qmail bounce patch help
Hi everyone, I have applied qmail bounce patch (www.jedi.claranet.fr/qmail-bounce.patch), and it works ( as you can see line "--- End of message stripped"), but my problem is that still i get full mail including attachment, when mail bounce. The problem is that it works to header part and not to message part(i guess) as you can see below. Moreover --- End of message stripped. --- Below this line is a copy of the message. why " -- Below this line is a copy of the message." is after "-- End of message stripped." ? for testing, the content of bouncemaxbytes file is 30 Am i doing some thing wrong?

First, the German sense of humor is different (or, as the English jokingly suggest, non-existent). Second, swearing is one of the most difficult aspects of any language; getting it right requires years of immersion in the culture. Add to that the fact that each and every English-speaking country has different mores and you'll realize that, as a non-native speaker, you should refrain from swearing. There are exceptions, but neither Robin nor Felix are amongst them. They'd be far more effective if they would vituperate a tad less.

I don't know what version of qpopper you're using, but I added some code
in v2.53 to do this. Userids will show up in syslog. The right place
is in pop_dropcopy.c:
...
810 /* Now we run as the user. */
811 (void) setgid((GID_T)pwp->pw_gid);
812 (void) setgroups(1,(GID_T *)&pwp->pw_gid);
/* Set the supplementary groups list */
813 (void) setuid((UID_T)pwp->pw_uid);
814
815 /* Added by KEV: log all usernames. */
816 pop_log (p, POP_PRIORITY, "uname=%s, uid=%d, gid=%d",
817 pwp->pw_name, getuid (), getgid ());
...
You might also want to check for passwords that must be changed, in
pop_pass.c:
188 /* Check if password is valid */
189 if (pwd->sp_max > 0 && today > pwd->sp_lstchg+pwd->sp_max)
{
190 sleep(SLEEP_SECONDS);
191 return (pop_msg(p,POP_FAILURE,"\"%s\": account
expired.",p->user));
192 }
193
194 /* Added: check if password must be changed */
195 if (pwd->sp_lstchg == 0) {
196 sleep(SLEEP_SECONDS);
197 return (pop_msg(p,POP_FAILURE,"\"%s\": change your password.",
198p->user));
199 }
200
201 pw->pw_passwd = (char *)strdup(pwd->sp_pwdp);
202 endspent();

qmail-send to use rcpthosts
Has anyone modified qmail-send to use rcpthosts and morercpthosts.cdb? The reason I want it is I want a virtualdomains "catch all" that uses a database handled by fastforward. But after the message is handled by qmail-smtpd, it is only handled by qmail-queue and qmail-send. The address is re-written to an offsite address and handled by qmail-send which then sees the catchall in virtualdomains and tries to deliver it locally. If someone has another solution, great. Thanks, Richard
RE: tcpserver blues
Hi Chris
You put this query up on the 10th. and tc lewis replied? I would endorse his
answer to you, look into supervise from the daemontools toolkit.
If you are starting off with qmail and want to get it up and going then go
with one of the established methods of setting it up - Life with qmail
and/or Tetsu Ushijima's excellent qmail-conf which has complete
configuration scripts for setting up qmail.
http://www.din.or.jp/~ushijima/qmail-conf.html
I believe that it is not recommended to run qmail in the background, and
with tcpserver it is not necessary. The DJB suite has a special way of
working together with tcpserver, the relevant executable (qmail, smtpd,
pop3d) and multilog. tcpserver listens for connections to a port (e.g. 25)
and kicks off the relevant program (smtpd) as required. It is correct that
"2>&1" redirects stderr to stdout but this is actually used (I believe, one
of the regular guys can confirm this) as a special pipe for multilog to pipe
the output to the multilog log for the service.
This is my machines run script for smptd generated by Ushijima's qmail-conf.
You'll see that smtpd is called without the & background option. It works
:-)
Cheers
Patrick

That is not correct, that will just redirect stderr to stdout.
You need to put a single & at the end of the line that starts up

