Ok guys .. got it all working ... 

For mail-mta/qmail-1.03-r15 you need notlsbeforeauth set in make.conf
Also in your /var/qmail/control/conf-smtpd 

QMAIL_SMTP_POST="${QMAIL_SMTP_CHECKPASSWORD} ${QMAIL_SMTP_POST}"

Usually there is a ${QMAIL_SMTP_AUTHHOST} before CHECKPASS, but this is not 
needed or it gives you a permission error

vmysql can't read settings /var/vpopmail/etc/vpopmail.mysql

FYI +:)

[vchkpw] SMTP auth ....

2005-06-30 Thread Henti Smith
I've upgraded to vpopmail (5.4.6) and decided to switch to smtp auth .. since I 
couldn't get roaming working anyway. 

I'm still getting rcpthosts errors,

I'm fighting a loosing battle here ... 

I followed the instructions on

sadly .. after all this .. and the missions I have been through to get any kind 
of decent spam/virus protection going
the problem with bouncing to "spoofed" spam accounts causing double bounces, 
I'm looking at switching to postfix.

I love qmail/vpopmail I just wish they could make adding some features easer 
then right now .. it's just tomuch of a hastle to keep up.

no kidding .. my primary vhost server is now completely borked ... 

I can't get this working again ... and I don't knwo what I'm doing wrong .. 

shows you how long ago I did a manual vpop install. 

I basically did this .. : 

removed this from ebuild

--disable-tcp-rules-prog --disable-tcpserver-file 
--disable-roaming-users \
|| die

added

   --enable-tcprules-prog=/usr/bin/tcprules 
--enable-tcpserver-file=/etc/tcp.smtp \
   --enable-roaming-users=y --enable-relay-clear-minutes=60 \
   --disable-rebuild-tcpserver-file \

but still can't get the relay cdb to get rebuilt after pop

any suggestions ... ?

[vchkpw] mail relay problems ...

2005-06-30 Thread Henti Smith
This is pretty much in responce to Jeffrey A Schmidt's mail called "can't relay 
any more" posted on Fri, 15 Apr 2005 17:28:34 -0700

Jeffrey, 

Gentoo has once again made HUGE changes to a package without informing it's 
users thereof before allowing the package to install. 

this is from the ebuild : 

einfo "Use of vpopmail's tcp.smtp[.cdb] is also deprecated now, consider"
einfo "using net-mail/relay-ctrl instead."

incase you're wondering what this means ... 

from the install section: 

econf \
##SNIP##
--disable-tcp-rules-prog --disable-tcpserver-file 
--disable-roaming-users \
|| die

# TCPRULES for relaying is now considered obsolete, use relay-ctrl instead
#--enable-tcprules-prog=/usr/bin/tcprules 
--enable-tcpserver-file=/etc/tcp.smtp \
#--enable-roaming-users=y --enable-relay-clear-minutes=60 \
#--disable-rebuild-tcpserver-file \

They have disabled roaming users aka relaying in vpopmail. You need to emerge 
relay-ctrl instead. 
Or work around this ..
