Re: [qmailtoaster] Re: Installing QMT on CentOS 6.4
Thanks Chandran,
This is a really a good manual and though I did my installation onto the
testing server yesterday, it would be good if this is published on wiki
or something.
Well done putting it all together.

Re: [qmailtoaster] Re: Common Email signature with all mails
I guess we can debate about how useful or useless those disclaimers are. However, just my 2p on this issue: - Let define it: A disclaimer is generally _any statement_ intended to specify or delimit the scope of rights and obligations _that may be exercised and enforced_ by parties in a legally recognized relationship :)) - a legal opinion contains a huge disclaimer as well :) - in several countries there is certain requirement towards how communication can/cannot be conducted: 1. In Germany every bank is putting information about the Board members and names (the same as on every headed paper) 2. In the UK, the FSA regulated companies are putting their FSA registered number and other information in the footer section (the same as on headed paper) - I am a little bit surprised to learn that somebody thought that disclaimer are legally binding. I am not going to discuss the disclaimer on McDonald coffee: Carefully, very hot!. No way. Regards Alex On 25/11/2013 19:24, Dan McAllister wrote: On 11/25/2013 1:11 PM, Eric Shubert wrote: The problem has to do with electronic signatures. Any sort of signing that's done needs to happen after the footer is added. Having the server add a footer would break gpg that's implemented by the client. There might be a suitable way to add a footer on the server for submitted (authenticated) messages that are otherwise unsigned, before adding a DKIM signature. We can certainly look into this at some point, but it's not a priority in my view. Of course, anyone can make it their own priority and write some code to do it. This is after all a community project. P.S. I'd beg to differ that all enterprises implement this at the server, although many of them do. Many of them also run Exchange, which I do not recommend in most cases. ;) P.P.S. There is also some disagreement as to the effectiveness of these disclaimers. Personally, I think they're rather silly (although IANAL). I wonder if there's ever been a case in court where a disclaimer had any effect. To Eric's point: I have a number of financial advisors and insurance agencies that seem to think that these signatures are a requirement (e.g.: requests to bind insurance cannot be made via email, etc.) However, recent legal opinions in several states have held that these signatures cannot be legally binding -- in part because they're being delivered via e-mail, which makes them every bit as unenforceable as the typed of email they're warning against. Never the less, the *professional organizations* still suggest that these disclaimers be present.

Re: [qmailtoaster] Re: Qmailtoaster - CentOS 5 - php53
The issue with php53 admin-toaster can be easily corrected by changing tags in the relevant admin-toaster files.

While I don't think that rpm can handle a Requires: A or B type thing, I should think there's a way to code the spec file(s) such that either one would do. Would someone care to dig a little deeper into this? Ok, so I woke up a little early this morning, and decided to look into this. I found this thread, which covers the topic pretty well: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=717158 The cnt40-deps.sh script (it's been that long since I built my QMT) I have lists php, php-ldap (why? - don't need it), php-mysql and php-pear. Both php and php-pear provide only their 5.1 counterpart. However php-mysql is provided by both php-mysql and php53-mysql. So it looks as though if the *-toaster packages were changed to require php-mysql (whether they actually require it or not) instead of simply php, the dependency would be satisfied by either php or php53 (along with its -mysql counterpart). Does anyone see a problem with this? How have you php53 users on Cos5 gotten around this? Thanks. I am running php53u on a server with QMTISO updated to 5.8. I don't have any issues other than the admin-toaster. It's my understanding that the issue is because of strict tagging in php53 You must start and end your php doc with ?php ... /php? where some flexibility was allowed before.

Re: [qmailtoaster] Re: Search or indexing
Eric, Thanks. Yes, I am running Dovecot - I was sick of Courier dropping all the time on a full body search. Unfortunately, I have become a victim of Apple - iPhone and iPad. There is no full body search capability in either device. However, what I am looking at is a program pulling several e-mails and indexing them so that I can do the searching, say, on the plane. For the iPad I found a program called CloudMagic, but it works with Gmail and Exchange and not Qmailtoaster. I am still experimenting and trying to find the Holly Grail.

