Re: Maildir problem

2001-07-23 Thread Martin Kong

Adding Maildir to /etc/skel is only good for users you'll be creating in
the future.  For all existing users, you need to run
/var/qmail/bin/maildirmake in each of the $HOME directory.

Is there any method can auto forward a outbound e-mail to an other e-mail

The process actually listening on port 25 forks a qmail-smtpd for every
incoming conneciton. qmail-queue is then run to place the mail safely in
the queue.

I find that hard to believe. At the moment you see that many
qmail-queues hanging around, qmail-smtpd's logs should read something
like so, if logged through tcpserver:

@40003b5cd7620a221bcc tcpserver: status: 30/xx

where xx is either 40 or whatever is specified in the 'run' file for
qmail-smtpd. ISTR that inetd does some sort of logging of how many
processes it has opened, but it's been so long since I used inetd for
anything that I've forgotten.

I'm running qmail on several boxen, all ReiserFS-only.  Not a single
problem to date, though I did use Bruce Guenter's syncdir patch, so that
could be construed as "cheating".  8-)

Hmm, according to the ReiserFS FAQ (http://www.namesys.com/faq.html#qmail),
the only issue affecting ReiserFS is the same one affecting ext2: namely
that link() and unlink() are synchronous operations.

I see no "special" problems... 

I'm currently about to go live with new ReiserFS based Qmail servers, and
haven't noticed any problem. If there is, I'd certainly like to know... :-)

Vmailmgr compile problems

2001-07-23 Thread Gary MacKay

I've setup a new qmail/courier-imap server and all is well except for
vmailmgr. I can not get it to compile. I had the same problem on an
older machine, figured, oh well, it's probably outdated. Not so.


 I've searched the archives and found lots of others with the same error
and no solutions. Due to the high volume of messages from people running
it, I'm sure it is a great package, but I'd like to try it myself. I
even have people finding my previous newsgroup requests for help and
emailing me offline!! Obviously I'm not the only one having this
problem.

Re: Inode allocation / qmail-queue?

2001-07-23 Thread MarkD

Er whatever other issues may or may not be associated with ReiserFS,
re-use of inodes does not present a problem for qmail and is commonly
seen on UFS.

If you look at the log fragment carefully you'll see that the inode is
only reused after the message has been delivered and thus the file
deleted.

It would be a problem if the same inode was in use at the same time,
but the log fragment doesn't show that.

By way of an example, on a FreeBSD 4.2 UFS queue I see that the same
inode has been re-used over 100 times for some 1200 deliveries.

Re: Inode allocation / qmail-queue?

2001-07-23 Thread Lordy

Hi Mike,

this is a known issue with ReiserFS. As you might now, Ext2 and ReiserFS
have many differences and you are just experiencing one of them. The whole
problem is documented unter www.namesys.com (the homepage of ReiserFS)
so you will find the information you need there.

In general you have two options:

1) Moving the qMail partition back to ext2 (probably /var)
2) Patching qMail with the ReiserFS patch. (I think that one is available 
through
a link on www.namesys.com too).

Just for your information: I have a linux box running qMail and I have 
moved /home
which contains the pop-boxes to ReiserFS but /var remains ext2. This makes sure
that mail is "securely" stored once it is delivered and if your queue (or 
the partition)
crashed you won't have much chances to restore it anyway.

Hope this help,
Lordy

Re: qmail newbie

2001-07-23 Thread Noel Mistula

Hi Joy,

The new script can be found on this link;
Make sure that you add the -i flags on all grep commands
so that it will not miss uppercase characters.

 
http://www.ornl.gov/its/archives/mailing-lists/qmail/2001/03/msg01041.html

The script includes the instructions on how to use it. Please read it
carefully. You cannot use the script like what you are doing. e.g. using
it
together with condredirect. Just read the instructions.

If you want to redirect the mail just edit the checkhab script. it is
document in there.

cheers.

host.equiv is not relevant to this discussion. So, you're not setting

Not likely. So, you're not setting RELAYCLIENT for anyone? Noone uses
this server to send mail at all (except scripts on the mailserver, of
course)? That's odd, but possible. Check out Dave's possibility (I too
almost got burned by this one -- apparently M$ Exchange makes it
non-trivial to turn _off_ percenthack, and enables it by default). Other
than that (an evil 'smarthost' setup), I can't see how anyone could be
relaying through you, except legitimately.

