vpopmail51 dev release

2001-12-04 Thread Donal Diamond

I've noticed on http://www.inter7.com/devel/ that the 5.1.0 dev has started 
but the download source link is bad. 

(http://www.inter7.com/vpopmail/vpopmail-5.1.0.tar.gz)

Would it be useful to use cvs or some sort of version control?

I'd personally would like to be easily track whats changed  
whenever a new 5.1.x is released.

The .over-quota.msg and .no-user.msg feature seems to be removed.  

Was there a problem with this feature?

Sure - I was just wondering why it was removed - it is still mentioned in the install 
guide.  

I was nice to be able to personalise bounce messages per domain.

I loved the tone of your email. But next time, please take a well deserved break
and just sit down and break open a beer (or where I come from, a creamy guinness) and 
watch tv.

How about stopping us download the source? There are too many install problems in the 
mailing list.
You could take the pain of upgrading away from us, and, because you know what we 
really need, we automatically download upgrades from your server. 

Eventually, you transfer away from qmail to an enchanced "inter7mail" which we
have to pay a handsome license for. At this stage we are so dependent on
vpopmail that we cannot easily switch to another product.  

Through our license-only upgrade server, you charge for 'feature updates' (ie
security patches).

I dont think anyone else could come up with this concept. :-)

Soon, in the future, you will be sipping martini's by your pool on your own
private island wondering how we can enchance dns.

Your partner in crime,

Donal

P.S your question is valid and worth contemplation - I just could'nt resist
due to all the paranoia re .NET and MS 'adopting' FreeBSD and the fact that
I'm just home from some r'r.

P.P.S do a 'strings ftp.exe | grep Calif' on any windows machine - 
looks like they've being robbing open source this long time.

P.P.P.S keep up the good work





Re: error while compile vpopmail-4.10.29 with FreeBSD 4.2 server

2001-07-16 Thread Donal Diamond

Sorry, it's not the --enable-hardquota=5M param that wrong.

to use valias feature you need to use mysql:

--enable-valias=y  --enable-mysql=y

Hope that fixes it.

Re: error while compile vpopmail-4.10.29 with FreeBSD 4.2 server

2001-07-16 Thread Donal Diamond

Hi,

if you do a ./configure --help 

..

  --enable-hardquota=#|n   n disables quotas, or # where # is a number in bytes NOT y, 
do not use Y, y is BAD

...


so you need --enable-hardquota=500


Hope this helps

Donal

Re: Sending Problems

2001-07-12 Thread Donal Diamond

Your mail server now thinks your clients are external -

You have to add your new address range to your list of allowed relay
hosts to whatevers your smtp tcpserver -xrules.cdb file is called.

He must be senior enough to not have to go on-call and get paged at 4:30 in the 
morning :-)

I'd prob use svok or svstat to generate an alert if fails - but still use svscan so i 
can sleep soundly. 

Then again - it's probably never failed.

Just checked your email - you actually said test machines so ignore that question.

4.10.29 vchkpw.c:#include typo?

2001-07-12 Thread Donal Diamond


In case anyone else is having similiar problems, on freebsd I had to change the 
include in chkpw.c

from 

#include 
to
#include 

error was :

...
gcc -I. -I/usr/local/include/mysql  -g -O2 -Wall -c vchkpw.c
vchkpw.c:30: wait.h: No such file or directory
...

Prob just a typo.

Ken, on the topic of adding supervise/svscan support, in an earlier mail I  think you 
you said you dont use it on your production machines. 

May I ask why? Are there problems with daemontools.

Re: MySQL -vs- CDB [Conversion]

This is slightly OT but it was raised a question for me:

If you are using mysql replication would (or is it already?) it be possible to get 
vpopmail
to query the update (master) server if the local read-only server is not available?

As well as adding redundancy, could it also be used to speed up provisioning delays
i.e if user is not found is local database , could the master be queried as well?

I'm just in early testing of vpopmail for use in an ISP enviroment (and results are 
promising, the software is v good) 
and haven't _really_  looked at the mysql replication features yet , so forgive me if 
this question in already in the 
docs or mailing lists.

signal.h missing from vdelivermail.c ?

2001-07-02 Thread Donal Diamond

Hi, I'm running FreeBSD 4.3 Stable

while trying to compile 4.10.26 I get the error:

vdelivermail.c: In function `run_command':
vdelivermail.c:645: `SIGPIPE' undeclared (first use in this function)
vdelivermail.c:645: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
vdelivermail.c:645: for each function it appears in.)
vdelivermail.c:645: `SIG_DFL' undeclared (first use in this function)
gmake[2]: *** [vdelivermail.o] Error 1
gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/vpopmail-4.10.26'
gmake[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/vpopmail-4.10.26'
gmake: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2

I dont know if this is a FreeBSD specific error but I had to add

 #include  to vdelivermail.c to get it to compile.
(All previous versions compiled without any problems)

Is this a known problem?
