Re: orbs and qmail
In the immortal words of Kevin Waterson ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): ORBS doesn't use the abuse.net tests to determine who is an open relay. To quote from the ORBS site Try Abuse.Net's new relay tester (requires registration). This is the only web-based tester which carries out the same set of tests which ORBS does. The text on the orbs.org website is, unfortunatly, misleading. Alan Brown, the person who is ORBS, has given more cogent explanations of how the tester works on various mailing lists and newsgroups. ORBS uses the abuse.net tester...with one VERY important difference: they actually check to see if the relayed message is received at the final destination address. The fact that qmail "accepts" the message will NOT result in being listed by ORBS: the message would actually have to be incorrectly relayed for that to happen. Hopefully, it should be self-evident why the abuse.net tester does not do this. (Hint: it would make a great mailbombing service.) There are many legitimate complaints that people have had about ORBS' behavior (such as "spite listings" and the fact that its tests generate spam to postmasters of correctly configured machines), but even ORBS' most vocal detractors (and I have been one of those) do not believe that a correctly configured qmail server will, on its own, generate an ORBS listing. -n --[EMAIL PROTECTED] And when love is gone, there's always justice.

SMTP Authorization
Hello everyone, Is there a way to setup qmail to use SMTP authorization? Right now I am limiting sending of mail to authorized users on the local segment(10.1.0.x). How would I go about forcing the user to sign in with a username/password in order to send smtp mail, rather than disallowing totally access from outside?

RE: SSL POP3
You can use stunnel to encapsulate qmail-pop3d withing SSL.
Find out more about it at http://www.stunnel.org I use it
with my own certificates generated by OpenSSL. I also use
it with the vpopmail software on top of qmail, so not
straight qmail, but it works either way. My script is
based on the vpopmail software but you should be able to
adopt it to just qmail, I think it would just need to have
the vchkpw program replaced with qmail-pop3d's password
checker.

Re: Local delivery in 2 SMTP hops
Hello there, Hi, I would like our mail to be firstly delivered to my organisation's DMZ (through a regular primary MX record), and then to make it route to our internal network (private IP addresses). I think a "smtproute" that overrides the DNS configuration might do it, but I'm not sure. Is this the proper way of doing it? Thanks, jp Yes, if you have your qmail on your DMZ, just point MX to the public address and you can 'route' your mail with smtproutes: rccn.net:x.x.x.x or .rccn.net:x.x.x.x for subdomains.
