I would like to know if tmda-ofmipd should be able to handle outgoing
mail sent from a virtual mail account. From the tmda-ofmipd output, it
looks like authentication of the user is working, but then I get an
unhandled exception I think before the mail is forwarded to my MTA.
This is what I'm using to run tmda-ofmipd.
tmda-ofmipd -d -A '/usr/local/bin/couriercheckpassword -s imap --stdin
-- /bin/true' -u nobody -c /home/vmail
This is what tmda-ofmipd is showing me when I try to send mail.

My setup is:
qmail 1.03 with starttls-smtp-auth patch
courier IMAP 1.5.3
TMDA 0.62
All the mail accounts set up on my system are virtual, there are no
entries in /etc/passwd for my mail users.
The couriercheckpassword program is a checkpassword-like program. I've
successfully tested the program for both system and virtual user
accounts using this:
qmail-popup domain.com couriercheckpassword -s imap -- id
From the tmda-ofmipd trace, it looks to me like the initial
authentication of the user is working fine, but then tmda-ofmipd is
failing because its looking for user information in the /etc/passwd
file. This is a problem if it is a virtual user without an /etc/passwd
entry who is trying to send the mail.
Any thoughts on whether this should work or not? If it should, any
thoughts on why it isn't?
Andrew
