Exim-Problem: unable to set gid uid

2006-03-10 Thread Gerhard Brauer
Gruesse!

Ich habe seit einer Stunde ein Problem, alle meine Recherchen liefen ins
Leere.

Main exim4 wird hier von fetchmail gefüttert bzw. dient nur als lokaler
MTA.
Von jetzt auf gleich liefert exim keine Mails mehr aus und freezed jede
Mail. Log einer lokalen Mail an meinen User:

-
2006-03-10 15:45:58 1FHisQ-k5-Lf = [EMAIL PROTECTED] U=root
P=local S=306
2006-03-10 15:45:58 1FHisQ-k5-Lf unable to set gid=1666 or uid=1666
(euid=102): local delivery to gerhard [EMAIL PROTECTED]
transport=procmail_pipe
2006-03-10 15:45:58 1FHisQ-k5-Lf failed to read delivery status for
[EMAIL PROTECTED] from delivery subprocess
2006-03-10 15:45:58 1FHisQ-k5-Lf pipe transport process returned
non-zero status 0x0100: exit code 1
2006-03-10 15:45:58 1FHisQ-k5-Lf == [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=procmail
T=procmail_pipe defer (-1)
2006-03-10 15:45:58 1FHisQ-k8-Tg =  R=1FHisQ-k5-Lf
U=Debian-exim P=local S=532
2006-03-10 15:45:58 1FHisQ-k5-Lf Frozen
---
(Sorry für Umbrüche)

Die Fehlermeldung an sich (und die Ursache) ist mir eigentlich schon
klar: exim (Owner: debian-exim uid 102) kann nicht zu meiner uid/gid
wechseln, um an procmail weiterzugeben. Aber warum auf einmal? Nichts
wurde geändert/upgedatet, lediglich den apache2 habe ich neugestartet.

Infos:
---
 - Debian sarge
 - alle Partitionen sind rw, konsistent und haben genug Platz.
 - beteiligt sind: fetchmail-exim-clamav-procmail-spamc

Sowohl google und exim-FAQ beschreiben den Fehler bis zum Erbrechen,
betrifft aber immer die Inbetriebnahme von exim. Also wenn exim ohne
setuid bzw. ausreichend privelegierter User eingerichtet wurde. Ein
Hinweis auf das Problem aus heiterem Himmel habe ich nicht gefunden.

Was habe ich unternommem/überprüft:
-
 - alle beteiligten Dienste neugestartet
 - Rechner neu gestartet ;-)
 - einen neuen User angelegt zum Testen (selbes Ergebniss)
 - im router/exim-procmail ist no_verify schon eingetragen. (FAQ)

Symptome:

 - es betrifft jeden Transport, egal ob local delivery oder procmail
 - ein sendmail -qff (unfrozen) verarbeitet die Mails in der Queue dann
 ganz normal.

Weiß jemand eine Lösung?

Gruß
Gerhard

Doch gefunden. /usr/sbin/exim4 war nicht mehr setuid gesetzt. Grrr.
Ich frage mich nur: warum, woher? Wobei mir auch nicht bewußt war, daß
es das vorher war.

Ich war's definitiv nicht (Isch habe nüscht gemacht).
Gefunden habe ich's, nachdem ich die Dateien mit dem Inhalt des debs
verglichen habe.

Es gibt ja irgendeinen daemon, der Änderungen an setuid/setgid
überwacht. Kann ich das eigentlich auch im Nachhinein irgendwo noch
feststellen? Ich greppe mal /var/log.

Eingreifen von Fremdseite kann ich definitiv ausschließen.

Jepp, bara ta bort, de innehåller tips [1] om hur exim skall hantera medelanden,

leverera ett brev oftare än vad det var tänkt (inget problem med ett par
hundra brev om dagen, ett problem vid ett par tusen brev i minuten :-).

 Annan fråga, ska jag uppgradera till Exim 4 eller rentav gå över till
 Postfix? Fördelar/nackdelar? Maskinen i fråga hanterar mail för mig och
 min familj, ett par hundra mail om dagen (lite listor och sånt).

Jag säger nog exim 4, den har en massa trevliga finesser (som support
från exim-users listan. [2]), plus att integreringen med exiscan gör
spam/virus hanteringen snudd på trivial. Postfix har jag ingen egentlig
erfarenhet av (mer en ett föredrag med Wietse Venema då den programmet
fortfarande hette VMailer) så det flamkriget håller jag mig utanför
(stånde på Exims sida:-)

This is normal.  Give it time, email is not instant.  For whatever

 I had this problem, although I recall the delay was nearer a minute.

