May I suggest you keep sendmail up and run the smtp and pop services on other ports for testing purposes? Armando Now every once in awhile a really slick idea comes about... Great idea, because then you can telnet in to any port and verify functionality of the pop checkpasswd Cool :o) Steven M. Klass Physical Design Engineering Manager Andigilog Inc. 7404 W.

RE: CNAME_lookup_failed_temporarily._(#4.4.3)
I finally figured it out. Let this stand as a record for deja / qmail surfers everywhere!! 1. Can your computer do a nslookup of a FQDN and not yours? That needs to be working. 2. Can you ping a FQDN and an IP Thats where I screwed up! I could easily nslookup anyone but my machine had an incorrect entry in /etc/resolve.conf It need to say somewhere in there nameserver 127.0.0.1 That's what the problem was for me!! Thanks to everyone!

IMAP vs POP - small company 50
Hello all Sorry to tread on holy ground, but which is better. Some company info.. Only a few of us travel, most of us want to remotely log in, and see if we have any mail. Everyone accesses mail locally at work - obviously.. Thanks Steven M. Klass Systems Administrator Andigilog Inc. 7404 W.

Doh!! Newbie dumb question!! ucspi installed or not?
Hey all I'm getting ready to press forward, and install vpopmail. Now I know that I have ucspi source files, but I don't know how to check to see if it's installed.. Thanks Steven M. Klass Systems Administrator Andigilog Inc. 7404 W. Detroit Street, Suite 100 Chandler, AZ 85226 Ph: 602-940-6200 ext. 18 Fax: 602-940-4255 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.andigilog.com/
OK, I've install vpopmail, where is DJB test.deliver test.recieve...
Does anyone know how I can test a vpopmail installation. I know this may probably be trivial, but I like DJB's instructions, especially since he always allows provisions for testing..

Vpopmail - Installation - questions
Hey all I just started working with vpopmail and I am in need of answers. 1. The install guide recommends that all domains be set up as virtual domains. In the qmail/control/locals file I have my domain already defined. How can I convert that to a virtual domain? Should I? 2. The option enable-default domain = mydomain Does this mean it will be a virtual domain. The instructions aren't clear on this. 3. The option enable-ucspi-dir I installed this per qmail instructions. I was not aware that a compiled directory existed. I thought only tcpserver was placed in ../bin 4. What is Option enable-apop. What is apop? 5. What happens to my existing default .qmail files for postmaster, etc. 6. How can I map several names to one address. With .qmail files it's easy (I think). 7. What tools are needed for vpopmail to work correctly. I currently have installed qmail, uscpi, and daemontools. Anything else. 8. Should I install qmailadmin before or after vpopmail. 9. At what point do I enable options .. I am assuming the following command will work? make --enable-roaming=y --enable-default-domain=andigilog.com That's all and thanks a lot. Steven M.

Exactly. What makes you think this message indicates a problem on your end? That exactly was my question about one week ago. How do I know where the problem is? It's a DNS problem. qmail couldn't resolve a host name, and the resolver said the problem was temporary. Normally, you don't have to do anything except wait for the name server problem to be fixed. If you know for a fact that the name is resolvable, then you might have a problem that demands your attention. But it's not specifically a qmail problem. -Dave Steven M.

A better Single-UID POP3 Howto?
Hey all, I almost have qmail running right. If I can just get it to send externally, all will be well. Anyway, I read Paul Greg Single UID POP3 Howto, and I was wondering if anyone else had as much trouble following it as I did. No disrespect, especially since he did it, and I can't figure out how to do it. Anyway, can anyone suggest some lessons learned, a better howto, or a better way to start off. Thanks

Qmail - Switch from ISP to in-house server DNS Stuff
Hey all We own andigilog.com and earthlink is currently hosting both our email and our web. I want to save us some money and shift the email (eventually the web too) back to our local Linux box. I have recently built up the Linux Box and I have chrooted DNS running on it. I have not shifted my name servers from earthlink to my ISP at Network solutions yet. My box is budha.andigilog.com. I am not currently broadcasting this to world (DNS). I want to set up qmail and test it for andigilog.com, without bothering earthlink. When I set up qmail do I ./config or ./config-fast andigilog.com? Thanks Steven Steven M. Klass Physical Design Engineer Andigilog Inc. 7404 W.
