg,

        the 'internal' part of the solution works great, thanks!  Regarding the
'external' part of the solution ... you wrote

        but I have a dynamic IP address! [because of the dial-up connection].

        is there a reasonable way to authenticate my server with tcpserver?
        is there a suitable mailing list to ask about tcpserver?

Do you want to relay through your server? (The proper way, 
usually, is to relay through your ISP's server; they know their dialup 
netblock IP.) If yes, you may want to consider one of the following 
possibilities:

1. ssh tunel
2. ssl tunel
3. POP3-before-SMTP (yes, it can work for relaying, too)
4. some other way you tell your machine your IP to be able to relay

        Oops, missed that part.

        I'm making wild guesses now, but you could script something to use
the POP-before-SMTP patch, or you could just write a password protected web
script on the external server that updates the tcp.smtp rules automatically,
and which is automatically run when your dialup comes up.

Petr. 
        true! 

        of course they do know their own IPs! I had been thinking how could I
seduce one of their sysadmins to hand their dial-up IPs, and how could I
keep it sync'ed (they are growing fast). The answer was right there...
Thanks!!!

Now every once in awhile a really slick idea comes about...  Great idea, 
because then you can telnet in to any port and verify functionality of the

Well, thank you for the appraisal! :)

In fact, I was thinking not strictly in terms of telnet (tough it can be
used, of course) but of Outlook Express, as per Tony's original message. OE
supports specifying non-standard ports for POP and SMTP service. fetchmail,
and many MUAs also do support this.

  is it possible to have a password for qmail-pop3d different then the linux
password because the current passwords for the current internal server
(using window$ $oftware) have only a 2 letter password (i know that it's
impossible to have it under linux with kernel 2.2.16) and for a simply way
for upgrading server to qmail, i would like to know how i can do ....


P.S : i know that it isn't good to have only two letters for a
password, but i have not the choice...

I have got a Qmail on Linux 5.2. By default the time taken for the message
if any mail bounce back is seven days. Now I want to configure it in a way
that this message should be generated after two days. Could you suggest
that how should I go about this.

Thanks

1. Read the docs (man qmail-control).
2. Create (or edit) /var/qmail/control/queuelifetime and put there 
time in seconds in which the mail should timeout and bounce; 
2days is 172800; the default is 604800, ie.7days.

i installed version 0.92.
it sends the reply and ignores the message when repeated immediately,
but it does not quote the original message.

can it do that?
and if so, can it shorten the original message to lets say 100 K or
something?

thanks,

Hi,

I have qmail 1.0.3 setup running vpopmail (virtual domain). I want to setup 
a filter for the entire domain to move any junk mail (base upon the criteria 
in the header extension) to all virtual domain user. This user will access 
their email via IMAP only. Is this doable? If so, can someone give me 
pointer where to look? I read LWQ doc and there isn't enough info. Sample 
configuration or filter code would be really helpful.

Thanks in advance.

I laughed so hard after I read what I type.... silly me....

I actually mean to have message filter to a different folder for all virtual 
domain users, i.e. each virtual domain user will have their own junkmail 
folder where qmail will automatically move those junk mail to the folder. 
Thanks in advance.

That would require SSL.  I want the same thing.

You would have to build a cgi, going thru ssl, calling passwd.

The only way I can think of doing that is w/ expect.

Keep in mind... the script would have to be SUID.

This is a very big issue.  So much so that I could easily see abandoning Unix
style authentication for something available thru the various security
toolkits.

Radical, I know, but I am just that kind of person :)

It would be fairly trivial to roll your own app to do it and run it 
thru tcpserver and stunnel.  How you actually do it depends on the
OS.  In FreeBSD you can use pw, and if you want to be really slick
about it you can even use it to disable an account.

Wow... You are all complicating this whole thing too much...

Put qmail's settings into a SQL database (MySQL for example) and you have
access from any cgi program of php/asp/ssl/... page on your web server.
Because the password you are using to access your mail is no longer a
password that can log into the system, the security risk drops
significantly. If you are woried about sniffers stealing your password...
Use SSL, if not, hey, dont... Worst case scenario... They can read your
mail... So? They can do that anyhow, if they can sniff my network traffic,
so no harm done here...

