Probably you've already gotten this response, but sqwebmail only works with maildirs. On Tue, 2 May 2000 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > > > I stand corrected.

Re: QMAIL 1.03 SMTP antispam filter patch
Is there a qmail-ldap list? Has anybody successfully installed the qmail-ldap patch? What type of scalability does it offer vs. vpopmail? Any thoughts, insights, and theories will be appreciated. Patrick
Re: newbie question
Qmail isn't hard to set up, although I recommend having at it a couple of times before you install your production server. Migrating from mercury mail may be more difficult, I don't know enough about mercury mail to give you an idea about how its features might affect migration. Qmail allows many pop options, including its own qmail-pop3d, but also Cyrus, Qpopper, imap-4.5, etc... Other applications such as vpopper and Squebmail allow this flexible mta to serve more functions, like a webmail server. Finally, there's a patch allowing ldap support.

Re: LWQ: Problem when starting qmail with the script
Make sure you're using a version of daemontools greater than 0.53. In daemontools 0.53, what's later known as setuidgid is called setuser. Upgrade to the latest daemontools, daemontools-0.70 for best results.

Re: qmail startup problems help
I am having the same problem with non-persistant links... I placed the command for creating links in rc.local and everything works fine, but I'd like to know why the created links aren't persistant. Using RH 6.2. Patrick On Mon, 17 Apr 2000, Madhav wrote: > Hi all, > We have installed qmail step by step till starting qmail as given in the > qmail-HOWTO.
