[vchkpw] vmoduser question
Hi, I would like to setup quota for every user in the domain xxx.ss. Could I use vmoduser -q 20MB xxx.ss? Is this 20MB for every user? thanks bird
[vchkpw] forwarding a while domain regardless of users
I have a client asking me to act as a sort of bypass for their mail. I have spam and virus checking installed using spamassassin and trophie, and need to forward all users that come in addressed to a certain domain to another. They add and delete up to 20 users a day, but they don't want to have to add and delete them on their server *and* on my server. i.e., I receive a mail for [EMAIL PROTECTED], and I need to forward it to [EMAIL PROTECTED], but I can't have vpopmail look to see if [EMAIL PROTECTED] exists on my server - it just needs to know that this.com exists, and all users are valid for that domain. The client will handle that on their mailserver when I forward them the mail. Is there a way to do this with vpopmail? I'm using qmail with maildrop, BTW. Rob Short

Re: [vchkpw] Spam Assassin implementation
John, I've never used that method myself. However, if it works then in theory you can turn on/off SA on a per-domain basis. Here's how we are doing it: We use qmail-scanner along with the QMAILQUEUE patch. Basically, qmail-scanner is configured to use clamav and SA for scanning. Since qmail-scanner is called in place of qmail-queue (done by setting the QMAILQUEUE environment variable in tcpserver) it scans all incoming mail for viruses and spam. Plus, we can use smtproutes to provide virus and spam filtering. (Just MX their domain to us, use smtproutes to route to their real mail esrver, and on the way through it gets scanned.) To me, the best method is using qmail-scanner, but that has the side effect that you can't toggle on/off spam and virus filtering on a per-user or per-domain basis. As long as you can live with that (I can) then I'd go with qmail-scanner. :) Jeremy Unless the network is lying to me again, John McGivern said: Hi, I wanted to confirm what was the best way to implement spam assassin with a qmail/vpopmail/qmailadmin setup. Somebody else had set this up a while ago - I think it is working but I'm not sure if it is affecting other mail deliveries. Basically I have spam assassin installed and I have a .qmail-default in every domain folder on my server. It looks like this: | /var/qmail/bin/preline -d /var/qmail/bin/bouncesaying [message to bounce back if not SPAM] | /home/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail ' ' bounce-no-mailbox Does this look like it should work okay with spam assassin? I notice others .qmil-default files look a little different. This was set up to handle all spam on a domain basis.

As long as you can live with that (I can) then I'd go with qmail-scanner. :) Jeremy, That's not entirely true, about not being able to toggle on/off spam filtering... you can configure spamassassin to whitelist mail to specific users and domains, but each time you change it MAY require a restart of spamd (it probably reads local.cf only on startup). see: http://www.spamassassin.org/doc/Mail_SpamAssassin_Conf.html In particular, the whitelist_to and associated configuration options. They accept wildcards, so if you wanted to not spam filter any mail to the domain winworld.cc, you could just add whitelist_to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I haven't actually tried this, so we're going on theory entirely here. Admittedly, this solution is ENTIRELY off topic for vchkpw =) - Rick
[vchkpw] problem with solaris 8 and md5 password
hi all, i don't know how to add support for md5 password on my solaris 8 servers This is my configure ./configure --enable-mysql=y --enable-logging=y --enable-clear-passwd=y --enable-valias=y --enable-learn-passwords=y --enable-defaultquota=104857600 --enable-auth-logging=y --enable-incdir=/usr/local/mysql/include --enable-libdir=/usr/local/mysql/lib --enable-md5-passwords=y This kind of configuration works perfectly on my linux servers (suse 8.0) and doesn't work on solaris 8 (sparc) I have no error, but on solaris i can't read or write MD5 passwords vpopmail-5.2.1 on all servers Any idea ?

Re: [vchkpw] Spam Assassin implementation
Hi John, Somebody else had set this up a while ago - I think it is working but I'm not sure if it is affecting other mail deliveries. Oh well, it is... Basically I have spam assassin installed and I have a .qmail-default in every domain folder on my server. It looks like this: | /var/qmail/bin/preline -d /var/qmail/bin/bouncesaying \ [message to bounce back if not SPAM] | /home/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail ' ' bounce-no-mailbox The first line simply bounces _everything_ back to the sender, telling him it is spam. You don't actually call any SpamAssassin program in your .qmail-default file - how do you expect SpamAssassin to be actually used in your setup? ;-) Does this look like it should work okay with spam assassin? Definitely not. I notice others .qmil-default files look a little different. Theirs might be hopefully working ;-) Personally, I'd prefer qmail-scanner to mark all messages with a spam analysis header, and then use dot-qmail filtering to sort them out later. Try out this, if your mail server supports qmail-scanner with SpamAssassin integration. You'll need the 822mess package from DJB to get the 822field program. $ cat .qmail-default | bouncesaying I don't want your spam 822field X-Spam-Flag /dev/null | /home/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' bounce-no-mailbox It's 822field in this case that checks for the presence of the X-Spam-Flag header. If it's present, it bounces the message back to the sender. If not, it continues with the next delivery instruction. Please be aware that qmailadmin occasionally rewrites .qmail-default, causing your manual filtering rules to disappear! Jonas

[vchkpw] Best Way To Import cdb to MySQL w/ Alterations
I am sure it has already been covered but I couldn't find exactly what I was looking for so here we go again. I need to import from the old cdb version that Vpopmail used to the new MySQL. New to us anyways. The tricky part is that the old user base was located at /sites/home/vpopmail/domains and the new location will be /sites/http/domainname.com/postoffice by using the -u switch. Could someone point me in the direction of a resource that may be modifiable in this fashion? It would be most appreciated. Wil

[vchkpw] :: Courier Imap Auth Problem ::
Hello Folks:
First, please let me know if I have not included enough information or am
posting inappropriately. I believe I have followed the install instructions
in each package and have researched this problem, but I just don't know
enough about courier-imap to figure it out.
I am running Qmail 1.03 + VPopMail 5.2.1 + Courier-Imap 1.7.0.20030311 using
a Slackware 8.1 system. I have about 20 virtual domains set through the
VPopMail. The server accepts new email for my recipients and outgoing SMTP
works.
I have my courier-imap configured to use authvchkpw as I am using
vpopmail. I am running IMAP-SSL(993) + POP3D-SSL(995) daemons. Sometimes the
authentication is successful but frequently I am receiving the following
error:
===
Mar 19 15:44:22 vanilla imapd-ssl: Connection, ip=[:::111.111.111.111]
Mar 19 15:44:27 vanilla imapd-ssl: LOGIN FAILED, ip=[:::111.111.111.111]

Mar 19 15:44:37 vanilla imapd-ssl: LOGOUT, ip=[:::111.111.111.111]

I am attaching also the strace from the authdaemond.plain as I think that it
could be useful.
