[xmail] Multiple outbound smtp connections
How many connections will xmail make to a particular server at one time if there are many messages to deliver to the same domain? And is there a way to limit the number if the answer is more than a few? Reason I ask is that mail to a particular domain is being delayed by a temporary error saying there are too many connections try later. The people in charge of said server say that xmail must be making more than 5 connections to one server or 3 to another of their servers to get that message. I've looked through the docs and can't find any way to limit the number of simultaneous connections to a server, is there such a setting? I thought there was, but can't find it.

[xmail] Invalid server address error on startup
Hi, Trying to setup xMail v1.25 on Windows 2003 server 64-bit. Have made it over several humps so far, figured out had to install Visual runtime to get the EXE to run, figured out had to put reg entry under win6432node so mail root was found, but now when I start the service it quits with an entry in the event log that says Invalid Server Address. I tried specifying the server's address in the registry cmd line value, but that didn't work. So what are possible causes I should look for? By the way I copied tab settings from another running xMail server, so unless there is a typo I've missed, it shouldn't be in there.

[xmail] Re: Lockdown xMail
If you need a quick temporary solution to your spam problems you should look into putting an Untangle server ( www.untangle.com ) in transparent mode between your mail server and the outside world. It's free and can be set to block most spam. Transparent mode is just as it sounds, you don't have to give it the IP address of your server and change your servers IP address and do relaying. It does get an IP address, but it's unrelated to your server and is just for management of the Untangle box and quarantine access if you use that feature. It does use a combination of black lists and spam signatures, so if any of your customers are connecting from black listed IP address that could be a problem unless you want to whitelist any problem addresses.

[xmail] Re: FreeBSD problem (similar to NetBSD problem report ed earlier?)
In order to solve the problem of internal network machines reaching other internal machines using their external address on linux firewalls that I have installed that use IPTables I've had to create a NAT rule that remaps the source address to that of the firewall's internal address. The command is: iptables -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0 -d 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0 -p tcp -m tcp -m multiport --dports smtp,http,pop3,https -j SNAT --to-source 192.168.0.1 Which says if the traffic source is the internal network and the destination is the internal network and the destination ports are smtp,http,pop3 or https then make the source address the firewalls internal address. This is in the postrouting chain because the prerouting chain has already changed the packets external destination into an internal address when it first hit the firewall rules. So what happens is that the packet is then passed off to the internal server you are trying to reach, the response goes back to the firewall because of the source address translation and then the firewall redirects the packet back to the original source. I didn't figure this out myself, years ago I googled until I found the answer and have been using it ever since. Maybe you can find the equivalent rule for m0n0wall. Packet flow diagram time: internal server sends to external address (of destination internal server) firewall rules applied that change destination to internal address packet becomes internal server address to internal address of destination internal server if you stopped here the destination server would try and respond back to the source directly, not who it was trying to talk to, so: Firewall remaps source of packet to itself and remembers who the real source is firewall internal address sends to internal address of destination internal server Internal server responds to firewall internal address firewall remaps packet destination address back to the original source and passes it on and everyone is happy!

Jeff, There are firewalls out there that consider traffic in and out of the *same* interface to be illegal and they deny it. Depending on your perspective and requirements, this is a good thing. Also some firewalls require the traffic to pass-through to be NAT'd. If you don't have the same-interface issue above, you may have your traffic not pass through the NAT tables because it turns around and goes out the same interface before it hits the NAT tables. This is really getting in to Firewall design specifics. You'll need to dig deep with the doco for your firewall(s) and maybe even log a support case to get your answer. Good luck.

Hi Rob - That is more or less what is happening, but I'm not clear about the specifics. I'm finding it a bit of a mystery - the firewall does NAT, but the external DNS server trying to contact the internal server does so in the case of many other domains, so the firewall is properly configured for external queries - also, a dig dns1.buehlertech.net +trace works properly from the server (as does dns2.buehlertech.net which is on another public IP and behind a different router running PFSense) so dns1.buehlertech.com (and dns2.buehlertech.com) must be visible without difficulty to the external dns server. The server shouldn't really be trying to communicate with it's own public IP (itself), but rather the external dns server which then should simply return the public IP of the server doing the query, or so I would think, but I guess dig +trace has to literally dig all the way back to itself? Even then, why is the secondary dns, which works and is on an entirely separate network, not stepping in? Also, if I do a dig trikorausa.com +trace from my secondary server (dns2.buehlertech.net) it works fine. Perhaps the PFSense router is handling the query and NAT properly and the m0n0wall router is not? At this point to me it is some sort of voodoo dns issue (and here I am without any animal sacrifice to offer it), but it isn't causing me any real headaches since SmartDns works. I will look more closely at NAT, though, as I suspect you are right that it is at the center of the issue somehow - it simply redirect inbound requests to port 53 of the server in question, nothing complex. I still need to look at the other external cases, but I have a feeling that

Leave out the 192.168.0.0 entry. In your e-mail program there should be a setting to send authentication to xmail when you are sending a message out through it. The same way that it sends authentication when you receive mail from xmail. If you are using Outlook Express go to Tools - Accounts and then open the properties for you xmail account. Under the Servers tab you will see a check box for My Server Requires Authentication, check that box, that's all you have to do. If you are using some other e-mail program and can't find how to enable send authentication then reply with the name of the program and version and I'm sure some one will know how to turn it on.

