Thanks to Ken jones. or is it true that if having virtual domain, then the log in name will be the full email address since that's the only way to differentiate the accounts? No, not necessarily true. vmailmgr supports differentiation of virtual domains based on the reverse DNS entries of the IP addresses in use, if you can spare an IP address for each virtual domain you want to host. Why? Is supplying the full email address a show-stopper for you? Definitely not a show-stopper. I am more than happy with the performance of qmail. Just that one of my client uses www.thatweb.com to check their mail, and they were unable to do it. And just too bad, I do not really have spare IP. So i guess full email address is the only way to go. Johnny

Re: Virtual Domain
Lye On Siong Johnny writes: Are there any other way to implement virtual domain apart from using vpopmail? There are many ways. qmail is in effect a tool for sending and receiving email. You can use it in many different ways, vpopmail being just one of them. You could use vmailmgr (http://www.vmailmgr.org/) instead. Rumor has it that IBM has a virtual domain system based on qmail; I expect it's proprietary since they charge very large amounts of money for it. Or you could invent your own. I usually do that for my larger customers, because their requirements are specialized and unique.

$EXT value clarification, virtual domain question
Howdy Question 1) I'm not sure I understand the values of $EXT correctly. Will someone confirm/deny my assesment? There is a file ~alias/.qmail-mail:aaa:com-default. When in the file, the variables would be: $EXT: mail.aaa.com-default $EXT2: mail.aaa.com $EXT3: default Question 2) Let's say in control/virtualdomains I put: mail.aaa.com:alias-mail.aaa.com This will be delivered to the ~alias/.qmail-mail:aaa:com-default file (if it's the only matching file). But when I'm in that file, how do I know what username is being sent to? Could I put something like: mail.aaa.com:alias-mail.aaa.com-$USER in virtualdomains and thus catch it with $EXTs in the .qmail (and thus forward it to the right place)? Thank you all for your help, Ben

I tend not to use ~alias, but users/assign - but it is the same anyway... e.g. Say I receive mail for foobar.co.uk and want to map every username to the equivalent foobar.com address for delivery, e.g. [EMAIL PROTECTED] - [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] - [EMAIL PROTECTED], etc cd /var/qmail echo foobar.co.uk:foobar-co-uk control/virtualdomains echo foobar.co.uk control/rcpthosts Put: +foobar-co-uk:popuser:888:888:/var/qmail/popboxes/foobar-co-uk::: into users/assign (remember this file should have a . on the last line and you have to run qmail-newu to create the cdb) Then in /var/qmail/popboxes/foobar-co-uk, create .qmail-default with: Each of these does the same thing: | if U=`echo $LOCAL@foobar.com | sed 's/foobar-co-uk-//'`; then forward $U; fi (this should all be on one line) Here $LOCAL is foobar-co-uk-user1, so we need sed to get rid of the virtual user. If you use alias, you'll probably have to remove something else. Or | forward $EXT2@foobar.com Or | if U=`echo $EXT2@foobar.com`; then forward $U; fi Hope this helps, Paul Gregg.

Hello, I recently moved from sendmail to qmail-1.03. I'm having a few problems getting per-domain alias files working. I have a few users on my system that had shell accounts and also had some domains I hosted for them. Each of these kind of users had a domain.aliases file in their home directory so they could manage their own domains aliases' without bothering me.

RE: Missing To:/From: Fields in Virtual Domain Setup.
Andy, Thanks for the help. Pullmail is not removing the to:/from: headers. I've looked at the files in the Maildir/new and those fields are not listed. Here's a copy of the *.mail file in /home/user/Maildir/new: Return-Path: [EMAIL PROTECTED]Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: (qmail 24217 invoked from network); 24 Feb 2001 11:45:07 -Received: from unknown (HELO mail.xxx.com) (127.0.0.1) by localhost with SMTP; 24 Feb 2001 11:45:07 -Subject: TestTest End of message If I use qmail-inject and cat a text file with the to:/from: fields in it ala TEST.deliver, the system works fine.

