Re: [qmailtoaster] Duplicate emails again (New toaster on Centos 5)

[Janno Sannik]

you probably have 2 lines for incoming mail forwarding.
Check .qmail file in your vpopmail/domains/yourdomain.com/youruser
if it has two identical line then you need to remove one.

to be sure you could paste the contents of it back here.

I've copied full headers from 'two' that I sent to myself.  (just one

different for the two headers.

I'd be really grateful for any help/advice.
  

Do you have a .qmail file hiding in there somewhere?
And id the address you're sending to an alias for other email addresses?

[qmailtoaster] need help - cannot get emails from 203.120.90.32

[P.V.Anthony]

Hi,

I am not able to receive emails from this server, 203.120.90.32.

The problem only started since last friday. Not sure what happened.
Called the isp and they said they have upgraded their server. They are
using qmail too.

Email sent through their smtp server gets to other servers but not mine.
My server can get email from other domains without a problem.

So I am assuming that I must have not set something right from the start.

Here is my smtp logs.

[qmailtoaster] logwatch

[Jake Vickers]

I'm going to be including some config files for logwatch in the upcoming 
release of Qmailtoaster-Plus.  I know Bob Hutchinson had some config 
files for Toaster that worked a while back (which I probably have hidden 
somewhere in my files...), but wanted to see if anyone had any other 
modifications/config files for me to look at. I've gotten logwatch 
working with Toaster, but it produces some **HUGE** emails - I'll be 
adding filters to parse out some of the data not needed.  Just figured 
I'd ask if anyone has anything canned already before I dug too deep into it.

Thanks.

Emails sent through 203.120.90.32 are received by other servers, like
gmail and yahoo, but my on my server it does not get through.

Emails from other servers like gmail and yahoo does get through my
server. Only emails from 203.120.90.32 cannot get through to my server.

Is there any other information I can get from the server? Please let me
know from which file.

Just checked that and all is good. ClamAV is not blocking the emails.
Plus the emails sent are just text emails.

[qmailtoaster] Domain bouncing mail, vuser says user is fine

[Dan McAllister]

OK... this is the 3rd time this has happened to me, and the "fix" I've 
used in the past just isn't feasible this time...


I've got a domain on a qmail-toaster (I've tried migrating to qtplus, 
but the sandbox creation always fails because of the symbolic links and 
additional mounted filesystems (backup and home are on separate 
drives)... but that's another story)...


The issue is that after running fine for a while, a domain's mysql 
database gets reasonably well corrupted. At current, if I do a vdominfo 
on the domain, it shows what I suspect is an error associated with doing 
signed arithmetic on an unsigned value, or vice-versa. The number of 
users is being reported as 2147483647 (which is 7FFF in hex).


If I run vuserinfo, all the expected users show just fine, however 
/something/ in qmail-smtp is reporting that there are no users in the 
domain (all users are bouncing mail as "no mailbox here by that name") 
-- so I suspect qmail-smtp is using the # of users value and finds it 
too large.


I've had this problem before, but on much smaller domains. Previously, 
to resolve this problem, I have backed up the old mailboxes, deleted the 
entire domain (vdeldomain), deleted ALL of the mysql databases (rm -rf 
/var/lib/mysql/*), re-started mysql (to generate new base databases in 
/var/lib/mysql), reset the mysql default password, added the vpopmail 
mysql database, re-added each of the users (plus aliases, forwards, 
etc.) manually into the vpopmail database, verified correctness, then 
finally restoring the old mailbox entries.


*There has to be a better way! *(With this particular domain, that'll be 
an all-day project! Over 150 users!)


Surely this mysql database entry that has counted the # of users can be 
fixed somehow WITHOUT starting from scratch! I'm no database guy, but I 
am a pretty astute Linux (UNIX) admin... so I'm hoping someone out there 
with the MYSQL knowhow can lead me in the right direction to fix this ASAP!


Thanks in advance,

Dan

Well it removes sendmail and since mdadm depends on mail-client then it
wipes off mdadm also. You could remove sendmail with --dodeps option or
after installing qmail reinstall mdadm (since qmail provides mail-client
dependency) . As far as I know mdadm is only utility for managing raid
devices and software raid will function without it.

I bet many of us (including me) run mailservers on software raid.

RE: [qmailtoaster] strange happenings

[Helmut Fritz]

Jake - wow.  I did not know that.  I used vqadmin to create my domains and
it worked just fine.  But that is all I did, create the virtual domains and
set the limits for mailboxes, aliases, etc...  Then I used qmailadmin to
finish things up and create users mailboxes, mail lists, etc.  I thought I
saw reference to doing it this way either in a mail list thread or in the
readme/wiki.  