[xmail] Re: Misdirected Bounces
Per the information on the link xMail already does what they request. Configure your software to either reject messages during delivery or accept them permanently. Do not let your software make choices about delivery after it has accepted a message. xMail will not accept messages for accounts that don't exist so it won't bounce messages after they have been accepted for delivery. The only exception would be if you are using xmail as a relay for an internal mail server and don't know what the accounts are at the time the message is accepted. Is this what you are doing? If so then maybe you should look into a filter that can validate delivery addresses before accepting a message. Has anyone created a filter that verifies incoming message delivery addresses using LDAP (for those that have it) or against a text file with a list of valid addresses? If anyone needs it I've been using a VB script that can create a text file list of addresses from an Exchange server/Active directory setup with a program called Mailscanner. But it could be the start of filter that can verify addresses against a text file list of valid e-mail addresses. And I'm sure for the case of an xmail server being the secondary MX for another someone could come up with a script to extract the list from the user file on the primary server and copy it over to the secondary.

The majority of the messages my servers turn away are pure spam and most are addressed to accounts that have never existed, so it's not like the addresses have been harvested from someone's infected computer.

Bill John Kielkopf wrote: I agree, it is best to have the secondary/scanning server know what accounts are real or not, but this isn't always practical to enforce. Still, in the case that the secondary does attempt delivery to a non-existent account, as long as it's already decided that it's not a virus, the mailbox that it'll be sending the bounce message to is much less likely to be a forged, and valid, address... and this is what Spamcop is really trying to stop: Bounce backs, predominately from virus' that forge the sender using a randomly chosen, but real, address. Eliminate the virus, and you eliminate the majority of the problem. Bill Healy wrote: But if there is a secondary or virus scanning only server that is a relay for another server it has no way of knowing which accounts are valid and it will accept all mail for handled domains. Then when the secondary MX or virus scanner tries to deliver the message to the primary mail server it will at that point find out if the mail is to a valid account. If it's not valid then the server trying to make the delivery will generate a bounce message back to the sender, that's the problem spamcop is trying to stop. The load on my spam and virus scanning servers that front end for other mail servers has significantly decrease now that I verify who the mail is going to before any spam or virus scanning. I'm not using xmail as my front end server for scanning, I'm using a dedicated server with MailScanner http://www.mailscanner.info/ to scan for virus, spam, phishing, banned attachments, among other things before being passed on to the Exchange and xMail servers. Bill Bill Healy wrote: If so then maybe you should look into a filter that can validate delivery addresses before accepting a message. I would think that just doing virus scanning in a post-data filter on the secondary MX should be enough to limit a good majority of misdirected bounces that would actually hit a live mailbox. Perhaps SPF would catch much of the remainder? - 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]

The password in the mailusers.tab file is encrypted and you can not use that in your Outlook profile.

Spyros, I needed to archive messages to comply with Sarb-Ox, and use XMail with the POP3 message store. I use a filter that copies every message to an archive folder as it comes into XMail. This is a little different, I think than your problem. My archival process involves saving every message for history, your archival seems to be aging messages out of the mailbox for the purpose of size control. If I understand your problem correctly, the size of the outlook.pst files on the user's machines is causing you grief. You are looking for a way to store messages server side, and limit the size of the user's mailboxes. I am not sure that a POP solution will work. Because of the way POP is designed, your users must take extra efforts to not remove them from the server. And these efforts can be undone quite easily, causing the messages to download to the client. Then you are right were you are now. As a client side solution, using POP as the protocol, I am thinking of some kind of program/script/outlook rule that would process the client side mail store and copy/delete old message to the server archival location. Sounds messy. IMAP seems like your best option as a server side message store. You can control the size of the mailboxes, and the messages stay on the server, allowing you to perform processing on them. ward Spyros Tsiolis wrote: Hello people, I am trying to find a way to archive messages on the xmail server side (xmail v1.17 running on linux).

[xmail] Re: Backup server
Hi Liam, You only partially have right how to setup a backup mail server. The dns entries are fine, but you need to change the way you have your xmail configured. What you want to do is remove the domain name and user from your server as you currently have it setup and create a custom domain ( http://www.xmailserver.org/Readme.html#custom_domain_mail_processing ) with an smtprelay statement pointing to your clients server. Then you may want to adjust the command line ( http://www.xmailserver.org/Readme.html#command_line ) settings for smail to set how often and how long your server will keep trying to forward undelivered mail before giving up. This setting will affect all undelivered mail so find a balance between mail going to your client and all other mail.

