Re: POP LOG

2001-04-16 Thread cedric


Hi,

   Thank you. I patched qmail, although I am still having troubles. I guess
I am doing something wrong...

I was running qmail-pop3d with something like:

exec env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:/usr/local/bin" \
tcpserver -H -R 0 pop3 \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup smashweb.com \
/usr/home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir 

So after applying the patch I had the log messages showing up on the
terminal, so I tried running qmail-pop3d with daemontools, and created a
service.

run:
#!/bin/sh
exec env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:/usr/local/bin" \
tcpserver -H -R 0 pop3 \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup smashweb.com \
/usr/home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir 

log/run:
#!/bin/sh
exec setuidgid qmaill multilog t /var/log/qmail/pop3d

The tcpserver and multilog processes started up right, the log dir was
created, but nothing gets logged, and the POP service deconnects clients
shortly after establishing the connection.

Any help greatly appreciated...


Thank you,

Cedric Veilleux,

Qmail internal domain routing?

2001-04-16 Thread Iain Morrison

Hi I hope you can point me in the right direction with this one.

I have setup qmail, qmail-scanner and courier imap on a test server, what we 
need to be able to do is only allow certain users access to external e-mail 
i.e. they can only send internally by default unless we let them do 
otherwise.

To further compound this I need to be able to setup 3 additional servers on 
our WAN for e-mail to our branch offices.

I was thinking that by assigning sub domains to the e.g. office1.domain.com 
etc... This would enable this to happen via DNS MX records. I would propose 
to have one system as the server that sends  receives all mail from the 
internet acting as a gateway for our internal network, scanning for viruses 
using qmail-scanner and mapping email for the few real e-mail address to 
their internal ones. But I am not sure how to limit only certain users to 
send mail outside whilst allowing unlimited e-mail internally i.e. across 
our WAN!

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Iain Morrison

Hi!
I've installed QMail on my Redhat 7.0 system.
PHP uses sendmail but I heard that Qmail has got a sendmail program, too. So
is it possible to send an email per "mail(...)" command of PHP with Qmail? I
copied the Qmail Sendmail to /usr/sbin/sendmail and set the path to QMail
Sendmail in the php.ini, but no EMail are sent and I don't get an error
message!

Thanks

Hi Christian
I'm using PHP ver. 4.03pl1 and latest qmail. I have to say I was pretty
impressed the way this duo worked 'out of the box'. PHP uses sendmail to
send emails - as far as I know 'qmail' sendmail behaves exactly like the
original. Just check if your paths are OK using ?php phpinfo() ?
command (look for sendmail).

well, from my experience php has some problems with qmail's sendmail, but I
was able to get past that by editing php.ini :

Sorry, it doesn't.

Sendmail parses addresses given on the command line in the same way it
parses mail headers ("To:"). The qmail sendmail clone doesn't do this.
   
Qmails sendmail clone doesn't know about a number of sendmail
commandline options. This usually isn't a problem, as almost nobody
knows this options.
   
And then there is the fact that the original sendmail doesn't
generate "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" addresses ...

It does support folders outside INBOX, if you setup your client correctly.

 When I attempt to send mail from localhost (via SMTP) or from 
 an allowed
 domain, I alway receive the message:
 553 sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts (#5.7.1)
 
 Of course, mail going to my rcpthosts works just fine...
 
 I am missing something in my settings, but I just can't find 
 what it is.
 
 I tried using tcpserver and that worked for allowing 
 selective relaying, but
 connections to any port from systems other than localhost 
 usually took 30-45
 seconds between getting the socket and getting the banner 
 from the server.
 There is no tcpserver mailing list that I could find and none 
 of the man pages
 or online documenation told me how to fix this problem. 
 Please don't suggest
 that I use tcpserver to resove this issue because it introduces larger
 problems.
 
 Thank you!

Re: an alias can never override a valid user's deliveries ???

2001-04-16 Thread Adam Andrzej Jaworski

P.S.

also please remember that users/assign method is not suitable
for us since - for many reasons (our auto-hosting software) -
we have to use system accounts

at: http://www.pgregg.com/projects/qmail/single-uid-howto.php

"If you want to use system accounts do not read this document - it may
lead you in the wrong direction."


so we need one simple thing: qmail should respect what is in global
aliases.cdb file used by fastforward
means if there is configured alias (or catch-all) in one domain
it should sent messages to user pointed to this alias - not to
real user
if this can't be done, then handling aliases in fastforward/qmail duo
are worse than in Zmailer... (brrr..)