The elimination of short tags in PHP5.3 is actually a change (ok, maybe a migration) in the language syntax However, according to some documentation, elimination of short tags may be REQUIRED in the next major revision (PHP6)... there does seem to be some push-back in the PHP community (regarding the deprecation of even allowing short tags - the community appears to strongly favor keeping at least the option available, so I wouldn't be surprised to see it re-enabled as an option...). However, as we (as a computing community) continue to move toward a platform-independent model, we're going to have to live better with other languages (like xml), and thus/as a coding style/, short tags need to be phased out as we maintain our PHP scripts (and templates).

I understand that if in an incoming e-mail spf is set to none, spamedyke let an e-mail in (MX record is Ok) and no Domainkey/DKIM, this is down to spamassassin to decide if this is spam or not. Am I correct? Ref stats - I have my e-mail server sometimes literally bombarded with numerous e-mails and this is where fail2ban comes handy.

Re: [qmailtoaster] Future Distros - RHEL/CentOS ONLY
Eric, Correct me if I am wrong, but the whole qmailtoaster project started with the idea to have RPM packages for a quick deployment under RedHat based OS. Hence, RHEL/CentOS support only should be fine for most people. Personally, I started from RedHat 8 and move to Debian, RHEL, Whitebox and finally CentOS and have been using CentOS for that past ... years. I know if everything fails and I somehow do not have a backup (happened to me before) I can quickly deploy CentOS, dependencies and then qmailtoaster from scratch. Regards Alex On 13/02/2012 18:43, Eric Shubert wrote: I've done a good deal of thinking about this, and think that it'd be best to run it by the community at large (not just the developers) for everyone's consideration. This is not really new, and is not much different than what Jake had committed to some time ago. I just want to be sure that everyone is on board with this, and explain a few things. Due to various changes in the IT landscape over the past several years, I think it's best that future QMT development be limited to the RHEL/CentOS platform. There are several factors involved. First is that we'll be changing the method of distribution from source rpms to binary rpms, using yum to install packages (qtp-newmodel will be modified accordingly). We can do this because the qmail (et al) licensing was changed to public domain a couple years ago, so there is no restriction to distribute source-only any more. We also have mirrors in place that eliminate the need to have a single distribution point with high bandwidth capability. Using binary rpms for distribution not only simplifies installs and upgrades, but it also substantially reduces the disk space required, in addition to making QMT more secure due to the absence of a compiler and build tools. All in all, this is a win-win change. Secondly, the industry in general is moving toward virtual hosts, and QMT is making this move as well (many of us already run QMT as one or more VM guests). One of the advantages of virtualization is that multiple machines can coexist on the same host hardware, concurrently running entirely different operating systems and versions of languages and software. There's little need any more for QMT to coexist on the same machine with other applications or services. In fact, things are moving in a direction such that QMT itself will become divided into logical roles that will be able to implemented on separate hosts, allowing for more flexible and scalable QMT configurations. Stay tuned for that development, which is a ways off yet. So let's take a look briefly at the prominent distros that QMT will be discontinuing. Mandriva is on the ropes, struggling to survive. If you presently have a QMT running on Mandy, I would seriously consider a migration in the near future. SUSE does not use yum, it has yast instead. When I looked at yast some time ago it had no CLI, which was a big drawback to me. While I expect that yum could be installed and used, it goes against the When in Rome philosophy. The source rpms will of course continue to be available, so if someone cares to adapt them for SUSE, they may do so. While Fedora contains a great deal of what's in store for future RHEL/CentOS releases, it's not well suited as a QMT platform, simply because it changes too often (a new release twice a year), and most often none of the changes provide any benefit to QMT. If there happens to be something that would benefit QMT, it would most likely be available for RHEL/CentOS in the EPEL repo. So there is really no sense in packaging QMT for Fedora. I think this covers the distros worth mentioning. If I missed one, please let me know. In summary, going forward QMT will be available only on RHEL/CentOS platforms, for both x86 and x86_64 architectures. This will simplify spec files, documentation and installation/utility scripts substantially. For all other distros, the existing build options in the spec files will no longer be included. They will however be archived in a source code repository before being removed, so that they'll be available should anyone want to reference them at some point in the future. If you have a problem with or question about any of this, or you'd simply like to comment about something, please don't hesitate to reply.

