[courier-users] non-ascii characters in from-header
Hi! When I send mail from my box with courier-mta, it is received with the "CORRUPTED MESSAGE" wrapper with reference to RFC 2047. This is because my full name contains non-ascii characters and at some point in sending the message the From: header is set to 'My Fullname <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>'. The non-ascii-chars in my full name should be encoded according to RFC 2047, but they aren't. I'm not sure who adds the full name (MUA? courier?) but I suspect it is done inside courier-mta, because in the logfile I see a line like: courierd: started,id=53F5.45EDB6E6.3A55,from=,module=esmtp,host=recipient host,addr= without the full name included. What can be done about it? Thanks, Murx What can be done about it? -- Ist Ihr Browser Vista-kompatibel?

We have both aproaches, NFS and direct. We have tell courier to limit messages to 16M. We have users which never delete mail (we force the INBOX to have messages not older than 1 year, 1 day for Trash) and I have seen like 15,000+ files in some folders for users who never delete mail. The speed is directly proportional to the number of files in the Maildir, specially when IMAP threadsort and the likes are enabled. We have IMP v3 and v4 and v4 is 10x slower than v3 when accessing large maildirs with equivalent settings, so client matters too. We tried ext3 and reiserfs and after some benchmarks and torture testing decided for XFS, 2.5 years ago ext3 have some problems with heavy concurrency and some kind of superblock mismatchs after long usage, I must say all those problems no longer are the case for recent 2.6 kernels. -otto - Take Surveys.

Try telnetting in again and before the logout doing: a02 SELECT INBOX a03 IDLE You should get back a response of: + entering idle mode If you had FAM/Gamin installed (and recompiled against them) you would instead see something like: + entering ENHANCED idle mode Thunderbird needs to be told to use IDLE commands (Account Settings, Server Settings, Advanced, "Use IDLE command if server supports it). In the standard idle mode which your using, the imapd server will "poll" your selected Maildir every now and then and update the client if there have been any changes (new mail, deleted mail, changed read status, etc). In the enhanced idle mode, which you need FAM or Gamin installed and compiled against to use. The FAM/Gamin process will hook in to the Linux kernel which will tell it when there is a change to your Maildir and let you know immediately. Enhanced IDLE is both faster (since you get the notifications instantaneously) and more efficient for your server (since the client isn't asking it 5,000 times if there's any changes). The comparison I like to make is your typically family vacation trip. It's very inefficient (and annoying) for the kids to sit in the back seat asking "Are we there yet, are we there yet, are we there yet?". It's much more efficient for Dad to offer regular status updates, "The sign says we're 60 miles away...The sign says we're 13 miles away..." > Do I need FAM to get it works?

Re: [courier-users] Public Whitelist
Initially, I was not thinking of a DNS-based whitelist, but more along the lines of a published trusted IP list that could copied into an access file. This would mimic the whitelisting technique used in for the Greylisting pythonfilter. I have found that there is a DNS whitelist published by Sender Score: http://www.senderscorecertified.org/senderscorecertified/technical.php Furthermore, I was reading the documentation on DNS ACCESS LIST in << couriertcpd(8) >>. It seems that one can initialize environment variables using Access Lists. Specifically, the docs state: /var/[//n.n.n.n/] can be optionally followed by a comma and a text message, which will be used instead of the TXT record. The text message may include a single @ character somewhere in it, which will be replaced by the listed IP address. With this in mind, if one were to specify -block=allow.example.org,BOFHCHECKHELO/127.0.0.10,0 Wouldn't this result in a zero in the that variable, which should then be (theoretically) treated by couriertcpd in a similar manner as having that IP address listed in an access list with BOFHCHECKHELO=0 in front of it. Look forward to feedback on both the viability of this method for whitelisting, and also about experience anyone has with Sender Score Certified.

Hi Frederik, What's the subdir limitation for XFS? Isn't the same like for ext3? You can easy work-around a problem with the limitation adding subdirs for all your domains, e.g. example.org/001/peter, example.org/002/john, example.org/003/jane, etc. I agree that it seems a little more complicated, but if you store a path to users Maildir in a data base, that it's no problem.

Yeah, I would probably go with XFS as well. At my former workplace, we had more than 32000 customer mail boxes for a particular mail domain and with a typical mail directory structure (e.g. example.org/peter, example.org/john, example.org/jane, etc), one will run into a subdir limitation with ext3.