 Are you using mutt?  In your .muttrc file you need:
 set sendmail_wait=-1
 
 Mine was previously set to 0.  After the change everything was fine.

Well, but telling the MUA not to wait for the MTA to deliver the Mails
is not a good solution. You can work without waiting, but the mail
still needs a minute more on it's way.

I'd guess exim is trying to do an ident lookup with the client, but the
client is silently dropping the ident requests.  (Bad packet filter!)
30 seconds smells like a timeout; either ident or reverse DNS.

This happens with every client?  Is there a packet filter on the server
side?  Or a DNS misconfiguration?
good times,
Vineet
The 30 seconds wait happens for all clients, and all the clients are 
behind a NAT firewall. So they are seen as one IP address ( which has an 
entry in the /etc/hosts file )
The firewalls name appears in the log files so it appears that exim is 
able to do a reverse look up.

There is not packet filter running on the server either.

Thank you for the suggestion though.

Okay, well, that's not really a good test for all clients -- by asking
that, I was trying to narrow down the problem to either the server or
the client.  If they're all going through the same connection, it
doesn't help narrow it down.

 The firewalls name appears in the log files so it appears that exim is 
 able to do a reverse look up.

Right, it sounds like your DNS lookup is probably fine in this instance.
I'd check that the NAT box isn't dropping inbound ident requests.  It
should instead be responding with TCP RST, as for all closed ports.  I'd
bet that's where your problem is.

good times,
Vineet

P.S.  Your sig is very large.  This can be considered bad netiquette.
Consider reducing its size; a good guideline is that it shouldn't exceed
4 lines (though I'm often guilty of exceeding this myself).  In any
case, aim for something that can be measured on the order of lines
rather than a half-page.

[exim] Problem mit smtp-auth

2004-01-05 Thread Steffen Hey
HAllo,

ich benutze exim3.35 und versende alle Mails über compusere - dachte ich
wenigstens. Mittlerweile ist mir aufgefallen, das die mails nur verschickt
werden, wenn ich mit CS eingewählt bin, ansonsten verschwinden meine
mails ohne Warnung oder Meldung im Datennirvana.

Zum testen habe ich mal arcor eingetragen, da erhalte ich wenigstens eine
Mail: Mail delivery failed: returning message to sender ...Relaying denied
- only use for SMTP_AUTH

Es scheint, als würde exim nicht versuchen sich zu authentifizieren.
Im folgenden ist ein Ausschnitt aus meiner exim.conf:

#TRANSPORTS CONFIGURATION 
remote_smtp:
  driver = smtp
  authenticate_hosts = smtp.compuserve.de
#  authenticate_host = postman.arcor-online.net

...

# ROUTERS CONFIGURATION
smarthost:
  driver = domainlist
  transport = remote_smtp
  route_list = * smtp.compuserve.de bydns_a
#  route_list = * postman.arcor.de bydns_a
end

...

# AUTHENTICATION CONFIGURATION
login:
   driver = plaintext
#CS-Pro
   public_name = LOGIN
   client_send = : [EMAIL PROTECTED] : 
#arcor-smarthost:
#   public_name = PLAIN
#   client_send = :  : 


Woran liegt es?

MfG Steffen

Viele Provider öffnen ihr SMTP nur, wenn dua uch übr sie drin

erlauben.

Arcor hat also SMTP-AUTH, Compuserver anscheinendn nicht.

 ich benutze exim3.35 und versende alle Mails über compuserve - dachte ich
 wenigstens. Mittlerweile ist mir aufgefallen, das die mails nur verschickt
 werden, wenn ich mit CS eingewählt bin, ansonsten verschwinden meine
 mails ohne Warnung oder Meldung im Datennirvana.
 
 Zum testen habe ich mal arcor eingetragen, da erhalte ich wenigstens eine
 Mail: Mail delivery failed: returning message to sender ...Relaying denied
 - only use for SMTP_AUTH
 
 Es scheint, als würde exim nicht versuchen sich zu authentifizieren.
 Im folgenden ist ein Ausschnitt aus meiner exim.conf:
 
 #TRANSPORTS CONFIGURATION 
 remote_smtp:
   driver = smtp
   authenticate_hosts = smtp.compuserve.de

An compuserve habe ich mich auch einmal in Sachen AMTP-Auth versucht.
Ich habe es dann irgendwann aufgegeben, weil compuserve seine
SMTP-Server wohl etwas anders konfiguriert hat.
AFAIK scheiterte die Authentifizierung an einem fehlenden oder
zu vielen Gleichheitszeichen in der SMTP-Kommunikation zu Beginn der
Verbindung.
Verbinde Dich mal via telnet auf Port 25 von smtp.compuserve.de, setze
ein EHLO hostname ab und vergleiche den Output _akribisch_ mit dem
von postman.arcor.de.

