You need to remove the backquotes (`). In most UNIX shells, the backquotes work by executing the command within the backquotes, and then substituting the output from the command into the command-line arguments. So, running "find" listed /var/qmail/queue/remote/0/277955 as the first file found, which the shell promptly tried to execute. It is of course not executable, so permission denied. -- Bruce Guenter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://em.ca/~bruceg/ http://untroubled.org/ OpenPGP key: 699980E8 / D0B7 C8DD 365D A395 29DA 2E2A E96F B2DC 6999 80E8 PGP signature

Filters executed by qmail-qfilter have their standard output (where
print goes by default) connected up to either the next filter or to
qmail-queue to go into the mail spool. If you want to print an error,
print to STDERR.
BTW, the deny-filetypes catches virtually all current and future
incidences of Snow White and similar viruses.

For sending a single message, the only difficult part of QMTP is calculating the total sizes before sending the package. After that point, you just send all the data and wait for the response. The server is forbidden from sending a response until the last byte of the package is received. Much simpler than the back-and-forth of SMTP.

I've been contemplating rewriting the patch to do an exec of
{ "/bin/sh", "-c", $QMAILQUEUE } instead of exec'ing $QMAILQUEUE as-is.
This would allow for putting the contents of the script named by
$QMAILQUEUE (which is frequently a one-line shell script anyways) into
the variable itself. Are there any downsides to this approach other
than the obvious overhead of adding /bin/sh to the execution path? Is
this overhead significant enough to make such a modification a bad idea?

On Behalf Of . . .
Some mail clients (MS Outlook) interpret the mail headers and decide that my mail is sent 'on behalf of' My Name. Possibly this is because they see a header 'Sender: ' that does not match the 'From: ' header. How can I make 'Sender: ' match 'From: ' ? As the courtesy to users of all persuasions, how can I avoid the 'on behalf of' message? Example header is listed below. You can see my box claims to be in the zinias.nl domain, when it really sits in the a200.nl. The zinias.nl domain exists, but is hosted somewhere else. Of course it's probably easier to look at the headers of this mail yourself. I run a linux box.

The obvious debugging technique is to record a copy of what you are piping to sendmail to see if that is a problem. It also isn't clear that you properly tested that you were running the same program your script is. You want to make sure you try using the full path used by the script.

Scanning POP3-traffic for viruses
Hi again! Is there a way to scan POP3-traffic for viruses with a Linux box? I'm thinking something like Norton's POP-proxy which ships with Norton Anti-Virus. It works like a proxy server for POP3-protocol, and scans all e-mail attachments for viruses. I would like to do the same on my Linux firewall. Thanks! =) - Jari P.S.
