Many of us are concerned about XMail storing passwords in log files, particularly unencrypted ones. Davide's point is that the logs are only accessable by root so it doesn't make any difference if the log shows passwords. At this point my recommendation is: If you are concerned about this use Mike Howeth's system or any other configuration that gives those files additional protection.

[xmail] Re: Remove password in pop3 log and CtrlClnt userlist command
I work around the former problem by changing all of the x_LOG_FILE #defines so that each set of logs has its own (individually-securable) directory, e.g: #define FILTC_LOG_FILE "filtc" SYS_SLASH_STR "filtc" (the distribution would have simply said, #define FILTC_LOG_FILE "filtc") (filtc is something of my own; just using it as an example) I haven't needed to get rid of the other issue tho, so can't help you there -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Michael Hauck Sent: Saturday 29 November 2003 6:57 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [xmail] Remove password in pop3 log and CtrlClnt userlist command Hi everyone!

[xmail] Remove password in pop3 log and CtrlClnt userlist command
Hi everyone! I'm using XMail on my server and it runs very nicely. The only thing I don't like is the output of the unencrypted password in the pop3 log and when I use the userlist command in the CtrlClnt tool. I don't think the admin has to know user passwords. Is there an easy way to change this? I have had a look at the code but it's not very well documented (or I simply missed the documentation...). I tried editing the CTRLDo_userlist function but that didn't help.

It was indeed XMail not handling correctly domain's CNAMEs. It is fixed in 1.18 and 2.0. I will probably make a 1.18 if ppl will show FUD about this ... - 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]
