Jim,

 

Since the qmailtoaster is just qmail, this document may lead you in the
right direction.

Perhaps Jake or Erik can interject about where in the process the
domainkeys and spamassassin (and soon-to-be spamdyke) pieces fit in.

 

 

 

Sincerely,

maybe i asked in a wrong way.

 

But , if someone could give me any info at all about how an item of mail


moves through a server, both in and out and eventually disappears. That
would be wonderful.

 

thanks much.

Subject: [qmailtoaster] The path and life of a mail

 

Friends,

 

Could someone tell me where / how a individual piece of mail might
travel into and out of my qmailToaster email server.

incoming and outgoing.

 

I know that there is

home/vpopmail/domains/theppsgroup/"NAME"/maildir/new   and   current (
curr )

 

what i would like to know are the stops & hops that happen ( que &
simscan )

And in reagrds to simscan is it ClamAV first and Then SpamAssassin or
both at once?

 

when I send email from my dsktop ...where does it immediately go in the
server ?

Util it ultimately then gets 'delivered' to the destination server.
Isn't it then "Gone"?

 

and when someone sends something to my account ...it comes in where and
how does it travel?  simsan and the like.

 

I have done some poking and testing... But would love to hear the whole
1-2-3  from someone who really knows.

 

 

thanks much

 

jim
