qmail performance
Hi, I setup freebsd4.2 with qmail in my intranet, I used 192.168...IP address; and I have a DNS server with 202.96...IP address to provide name service to dialup users(outside), the FB and DNS are connected with a router. I hope dialup users could send and receive mail. When they dialed up, they could receive mail smoothly, but the sending was very slowly, although it still works. The dialup user automaticly got an 202.96...address. I have set up an MX record in my dns file and I point to FB with an 'A' record. I was not sure where is the problem, the DNS, qmail, or router? Someone said I must assign my FB an legal address, was that true? Please get me some explain and how to resolve the problem. Thanks. Sincerely zbeinet

QMTP/MXPS on cr.yp.to?
Because of having been offline for six weeks in December/January I totally missed the QMTP/MXPS discussions. After some reading in the archive I installed Johan Almqvists patch to enable QMTP through MXPS (I had running qmtpd for a long while). I just checked the logs and found that not a single message arrived through QMTP. Then I looked at a.mx.list.cr.yp.to if there is a qmtp port. It seems that Dan doesn't run QMTP - even for receiving. I think Dan's lists would be a good real life test for QMTP/MXPS - so does anybody know why Dan isn't running QMTP? Regards, Frank

Unable_to_chdir_to_maildir._(#4.2.1)
Hello I am using qmail-1.03+patches-18 on redhat 7.0 I have a problem with my local configuration. My local user like root can't reseive mail I have this errors
Re: redirecting Mail ??
> ok - Yes - how Put a the following line into /var/qmail/alias/.qmail-postmaster: # Nothing else, only the hash sign. > and NO - why not ?? Because every domain that receives mail hast to have a "postmaster" account/alias where someone may be contacted. To cite RFC822: This standard specifies a single, reserved mailbox address (local-part) which is to be valid at each site. Mail sent to that address is to be routed to a person responsible for the site's mail system or to a person with responsibility for general site operation. The name of the reserved local-part address is: Postmaster so that "Postmaster@domain" is required to be valid. Note: This reserved local-part must be matched without sensi- tivity to alphabetic case, so that "POSTMASTER", "postmas- ter", and even "poStmASteR" is to be accepted. Regards, Frank

Re: Unable_to_chdir_to_maildir._(#4.2.1)
> My local user like root can't reseive mail I have this errors Root never receives mail on qmail systems. You have to define an alias for root that delivers to an unpriviledged account. The error means either that no maildir exists at the users home directory or that it's permissions prevent qmail-local to chdir into it. See "man maildirmake" for creation of maildirs. You might want to make a maildir in your new user template (/etc/skel on many systems). Regards, Frank

No, we don't know.

scripting problems with qmail-inject and qmail-local

Carbon Copy question
I figured out a strange behavior with my little server, specially that with an 64K channel. A user need to send a domn XLS file to 10 other people in the other factory unit, so he puts 9 of them in the cc line and one in the to line. My question is: qmail is sending that message 10 times to the same host. I can see 10 qmail-remote instances, running together, delivery the same message 10 times. It's a 3MB message x 10 = 30 MB to pass in a 64K channel. It's simply shutdown any other connections due to traffic. Why my mail server don't sent the message only once, to ten users in the same domains at one time ? I use qmail-1.03 + vpopmail in a Linux small server. Nilo Menezes
Re: Carbon Copy question
This behaviour is intentional. > A user need to send a domn XLS file to 10 other people in the other factory unit, One solution is to create an expansion alias at the other end of the line and address to that alias. Another one is to use serialmail with some sort of duplicates recognition (Russell Nelson has a script that does that for one user). The simplest solution in your case may be to use Postfix instead. Qmail is not perfect in every infrastructure. Regards, Frank

You can use stunnel. The stunnel program is designed to work as SSL encryption wrapper between remote client and local (inetd-startable) or remote server. The concept is that having non-SSL aware dae- mons running on your system you can easily setup them to communicate with clients over secure SSL channel. stunnel can be used to add SSL functionality to commonly used inetd daemons like POP-2, POP-3 and IMAP servers without any changes in the programs' code.

