RE: problems with tcpserver
Hi! I am also having troble with tcpserver under Mandrake 7.1, but with kernel 2.4.2. The mail system works perfectly on the machine, but the system has significant latencies when I'm trying to establsh an SMTP commection with qmail-pop3d. I have to try serveral times until the connection is made. I am getting a timeout error. The PC's are in a local LAN. I've had kernel 2.2.15 with the same problem on another installation of Mandrake.

A strange behavior.
Hello. I am thinking about using qmail 1.03, instead of sendmail, but still have a problem. It seems so wierd that I cannot solve it by myself. Suppose that there are 2 SMTP servers for a domain 'my.domain'. One is smtp1.my.domain and the other is smtp2.my.domain. Both servers are confirmed that they accept the messages from other domain(e.g., to [EMAIL PROTECTED]). But when you send a message from smtp1 to [EMAIL PROTECTED], smtp2 tries to send it to [EMAIL PROTECTED], ^^ then of course it fails. What is the cause of this problem? How can I solve this problem? I appreciate any advice. Thanks. - Koh Sato [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Yes; more precisely, remove all hosts for which your server does not handle mail. For example, you may want to send mail to hotmail.com; this does NOT mean that hotmail.com should be in rcpthosts.

Estimating needed Inodes
Were in the process of planning a migration of email from a sendmail server using pop3 type of service, to qmail using IMAP (courier). We have about 300 users. Since the email isnt going to get downloaded off the server, and were planning on Maildir format (required if were using Courier) that means each delivered email uses 1 inode. I realize this is a little off-topic for this list, but there must be email administrators that have had to deal with this. Were running Linux (Red Hat 6.2, kernel 2.2.14) with ext2 file system. How many inodes would be sufficient for that kind of setup? Are there any statistics out there on how many email messages an average user will keep in his/her mailbox? Whats the largest number of inodes you can configure for on a partition? (How do you? man mkfs isnt very helpful.) === Al __ Do You Yahoo!? Get email at your own domain with Yahoo!

You are hitting two problems here: 1) is the max number of parallel connections the remote will accept 2) you are getting only bounces back that the sending qmail has to process which will eventually slow down the remote delivery Better would be to configure the receiving mail server as a data sink that will deliver (for that test!!!) messages to non existing user to /dev/null I have a mailing list run by ezmlm (so nearly no bounces at all) with about 93000 subscribers on a dedicated machine. Earlier this week I did some graphs on the delivery behaviour. It's a vanilla qmail patched with the big-concurrency mod to get a concurrencyremote of 500. In case you're interested the graphs are at http://www.lamer.de/maex/creative/software/qmail/deliveries/ Maybe I'll configure qmail to a concurrencyremote of 250 and see how the behaviour changes later this week ... \Maex -- SpaceNet AG| Joseph-Dollinger-Bogen 14 | Fon: +49 (89) 32356-0 Research & Development | D-80807 Muenchen| Fax: +49 (89) 32356-299 Stress is when you wake up screaming and you realize you haven't fallen asleep yet.

OK I am really stuck! Yes I have read lifewithqmail over and over and over. I have read through the docs and FAQs, to make sure I did everything right. I read TEST.deliver no problems here qmail send fine. However I can't seem to receive anything.

I also have installed checkpasswd and that seems to work OK with that. I also set up the Maildir (with 3 sub dirs).

I'm positive this has to be something simple, I just cann't see it. I've researched the archives and documentation to no avail. tcpserver accepts the connection and qmail places the mail in /opt/qmail/queue/todo (yes I compiled qmail to use opt in place of var) and then it just sits there.

Of course qmail is dependent on the smtp connections. qmail must obviously attemt to deliver the message before it can bounce it, right? Try setting control/concurrencyremote to something around 100 and it'll be faster - provided the "other machine" will accept that many connections.

I just ran a test on our machine here and the results are not good.

