Re: [qmailtoaster] Strange Dovecot Issue
After changing over to Dovecot IMAP last night (using the instructions on the wiki exactly), some of my users are now unable to log into their email accounts using an email client (right now Outlook 2007 and Apple Mail program). Webmail does not seem to be effected. Here is the dovecot log message that I am getting that seems out of place. I configured my Mac using the Apple Mail program, and I get the same message. I am using the standard (non-ssl) IMAP ports. 05-14 09:13:37 imap-login: Info: Disconnected (tried to use disabled plaintext auth) If I change over my Apple Mail client to use SSL, I can access my qmail accounts and all is well. Any ideas? Scott Have a look in: /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf Is: Disable_Plaintext_Auth = no ?

Thanks Aleksander for the reply.
I am just using PLAIN - no TLS and no SSL. This setup worked great
under Courrier IMAP. Just a simple IMAP port 143 setup for my
clients.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated! Having no luck with
Google searches.

I described migration from Courier to Dovecot on this mailing list, in
thread ,,Dovecot howto''. Default configuration in source package from
atrpms has plain authentication mechanism. Before compilation you have
to enable vpopmail (first patch) to spec file.
About authentication: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Authentication/Mechanisms
Migration: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Migration/Courier
Source package: http://atrpms.net/dist/el5/dovecot/
Second my patch integrates dovecot with QMT.
Build package as root (access to vpopmail libs), apply config patch and
enjoy. :)
Attention, my config patch is for 64 bits architecture. For 32 bits
compilation modify path in 2 lines starting with mail_plugin_dir -
remove ,,64''!

Re: [qmailtoaster] Re: Redirect all postmaster accounts to one postmaster
Le vendredi 14 mai 2010 à 09:36 -0700, Eric Shubert a écrit : Hey Pierre. Welcome to the list. You can use the qmailadmin web app to do this. Simply edit the postmaster account, and in the Routing section select Forward To: and fill in your master postmaster's address. If you're looking to do this with a script of some sort (you do have quite a few domains), I don't know off hand what happens under the covers to make this happen. I think it's probably in the .qmail file for the postmaster. Having a look at the .qmail file before and after making the change in qmailadmin should verify this. I'm guessing that by the time you figure out how do do this using a script of some sort, you probably could've had it done using qmailadmin. Please let us know how you decide to tackle this. Hi, Thanks for your response. You're right, I would have already done it if I had use qmailadmin, but it's a bit boring and it won't help me get to know qmail better. Besides, I'm trying to respect a unix/linux golden rule: if you have to do it twice, script it! :-) What I will is to do that from qmailadmin for one domain, check out what .qmail file was generated and adapt this to the other domains. I know this is something basic and understandind the .qmail file functioning will allow me to do more complicated things like automatically sorting spam into the Junk folder without the need to configure my email client. This would be great for users checking their mails with POP3 and using the webmail when away from work. I'll post back as soon as I find the solution!

Re: [qmailtoaster] Re: Strange Dovecot Issue
All, what does it take to put a known-to-work source tarball together with the steps in the wiki to create a source rpm? I have not dealt with package creation so far, but I think that would be the logical next step. If anyone can give any pointers, I'd volunteer to do this. Martin PS: Almost forgot. I also switched to dovecot based on the wiki page and I love it. Definite improvement.

[qmailtoaster] Certs
I am interested in obtaining a real certificate for my mail server. I have signed up with StartCom (http://cert.startcom.org/) for a free one. They appear to be the most recognized of the free services. My question is this: How do I go about applying this to my QMT setup? StartCom gave me two things: 1) A private key cert 2) the actual key cert (I think). They suggested saving the files as ssl.key and ssl.crt respectively. Never having done anything like this before, I put the .crt file in place of the servercert.pem file with no luck. Scott
[qmailtoaster] Server changes
Yet ANOTHER weekend of issues. The data center that I was getting the QMT server from (cheaply!) decided to pull the plug on the server since it was killing their bandwidth and causing them grief with customers that pay much more than I did. SO, I have moved the web page and mail to new servers. This was a very hastily implemented change, so expect some issues for a few days (rDNS on the mail server being incorrect, etc.). It will also take me a couple days to get things like QTP back up and running, since I must figure out how to get the files from the old server without any access to it. At this point the qmailtoaster.com website should be up and running, along with the mirrors for package downloads (the mirrors never had an issue), and email should be back up. Now I need to go find some PC133 RAM for the mail server - the 256M in it will not be enough... Anyway, bear with me a couple days. Once this move is complete, all of the QMT resources (with the exception of the mirrors, which are distributed anyway) will be on servers that I pay for SLAs with.
