Moving the user database
I'd like to move my user and domains database which runs vpopmail-4.9.10 to a new computer running vpopmail-5.0. I use the default user/domain storing facility in vpopmail-4.9.10 (I do not use any mysql or ldap database backend). User/domain/mails/passwords seems to be in ~vpopmail/domains so I'd like to know if moving the domain file hierarchie will be enough to move all vpopmail data ? This is the protocol I have planned : 1) stop qmail-smtpd 2) stop qmail-pop3d 3) stop qmailadmin et vqadmin (httpd stop) 4) wait for the qmail-queue to be empty 5) copy ~qmail/control to the new mailserver 6) move ~vpopmail/domains to the new mailserver 7) shut down the old mailserver 8) change the ip address of the new mailserver to match the old address. 9) take a beer. Does this protocol seems correct ? What is ~vpopmail/users ? Thank you.

vpopmail + maildrop + sqwebmail + qmail :)
Hi everyone. I've been a silent reader of this list some months from now, and a regular vpopmail user almost 2 years from now. So far I haven't had a single problem with my setups, which are composed by qmail+vpopmail+sqwebmail. Now, I'm building a system which, appart from every feature the old one had, would give also the ability to create filters via WWW (sqwebmail). The short story: qmail-1.03 vpopmail-4.9.10 sqwebmail (support for vpopmail auth) maildrop-1.3.4 To give my users the ability to filter their own email, I created the following structure: (in this case, this user's virtual home is in ...domain.com/0/user, but to some of them their home is ...domain.com/user). ~vpopmail/domains/test.com/0/user/.qmail contains: | maildrop /svcs/vpopmail/domains/test.com/0/test/Maildir/.maildirfilter And /svcs/vpopmail/domains/test.com/0/test/Maildir/maildirfilterconfig contains: MAILDIRFILTER=/svcs/vpopmail/domains/test.com/0/test/Maildir/.maildirfilter MAILDIR=/svcs/vpopmail/domains/test.com/0/test/Maildir As per sqwebmail's instructions, I login via sqwebmail and click on the Save Rules option, which creates a file named .maildirfilter in /svcs/vpopmail/domains/test.com/0/test/Maildir/ . Its content is as follows: #MFMAILDROP=2 # # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE. This is an automatically generated filter. FROM='' to /svcs/vpopmail/domains/test.com/0/test/Maildir/. This is what the logs show after sending a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Oct 6 18:29:10 zbr qmail: 1002389350.013670 new msg 1102032 Oct 6 18:29:10 zbr qmail: 1002389350.013774 info msg 1102032: bytes 3150 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] qp 5949 uid 513 Oct 6 18:29:10 zbr qmail: 1002389350.088228 starting delivery 706: msg 1102032 to local [EMAIL PROTECTED] Oct 6 18:29:10 zbr qmail: 1002389350.088326 status: local 2/10 remote 0/20 Oct 6 18:29:10 zbr qmail: 1002389350.088355 delivery 705: success: did_0+0+1/ Oct 6 18:29:10 zbr qmail: 1002389350.088384 status: local 1/10 remote 0/20 Oct 6 18:29:10 zbr qmail: 1002389350.088410 end msg 1102031 Oct 6 18:29:10 zbr qmail: 1002389350.198989 new msg 1102031 Oct 6 18:29:10 zbr qmail: 1002389350.199090 info msg 1102031: bytes 3248 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] qp 5955 uid 513 Oct 6 18:29:10 zbr qmail: 1002389350.267236 starting delivery 707: msg 1102031 to local [EMAIL PROTECTED] Oct 6 18:29:10 zbr qmail: 1002389350.267334 status: local 2/10 remote 0/20 Oct 6 18:29:10 zbr qmail: 1002389350.267364 delivery 706: success: did_0+0+1/ Oct 6 18:29:10 zbr qmail: 1002389350.267392 status: local 1/10 remote 0/20 This goes on and on, forming a loop. Just after I delete the corresponding .qmail file (the one in /user/), the message gets delivered. In the message headers, I see a LONG list of: Return-Path: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Received: (qmail 9369 invoked by uid 513); 6 Oct 2001 23:10:28 - Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Received: (qmail 9362 invoked by uid 513); 6 Oct 2001 23:10:28 - Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Received: (qmail 9354 invoked by uid 513); 6 Oct 2001 23:10:27 - Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Note that this isn't really a filter, although it is one by definition - it just tries to deliver the email to this user's Maildir. One other piece of information: I am NOT running maildrop as the default MDA - I'm just running it in every user's .qmail file (YES, it's a pain but this way I control whose users are able to filter email). Any help is greatly appreciated. Ricardo Manuel Oliveira
lastauth table in Vpop5
Anyone else notice that the lastauth table in 5.0 (maybe anything after 4.9.10 too...) doesn't use a nice timestamp anymore? It used to be human readable format, now it's ticks... or have I screwed something up during install? No big deal, just wondering why it changed - or more importantly - if I screwed up.

Writing a new vauth.c
I was going to use vsybase, but it's not up to date. That's ok, because it's not exactly what I need anyways. I'm looking to create a read-only interface to MSSQL (running against the Platypus database). The new module will be vplatypus.c For delivery and POP/IMAP/Sqwebmail authentication, do I need to implement anything other than vauth_getpw()? All other functions would just return 0. If I fail to connect to the database, what do I need to return in order to trigger a deferral? From what I've been able to see in the vmysql.c code, I'm thinking that I should set verrori to VA_NO_AUTH_CONNECTION and return(NULL). Is this correct? Last, because of the database schema, there is no crypted password. Is this ok, or do I need to go ahead and create one from the clear text password? If so, will this work? pwent.pw_passwd = crypt(pwent.pw_clear_passwd,'xx'); Many thanks, -- Troy Settle Pulaski Networks 540.994.4254 - 866.477.5638 http://www.psknet.com
