Re: [qmailtoaster] QControl 1.0 has been released!

If you'd like to see this functionality in it, email us at the support link on the website. We are not going to offer support for the application on the mailing list. And yes, when you check an individual mailbox, it currently shows the clear text password. - QmailToaster hosted by: VR Hosted http://www.vr.org - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[qmailtoaster] Two-stage filtering?
I'm currently using 2 (for redundancy) QmailToaster boxes to filter in front of an Exchange server. They are not currently configured with taps. Management has expressed some concern because we are unable to retrieve messages that have been blocked. I have some questions about taps. Taps won't see messages that are blocked by chkuser or spamdyke, right? I am considering implementing a two-stage approach. The first box in line will do no filtering, it will simply copy each incoming message via a tap on the domain and forward to the next stage. Tapped messages will be deleted via a cron job after 7 days. The second stage will filter with chkuser, spamdyke, spamassassin, clamav, etc., more aggressively than what we currently implement before sending mail on to Exchange. Is this a good approach? Are there any gotchas I should be looking out for?

Some PHBs just don't get it. ;) I take it you've experienced cases of legitimate email being rejected? What was the cause of rejection in those cases? Perhaps you're using an RBL that's a bit too tight. If a legitimate sender is unable to send to you you, they should be able to contact you in other ways to let you know of the problem, which typically is on their end. If they continue to have things misconfigured on their (the sending) end, you can always whitelist them if necessary. I have some questions about taps.

[qmailtoaster] Toaster on Debian
Hi there, I am new to the list and looking for hints and tips to install this toaster on Debian? Also, I am no programmer, but still willing to help. (be it testing or translating, etc.) Can anyone give me pointers where to start? I saw that some people obviously have done some work creating .deb packages? Thanks for your help!

Re: [qmailtoaster] Toaster on Debian
I will be working with a few different people. The final support list is going to be very different. The ISP, Lightspeed Wireless (of Ohio) has provided me with a 64-bit build host. This means that we can start moving forward.

RE: [qmailtoaster] Toaster on Debian
Most of the packages are available for (insert your favorite Distro here). Debian, like most others have the various packages. Its just that Qmail Toaster as discussed on this list typically pertains to the one for CentOS. There are plenty of mail toasters out there based on qmail, but for some reason not called Qmail Toaster. For example, the one I usually used was just referred to as a Mail Toaster, and it had basically all the same packages as this one, but it was for FreeBSD. What makes all these packages run on various OSs is just someone taking the time to make sure packages work out of the box, and provide some sort of scripting to tie everything together. Doing a quick search, it looks like Bill's Linux Qmail Toaster at http://www.shupp.org/toaster/ is in fact Debian based. Not sure how old it is though. Personally, I typically use FreeBSD or Debian. However, I do find that CentOS is ALOT easier to use, as things just work. So if you want a tested, hassle free mail server, I'd suggest using this one just as it is, via the ISO, or even VMWare image if you don't want to manually install everything. (I went with the VMWare image a few days ago, and am playing with it now). My apologies for not providing a valid answer, and perhaps an attempt to steer away from Debian for this particular application. Just stating that as a Debian user (at least on the Linux side), I found the switch to CentOS for this application very painless, as the system still looks and feels just like one of my Debian systems.

Re: [qmailtoaster] Toaster on Debian
Thanks everyone for your answers. In fact, the last toaster I installed was Bill Shupp's outline, but I had trouble updating some of the portions to current versions - most notably clamav, simscan and spamassassin, so I started to look around for other approaches.
