Re: [qmailtoaster] nutsmail

I've had a nutsmail install on my toaster since forever. The only  
problem/issue I have with it is having to keep paying for updates as  
squirrelmail security updates come out. I originally thought that you  
would receive security patches as long as the major version didn't  
change. I don't plan to install it on my new server.

nutsmail.com
I'm running it on one of my servers, and on my Qmail array.  Easy to 
install. When you download, they include the whole Squirrelmail package, 
so it's almost a drop-in replacement.  Only thing I haven't gotten 
around to is making the qmailadmin plugin looking nice in it yet.
IM me tomorrow and I'll set you up with a login to take a look at it if 
you want.

[qmailtoaster] Can I use QMT as a Spam Killer

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

One thing is that spam went way way down while I was using QMT.
Are there any documents out there on perhaps using QMT simply as a
pre-processing host? All email coming into the network would go though that
first, get cleaned, then continue on to the mail server.

Good Luck Mike.

We hope to make this system simpler in the future, but for now it is
legacy because of the old licenses and so forth.

Now that things are moving forward within the Qmail community we will
be moving forward with making our Qmail the easiest and best system.

Hope the commercial application works for you.

[qmailtoaster] Selling: Automated Email Signup - QMT Qmail

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

Anyone interested in an automated email sign up package for Qmail? It works
with QMT and qmail with vpopmail installed.

The software itself was an open source package which remains unchanged but has
the addition of newly added captcha to help protect from spammers and
troublemakers.

I'm not selling the software but the additional programming which I paid for
in order to get this to work with captcha.

The open source package remains as it was. The problem was the way it was
designed, needing some creative programming to actually get it to work with
captcha. The captcha look and design can be modified. We never got around to
it yet. If anyone is interested at $25.00, just contact me and I'll give you
the URL to try it out.

What is

It should be a symlink to /var/qmail/bin/qmail-queue.orig, which should

I guess it's as easy as making a backup of the bin directory. That's what I'll
do then follow the wiki. It doesn't say anything about the tcp.smtp file
changes needed though?

What should it look like afterwards, so that it handles only SPF?

Disabling it is what caused me a lot of grief when I first installed. The wiki
suggested method ends up breaking things you can't fix unless you understand
the packages very well. The suggested method broke very special symlinks that
took weeks to figure out with the help of several people on the list. It
finally took one of the guy's (thanks) to log into my system to take a look
and he was able to figure it out.

Is there another way I can disable this so that I can re-enable it easily
later if needed?

No problem, DK and SPF records are already in my DNS records.

I would not recommend using DK (although I do so myself). The toaster
implementation is somewhat broken (signing of outgoing works ok, but
checking incoming sometimes rejects when it shouldn't). DK will eventually
be replaced with DKIM. Check the list archive for the proper way to entirely
disable it.

I would leave SPF turned on (spfbehaviour 3). I would also create an
appropriate SPF TXT record in DNS. That will cut down on backscatter.

Are most folks using or not using DK? It seems to be an endless pain in the
butt. Yet again today, more domains not being allowed to send out because they
can't sign DK.

I don't get the behavior, some domains work, some don't. I'd love to just stop
trying to fuss with DK but I badly need email to get out to hotmail and yahoo,
which, still doesn't make it out after months of trying.

I've read that others don't even have DK or SPF turned on and aren't have any

You've probably gotten to the point where auto-expire of bayes rules is
kicking in. This can take quite a while depending on your hardware. On my
puny PII/266 toaster it takes around 5 minutes.

The bad news is, the default toaster is configured to do this as part of the
smtp session (and thus eventually can time out).

