If the first feature is quite useful, I find the second one rather nazi :)
I don't imagine my boss being asked to confirm he doesn't spam me from now on...
I'd rather use rblsmtpd with qmail for checking the maps.vix.com's rbl database.
And I'm actually doing it.

well, you can add his address to the accept.txt file directely... :)
I'll add a maildir and addressbook parser to get all the current addresses,

yes, the rblsmtpd is als helpful, but not enough IMHO.

i would suggest the smtproutes file with the following content:
domain-a.xyz:ip.of.exchange.box
domain-b.xyz:ip.of.exchange.box
if you want to let your ISP's mailserver relay your outgoing
mail, the last line of your smtproutes should be
:smtp.ofyour.isp
this results in a mail hub that will happily forward any mail
to your internal m$ exchange server. don't forget to put the
domains into rcpthosts and to set up tcp.smtp properly.
you really do not want to be an open relay - do you?
hope that helps
;) alexander
Roger,
Do a quick search in the qmail archives - your answer awaits!! I have
nearly the same setup - qmail server outside and Exchange 4.0 inside....
I use pullmail to poll the qmail server via pop3 and it get sent to the
Exchange server via smtp. Works pretty well.

I've discovered a problem that QMail is having and need some help
on finding out why this is happening and how to fix the problem ...
QMail is supposed to convert email addresses it receives to all
lower-case letters. Our installation is NOT doing that.
To prove this to myself and others, I did the following: I sent an
email to one of my qmail e-mail accounts from my work account -
BUT, purposely used uppercase letters in the address:
For example, I made [EMAIL PROTECTED] into:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED]
When I checked my [EMAIL PROTECTED] account, the email I
sent from my work account was not there. When I logged into the
postmaster account for my domain, the mail I tried to send to my
"hans" account was there...undelivered to me.
I've skimmed through the QMail book I bought to confirm that QMail
is supposed to be converting addresses to lower-case, but I
couldn't find any information about what to do if QMail is NOT
converting.
This has caused a BIG problem for my customers over the past
couple of months and I have been trying to figure out what the hell
was going on; why they weren't receiving email. Then I
remembered to check the postmaster accounts and there were a
ton of messages there...all with Capital letters in the addresses.
Can anyone help me with a solution to this problem? Thanks.

qmail-getpw lowercases the name before looking it up in /etc/passwd.
If you're using a qmail-getpw replacement, then it may or may not
lowercase the name. qmail-lspawn lowercases usernames before it looks
them up in users/assign. Other delivery methods hook onto
~alias/.qmail-default. They may or may not ignore case.

This may be a little late, but why don't you simply use one of the
many Perl modules that deal with MIME and know how to do it right,
for example, MIME::Lite? Go to <http://search.cpan.org/>.

Would the above solution (and the equiv. using MIME::Lite apply to
qmail-inject as well? I'm trying to send attachments from a perl
script, too.

I'm having some difficulties getting QMQP working in my environment. Here's
the setup:
I've got a web server that needs to send E-Mails (confirmation e-mails,
etc), so I set it up as a QMQP client. I've followed the instructions at
http://cr.yp.to/qmail/mini.html for both the client and the server.
When I do a simple test on the web server: ls | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I get the following error: qmail-inject: fatal: connection to mail server
rejected (#4.4.1)
So I've been pulling my hair out, looking for where I went wrong in the
configuration. It seems to indicate that the problem is on the server side.
Here are the contents of some relevant config files:
Mail Server /etc/tcp.qmqp : 216.232.111.156:allow
:deny
Mail Server /etc/tcp.smtp: 127.:allow,RELAYCLIENT=""
216.232.111.156:allow,RELAYCLIENT=""
Mail Server /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts: mail.itsallgeek.net
www.itsallgeek.net
Mail Server /var/qmail/control/locals: mail.itsallgeek.net
www.itsallgeek.net
Web Server /var/qmail/control/idhost: www.itsallgeek.net
Web Server /var/qmail/control/qmqpservers: 216.232.111.154
Any help or hints would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Tyrone

Hello All,
How does one change the master password on qmail-admin
(the web based interface for vpopmail)? I don't find any man
pages for vpopmail? I'm running qmailadmin-0.26c and vpopmail-3.4.11
if that helps at all?
Also, how difficult is it to upgrade to the latest versions
of these two packages w/out breaking anything which is currently
running well?

