Hi
We have Installed Qmail and configured . It is Working fine. Now we need
to Authenticate SMTP connections. How to go about? Is there any way to
authenticate using unix password /etc/passwd
While I was going through archives I saw SMTP authentication using
RADIUS. Please give the detail

So are tests 6, 10, 12, 16, and 17. All of them presume a certain

Hi,
I know there are a _bunch_ of mail administrators out there on this list, and

It looks to me that many machines running qmail will die on test 6.
I tried my personal email server, one I do consulting for, the one at
abuse.net, and muncher.math.uic.edu. It looks like all of them fail at
Test 6.
However when I ran the test on vix's mailer, it passed all the tests.

We build the virtualuserdomains,locals,rcpthosts and assign file from an Informix SQL
database that we authenticate the users against. It's an easy match to generate a list
of legal addresses that qmail-smtpd could check against.
Anyway I think the database should be build from assign and virt

I'm very interested in this issue, specially since we recently started to check
request to our mailservers against rbl.maps.vix.com and relays.orbs.org. I've missed
that functionality in qmail to reject the user in the first session attempt, and not
to mention all the bounces.
Please let me kn

I don't think so.

Not on Solaris, at least. I've been running qmail for quite some time
with executable stack turned off and haven't seen any trouble.

What is the max connections you can set for tcpserver? Currently we are running about 500, but we are going to turn it up to 1000 today to increase performance. Does tcpserver have any objections to this? Also, perhaps foremost, from a scalability standpoint--will it hit a per

It is an OS issue if stack pages are marked executable. Normal
user-land programs don't get a say in this. Your OS might or might

for heavy smtp traffic don't use inetd which disables services for a while
when the load on that service is high.