virtualdomains and MX...
Hi all! I want to set up my mail server to handle another domains, now is working fine handling one domain, lets say for example: my linux RH6.2 box its real IP is 100.100.100.100 and it has 3 more vitual ips added: 100.100.100.101 100.100.100.102 100.100.100.103 mail.domain1.com its IP 100.100.100.100 is with an MX 100.100.100.100 now I have domain2.com & domain3.net, I want to handle mails for both, What should I do? domain2.com with an IP address of 100.100.100.102 and mail.domain2.com its MX is 100.100.100.100 is this correct? and domain3.net with an IP address of 100.100.100.103 and mail.domain3.net its MX is 100.100.100.100 Then in rcpthost I should add mail.domain2.com or domain2.com mail.domain3.net or domain3.net and in virtualdomains I put www.domain2.com:domain2 www.domain3.net:domain3 I this right? Is this the correct way to set it up? I want to have pop users without system accounts, I followed the instructions step by step but is not working yet. I have installed Qmail following "life with Qmail", so in order to be read virtualdomains and rcpthosts I should just do a kill -HUP pid of qmail-send or also kill -HUP pid of supervise qmail-send??? also when I do ping to mail.domain2.com or mail.domain3.net I have no answer, what does it means?

No, this is only the fallback of the qmtp-patch. The actual patch implementation checks if QMTP is (better: could be) available at the destination. This is done through mailroutes or through MX preferences (see Dan's MXPS documentation at http://cr.yp.to/proto/mxps.txt). If that fails (f.e. because of firewalled port) the above mentioned fallback is activated. Regards, Frank

It is a concept to prepend a given destination address with a free choosen string. This string is used for further delivery through any other qmail mechanism (users/assign, alias, real user). The flexibility results from this "prepending" and the address extension mechanism in qmail. Regards, Frank

Yes, if you use my patch (or Russell's patch with Ian's patch on top of it). Note that QMTP only will be attempted if the remote domain announces QMTP capability by MXPS or in control/mailroutes Your firewall will obviously have to let outgoing connections to port 209 (or whatever you define in control/mailroutes) through.

Stuck with maildirsmtp
Hi everybody, I'd be pleased if one of you could point me in the right direction, since I am stuck with maildirsmtp for a while now. I've got a small LAN with about 15 clients and a mail server with a PPP-uplink. From today on I deliver the messages via maildirsmtp with an alias-ppp user, as described in Mr. van der Woudes fine documentation. This works fine except that I am not able to send mail from the server to my 2 other local mailinglist-servers on the LAN. Any mail to localnet ends up in the ppp-Maildir. >From the man-page of qmail-send I took that defining both hosts as locals on the primary MX does not make sense. Do I have to set up virtual domains for each of them? A simple RTFM that leads me to the solution would be really appreciated! :) Yours, Mario -- .~.Mario Thaten ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) /V\ /( )\ "There are just 2 rules in life: ^ ^ Always be yourself, but never mind to change."

With > paranoid off the connections hover around 65. Paranoid connections take some extra time to do some checks. Depending on the host connecting, these checks can take upto several minutes. This explains why you see a large increase in number of inbound connections. > Anyone care to share what they see.

OT: How to un-break sendmail, well one part of it? :-)
In RedHat's infinite wisdom, they distributed a version of linuxconf with version 6.2 that writes sendmail.cf files in such a way that they will illegally reject mail with an empty Return-Path. Would anyone happen to know what needs to be fixed in sendmail.cf to make it stop doing that? I have been getting a lot of double bounces since my qmail server sends the bounce without the Return-Path. I'd like to know what I need to tell the admins of these nasty sendmail servers to do so they can start receiving their bounces instead of me. Thanks, Dave

First is it possible to have qmail-smtp answer to both >ssl and non-ssl requests? Yes. This patch implements the STARTTLS extension to SMTP. A client makes a normal, unsecured connection to port 25, then issues the STARTTLS command to begin encrypting the stream. This is different from simply wrapping qmail-smtpd via stunnel and listening on another port, which is another approach. There's also the SMTP AUTH extension, implemented in a couple patches for qmail, that allows the client to authenticate with the server, but doesn't encrypt the traffic. This is useful for secure relay control. Which method you should use depends upon what you're trying to achieve *and* what your users/clients are using to read/send their mail. >Second, where can I find some good documentation on implementing this >patch?

