dnscheck; Not logging Invalid SENDER
Greetings: I have dnschecking enabled: nodnscheck: (Default.) Any MAIL FROM is checked for existing Domains. My problem is that some senders continue trying and my logs fill with hundreds of Invalid SENDER lines for the each rejected message. Is there any way to prevent qmail logging these? Thanks. -- All the best (Adéu-siau), Lou Hevly [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.visca.com

Sorry, I wasn't thinking :(. I've installed SPAMCONTROL patch (1.4.2): http://www.fehcom.de/qmail/spam.html The docs say: The SPAMCONTROL patch enables logging for rejected E-Mails by means of QMAIL-SMTPD.

Here are the details: Answering my own question, it may be that because I originally installed qmail from an OpenBSD package, then did `make setup check` on the downloaded 1.03 version, that there was a conflict. So I deleted my /var/qmail/bin directory, recompiled qmail, did the spamcontrol patch, then recompiled qmail, and now all seems well. -- All the best (Adéu-siau), Lou Hevly [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.visca.com

I would like to begin using multilog instead of splogger.

Thanks for your input.
My problem was that I didn't hit return after typing 'tai64nlocal'. I
typed:
tai64nlocal @40003b225d8422c3027c RET
whereas I should have typed:
tai64nlocal RET @40003b225d8422c3027c RET
^^^
This seems weird to me, since all the other daemontools don't need to
be 'initialized' by hitting a return before giving them input.
When walking through a log file I'd like to do something like:
while (DATA) {
my $human_readable = qx!/usr/local/bin/tai64nlocal $_!
}
Any suggestions as to how this could be done?

Many local messages being generated ??
I'm running qmail v. 1.03 and vpopmail 4.96 on Linux RedHat 6.2. All domains are virtually subhosted. Everything is working fine. My init script is: csh -cf '/var/qmail/rc ' /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -H -R -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -u 506 -g 505 0 smtp /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -H -R 0 pop-3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup mail.inloc.com /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir The problem is I'm getting hundreds of local messages in my qmail maillog, repeated about 500-600 times a day. They are mostly like the following: Nov 23 14:14:53 inloc qmail: 975006893.795559 starting delivery 5791: msg 50247 to local [EMAIL PROTECTED] Nov 23 14:14:53 inloc qmail: 975006893.795692 status: local 1/10 remote 0/20 Nov 23 14:14:53 inloc qmail: 975006893.813645 delivery 5791: deferral: POP_user_does_not_exist,[EMAIL PROTECTED]/Can't_create_tempfile_(#4.3.8)/ Nov 23 14:14:53 inloc qmail: 975006893.813782 status: local 0/10 remote 0/20 The /home/vpopmail/inloc.com/.qmail-default file points to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and works correctly. This also happens, though less often, for other virtual domains. There is nothing in the crontab or cron log concerning this.

Can send, but not retrieve mail
Greetings: I have installed qmail and vpopmail on a dedicated server. The hostname is inloc.inloc.com and there are 5 IP's on this machine. I've registered a domain name (ducaniveaux.com) to one of them, using a host-provided program called 'spectro', and I want to do virtual subhosting under it. I receive mail as expected in the Maildir, /home/vpopmail/domains/ducaniveaux.com/postmaster/Maildir/new, but I can't retrieve it; I get a: Connection reset by remote side (10054) message. Is it perhaps because I don't have the DNS MX records set up correctly? There is no 'named.hosts' file on my machine. Because this is a dedicated server, perhaps they are handling this elsewhere. Moreover, when I installed qmail, I got the following message: --- Checking local IP addresses: 127.0.0.1: Adding localhost to control/locals... 216.71.84.136: Adding inloc.inloc.com to control/locals... 64.33.89.34: PTR lookup failed.

FOLLOWUP: Can send, but not retrieve mail
[ This message is being Cc'd to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ]
Greetings (again):
I'm still having problems retrieving mail from my
/home/vpopmail/domains/ducaniveaux.com/ducaniveaux/Maildir/
mail directory.
I just checked vchkpwd:
inloc:/home/vpopmail/bin# /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup [EMAIL PROTECTED]
vchkpw pwd
+OK 10766.962655981@[EMAIL PROTECTED]
user ducaniveaux
+OK
pass longgens
/home/ducaniveaux
I also tried accessing the mail using a Perl script from David Cross; it fails at the
point where it checks the password:
print S "PASS $pass\n";
if(!WaitForOk) {
print S "QUIT\n";CgiError("Could not send password!BRPassword or username may be
incorrect.")
}
I don't understand how, if vchkpwd is working correctly, my mail access is failing on
the password.
Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.

Unless I'm misinterpreting the meaning of 'log directory', /var/log/qmail/ isn't mentioned anywhere in the startup script suggested in LWQ.