 #  authenticate_host = postman.arcor-online.net

Kann der denn auch SMTP-Auth?
Ich habe dort postman.arcor.de eingetragen, mit dem es auch hinhaut.

Gruss,
Christian

Re: exim problem - SMTP error from remote mailer after AUTH PLAIN

2004-01-04 Thread Jerome R. Acks
Solved. I had to change entries in /etc/email-addresses from
[EMAIL PROTECTED] to [EMAIL PROTECTED] 

Mozilla mail can still send emails using
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Mozilla Thunderbird cannot and needs to use
[EMAIL PROTECTED] like exim. What is the difference between the way
mozilla mail does SMTP authentication and mozilla-thunderbird or exim?

|  What exactly does error 334 VXNlcm5hbWU6 mean?

The 334 is the response code from the server.  The data after it is
base64 encoded and decodes to Username:.

Aha.  I guess when the server didn't like the username/passwd pair you
sent it decided to switch from AUTH PLAIN to AUTH LOGIN.  However,
exim wasn't expecting an interactive prompt for the username and
password, so it stopped processing right then.  (BTW, AUTH LOGIN is
not actually defined in any standard)

I don't know, use ethereal to see what is actually being sent across
the wire.  Different server, perhaps?

mailman/exim problem

So here goes it.

I have mailman 90% working. Automated, mailman originated messages (such 
as subscribe request confirmations originating at the server (ala the 
invite tool)), admin and user interface works. I can send and recieve 
mail via local user accounts ('ve tested this thoroughly). My exim.conf 
(attached) looks to be pretty tight, and aliases (attached) appears to 
be set up correctly.

Replying to administrivia/relaying normal list traffic is still broke, 
as is access to the public archive (which really doesn't exist due to 
the fact messages aren't being sent). I've sent about 4 test messages 
that have caused this:

Now, in aliases, I tried putting root one space after the colon (in 
between the pipe to |var/lib/blah/blah and listadmin*:) and wound up 
with frozen messages. Reloading mailman (forcibly at times) has not 
helped with either the frozen messages or the above situation. I can't 
decide if it's Debian related or purely mailman related. Any help would 
be greatly appreciated.

I think that did the trick. I restarted both exim and mailman and I'm

exim problem - SMTP error from remote mailer after AUTH PLAIN

2004-01-03 Thread Jerome R. Acks
For over a year now I've been using fetchmail, procmail, exim 3.36, and 
mutt to send and receive email. After going away for three days, I 
return to find that I can no longer send email via exim. I can still 
send email using mozilla mail.

Langsam. Für Address Rewriting bin ich kein Experte. Ich
sagte lediglich, daß es mir gelungen ist, nach dem
Domainteil sortiert mehrere SMTP-Server zu bedienen samt
Authentifizierung.

Mit dem Rewriting kämpfe ich selber noch.

Einfaches Exim Problem

2003-11-13 Thread Fabian Brännström
Hallo Leute,

ich versuche seit Tagen eine einfache Exim.conf zu erstellen, die mir es
ermöglicht, als alleiniger User(fab) Mails über mail.gmx.de,
mailto.btx.dtag.de und mailto.tu-berlin.de zu verschicken; dabei muss
natürlich die Absendeadresse angepasst werden.

Ich bin nach folgender Anleitung vorgegangen:
http://www.openoffice.de/linux/buch/email.html

so dass ich mittlererweile über gmx versenden kann. 
Große Probleme bereitet mir noch immer t-online und tu-berlin
einzubinden. Hierfür habe ich folgende Anleitung gefunden:
http://www.linuxer.onlinehome.de/apps/exim.htm
Kapitel:11. Mehrere Smarthosts mit Authentifizierung

Ich somit folgende Veränderungen zur einfachen gmx-Version gemacht:



##
#  TRANSPORTS CONFIGURATION  #
##

###remote_smtp:
###  driver = smtp
### authenticate_hosts = mail.gmx.de

 remote_smtp:   
  driver = smtp
  authenticate_hosts = mail.gmx.net:mailto.tu-berlin.de

...
...


