[Q] delivery & log file
Hello,
I think I am misunderstood in qmail system.
I have a domain of my own which is dynamically dns'ed by a ISP in Korea.
It is "arbago.com".
When I send an email to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]", it is sent from "mutt",
but I can not find it in the world nor in my server.
The log file says the following.
@40003b37f37412cea4d4 starting delivery 15: msg 46607 to local [EMAIL PROTECTED]
m
I did not mean to send it as a local email because "arbago.com" is dynamically
dns'ed outside in the world, not in my PC.
More interesting is when I send an email to a PC in the local net.
There is "jango" host at an internal domain "arirang", which is the server of
the local net.
And I have a user "yjy" at "jango.arirang". ("[EMAIL PROTECTED]")
The log says the following.
@40003b37f3d022e4943c starting delivery 18: msg 46607 to remote [EMAIL PROTECTED]
irang
@40003b37f3d022e4abac status: local 0/10 remote 1/20
@40003b37f3d03401ca14 delivery 18: success: 10.0.0.1_accepted_message./Remot
e_host_said:_250_ok_993522722_qp_25567/
This time it is sent as a remote email, but in truth the host is in the
local network.
I think I am misunderstood a lot on qmail system.
Please help me out.
The control files are as follows.
1. defaultdomain
bipa.arirang (a PC in the local network)
2. locals
bipa.arirang
kldp.org
arbago.com
kornet.net
3. rcpthosts
same as locals file
4. smtproutes
jango.arirang:10.0.0.1
dagem.arirang:10.0.0.10
bipa.arirang:10.0.0.20
5. me
arirang (internal domain/IP address)
6. defaultdomain

Multilog log file size specification
I've read the manpage and it states you should use the ssize action, So I put this in my /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-send/log/run: #!/bin/sh exec /usr/local/bin/setuidgid qmaill /usr/local/bin/multilog t /backup/log/qmail ssize 50 nnum 50 That is ignored. If I put it this way: #!/bin/sh exec /usr/local/bin/setuidgid qmaill /usr/local/bin/multilog t ssize 50 nnum 50 /backup/log/qmail Then files are created with max size of around 3k instead of 500k. What am I doing wrong?? Someone please help. Thanks.

I can't find qmail's log file.
I wan't switch syslog to multilog. I could't find log file in /var/log/qmail after I changed qmail rc file and restart the machine. The following is my rc file. #!/bin/sh # Using splogger to send the log through syslog. # Using qmail-local to deliver messages to ~/Mailbox by default. exec env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:$PATH" \ qmail-start ./Maildir/ multilog t /var/log/qmail Qiao
Re: qmail log file
Typically in /var/log/maillog or /var/adm/maillog, but it can vary depending on how your system is set up. Look for a line that contains something like "mail.*" in the first column of /etc/syslog.conf, the second column tells where one will find the log. "man syslog.conf" and "man syslogd" for more information.

When modifying or replacing a file it behooves you to understand how to interact with the program(s) accessing to that file. It differs depending on the program. You cannot treat a mailbox like a syslog file and you cannot treat a syslog file like a multilog file, etc. Regards.

Hi Brett, What you are telling, is completely right.. But, I also written that I tried to change the ownershop of the files with chown... So, I truncated the file to 0 bytes.. Then I did chown owner.group of the file.. This didn't do the job.. I understand that the root user did the chown bit, but how can Qmail know that this was done..? About, the log, you are right about this, but what is the best way to clear the log file? Basically a log data is appended on the end of the file, so I wouldn't think that you can't do such great problems by sending an empty string to you log files..

No maildir log file??
Hi everyone.. I noticed the following which I don't understand.. I have a habit of sometime making an file empty by doing: echo "" >file_to_empty.ext (Writing an empty datastring to it..) I do this with LOG files and also did it once or twice with an Mailbox file.. The reason for this is that I don't want to delete these files for programs that look for this (log) file.. I also did this with the Qmail log file, I now notice that this file doesn't grow anymore (e.g. nothing is written to this log file anymore..) With the Mailbox files if I try to fetch my mail I get an error telling me that the password is incorrect.. After deleting the Mailbox file (chown owner.groep doesn't help) and letting qmail recreate it, it works like it should.. Why is this? (Probably security, and how does Qmail know that the owner didn't create the file? I did a chown to give the right group/ownership to the file..) But the most important, how can I get Qmail logging again to my maildir file?? I deleted it, but he also doesn't recreate it any more..? :-( Thanks in advance for suggestions.. Bye Bye David Bouw

Can't find my log file
Greetings: Sorry to ask so basic a question, but after installing qmail successfully following LWQ, I'm unable to find my log file. `ps` shows that multilog is being invoked: qmaill 541 0.0 1.1 1092 356 ? S14:42 0:00 /usr/local/bin/multilog t /var/log/qmail qmaill 542 0.0 1.0 1084 328 ? S14:42 0:00 /usr/local/bin/multilog t /var/log/qmail/smtpd In these two directories (/var/log/qmail and /var/log/qmail/smtpd) I can find no log files. I also looked in /var/qmail/supervise/ and /var/qmail/supervise/*/log The doc says: "The log directory is specified on the multilog command line, so you can find it by examining your qmail startup script." I used the startup script from LWQ, but I don`t see where it tells me where the log directory is. I'm running on Linux 2.0.36. Thanks. -- All the best (Adéu-siau), Lou Hevly [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.visca.com

Thanks Isn't the current one /var/log/qmail/current or /var/log/qmail/smtpd/current, depending what you need? Sorry I cannot access the LWQ at the moment and I'm not sure wether I changed it slightly. But maybe the direction helps. The older ones are the ones with the @ in front of the filename. Ciao, Cyril

to get qmail system administrators name in the LOG file
Dear all, As we know that the Qmail delivers the delivery failure report(ie,bounced back mail)to the sender thru qmail-send program. But in the logs I dont get the name of MAILER-DAEMON/SYSTEM-ADMIN , but I simply get a BLANK name (ie, no from ID). How can I modify this so that in the logs I should get MY SYSTEM-ADMINISTRATOR name instead of BLANK name. Can anyone pls suggest regarding this. Thanks in Advance, Rgds, RAVI.V.R

Excessive build-up of log file at MAILHOST end.
I have just found out that the qmail installation at my site is generating a huge failure log at the host site. I definitely need to get rid of that problem. Can anyone suggest how? Thanks, Chitta
