problem creating virtual user accounts
Dear all, I have shifted sendmail to qmail and its working fine. Right now am having shell accounts to all users, i want it done with single common user shell account and many virtual user accounts, hope you are getting my problem. I tried creating an account called popusr, then i created directory /home/vishoo with 700 permission, with a .qmail file in it contaning /home/vishoo/Mailbox. I have updated /user/assign as =vishoo:popusr:uid:gid:/home/vishoo::: and also build a cdb file by running qmail-newu. After doing all these the mail i sent to vishoo is appearing in ~alias/Mailbox. How to make mails sent vishoo appear in /home/vishoo/Mailbox, should i need to say aslias some where, kindly help... asap. Thanx vishwanath __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

problem creating single user id
hello all, I have installed qmail and its running pretty fine. I have lots of users in my domain, Having one shell account per user account is not feasible, So how do i change to a single system account and still have thousands of user account. I do not use pop to retr mails, i have my own mechanism for that, all i want is when mail comes from other domains i want mails to be placed into user account even though he/she is not owning shell account or system account. And i just want to know how to tune Timeouts for sending mails to out side domains like the one sendmail has in sendmail.cf file and how do i forcibely push the mails out like "sendmail -q -v" in qmail.

I wouldn't want to estimate what the upper limit wil be like. I will say that I've handled something like 20 times that much mail in a day on a single Cyrix 166 with 96M ram, though. In fact, the upper limit might quite possibly end up depending on disk throughput, and you say nothing about your disk subsystem.

qmail-smtpd-auth
I'm considering patching qmail with the qmail-smtpd-auth patch. The reason is that the roaming user pop before smtp function in vpopmail doesn't work very well with my clients mail clients. In particular if Outlook has mail in the Outbox it will always send that first no matter what. It does not have the option to just check pop. I am rather nervous about patching rock solid qmail with a 3rd party patch. So I'm interested in what experience people have had with it and if it works well. Also if it works well with vpopmail which I also depend on. cheers, Bjorn -- Bjorn Nilsen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Manux Solutions Ltd Ph +64 3 343 2031 Fax +64 3 343 3064 Level 1, 39 Leslie Hills Drive, Riccarton PO Box 3074 Christchurch

I am about to take over the hosting of a website and want know if my 2 mail servers are going to be able to handle the volume. They are two P166's with 64M ram and plenty of disk space.

That header is important as it's used for fool-proof loop detection. If you remove it you risk looping email on your server. Consequently qmail has no standard provision for removing it, so you have to write a filter with perl/awk at the point of final delivery. Is the loop risk worth the assumed benefit? Btw. What benefit are you trying to get by removing them? Perhaps it can be achieved in some other way? Regards.

Hi all! Here's a program for everyone interested in: I had the problem that my mailserver had to relay mail from my masqueraded lan and at the same time not to allow spammers from outside to relay with qmail So I quickly wrote this program (and named it SelectiveRelay), which simply sets the environment vars if a client's IP matches a given subnet mask You can get it at http://russe.dhs.org/SelectiveRelay/selectiverelay.htm I hope it can help someone else too.

Re: Was my qmail hacked?
Hi Mark: Thanks for your reply. I see I have a lot of work to do. Unfortunately I'm not a web server technical guy, JUST a programmer. Maybe I shouldn't have assumed that qmail was where I should start looking but it seemed reasonably to a non-technical person that qmail was sending my PHP generated email to the outside world. > That your system or script has been compromised almost > certainly has nothing to do with qmail So my question should have been, "How can my system be tampered with to force qmail to send out 10,000 bogus emails?" Here is the PHP script. I have run similar scripts through the same web server with no problems. I echoed each email correctly to my browser screen and have a copy of the screen output from the offending occurance which shows a single email being generated for each of the 15 recipients as expected.

This email application doesn't use one, yet. The recipients were hard-coded for testing purposes. PHP script? How can PHP generate 10,000 emails from a simple 15 iteration FOR loop? Maybe the 'explode' function exploded? The PHP mail() function may have gone beserk but only on that single occasion, but if it did why would the 10,000 emails get sent in 3 or 4 batches spread over 6 hours? Well it's possible...

You've given no examples of the "identical emails" so we can't help by looking at those. You've given no relevant log entries showing the multiple delivery attempts to the addresses in question, so we can't help by looking at these. You haven't shown us the headers that "don't show anything unusual" so we can't confirm that your guess is correct. You've given no information about: o your operating system o your qmail install o what sort of access other people have to these scripts o what your php scripts look like o who has access to those scripts - can a web server get at them? Come to think of it, all you really said is "something went wrong, can you help?". Surely you don't think that's enough information, do you? If you do, I highly recommend that you pay someone to look into the problem for you. Furthermore, you've posted what appears to be a general security problem. That your system or script has been compromised almost certainly has nothing to do with qmail. What makes you think it's a problem with qmail rather than say, your OS, or your PHP scripts, or your database, or your users? Regards.

badmailfrom for qmail-qmtpd
I patched qmail-qmtpd to respect badmailfrom like qmail-smtpd does. Also fixed qmail-qmtpd.8 and qmail-control.9. The patch is on Johan's QMTP page, http://www.almqvist.net/johan/qmail/qmail-qmtpc.html Greetz, Peter.
QMTP running on sources.redhat.com
I installed QMTP on sources.redhat.com. sources.redhat.com, formerly sourceware.cygnus.com, is the host of a number of free software projects, including gcc, gdb, and the GNU binutils.

SMTP AUTH Patch
Hi, I've authored YAQSAP (Yet Another qmail SMTP AUTH Patch) which is a bit more DJBized than the others right now in that it uses DJB's libraries exclusively. Functionally, it's not all that different from Krzysztof Dabrowski's version except that it sets TCPREMOTEINFO to the authenticated username for logging in a Received header. Mr. Dabrowski has expressed an interest in merging my patch into his efforts, something which I find reasonable. Until then, if you happen to use it, please let me know how it works out.

Don't do that. You need to accept mail from null envelope senders, as those are bounce messages (bouncing those will irk many postmasters around the net).

Big misunderstanding. This list isn't designed to help newbies, it is for discussions regarding qmail. We are all helping newbies, _if_ they have done their homework and reag the documentation. As we aren't paid support stuff we can expect they've done that.
no return-path
Hi, 2 questions: - how can I deny all emails without Return-Path: like this: Return-Path: <> - is it a good idea ? The problem I have is to deny this kind of email.

I identified the sources to patch: qmail-smtpd.c, qmail-qmtpd.c, and qmail-remote.c . The patch for qmail-smtpd.c is trivial: a new smtpcommands[] entry, a new procedure smtp_proto who check the argument and execute "bin/qmail-qmtpd" (and print 421 if exec fails). I then tried to patch qmail-qmtpd adding only an option to send the 220 reply, but qmail-qmtpd does not implement some useful features that must be present on a public mail exchanger (i.e. no relay control ...).

It's no good idea to start a SMTP conversion and switch to QMTP later. MXPS (http://cr.yp.to/proto/mxps.txt) is the better solution.

Those mailing lists suck. Fortunately, this is the _qmail discussion list_, not a list to help newbies, so we don't fall in that category.

This is a problem. qmail-smtpd should wait on child qmail-queues, or those zombie qmail-queues should be cleaned up by init if qmail-smtpd exits. What operating system are you running? How are you running tcpserver/qmail-smtpd?