##
#  ROUTERS CONFIGURATION #
#Specifies how remote addresses are handled  #
##

###smarthost:
###  driver = domainlist
###  transport = remote_smtp
###  route_list = * mail.gmx.de bydns_a

  
smarthost_mail_gmx_net:   
condition = ${if eq {${lc:$sender_address_domain}}{gmx\.de}{true} fail}:   
driver =
domainlist
transport =
remote_smtp
 route_list = * mail.gmx.net
bydns_a  

 
smarthost_auth_mail_onlinehome_de:   
 condition = ${if eq
{${lc:$sender_address_domain}}{tu-berlin\.de}{true} fail}:
 driver =
domainlist
 transport =
remote_smtp
 route_list = * mailto.tu-berlin.de
bydns_a   
   
 end

...
...

##
#  REWRITE CONFIGURATION #
##

[EMAIL PROTECTED]${lookup{$1}lsearch{/etc/email-addresses}\
### {$value}fail} frFs

[EMAIL PROTECTED] $header_from: Fs  
end




##
#   AUTHENTICATION CONFIGURATION #
##

### cram_md5:
###   driver = cram_md5
###   public_name = CRAM-MD5
###   client_name = xxx
###   client_secret = xxx

   plain:
 driver = plaintext
 public_name = PLAIN
 client_send =
^${extract{3}{::}{${lookup{$sender_address}lsearch{/etc/exim/passwd.client}{$value}fail}}}^${extract{4}{::}{${lookup{$sender_address}lsearch{/etc/exim/passwd.client}{$value}fail}}}



Meine passwd.client sieht dabei so aus:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:fab:mail.gmx.de:xxxusernamexxx:xxxpasswortxxx
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:fab:mailto.tu-berlin.de:xxxusernamexxx:xxxpasswortxxx


Das ganze funktioniert aber nicht!?

Mich verwirrt ein wenig folgender Eintrag am Anfang der config:

qualify_domain = gmx.de

Dieser müsste sich doch auch dem verwendeten Provider anpassen?

Hat jemand vielleicht ein paar Hinweise, wie ich es besser machen kann?

Beste Grüße!
Fabian

nicht funktioniert?

Hast Du mal versucht, die Mail ueber ein anderes SMTP-Relay

 Mir scheint, da ist in Exim irgendwas fehlkonfiguriert. Was?

Muss nicht sein. Man darf ruhig auch einmal in Betracht ziehen, dass
Rechner auf der anderen Seite der Leitung falsch konfiguriert sind.

 Was hat das mit den rcpthosts aus sich? (Was ist das? Kann mich
 nicht erinnern, sowas konfiguriert zu haben).

Das wuesste ich jetzt gerne, was Du da konfiguriert haben willst.
rcpthosts=Recipient host=Empfaengerrechner.

 Der Provider verwendet smtp afet pop. Da ich aber alle 10 Minuten
 meine Emails abrufe und dann 30 Minuten lang Emails verschicken
 kann, sollte ich dadurch doch eigentlich keine Probleme
 bekommen...

So ist dieses System gedacht. Bietet denn der Provider neben POP3
auch POP3S an? Der Dienst laeuft ueber Port 995 und bietet
verschluesselte Mailuebertragung an, so dass Du auf die
SMTP-AFTER-POP-Methode verzichten koenntest.

Exim: problem mit mail loop(?)

2003-01-04 Thread Marc Schiffbauer
Hallo *,

ich habe hier ein Problem mit meinem Mailserver, und weiss nicht,
wie ich es lösen soll.

Folgendes:

pluto:~# mailq
28m   97K 18Ujut-00079S-00 @schiffbauer.net
  @schiffbauer.net

pluto:~#

Da klemmt also eine Mail, die an einen Leeren String als mailbox
gerichtet ist. 97k Gross. Sie besteht eigendlich nur aus
Fehlermeldungen (s.u.) und hat keinen erkennbaren ursprünglichen
Inhalt. 

Wie kann man nachvollziehen, wo diese Mail ursprünglich herkommt?

Exim config:
 - kein offener Relayserver (Mails dürfen nur mit vorheriger
   Authentifizierung versendet werden.
 - mails an unbekannte mailboxen werden zurückgewiesen
 - amavis ist konfiguriert und funktioniert (Mails mit Testviren
   werden gemeldet)

Z.Z. arbeiten mit mit nur ca. 1-3 Leute auf dem Server.

