Dave,
The platform is Redhat 6.2
Something I was not sure of during the install procedures was the tesing of
svscan at http://cr.yp.to/daemontools/install.html.
This instructed me to setup a /service directory and add the the end of
etc/inittab the following:-
SV:123456:respawn:env - PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin svscan
/service </dev/null >/dev/console 2>/dev/console
Is this actually required by qmail ?

You need to do the maildirmake for each existing user *as that
user*. For new users, you might be able to do a maildirmake in the
skeleton (template) directory used by your system's adduser/useradd
utility, q.v.

Just found that qmail seems to run OK when /etc/rc.d/init.d/qmail is executed
after reboot.
However I still get the same erorr when I use /usr/local/sbin/qmail from the
command line.
I'm just carrying on for the moment to get qmail-pop3d working.
Thanks,

It appears that the C compiler on AIX is broken (shock). Try using gcc.

Is that the compiler that qmail is trying to use? Check the file ``conf-cc''
in the qmail build directory to see what it has found.

First you subtract 111 from the number you'd like to print, then you
check perlfaq5 for "commify".

Yeah.. I had already check it before compile... it's gcc in that

I remove that line in dns.c and then it compile without any

try including <time.h> (you might need to put it before or after
the sys/time.h line, or to delete the sys/time.h line - i don't
know about AIX).

I did check the FAQ before sending
this
The setup I am administrator of is using QMAIL 1.03
& vpopmail. There are a number of domains and the mail is broken up
for users under the domains.
I need to forward a copy of ALL inbound messages
for one domain to a specific address [EMAIL PROTECTED]. I suspect that I shouldn't
make this specific address part of the domain I want to copy because that would
probably put me off in an endless loop.
I suspect that I need to add a .qmail file into the
home directory for the domain, and that should get parsed for each user (
Correct? ).
Anyone that could help me, I'd really appreciate
it.

I agree with Gustavo.
Anyway, you'll surely need free space to receive your users' messages.
What does your logs say? (tm) when you start qmail now? What kind of
error are you getting?

I'm running qmail v. 1.03 and vpopmail 4.96 on Linux RedHat 6.2. All domains are
virtually subhosted. Everything is working fine. My init script is:
csh -cf '/var/qmail/rc &'
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -H -R -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -u 506 -g 505 0 smtp
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd &
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -H -R 0 pop-3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup mail.inloc.com
/home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir &
The problem is I'm getting hundreds of local messages in my qmail maillog, repeated
about 500-600 times a day. They are mostly like the following:
Nov 23 14:14:53 inloc qmail: 975006893.795559 starting delivery 5791: msg 50247 to
local [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Nov 23 14:14:53 inloc qmail: 975006893.795692 status: local 1/10 remote 0/20
Nov 23 14:14:53 inloc qmail: 975006893.813645 delivery 5791: deferral:
POP_user_does_not_exist,[EMAIL PROTECTED]/Can't_create_tempfile_(#4.3.8)/
Nov 23 14:14:53 inloc qmail: 975006893.813782 status: local 0/10 remote 0/20
The /home/vpopmail/inloc.com/.qmail-default file points to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and works
correctly.
This also happens, though less often, for other virtual domains.
There is nothing in the crontab or cron log concerning this.
Any ideas would be most welcome.

This question comes up on this list about every forty seconds. It's almost
certainly a DNS problem. Try using the -H, -R, and possibly -l0 (that's el
zero) options to tcpserver.

How _big_ are these messages?
I suspect you'll see first a network bandwidth problem, then a disk
I/O problem.
For any one newletter, will all of it's recipents get the same
newsletter? if not, then that means each newletter will have to
have 2 million copies if itself in the mail queue.

There's been a _lot_ of discussion on this list about large qmail
servers; you would do yourself (and us) a lot of good searching
through the mail archives...

