qmail as a outgoing mail server
I have a private network who use a server called myhost.mydomain, connected to internet to a ppp line. The server is use as mail server, proxy, gateway and so on for the private netowork... The problem is that the MUA that runs on the windows machines from the private network can't use my server as outgoing mail server. They receive an error massege that the domian is not in the list of allowed rcpt hosts. I put the hosts from the private network in /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts, but the error is the same... My /etc/hosts look somethig like this: 192.168.80.2 winmachine1.myhosts.mydomain winmachine1 192.168.80.3 winmachine2.myhosts.mydomain winmachine2 and so on... In /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts i put: myhosts.mydomain winmachine1.myhosts.mydomain winmachine2.myhosts.mydomain What I have to do that the MUA from winmachines to work?

If you're making the change to qmail, you're going to want to use tcpserver. inetd is no longer officially supported, and I think you'll find that most people on this list won't answer questions about it because they don't use it (at least not for their qmail stuff). It's not at all difficult to set up, and you can run tcpserver and inetd at the same time, as long as you don't try to listen to the same ports with both. Just be sure that for every service you use tcpserver for, you comment out the inetd lines for that service. Chris
problems with qmail-pop3d
I have a few problems with qmail-pop3d that I'm not sure how to solve. I followed the instructions to the letter, and when I start it with /etc/rc.d/init.d/qmail-pop3d.init it starts but says "hard error" before it starts. Any idea what this might be? Also, I switched to using maildir and followed those instructions properly, but when I use fetchmail to attempt to retrieve those messages I get a "user doesn't have a $HOME/Maildir" error and no mail is retrieved. There is a ~/Maildir directory, I ran maildirmake and added "./Maildir/" to the ~/.qmail file. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

It can't be a members-only list then? I'd prefer not to do that, but if I don't have a choice then I don't have a choice. Or perhaps there's an accept/deny rule for unsubscribed people attempting to send mail to the list (I don't want other robots/spammers able to send mail to the list, only legitimate subscribers), so I can deny all except for one specific email address (the robot) and allow all members... is something like this possible? There have been a number of suggestions, but I think the easiest and most correct way of doing this is to subscribe the robot's e-mail address to dir/allow. Look at the -u option in the ezmlm-make man page. Ok, I was thinking of that. The problem is I want messages from the mailing list sent to the robot, all except for the messages the robot itself sends. Basically what I'm doing is turning a message area on my BBS into a mailing list and don't want the messages from the BBS going *back* to the message area on the BBS because ezmlm sends the poster his message back. I want to avoid duplicate messages in the BBS message area. This may require ezmlm-idx; I don't know because I don't have the vanilla ezmlm installed. Yeah, I installed ezmlm-idx so that isn't the problem.

I think you need to add those IP addresses to /etc/tcprules.d/qmail-smtpd or /etc/tcprules.d/rblsmtpd (depending on which you use). There should be a RELAY rule in there which (by default) only allows the machine's IP and the localhost IP to use it to relay mail for outgoing mail. If you edit that and use tcprules to make a new cdb file it should work (I believe). You might have to restart qmail-smtpd to get the changes recognized, I'm not sure. This is a guess, I'm new to qmail too. =) -- [EMAIL PROTECTED], OpenPGP key available on www.keyserver.net Freezer Burn BBS: telnet://bbs.freezer-burn.org .

Ok, I was thinking of that. The problem is I want messages from the mailing list sent to the robot, all except for the messages the robot itself sends. Why not just have the robot program look at the "from:" line in the message, and if it's from itself, it discards it? That takes care of the looping... steve

problems with qmail-pop3d (fwd)
Not sure if anyone got this, but as an update I re-created the Maildir's for all of my users. I think I had originally done "maildirmake ~/Maildir" which might have been the problem... did it this time as "maildirmake $HOME/Maildir" and now when I connect with fetchmail it tells me it is unable to scan $HOME/Maildir as opposed to the other error message. One step in the right direction, I think, but now I'm really stumped. Why would it be unable to scan? I also edited /var/qmail/rc and changed ./Mailbox to ./Maildir/ but that doesn't seem to have made a difference as far as the POP3 daemon is concerned.