We have qmail-1.3 running and would like to set it up as the secondary
mail server for one domain. We want this mail server to keep trying to
forward all the mail for that domain to the primary server in case the
primary server goes down - say for about 40 hours. This is an emergency

Fine.  Very easy.  Set up the box as you would normally, put the domain
it's backing up in 'rcpthosts' but not in 'locals'.  It will accept mail
for that domain and attempt to relay it to the other server for up to a
week.

Just telnet to port 25 on that server from an IP that is not allowed to
relay through that server and manually send a message.  It should relay
the message to the other server.

can any one has agot this error ?  i am shaking my heads from last 
two days  ,i have installed qmail 1-03 with qmail-ldap-20000601 patch 
on test system and it has worked fine for us  ,

 but when i installed in on real production system  its giving this error 
, i dont know what  is error , 

  
  the only difference between  these installation (test and on production
system )    is i have enable -DCLEARTEXTPASSWD  flag while i have installed
 qmail-ldap on test system  and on production system  
i have not enabled  

  i need to know the compilation flags that has to be turned on  to make
qmail work with  openldap's (Default installation )
bcoz as far as i know openldap by default  uses  encrypted  password 

 i have compiled qmail BY TURNING OFF  -DCLEARTEXTPASSWD

 what i have to write in my "inetd.conf" to make qmail-smtpd run under
inetd.conf  , i have gone through  the docs  but thats not working for me  

smtp  stream nowait qmaild  /var/qmail/bin/tcp-env   \
tcp-env   /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd   

  what is the significance of    tcp-env   and "\"  symbol
i dont know much about it and have faced lot of problems  related with "\"

Many files allow you to split long lines across multiple lines by
ending a line with \.  inetd.conf doesn't allow this, so remove the \
and put all that on one line.

Hola...

Like a good boy, I use tcpserver for all my qmail stuff.  What has me
curious is why from time to time I will see multiple copies of tcpserver
spawn.  My understanding was that as connections are made, tcpserver
just spawns the correct program, not another copy of itself.  However, I
will frequently see several copies of, say, my POP3 tcpserver running.
All with identical command lines.  If I check back later it may be back
down to just a sole instance.

Is this normal behavior?

I run both the POP3 and SMTP tcpservers from /var/qmail/rc like so:

/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -R -q -p -x /etc/smtprules/tcp.smtp.cdb -u79 \
-g1003 0 smtp /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd  2>&1 & 

/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -q -R -u79 -g1003 0 pop3 \
     /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup amazhan.bitstream.net \
         /var/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir &

Thanks,
Ben

I'd say it's normal. Note that a 'spawn' is actually a fork followed
by an exec. There is a small window between the fork and exec when
the spawned process is still a copy of tcpserver. Presumably you
are catching it then perhaps because there are potential delays
in that window or perhap while the OS is loading in the execed
code.

Run qmail-inject via a system call tracer (strace/truss/par/etc.) to
where it's failing.

Hi all,

I'm using a content filter shell script that I've written (based on inflex)
with qmail-qfilter. During this filter process, I'd like to grab the
contents of the envelope and store them in a file for use later (ie,
reconstructing the envelope for an inject).

I've toyed with trying to pipe fd 1 into a file without success. I know
that this has to be doable with a small C program, but quite honestly, I
don't have the familiarity with C to do it. Can it be done with Perl? In
the shell? Is it as simple as reading fd1, writing a file, and re-writing
fd1?

Any ideas on how I can accomplish this?

Some details:

qmail 1.03
qmail-qfilter 1.0
Redhat 6.2


Thanks in advance for any help,
Josh Tibbs

In fooling with tcpclient I found the syntax to do this.  As I'm a perl
junky, here's a program that will read descriptor 6 and print to descriptor
7.  If you know any perl at all this should get you to where you need to be.
 
#!/usr/bin/perl

# read descriptor 6 and print it to descriptor 7

open INFILE, "<&6" or die "BAD IN";
open OUTFILE, ">&7" or die "BAD OUT";

while (<INFILE>) {
  print OUTFILE, $_;
}

close OUTFILE;
close INFILE;

Have a look at http://cr.yp.to/mess822.html , the 822header utility could be
what you need.

Armando







Yup, I use the mess822 stuff too, but I need envelope addresses, not header
addresses.