Re: [qmailtoaster] Re: Whitelist_from SpamAssassin Blackberry (BIS)
Eric, Very often there might be a typo in the local.cf and then spamassassin does not understand it. My suggestion was not to whitelist all blackberry users, but try to see if the format was a problem, i.e. the process of elimination one by one. Perhaps I should have suggested /spamassassin --lint/ to check the syntaxes of local.cf instead. Rgds Alex On 01/12/2011 17:03, Eric Shubert wrote: Carlos, I think perhaps you're using the wrong hammer on this one. Whitelisting all blackberry users might open the door a little too wide, unless *all* emails from blackberry devices are being tagged as spam. I doubt this is happening, but you haven't described the problem that you're trying to rememdy here. Have you examined the headers for emails that are not spam but are being tagged? Which SA rules are firing that are inappropriate? It might be a better solution to adjust your SA scoring to achieve the results you're looking for. Just a thought. P.S. It's generally a good idea to ask for suggested solutions to a given problem, rather than how to implement a solution to a problem that has not been described. ;)

Re: [qmailtoaster] Re: Email to root (alias)
Eric, I do not want external users to be able to send e-mail to r...@mydomain.com. Only internal users or services can do that and this is why I liked the idea of /var/qmail/alias/ Rgds Alex On 16/08/2011 18:59, Eric Shubert wrote: I have a hunch about this. I continue to be unclear about virtual vs system users, and the differences between 'native' qmail and vpopmail. It seems to me however that the aliases/ method is native, as this is not used when defining forwards with qmailadmin. My hunch is that perhaps native mechanisms (alias/forwarding in this case) do not always work in conjunction with virtual (ie vpopmail) accounts. You might try testing this theory by trying to forward a message using the aliases/ mechanism to a system user account. My guess is that this might work, although it doesn't solve your problem. I've avoided this whole area by making all of my email accounts virtual. I also have a forward defined in qmailadmin from root to an existing virtual account. I'm not positive this takes effect, as I have changed most root emails to another address. I do believe this works though. Have you tried using qmailadmin to create a forward from root to postmaster? Is there some reason why not?

Re: [qmailtoaster] automatic Filtering e-mail into folders
Jake, Just a question. I watched your video, which is brilliant. Thanks very much for that. However, is there any GUI to use with maildrop please? I cannot spend my time for every user to set-up filters. I need something simple like in Squirrelmail so that every user can do it himself.

Re: [qmailtoaster] Re: Qmail and squirrelmail query
I suggested Linode! I used to run Qmail on 384Mb RAM VPS on the Linode, but it was not easy as SpamAssassin took most of RAM so VPS had to be rebooted several times. Right now I run Qmail on two VPSs 512Mb and 768Mb with ClamAV and SpamAssassin without any issues. If you have a huge traffic (=1000 e-mails a day) I'd suggest to go for 768Mb RAM.

Someone suggested the Linode and that looks good, VPSLink is one I've used, You need 512Mb once Clam and SpamAssassin start working.