Im mainlog sehe ich nur Meldungen wie:

2003-01-04 10:14:11 18UkNf-0007ZW-00 =  R=18UkNe-0007ZP-00 U=mail P=local S=101790

2003-01-04 10:14:11 18UkNf-0007Zf-00 Completed

und das *sehr* oft, eben nur immer mit anderen Message IDs.

Die mail selber hört auch scheinbar mitten in einer Fehlermeldung
auf, sodass man den Ursprung nicht direkt erkennen kann.

Weiss jemand Rat, wie man da weitermachen kann? Irgendwie muss man doch
rausbekommen können, ob, und wenn ja welcher Dienst das vielleicht
sein könnte.

Ich für jeden Tip dankbar!

Ratlos
-Marc

 Die mail selber hört auch scheinbar mitten in einer Fehlermeldung

Das die Mail mittendrin aufhört liegt wohl an der return_size_limit
Einstellung von Exim, der schneidet die einfach ab.

Aus der Exim-Doku:
return_size_limit

Type: integer
Default: 100K 

This option sets a limit in bytes on the size of messages that are
returned to senders. If it is set to zero there is no limit. If the body
of any message that is to be included in an error report is greater than
the limit, it is truncated, and a comment pointing this out is added at
the top. The actual cutoff may be greater than the value given, owing to
the use of buffering for transferring the message in chunks. The idea is
just to save bandwidth on those undeliverable 15-megabyte messages. If
either the global or generic transport message_size_limit is set, the
value of return_size_limit should be somewhat smaller.

Ansonsten sieht das für mich so aus, als wüsste amavis nicht an welchen
User er seine Fehlermeldungen zustellen soll, aber da ich amavis nicht
nutze ist das nur ne Vermutung.

Mails, die amavis erstellt, wenn er nen Virus gefunden hat, kommen

aus /etc/amavisd.conf:

$mailfrom = 'postmaster';

# who quarantined viruses appear to be sent from (envelope sender)
#$mailfrom_quarantine = $mailfrom;  # same as for notifications
$mailfrom_quarantine = undef;   # use original sender

# whom to send admin virus notifications
# - catchall if %mailto lookup hash does not find a match (e.g. it
# is empty)
#   and for backwards compatibility
$mailto = 'virusalert';


$mailfrom_quarantine kann eigendlich nichts damit zu tun haben, da
die loop mails unabhängig und vor allem öfter auftreten als es einen
Virus gibt.

exim problem?

2002-12-15 Thread Eric R Cheney

Hello.  I have exim set up at home.  Problem is that I can't e-mail
directly to my box from a host external to the network.  I can fetch mail 
using fetchmail from outside the network, but that's it.  When I try to 
e-mail from an external host to the box, I eventually get a message 
saying failed MX lookup. 

I can get other network trafic through though, such as ftp and http.  
I have a dsl/router that forwards stuff to the box I want it toI have 
it forwarding port 25 stuff to the box I can't e-mail to.  

Any ideas what is wrong?

Someone already mentioned (replied off-list, and thanks) that exim is

my problem is with a imapd server  I have a uw-imapd running,

http, etc).  Eventually get an e-mail from the external sending 
host failed MX lookup.

So what do I need to setup so that mail is received directly?  Again, 
fetchmail will work, but I can't get it directly sent (I have a domain 
name, etc.).  And, what tcp/ip port should I have my dsl/router

 Someone already mentioned (replied off-list, and thanks) that exim is
 for sending mail; so my problem isn't with exim.  

Now I re-read your original query - I understand a bit more of what you are 
trying to do. 

I don't think its exim, but also I think you may be confusing several things.

A brief explanation about how mail works.  When someone sends mail to 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] they have an MTA (like exim - but at their end) which 
attempts to find who is dealing with mail for yourdomain.com.  It does this 
via a nameserver (dns) lookup for yourdomain.com and ask the nameserver for 
the MX record.  This tells which of (possibly several - they have priorities) 
ip addresses to contact (via port 25).  In your case, I it appears this is 
soc.umass.edu.  In which case they get told is either ponzi.oit.umass.edu 
(128.119.166.18) or supai.oit.umass.edu (128.119.175.6) - but I assume these 
actually work - so are you setting up a domain name for yourself?

In my case, doing an MX lookup on chandlerfamily.org.uk will point you at 
someone who is hosting the domain name servers for my domain and mail goes 
via them, to another name I have asked for mail to be forwarded - my isp.