I see now that qmail-qfilter 1.3 sets QMAILRCPTS to the message recipients.
I assume this is envelope recipients. If so, I'm halfway there. I just need
to doctor up 1.3 a little bit to also pass a variable for envelope sender
(and to drop empty messages). Can anyone confirm?

MAN PAGE ALERT!!!!
(from qmail-qfilter page)

       qmail-qfilter sends the message text through each  of  the
       filter commands named on the command line.  Each filter is
       run seperately, with __standard input__ opened  to  the  input
       email,  and __standard output__ opened to a new temporary file
       that will become the input to either the next  filter,  or
       qmail-queue.  Each filter on the command line in seperated
       with --.

With this data in mind, I made a little script that does some censoring

---> qmail-qfilter myfilter.pl -- qmail-inject -n <---
----------
#!/usr/bin/perl

while (<>) {
  s/fuck/fsck/i;
  print $_;
}
----------

PS - I'm concerned that with this qmail-inject thing going on that multiple
recipients might get multiple copies - but then I haven't read the
documentation enough to clarify that in my head.  Would a relayed message to
multiple recipients have those other recipients re-qualified as
undelivered-to and hence would get multiple copies?  Somebody knows, I'm
sure.

OK, so I tried this:

    if ($#ARGV != 0) {

    }

open (INFD, "<&1") or die "BAD FD IN";

}

close (OUTFILE);
close (INFD);
# close (OUTFD);

I tried as is and with the commented lines enabled (just to be sure I didn't
step on my input for some silly reason). I still end up with a 0 byte
output file, same as
using redirection in the shell. The more I think about it, I'm almost
certain that my script does not have access to this data (so to speak) when
run
via qmail-qfilter.

I think it's time to go back to the drawing board and go dig in the
qmail-qfilter source. Any more ideas, concurrences, disagreements, etc?

This is fine. I think the qmail-inject might be overkill, but does no harm.
With the -n, it merely prints the message (with some headers tidied up if
need be), which is then pumped into qmail-queue. The recipients are coming
from the envelope (the fd 1 magic that I'm trying to figure out), not from
the header. Therefore, no extra or double recipients.

Your concern is my reality :(. When an administrator needs to resubmit a
message that was stopped by the filter, we need to reconstruct the envelope
as it was at the time that the message was stopped. Now, if I just inject
the message, it's gonna go out to everybody in the header all over again.

The same man page tells you that qmail-qfilter sets QMAILUSER and
QMAILHOST to the username and hostname portions of the envelope sender.
Dropping empty messages is something you can do in your filter.

Which is exactly how qmail-qfilter is designed to be used.

If you need to "stop" a message rather than modifying it or bouncing it,
you will need to explicitly save the envelope.  It will not be part of
the RFC822 header.

Subject: How to grab the envelope contents while filtering?


Hi all,

I'm using a content filter shell script that I've written (based on inflex)
with qmail-qfilter. During this filter process, I'd like to grab the
contents of the envelope and store them in a file for use later (ie,
reconstructing the envelope for an inject).

I've toyed with trying to pipe fd 1 into a file without success. I know
that this has to be doable with a small C program, but quite honestly, I
don't have the familiarity with C to do it. Can it be done with Perl? In
the shell? Is it as simple as reading fd1, writing a file, and re-writing
fd1?

Any ideas on how I can accomplish this?

Some details:

qmail 1.03
qmail-qfilter 1.0
Redhat 6.2


Thanks in advance for any help,

OK, so I tried this:

#!/usr/bin/perl

    if ($#ARGV != 0) {
        die "Usage:  $0 outputfile\n";
    }

open (INFD, "<&1") or die "BAD FD IN";
open (OUTFILE, ">$ARGV[0]") or die "BAD FILE OUT";
# open (OUTFD, ">&1") or die "BAD FD OUT";

while (<INFD>) {
  print OUTFILE "$_";
#  print OUTFD "$_";
}

close (OUTFILE);
close (INFD);
# close (OUTFD);

I tried as is and with the commented lines enabled (just to be sure I didn't step on 
my input for some silly reason). I still end up with a 0 byte
output file, same as
using redirection in the shell. The more I think about it, I'm almost certain that my 
script does not have access to this data (so to speak) when run
via qmail-qfilter.

I think it's time to go back to the drawing board and go dig in the qmail-qfilter 
source. Any more ideas, concurrences, disagreements, etc?

