Re: [qmailtoaster] smtp allow deny

[Janno Sannik]

Seems like it's not % but actually it count.
I have something like this:

Max  Allow: 9741.0 Smtp (974.1%)
Average  Allow: 8018.0 Smtp (801.8%)
Current  Allow: 8038.0 Smtp (803.8%)
Max  Deny:  6777.0 Smtp (677.7%)
Average  Deny:  5469.0 Smtp (546.9%)
Current  Deny:  5508.0 Smtp (550.8%)

Friends,

the above is my Smtp Allow/deny:

why doesn't allow & deny add up to 100 %
and how can allow be over 100%
 
I am thinking that this shows an avg of 8% of all mail sent to my 
users is denied via RBL (it looks like spam)

is that correct?
the allow & deny not adding up to 100% has me most vexed.
 
thanks
 
and have a great day!

maybe you can use multilog,
I see it on qmt-iso, Jake create a script call watchall which display 
log for smtp, send, pop3 and imap

but for me I just need 4 LCDs 17" or 1 Plasma monitor 42" :)

watchall is a great little tool. All of my machines are remote, so I SSH 
into them and they look great on my laptop. I have to agree that trying 
to watch them with the watchall tool on a local CRT kinda stinks though. 
You could adjust your local font to something a little smaller and that 
would make the windows scale better.

did you notice that there is no CHKUSER_RCPTLIMIT and 
CHKUSER_WRONGRCPTLIMIT enviromnet on network 127. (or maybe also in your

Neil, I assume you only change for other network, but your users (mine

Eric, if there are no value for CHKUSER_RCPTLIMIT and

I think I understand what you're saying Remove spamhaus from your
blacklists file and use different RBLs. Or use the submission port to
send emails (port 587). Port 587 does not do a blacklist check.

[qmailtoaster] QMT ISO that works?

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

I've built quite a number of these QMT machines but lately, I'm having so many
problems, I need a starting point to get things working properly. While
installing, I get constant errors which I cannot resolve so wish to try
something different.

I saw an ISO of a pre-installed QMT somewhere but recall that the one I tried
didn't work very well. Actually, it just kept going into CentOS installation
mode and not installing QMT as I remember.

Anyone know of an ISO which does in fact work well?

I make the only ISO for the QMT package. Not sure which version you had 
downloaded prior, but there's a new version with some more features out now:

wiki.qmailtoaster.com has more info an links.
It's been installed and tested on 2 of my dev machines, and installed on 
37 other installations to date.

Why would you check the POP? That's only for users to receive messages 
from the server.
What you're looking for is POP before SMTP relaying. It's in the mailing 
list archives and I think on the wiki as well.

Yes it does. I'm assuming this was a new installation. We'll need some 
more info, like OS, version, what steps you followed for installation, 
etc. Usually what happens there is you failed some dependencies for 
spamassassin so it was not installed.

[John Carlson]

Thanks for the reply,

I am running the newest version of qmailtoaster on a Fedora Core 6 box, 
and I didn't see any kind of errors when I did the install. I used the 
information from the qmailtoaster website to complete the installation. 
the only thing I didn't do in the installation is I didn't setup the 
djbdns and I didn't add any domain keys. and when I do a qmailctl stat 
it doesn't show spamd in there. so I am assuming I need to re set that up.

RE: [qmailtoaster] QMT ISO that works?

[Joseph Lundgren]

Mike,

The existing QMT toaster works quite well for me.  If the standard
installation fails because you're doing something wrong, then the
QMT-ISO install is also likely to fail.  Maybe instead of deriding that
work, you should do the standard installation and figure out where
you're having problems.

If you cannot resolve your problems with the standard installation, you
may want to consider getting commercial support.  See:
http://wiki.qmailtoaster.com/index.php/Main_Page and search for
"commercial support".

[qmailtoaster] Steps to change the IP address of qmail server

[Bill Kwok]

Dear all,

I am planning to change my ISP and hence the IP address of my server is
going to be changed.

Due to limited resources, I can't setup another server while switching over
to the new IP.  My server has around 60 users.  I plan to:

  1. Shorten the refresh time of my MX record to 900 (15 mins) from the
  current 3600 (1 hour) for 4 days to make sure all DNS gets the changes;
  2. change the MX record to the new IP address and plug my server to
  the new network

Does the above steps work and are they enough?  My current MX record use the
following settings:
   refresh = 3600 (1 hour)
   retry   = 900 (15 mins)
   expire  = 360 (41 days 16 hours)
   default TTL = 86400 (1 day)

Your comments are appreciated.

Best regards,
Bill

RE: [qmailtoaster] Steps to change the IP address of qmail server

[Jared Markell]

This isn't bad. Only thing I would do differently is possible setting both
IPs in your MX records, the new one having a lower priority, before you do
the IP change. This can only be done though, if you know the new IP address.
 
domain  IN MX 10 old.ip.add.ress
IN MX 20 new.ip.add.ress
 
This way, even slower-to-update servers will try to send to the new one once
the old one is dead. After the IP change is live, remove your old MX 10 and
make your MX 20 the new 10.

I didn't say it fails, I said there are problems. I didn't get into the
problems because they aren't that big. I asked if there was something else to
see if I had options.

Deriding? You're putting an awful lot of words in my mouth aren't you?

Yes, thanks for all the input :).

Downloading it right now and will give it a try. I'm sure it was user error

Well, if I can get it going, it'll make another 4 servers here.

[qmailtoaster] Sender Address Verification?

[Sergey Menshikov]

Hi All,

Does qmaltoaster support Sender Address Verification?

This is when mail server keeps e-mail in some inbound queue after 
receiving it while checking sender's address via outbound SMTP.


I was told this is very effective against spam on low-volume sites.

Thank you!
Sergey

[Jean-Paul van de Plasse]

Hi,

No it does not (yet).
I did have intent of making this, but shortage of time got in the way.
So far I did not see any other requests about this also.

It is also effective on high volume servers, as long as there is some sort 
of caching.

Many large ISP's are using this technique.

You put to many recipients in the To: or CC: fields. That is defined in 
your /etc/tcprules.d/tcp.smtp file. You'll see:

CHKUSER_RCPTLIMIT="50",CHKUSER_WRONGRCPTLIMIT="10"
Teh RCPTLIMIT is how many people can be in the To: or CC: fields (yours 
will be different than mine is), and the WRONG one will be for when mail 
comes in - in my config if it fails more than 10 recipients it gets bounced.

Nope. qmailctl cdb rebuilds all the .cdb files. Restarting just reloads 
the current configs (tcp.smtp has to be rebuilt)

Re: [qmailtoaster] Steps to change the IP address of qmail server

[Bill Kwok]

Dear Janno,

Thank you for the recommendation.

Although my server has only 1 NIC right now, your suggestion is very
attractive.  May be I should add anohter NIC when it's possible.  I've also
heard from the list that qmail will always use the last eth interface.
Would you show me how to run qmail by using 2 NIC?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
Bill

Re: [qmailtoaster] Steps to change the IP address of qmail server

[Janno Sannik]

I used this: http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html howto 
to route multiple uplinks. At first i configured the first one (old one) 
to be default gateway. Then i got another uplink then i changed script 
to reflect that. And it worked flawlessly.
This is needed for your qmail box to know then there is incoming 
connection to respond to that through gateway it game from. By default 
it accepts your first isp's connection but sends response to the default 
gateway (isp2, the new one).



Since I had old junk laying around I was able to put together test 
environment: 2gateways, 1 client , 1 server with 2 gateways to test it 
out if it actually works out of the box. There were some tweaks, but it 
worked.