Hey, since you're on dialup and dyndns, isn't it possible that some
Windoze user dialed up, got an old IP address that at one time was
pickledbeans.com's dyndns, and sent this mail? The mail you forwarded
specifically said 'from your IP address'??? If you're not setting
RELAYCLIENT anywhere, then even your local LAN cannot be sending this
mail... Just a thought.

fastforward setup

2001-07-23 Thread Mike Wright

Hi all,

I have two qmail setups. Their qmail/control directories are
identical except for their individual hostnames. Their
qmail/alias directories are identical. The only difference
that I can find is that one is on RedHat6.1 and the other is
on RedHat7.1.The goal is to have a forwarder with no local
deliveries i.e. everything is a virtualdomain and everything
is routed according to etc/aliases.cdb.

The RH61 qmail works and forwards according to the rules in
aliases.cdb but the RH7.1 qmail doesn't.

The log shows that mail is being routed correctly up to a
point. i.e through qmail-inject, qmail-queue and qmail-send
but appears to fail within qmail-local.

starting delivery 5: msg 112266 to local
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
status local 1/10 remote 0/20
delivery 5: failure:
Sorry,_no_mailbox_here_by_that_name._(#5.1.1)
status local 0/10 remote 0/20
bounce msg 112266 qp 5607

Another note: the RedHat6.1 setup was done many, many months
ago. The RedHat7.1 setup is brand new. I've been trying to
figure this out for 5 days. I can only guess that I've
skipped a step somewhere but have been staring at the docs
for so long that I couldn't see it if it were on my nose:(

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Mike Wright

One more that's bitten me in the past is a catch-all that forwards to
a smart host. Since the message is coming from a trusted host, the
smart host honors the relay request.

E.g., spammer sends message to host A addressed to
"victim%hostc@hosta". Host A, running qmail, has no "victim%hostc"
user or alias, but does have a ~alias/.qmail-default that forwards
undeliverable mail to a Sendmail or PMDF "smart" host, host B.

Host B receives the message addressed to "victim%hostc@hostb". It
trusts host A, and implements the percent hack, so it relays the
message to victim@hostc.

The fix is to check for funny chars in addresses (%!@) before
forwarding to the smart host.

I doubt you're being used by a third party to relay. It seems much more
likely that some Windoze box on your network is infected, and that's
where the source of this problem is. Get a good virus scanner.

You really have to try to make qmail relay. Possible sources of relay:

1. control/rcpthosts empty.
2. RELAYCLIENT set for all/wrong addresses in /etc/tcp.smtp[.cdb]
(or wherever you keep that file) if using tcpserver
3. RELAYCLIENT set for all addresses in /etc/hosts.allow if using inetd.
4. An insecure .cgi script on your machine (not possible if not running
a cgi-capable webserver on your mail host), and RELAYCLIENT set for
localhost.

> Related question could this be the source of the [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I suppose it might be. Read some of the caught mail. The virus looked
like 'Snow White' tho, and that uses a null envelope sender, just like a
bounce message does.

Qmail and Maildrop

2001-07-23 Thread Fábio Gomes

Hi,

I'm newbie using qmail and I have a question about qmail with maildrop.

Do I need to replace my original qmail-queue binary using qmail-filter
patch to use maildrop?

The user lookup will still to be done by qmail or that will be done by
maildrop?

Is there some documentation about using qmail with maildrop?

I'm actually using qmail-ldap patch.

Regards,
Fábio Gomes

Re: Forged headers (email)

Do you have any other users than yourself? If not, then either someone is relaying 
thru yourserver or you are the one infecfted with the Hybris virus. Since i've enver 
heard of the Hybris virus being able to find out open mailrelays by itself it is most 
likely that it's either one of your users or you that are infected.

Hi, 

I work for an ISP, and we have detected the Hybris virus originating
in emails coming from your mail server. The emails have a forged
sender address, and therefore we are unable to contact the message
sender directly. I would therefore be grateful if you could trace
and contact the message sender from the original email headers
supplied below and politely inform them that they have a virus
infection, and ask them to stop sending the virus.

By the way, it is unlikely that the sender is aware that they are
sending these emails. This is part of the effect of the virus.

Please could you inform me of the result, using the email address
below (replying to this email using the reply button will cause your
email to go to an account which catches domains with no postmaster address)

If you use qmail-ldap, it's as simple as creating an user account with

And please use the qmail-ldap list for qmail-ldap related questions.

I disagree. That would defeat the purpose of dropping the
connection before having to deal with a transaction. I get around this by
providing a URL from which a message can be sent, and this URL appears in
any (reasonable) bounce message as a result of being blocked.

qmail newbie

2001-07-23 Thread Joy Hundley

I'm completely new to qmail, and I've read the man pages on condredirect but
I'm having no luck getting this to work.  If someone could please enlighten
me, I would be forever grateful.

