Re: Case in email address

If I read the RFCs correctly, case does not matter in the mailbox (left side) part, but should be preserved. I don't know of any mail server that fails to deliver mail if case changes. I never paid attention to see if case is preserved.

, but the argument here is that this just is about parts of the headers and not the email address. Thanks! Matt -Original Message- From: Milivoj Ivkovic [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, May 11, 2001 5:06 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Case in email address If I read the RFCs

Re: Case in email address

local-part is up to the receiving system, and so intermediate MTAs must preserve the case of local-part. It then recommends that MTA implementors treat local-part as case insensitive when they are the final destination MTA, but does not require this. You are correct of course, I should have

Re: Why does POP3 log inetd ... exit status 1

Does Postfix deliver to maildirs or Unix mailboxes? It does deliver to Maildir, and that's how I have it configured. If not to maildirs, then qmail's pop3 service can't possibly work. That might explain your exit 1. But it does work correctly. That's why I'm annoyed to see exit 1 in the

Why does POP3 log inetd ... exit status 1

Since I had no reply, I try re-posting with a new subject line. I cannot believe nobody knows the reason of this problem, but the only reply I got so far was from someone who had the problem but then switched to courier-imap. There must be a simpler solution, since I don't need IMAP. Several

RE: Why does POP3 log inetd ... exit status 1

Thank you for the replies. Why are you running with inetd anyway? [...] I would make the switch to tcpserver (check out www.lifewithqmail.org for It is Life with Qmail which I used for help in my setup. It says: "Typically, qmail-popup is run via inetd or tcpserver" "For a busier service, use

qmail-popup syslog messages

Hi, Several people asked this on the list before, but I have not found any reply. I hope to have better luck... :-) Every time the mailbox is checked with POP3, syslog reports: Mar 7 15:40:48 net1 inetd[26701]: pid 26937: exit status 1 Other than the annoying message, everything seems

Is there way to use an NT domain controller's user database to authenticate POP3 users? Thanks.

Urgent: kill spammer

A spammer is using my mail server. (I know, it shouldn't be an open relay but I'll get back to this later). qmail has many messages in the queue. I would like to redirect all the messages in the queue to a Perl filter. The filter would check if it's one of the spams. Now: Valid mail would go

Re: Urgent: kill spammer

And an additional question: how to temporarily stop all non-local deliveries? qmail still tries to send out these spam messages it has in the queue. I would like it to stop, but continue to accept mail (which may be an answer to this) and do the local deliveries.

Re: Urgent: kill spammer

Don't send back spam to spammers: their To: emails are usually wrong, and you'd get back bounces. In this case, the Return-Path and From look wrong (random user with letters and numbers), but To: looks right: always [EMAIL PROTECTED]. The only good choice should be to stop relaying openly. As

warning: unable to unlink remote/x/xxxxx in maillog

I have tons of "warning: unable to unlink remote/7/14474" in my maillog for various numbers after remote/. Anybody knows why qmail wouldn't be able to delete these?

Re: Urgent: kill spammer