I'm sure Jake would welcome the help. As Martin suggested, we'd love to see you on the devel list. You can - in the Fedora 13 case, substitute in yum install spamassassin with little difficulty, basically install the package, it pulls in what it needs, then create the scripts to run under daemontools. Jake's been working on trying to use the upstream packages as much as possible. I'm sure he would welcome some help with this. Unfortunately, that won't help with getting SA3.3.1 into COS5.x though. There's probably a fairly decent reason though why RH hasn't brought SA3.3.x into v5.x. OTOH, SA3.3.1 *is* in the rpmforge-extras repo for CentOS5, so it could be had from there. The clamav is harder, but I have it running, though untested. The end aim is just to let the rpm system update clam, rather than having to recompile to src rpm In the meantime, Jake's been very good at keeping clamav-toaster up to date. That package is easily updated with qtp-newmodel. It does take some time to compile, but qtp-newmodel allows that to happen while your QMT is still online. so why is that so bad ? It's not. As previously mentioned, QMTv2 will be yum-able. :) well the toaster works fine on a VM with 20Gb HDD and 512k ram but to recompile the clam package you have to stop the services to free up memory ... so having a recipe for utilizing then yum package is nice ... My QMT is a VM w/ 512M RAM (I think you meant 512M, not 512k), and I have no problem building clamav-toaster on it using qtp-newmodel. # free total used free sharedbuffers cached Mem:514908 399284 115624 0 27004 117636 -/+ buffers/cache: 254644 260264 Swap: 1044216 721044144 Perhaps there's something in your Fedora configuration that's causing a problem there? Do you have ample swap available? which brings you back to your argument, Fedora 13 will only have a short life for clamav updates via yum BL, it might be possible that going with Fedora is causing as much of a problem as it's solving. I'm all for getting SA up to current on COS5. I think that if you were to use the rpmforge-extras repo along with a little help from the devel list, you can achieve your objectives while helping the community as well. I expect that you'd also free up some time to do other things, besides updating your Fedora release every 6 months. ;) David Bray http://www.brayworth.com.au da...@brayworth.com.au Thanks for your help with this David. I really don't mean to beat you up at all. I'm just trying to help you the best I can, and look forward to your continued participation in the community. Not everything is perfect with QMT, I would agree, but at the same time: it works! And as Eric pointed out, CentOS / RHEL 5.x is the most current version of the recommended OS for QMT. Jake is working on QMTv2 which will incorporate some changes and it will actually address some of the things you mention (like an option to just install binary packages instead of compile from source). That being said, if you'd like to help with QMT, please join the qmailtoaster-devel list as well!

Re: [qmailtoaster] Best Spam Practices
What I did personally was going through /opt/spamdyke/etc/spamdyke.conf as well as other settings like blacklist_recipients adding your own e-mail(s) and read www.spamdyke.org fine tuning some settings. This has eliminated almost 95-99% of all spam. You can also fine tune SpamAssassin by lowering score and/or changing other settings.

Whitelist a Sender or Domain in SpamAssassin
To whitelist individual addresses or domains in SpamAssassin:
* Open //etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf/ in your favorite editor for
system-wide whitelisting.
o To whitelist only for yourself, open
/~/.spamassassin/user_prefs/.
* Append whitelist_from_rcvd {address or domain you want to
whitelist preceded by *@} {domain name which must be present in
the Received: headers}.
o To whitelist all About newsletters, for example, type
whitelist_from_rcvd *...@about.com about.com.
The second parameter of /whitelist_from_rcvd/, a domain name which must
be present in the /Received:/ header lines, is some prevention against
spammers easily getting past SpamAssassin by using an email address at a
commonly whitelisted domain.

Re: [qmailtoaster] disable mx check in chkuser
Regardless Jake's answer, I would suggest you do it on a test server/VPS first.

I think you can disable chkuser only for entire server. Regards Alex If it's enabled during compilation, then it's enabled for chkuser in all instances. You can either leave it on, or turn it off for the entire server by modifying the code during compilation. There has been some talk of overrides in the tcp.smtp file for options such as this, but I have not dug into the chkuser code nor tried this myself, so I cannot say for sure it will not work - Qmailtoaster is sponsored by Vickers Consulting Group (www.vickersconsulting.com) Vickers Consulting Group offers Qmailtoaster support and installations.
