Spaces and IMAP searching with Cyrus
A number of my users have been reporting problems with searching. It seems like the Cyrus server is totally ignoring whitespace when performing searches. This behavior causes quite a few false positives in my searches. For example, a search for "logo" will return messages with the following subject: "Log of changes for ws". This can make it very hard to find some messages. Is it possible to reconfigure Cyrus to not match results that cross word boundaries or to respect spaces? This behavior is pretty non-intuitive. -- Ted Cabeen http://www.pobox.com/~secabeen[EMAIL PROTECTED] Check Website or Keyserver for PGP/GPG Key BA0349D2 [EMAIL PROTECTED] "I have taken all knowledge to be my province." -F.

A couple of questions about virtual domains before we setup our virtual domain system. 1) What realm is sent to the SASL layer when a user logs in with an unqualified username?

There are two ways that qpopper can generate UIDs, depending on how you have it configured. They're both hashes of the body and a few header fields. Depending on how you have it configured, there may also be a random string added to the hash input. If you have it configured to add the random hash, then the UID is generated once when the message is first downloaded, and then stored in the message in the X-UIDL header. If you don't want every downloaded message to have to edited to add the X-UIDL header, you can tell qpopper to generate the UID without the random input part and it will re-generate the UID off of the message data every time. The best place to find the details is in the qpopper source. The file popper/pop_uidl.c has all of the gory details. > Another option for me is to force all users to use IMAP (which would be nice). > The problem here is that the first time a user connects ALL of the messages > will be marked as 'unread'.

If you have qpopper setup to add Status headers to the messages on the server, there is a patch to reconstruct floating around that will use the Status: header in the message to set the seen data and the like during the reconstruct. Check the list archives, as I think it was posted recently and should make it into the next stable release. -- Ted Cabeen http://www.pobox.com/~secabeen[EMAIL PROTECTED] Check Website or Keyserver for PGP/GPG Key BA0349D2 [EMAIL PROTECTED] "I have taken all knowledge to be my province." -F.

If you've got 5 people with different settings, you can run spamassassin one time and still have individual preferences. The score of a message is not determined by a user's SA preferences in most cases. In general, every recipient will get the same score for the message. The only thing that changes is whether the message's score is sufficient to tag the message as spam. amavisd-new is designed around this method. It runs the spam check, gets a result and then compares the score of the message to the threshold for each recipient. Depending on their threshold, the message is either tagged as spam or not. Do many of your users have SA preference requirements that they would get a different score for a message than other users? Also, for whitelists and the like, you can just add sieve rules for the whitelisting before you check the X-Spam-Flag header. -- Ted Cabeen Sr. Systems/Network Administrator Impulse Internet Services

If you're using postfix, amavisd-new is quite nice. It does single
spam scan per message, regardless of numberrecipients and allows for
SQL-based storage of SA preferences.

We have a web interface that allows for the simple installation of
predefined rules for filter and delete spam. For advanced stuff, we
use standard Sieve scripts.

You can get around this by using the transport table. Setup a domain like special.adnovum.ch and use the transport table to specify that the local transport should be used for that domain. You can then alias the addresses that need program deliveries to addresses @special.adnovum.ch and they'll use the entries in your aliases file, including the program deliveries. -- Ted Cabeen http://www.pobox.com/~secabeen[EMAIL PROTECTED] Check Website or Keyserver for PGP/GPG Key BA0349D2 [EMAIL PROTECTED] "I have taken all knowledge to be my province." -F.

I don't think that will work. See the note in that file just a few
lines down:
Not all local delivery agent transports can support a recipient
limit greater than 1. Be sure to check the man page of the
specific transport before attempting this with anything but the
Postfix LMTP client.
Also, recent comments on the postfix list imply that even if local
supports multiple recipients, you'll see a significant performance hit
over using the lmtp transport directly.

All I can give you is the Postfix > configuration: > > mailbox_transport = lmtp:unix:/var/cyrus/socket/lmtp This is it. The postfix local transport always breaks up multiple recipient messages into single messages for delivery. If you want to use single message store, you can't use the local transport for your main delivery. mailbox_transport is part of the local transport. You'll need to change the local transport like this: local_transport = lmtp:unix:/var/spool/postfix/sockets/lmtp lmtp_destination_recipient_limit=100 Note that if you're not using the postfix local transport, you won't be able to directly use alias files or any other postfix feature that the local transport provides. You can still do aliases using the virtual aliases system. If you really need local transport features, you can use the virtual alias system to forward mail to a subdomain that uses the transport table to be directed to the real local transport. If you have any other questions about this sort of setup, let me know. I've got it working here, and it's great. -- Ted Cabeen http://www.pobox.com/~secabeen[EMAIL PROTECTED] Check Website or Keyserver for PGP/GPG Key BA0349D2 [EMAIL PROTECTED] "I have taken all knowledge to be my province." -F.