Missing To:/From: Fields in Virtual Domain Setup.
Good evening! It looks like I'm on the last stretch of setting qmail up as a smart host. I do have one - hopefully last - problem. Here's what works: Standard qmail installation that works with SMTP and POP3. qmail-inject test work fine using TEST.deliver . Telnet localhost/IPADDR 25 and manually entering commands works and the message is delivered into Maildir just fine. I have pullmail running on NT machine to POP3 out of domain acct and shove it into Exchange. That works as well... My problem is, when mail arrives for [EMAIL PROTECTED], it is accepted, but the message itself no longer contains any To: or From: fields. When pullmail pops the mail from qmail server, Exchange bounces it all because there is no To: field! What have I obviously missed?? I've used the LWQ and set up the qmail server using Ch 11 of Running with qmail - Using qmail as an ISP server. Am I supposed to resupply the To: / From: fields using variables in the .qmail-default file?? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Create one file containing the appropriate forward directive, and
symlink or hardlink it to .qmail-virt1-postmaster, .qmail-virt2-postmaster,
etc.
If you don't like the brute force approach, you could have separate
entries in virtualdomains for the role accounts you want:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:postmaster
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:postmaster
virtdomain1.com:virtuser1
virtdomain2.com:virtuser2
The two postmaster accounts could then be handled by
~postmaster/.qmail-postmaster or ~alias/.qmail-postmaster-default, which
the rest of those virtualdomains are handled normally.

The only files you need to be concerned with for virtual hosts using vpopmail: /var/qmail/control/rcthosts metta.lk /var/qmail/control/virtualdomains metta.lk:metta.lk /var/qmail/users/assign +metta.lk-:metta.lk:512:5002:/home/vpopmail/domains/metta.lk:-:: /home/vpopmail/domains/metta.lk/vpasswd relevant password entries All of these changes would have been made if you added the domain with ~vpopmail/bin/vadddomain metta.lk I would suggest deleting the domain ~vpopmail/bin/vdeldomain metta.lk and readding it, something is severely screwed up.
Multiple users on virtual domain
Hello all, I know this has been answered before. I have seen the answer. But I can't remember the answer and I can't remember where I saw it before. A search of the archive for this list was fruitless. I am trying to set up a virtual domain to be controlled by a user. I want her to have complete control over the user names on this virtual domain. I'm afraid they'll conflict with other user names I might eventually set up on other virtual domains in the future. So I want all of this configuration in her account, where she can mess with it to her heart's content. I do not want her to have to precede these usernames with her username. Ideally, qmail would see trek.parts-unknown.org and figure it all out from .qmail files (or some other configuration) in her account. None of these users will be using POP on my server. My firewall is configured to prevent POP access (I don't like passwords in clear text). All of these users will have their mail forwarded to their regular e-mail addresses. For example, [EMAIL PROTECTED] will be forwarded to me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] The purpose of this is to set up a secondary MX for our Star Trek fan club e-mail addresses. The user in question uses /etc/aliases on her sendmail setup to configure all this in a relatively compact form, so it's not like she has a qmail setup I can duplicate. I tried vpopmail. It refused to do the configuration, saying that the virtual domain already existed. I grumpily understand this: I had already started configuring the virtual domain. So I tried removing this configuration from the qmail control files. But it still said the virtual domain already exists. I tried telling it to delete the virtual domain, whereupon it said it couldn't add it. vpopmail doesn't seem to be helping. So far I have added trek.parts-unknown.org to /var/qmail/control/locals and /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts. I have put an entry in /var/qmail/control/virtualdomains which looks like: trek.parts-unknown.org:star "star" is her username on my system. I have set up a bunch of .qmail files in her account. One of these is .qmail-xo. It contains my e-mail address, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Another of these is .qmail-trek, which I think should apply to [EMAIL PROTECTED], an ezmlm+idx mailing list with all our members in it. I can get to the mailing list if I change the above entry in /var/qmail/control/virtualdomains to: trek.parts-unknown.org:star-trek But then when I send her an e-mail on her virtual domain's username at [EMAIL PROTECTED], it fails saying, "Sorry, no mailbox here by that name." She is able to receive mail on my system; I have a cron job which runs under her account to mirror the fan club website which produces a piece of mail for her every day. When I su'd into her account and ran mutt, it was all there. In addition, I tried sending her an e-mail to her username on my system but on the virtual domain, i.e [EMAIL PROTECTED] This also got properly delivered. What this looks like to me is that the virtual domain configuration is having utterly no effect whatsoever. I'm sure it isn't supposed to be this way.

hi.. I've set up a virtual domain, say domain1. before setting up that virtual domain, I use domain0. I put domain0 in rcpthosts and virtualdomains. but when I try to send an e-mail to domain1 from another machine. it sent to domain0. is there anyone can help me with this?? thx in advance. yusuf
RE: virtual domain error.
Look at vpopmail http://www.inter7.com/vpopmail/ It's the perfect utility to set up vdomains... I would first erase any files you started messing around with. Reset them back to orignal state and then install.. It's almost to simple On 31-Aug-2000 Muhammad Yusuf wrote: hi..

