Hello Everyone,
Please help! with error: "550 user unknown"
I have installed Courier IMAP server using package from:
courier-0.38.1.20020509.tar.gz:
Configure and Installation were fine with:
./configure
make
make check
make install-strip
make install-configure
After modifying /usr/lib/courier/etc/authdaemonrc to have:
authmodulelist="authmysql" and authmysqlrc for MySQL related settings,
and
started daemons:
/usr/lib/courier/sbin/courier start
/usr/lib/courier/libexec/authlib/authdaemond start
/usr/lib/courier/sbin/esmtpd start
when sending emails to users I got the error: 550 user unknown
I created database/table as specified in the installation file. However,
not knowing if there is a command included with the package to create users,
i manually inserted an entry into the database:
insert into users (id, crypt, clear, home, name) values(1, 'xxyy', 'xxyy',
'/web/users/test', '[EMAIL PROTECTED]');
and created directory /web/users/test and "bin/maildirmake
/web/users/test/Maildir" to create user test's home directory
If i shutdown mysql daemon and attempt to send an email to the server, the
error i get is: "450 service temporarily unavailable", and when mysql is
started, and at mysql prompt: show processlist; i do see esmtpd made
connection mysql successfully.
Note: I also added entry "myhost.mydomain.com" into hosteddomains and
locals, followed by issuing the command makehosteddomains inside ~/sbin of
courier.
Your help is much appreciated!
Kenny