If you're using ezmlm to manage these mailing lists, then I presume
that the answer to this question, which you didn't answer:
> > For any one newletter, will all of it's recipents get the same

is 'yes', in that all recipients get the same newsletter.
That means that you only have 100 copies of the 50k newsletter in
your message queue. That's only about 5M of diskspace. No problem
there.
I don't have a quick handle on how much diskspace any one instance
of a mailing list takes, though, WRT the list of subscribers. I
have one fairly tiny list I run (~100 people); based on what it
takes up, I'm going to odd-handedly guess that 2 million subscribers
(over all lists) will cost you maybe 40M of diskspace.
Are you maintaining indexes of these lists? (The ezmlm-idx patch
implies that). That will open-endedly eat diskspace forever. Each
list's mailing will cause another 50k message to be saved. How
long are you going to keep messages?
How long are you going to keep mail logs for deliveries? They can
possibly eat your diskspace if kept forever. You'll want to keep
some, so you can periodically analyze how well the machine can
deliver mail.
I'd hazard, roughly, that this 8G hard drive will have the capacity
to hold you down for many months.
But, in my mail to you, I mentioned network I/O, and disk I/O (not
capacity).
Network I/O:
You want 2 million deliveries of a 50K file a day. That's 100G a day;
that's 1.1M a _second_ of network activity, sustained 24x7.
And that's _just_ the newsletters. That does not take into account:
- DNS traffic with all of the timeouts and that that implies
- SMTP traffic. Assume 300 bytes per delivery: that's 600M _a
day_ just talking SMTP.
- managing bounces
So - what's your ISP hookup like?
Disk I/O:
Qmail is notoriously disk-heavy. I have no experience with the
ReiserFS, so I don't know how much of a gain you'll get.
A 'classic' trick with qmail is to run several instances of qmail
with separate queues, preferably on separate spindles. That
way, one sluggish mailing list won't bog down the others. That
implies multiple hard drives.
You mention 'a roundrobin DNS (with 4 relay host)'. I'm not certain
I understand how you have those set up...
Again, people have been discussing such stuff on the qmail/ezmlm
lists for some time, feel free to puruse the mailing list archives...

hi
has anybody used qmailanalog with qmail multilogs? i'd like to run statistics
on my qmail-send, but multilog rotates the logfiles, so im probably loosing
some logs when i run qmailanalog on the 'current' log. so has anybody some
tips? as far as i understand the way qmailanalog works, i can just run it over
all logfiles and it won't double-log messages??
thx for help & greetz

I'm a bit of a qmail newbie, but from what I've read that means any
mail delivered to your account is forwarded to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Yes, you will be opening on the rcpt side. Anyway you can close on the
sender side; use tcpmakectl to 'do' a tcp.smtp.cdb (for instance) with the
rules defining which hosts will be allowed to use your smtp server to send
mail.
Append that cdb to your tcpserver: tcpserver OPTIONS -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb
MORE_OPTIONS.
Why should you allow someone at spammer.org to send mail (!?) through your box?

Everytime I telnet to my SMTP port (wether using the loopback IP or the
public IP), I get the "connection closed by foreign host" error message.
when I check my maillog, the following is displayed:
Nov 25 10:46:13 localhost smtpd: 975120373.062916 tcpserver: status: 1/20

status 256
Nov 25 10:46:13 localhost smtpd: 975120373.388740 tcpserver: status: 0/20
if you will notice, the server accepts the connection and drops it right
away.
I've also been receiving a lot of bounce mails. It says that "there's no
mailbox by that name". I am sure that I created those mailboxes so I
assumed it gives out that error because my SMTP port drops connection.
Bounce mails originate from test mail I send to mailboxes in my server using
the "echo to: mailbox_name | /qmail/path/qmail-inject" command.

How are you calling the qmail-smtpd tcpserver?

i think the RPM i installed generated a file at /etc/rc.d/init.d/smtpd.
this automatically loads after a reboot. i dunno if I answered your
question. I installed qmail using RPMs so most of the configs are RPM
generated already

Earlier today I asked a question in here, and I
haven't even gotten 1 response. Other people post what appear to me to be
much more difficult situations but they get 2, 3, 4 or more responsed within
like 10 minutes.
Is there a reason that no one is responding ?
Can someone at least acknowledge that me email made it out to the list
?

