Hello,
I'm having a weird problem with procmail and vdeliver. When I have procmail deliver a message directly to the Maildir, everything works fine. When I have procmail hand the message off to vdeliver, the message bounces with "lseek error 29 / lseek errno-29". I searched the vchkpw archives at --> http://www.mail-archive.com/vchkpw@inter7.com/ I searched on "lseek" and didn't find anything directly matching my problem, although I did see other posts that seem to indicate this is possible and that people are doing it. And then I saw the following post (Re: Bad code in vdelivermail) and I'm wondering if this is what's causing my problems. http://www.mail-archive.com/vchkpw@inter7.com/msg07117.html I'm testing on a single account but I do want to deploy this on a domain wide basis, and really don't want to create >500 individual .qmail files. Also, delivering directly to Maildirs seems to bypass some of the more desired features of vdelivermail, like quotas. I'm not a programmer; I dabble in perl and shell scripts but I'm way over my head when it comes to rummaging around in the intestines of something like vdeliver.c. :) Does anyone have any suggestions? Patches? Tips? Advice? In the off chance that I've screwed up something in my setup, here's what I've done. I'd be grateful for any advice here, too. :) Software versions --> Qmail 1.03 with the QMAILQUEUE patch Vpopmail 5.0 Procmail 3.15.2 RH Linux 6.2 The account I'm testing with is [EMAIL PROTECTED]; it has a .qmail file with the procmail/vdeliver calls. Here are the .qmail and procmailrc files I'm using. .qmail-lisatest --> |/var/qmail/bin/preline /usr/bin/procmail -m /home/vpopmail/domains/pekin.net/procmail/lisatest/procmailrc | /home/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' bounce-no-mailbox (All of the above is on one line) procmailrc --> #DEFAULT = "/home/vpopmail/domains/pekin.net/6/lisatest/Maildir/" LOGFILE = "/home/vpopmail/domains/pekin.net/procmail/lisatest/procmail.log" LOGABSTRACT = "all" VERBOSE = "on" :0 | This is a pretty simple recipe; it doesn't do anything to the message (yet) and it's only supposed to write to STDOUT, where presumably vdeliver takes over. When I have procmail deliver directly to the Maildir, everything works fine. When I have procmail hand off to vdelivermail, the message bounces with the following error --> Hi. This is the qmail-send program at caswyn.pekin.net. I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses. This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: lseek error 29 lseek errno=29 The procmail log for that session seems perfectly normal --> procmail: [19455] Thu Nov 15 13:13:04 2001 procmail: Assigning "LASTFOLDER=|" From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Nov 15 19:13:04 2001 Subject: Testing ....
