Re: Q: Using qmail for store and forward
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: We have several systems that send email to customers and our local suport staff concerning the status of jobs that are being run. The problem is that the system they are sending the email to is lately often down and the messages get lost. So here is what I would like to do. The processing systems would send their email to qmail on linux/390 by telnetting to port 25. Qmail would then send those messages to the company email server, it just happens to be Lotus, for normal distribution. If Lotus or that whole system is down then qmail will hold the messages and retry sending them every so often. Forgive me if I'm missing something, but that's precisely how SMTP already works. qmail will queue and periodically retry any unavailable MX for a configured (7 days by default) time period.

When qmail becomes a email it checks first the virtualdomain-file and then the passwd file to find out where's the home-directory of the user. Is there a patch who tells qmail to search the users homedirectory in the ldap-server and not in the passwd file? That's a control file option. Check the docs for ldaplocaldelivery ... that sounds like what you want.

Re: Using fetchmail with qmail
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Mark Delany wrote: The `forcecr' option controls whether lines terminated by LF only are given CRLF termination before forwarding. FWIW. This problem cannot occur if the pop server is qmail-pop3d. I've used fetchmail on a variety of non-qmail pop servers and have never needed forcecr. I hasten to add that that doesn't mean that Mikko is wrong, just that the you probably don't need this option excepting when you fetch from dodgy pop servers! I feel foolish. I admit to having been caught off guard by this one. When I switched to qmail on my workstation, I began pulling mail via fetchmail just fine using my existing configuration, and have thought no more of it. However, I do note a lot of bounces in the logs for various and sundry reasons, of which I also think little because of the volumes of mailing list traffic I receive. Please forgive my ignorance, but will the need for forcecr vary depending on the sending MUA, or upon the POP server from which I'm retrieving (which in this case is the UW POP3)?

However I'm not sure about how well does this system works (spam not filtered, not spam rejected, etc). Any feedback about using RBLs? Works quite well. Unfortunately, we weren't able to continue using it for political reasons. Once in place, rblsmtpd began rejecting and logging several messages per hour, and too many of the open relays turned out to be "friendlies". - -d - -- David Talkington http://www.spotnet.org PGP key: http://www.prairienet.org/~dtalk/dt000823.asc -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: PGP 6.5.8 Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.75-6 iQEVAwUBOt4GlL1ZYOtSwT+tAQFhSAf+L63fM1C27DGAwLgZ1hsE9Y/at43SyJhD JQy+s4M3M2d/sBSzAL9pMda9fI+FpqBQrHff5+RIpzqd/GQPPdclszaSnE5OdBUb 2iZ2FoJSQIW9qlhEUUEMsfqDSffje26gDWRu/eshnDFksSplxU/ATXcF7f+HRF73 p6m5SsOHqZBds54gYFD4OV5N4bggf4xpnS9F0Sy1f6JUQbuzshIzvUAXHNFSlGsW yl8XrMrBiFgeB7JVjcnd4kWK689NuXEtzrzsea4kDszGQcoUeUURj9WPTz/ybx3l KbxUZJi6nnn5yKGt+wpTZHiyzU8sW14KOQQsp+pHPtWDAZl0CTV0BQ== =Zgt6 -END PGP SIGNATURE-

Could be a lot of things. Have you verified that resource starvation isn't problem? E.g., you've got plenty of CPU cycles going to qmail, adequate RAM, adequate network bandwidth, adequate disk I/O performance... To wit: we just switched to qmail here at Prairienet, and it's so much more efficient than sendmail that disk i/o became the new bottleneck.
