[xmail] Re: Fetching mail using POP3 without removing
Hi David, Thanks for your response. I have tried modifying the source so that it doesn't delete, but then it refetches same message everytime. So, if with each PSYNC I have one more copy of each message in the local mailbox. It would need to check for UIDLs and not refetch messages that are already in the local mailbox. Would that be simple to add?

Imagine an office that is connected to internet using a dialup (mydomain.local). There is an external rented server that runs 24/7 (standard web hosting system) that serves the web and collects all mails for the main domain (mydomain.com). Now, I want the users to be able to pick their mail both from home (using mydomain.com POP3 server), and from the office (using mydomain.local POP3 server). In fact I need to setup something like mail mirroring, where any mail existing on .com exists on ..local as well, so that users can pick it up even if the office is not online currently. The users would explicitly delete mails using their own POP3 clients from both .com (when at home) and .local server (when in the office), so that they can have one copy of mail in the office and one at home. If this works out, I can also shortcut the .com delivery from the inside to copy directly to .local, even when offline, etc. But the part that the messages are not deleted from .com by .local pickup is essential here. I hope this explanation is understandable. You need IMAP. I'm pretty sure that somewhere I saw an IMAP server that used a POP3 connection to expose the IMAP protocol. I tried to search it but without success. - Davide - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe xmail in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line help in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe xmail in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line help in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[xmail] still having STRANGE smail server problems
hi list and davide, we still have the problem, that SMAIL server stops working after a time. all other services work fine, but the que gets bigger and bigger because is 'dead'. after restarting the server with 'killall XMail' (the script does NOT work anymore, simply no response), the SMAIL server sends out a few messages and the problem is there again. so everytime that happens i restart XMail until spool is empty (after a few restarts XMail has sent all spooled messages) and then i replace the spool directory - and it works again - for a while. davide: i have snapshots of the corrupted spool dirs - i'll send it to you. At the beginning of the year we had this 3 times, last weekend and last night. could that have something todo with the SMAIL threads? debug output does not say anything about smail server errors. XMail 1.11 on RedHat Linux Kernel 2.4.19 2000 Domains 900 Users 1400 Forward-Accounts maybe a special mega-debbuging smail server would give us more information about that problem (?). so long, soenke. -- Binary/unsupported file stripped by Ecartis -- -- Type: application/x-pkcs7-signature -- File: smime.p7s - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe xmail in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line help in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[xmail] Re: still having STRANGE smail server problems
At the beginning of the year we had this 3 times, last weekend and last night. could that have something todo with the SMAIL threads? hmmm maybe the problem has something to do with a special mailbox. one mail box has 1700 mails in it, 7.1 MB the mailbox had a mailproc.tab with mailboxtab\n in it - dunno why. but i found 1878 frozen messages! the mails for another mailbox arrive. that has a mailproc redirect to the special mailbox and now smail server says the maximum has been reached as a error message - although that mailbox is local and exists !! (the frozen messages are there because the return path of the original sender (a perl script from one of our servers) was wrong and the postmaster error messages got frozen.) regards, soenke. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe xmail in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line help in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
