[qmailtoaster] Clamd and spamassassin-toaster can we stop these
Dear List, I am having a server in which Qmtiso 1.4.0 is installed. In this version of iso, the clamd and spamassassin-toaster are out dated. I am having a Spamtitan server which filters all mails to my qmail server. So i dont need the clamd and spamassassin-toaster to filter my mails. Is there any way to stop these two. Because clamd is taking 100% of cpu. Some times server is not accepting tha mails to send. But the ports 587 and 110 are open. I am attaching the setup of the servers with this mail.

Since spamhaus used by itself was causing rejections to my at home dynamic users it seemed strange that spamhaus was blocking my dynamic users but it was not blocking them when run with spamdyke. Since I don't fully understand the internals, I was asking about that specifically so I don't screw up my at home users. Let me see if I can explain this. You don't need port 587 with spamdyke because spamdyke turns off all of its filtering if the connection (sender) authenticates successfully. On the other hand, rblsmtpd is oblivious to authentication, so it rejects connections which might otherwise be able to authenticate. It's simply a weakness in the rblsmtpd program. And I believe it is true, that if I have dynamic IP users, and I'm using spamhaus by itself, then I do require port 587. Isn't that true? Not exactly. It's the combination of rblsmtpd and spamhaus which requires you to use port 587. spamhaus with spamdyke is ok on port 25. So it's more the case of the use of rblsmtpd (with certain blocklists which block dynamic addresses) which requires the use of port 587. And again if I have dynamic IP users, and I'm using spamdyke which includes spamhaus, then I don't need to use 587. Is that right? Yes, for the most part. I hate to split hairs, but in this case it might be appropriate. Regarding for the most part, spamdyke doesn't necessarily (or really) include spamhaus. If you'd have said I'm using spamdyke *with* spamhaus, that would be (slightly) clearer. You can use spamdyke with or without spamhaus (or any other RBL). Using spamhaus (and a few others) is highly recommended though. Thanks again, I'm just trying to be clear. No problem. I hope I can help you understand how it works.

Before I learned of this port 587, my only option was to disable spamhaus. And all I did to disable it was to remove it from my /var/qmail/control/blacklists file. So, the other day I needed some addition reporting and I remembered the toaster plus, so I downloaded the Repo and ran the yum install for it. I then also decided to run the spamdyke filter. So, now that I've realized that port 587 is available for my users to send on, I went back to add the spamhaus. However, it's no longer in the /var/qmail/supervise/smtp/run file.

Add this line to your dot-qmail. | /your/path/to/openticket.pl What exactly we should do in our QMT? Or is there any other ticket tracking softwares which are more compatible to QMT?

Re: [qmailtoaster] Clamd and spamassassin-toaster can we stop these
The only problem per se is that your cpu is running constantly, and slowing everything down considerably. Did that clamav come back after you rebooted? If so I guess you'll need to upgrade clamav-toaster, even though you're not actually using it. I'm not sure what exactly is wrong with that version that causes clamav to eat the cpu. Upgrading is a lot simpler than trying to remove clamav entirely. senthil vel wrote: Thanks Eric, after editing the /var/qmail/control/simcontrol as follows, :clam=no,spam=no,spam_hits=12,attach=.mp3:.src:.bat:.pif The mails are going out without any problem.

Re: [qmailtoaster] Ticketing System
Hi, I need to let you know up front that I'm not one of the qmail masters on here, nor do I know your phpsupport program. But, a file called '.qmail-support' suggests that you have or need to create an email user called [EMAIL PROTECTED]. Then you'll have or need to create the file called .qmail-support. In my installations, there are no .qmail-username files created automatically. When you create it, put it in the same directory as your .qmail-default. A .qmail-username file is used to process other commands for that one email account only. And not for everyone. So with some users, they may not have a .qmail-username. But for this program, you would create .qmail-support and put the lines into it as suggested by that program. Also, their instructions you listed, presume that your ticketing support program is installed on the same server as your qmail.
