[xmail] Filters

2003-03-11 Thread Jørn Aakre

In my filters directory I have a file named mydomain.tab (and
email.mydomain.tab) that loks like this:
d:\mail\filters\test.vbs @@FILE

However, this doesn't seem to work. Nothing happens. I have tried running
test.vbs manually, and it works the way it should (just write a testfile).
I've also set proper permissions on the folder so it shouldn't be problem.
Even gave full access to everybody for testing.

As you might have guessed, this is XMail on a Win2k server.

Does anyone know why my filter is not running?

[xmail] Problem with this list ?

2003-03-11 Thread CLEMENT Francis

Hello Davide

I am a subscriber to the xmail and xmail-announce lists
From jan 25, 2003 04h51, time of last mail received from xmail list, I
didn't receive any more mail from this list ...
I run a stats command on list xmail, result : NOT subscribed !
I run a stats on list xmail-announce, result : subscribed

So i subscribed again on xmail list

Any apparent reason of this suddently 'unsubscribe' ?

(for info last mail received from xmail-announce list at jan, 29 2003 18:43)

Thanks

Francis CLEMENT

[xmail] Features request for 1.14final or 1.15 (long )!!!

2003-03-11 Thread Mircea Ciocan

Hi Davide and people,


It seems that my struggle was fruitful, soon xmail will replace 2 
sendmail and 2 exchange server faily loaded ( over 280 domains and 
approx 16000 e-mail addrs).
Now everything is fine and dandy, xmail behaved excellent on different 
tortures, from mail-bombs to simulated network  problems. And I have to 
mention again that the new filter framework proved to be extremely 
robust and simple to use if not as feature full as sendmail's libmilter, 
but it does what we need it to do.
Here is a short description of a real world situation: customer A wants 
to host 4 domains: 1 domain gold with maximum 1000 accounts, 2 domains 
silver with 400 accounts and one domain bronze with 50 accounts , each 
domain with its own quota, same gose for customer B that has another set 
of domains with different parameters.
Now from the existing features of xmail I'm able to do everything 
except for these things:

-Limitation of maximum number of accounts ( and possibly aliases) per 
domain, this feature is essential for a commercial success of xmail and 
I belive it will make xmail the dear of small ISPs.

-A method to have an intermediate level between full server 
administrator that can create/delete domains at will and postmaters that 
are restricted inside of a domain, some kind of demi-gods that are 
allowed create a limited and configurale number of domains with 
predefined restrictions like domain quota and max number of accounts and 
max number of aliases. This demigods will have to be defined in the same 
TAB that now keep server admins or in a separate TAB.

- Priviledge separation between domain creators, like once a demigod 
created a domain this becomes his only to meta-administrate ( override 
postmaster tasks and delete domain) that domain. His priviledges must 
not extend over some other people domains even if is capable to 
delete/rename/create domains of its own within the constraints of his 
definiton. Of corse server admin will keep full override rights over ALL 
domains.

- The posibility to add new variables in domain TAB definitons ( and 
even in the users ones ) in the form of name/value pairs to be able 
store comments and stuff not directly related to server operatins, like 
comments and accounting info.


I know that all those could be implemented in some middleware sitting 
between xmail control channel and configuration/administration 
application but I'd really like to see at least accounts nummber 
restriction and generic variables in the main distribution.
If some of the thing I've listed above can be done in the already 
existing xmail, excuse my blindness in reading the docs and help me see 
the light :-) with some examples.
Davide if you are not interested about these features plese helpme at 
last with some insightfull ideeas of where is the best way to name/place 
those variables to be consistent with the existing naming/organization 
conventions and I'll try to do the programming as much as possible.
Of course if you or anybody else have some patches related to that 
features lingerin somewhere I'll be more than happy to test them and 
help debug/finish them.
Thank you all for your time used to read this rather lenghty message 
and keep up the good work.