Hi all,
Could someone please tell me exactly what are the
permissions (+
UID/GID) I have to set for :
/var/qmail/qfilter
(directory)
/var/qmail/qfilter/tmp
(directory)
(needed to compile
qfilter as I read in qfilter's README file)
/var/qmail/qfilter/qfilter-test
(file)
containing :
#!/usr/sh
exec /usr/bin/qmail-qfilter
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject -n
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-queue
(file)
/usr/bin/qmail-qfilter (file)
I searched solutions in archives but I jumped from
errors to errors... now I'm lost
:-(
TIA

Install mutt. Then just do the following, to create MIME-type file
attachments:
echo "This is the message body.
It can have multiple lines." \

wow, and then if qmail is installed i guess that's what mutt would use to
actually send it?

I've not taken it as far as pulling out all the domains, but I have a
few scripts that I use on a regular basis as follows. These are not
models of efficiency, but they do the job:
qusers:
#!/bin/sh
# show number of messages queued up per address
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-qread | grep remote | grep -v done | sort | uniq -c | sort -n
qyahoo:
#!/bin/sh
# summarise number of messages queued for a domain
qusers | awk '$3 ~ /@yahoo\./ { sum=sum+$1 } END { print sum }'
Just for you, here's a freshly written script that counts things by
domain part. It doesn't attempt to establish what mail server they're
queued for (qmail doesn't store that information handily, one would
have to go through the log files and try and deduce it from the
information):
qdomains:
#!/bin/sh
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-qread | nawk '$1 ~ /remote/ { sub(/^.*@/,"",$2);
domains[$2]=domains[$2]+1 } END { for ( domain in domains ) { print domains[domain],
domain; } }' | sort -n
hope that helps,
James.

Yup. qmail is telling you that it didn't deliver to a mailbox, didn't
forward the mail, and didn't run a program delivery.

I managed to install QMail for the first time 2 weeks back.
I also installed the utilities available at inter7.com. They include
vpopmail, qmailadmin and sqwebmail.
I tried retrieving my mails using pop3 with my ms outlook client and they
gave me an error saying something like "invalid password, authentication
error...blah...blah"
I am very sure that the password i have been trying is correct because i am
able to login to my mail account using sqwebmail's web interface client.
Everything seems to be working fine except for this.
Currently, i am only able to send and retrieve mails using sqwebmail only. I
also installed this "checkpassword" thing after trying out some online help.
It didn't work either.
Please help.

Sunil

when I run qmail-qread I get 108,000 lines of emails, most of which have
sent. When I run qmail-qstat is says that there typically about 250 emails
that in queue.
Is that normal to have that may lines returned from qmail-qread?
qmail-clean is running and is started along with the other processes.
I have qmHandle that really helps to see what is in the queue, but is there
another way to get all of the items that are waiting to be delivered and all
of the bounces, with the reason that things are being bounced?
Right now the only way I can tell what is up with an email when it is not
working is to look in the log, run qmHandle and check the bounce directory.
I am using vpopmail and only processing about 40,000 emails a day.
Thanks in advance.

Yep, however, you might want to only show those that haven't been
delivered yet:
qmail-qread | grep -v done

Can someone help me with local mail routing?
My setup is as follows.
servers= server1.mydomain.com &
server2.mydomain.com
server1's smtproutes
file = mydomain.com:server2.mydomain.com
server1's locals file =
server1.mydomain.com
server1's me file =
server1.mydomain.com
I want server1 to route all mydomain.com email to
server2, but it's not working. With the above setup, everything stays on
server1, nothing routed to server2. What other files do I need to look
at?
TIA,
jean
|
Make sure server1.mydomain.com is accepting mail for
server1.mydomain.com in the rcpthosts file, and that
server2.mydomain.com (is it a qmail box?) is allowed to receive mail
for server2.mydomain.com and mydomain.com . Restart qmail on each box
and it should work. By the way, if no mail is stored on server 1, you
shouldn't need the locals file.

Both servers are open relays. server1 is in dmz and server2 behind
firewall. server1 will get a rcpthosts file as soon as it starts forwarding
to server2.

