[xmail] Delayed deliveries - SLOW deliveries

2004-06-04 Thread Jan Rovner
Hello,

is that any way how to force xmail (on windows) to deliver mails faster?

During the day, xmail queue manager shows about=20
1500 sending messages + 1400 resending (because of mail address errors
etc.).

It takes *SO LONG* time after the xmail accepts a mail via SMTP (and
puts it
in the queue) before it is delivered to its recipient...

And what is annoying is that xmail.exe process is doing almost nothing
(CPU 0-2%) :-(((

Any ideas? Maybe the queue scan interval should be faster, maybe more
threads ... ?

Thanks,
Jan

This sounds like dns problems.

There should be no DNS problems, there are no firewalls, server is=20
connected directly to the backbone.=20

SmartDNSHost  195.28.64.119:udp, 195.28.64.119:tcp

DNS server is provided by the ISP, I've tried to use my own
Microsoft DNS server (127.0.0.1) but it did not help.

Any ideas how to determine where the problem is?

Increasing SMAIL thread count and decreasing=20

Tweak the resend cycle:

-Qi ratio
Set the increment ratio of the reschedule time in =3D
sending a
messages. At every failure in delivery a message, =3D
reschedule
time T is incremented by (T / ratio), therefore :

 T(i) =3D3D T(i-1) + T(i-1)/ratio.

If you set this ratio to zero, T remain unchanged over
delivery tentatives. Default 16.

-Qr nretries
Set the maximum number of times to try to send the =3D

Default 32.

[xmail] Delayed deliveries - big problems

2004-06-03 Thread Jan Rovner
Hello,
=20
I'm experiencing big problems with XMAIL 1.20 on Windows. Emails are
delivered
with big delay (20 minutes - 2 hours). Usual load of our server is about
50.000 emails
per day. With old SMTP server, e-mails were delivered within a minute
:-(
=20
XMail Queue manager shows many messages in the queues (it shows about
3000
messages sending, 3500 resending, 0 frozen, QTime 60 sec).
=20
Maybe when I restart XMAIL, maybe some messages are delivered.

DNS on server works fine (I've added SmartDNSHost key but it did not
help - I'm running
MS DNS server on that machine as well).

It's a DNS problem. Are you sure you have real TABs inside your .tab
files? Even if your fw is not correctly configured, if your DNS is even
close to be working, the SmartDNSHost should do the trick.

[xmail] Delayed deliveries - DNS / SmartDNSHost vs DNSROOTS file

2004-06-03 Thread Jan Rovner
Our delayed delivery problems were (probably) solved with SmartDNSHost
setting.

However, I lost whole day with that :-(((

I assume that if SmartDNSHost is not set, XMAIL tries to resolve DNS
queries by its own DNS resolver.=20

My DNSROOTS file (after decompresing .zip distro) contains only that:

a.root-servers.net.
h.root-servers.net.
c.root-servers.net.
g.root-servers.net.
f.root-servers.net.
b.root-servers.net.
j.root-servers.net.
k.root-servers.net.
l.root-servers.net.
m.root-servers.net.
i.root-servers.net.
e.root-servers.net.
d.root-servers.net.

I think it is not sufficient information for resolver to work, since it
needs
an IP address of a DNS server to contact.

Maybe it would be good to extends the current docs:

=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=

=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
DNSROOTS
This is a file that lists a root name server in each line (this is not a
TAB file).
This can be created from a query via nslookup for type=3Dns and host =3D =
'.'
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=

=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D

nslookup -type=3DNS . (on windows) produces something like that:

d.root-servers.net  internet address =3D 128.8.10.90
a.root-servers.net  internet address =3D 198.41.0.4
h.root-servers.net  internet address =3D 128.63.2.53
c.root-servers.net  internet address =3D 192.33.4.12
g.root-servers.net  internet address =3D 192.112.36.4
f.root-servers.net  internet address =3D 192.5.5.241
b.root-servers.net  internet address =3D 192.228.79.201
j.root-servers.net  internet address =3D 192.58.128.30
k.root-servers.net  internet address =3D 193.0.14.129
l.root-servers.net  internet address =3D 198.32.64.12
m.root-servers.net  internet address =3D 202.12.27.33
i.root-servers.net  internet address =3D 192.36.148.17
e.root-servers.net  internet address =3D 192.203.230.10

How actually DNSROOTS file has to look like?=20
Wouldn't be nice to include DNSROOTS.SAMPLE file in distro?

And notice in the docs something like:
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=

[xmail] Simple address rewriting question

how can I solve a trivial address rewriting with XMAIL for the case of=20

I've configured foo.com domain with  users A, B and need to create
address rewriting as follows:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] =3D=3D A, B, [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I.E. any mail coming to [EMAIL PROTECTED] should be delivered to
(local) users A, B, [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I've tried to configure it using mailing lists but it did not work.

Can you help me?

You can't do that but you can bind unnecessary services to localhost and
some other port.