I get the mail from my ISP using fetchmail (using pop3), which sends it to my 
local copy of exim (via port 25) which then puts it onto a disk on my local 
server (I could deliver it directly to my local box if I wanted to).  I then 
use courier-imap to provide pop3 and imap services to my whole family who use 
various mail programs to read the mail.

The return journey for mail is similar.  My mail program (kmail) sends it to 
my local copy of exim via port 25.  It could (but doesn't) deliver it 
directly, doing MX lookups etc, but instead sends it on to my isp which then 
queues it there and then does MX lookups on the address it is trying to send 
the mail to.


So I guess
 my problem is with a imapd server  I have a uw-imapd running,

? Which imapd server, I don't think that comes it to it.

 and that works internally (i.e. inside the home I can use
 mozilla to read mail from the mail server via another internal
 box).  But again, sending mail directly to the mail box from an
 external host won't work (though other tcp stuff works like ftp,
 http, etc).  Eventually get an e-mail from the external sending
 host failed MX lookup.

This sounds like a nameserver problem - can you understand the issues from the 
text I have written above


 So what do I need to setup so that mail is received directly?  Again,
 fetchmail will work, but I can't get it directly sent (I have a domain
 name, etc.).  And, what tcp/ip port should I have my dsl/router
 set up for forwarding to the mail server?

You need to get your domain hosting company to point the MX records at the 
address of your mail box.  However, beware - if you have a network behind 
the dsl/router it probably has private addresses and the router is doing 
address translation (I half assumed that is what you meand when you say you 
forwared port25) - in which case you want to set the MX records to point to 
the ip address of the address translation box, and then tell that where to 
forward port25.

Whether this is a good idea is debatably.  The rest of the internet expects MX 
machines to be available all the time - if you power your box down it may be 
better to do what I do and forward through your isp, and use fetchmail to get 
the mail before sending via exim.  Of course of your ip address varies 
because your dsl provided allocates ip addresses dynamically then you will 
have problems.


 Thank you for your thoughts.

I hope this helps

I looked in the archives and didn't see anything about this but sometimes I do

For two days now, my outgoing mail hasn't been going out though I am receiving

Here is a sample of the messages I am getting.
Not sure this will go out either, but thought I'd try.
thanks.
Actually, a few pieces of my outgoing seem to be getting there too, but
not to certain hosts.

You don't allow relaying for your computer.  Using localhost (or
127.0.0.1) instead of 192.168.100.21 as your SMTP-server in mozilla
might fix it.

But you should take a look at everything related to relay in the
config file and the exim docs anyway to understand what this is about.

Hint: you probably allow relay for localhost but not for
192.168.100.21.  Since you address the server not on its local address
but the one bound to its NIC (network interface card), the mail
doesn't seem to come from localhost (127.0.0.1).

 curiously, mail can be sent using mail address command.

It uses exim directly, not through SMTP.

Ciao,

Well, you will have to investigate a little.

Is host_accept_relay set to 127.0.0.1 : 1?

What is your email address in Mozilla set to? If I use my public email

never use Mozilla as my email client before, and I truly surprised

I have not seen this one, but most likely you need to look in

showing up as a relay. Most likely because of the way /etc/hosts or

which Mozilla is delivering mail is not the same as the IP + hostname
that exim is running on. So it will not relay it on (which is A Good

exim problem solved. how do i configure mozilla?

2002-10-26 Thread Sandip P Deshmukh
hello all!

patience pays. the error that made me go through all the trouble was in 
the first section of exim.conf file.

here is the relevant section:

##
#MAIN CONFIGURATION SETTINGS #
##

# Specify the domain you want to be added to all unqualified addresses
# here. Unqualified addresses are accepted only from local callers by
# default. See the receiver_unqualified_{hosts,nets} options if you want
# to permit unqualified addresses from remote sources. If this option is
# not set, the primary_hostname value is used for qualification.

qualify_domain = deshmukh.work

now, my smarthost 192.168.100.1, does not understand deshmukh.work and 
would not send messages out. exim however, did the job of delivering. 
the bounce wont reach me because deshmukh.work is not understood by my 
smarthost.

so, it was set right and using shell login, i am able to send messages 
to all!!

so far so good.

now, i changed smtp server in my mozilla to 192.168.100.21 - my 
machine's ip address. it is unable to deliver message. the error i get is:

an error occured while sending mail. the mail server responded: relayin 
to [EMAIL PROTECTED] prohibited by administrator. (failed 
to find hostname from ip address). please check mail receipients and try 
again

curiously, mail can be sent using mail address command.