Thanks,
Josh

Provided you remove the comma from the print statement, it'll actually work

Assuming you really meant tcp.smtp, that you include a ":deny" line at
the end, and that you don't want *any* remote systems to contact the
mail host via SMTP, yes.

Make two or all three of the domains virtual. Right now, you're
trating them all as local (in control/locals) so they share the same
username space. If you, for example, remove mail.two.com from locals
(but leave it in rcphosts) and add line to control/virtualdomains
like:

  mail.two.com:alias-two

Then ~alias/.qmail-two-d, ~alias/.qmail-two-e, ~alias/.qmail-two-f,
etc. can be used to file or redirect mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], etc.

No, this has nothing to do with sendmail. It's a procmail thing. I
think it has something to do with locking, but I'm not
sure. Personally, I don't believe in the "links in /var/spool/mail"
thing. Better to convince the mailer to look for the mailbox where it
really lives.

But if you really want to fix this problem, contact a procmail expert.

hi
Thanx for the quick response..
I was actually using a rpm distribution which came with SuSE. After i recompilled procmail everything is working out fine..

I'm using qmail-1.03.

I've routed all outgoing mail thru a very big smtp relay, but i would like
to be able to route mail targeted to a specific domain - say @DOMAIN.COM -
thru a different smtp relay, is this possible?

Thanks!

No, you haven't.

I wrote the original tester that MAPS uses, and I can assure you that
you only get listed if your system actually sends the spam back to MAPS.

Moin,
all mails written or delivered to my server 
ruppert.terramenta.de are adress masqueraded,
that they have the form <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
That works fine.
But when a mail bounce because the adress is
not existent (e.g. [EMAIL PROTECTED]) the
mailadresse from the mailer-daemon is still
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
              ^^^^^^^
The smarthost I use only transport mail
with adresses from terramenta.de, so the 
mail from [EMAIL PROTECTED]
bounce. So, what do I have to do to masquerade the
adresse from MAILER-DAEMON to [EMAIL PROTECTED],
as it works for 'normal' users?

Thanks

See the man page for qmail-control.  You want to put terramenta.de into
control/bouncehost.

MAILER-DAEMON@ is what you see in the mail's From header, and has
nothing to do with the sender address, which for a bounce would be
NULL--maybe that is why your mail is being rejected, hmm?  I don't
know your particular situation, of course, but your smarthost should
be allowing relaying based on your IP address, and not what's in From
or the envelope sender, otherwise it's basically an open relay (and
spammers will find it, eventually).  You might point that out to the
machine's adminstrator, if my analysis of the situation is correct.

I installed amavis-perl-7 to use with qmail (made a copy of qmail-queue and
called it qmail-queue-real and copied over the amavis script with the
qmail-queue and made sure the owner was qmailq, group was qmail, and mode
was 4711). However something is wrong with the Convert-UUlib module. Here is
the error I get in the smtpd logs:

Many of today's Internet mail problems would be eliminated by one basic
change to the Internet mail infrastructure. The idea is explained in
http://cr.yp.to/im2000.html.

You can subscribe to the im2000 mailing list by sending an empty message
to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I won't have time to implement this
in the next few months, but perhaps some people are interested in
discussing it anyway.

I'd suggest:

        http://em.ca/~bruceg/qmail-autoresponder/

The choice about delivering the mail to the user or not
is yours : you put ./Maildir/ in you .qmail-xxx file
or not.

Hi..

I was wondering - what does qmail reply on to deliver email
for user authentication (valid username etc) so you dont end
up with mails bouncing - and does anyone know if there is
pop software available that does not reply on /etc/passwd
or /etc/shadow for password authentication but uses an other
file?
The reason for this is - I want to create many (10k+) email
accounts on a qmail machine with pop ability - without giving
those people access to the machine for anything else.
I'd like to keep /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow free of all those
entries - but if I have to I know I can always enter them there
and disable the shell they are using. How does qmail take that
actually?

Many questions - I hope you guys can answer them for me.

Thanks,
J.

I suggest you use Berkeley DB files to store your mail users
password file information. Then write a small library containing your
own implementation of getpwnam() and getspnam() that looks up users
in those files, and link the library with the standard checkpassword
program. This will give you very good results with litte work.