In the dns record of each domain you can put the MX name of the box running qmail/vpopmail. What I have done on my box is run several domains with qmail/vpopmail but in the MX entry for each domain I put the name of the name of the box running qmail/vpopmail. When the smtp server needs to deliver mail it looks up that domains MX record then it will in order of preference starting at the lowest number (normally 10 then 20, 30, etc what ever the numbering sequence is) and tries the next highest and so on. The sending smtp server will not care it is delivering mail for abcd.com to wxyz.com, just as long as the MX for abcd.com says to use wxyz.com 's mail server. I hope that wasn't to confusing if it was. To put it in a nutshell, use the mail server box running the vpopmail/qmail for the various domains as the mx for each domain. The mail servers will sort out what mail goes where once they get it. As for your other problem I had the same problem but only for local delivered mail. I sent a message from [EMAIL PROTECTED] to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and would get returned because it couldn't find the that person BUT if a person outside of thisdomain.com would send an e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] it would go through fine. I was using a simular setup to you where I had my domain teoi.net as the main domain and then the other virtual domains. I had problems with pop3 mail retrieval and delivering mail from a local user to another local user. What I did was recompile vpopmail with the following settings making my domain a virtual domain along with the rest of them. After I did that I was able to send mail locally and my pop3 problem went away. These are the settings I used, you probably need to edit the directories for your system, I am using OpenBSD 2.6 . ./configure --enable-roaming-users=y --enable-relay-clear-minutes=120 --enable-ucspi-dir=/usr/src/ucspi-tcp-0.84 --enable-logging=e --enable-tcpserver-file=/var/qmail/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp --enable-qmaildir=/var/qmail --enable-tcprules-prog=/usr/local/bin/tcprules After I recompiled and setup my domain as a virtual domain along with the rest every worked finewell I did have a problem with the roaming user but that ended up being a file permission / ownership problem. I hope this helps you out. I know I had quite a time with it till I converted to completely virtual which works fine. All mail is in one directory tree sorted automatically by domain. Take Care, Dale

RE: virtual domain
/var/qmail/control (not /var/qmail). /etc/aliases has nothing to do with qmail. You haven't detailed your mailbox structure, Of course, if you're coming from a sendmail background and enjoy the use of a centralised aliases file and a few (IMHO) nice options that are available, then try out fastforward, the sendmail aliases 'wrapper' for qmail. It makes virtual domains pretty easy to handle as well.

desperately looking for solution to this virtual domain problem
hi everybody I know this is a tense subject on the mailing list, but please bear with me. ;o) I haven't even INSTALLED qmail yet, but would much rather use it on my RedHat 6.1 box than the stock sendmail that's full of holes. However, my dilemma is that I'm going to be running multiple virtual domains on one qmail server and dont want to use /etc/passwd rather i am planning to use LDAP DIRECTORY SERVER (WHERE I CAN SPECIFY MAILMESSAGESTORE AS WELL AS USERS HOME DIRECTORY ) and am curious to know what steps exactly I should follow to get the setup completed with qmail. , I have read through the FAQ's and found them a little confusing. I also searched through the mailing list archives and am even more confused. What I'm looking for here is a way to set up my server to accept mail for domain1.com, domain2.com and domain3.com ... etc, to domainn.com. Each domain should have its own unique users. That is, [EMAIL PROTECTED] is NOT [EMAIL PROTECTED] Is this going to be a problem? This is the issue that I fail to see (easily) addressed from what I've read so far for each of the domains so that each user can login using POP/IMAP to retrieve their mail( i am planning to use Maildir rather then Mailbox . I'd also like an way to handle Email aliasing so that [EMAIL PROTECTED] can be sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or wherever else I need it to go.

