System maintenace during a server switch caused the mailing list to be 
temporarily unavailable.

Re: [vchkpw] .qmail- files not processed

Based on that, and the fact that you're seeing similar behavior in 
non-vpopmail domains, I'd say it's a problem with your qmail install.  
qmail-local is responsible for handling the delivery lines in the 
.qmail-frederick file.


Try a fresh install of netqmail, possibly following Bill Shupp's 
excellent toaster at http://shupp.org/toaster/.

Re: [vchkpw] qmail+vpopmail on redhat 7.3 server gets very busy

2005-11-02 Thread Sam

Remo,

I noticed that one local user which I created when I installed qmail and
before installing vpopmail, was getting lots of messages from qmail under
/home/user/Maildir.

It took the system more than one hour to delete the /home/user/Maildir/new
directory and /home/user/Maildir/tmp and left /home/user/Maildir/cur.
Now the server is working fine, but qmail did not recreate the new and
tmp directories again.

Vpopmail and the domain accounts that I am using are installed under
/home/vpopmail.

Any ideas why and what qmail was doing?
Thanks,
Sam

did u check  your kernel? there are some hackers that may exploit your 
server check your /tmp directory if you are also running apache and see if 
you see some hidden directories, etc..


just my 2 cents.

 Hi,
 We have vpopmail version 5.2.1 with qmail 1.03 + mysql 3.23 on Redhat 7.3.
 It was running fine for the past 3 years until now.
 Lately the server at random gets slow and very busy and could not be 
accessed until restarted with a hard reset.


 The only thing I can think of is rebuilding the system.
 Any ideas as to why this is happening?

 Thanks,
 Sam

what do your logs say about this? (Hint: if you had some of those messages you 
recently deleted around, they would certainly help ;)

it's not supposed to.