Richard,
As someone else suggested, make sure you put in something other than 0 for
number of mailboxes, mail lists, etc. when you create the domains.  I am not
sure but that may apply to command line and vqadmin (accessible through
admin-toaster).

Did you use the webpage to create the domains, or the command line? The
webpage method is depreciated and shouldn't be used - it's left in there for
things like password retrieval and such.

Re: [qmailtoaster] Domain bouncing mail, vuser says user is fine

[Phil Leinhauser]

Do a google search for a product called navicat.  It's an admin tool MySQL.  
Once you connect to your MySQL, you'll see the tables.  When you right click on 
a table or group of tables, you have the option to check tables.  It will 
report the state back as ok, crashed, corrupted, etc.  On the bad tables, you 
can right click repair tables.  It will then fix any errors it found.  I have 
found Navicat to be a pretty invaluable tool for MySQL.  You can get a full 
feature 30 day demo I think.

Ok,

Go.

I installed the qmail and was functioning perfectly.
Previously, I sent email for some missed contact to test and he did not send
therefore did not exist the email account
Now, I sending for some not existing account and it sends and it does not
return not even error that the addressee does not exist.

How to adjust?

RE: [qmailtoaster] Domain bouncing mail, vuser says user is fine

[Helmut Fritz]

maybe you can use mysql to change the value?  i see a table called
dir_control in database vpopmail that ha a column called cur_users.
 
what is interesting though is that 3 of my domains show 0 users when in fact
they have users...  can anyone advise on that?

Subject: [qmailtoaster] Domain bouncing mail, vuser says user is fine


OK... this is the 3rd time this has happened to me, and the "fix" I've used
in the past just isn't feasible this time...

I've got a domain on a qmail-toaster (I've tried migrating to qtplus, but
the sandbox creation always fails because of the symbolic links and
additional mounted filesystems (backup and home are on separate drives)...
but that's another story)...

The issue is that after running fine for a while, a domain's mysql database
gets reasonably well corrupted. At current, if I do a vdominfo on the
domain, it shows what I suspect is an error associated with doing signed
arithmetic on an unsigned value, or vice-versa. The number of users is being
reported as 2147483647 (which is 7FFF in hex).

If I run vuserinfo, all the expected users show just fine, however something
in qmail-smtp is reporting that there are no users in the domain (all users
are bouncing mail as "no mailbox here by that name") -- so I suspect
qmail-smtp is using the # of users value and finds it too large.

I've had this problem before, but on much smaller domains. Previously, to
resolve this problem, I have backed up the old mailboxes, deleted the entire
domain (vdeldomain), deleted ALL of the mysql databases (rm -rf
/var/lib/mysql/*), re-started mysql (to generate new base databases in
/var/lib/mysql), reset the mysql default password, added the vpopmail mysql
database, re-added each of the users (plus aliases, forwards, etc.) manually
into the vpopmail database, verified correctness, then finally restoring the
old mailbox entries.

There has to be a better way! (With this particular domain, that'll be an
all-day project! Over 150 users!)

Surely this mysql database entry that has counted the # of users can be
fixed somehow WITHOUT starting from scratch! I'm no database guy, but I am a
pretty astute Linux (UNIX) admin... so I'm hoping someone out there with the
MYSQL knowhow can lead me in the right direction to fix this ASAP!

Thanks in advance,

Dan

Re: [qmailtoaster] Domain bouncing mail, vuser says user is fine -- still a problem

[Dan McAllister]

Thanks for the pointer to the tool, Phil...

Unfortunately, it appears that the # of users "bug" is a symptom, not 
the real problem. Using navicat, I have repaired the # of users entry in 
the dir_control field.
However, my users on this system all remain unable to receive email. 
(same error)


I have also verified (to the best of my limited ability) that the 
remaining mysql table entries (for dir_control, and the domain) are 
"sane" by comparing their entries with another server's tables...


The users are able to SEND messages just fine -- it's just their inbound 
mail that's bouncing. So I believe chkuser is working fine... what I 
next need to know is what other facility within qmail-smtp could result 
in this bounce message, and how can I test it to see where its failing?


Thanks again in advance for any help!

Dan

PS: I have to admit -- I'm getting frustrated with the whole 
qmail-toaster idea -- being a sys-admin for decades, I'm not used to 
deploying systems that are "magic boxes" -- I like to know HOW things 
work (and WHY they work)... but sendmail was a BITCH (always has been), 
and I was impressed with what other people had said about the toaster. 
I'm beginning to think I should learn POSTFIX.  at least then, 
when things broke, I'd have some better ideas about where to look and 
what to tweak!


hopefully, someone will show me a DUH item that will restore my faith in 
the qmail-toaster idea

Now everything seems to be working.

I would like to thank everyone for helping out.

