hello all, Hello Davide I've just set up a fresh xmail on a linux box. The mailing list feature worked as expected as long as there were no aliasdomains defined. I'm sending a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] But the local domain's name is 'apsserver' As soon as I have the line

and there _is_ another leak: I'm using psync to retreive all mail from an external server while I'm dynamically bound to the internet. A mail to my testlist is sent to the list even though the sender does not appear in the mlusers list. There's no errors at all... I don't see a way to

Jeff, Smtp auth is enabled by default, and there does not seem to be a way to turn it off (why would you?), however I know the EnableAuthSMTP-POP3 1 is configurable and is turned on by default. *ALL* my users are told to use smtp auth. It gets them around grey listing and they can send

Ah ha! Thanks, Rob - that makes sense now. The behavior I am seeing is expected. I'm glad that SMTP authorization works alongside with pop before smtp, and as you said, why would anyone want to turn it off. I'll start promoting it since it can coexist with the popb4. I didn't promote

Hello, I was wondering if anyone could tell me how I would go about setting up a distribution list in xmail. I want it so that all mail sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] will get sent to all users I have defined. I tried achieving this with a mailing list but because internet users are not members

Nah! ASSP (anti spam smtp proxy) is actually a great opensource anti-spam proxy tool that (as it tunrs out) runs under Linux, FreeBSD and Windows. It loads a specified number of bytes of a given mail then refuses the connection based on a bayesian determination of spam, RBL, etc. instead

That was my guess too (that ASSP was the culprit), as I mentioned in my first mails about it, but I thought I would check and see if anyone had any ideas. The strange part is the timing issue - across a LAN no problem, but locally certain email clients fail to do popb4smtp (and other ones do

2005-07-06 Thread Rob Arends
Jeff, your email below answers it. How can xmail correlate the popb4smtp, if the smtp is actually ASSP. POPb4 only works if the same server is running both port 25 and port 110. In your case xmail will see the smtp connection coming from ASSP, not the MUA. Rob :-) -Original Message-

Hmmm - that makes sense. I wonder why Thunderbird has no problem doing popb4, though ... it works as before doing popb4. ASSP does something a bit unusual in that it operates as a proxy, so i'm not certain it is technically providing SMTP but might be doing some sort of passthrough. XMail