Actually you can handle these jobs through one of the many web-admin

Hello,

I think that these things can be on middleware layer. As someone already
told, I wrote XMail-WAI (http://www.altair2000.net/software/xmail-wai/),
which allows generally what you requested (only it can't limit number of
accounts created).

User variables are already present in XMail.

[xmail] XMail-WAI.NET features discussion

2003-03-11 Thread Michal Altair Valasek

Hello,

as I announced before, I discontinued XMail-WAI and I'm planning new
version, which would be built on the .NET technology (mainly ASP.NET).

Currently, there is finished XMail-CTRL, universal module for =
communication
with XMail using it's CTRL protocol.

I am sending you list of planned features, for discussion. Also, I am
accepting offers for help with implementation of features. The project =
would
be distributed in Visual Studio .NET, used language would be VB.NET, =
license
used would be GNU GPL.

The main features of XMail-WAI would be in the .NET version too, with
exception of webmail (I'll discuss that later). Generally, it would =
allow
distribution of privileges on server/domain/user levels. New features =
would
include:

- Possibility to limit account creation per domain, either by maximum =
number
or by assigning the total amount of disk space.
- Better cooperation (with the new filtering system), which would allow
things like autoresponders etc. to work.
- Speed optimization. Current version is too slow, due to ctrlclnt.exe. =
It
can be better if rewritten to Shawn's eyeXMail.

The features which would not be in the .NET version (although some of =
them
are in the current version):

- SLIM collaboration. I see that SLIM (my list manager) is ugly. Do you =
know
about some list manager, which would run on Windows platform and would, =
work
well with xmail, be free, preferably open-source, and not require
third-party software, such as Perl or Cygwin? If yes, I'll use it and =
write
it's support to XMail-WAI.NET. If no, I'll consider writing of SLIM.NET,
which is long-term task.
- Multi-language interface. I wrote about this recently - writing
multi-language interface is a lot harder that the single-language one.
Moreover, there is problem with further development, to maintain the
language data files. Therefore, the XMail-WAI.NET would be in English =
only.
As it would use UNICODE, there should not be problem with non-ASCII
characters (but I cannot guarantee languages like chinese to work).
- Webmail. To write webmail is not a simple task and I don't have time =
to do
it well. So, there would be no webmail in the first stage.
- Frozen messages management. Since XMail has option to simply discard
undeliverable messages, I started to use it and don't bother with frozen
messages anymore.
- The strange things like pop3link etc. I am not using it, never was, =
never
will, don't know how it's working.

What I need:
- Your suggestions, what the XMail-WAI.NET should do.
- Your help with programming, mainly on the abstraction layer (see =
lower),
but everything.

Currently, the XMail-CTRL is working on the CTRL layer, so it returns =
values
withount any abstraction as array of string. I want to write something =
with
current codename XAL (XMail Abstraction Layer, compare with HAL - =
Hardware
Abstraction Layer), which would convert Xmails CTRL output to .NET =
native
formats, like datasets properly typed for databinding, etc. It's =
relatively
simple work, but the main problem for me, because I don't have enough =
time
:-(

@@FROM@@RCPT
CSCRIPT.EXE C:\MailRoot\filters\SpamAssassin\SpamAssassin.vbs @@MSGID

Two things to note:
 - CSCRIPT.EXE must be found in the path
 - If you run XMail server using the LOCALSYSTEM account then don't use
pipes in batch files! Run them as a different user (which you acctually
should do).

[xmail] Forward All Mail

2003-03-11 Thread Andrew Joakimsen

I need to move a server to another datacenter. I have a backup server and am
setting up the DNS on it right now. How do I tell XMail to forward all mail
to the new server BY IP because I know that it will take up to 24 hours for
all the changes to propagate. Also is there any way to make XMail a POP3
proxy, how will users be able to check their mail while it is in transition
or will there be just a delay?

You cannot forward messages that are already inside mailboxes.