I've made a couple of custom mods to the xmail source code so that I can block on RDNS patterns (as well as MAIL FROM patterns). However, none of my modifications touched any of the string routine code (it was all in the SMTPSvr code). So, I've been merrily adding RDNS patterns for blocking purposes, and my file is getting pretty good sized, so I start wondering if there are duplicate patterns in there somewhere (by duplicate patterns, I mean patterns which are not identical, but which would catch the same domain names). So, I wrote a little program that parses the headers of emails that have been rejected due to RDNS pattern matching, and it scans against the same pattern list that xmail is, and reports which patterns were matched by any particular RDNS. This was accomplished by pulling the code from StrWildMatch out of xmail, putting it in a DLL, and calling it from my own code. And I'm noticing some odd occurances, things I can't explain (I'm *way* not a C++ guy, and I get lost in the pointer jungle in StrWildMatch). I've got things that appear to be matching multiple patterns, but from my understanding of the way the matching works, they should not match both patterns. I've included some examples below. Has anyone else seen similar things? Or perhaps someone has looked at the StrWildMatch code and had a better understanding than I have and can tell me where I'm going wrong here? Thanks for any suggestions. If I don't find an answer before then, I'll mention it again when Davide gets back.

I know there are many Perl and Python solutions, but I am looking for a solution with C/C++ code that compiles into a .DLL or .EXE executable, with no 3rd party shells. Actually, the best would be a solution that can listen to port 25, receive the incoming/outgoing message, and if it passes few checks, like a Bayesian threshold, it'll forward it to the real XMAIL SMTP server for delivery. Any idea if there is such a solution available and for a decent price?

Thanks Davide, I actually left out that the new xmail is going on a new computer as well. So it sounds like I can just move the domain directory over to the new machine and leave the old server running for awhile on another address so the spools can flush on their own. How soon for 1.19?

I will be making 1.19 soon, in case you'd like to wait. Anyway, either you do some scripting to add the new line, or, better, you move the old server on another MAIL_ROOT and you bind it on different ports by letting it flush the old spool.

[xmail] Re: Attachments getting truncated
Mike, Do you have ANY filters running at all? No matter how insignificant it's function might be. What version of xmail are you using on what OS? What configuration changes have you made from the default settings? Are you using any add-on webmail or other programs? What e-mail client are you using? What is the sender using? For that matter what e-mail server are they using? Is the problem only occurring from one person or from one domain? Or is it happening from several sources? Can the problem be reproduced with the same attachment every time? How do you know the attachment is getting damaged? What is the test? Have you scanned your server and workstation for viruses? Hopefully the answers to these questions will help us point you in the right direction to solve your issue.

Our setup is fairly standard - for a while I was running the spamassassin filter but removed that to see if that was the trouble (it wasn't). XMail does not do anything with attachments. As a matter of fact, it doesn't even know the notion of attachments. The only thing that parses (and note that I said parses) are RFC822 headers. If the message results corrupted, if the message entered XMail sane, and if XMail correctly accepted the message, only filters can demage it. Bottom line is, do you think that if XMail itself was chopping messages, your would have been the only complain here? - 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] - 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]

Wish xmail could check some local recipients file even when using custdomains. Then I could setup a scheduled job to pull a userlist from the backend server and keep the local recipients file updated on my gateway. The setup I'm using is the same as you would do for a secondary MX server so the problem applies to in two cases.

[xmail] Re: accept mail from real MX
So you want me to create an MX record for a server that is not reachable form the Internet just so that it passes the test of making sure that the address that is connecting to your SMTP port is listed as an MX of the e-mail senders domain??? Hmmm... hope you don't have a secondary MX server for your domain. Because if you do when it tries to send mail to your primary it's IP address won't be listed as an MX for the e-mail senders domain. Also, taking your hotmail.com as an example. I just sent myself a message from hotmail, my server received the message from 64.4.37.209. Here's the list of hotmail.com MX servers: mx1.hotmail.com.2304IN A 65.54.166.99 mx1.hotmail.com.2304IN A 64.4.50.99 mx1.hotmail.com.2304IN A 65.54.252.99 mx2.hotmail.com.2304IN A 65.54.190.7 mx2.hotmail.com.2304IN A 65.54.254.145 mx2.hotmail.com.2304IN A 65.54.252.230 mx2.hotmail.com.2304IN A 65.54.166.230 mx3.hotmail.com.2304IN A 65.54.167.5 mx3.hotmail.com.2304IN A 64.4.50.239 mx3.hotmail.com.2304IN A 65.54.253.99 mx4.hotmail.com.2304IN A 65.54.253.230 mx4.hotmail.com.2304IN A 65.54.167.230 mx4.hotmail.com.2304IN A 65.54.190.230 mx4.hotmail.com.2304IN A 65.54.254.151 ns1.hotmail.com.77457 IN A 216.200.206.140 ns2.hotmail.com.77457 IN A 216.200.206.139 ns3.hotmail.com.77457 IN A 209.185.130.68 ns4.hotmail.com.77457 IN A 64.4.29.24 Don't see that IP in there do you Fails the test Not good.

SMTP authentication overrides the denial set by this option by giving authenticated users the ability to access the server from 'mapped' IPs. RDNS means Reverse DNS.

You have to uudecode the files after you unpack them. Do a search for uudecode.exe or an unpack program that can handle .uue files. Then you might have to uncompress the files if the AV program you are using can't scan inside archives. If so check out PAext in the PAutils at http://www.powerarchiver.com it can decompress many formats and doesn't have to be told what the file format is.