Mail hub for relay and outgoing only - no local
Having been charged with the task of creating a new mail server for our local Sun boxes, I looked at sendmail again, realized what a pain it would be and turned to qmail. Setup of qmail has been relatively easy considering until last week I hadn't even heard about it before. I've been through various docs (LWQ, FAQTS, online man pages) and been searching through the archives, but I don't think I've quite gotten a handle on how to do what I want to do with qmail. For testing I have set-up a qmail server and a mini-qmail installation on two machines. The qmail server will act as a mail hub for all internal Sun boxes to send outgoing mail through, as well as a redirection server for incoming mail to the domain pern.com (names changed to protect the helpless). I have manage to configure the mini-qmail server to send out through the mail hub and have messages appear as [EMAIL PROTECTED] even though the internal network has a different domain name. Very cool. I have also managed to send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and have it redirected to my real email address on our Notes server, appearing as from the original sender and to the intended recipient. This is good as well as we have many addresses for support purposes, such as [EMAIL PROTECTED], that presently get forwarded to real users via sendmail aliases. No local deliveries are to be performed. The qmail server is only to redirect mail. Any local mail sent from a Sun box on our network should be redirected to a real email address on our Notes server. Our Sun user accounts vary, but our Notes addresses take the form of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mail coming in to the qmail server must also be redirected, regardless if an account exists on the qmail server. Some of the incoming mail is to groups, some to individual users. My questions are: 1) How do I prevent qmail from trying to deliver locally on the qmail server? I read the man page for qmail-users, but I'm not sure if that is what I need to use. 2) How can I correctly set-up the group redirects in a way that will eliminate (if not reduce) duplication due to an error sending to one address in the group? 3) What would be a good way of redirecting local names to the appropriate email address for the local messages from our Sun servers (ie: bobs -> [EMAIL PROTECTED]): individual /var/qmail/alias files, or some other method? I would prefer to avoid using fastforward if possible, but am willing to change my mind if it would make the administration easier. The user list is relatively small (about 30) and doesn't change all that often. The current sendmail alias list is about 30 lines long, but could probably be pared down as I don't believe it has been updated in a while. A quick diagram of the flow would be something like this: external mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --> qmail server --> support-group [[EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], ...] external mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --> qmail server --> [EMAIL PROTECTED] local internal mail to brubble --> qmail server --> [EMAIL PROTECTED] A user may or may not appear in a group in addition to having their own mail redirected. That is: external mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --> qmail server --> [EMAIL PROTECTED] external mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --> qmail server --> info-group [[EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] ...] Suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

qmail-inject refuses to work if it's parent process is qmail-local?
I'm trying to write a script that sends out a reply email when someone send
email to a certain address in my domain. The idea is someone sends mail to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and a generic message is sent back to them. So far I
can't get anything sent anywhere if I let qmail-local run the program.
Here's the details:
/home/radius/.qmail-info contains:
|/home/radius/replyscript.pl
The replyscript.pl contains:
#!/usr/bin/perl
system ("cat message > /tmp/message");
system ("/var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject < message");
exit 0;
And /home/radius/message contains:
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: Did it work?
Test
If I send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] the script will copy the message to the
/tmp directory. This tells me that the script does in fact execute and the
file /home/radius/message is in the present working directory. However when
the script attempts to send the message to qmail-inject, the following error
is logged:
qmail-inject:_fatal:_read_error/did_0+0+1/
If I log into the Linux box and run the script directly it works fine. It
seems as if qmail-inject refuses to work if it's parent process is
qmail-local. Is this true? Know of any workarounds?

Domain Gateway/Relay Was: Newbie Help
David and all: Thanks for replying to my call for help! I do have qmail working on a per user basis just fine. Here's my network: internetqmail | | | | --- | | firewall | | 192.168.x.x -- | Exchange Server What I would like to do is have the qmail server out on the internet hold all email for my domain for the Exchange server to pick up. I don't think the qmail server can forward directly to the Exchange server through the server because its IP address is private and nonroutable. I prefer - for security reasons - to have the Exchange server initiate opening a connection to the qmail server. Maybe I'm way off base on this, comments are most welcome. What I don't know how to do is config qmail to hold all the email for my domain users and let the Exchange server make a mail run to pick it all up. Configuring Exchange is easy enough - it's already working with my ISP... Any help is greatly appreciated!! Thanks again! .mark >
queue is not going down...