How to adjust?
That will be your catchall control in qmailadmin.  You have it set to 
bounce silently, which is the preferred (but not proper) method. That 
way I can't send spam to:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

And get a bounce message for a and b saying they do not exist, but now I 
know [EMAIL PROTECTED] does exist (since there was no message) and spam them.
But, go into qmailadmin and change your default bounce mailbox to adjust 
this.

Re: [qmailtoaster] Domain bouncing mail, vuser says user is fine -- still a problem

[Dan McAllister]

Jake...

I DO have a bad habit of reading the documentation -- I use the vqadmin 
program solely for retrieving passwords when idiot users "forget" them 
-- usually the day after they have reset them for some odd reason.


In my environment, clients purchase a server and maintenance from me. 
They are then able to host their own services (web, file, email, etc) on 
their own server in a kind of "black box" configuration -- I do all the 
maintenance, security audits, etc. for them for a monthly fee.


Mail accounts (or more correctly, mailboxes) USED to be tied to User 
accounts -- until I switched to the toaster.  A HUGE benefit, if you ask me!
However, users cannot host additional domains without calling support 
(we haven't automated that task yet.) They can edit webpages, and 
completely manage their email domain (thanks to qmailadmin), but I don't 
even give them access to toaster-admin, much less vqadmin.


When a client asks for a new domain to be hosted on their system, they 
submit a request via email. At that time, we add the domain to their 
DNS, create a space for the web pages to be hosted, create an admin 
account group for the new domain (who are able to edit the web pages), 
and lastly create the email domain (vadddomain).


I actually then add a couple of items:
 1) I set the postmaster account to point to MY postmaster account -- I 
read the postmaster mail for all domains I administer, whether on my own 
server or a client's
 2) I create an admin user mailbox (usually the owner of the company) 
and set the password to something we've agreed upon earlier
 3) I create webmaster and abuse aliases for my own webmaster and abuse 
email mailboxes (on my own domain) -- same reason as for postmaster
 4) I email the client a PDF document that tells them how to log into 
qmailadmin on their new webpage, how to use THEIR account (not 
postmaster) and a brief primer on how to create each type of account 
(mailbox, alias, responder, and list). They can always call for 
additional support -- but the issues that new users bring up are usually 
added to our PDF document so we don't have to answer it again!


Which brings me back to my current issue... this client is STILL without 
email this evening, and I'm looking like an idiot because I've checked 
everything I know how to check...


Are there NO CLI diagnostics that can try to find out why (or just as 
importantly) WHERE qmail-smtp is failing to find the account???

I have no doubt, and hope you do read the sparse docs we've put 
together. The number 217-whatever is just one that I can reproduce 
consistently with vqadmin.
If you created the domains via the CLI (and I'm assuming the values are 
correct at that time) and they change later  That's an interesting 
one.  Is the mysql DB on a different machine as well? I'm starting to 
suspect something awry with either a DB being on a different machine, or 
the filesystems being on a different machine. I know there was an issue 
with MySQL5 when it came out, and I think the end-result patch just 
"pings" the DB every so often to keep the connection alive. Before that 
everyone was getting cannot connect to DB messages.

They are then able to host their own services (web, file, email, etc)

Very similar to what I offer my clients.

If you're PHP savvy this could be scripted.  I have a bash script I use 
to create new domains for my clients. It asks for the name, number of 
mailboxes, quota, etc. and then creates it for me.

I actually then add a couple of items:
 1) I set the postmaster account to point to MY postmaster account -- 
I read the postmaster mail for all domains I administer, whether on my

Good ideas. I leave it up to the clients for their bounce messages and 
what-not. 'Course I also set up and maintain their in-house networks, 
networks in other states to connect back to the home office, VoIP phone 
systems, I also do custom projects (http://thebuildercam.com/ as an 
example, which I built from the ground up in my garage), etc., so I 
don't feel guilty watching over their stuff as much. My biggest problem 
right now is AOL. They recently changed their servers, and I chase 
phantom-bounces all the time for 1 client who "checks the mail server" 
for me - 50 times a day. 2 weekends ago he only got 50 emails on a 
Sunday and was sending me text messages to my phone because he said the 
email server was broke. He normally averages 150-200 messages a day and 
figured that 100 or so had "gotten lost somewhere". It was just a light 
day. He didn't know of any emails that actually bounced, but he figured 
there had to be some. 


Which brings me back to my current issue... this client is STILL 
without email this evening, and I'm looking like an idiot because I've 
checked everything I know how to check...


