[vchkpw] Cost To Get Postgresql Support In Vpopmail
I've been waiting a long time for Postgresql support in Vpopmail. Apparently it exists, but there is no autoconf support for it right now. I don't have the expertise necessary to write what is needed, otherwise I would. So how much would it cost to get someone with the experience necessary to finish up what has already been started? We are just a tiny company right now, but might be willing to pay for the cost of development. Maybe there are other companies out there that also need Postgresql support in Vpopmail and would be willing to partner on the costs of development... Jay Tortorelli

Re: [vchkpw] many-domains=n large-site=y courier-imap problem
Ok... I recompiled courier-imap, and now I can authenticate with [EMAIL PROTECTED], but I compiled vpopmail with --enable-ip-alias-domains=y. I should be able to authenticate with just 'user', right? I also did a vipmap -a 206.30.x.x mydomain.com. When I run vipmap without any arguments it returns what I inputed. Also, I can telnet mydomain.com 143 and I get my courier server's greeting, so I know it's running. Any ideas?

Re: [vchkpw] many-domains=n large-site=y courier-imap problem
As far as I remember, many-domains=n and many-domains=y work with different tables. So, when switching from "n" to "y" you should also convert the database to the new format. This is one of the switches you select with the first installation, and then you never change (usually).

Re: [vchkpw] Qmail AntiSpaming
Hi Mat, I find it works great running spamassassin from the .qmail-default file. That way domains that want it can have it and those that don't do not have to.

[vchkpw] patch for vpopmail 5.3.8 for .qmailadmin-limits
Hi,
I mentioned this awhile back, but didn't have the
cycles to create a diff file. I finally had the time
so here it is... I've been using this in version 5.2
and even back in 4.9.6.
I've attached a diff file to add the functions
int vget_limits( char *domain, struct vlimits *limits )
int vset_limits( char *domain, struct vlimits *limits )
int vdel_limits( char *domain )
to the vpopmail library. These maintain either the
raw file .qmailadmin-limits or will maintain the limits
in a MySQL database. The items supported are:
struct vlimits {
int maxpopaccounts;
int maxaliases;
int maxforwards;
int maxautoresponders;
int maxmailinglists;
int diskquota;
int defaultquota;
short disablepop;
short disableimap;
short disabledialup;
short disablepasswordchanging;
short disablewebmail;
short disablerelay;
};
I haven't included the changes to qmailadmin that I use,
nor the changes to vdelivermail (for domain quota).
diskquota is the current quota for a domain.
defaultquota is the default quota for new users of this domain.
The other items I believe are self explanatory.
The config is updated so you would call --enable-mysql-limits as
an option to configure.
Hopefully you'll find this useful.

Excellent! I've been wanting to add this functionality to vpopmail
for a long time. Nice work, clean api.
I'll try to get them added to the next devel release.

[vchkpw] no HOST environment variable
Hello list... A some days ago I did a question but I did not get any comments/idea I have installed. qmail + vpopmail 5.3.8 + maildrop 1.4.0 When a use maildrop to filter the email I get the message: Hi. This is the qmail-send program at conectanetcafe.net I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses. This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: vdelivermail: no HOST environment varilable --- Below this line is a copy of the message. -- fin error message -- When I remove maildrop from .qmail-default file I do not get the message. I did some changes in the maildrop filter, I write in the fil that must show the HOST variable... sorprise... the HOME and EXT variables were catched but the HOST was empty... Any idea??? o suggestion??? Best regards. Jose Morales __ Do you Yahoo!? Faith Hill - Exclusive Performances, Videos & More http://faith.yahoo.com

If the Maildir doesn't yet exist it won't be able to write the file. vpopbull doesn't automatically create Maildir directories for users that have not had a directory assigned to them. The problem is that the user has a directory assigned to it, because une of the features of vpopmail is the auto dir creation if u add a record in mysql, so I think this vpopmail feature should be implemented into vpopbull too No ?