P.S.



Keith,

Thanks, but I was moved to qmail from Zmailer with large aliases list,
(it worked on Zmailer without any problem) and this is the reason why
now I'm using this shortcut (aliases - aliases.cdb and fastforward)
instead of any "native" qmail technology so I need an advice on
how to do that with this set of tools...

 Thats where kmail looks for the mail box.

So configure kmail to look somewhere else (like $HOME/Maildir/) for its

I am trying to get email sent through IMP (www.horde.org) Webmail to be

Or for another reason.

From the manpage for qmail-getpw:

qmail-getpw considers an account in /etc/passwd  to  be  a user  if  (1)
the  account  has  a  nonzero  uid, (2) the account's home directory
exists (and is visible to qmail- getpw),  and  (3)  the  account  owns
its home directory.

I'd guess that /nonexistent doesn't exist.

Jairo,

No, your qmail is OK, unless you've enabled percenthacks (if you're not
sure, then you haven't, it's disabled by default). Percenthacks control
outbound relaying eg. user@host%relay_host

I think it's something to do with the way qmail first accepts the message,

Re: clustering

2001-04-16 Thread Medi Montaseri

I know of a feature in SGI's File System that launches an event when something
including data changes happen to a file. This might be a generic Journalling FS
feature. In which case installing a JFS might be one way. However I am not sure
of the current state of JFS on Linux. I know there has been many talks including
SGI contributions, but don't know of any current GA version. Maybe others can
educate me as well.

Re: 2 Qmail servers...

2001-04-16 Thread lenneis


NDSoftware :

 Hi,
 Can i run 2 Qmail server on the same server with different port ?
 If yes how ?
 Thanks

You have to distinguish between the various components of qmail, for
our purposes the programs like qmail-send. qmail-inject etc. that
maintain the queue and the part that listens for incoming mail on
(normally) port 25 which is qmail-smtpd. Both can be installed/run
twice by simply compiling two separate instances of qmail. You do this
by setting the pathname in the configuration file conf-qmail in the
source distribution to two separate values, say first to
"/var/qmail1", compile and install and then to "/var/qmail2", compile
and install. Everything else remains unchanged to a normal install
except that the two instances of qmail-smtpd need to listen to
different ports, for instance 25 and 26. If you have qmail-smtpd
controlled by tcpserver you just have to set the appropriate port
number on the command line. For inetd you have to have two entries in
/etc/inetd.conf for the two port numbers. Note that you also have to
get a connecting mailserver to attach to the nonstandard port, in my
example 26. That kind of setup will result in two parallel instances
of qmail running on the same machine that do not know anything about
each other.

If you simply want two instances of the smtp daemon running that dump
incoming mail into the same queue you only need one instance of qmail
compiled. Simply have qmail-smtpd (via tcpserver or inetd) listen on
two separate ports as described above.


NB: What are you trying to achieve with this? Maybe there is a more
straightforward method.

qmail-users doesn't preclude the use of system accounts, it just

accounts.

so we need one simple thing: qmail should respect what is in global
aliases.cdb file used by fastforward
means if there is configured alias (or catch-all) in one domain
it should sent messages to user pointed to this alias - not to

qmail-popup

2001-04-16 Thread Willy De la Court

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi,

A question about qmail-popup.
Here is a part of the qmail-popup manual.

qmail-popup expects descriptor 0 to read from the network
and descriptor 1 to write to the network.  It reads a
username and password from descriptor 0 in POP's USER-PASS
style or APOP style.  It invokes subprogram, with the same
descriptors 0 and 1; descriptor 2 writing to the network;
and descriptor 3 reading the username,

What use is it to give descriptor 2 as writing to the network 
i'v checked the source for qmail-pop3d and did not find 
anything that wrote to descriptor 2.

Are there any programs out there that do use it?
I know descriptor 2 is stderr so it could be that when an error msg
is 
send to stderr it is send to the network, but how can you do logging
in this case.
My patch for pop3d loggin disables this feature and send the error
msgs 
from qmail-pop3d to stdout(1) and stderr(2) so that the error is send
to the 
network and also to any logging program that is used.