LWQ Init Script/qmail-pop3d
List, I recently decided to move my qmail-pop3d process out of inetd on my RedHat 6.2 machine and under the control of daemontools like the rest of my qmail processes. I installed semi-following LWQ, and making other changes as I went. Daemontools and ucspi-tcp were installed from RPMs (if that matters). I stopped qmail, created a directory under /var/qmail/ for qmail-pop3d, and put in the necessary scripts (details at end of message). I am using the LWQ SysVinit scripts, and added appropriate lines for qmail-pop3d under the pause, cont, and restart sections. Since the start/stop section just uses /var/qmail/supervise/* and /var/qmail/supervise/*/log , it didn't look like I'd need to add qmail-pop3d there. The problem is such: All features of the scripts work fine except for start/stop. If I issue 'qmail stop', it kills off everything except qmail-pop3d.

Thank you Charles. I'll be sure to look at that.

What if for some strange reason someone starts spamming from your mail server. I would like to be able to send an email to postmaster to inform of the criminal act. If I don't hear back from postmaster in 24 hours I will submit your domain to one of the open relay lists thus blocking your IP from sending mail to those who participate. Is that incentive enough?

ipchains and nslookup for qmail
Hi, I have a questions about "ipchains" and "nslookup for qmail" to ask. Currently, I am using a DENY EVERYTHING by DEFAULT ipchains firewall. Once the firewall is started, I am not able to do a "nslookup" at my machine. So, what port do I have to open in order to perform a "nslookup" job. Also, qmail won't be able to resolve a remote site name if nslookup is not allowed. Is this correct ?? Below is my firewall script for DNS. once I used the below firewall script, then I am not able to do a "nslookup". Please tell me what port do I have to open for nslookup. # Local client to server DNS transaction ipchains -A output -i $external_interface -p udp \ -s $ipaddr $unprivports \ -d $anywhere 53 -j ACCEPT ipchains -A input -i $external_interface -p udp \ -s $anywhere 53 \ -d $ipaddr $unprivports -j ACCEPT ipchains -A output -i $external_interface -p tcp \ -s $ipaddr $unprivports \ -d $anywhere 53 -j ACCEPT ipchains -A input -i $external_interface -p tcp ! -y \ -s $anywhere 53 \ -d $ipaddr $unprivports -j ACCEPT ipchains -A output -i $external_interface -p udp \ -s $ipaddr 53 \ -d $anywhere 53 -j ACCEPT ipchains -A input -i $external_interface -p udp \ -s $anywhere 53 \ -d $ipaddr 53 -j ACCEPT # --- # Remote Client Lookup ipchains -A input -i $external_interface -p udp \ -s $anywhere $unprivports \ -d $ipaddr 53 -j ACCEPT ipchains -A output -i $external_interface -p udp \ -s $ipaddr 53 \ -d $anywhere $unprivports -j ACCEPT ipchains -A input -i $external_interface -p tcp \ -s $anywhere $unprivports \ -d $ipaddr 53 -j ACCEPT ipchains -A output -i $external_interface -p tcp ! -y \ -s $ipaddr 53 \ -d $anywhere $unprivports -j ACCEPT # Server to server DNS transaction ipchains -A input -i $external_interface -p udp \ -s $anywhere 53 \ -d $ipaddr 53 -j ACCEPT ipchains -A output -i $external_interface -p udp \ -s $ipaddr 53 \ -d $anywhere 53 -j ACCEPT # Resolv.conf lookup ipchains -A output -i $external_interface -p udp \ -s $ipaddr $unprivports \ -d $anywhere 53 -j ACCEPT ipchains -A input -i $external_interface -p udp \ -s $anywhere 53 \ -d $ipaddr $unprivports -j ACCEPT ipchains -A output -i $external_interface -p tcp \ -s $ipaddr $unprivports \ -d $anywhere 53 -j ACCEPT ipchains -A input -i $external_interface -p tcp ! -y \ -s $anywhere $53 \ -d $ipaddr $unprivports -j ACCEPT Thank you so much, Mark