Are there NO CLI diagnostics that can try to find out why (or just as 
importantly) WHERE qmail-smtp is failing to find the account???
You can use recordio to see what qmail-smtp is doing, and maybe see 
where the break is. I've been traveling the last few days so I haven't 
kept up on the threads much. What OS and version? Behind a NAT firewall

You're not that far from me. My office is in Orlando, but I'm moving to 
North Carolina this month. I'll still be in Orlando a couple days a 
month though, since that's where the bulk of my clients are right now.

RE: [qmailtoaster] strange happenings

[Helmut Fritz]

Nope - just checked the wiki and it says to do it with command line and even
not to do it with vqadmin.

Darned if I can find where I saw about using vqadmin to create and view
domains and nothing else...

Yeah, you can get some strange things by using it.  Like the other thread on
here that has a corrupted database, with 2147483647 users in the table.
Thats one I've reproduced with VqAdmin myself.  Best method (which should be
on the wiki now, if not email me the incorrect link) is to create the domain
via the CLI, and set your limits and such then.  
Then use qmailadmin to do everything else.

[qmailtoaster] disable Domain keys

[Jim Shupert, Jr.]

I am running
qmailtoaster-plus-0.2.10-1.3.12


I have not disabled domain keys.

I was wondering - Is that still suggested  - Should I disable domain keys via

cd /var/qmail/bin
ln -sf qmail-queue.orig qmail-queue 
And then restart qmail: 

qmailctl restart

RE: [qmailtoaster] Domain bouncing mail, vuser says user is fine -- still a problem

[Tim Mancour]

Dan,

Perhaps the database isn't the problem. Have you checked the ownership,
group and permisssions of the files in the domain's directory
(/home/vpopmail/domain/problemchild.com). The domain's .qmail-default file
could also being missing or corrupted and so can the individual user's
.qmail file.

Regards,
Tim

Jake...

I DO have a bad habit of reading the documentation -- I use the vqadmin
program solely for retrieving passwords when idiot users "forget" them
-- usually the day after they have reset them for some odd reason.

In my environment, clients purchase a server and maintenance from me. 
They are then able to host their own services (web, file, email, etc) on
their own server in a kind of "black box" configuration -- I do all the
maintenance, security audits, etc. for them for a monthly fee.

Mail accounts (or more correctly, mailboxes) USED to be tied to User
accounts -- until I switched to the toaster.  A HUGE benefit, if you ask me!
However, users cannot host additional domains without calling support (we
haven't automated that task yet.) They can edit webpages, and completely
manage their email domain (thanks to qmailadmin), but I don't even give them
access to toaster-admin, much less vqadmin.

When a client asks for a new domain to be hosted on their system, they
submit a request via email. At that time, we add the domain to their DNS,
create a space for the web pages to be hosted, create an admin account group
for the new domain (who are able to edit the web pages), and lastly create
the email domain (vadddomain).

I actually then add a couple of items:
  1) I set the postmaster account to point to MY postmaster account -- I
read the postmaster mail for all domains I administer, whether on my own
server or a client's
  2) I create an admin user mailbox (usually the owner of the company) and
set the password to something we've agreed upon earlier
  3) I create webmaster and abuse aliases for my own webmaster and abuse
email mailboxes (on my own domain) -- same reason as for postmaster
  4) I email the client a PDF document that tells them how to log into
qmailadmin on their new webpage, how to use THEIR account (not
postmaster) and a brief primer on how to create each type of account
(mailbox, alias, responder, and list). They can always call for additional
support -- but the issues that new users bring up are usually added to our
PDF document so we don't have to answer it again!

Which brings me back to my current issue... this client is STILL without
email this evening, and I'm looking like an idiot because I've checked
everything I know how to check...

Are there NO CLI diagnostics that can try to find out why (or just as
importantly) WHERE qmail-smtp is failing to find the account???

Well it removes sendmail and since mdadm depends on mail-client then 
it wipes off mdadm also. You could remove sendmail with --dodeps option or 
after 
installing qmail reinstall mdadm (since qmail provides mail-client dependency) 
. 
As far as I know mdadm is only utility for managing raid devices and software 
raid will function without it.

I bet many of us (including me) run 
mailservers on software raid.

Uhm, Gabriel --- have you ever looked at the definition of RAID, and  
investigated what a RAID is, and how it works? That ought to give you  
the explanation as to why your system won't boot when you unplug one  
of the RAID drives.


In short, you removed essential data. Unless you run a RAID 5 setup  
(minimum of 3 drives needed), the loss of one drive usually results  
in an unusable RAID system. That's the very nature of RAID.

Had a similar issue. With lilo no problem. With grub had a problem.

Here is the link that helped me with grub and seems to work well.
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Gentoo_Install_on_Software_RAID

Remember to grub both drives. Then it will boot up with any one of the 
drives.


Please note that with sata, the drive name changes when the drive is 
taken out. For example from sdb1 will change to sda1 when sda1 is taken out.
