And as much as I am not a fan of MS or AOL, between the two of them they control way more than 0.001% of the mail traffic on the internet. If you add all the hotmail users and aol users, I would argue that you have more than 30% of the internet mail users just in those two groups. Plus even if just those two support SPF, that would cut down on about 50% of the SPAM, because it is those two addresses that spammers forge and use a lot of the time. Maybe it is not a perfect solution, but heck if I/we could cut out 30% of the SPAM -- that would be an awesome start :) The spammers are not stupid, so they don't use @[EMAIL PROTECTED] etc. anymore and SPF is useless. ;( - 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]

It tries to flush the pending queue for a given domain. For example you can have a domain handled to relay messages to another server that is not always on line.

[xmail] Re: Filters question (WAS: new problem with custom domains processing)
I think (and I proved) that filters are ideal solution for my needs. But I have some small note/question. I discovered following behaviour: - suppose there is a my.domain handled by xmail (defined in domains.tab) - suppose there is a regular account [EMAIL PROTECTED] - suppose there is a mailproc.tab file defined for [EMAIL PROTECTED] (it contains mailbox command, but I'm not sure if this is important) a mailproc.tab with only mailbox line in it is useless, because it's the default behaviour. - suppose there is a line * [EMAIL PROTECTED] 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 my.domain.tab in filters.in.tab file, my.domain.tab file exists in filters subdirectory and it contains only one command. This command only performs something like logging and always return 0 as return code (but this is not important). Now if email arrives for [EMAIL PROTECTED], the command is fired twice. If mailproc.tab file is removed for that user, command is fired only once. Is this correct? I mean: is it required to fire the command twice? Just for your consideration, I'm able to handle this behaviour in my case. the command is only fired once in the [EMAIL PROTECTED] case. in other cases it is not fired, because xmail stops processing the the message before it arrives the filters. the reasen is that xmail does not find a valid account for the email adress and return Mailbox unavailible. You have to add a new account in the domain, call it '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' and add a * alias for it: aliasadd my.domain * log the log account gets an empty mailproc.tab so that messages that go to it (in that case all messages to my.domain except [EMAIL PROTECTED]) are deleted. now you define the filter on [EMAIL PROTECTED] - that should do the job. -- soenke - 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: Xmail and Abuse.net
Hi there, I'm trying to restrict my xmail 1.16 server to allow SENDING only on very specific issues: 1) e-mails originating from my web server (a set of 8 IPs). I basically use a number of ASP pages that send out mail to outside cusomers using CDONTS. If the e-mails were created and sent from the server, they should be allowed. see smtprelay.tab - add the ips there 2) e-mails sent to reffer-only accounts on my server. For example: I have a local user : [EMAIL PROTECTED] that has 2 refferes to external domains (that are not hosted on my server) - I want emails sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] to be reffered correctly - currently it stay on the server. use mailproc.tab and redirect switch. see the doc fr details. - 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: mx records with 127.0.0.1
Setting the MX record to 127.0.0.1 is an illegal operation. It breaks the RFC because RFC states that a domain that is mail-enabled ( has MXs ) MUST have a postmaster account reachable for such domain. An this won't be true if the MX is set to 127.0.0.1 You are 100% right, but i CANNOT control mx records of other nameservers. So everytime my xmail server tries to send a mail to a domain with 127.0.0.1 mx record, it will generate a mail loop (if 127.0.0.1 is allowed relay address). This method is used to avoid traffic for domains that does not have emails, because the RFC dictates that if an MX lookup fails the A record must be tried. The simple solution is to have domain name that does not have A records, in this way even the A record method will fail and no traffic will be generated inside the domain network. as i said, i have no control over foreign name servers and cannot solve the problem. solution could be that xmail allows no mails to servers with 127.0.0.1 mx. greets, soenke. - 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]

'451 Requested action aborted: (-20) local error in processing' no, according to Errors.h -20 is ERR_INVALID_FILE, so it seems there are wrong configuration files. check them, they must have the STRICT format (see manual)! and add users etc only with the admin ctrl interface! nice weekend, soenke. - 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]

hi, how long is an ip authenticated, if POPbeforeSMTP is used? davide, maybe you could change server.tab, that user can set the time by himself,like: EnableAuthSMTP-POP3-S [timeinseconds] and EnableAuthSMTP-POP31 for standard time. that would be great. greets soenke. - 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: aliases and domain filters
Yep, like i said, account resolution happens after filtering :) You have to put filters even on aliases. so if i have 2000 aliases for one account (zB webmaster@*), i have to create 2000 files in the filters directory? that is reallybad to handle, isn't it? and if i have an real account and some aliases for it, for what reason the filter should not be executed for the aliases, too? sorry, but i see no logic in there :-). greets soenke. - 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: aliases and domain filters
Can you give me a valid reason why should i add another database lookup ( that will take place later ) to fit your case ? hmm xmail could execute the filter if the mail is at its end: if no more internal redirects are done and the mail will be dropped in the pop3-mailbox or redirected to external account. i guess, then you have no more database lookups as if you first check for filter tab? and afaik you just have to add a few lines to code (is looked a little bit in the code, i mean SMAILFilterMessage). if so, we don't have do add a fake account for every filtered user. greets soenke. - 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: Aliases to external domains ...
After having reviewed the code i decided to not implement this feature because 1) aliases are meant as other names for local accounts 2) the same feature can be achieved by a useradd + usersetmproc with a redirect line. Yupp - i understand how to add external aliases in that way. But .. a) i have to read out and write the complete mailproc file (userget/setmproc) - in case of adding/deleting an internal alias, i just have to do a aliasadd/del - that is easier to handle than letting the ctrl-client(-program) (in my case my script) doing a complete rewrite of the file. b) why should be aliases just be ment for local accounts ? c) setting/getting the external redirections with aliasadd/aliaslist would be no new feature, but i guess, that you could implement it easier in ctrl client programs. I dont want to nerv you (i think you think something like that :-) ) - but i think that function would make xmail a bit easier to newbies and easier to administrate, cause we can control the redirect/aliases with one command. I am not giving up the hope. :-) - 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: Aliases to external domains ...
# cat custdomains/blah.com.tab redirect [EMAIL PROTECTED] Is it too difficult ?

One reaason could be because you can do it without adding extra code. Other users are doing it and, as far as i can see, they can survive.

Don't mean to stick my nose in here... but I don't believe this would a good idea mostly because xmail *must* be 100% RFC compliant. Heheh but think of all the AOL-Users (e.g.) in the world (rfc, is that something to eat??). they *need* user friendly messages (in their language). And if xmail gives you the possibility to change the messages, that doesn't mean that you have to do it (but you are able to). What i mean yes, it does...afair it does this after the number of delivery tries you've configured. i didnt find such a server variable in the server.tab/manual ... can you help me? thx soenke - 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]
