Greetings.
I'd like to set up a virtual subdomain on my systems. Something like
"spamgoeshere.manxome.org",
and have mail for [EMAIL PROTECTED] delivered to uname-spam-ext on
the mail
exchanger.
I don't want all unames to be equivocal, though, so I don't think virtualhost fits the
bill.
I guess I could use procmail for this, but it would be /way/ more complicated.
Help?

It could. You would do the spamgoeshere.manxome.org:spamuser trick in
virtualdomains, then have ~alias/.qmail-spamuser-default file which does
something like:
|/path/to/forward "$DEFAULT"-spam@domain
I'm not sure what the -ext part of your question above refers to.

Hypothetical: I go and buy a bicycle from Bikestore Inc. They ask for my
email. I say, "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Then, that mail gets delivered to bob-spam-bikestore (processed by my
.qmail-spam-bikestore).

Hi.
I'm using qmail-1.03
I'm having problems sending mail from withing perl
scripts. The scirpt I used worked perfectly on a linux server using sendmail.
Now I'n using it on our news server with qmail. The scirpt functions okay, but
there is no mail sent.
I've made the proper links to
/var/qmail/bin/sendmail.
When I start sendmail -t (the same way the script
does) I can create mail messages, but the script doesn't
Anyone has an idea what's causing the
problems?
Thanks,
Vincent

You haven't given us any information that would allow us to figure out what
is going wrong.
The obvious debugging technique is to record a copy of what you are piping
to sendmail to see if that is a problem. It also isn't clear that you
properly tested that you were running the same program your script is.
You want to make sure you try using the full path used by the script.
Hi...
i finished installing qmail in FreeBSD 4.2 , i success send to another
user in localy, but if i send remote to my ISP failure, please help me

You could include the bounce message. Then we could diagnose the
problem. Your question is like "My car doesn't work, what's the
problem?"
Regards, Frank
Some mail clients (MS Outlook) interpret the mail headers
and decide that my mail is sent 'on behalf of' My Name.
Possibly this is because they see a header 'Sender: ' that
does not match the 'From: ' header.
How can I make 'Sender: ' match 'From: ' ?
As the courtesy to users of all persuasions, how can I
avoid the 'on behalf of' message?
Example header is listed below. You can see my box claims to
be in the zinias.nl domain, when it really sits in the a200.nl.
The zinias.nl domain exists, but is hosted somewhere else.
Of course it's probably easier to look at the headers of this
mail yourself.
I run a linux box.
Tia,
Guus.

It's your mua which adds the Sender: header. You could try
configuring your client to add a more sane Sender: header,
or use a mua which doesn't add such a header.

Can qmail rewrite headers?

All,
What is the procedure under qmail to rewrite addresses under virtual
domains? For example, I have a customer with several domains, and they
would like (.*)@foo.com to be rewritten to \\[EMAIL PROTECTED] How can I do this?
TIA,

Does [http://cr.yp.to/qmail/faq/incominguser.html#luser-relay] do it for
you? (Assume all @foo.com addresses are unrecognized and need to be
forwarded to @bar.net.)

I've been contemplating rewriting the patch to do an exec of
{ "/bin/sh", "-c", $QMAILQUEUE } instead of exec'ing $QMAILQUEUE as-is.
This would allow for putting the contents of the script named by
$QMAILQUEUE (which is frequently a one-line shell script anyways) into
the variable itself. Are there any downsides to this approach other
than the obvious overhead of adding /bin/sh to the execution path? Is
this overhead significant enough to make such a modification a bad idea?

Are there quoting problems to expect? If yes, I would leave the patch
the way it is now.

Given that the same thing is currently done by writing a one-line shell
script, I really can't see the advantage given the extra overhead...
I've had several occassions with other products where I have the opposite
problem. They allow you to call "/bin/sh -c 'program arg1 arg2...'", and I
find it doesn't work as expected. So I end up writing one-line shell scripts
and call that instead :-)

Arguable, at best. For sending a single message, the only difficult
part of QMTP is calculating the total sizes before sending the package.
After that point, you just send all the data and wait for the response.
The server is forbidden from sending a response until the last byte of
the package is received. Much simpler than the back-and-forth of SMTP.
However, this does nothing to answer his original problem, which is
likely solveable without dealing with any external protocols.

Filters executed by qmail-qfilter have their standard output (where
print goes by default) connected up to either the next filter or to
qmail-queue to go into the mail spool. If you want to print an error,
print to STDERR.
BTW, the deny-filetypes catches virtually all current and future
incidences of Snow White and similar viruses.

You need to remove the backquotes (`). In most UNIX shells, the
backquotes work by executing the command within the backquotes, and then
substituting the output from the command into the command-line
arguments. So, running "find" listed /var/qmail/queue/remote/0/277955
as the first file found, which the shell promptly tried to execute. It
is of course not executable, so permission denied.

Hi guys,
I've installed the mdk (Mandrake) qmail rpm package on my Mandrake 7.2 box.
I've got it set up so that it's dealing with local mail quite nicely, and now
i'm ready to use fetchmail, which is also installed, to download mail from a
pop server.
qmail is running. If i check the ps listing, i see, in part:
[root@homer init.d]# ps -ef |grep qmail
root 29806 29805 1 Jun01 ? 02:43:31 supervise qmail-pop3d
root 29808 29805 0 Jun01 ? 00:00:00 supervise qmail-send
root 29810 29805 1 Jun01 ? 02:55:05 supervise qmail-smtpd
Shouldn't qmail-smtpd be listening to port 25? If i try to telnet to port 25 of
my own box (from my own box) i get "Connection refused". My firewall is totally
disabled at the time that i am working on this.
If i can't get this to work, then obviously fetchmail can't do it's job. Can
anyone help me on this?
Thanks,
John

That means svscan knows about it, but hasn't been told to start it.
I don't know Thing One about the Mandrake rpm, so you may have an init
script which does this, but what you specifically need to do is this
(assuming here for the sake of argument that svscan uses /service as
its working directory):
# svc -u /service/qmail-*
Then your ps should tell a very different story.
Good luck -d

Hi all,
Can you help me to save all mails which are outgoing from my SMTP. So
can you give me an advice or a program to do that. I have seen that the
question had been asked by an other qmail user, but i hadn't no answer.
Does the solution exists?
Thank you!!