Re: [vchkpw] Getting a list of all mailboxes and their size?
No such command exists, but a simple shell script should do the trick. Use vuserinfo to list all the users, parse out the user's directory from the output and check the size of the directory.

[vchkpw] vpopmail ignoring .qmail files in extended dirs ?
Hi, I am wondering if this issue we have is a vpopmail issue or, something else. The problem is that with domains that have > 100 users, it seems vpopmail is ignoring the .qmail-username. On all our domains with < 100 users, our setup for tmda with vpopmail works like a charm. With domains that have greater than 100 users, you have a dir structure like, /usr/local/vopmail/domains/domain.org/B/.qmail-username Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Lanny
[vchkpw] default domain question
Hi, I installed latest qmail and vpopmail straight from the FreeBSD ports. My machine's non resolvable hostname is mail.nefilim.org. I did a vanilla qmail install from the ports and a vpopmail install using: #make install WITH_PASSWD=yes WITH_IP_ALIAS=yes WITH_QMAIL_EXT=yes \ DEFAULT_DOMAIN=mail.nefilim.org It installed without any problems. Added a couple of my friends' domains to it. One virtualdomain is nefilim.dyndns.org. If I want to set nefilim.dyndns.org to be my DEFAULT_DOMAIN, what should I do? Can I do a "make reinstall" using FBSD's ports? I'm fairly new to this so any help would be appreciated. Thank you. Ron Santos

[vchkpw] Getting a list of all mailboxes and their size?
Is there a vpopmail command for listing all the mailboxes in a domain along with their size? All I need is the mailbox username and its current size. Thanks Brendan
Re: [vchkpw] Getting a list of all mailboxes and their size?
Most situations would be fine with this, however, the reason I stated my method, rather than the alternative, is because some people specify other directories to add domains into. >From the vadddomain usage: -u user (sets the uid/gid based on a user in /etc/passwd) -d dir (sets the dir to use for this domain) -i uid (sets the uid to use for this domain) -g gid (sets the gid to use for this domain) John Johnson wrote: > > would it not be easy to use the du command on ~/vpopmail/domains/ > > -John > > -Original Message- > From: vol [mailto:vol] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, October 17, 2002 3:47 PM > To: Brendan McAlpine > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [vchkpw] Getting a list of all mailboxes and their size? > > No such command exists, but a simple shell script > should do the trick. > > Use vuserinfo to list all the users, parse out the user's directory from > the output and check the size of the directory. > > Brendan McAlpine wrote: > > > > Is there a vpopmail command for listing all the mailboxes in a domain > > along with their size? > > > > All I need is the mailbox username and its current size. > > > > Thanks > > > > Brendan > > -- > mailto:vol@;inter7.com > Matt Brookings - Chief Technical Officer > Inter7 Internet Technologies, Inc. > www.inter7.com - 847-492-0470 > Prices at http://www.inter7.com/prices -- mailto:vol@;inter7.com Matt Brookings - Chief Technical Officer Inter7 Internet Technologies, Inc. www.inter7.com - 847-492-0470 Prices at http://www.inter7.com/prices

[vchkpw] qmail, vpopmail, ezmlm & me
hello folks, I have qmail & vpopmail happily playing together, but sadly, ezmlm is coming between them. Following the ezmlm install instruction all seems well until I try to -send- a test msg on a test list. I am aware that vpopmail doesn't concern itself with getting mail out of my machine, but I do ask you who concern yourselves with vpopmail if there is a potential hazard here that can be addressed. -- Steve Mallett | [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://OSDir.com on the O'Reilly Network http://opensource.org | [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://open5ource.net
[vchkpw] Everything is sent back to Return Path
I am a complete newbie at this I don't know where to start testing. I have 3 Virtual domains, I did have 2 working then I added a 3rd domain yesterday and now the last two domains I added all the e-mail I send from the internet get delivered to the return-path. My qmail log shows nothing has been recieved. Can someone please give me some starters to where to look. I used vqadmin to add the domains and they look identical.

If your qmail does not receive these messages it can't deliver them correctly, so somebody else seems to intercept them.
