Just finalized some more tracing and look what I found in Qmail Wiki :
I see a message in my smtp log that states
"User_and_password_not_set,_continuing_without_authentication".
What is going on?
That message is just the remote-auth patch saying that the destination
did not have a username/password set in smtproutes, which is usually the
intended behavior. This is a diagnosis tool for people who actually set
artificial routes that require login/password. This is not an error
message and can be safely ignored.
So nothing to worry abot then ?
Cheers,
Finn

Hi Eric & Eric.
I have same issue in my send log - big difference is though that I do
have known mailadresses in between the <> (e.g. <n...@mailaddr.dk>) -
only happens when sending outgoing mails - all outgoing mails.
This seems to have been a known issue with qmail back in 2006
according to findings on the net - there was entry made in bugzilla
then, but I cannot find it anymore.
Regards,
Finn

Hello list,
I have messages in my 'send' log with the following format:

The odd part is from the 2nd line:
'from <>'
And corresponding message in my queue:
messages in queue: 1
messages in queue but not yet preprocessed: 0

Does anyone know what this means, that is, is my server being used as a
relay somehow?

Peculiar all right.
I looked for ' from <>' in my send log and found a few entries. Then
I found corresponding double-bounce messages in my postmaster
account. Turns out, they were submitted with authentication for an
account that's hardly ever used (if at all). I changed the password
(was pretty weak) and I expect things will be ok now.
Generally speaking, I'd look for corresponding messages in the the
smtp/submission queues to see how the message entered the host.
Chances are there's a breach.
Might be worth looking for ' from <>' occasionally in the send logs
to see what might be going on.
Thanks EB!