Facts:  I'm running qmail 1.03 on a RH 7.0 box.

Problem:  I copied the following program into /var/qmail/bin/checkattach:

___
#!/bin/sh
#
# qmail -- checkattach
# Author: Noel G. Mistula <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
# Date: 28 June 1999 Version: 0.1
# I appreciate any comment to this quick and dirty way of filtering
attachment.

# Modified: 7 July 1999 Version: 0.3
# Modified: 7 May 2000 Version: 0.4

# This is release under the GNU/GPL.
# This is a very crude program. Use at your own risk.
# This will bounce incoming email with executable,
# video and other attachments. Just remove/add
# whichever filetype (e.g. EXE, AVI, COM) is required.
#
# I use this in a user's .qmail file
# by adding the line
# |/usr/local/bin/checkattach
# before the ./Maildir/
#
# Make sure to chmod 555 /usr/local/bin/checkattach
# so that qmail users can execute it.

# Start program here.
### This part is the new version (ver. 0.3)
printmsg () {
echo "The reason your email was rejected is you sent an attachment that can
cause problems."
echo "Sorry, the attachment you sent is in violation of our company's
policy because it can cause problems like virus, or increase traffic load,
or delete file(s) and/or among others."
echo "Please disable HTML formatting when sending email because Visual
Basic Script Worms/Virus normally exploits this."
echo "--- Attachment filetype you sent is $ATTYPE"
}

#
# Check for NOT allowed attachment.
# Here you can include more filetype you want.
#
checktype () {
case $ATTYPE in
VBS | VBE | JSE | CSS | WSH | SCT | HTA | VXD | EXE | HTM |

printmsg $ATTYPE
exit 100;;
*)
;;
esac
}

#ATTACHTYPE=`grep "filename=" - | gawk '{split($NF, results, ".");
r=toupper(results[2]); print r}' | cut -c -3`
Below doesn't work if more than 2 fields in name=
#ATTACHTYPE=`grep "name=" - | gawk '{split($NF, results, ".");
r=toupper(results[3]); print r}' | cut -c -3`
 End of ver. 0.3

Below works OK
## This part is recently modified (7may2000) because I noticed that the gawk
part in the
## ATTACHTYPE above, doesn't properly check when you have a filename like
## THIS.IS.A.VBS.VIRUS.txt.vbs
## The ATTACHTYPE below resolves this problem ;).
ATTACHTYPE=`grep "name=" - | gawk 'BEGIN {FS="."}; {print toupper($NF)}' |
cut -c -3`
for ATTYPE in $ATTACHTYPE
do
checktype $ATTYPE
done
 End of ver. 0.4

exit 0





I then added a .qmail file with the following information in user's home
directories:
|condredirect [EMAIL PROTECTED] /var/qmail/bin/checkattach
./Maildir/

My problem is that it is redirecting everything to the address to be
forwarded to, not just the emails with attachments.  What's up with this and
why is it happening?  Like I said -- I'm new to qmail and I've read the man
pages and I'm just not having any luck with this.  It is probably something
very simple, and I would really appreciate it if someone could explain it to
me.

2001-07-23 Thread luke

I need ezmlm subscribe (sub-ok) and unsubscribe (unsub-ok) emails to have
dynamic subject depending on mailing list.

Details of the implementation below. I am inviting critisisms :)  so I can
improve on it. What do you think?

Thanks


Luke




1) I added a function "getSubjectFrom1stLine()" to ezmlm-manage.c which
basically reads the above mentioned file and extract to first line, upto 50
chars.

==
char *getSubjectFrom1stLine( char *dir, char *fname ) {
  static char subj[61] = "Subject: GoodOrient.com";
  char fn[255];
  FILE *fp;

  strcpy( fn, dir );
  strcat( fn, "/" );
  strcat( fn, fname );
  if( fd = fopen( fn, "r" ) )
if( fgets( fn, 50, fd ) )
  strcpy( ( subj+9), fn );  // to overwrite text after "Subject: "
  fclose( fd );
  return subj;
}
==

2) Next, I replace line "qmail_puts( &qq, TXT )" in geton() and getoff()
with...
"qmail_puts( &qq, getSubjectFrom1stLine( workdir, "text/sub-ok" ) );" for
geton()
"qmail_puts( &qq, getSubjectFrom1stLine( workdir, "text/ubsub-ok" ) );" for
getoff()

Let me begin my assessment of your ad hominem attack with an exec
summary: you suck.

