Re: vpopmail 5.0pre1
Hello Ken, Thanx it works now, unbelievable ;)) ! We had to fill in "" in 'pw_passwd' and the 'pw_dir' field.. When there was NULL in both fields or in one of them it still crashed or it said authentication failure.. Thanks for all the help you offered us with this feature.

Set the password field to a blank string "", not a NULL. with vpopmail-5.0pre3, use the --enable-learn-passwords=y option.

vpopmail 5.0pre1
Hello, We've installed vpopmail 5.0pre1 so that we have the possibility to add no password. However, adding a record with an empty password field returned an error since the table definition doesn't allow null values by default. We have changed this so that nulls for the password field can be added, so that we could succesfully add a new record. However we now receive the following error during logon: 'ERR aack, child crashed'. Do we need to specify a specific value for the password field, since it doesn't allow nulls by default? Normally, it should ask for a password when first authenticating via pop3 right? cheers, lao _ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp

Vladimir, I wasn't intending to merge all of your changes, as I figured Inter7 would want to do that to be sure of any design issues. I was just personally interested in the NO_SMTP gid flag for my system. I'm certainly not against any of your changes. While can't speak for them, I think the easiest thing for Inter7 would be for you to provide any additional info you have on your modifications, as well as a patch against the current dev release, as your changes seem pretty substantial. Cheers! Bill

I guess there also could be such possibility as block on vdeliver level... but... dont think its good decision, as we will lost contact with that user... or... maybe enable smtp delivery from admin stuff? this a little better. to Bill and Ken: why cant u contact me for additional info what have been done to vpopmail modules in order to implement it faster? I guess it will be a little easier way to work on :) Waiting for news from you. Vladimir Kabanov.

Ok, I've been working on this but can't get it right yet. The vmoduser/vuserinfo stuff was easy to adapt. But Vladimir's version uses a lot of new stuff to determine what service is calling vchkpw. I ended up bringing a lot of his code into 5.0. Anyway, it doesn't work yet, and I can't work on it anymore today. I've posted a patch (against 5.0pre1) of where I'm at, if anyone wants to look at it. It's pretty close, probably. ; ) To apply: cd vpopmail-5.0pre1 lynx --source http://shupp.org/patches/vpopmail-5.0p1-nosmtp.patch.gz | patch -p0 ./configure make make install-strip Cheers, Bill Shupp

SMTP blocking (via vmoduser) is something I wouldn't mind seeing in 5.0.. I just implemented smtp auth in production, and could use that sooner than later. ; ) If I get time today, I'll try to extract those changes from Vladimir's code and submit it as a patch to 5.0pre1.

Hello , It will be great if you will add spam blocking for certain users. I mean black-lists for certain users. -- Best regards, Yuri mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

vpopmail-5.0pre1
Hi Folks, The summer is over (here in the US) and it's time we have a new vpopmail-5.0 release to start the year out right. I do not want to add in any new features which require a new round of testing. Any new features can be added to 5.1 (devel version) and later released as a production version 5.2. So I would like to release vpopmail-4.10.36 as vpopmail-5.0pre1. The two features I would like to put in the 5.1 devel version are Vlad's new auth code for pop3 capa pop3 auth login & cram-md5 smtp auth login & cram-md5 pop3 APOP. And Enar's vaddaliasdomain code. What do you folks think? Ken Jones