easy? exim problem

2002-03-13 Thread Cam
Hey,

I'm having a little problem w/ exim... I've set it up many times in the
past successfully, but this time I cannot seem to do it.  I have it so
that it delivers 'local mail only' but that doesn't work at all for some
reason (shouldn't local mail only always work??).  Anyway, if i try to
send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], or cmatheson, or [EMAIL PROTECTED], it
seems to go fine, but i never get the message (mutt reports that there
is no /var/mail/cmatheson (which is true, so i tried `touch`ing it, but
that didn't help).  Anyway, here's a snip from my exim log (everything
appears to be fine:

I would suggest you look at getting the package libdb2 and libdb2-dev 
(Berkeley v2 Database Libraries) which exim needs (note you may need V3
for exim 3.33 - I don't know...)

I'm assuming you have a reason for not wanting to use the precomiled
packages (since you've gone for 3.33 and SID is only at 3.22)

exim problem - rejecting senders

2001-09-30 Thread Sam Varghese
I have a rather peculiar problem with exim 3.12 on a potato
server.

I had a list of spammers' domains  which I wanted to block.
As per the exim specs, I created a file, entered the IPs and 
used the host_reject_recipients option. A few days after I did this, 
mail from two people, whose IP is not on the list, was not
coming through.

Once I commented out the host_reject_recipients line, mail
from these two people got through.

A few days back, I used the host_reject line to block a single
domain. Once again, mail from the same two people would not
come through. After I commented out the line, the mail from
these two addresses came through.

It mystifies me. Has anyone on the list experienced anything
similar?

fetchmail/exim problem

2001-08-17 Thread Bruce Z. Lysik

Hi folks,

Just recently I started having a wierd fetchmail problem.  This morning I
noticed I didn't have any email.  Pretty odd.  I'm running woody, exim, and
fetchmail. Checking /var/log/mail.log I see:

Aug 17 00:09:44 quicksilver fetchmail[30949]: 612 messages for eldrik at
maelstr
om.logrus.com (2056876 octets).

Aug 17 00:09:44 quicksilver fetchmail[30949]: Query status=6 (IOERR)

I had fetchmail running as fetchmail, with this in /etc/fetchmailrc:

# Configuration created Thu Apr 13 16:36:10 2000 by fetchmailconf
poll maelstrom.logrus.com with proto POP3
  user eldrik there with password  is eldrik here options
forcecr

I tried running fetchmail as my local user, and it delivered to exim fine.
Then I set in /etc/defaults/fetchmail, RUNASROOT=true, and it delivers fine.

Anyone have any ideas?

 Exim version is 2.05 #1.
 

Exim is treating the messages as if they *don't* appear in local_domains,
so first check:
 - Are you running Exim as a daemon? If so, make sure you stop  restart it.
 - Is the spelling really really right, and the local_domains setting in
   the right section (near the top) of exim.conf, and do you really have
   only one local_domains setting?
 - Are you sure Exim is using the config file you think it's using?

You can verify that Exim is reading the correct value for local_domains
by running as root
 # exim -bP local_domains

There is a generic router option called self that you can use to force
Exim to accept itself as an MX for domains not listed in local_domains,
but you shouldn't use it - find and fix the problem you have, rather than
working around it and introducing a potential DOS weakness.

Finally, once a message is frozen it stays that way until you change 
it (unless you have used the auto_thaw option in exim.conf), so
even once things are working OK you'll have to use something like
 # exim -M message-id 

to place them back in the delivery queue.

Exim Problem (I think....)

1999-06-30 Thread Peter Ludwig
I'm running slink (upgraded to potato), and I seem to be having a minor
problem with exim.  I cannot receive any email using the system under linux.

I am running exim  fetchmail

Exim version 3.0-2, fetchmail ()

Before I upgraded exim, everything worked really well, now (since 3.0-1
actually) it's not working.

For added information here's the error message reported by exim when it
attempts to load :-

Socket Creation Failed: Invalid Arguement

I've been having some problems with my system otherwise at the moment
(mainly the fact that the kernel is refusing to compile at present... not
sure what's going on there, but I need to recompile the silly thing... I'm
running kernel 2.2.9 BTW)...

If anyone has any ideas on this matter, please email me directly as I'm not
on the mailing list anymore (my ISP got very annoyed with me for filling my
email box with mailing list messages...)

The latest exim will not work with fetchmail (at least not for me).
This has been discussed on this mailing list a couple of days ago, and also
on the exim mailing list.