Qmailqueue Patch and 451 error
I'm not sure if this is appropriate for the qmail list, but here goes... On two occasions now I've had qmail suddenly stop processing outgoing (only) mail. I have not been able to correspond this to any events and there were no changes to the qmail configuration, firewall or internal (behind the firewall) mail server at either failure. At both times, the mail server was running happily with the qmailqueue patch for months. At the first failure, I tried queue-fix, re-creating the /var/qmail/queue dirs, and changing the QMAILQUEUE env variable from pointing to our virus filter to its original destination of qmail-queue. What finally fixed it, however, was re-installing qmail from a virgin qmail tarball without the qmail queue patch. What's also odd is that the error message was different both times. The first, I got: deferral: _failed_after_I_sent_the_message./Remote_host_said:_451_qq_write_err or_or_disk_full_(#4.3.0)/ The second time: deferral: _failed_after_I_sent_the_message./Remote_host_said:_451_qq_internal_ bug_(#4.3.0)/ Again, both times the fix was to re-install qmail without the QMAILQUEUE patch. SO, I believe this patch to be mature and widely used. I have no idea why this is going on and why I haven't seen similar complaints in the list archives. It's occurred on both a RH6.2 system and RH7.0 system, both instances were running the most current fixes. The box delivers all its mail internally via smtproutes. Any ideas? Thanks!

Hello, here is my problem : I'm trying to run a qmail/ldap with dash_ext. I have a strange behavior with the qmail-lspawn patched. It doesnt check the LDAP server (I dont even have a connection attempt) and I get a "Sorry ..no mailbox/dir". The system runs well without the patch (connection to LDAP and delivery ok), but I really need the .qmail--subemail feature. Technical info : os : rh7 kernel 2.2.16 qmail : qmail-1.03 ldap patch : qmail-ldap-1.03-20010501 qmail-lspawn.c patch : version 20010501 Ldapserver : openldap.1.2.11 I putted the LDAPFLAGS=-DDASH_EXT in the Makefile Does anyone of you have some issues with the dash trick ? /Manuel

Re: Trouble with date
Dear Andrey There are a number of things to consider here - the server (qmail) side and your client (MUA) side: * qmail uses a more intelligent system of time stamping emails which pass through its system using GMT time which it (correctly) represents as (in your case) 06:57:47 - this says that at the time the message was processed by qmail the *GMT* time was - 06:57. This is used by qmail because it makes it more consistent regarding time values as messages are sent around the world. * Not sure on the time zone in Russia but if you want to check on your machine running qmail (if you are looking after that machine) run the command "date" note down the *local* time and the time zone it says which will be in your case (if we take 06:57:47 as the example) 10:57:47 and your local time time information. Then run command "TZ=GMT date" and note what time your server thinks is GMT. If the difference is correct for your time zone in Russia then your server, and therefore qmail, should be setup correctly for timezones. * Now the bad news may be that your client MUA email software does not/may not like working with the Received: field in the GMT - format with which qmail stamps it and it may not stamp emails with a Date: field which means that unfortunately (I believe I am not sure on this point) that as Robin & Frank say you have a problem. Does your client MUA email software stamp messages with a Date: field something like this - Date: Tue, 15 May 2001 11:02:03 +0200 - ?

Regarding delivery problem
Hello all, I have integrated qmail with ldap, this has been successfuly done and its working fine till today. Now am into load test the combination, The attribute deliveryprogrampath in qmailuser entry i have specified my own program (called maildump), Its a dumb program, it only stores the mail in a file in some directory. The permissions of that directory is perfect. When i bombed mails some mails get delivered i mean they get stored in that directory and others get bounced. I am using tmpnam() in maildump program to create unique file. In the log i saw "Sorry no mail box here by that name (#5.1.1). The same setup works if i send mails one or two or 3. It only bounces if they are many. In concurrencyincoming and concurrencylocal i have set to 20. Please do help me out.
