The bare linefeed problem with PGP
Hello qmail users and admins, my problem is the following: When I compose a message and encrypt it with PGP (or just sign it with PGP), then attempts to send the mail end in the following error message: 451 See http://pobox.com/~djb/docs/smtplf.html This URL obviously has moved (to where?), but I found a discussion about this error message. Bare linefeeds seem to be the problem, that causes the message, but I do not find a context to PGP. Ok, when I do not encrypt or sign with PGP, sending works fine. I think, since PGP produces a binary file (or can at least do so), there occur bytes in the message that shouldn't. But I can tell PGP (with the -a flag) to encrypt the text in ASCII format, so it is human readable, but it doesn't solve the problem. Next I can tell PGP (with the -t flag) to alter line endings for UNIX. Didn't work either. Additional Info about my environment: I use postilion as MUA which handles PGP, and with sendmail (a friend tried it successfully) no such errors occur. Has anyone ideas, what I possibly forgot to tell qmail or pgp or whatever? Thanks in advance. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.comnets.uni-bremen.de/~elm

Re: The bare linefeed problem with PGP
Top of the morning to all of you qmail-ers,
Well, if I understand the problem correctly (your PGP program is creating
a message with bare LFs), then you should be able to solve the problem by
piping the output of your PGP signing/encryption process to /usr/bin/addcr
before it's sent to your SMTP server. (addcr is included in the ucspi
package). For kicks, try running the PGP program by itself on a text
file, and do an "od -c ${FILENAME}" to see whether or not you have the
required \r\n. If not, you can add them with addcr.

I agree with your sentiment completely. I don't want *my* ISP making *any* of these decisions without my knowing, and I'd certainly want a way of creating my own "tunnels" through any of their blocks. But the example is poor, IMHO. I have a pobox account for non-work related mail, and I had their spam filtering on for a while before finally turning it off. It tagged things as spam that weren't. It missed tagging most real spam. In short, it wasn't any help at all. What I want them to offer, what I'd pay extra for, and what they don't offer (at least the last time I checked), is RBL+DUL+RSS on my incoming mail stream with the ability to tunnel selected IP's through, and the ability to find out what was blocked. (Which is exactly what I do use on my work machines with rblsmtpd.) DUL by itself would catch most of the spam I get through my pobox account. So since I can't RBL+DUL+RSS the mail passing through pobox in any convenient way, I pass it through some maildrop filters on one of my home machines and access it from there. In the end, only I know what is spam and what is not, so I prefer dealing with the problem at the end of the chain which I control rather than at the points in between over which I have little or no control. Unfortunately, that means I have to accept the spam in the before programmatically discarding it. Len. -- Paul J. Schinder NASA Goddard Space Flight Center Code 693 [EMAIL PROTECTED]

More about later delivery
Hi, I'm using tcpserver and supervise to run qmail. I'm using Nick Leverton's patch to qmail-send to suspend remotedelivery. So I write a file called holdremote with value 1 then I HUP qmail-send, causing the remote queue to be held, so I can stop qmail-send immediately (svc -dx ...). I don't need to wait from pending queue to be sent, because if I stop qmail-send process with pending delivery, the supervised qmail-send process stays in "want down" status until the pending message is totally delivered. If I want to cancel a message: 1) echo 1 /var/qmail/control/holdremote 2) HUP on qmail-send process 3) qmail-read to check the queue and see the message number (nnn) 4) qmHandle -dnnn to delete the message (I've patched qmHandle to stop and start qmail-send with supervise) 5) echo 0 /var/qmail/control/holdremote 6) HUP on qmail-send process The message is canceled and the remote delivery is normal, but I would like to resend it during the night, how can I do this?

"David L. Nicol" spake unto me and said: what keeps spammers from faking envelope-from and using include-in-bounce features to relay spam content? Nothing; see http://cr.yp.to/docs/mailabuse.html for this and other more heinous possibilities. Is it possible that a subject of "failure notice" will some day not be sufficient to prevent this possibility? It's not clear what you mean. If you destroy bounces, you prevent that attack; however you also prevent people from seeing legitimate bounces. In general, it is impossible to make bounces unforgeable. Len.