Re: desperately looking for solution to this virtual domain problem
Well, it is your lucky day, or unlucky if I am wrong. However, I just finished doing what you want to do. I will try to make this detailed but brief. What you are trying to do is make a POP3 Toaster (Or IMAP Toaster) with vitural users and vitural domains. Where each user of one domain is independent of other unrelated users on other domains. So that means [EMAIL PROTECTED] has nothing to do with [EMAIL PROTECTED] and both get mail without bugging each other, and more importantly, not bugging you. (IE: The first bob as nothing to do with the second bob and their mail will be seperate of each other.) What my list of software and instructions will give in the end is machine takes mail for whatever domains and put them in maildir format on your machine. What is cool about this setup is that you can have normal mail users like you would regularly think of, and also have virtual users, who will never login to the machine execpt for pop and imap. So its a duel type system Some of the great things about this system is that you can have quotas for vitural user based on amount of messages and/or total size of all messages for a user. You will also only have real accounts for the vitural domains. For example, when you host hell.com, will have a user call "hellcom" (For example). Then VmailManger will put the vitural users in "hellcom" account. So you can host a tons virtual domains. The whole system is alittle clumsy at first, but it works really well and it grows on you after a couple of days. For example, its a couple of steps to add a new user to a virtual domain, and more steps if it is new virtual domain you have to add. I am kinda running out of steam, so the docs are below. Post questions and will get replies back to the list on my second wind. To make this system you will need all/most of these below to make this beast. (Note: I did not use LDAP, so that might change things.) Unix Box that is up and working. (www.Linux.org or www.FreeBSD.org (Just to name two)) qmail-1.03 (www.qmail.org) tcpserve (http://cr.yp.to/ucspi-tcp.html) Courier IMAP (http://www.inter7.com/courierimap/) OpenSSL (www.openssl.org) (Encrypted IMAP) stunnel (http://mike.daewoo.com.pl/computer/stunnel/) (Encrypted IMAP) VmailManager (http://www.vmailmgr.org/) relay-ctrl (http://em.ca/~bruceg/relay-ctrl/) (If you want to let non-local users send mail through your server) You need these need these patches: qmail-103.patch (Big DNS patch. AKA: The AOL Patch. Just about required) qmail-1.03-quotas-1.1.patch (Hard quotas error patch. If you want support hardquota independent of VmailerManager) big-todo.103.patch (If you have a busy high volume server) big-concurrency.patch (If you have a busy high volume server) qmail-etrn-0.1f.diff (If you want to support stupid Exchange people) and the LDAP directory patch if your going to use LDAP. Install tcpserver. Apply qmail patches to qmail. Configure, compile and install qmail. Configure, compile and install OpenSSL and stunnel, and then Courier IMAP (In that order). Get VmailManger; configure, compile and install it. Get relay-ctrl, configure, compile and install. Make sure to read docs to all the software. This give you a good idea of whats going on. hi everybody I know this is a tense subject on the mailing list, but please bear with me. ;o) I haven't even INSTALLED qmail yet, but would much rather use it on my RedHat 6.1 box than the stock sendmail that's full of holes.

how to set up virtual domain with LDAP
i have compiled qmail 1.03 , with qmail-ldap latest patch , i am able to send and receive mails in to ~home/user/Maildir for my domain say "mydomain.com" now i want set it up for virtual domains say "virtualdomain.com" i have done "rcpthost" , "virtualdomains" and ".qmail part " to accept mails for virtual domain and FW it to other place , my problem is but how can i configure my qmail/Ldap directory server to accept mails for [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] and put them in to their respective /Home/User/Maildir can this be possible by defining maildirstore in LDAP (directory server ) and instruct qmail to take delievery directory from Directory server or some thing like that is there any workaround for this problem is there any solution that will work with qmail-ldap because i am not using /etc/passwd thanks in advance Prashant desai
virtual domain question
Greetings, I've never had a need for virtual domains, but am approaching that time and wonder if my interpretation of "Life w/ qmail" is correct... say I have an entry in the virtual domain file: domain2.net:xyz would mail sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] get delivered locally to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ???

I've supplied a maildir2mbox utility that does the trick, along with some tiny qail and elq and pinq wrappers that call maildir2mbox before calling Mail or elm or pine. * Does mail(MUA), I think binmail, support maildir? This is what came default on * the bare system load. How do you implement maildir2mbox and (gaaack)?

