[xmail] Re: Multiple ports?
They can't block outgoing ports because those are dynamically assigned most of the time. What they can do is look at the port you are trying to connect to, such as SMTP 25. So yes they are blocking outgoing connections, but not based upon where you are coming from, but where you are going to.

[xmail] Re: Multiple ports?
Our server is @ Hurricane Electric, they cannot block any of my ports. What im saying is that more than one ISP blocks the outgoing PORTS of the subscribers. By listening on multiple ports you could configure your email software to use an alternate port and send email without any problems. Bellsouth as one example has HORRIBLE email servers and has a 10MB size limit. -Mensaje original- De: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]En nombre de Bill Healy Enviado el: Wednesday, January 22, 2003 5:24 PM Para: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Asunto: [xmail] Re: Multiple ports? If they are blocking you from connecting to other servers on port 25 then changing yours to another port will make no difference. They are filtering on where you are connecting to, not from. Now if it's incoming connections to your smtp server on port 25 that they are blocking then yes you could change it with the command line options, but other servers will not know how to connect to this new port. So if it's outgoing that is the problem then just gateway all your outgoing traffic through your ISP. If it's incoming that is the problem you'll probably have to drop all your mail into a mailbox at the ISP and then POP it from there to xmail.

[xmail] Re: Multiple ports?
If they are blocking you from connecting to other servers on port 25 then changing yours to another port will make no difference. They are filtering on where you are connecting to, not from. Now if it's incoming connections to your smtp server on port 25 that they are blocking then yes you could change it with the command line options, but other servers will not know how to connect to this new port. So if it's outgoing that is the problem then just gateway all your outgoing traffic through your ISP. If it's incoming that is the problem you'll probably have to drop all your mail into a mailbox at the ISP and then POP it from there to xmail.

[xmail] Multiple ports?
Is it possible to run XMail's SMTP server on port 25 and another one at the same time as well? The issue is that some ISP (earthlink and now bellsouth) are blocking their subscribers from using outgoing port 25 to send email to any server but those of the ISP. As soon as I heard of this I ordered a line with Covad but I know that not everyone can do this, so I need a workarround for this. If it's not possible to do this with XMail, what other options would there be? I was thinking of using another application to listen for mail on another port and just act like a relay (IE: the program is SMTP only) - 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: Iam having a peculiar problem
Is there any other SMTP or POP program running on that machine? I might imagine when you restart the machine, xmail comes first and then other smtp program which blocks xmail port 25 & 110. Check it out... Otherwise you'll have to check the logs and come up with more details problem description.

[xmail] Re: Forward/Copy question
Hi there. In the user's folder inside 'MAILROOT'/domains/yourdomain.com/ put a file named 'mailproc.tab'. Inside that file put two directives; one is the redirection and the other tells xmail to drop mail into the current user's mailbox. Example below: "redirect" "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" "mailbox" Between the 'redirect' and the address there must be a tab, not spaces. The 'mailbox' directive instructs XMail to put a copy of the message in the current user's mailbox. If you leave this out you can redirect mail without keeping a local copy. You can redirect to any address, and you can include several redirects if you wish. Also there are two kinds of redirects. I think I have this right; the one above will redirect the message without changing the original sender, while 'lredirect' will change the sender to the address of the user where the mailproc.tab file resides (someone correct me if I'm wrong).

[xmail] Forward/Copy question
Hello. I need to duplicate all incoming mail on several user accounts to another mailbox, yet delivering this mail to the destination mailbox intact. How should I do this ? On sendmail, I was doing that via .forward, but on xmail forwarding to mail to several users including own address generates a loop. - 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]