The good news is that it's easy to make auto-expiration happen on its own,
apart from smtp processing:
1) add:
bayes_auto_expire 0
to the end of /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf
2) create a cron job to do expiration daily:
# echo "#!/bin/sh \
>  > /etc/cron.daily/sa-bayes-expire
# echo "sa-learn -u vpopmail --force-expire" \
>  >> /etc/cron.daily/sa-bayes-expire
# echo "chown vpopmail:vchkpw /home/vpopmail/.spamassassin/bayes_toks" \
>  >> /etc/cron.daily/sa-bayes-expire
# chmod 755 /etc/cron.daily/sa-bayes-expire

P.S. You might want to add these to local.cf while you're there:
bayes_auto_learn_threshold_spam 7.0
bayes_auto_learn_threshold_nonspam 0.1
bayes_path /home/vpopmail/.spamassassin/bayes

P.P.S. Step #2 is all that's absolutely necessary to fix the problem, and
you'll probably want to run it right away instead of waiting for 4am to roll
around.

SPF is compiled into and enabled by default in the QMail Toaster. You can 
control the behavior of the SPF function with the numeric value in the 
file /var/qmail/control/spfbehavior. The default value is 3, which is to 
say that:
a) if a domain uses SPF (and you SHOULD), then the SPF rules will be 
enforced

b) if a domain does NOT use SPF, then no blocking will occur.

A complete description of the spfbehavior levels is here: 
http://wiki.qmailtoaster.com/index.php/Spfbehavior


Eventually (when someone decides SPF should be required -- whomever 
"someone" is, I don't know), the number we put in there will climb to a 4 
or 5. But for now, the "agreed upon best use" level is the 3 that the 
toaster puts in there as a default. (NOTE: To turn OFF SPF, just change 
the value to a 0).


NOTE: The value in the /var/qmail/control/spfbehavior can be overwritten 
by the presence of an environment variable SPFBEHAVIOR (if used, it is 
probably being set in your tcp rules file (/etc/tcprules.d/tcp.smtp). So, 
if you change it but nothing happens differently (not sure if a QMail 
restart is required when it changes), then look for the ENV variable.


Another NOTE (and I think this may help someone who a few days ago was 
talking about changing the tcp.smtp file and the changes not working)... 
if you change the contents of /etc/tcprules.d (including the tcp.smtp 
file), you must RE-COMPILE the files to have them take effect. The command 
is simple:

# qmailctl cdb

I hope someone finds this useful

Greylisting is easy with spamdyke. Add the greylist dir path to spamdyke 
conf, then make the greylist dir. Afterwards you make subdirectories for 
each domain (ie example.com). If greylisting doesn't work, you probably 
need to change properties on the dirs you created to allow access.

Re: [qmailtoaster] VQAdmin Problem

Howdy,

I just installed a new server with the QMT-ISO disc and I'm having 
trouble adding a domain to the server with VQAdmin. The install is 
default, but I have done a qtp-restore with data from my old server.


Basically, when I add the domain with VQAdmin, everything looks like it 
works, but then I go back to "view domain" and it says that there is no 
postmaster. Also, there is no directory under /home/vpopmail/domains.


Actually, the more I look at this, I think it is a completely hosed 
install. There is no /var/qmail/control folder like my other install.


I'm not really sure where to start troubleshooting this. Can someone get 
me pointed in the right direction?


I have no idea why you don't have /var/qmail/control. Domainkeys, TLS 
cert (pem) and lots of other stuff go there by default. The HELO string, 
for that matter, is set by a file in that dir.


But I can assure you that adding domains via VQadmin isn't very 
reliable. They should be added from the command line.

Re: [qmailtoaster] Repeated Delivery due to LONG scan times!

Hi,

I've ran into this same problem:

My users have been receiving multiple emails as well.

I can verify that the reason for this behaviour is clamd/spamd as I've
recognized clamd and spamd eating 100 % CPU. After restarting all
qmail related services everything is back to normal and no multiple
messages. This has now happened four times.

I have installed:

spamassassin-toaster-3.2.3-1.3.12
clamav-toaster-0.91.2-1.3.15

These are outdated so I will try upgrading these packages next.
