[vchkpw] pop3 before smtp
Hello All I am having the hardest problem trying to get pop3 before smtp to work in vpopmail. If there is anyone that got it to work, can you please contact me. I have a few question and comparison I would like to ask. Raymond
Re: [vchkpw] roaming users
Is the start up script my qmail-smtpd run file. Because in that file it has a command " -v -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb \" if I change that to "~vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb" will that work. Also do I need to change qmailctl to point to "~vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp" I followed the instruction from http://www.pipeline.com.au/staff/mbowe/isp/webmail-server.htm in building my box. Thanks a lot for your input so far.

Re: [vchkpw] roaming users
Well, I'm really sorry, and I'm very thankful for your help but can you give me more detail on how to tell my tcpserver to look at my ~vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp instead. Also, I am using vpopmail's roaming usres function, but it is not working. thats why I'm writing this email. raymond > On Friday 18 June 2004 11:30 am, Raymond Luong wrote: >> I would like to add, since my qmailctl cdb is still reading off my >> /etc/tcp.smtp, and assuming my vpopmail is recompileing my tcp.smtp >> everytime someone login through pop3, can I just edit my qmailctl and >> qmail-smtp file and point the tcp.smtp at my ~vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp? >> Will >> that work.

Re: [vchkpw] roaming users
I would like to add, since my qmailctl cdb is still reading off my /etc/tcp.smtp, and assuming my vpopmail is recompileing my tcp.smtp everytime someone login through pop3, can I just edit my qmailctl and qmail-smtp file and point the tcp.smtp at my ~vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp? Will that work. I am afraid to do it because my mail box is a live production box.

[vchkpw] roaming users
I jus t upgraded my vpopmail 5.4.3 to 5.4.4 with roaming user enable. here is my following configuration:./configure \--enable-roaming-users \ --enable-tcprules-prog=/usr/local/bin/tcprules--enable-tcpserver-file=/home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp --enable-relay-clear-minutes=180--enable-logging=p \--disable-passwd \--enable-clear-passwd \--disable-domain-quotas \--enable-auth-module=mysql \--disable-many-domains \--enable-auth-logging \--enable-mysql-logging \--enable-valias \--disable-mysql-limits then I follow with:make make install-stripThere was no error in return, everything seem to compile fine.Upon exiting my qmailadmin, it tells me the version of qmailadmin and vpopmail I'm using. The vpopmail still say version 5.4.3. I would like to know is that true or not? Does qmailadmin check vpopmail version everrytime or does it just record the vpopmail version when it was install.My next problem. It seem even though I enable roaming users for vpopmail, I still can not do pop before smtp. When I try to send from outlook express, still tell me I'm not on the allow rcpthosts list. Is there some step I'm missing?I check my tcprules and tcp.smtp files and they where they support to be but when I use the whereis command for the tcp.smtp, it tells me its located in /etc/tcp.smtp.I don't know what is the problem. Can someone offer me some suggestion.Raymond
[vchkpw] Quota
HiI'm using vpopmail 5.3.14, squirrelmail, courier-imapI enable 20 meg quota for all account but it seem the quota will not include the trash and sent folder. I will have account will 90 meg but the quota bar still show its within quota, and thats because the inbox is within quota. Its all the trash mail. I set vpopmail qmailadmin to purge the trash folder every 7 days. I would still like the quota to include the trash and sent folder. Anyone know how i can set it that way.Raymond
RE: [vchkpw] Can not get vpopmail to enable roaming support
Hey Jonas Thanks for your straight forward answer. I like it! I follow your suggestion. This is what i did for the vpopmail configure ./configure \ --enable-roaming-users=y \ --enable-tcprules-prog=/usr/local/bin/tcprules \ --enable-tcpserver-file=/home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp \ --enable-relay-clear-minutes=70 \ --enable-learn-passwords=y \ --enable-default-domain=genkians.com \ [EMAIL PROTECTED] \ --enable-logging=p \ --enable-defaultquota=20971520S \ --enable-ip-alias-domains=n \ --enable-passwd=n \ --enable-clear-passwd=y \ --enable-mysql=y \ --enable-incdir=/usr/local/mysql/include \ --enable-libdir=/usr/local/mysql/lib \ --enable-many-domains=n \ --enable-auth-logging=y \ --enable-mysql-logging=y \ --enable-valias=y I got this in return vpopmail directory = /home/vpopmail uid = 89 gid = 89 ip alias = OFF --enable-ip-alias-domains=n (default) address extentions = OFF --enable-qmail-ext=n (default) roaming users = ON --enable-roaming-users=y tcpserver file = /home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp open_smtp file = /home/vpopmail/etc/open-smtp user quota = 20971520S -enable-hardquota=20971520S auth module = mysql --enable-mysql=y mysql replication = OFF --enable-mysql-replication=n default table optimization = one domain with many users --enable-many-domains=n system passwords = OFF --enable-passwd=n default file locking = ON --enable-file-locking=y default file sync = OFF --enable-file-sync=n default disable vdelivermail fsync make seekable = ON --enable-make-seekable=y default auth logging = ON --enable-auth-logging=y default mysql logging = ON --enable-mysql-logging=y clear passwd = ON --enable-clear-passwd=y (default) users big dir = ON --enable-users-big-dir=y (default) valias processing = ON --enable-valias=y mysql limits = OFF --enable-mysql-limits=n default pop syslog = show failure attempts with clear text password --enable-logging=p default domain = genkians.com --enable-default-domain=genkians.com auth inc = -I/usr/local/mysql/include auth lib = -L/usr/local/mysql/lib -l then I ran "make" and "make install-strip" When it was done, I went looking for the open-smtp file. I can not find it. I did a search of my whole computer and no luck. Do you know why the make install-strip did not create the open-smtp file? Raymond
RE: [vchkpw] Can not get vpopmail to enable roaming support
SteveI didn't change the tcp.cmtp to tcp.smtp.cdb. I simple link my /etc/tcp.smtp to ~vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp and made the file 777 so any program can write to it. Now vpopmail and qmail is sharing the same tcp.smtp file. I believe I might had left out a few important setting while compiling vpopmail. I will recompile vpopmail with your setting steve.

[vchkpw] enable pop3 roaming user support in vpopmail
Hello all you vpopmail guru When I install my vpopmail+qmail+mysql..I have no clue what I was doing nor what I will do with my mail server in the future, so when I install vpopmail, I input no for "--enable-roaming-users=n". Well, now I'm regretting it. Can one of you vpopmail guru tell me how I can enable roaming user support on vpopmail safely without disrupting my 200 users. Assuming vpopmail roaming user allow pop3 user to send mail via my smtp server. Meaning vpopmail roaming user is another form of pop3 vefore smtp right?raymond