Having proven over an extended period of time that your are an
incompetent luser with the technical expertise of an amoeba, you are
now publicly attacking members of a company that offers a whole host
of free software (very good software at that). 

Now, apart from the fact that you do not leave the impression of being
able to assess inter7's technical expertise due to the fact that your
technical understanding does not extend beyond clicking on setup.exe,
I have also yet to see someone using their MUA in the way you do and
yet be able to competently run a mail server.

It may come as a surprise to you, but this is not the correct place to
discuss your intellectual shortcomings, your very own non-qmail
related technical problems (like, not wasting everyone's bandwidth
(for which some people have to pay, you know?) with your luser
software) or your personal problems with some help-desk staff
somewhere on this planet.

And while we're at it: 3rd party patches, MySQL and all of inter7's
software do not belong here, either. "Not belong" as in "go read the
instructions on cr.yp.to and then unsubscribe or - preferably - die".

Since you mentioned it, please reread RFC 2821, section 4.5.1, last

In the matter under discussion (a grevious spam attack against mail
providers hosting thousands of users), blocking all incoming mail from
a specific IP address does /not/ contravene any RFC I've seen.

It's also a step I don't take lightly.  If I block off all mail from
your IP address, instead of simply filtering out the offending stuff or
telling my users to delete it and get on with their lives, it means you
committed a grevious faux pas, intentional or otherwise, against my site
and my users.  If I'm not up to my eyeballs in support calls, I might
take the time to craft and apply an appropriate filter.  Otherwise,
I slam the door shut and get on with the other stuff.

And as I mentioned, it's not as if I'm cutting off the only means that the
offending site admin can communicate with me, nor does it take a lot of
effort to discover those other channels.

If you can find a standards document anywhere that says unequivocally
that mail to postmaster MUST be accepted under any and all circumstances,
and therefore that my choice of actions is wrong in a "legal" sense,
please let me know where I can find it.

Or you might want to consider RFC compliance.

Loosely stated in the RFC's for the SMTP protocal..   'postmaster' should
be a valid mailbox.  and should always work.   I would assume it should
even work for domains you blacklist. (There COULD be a legit need for a
blackholed domain to get in touch with the mail administrator.  For
example "Hello,  you've blocked me,  what should I do to secure my
mailserver?  would you be so kind as to help?")

If you allow mail from all domains to 'postmaster'   none of your
customers/clients will recieve the spam.   only tme mail administrator
will. He/She can take whatever steps they decide upon.  Including but not
limited to..   sending an email to the mail admin of the domain in
question,  reporting it to various third party organizations (al la
spamcop.net) or simply deleting the email.


Of course,  everyone has their own opinions.   Mine happens to be "comply
with the standards. Thats what they were written for."

Re: Re: SMTP Auth Patch Question

2001-07-23 Thread alexus

its not even near like that

i do know what open source means

and inter7 also offering a commercial support.. which only showed me and my
company that inter7 doesn't really handle it on professional level .. maybe
i'm wrong.. its just my opinion and i can't say that their products is bad..
i really like their products and use most of them .. apparantly there is two
different departments with different people who developed this software and
who suppoorts it.. its just when i was keep telling them about their bugs
they didn't seem to want to accept that .. and people keep e-mailing me with
this specific issues that i've tryed to discuess with inter7 on their
mailing lists.. and instead of fixing those problems not only inter7 refuses
to acknowledge them they also basically asked me and other folks whoever was
activly discussing this issue to take this matter some place else due to we
were making a bit more traffic with their mailing lists then its usually is
which is almost nothing .. if you'd sign up on their courier imapd or
sqwebmail .. those lists are almost dead.. and when we start discussin them
for uknown to me reasons inter7 wasn't very happy about all that... also
some people (i'm not going say their names) at inter7 doesn't seem to know
basics as well.. one of the bugs was related to mysql .. user permitions and
such.. their suggests was to use root.. apparantly not everyone seems to
like that idea.. so people wanted to create another user with right
privilages and use this user instead.. inter7 had no clue how all privilages
in mysql works.. anyway.. i'm sure its very boring for most of the people
and its not really related to our subject... so i'll stop.. let me just end
my lines with that even though looks like inter7 is bunch of  i'm
sure they are still a good people:)

a perfect example of the saying "A bad craftsman blames his tools"...its
really painful to see people using open source products without knowing 
what the word "Open source" means.