Any comments on this.

Short answer:  yes.  Spammers are getting better at spoofing mail headers, as
misguided "spam protection" features in MTAs force them to.

Long answer:  can't analyze the situation properly when you munge header

munge the headers? that was a direct copy from the spamcop message! I

 hello, sorry for the off topic post. 
 real quick; had a server x.x.x.110 running sendmail.
 getting complaints of spam originating from that box.
 removed IP, still getting complaints.
 turned system off, still getting complaints.
 
 Can an IP be spoofed so totally in mail headers?
 headers:

 Again, sorry for the off topic post, and thanks.

Who controls 207.34.255.70 and is it really mailserv01.dartgc.com?

 SGI contributions, but don't know of any current GA version. Maybe others can
 educate me as well.

Or you could use FreeBSD 4.x with kqueue support. With an kernel queue
you can select() on any kernel event, including filesystems, files and
directories.

See the man page:

and see 'tail' for an programming example:

  I was wondering if anyone has used something like 'watch' or 'stat' (or

  Of course, I could settle with a crond rsync every minute or so, I guess!
  I do this at the moment, was just thinking about an alternative...

Make sure you copy stuff to tmpfiles and then move 'm (also when
generating files to go into /conf/mail). Especially over
NFS, doing it any different is guaranteed trouble.
   in several projects i used rsync[1] over ssh (openssh[2]) for distributing
   configuration between machines (push updates).
  
   rsync does a great job, supporting incremental/differential updates and
   moving the files in place after they have been transmitted and verified.

Re: an alias can never override a valid user's deliveries ???

2001-04-16 Thread Adam Andrzej Jaworski

Thanks Dave,

of course, I just realized that Keith talked about just qmail-users,
not in context "Single-UID based POP3 box By Paul Gregg"
- I'm sorry Keith -
anyway, it seems that I should start hacking around the qmail :-)
I will let you know, folks, if it will be a success, since
I'm not a programmer of any kind, but if this is the only way...
I will :-)

thanks for your support

 also please remember that users/assign method is not suitable
 for us since - for many reasons (our auto-hosting software) -
 we have to use system accounts
 
 qmail-users doesn't preclude the use of system accounts, it just
 provides a more general aliasing mechanism that preempts system
 accounts.
 
 so we need one simple thing: qmail should respect what is in global
 aliases.cdb file used by fastforward
 means if there is configured alias (or catch-all) in one domain
 it should sent messages to user pointed to this alias - not to
 real user
 if this can't be done, then handling aliases in fastforward/qmail duo
 are worse than in Zmailer... (brrr..)
 
 You could always modify the source--qmail-lspawn.c, most likely.

qmail-ezmlm: don't want welcome msg

2001-04-16 Thread thibaut colar


Hi, I recently switched our Communigate (which was carshing a lotand required 
exoensive update) to qmail + ezmlm-idx.
Qmail is working great so far.
Ezmlm is pretty good do, even if it's a little harder to get the kind of 
mailing list we want here.
We need announcement only list, this is one poster, and all subscriber can't 
send anything.
I achieve that ok, using ezmlm options.
However i have one more problem, we get email subscription through an 
external system (and have a lot to transfert), and don't want people to 
receive a submition confirmation/welcome message.

I found the option for removing the confirmation message, however i can't find
a way to get rid off the "welcome" message ?
How can I do that ??   (an don't tell me that I don't want to do that :-) )

I could do that through an external system (servlet) calling qmail-sub on the 
local system, but would be much hapyer to just have to toggle a "no welcome 
message" option in ezmlm.

Thank you.

ONLY virtual domains?

2001-04-16 Thread Sean Brown

Is it possible to ONLY use virtual domains?  I'd like to do this for 
oganizational sake more than anything else (I am using vmailmgr and like to 
have each domain controlled under on home dir).  For example, let's say I 
have a machine named mail.mydomain.com.  The MX record for mydomain.com 
points to that machine.  I also serve mail for anotherdomain.com and 
thirddomain.com.  What would happen if I listed mydomain.com in 
"virtualdomains" along with the other two?  Is it possible to leave "locals" 
and plusdomains" empty?  Does it matter? Would that give me the desired 
result?

Thanks,

Sean

Yes. I have an organization with about a dozen domains, all virtual,
using VMailMgr.