Virtual Domain Message Header Pollution
Hi- I have qmail set up on a server with multiple virtual domains. I am puzzled by, and want to remove, extraneous header entries that end up in incoming mail for accounts on the virtual domains. Specifically, there are various "Delivered-To:" entries that reveal the primary domain name. If I am virtually hosting foo.com on my server which is primarily bar.com, I do do not want foo.com's incoming email to reveal this in its header. Is there a simple way to configure this in qmail, or am I forced to write scripts to process incoming messages? Thanks!
Re: virtual domain does not receive mails
Thank you, Chris, for your hint... In effect was a owner problem. Now I have set viradm as the owner of /home/joe/Maildir/* and the mail arrives. But now I have an authentication problem with the POP client. I'd like to retrieve the mail of [EMAIL PROTECTED] with username "joe" and its password, but everything in /home/joe/Maildir/new has 600 permission and "viradm" owner and I cannot retrieve it with username "joe". How is it possible to solve the situation?

When I send an e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] nothing appears in ~/Maildir/new (the same thing if I try [EMAIL PROTECTED]). When qmail-local is delivering to viradm-joe (for mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]), it's running as the user viradm. I suspect that viradm is not the owner of ../joe/Maildir, so qmail-local, running as viradm, won't be able to deliver there. If I try "telnet 192.168.254.99 25" and then HELO, MAIL FROM: ..., RCPT TO: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I receive an "ok" from the mail server (no error messages). What I'm missing??? What do the logs say?

virtual domain does not receive mails
Hello everybody, after several trials qmail is working properly with its minimum configuration. Now I'm trying to setup the virtual domain "virdom.com". I've created the virtualdomains file in /var/qmail/control (there was not such file, before) and I've added virdom.com:viradm in it. I've also added virdom.com in rcpthosts. I've created the viradm user in RedHat6.1 and I've created his Maildir with maildirmake program. In its /home/viradm/.qmail I've written "./Maildir/". I've also created the user joe and in /home/viradm/.qmail-joe I've written "../joe/Maildir" (of course I had already created /home/joe/Maildir). When I send an e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] nothing appears in ~/Maildir/new (the same thing if I try [EMAIL PROTECTED]). If I try "telnet 192.168.254.99 25" and then HELO, MAIL FROM: ..., RCPT TO: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I receive an "ok" from the mail server (no error messages). What I'm missing???

Re: About virtual domain and IP aliasing
Hi, At 01:01 10.04.2000 -0400, you wrote: Pablo Martínez Schroder writes: I have some domains hosting in a computer, and I'm starting to apply bandwith management over them, so I have each domain hosted in an IP. With this I can control FTP and HTTP traffic, but I cannot manage the SMTP traffic because mail is throwed from the "primary IP" of the interface. I think it's nearly impossible to send mails from an IP matching the domain's IP, but is there any way? It could be done, by binding to an interface matching the domain name of the envelope sender of the mail. However, qmail-remote doesn't do it. I've taken input from the patches "local-bind" (by Chuck Foster) and "relayfrom" (by Chris Johnson) and generated a "bindlocal" patch to bind specific IP on outgoing SMTP traffic relating to sender's domain. Here unofficial patches against the source from http://em.ca/~bruceg/qmail+patches/qmail-1.03+patches-12.src.rpm located in http://www.bieringer.de/linux/qmail/ Also containing: XTND-XMIT patch (original on qmail-page looks like a litte bit old) virtual-greeting for the incoming SMTP (displays relating name instead of basic hostname) Hope this helps, Peter
forward all mail from one virtual domain to another virtual domain
i have to setup qmail with vpopmail/qmailadmin to forward all mail for domain-a.com to domain-a.nl only domain-a.nl contains the users. so mail for [EMAIL PROTECTED] will be delivered to [EMAIL PROTECTED] in control/virtualdomains: domain-a.nl:domain-a.nl domain-a.com:domain-a.nl problem is that all mail for domain-a.com is deleverd to [EMAIL PROTECTED] the catchall user. greetings marco leeflang
Virtual domain -- New Alias (Virtual) -- Host ???
Is there a way to direct email for a given virtual domain to an alternate host using a .qmail-default file ? I would like to somehow put this rule in a .qmail-virtualtarget-defaults file since I have other virtual domains that are aliased to this virtualtarget domain! Thanks!! __ Do You Yahoo!?