It has to do with IPV6 support, and there is a fix out, but this means you will
have to compile exim from source. If you prefer to use the exim deb, you will
probably have to downgrade to 2.11 and put it on hold until a deb comes along
with the fix applied.

Remember to replace /etc/exim.conf with the one from before the upgrade after
having downgraded to 2.11.

I can back this up. I'm also running kernel 2.2.10(-ac5) with no IPv6
support, and Exim (3.02-1) is working fine here also.

Having seen the recent problems with Exim being posted to the list, I
thought that was my problem when my outgoing mail stopped working the
other day, however after some poking around I discovered it was in
fact Mutt looking for sendmail (and failing) that was my problem. This
is a known bug in Mutt, and the solution is listed in the Debian bug

I did a fresh install of Deb v2.1 using the 'Web Server plus' option.

It loaded a couple of things different from v1.3.

I have successfully run email between two computers in the office.
However, when I try to email to this group I get an error message. Not
surprisingly, I didn't write it down. The error message implied that I
didn't have access to lists.debian.org.

This could be a DNS (ypbind) problem. I could turn ypbind off but I
would still have to get DNS from somewhere.

I'm printing off the documentation for exim (277 pages) as I enter this
but I wonder if I'm going the wrong direction.

Re: Exim Problem

1998-04-30 Thread Graham Lillico +44 1785 248131
   Do you have this in /etc/host.conf?
   
   order hosts,bind
   
   this should tell DNS to look in /etc/hosts before looking into named
   (or at least this is what I think it should do :)
  
  Yep that is what is in my /etc/host.conf file. and it still don't work, it
look
  to me like exim and smail (which I have tried on my second machine) as
just
  doing a DNS lookup and ignoring the /etc/host.conf file.  I have
configured
  both exim and smail using the debian config programs. and selected option
1,
  internet mail, as the other options don't seem to take into account if you
are
  not connected to the internet,  I think the problem is that my nameserver
is
  just a cacheing name server and so doesn't do reverse lookups,  
 
 Why shouldn't a cache DNS server cache reverse lookup? Have you tried this?
 I'm asking this because I usually work in closed domains (i.e. no connection
 to the net) so I have to build my DNS server and don't use cache server that
 much.

well I have finally fixed this problem, I had to configure a full namserver as
for some reason, a cacheing nameserver just didn't so the job, I even tried
smail to see if it was a exim problem and the same thing happened.
 
  Could this be the problem or should I reconfigre exim/smail using the
config
  progam?  If I reconfigure them using the config program which option
should I
  use?
 
 Well, I don't know, sorry. I've just started playing with exim, and as you
see
 (my msg to the list) I have my problems with it too.
 There doesn't seem to be a lot of exim expert these days. :(
 Sorry I can't be much help

Check out /etc/host.conf. If you give order hosts,bind there, the
resolver
will always look at /etc/hosts before consulting DNS. This may or may
not help you.

RE: MAIL: Odd smail-exim problem

1997-10-24 Thread George Bonser

bar.com!foo.com!%s will not work because smail generates a routing error
because the address must be in internet format for that transport.

Yes this DOES work.  I do not know why it did not work when I tried it earlier.
I must have made a type someplace.

All is working well if I put the intermediate stop in there.

MAIL: Odd smail-exim problem

1997-10-24 Thread George Bonser
I know this is not debian specific but maybe someone here has experiance with
this. I have a smail mailhost that sends mail using demand_inet_uusmtp
transport to send mail to a second system using exim that is ultimately bound
for a third system. My mail/force.path entry for the destination site looks
like this:

foo.com bar.com!%s

which tells smail to send any mail for foo.com to bar.com.  

bar.com!foo.com!%s will not work because smail generates a routing error
because the address must be in internet format for that transport.

Now imagine I am sending a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Smail sends it with the correct To: header BUT the RCPT TO is changed to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and the exim site (foo) bounces it.  If the intermediate site 
is
smail, everything works correctly ... it looks like smail tooks at To: while
exim looks at the ENVELOPE and smail rewrites the envelope.

I suppose my question is either 1) How do I tell smail that mail to bar.com
goes through foo.com using internet addressing with batched SMTP WITHOUT
changing the envelope RCPT TO to foo.com. In other words, deliver the mail to
foo.com with a RCPT TO of [EMAIL PROTECTED]

OR

How do I tell exim to use the To: header rather than the envelope RCPT TO for
delivery?

Exim 1.62-3 (Debian)
Smail 3.2 (Debian)
