[qmailtoaster] Set databytes per user
Hi all, Is it possible to set databytes/attachment size on per user bases? I've googled around and found these, but I'm not sure it's incorporated into qmailtoaster: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/qmail/users/132709 http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=qmailm=107147089627655w=2 http://www.cyber-sentry.com/index.php?id=76 http://www.pgregg.com/projects/qmail/mailquotacheck/mailquotacheck.php http://qmail.jms1.net/patches/combined.shtml Thanks. - QmailToaster hosted by: VR Hosted http://www.vr.org - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [qmailtoaster] Domain bouncing mail, vuser says user is fine -- still a problem
Dan McAllister wrotes: 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. sigh at least then, when things broke, I'd have some better ideas about where to look and what to tweak! I don't undestand your statements . Qmailtoaster is a solution to give you a complete mailserver, so you can't compare it to postfix , wich is just an smtp server . You should compare the qmail component of qmailtoaster to postfix or maybe you could compare some other postfix mail based solutions with qmailtoaster , but you will have the same problems you have with the toaster: you must know how to fix single components . Anyway, if you want to know how the things in qmailtoaster works feel free to download,compile,and configure the following simple components: 1) qmail + patches 2) vpopmail 3) vqadmin 4) clamav 5) spamassassin 6) simscan 7) etc etc etc Then break it and try to fix . I've choose qmailtoaster cause i was tired to recompile all the stuff said above . Just my 2cents . - QmailToaster hosted by: VR Hosted http://www.vr.org - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[qmailtoaster] QMail Server Port 25 Slow

Re: [qmailtoaster] Software Raid with Qmail?
yes it is possible to boot from software raid 5 (by making boot partition raid 1 and other partitions raid 5). but i don't recommend raid 5 for mailservers. Performance hit seems to be too big.

[qmailtoaster] AOL and smptroutes
For those that have not noticed, AOL has been rotating the IP addresses for their MX records on a daily basis. I think this was due to a comment made on the Spamassassin mailing list a week or so ago about doing something similar (and creating false MX entries that point nowhere) to help fight spam. Anyway, I use smtproutes to get mail to AOL (they always fail CNAME lookups here), so you can see where this would get broken in a hurry. I whipped up a script that will do a MX dig of the ISP (it's a variable so you can use it for any ISP, not just AOL), and then replace the old entry in /var/qmail/control/smtproutes with the new MX lookup. It creates a backup of the smtproutes file in the $TMPDIR (/tmp by default) in case you need to roll it back. I hope to make this a little more robust in the future, such as being able to handle multiple ISPs and such. If you see anything wrong with the script, please email me off-list and let me know. It's been tested on a Cent 4.5 machine. As always, the file is available from my site, under the Downloads section (http://v2gnu.com) smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature
Re: [qmailtoaster] domains were created w GUI not CLI
First rule of computing... (especially software engineering): If it works... DON'T try to fix it! As a former software engineer and manager (spent first 8 years of my career at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station writing Range Safety real-time missile tracking code) I can tell you from experience that this is a HARD lesson to learn! Software updates should be applied ONLY if: - You need the new functionality - Your old software isn't working - You are applying a security patch that fixes a known vulnerability Software updates should NOT be applied if: - The system is working fine as-is - The only reason you want to upgrade is to be at the latest release Hence, the reason my high availability servers are still based off of a Fedora Core 5 install (lots of customization -- but that's where we started). Could I upgrade to FC6 or Fedora7? Sure... but the upgrades are primarily in the GUI -- which I don't even install on servers! If it ain't broke (and FC5 is working great for me) then don't fix it!

Dan, Have you run the /var/qmail/bin/qmail-newu command? The qmail-lspawn program reads the /var/qmail/user/cdb file and passes the owner and directory information to the qmail-local program. The cdb file is generated by qmail-newu from the /var/qmail/user/assign file.

Is it slow on port 587 as well, or just 25? If I remember right, 587 does not do a IP lookup, where port 25 does.

RE: [qmailtoaster] sending to multiple address
Below is what the Outlook help says on the subject... You have to do this to enable using commas, otherwise Outlook defaults only to semicolons. Use commas to separate e-mail addresses On the Tools menu, click Options. Click E-Mail Options and then click Advanced E-Mail Options. Under When sending a message, select the Allow comma as address separator check box. Note A semicolon can still be used to separate e-mail addresses when you select the check box.

It looks like I need to reconfigure chkuser as described at http://wiki.qmailtoaster.com/index.php/Chkuser. I have some concerns about this process. Does it just update chkuser? The name of the package (qmail-toaster) suggests it will affect qmail also. rpm -U suggests that the package will be upgraded. Is there a danger of the upgraded package not being compatible with the rest of the system? I don't want to lose any of my current configuration. Do I need to back up config files before going through this process? Thanks.

RE: [qmailtoaster] Vmoddomlimits help/clarification
O.k. - so I have done a bit of digging and have some different (kinda!) questions. Can folks confirm/clarify: 1) That vlimits.default is actually used if you do not specify all the options with the vmoddomlimits tool? 2) That NOQUOTA is correct for no limit on both quota and default_quota both in the vlimits.default file as well as in the .qmailadmin-limits file? It seems so since vmoduser and vadduser accepts that for an argument. 3) That -1 is the proper value to have no limit on the maxmsgcount and default_maxmsgcount values in both the vlimits.default file and the .qmailadmin-limits files. I find the header file vlimits.h with reference to maxmsgcount and default_maxmsgcount as needing to be integers, but no confirmation that -1 sets it to unlimited. What would 0 do in this case? Disable maxmsgcount-ing, or not allow any messages?