Didn't think of that. I wonder if that's the cause. I'll zap it and see
what happens.

Is this really a locals file? Try:
mydomain.com
server2.mydomain.com
(ie without the :mydomain.com's)

ok, here is what i did to my system...
i am using qmail-1.03 , vpopmail-4.9.4, mysql-3.23.33
there is no problem installing the qmail package using maildir , i
already test the mail delivery locally and it works.
my configure script for mysql :
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql
make
make install
./mysql_installdb
./mysqladmin -u root password 'newpassword'
then i edit the vmysql.h file and change the mysql password 'gipgap'
to the one i created above 'newpassword'.
here is my configure script for vpopmail :
./configure --enable-mysql=y
--enable-sqlincdir=/usr/local/mysql/include
--enable-sqllibdir=/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql
--enable-ucspi-dir=/usr/local/src/ucspi-tcp-0.88
--enable-tcpserver-file=/etc/tcp.smtp
--enable-qmaildir=/usr/local/src/qmail-1.03
--enable-tcprules-prog=/usr/local/bin/tcprules
--enable-apop=n
make
make install-strip
there is no problem compiling vpopmail,
The problem arise, when i execute the "vadddomain" command , i got
this message " could not open assign file ".
but the new domains directory still created under the
/home/vpopmail/domains directory. even when i execute the
"vadduser " command , the user directory is created under the
virtual domains directory. so for a moment i thought that
everything was properly installed.
but when i when i try to pop my newly created virtual email ,
localhost# telnet localhost 110
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'.
+OK <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
user [EMAIL PROTECTED]
+OK
pass passsword
-ERR authorization failed
Connection closed by foreign host.
localhost#
any idea about what might my problem is ?
thanks.
best regards,
roy

Oops, is your qmail installed under /usr/local/src/qmail-1.03?
I bet it's not!

It couldn't open users/assign - indication that qmail is not installed
under /usr/local/src/qmail-1.03 (that's what you told vpopmail when
compiling it)

Hi everybody.
I have a qmail server working as forward mail server. It relay mails from
all mail servers from my internal LAN and stores and forward mail from
internet to my internal mail server.
However I have a problem when limiting max number of outbout connections.
If I specify a number of connections in control/concurrencyremote, this
limit apply all connections from my mail server to internet and from my mail
server to my internal LAN.
I would need to specify one limit but only to those connections to internet,
not my LAN since I have bandwidth enough for my LAN but not for my internet
connection.
So, my question is, How do I specify a limit for outgoing connections for
all connections but one route?
At this moment I'm using an special "smtproute" for my internal mail and DNS
for outgoing mails (to internet). I have though perhaps I could use
concurrencylocal for incoming mail and forward it to my internal mail
server, but I have not how to treat it.
Thanks in advance.

hi,
but isn't it possible to do it like in sendmail in the mailertable?
if you take the smtproutes of qmail it is nearly the same than the
mailertable of sendmail but you cannot add a line like this
domain.com:[EMAIL PROTECTED] .is this true?
i don't want that the server will act as a popserver and then forward
it. i want the smtp to forward directly.

mailertable is used to redirect mail for entire domain to another host, not
a user

There's no pop here, every incoming mail for your domain simply gets
forwarded.

Not without writing a patch. Qmail's method is more extensive and
flexible than sendmail's, anyhow.

No. The difference between simply forwarding an e-mail on to another
server and saving it locally is a little larger than it may appear.

Well, believe it or not, Kirill's suggestion doesn't make the server
`act as a popserver'. A popserver stores the mail for later
retrieval. The .qmail* files decide what happens to e-mail, not
necessarily where it is stored. Think about it. In simple terms, qmail
receives an e-mail. The domain name it is addressed to (in RCPT TO) is
not in locals, so it checks virtualdomains. It finds the domain there,
and forwards it on to prefix-domain-user locally. qmail then sees that
there is a .qmail file in ~prefix called .qmail-domain-default. It
then carries out the `commands' in this file which reroute the mail
again. So, in essence, the mail is never `stored' anywhere but gets
forwarded along a line. I think you will find that the time taken to
get one message from the outside world to the final user would be in
the...hmmm...let me think...seconds degree I would think?