Mailing from script
I just wrote a Perl script that gets an e-mail address from the command line and then subs it in as the To: field in mailwrapper output. While the program worked just fine when I manually entered the To: field, it appends @www.schnarff.com to that field when I get it from the command line. The relevant part of the script appears below: $recip = $ARGV[0]; $recip =~ s/\@/\\\@/g; print $recip; open (MAIL, "|/usr/sbin/sendmail -t"); print MAIL "To: $recip\n"; print MAIL "From: quoteoftheday\@schnarff.com\n"; print MAIL "Reply-to: alex\@schnarff.com\n"; print MAIL "Subject: Quote for $date\n"; print MAIL $sdata[rand(@sdata)]; close MAIL; $recip, when I printed it to the screen for testing purposes, came out as user\@domain.com, which is exactly what I need. Any idea why the mailwrapper would append my local domain like that? Thanks, Alex Le Fevre

Please help. or Otherwise please tell me how i can utilise Java mail APIs to utilise this functionality Thanks Mathew

No. This will allow anyone to connect to your SMTP server. Whether they can send mail or not depends on the contents of rcpthosts, the envelope recipient of the message they try to send, and whether the RELAYCLIENT environment variable is set. A default rule of :deny almost _never_ makes sense for the .cdb file controlling access to your SMTP daemon.

It was definitely changed since LWQ was written. At least I was right about something : ( However, the words "Finally, start svscan in /service. Other packages rely on svscan to start new services and to restart services upon reboot." Were pretty explicit and came in handy when installing djbdns at least.

Anyway, would this be the prefered way to supervise qmail these days? If so/not, then why? Oh well, I did learn something and I also managed to get pop3d supervised without pestering the list. For the record I have qmail + all the handy stuff at inter7.com running on 4 OpenBSD2.8 machines now and I used my seriously bastardized LWQ style script which I named /usr/local/sbin/qmail after I included a /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-pop3d/run file and rblsmtp to qmail-smtpd.

No need. LWQ doesn't require you to follow the new installation

It *wasn't* because you weren't running svscan on /service, because
LWQ doesn't use /service.

Because LWQ *DOESN'T* *USE* */service*.

Of course, scanning /service won't interfere with LWQ--it just won't
help one bit.

The end of 2.8 actually starts qmail. But you won't be mislead if you
follow the direction to read the entire section before doing an
installation.

DNS for a simple LAN?
Hello,I wonder if in my case could I get enhancements with qmail, installing a DNS (also just a cached DNS) into my linux server. Please consider that: I'have not a registered FQDN,my IP on the INTERNET is dynamic, I have only few machines into my LAN with their private hostnames and relative IPs. I red that if I wanna use RELAYCLIENT="" I have to start my qmail by tcpserver,actually I have csh -cf '/var/qmail/rc &' into my rc.local, upgrading to tcpserver should I just comment out the above line and put the tcpserver line?

Ok, I am not that good that I have a solution by hand, but I could try to help you. Can you send attachments of smaller size, maybe 100k or so? And did you try a really large text mail ( ~ 1 meg) without any attachment? Just curiuos :-)) You mentioned a 56k modem line, could it be that this connection isn't working correctly? It could be a hardware problem that will show much more likely on large data sent then on many small ones. The only other cause I see may be a firewall within your installation that has a timeout too short for that large packets.

The top level means in the domains level or in the vpopmail folder? And what means "include the vpopomail invocations found in .qmail-default".

If a spammer thinks that your domain may be a free email Yeah, I've had that happen a couple of times to one of my domains. Not sure how they decided that they should try 15,000 addresses within that domain. I finally had to add the whole domain to badrcptto, because the messages were being sent from a few hundred relays. Probably time to enable rss on the main SMTP servers, instead of splitting messages off when I deliver them. RSS in particular has never blocked a legit message so far. I'm just waiting for it to happen again on a message I can track down -- the last one only included some generic 800 number. You see, Colorado has this law that apparently allows me to get $20 to $40 per copy of the message...