Copy of original message:
===================
I did check the FAQ before sending
this
The setup I am administrator of is using qmail 1.03
& vpopmail. There are a number of domains and the mail is broken up
for users under the domains.
I need to forward a copy of ALL INBOUND
messages for one of the domains on this email server to a specific address [EMAIL PROTECTED]. I suspect that I shouldn't
make this specific address part of the domain I want to copy because that would
probably put me off in an endless loop.
I suspect that I need to add a .qmail file into the
home directory for the domain, and that should get parsed for each user (
Correct? ).
Anyone that could help me, I'd really appreciate
it.

Perhaps your support payment check has not yet been received at the qmail
central office yet.
The message made it to the list. Maybe the reason that you haven't gotten a
response is that the answer depends on familiarity with vpopmail; this isn't a
vpopmail list, and I'd venture to say that most people here don't use it. I
believe there is a vpopmail list, and you might have better luck there.

Alter the .qmail-default file for the particular domain. Insert a line that
reads:
&[EMAIL PROTECTED]
at the beginning of the file. (IOW, leave the ``vdelivermail'' line in there
and *add* the line above to the beginning of the file.)

Oh, really? By whose definition? I have the source, and I have the
actual
program. I suppose if you're some ESR/RMS fanatic, this does not comply
with
your vision of "open source". The source is available, and by Dan's own

you can do what you like with it. As far as I am concerned, this meets
anyone's
definition of "open source" except a fanatic.

So, what is your point here? When was the last time a serious security
fanatic went through:
a. Linux kernel source code.
b. BSD kernel source code.
c. Solaris kernel source code.
d. etc., etc., etc.

Hello all,
I know this has been answered before. I have seen the answer. But I
can't remember the answer and I can't remember where I saw it before.
A search of the archive for this list was fruitless.
I am trying to set up a virtual domain to be controlled by a user. I
want her to have complete control over the user names on this virtual
domain. I'm afraid they'll conflict with other user names I might
eventually set up on other virtual domains in the future. So I want
all of this configuration in her account, where she can mess with it
to her heart's content.
I do not want her to have to precede these usernames with her
username. Ideally, qmail would see trek.parts-unknown.org and figure
it all out from .qmail files (or some other configuration) in her
account.
None of these users will be using POP on my server. My firewall is
configured to prevent POP access (I don't like passwords in clear
text). All of these users will have their mail forwarded to their
regular e-mail addresses.
For example, [EMAIL PROTECTED] will be forwarded to me at
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
The purpose of this is to set up a secondary MX for our Star Trek fan
club e-mail addresses. The user in question uses /etc/aliases on her
sendmail setup to configure all this in a relatively compact form, so
it's not like she has a qmail setup I can duplicate.
I tried vpopmail. It refused to do the configuration, saying that the
virtual domain already existed. I grumpily understand this: I had
already started configuring the virtual domain. So I tried removing
this configuration from the qmail control files. But it still said
the virtual domain already exists. I tried telling it to delete the
virtual domain, whereupon it said it couldn't add it. vpopmail
doesn't seem to be helping.
So far I have added trek.parts-unknown.org to
/var/qmail/control/locals and /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts. I have
put an entry in /var/qmail/control/virtualdomains which looks like:
trek.parts-unknown.org:star
"star" is her username on my system. I have set up a bunch of .qmail
files in her account. One of these is .qmail-xo. It contains my
e-mail address, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Another of these is
.qmail-trek, which I think should apply to
[EMAIL PROTECTED], an ezmlm+idx mailing list with all our
members in it.
I can get to the mailing list if I change the above entry in
/var/qmail/control/virtualdomains to:
trek.parts-unknown.org:star-trek
But then when I send her an e-mail on her virtual domain's username at
[EMAIL PROTECTED], it fails saying, "Sorry, no mailbox here
by that name."
She is able to receive mail on my system; I have a cron job which runs
under her account to mirror the fan club website which produces a
piece of mail for her every day. When I su'd into her account and ran
mutt, it was all there.
In addition, I tried sending her an e-mail to her username on my
system but on the virtual domain, i.e [EMAIL PROTECTED]
This also got properly delivered.
What this looks like to me is that the virtual domain configuration is
having utterly no effect whatsoever. I'm sure it isn't supposed to be
this way. What am I missing?
