[qmailtoaster] catchall delete logs
hi everyone, is there a way to better improve logging of catchall deleted e-mails? in the log it shows that it has been delivered which should say that it was deleted because it doesn't exist. also if it is going to delete the e-mail anyway why does it have to go through simscan? can it be delete at smtp level? - QmailToaster hosted by: VR Hosted http://www.vr.org - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[qmailtoaster] catchall settings questions

The delete one makes it accept all and just trash it. change it to bounce-no-mailbox and it will work as expected. JP This brings up the point about whether we should be deleting or bouncing messages. I don't bounce messages because I feel it gives email name harvesters a confirmation of which mailboxes are valid (they don't bounce). I was just thinking that I may be defeating the purpose of chkuser Questions: 1) Does using the delete setting in any way interfere with the chkuser options on setting the number of invalid rcpts? 2) At what point are the messages getting deleted? -- are they being scanned for clam and spamd? I wonder if it only deletes when it clears the scans and delivery is attempted 3) If chkuser is bouncing then simscan wouldn't ever be called, but is that the case with the delete setting on the catchall? (sort of related to #1) Feel free to ask other questions and discuss what would work best. George S.
Re: [qmailtoaster] Catchall
I'm not familiar with that version of qmailadmin. The 1.3 toaster version allows you to specify which account is used for catchall. There is no option (that I see) for bouncing catchall. I would try turning off catchall bounced, and set postmaster as catchall account.

Should I mark any account as a catchall account or by default it is set to some account ?? I just saw that the postmaster account was not set as a catchall account.

[qmailtoaster] Catchall
Hi all, Could someone please elaborate what the Catchall option does ?? Recently I had changed catchall to deleted. I think from that time, chkuser was not rejecting mails to non existant users ...

Re: [qmailtoaster] Catchall
So what happens if Catchall is set to bounced...It seems that when it is set ot bounced, it bounces the mails. But when set to deleted, it seems to be accepting mails.. The reason why I set it to deleted was that I was getting double bounces to the postmaster account. I basically want to stop that.

The catchall account gets all the emails that are not destined for a valid user. I could send an email to a fake address at your domain, and the catchall would receive it. - QmailToaster hosted by: VR Hosted http://www.vr.org - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - QmailToaster hosted by: VR Hosted http://www.vr.org - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I believe that delete is for those who do not want to send confirmations back to spammers and what not. It takes the email, but then deletes it, sending no message back to the sender. Bounce on the other hand, does send a message back to the sender, letting them know the email address was invalid (read: sorry spammer, that was not a real email, try again!). Unless the functionality has change since last time I looked at it And that was a while ago. - QmailToaster hosted by: VR Hosted http://www.vr.org - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
