The services are split out a fair amount - there's machines dedicated to nothing but incoming SMTP. others for spam scanning, others for client access, etc. There are a couple of each type of these setups as well - two separate data centers have a setup like the above each for the free email accounts, and there is a paid service as well, where similar setups are running for the paid customers. Obviously density of the paid versus free accounts on the boxes has a large disparity - you want the paid customers to have better service than the free ones :) All said and done between the two data centers, adding everything up, somewhere in the neighborhood of 700TB of email store with the ability to double that capacity in an hour or less.

So while this give you the ability to effectively cc every message sent/received by an individual user or domain, it doesn't really appear to go above and beyond that. To be honest, I really don't have any experience with archival solutions so maybe my expectations are in the wrong place - however it seems like you would need another component to be able to offer an archival solution, doesn't it? Some form of management system for one - and then a way to designate what you wanted archived. For example, when I hear the word archive a few different things come to mind: 1) Individuals or companies that need to keep an absolute record of everything - TAPS is probably ideal for this (especially because it is transparent to the user) 2) People that want to save certain things for a long period of time, but don't need everything saved. Right now I have some customers with mailboxes right around 2GB on a server using Courier (I've installed Dovecot and got everything ready to migrate, just reluctant to do so in the event that it screws up all of the client subscriptions and causes mail to be re-downloaded). This server has plenty of room to grow, but eventually people will get to the point that either their mailboxes are so large that they become slow to access, or I will end up with a very very full server (both of which are likely to happen down the road some time from now, but it is something I'd like to address before it becomes a problem). So I suppose my true question here is, what are my best options to consider when trying to build a system that needs to be robust and meet the needs of the customer as technology changes? Casey Price I think your concerns about large mailboxes will become unfounded once you get dovecot implemented. I've seen mailboxes in excess of 6G with no problems. When it comes to managing email, I don't think there's a one size fits all solution. If you can define what your requirements are, I expect that it wouldn't be very difficult to implement a solution. That being said, I've not seen MailArchiva at all. It might make a nice addition to QMT at some point. Just scanning real quick and wanted to drop a note for the archives - if you get into large mail stores (I'm talking 5TB of mail on the small side), you'll be looking at some type of storage array to store the mail on, and access using NFS or similar. In these cases, you'll want to use the mbox format versus maildir. mbox's large file method is more manageable by back end storage arrays versus maildir (NFS getattrs, lookups, etc. are expensive in resources for the backend system/array). Depending on what solution you use for your backend storage will determine when/if you need to make that change. And for those interested, I'm currently working on a 8 million user Qmail installation, with 90TB of email stored. Performance is interesting on this setup, and the smallest change affects exponentially. - Qmailtoaster is sponsored by Vickers Consulting Group (www.vickersconsulting.com) Vickers Consulting Group offers Qmailtoaster support and installations.

The ISP array will have essentially the mailstore in common - each server, for the most part, acts independently, only storing the mail in a shared location. With the exception of the DB replication, the rest should be easy to migrate to with almost no impact to your clients - as you add a new server, just change the DNS record. After a few days for DNS propagation, users will be using the new server added. The QMT download mirrors work a lot like that, using DNS roundrobin. As someone donates a mirror, I just add it to the A record. DNS handles the load balancing between the mirrors for me.

Re: [qmailtoaster] Migrating from Qmail Rocks install on Solaris to Qmail Toaster on CentOS
On 09/26/2011 05:45 PM, Casey wrote: I'm trying to migrate all of the domains, user accounts, and mail from an old Sun Ultra2 running Solaris 9 with vpopmail 5.4.10 and mysql Ver. 14.7 distribution 4.1.21 to a newer server running CentOS 5 with Qmail Toaster. There are a couple of issues I'm running into - the current server is setup with vpopmail install on its own set of disk arrays (/u1), and then as that drive ran out of room, /u2 and /u3 were added, domains were moved to those partitions and symlinks created to point to /u1 The other problem is that vpopmail is compiled with many domains, big user dirs, and learn passwords. The version of vpopmail on the new server (5.4.17) is compiled without those features, which can easily be resolved by recompiling, which I've done but I really want to standardize things so that I don't have to recompile every time I want to update. This sounds like a rather manual process, unless someone else has done something similar and can offer insight/scripts. From what I'm thinking (shooting from the hip): You may try a dump of the database (or vuserinfo scripted) to get the usernames (emails) and passwords. This in a text file can be scripted to run in a loop to create the users on the new server. As far as the emails - rsync them over to the new server.

Re: [qmailtoaster] Migrating from Qmail Rocks install on Solaris to Qmail Toaster on CentOS
On 09/26/2011 07:19 PM, Casey wrote: Thanks Jake. I'm hoping to make this process as automated as possible... What I'm wondering, is does the database need to be converted somehow to work properly on the new server since the old server is running mysql 4 and the new one is mysql 5? Also, in theory, if I recompiled vpopmail to include the same features as the old server is running, and then modified the sql dump file to replace the domain paths from the old server with the correct ones on the new server (/home/vpopmail/domains), and then rsync'd the mail over and kept it in the same type of structure as it was on the old server...shouldn't that work? When I first tried doing that, I had copied over all of the config files, hadn't copied all of the data from the domain folders, and hadn't done any compiling beyond enabling many domains. Like I mentioned before, I was able to get vuserinfo to recognize the accounts with the quotas, username, password, encrypted password, etc...but the major problem was that vqadmin would show the domain, but wouldn't recognize that there were accounts associated with it. Sure, you can do it this way, but you'll be doing the work twice. Once to modify the stock packages now to ease the migration, and then again to standardize your environment to this project. IMHO it would be time best spent to do standardize it now, and forget worrying about standardizing it later. I guess I can kind of break this project up into to parts...my main concern is getting everything moved to the new server, and then once thats done I'd like to standardize things so that in the future if I want to migrate I can just use the backup/restore scripts. I'm not sure if this is better to try to tackle all at once, or two break up into multiple tasks. It just seems like theres gotta be a way that this can be done without a ton of scripting and manual entry - especially considering i have everything in the database, I just need to make sure that the domains/accounts are mapped to the correct location in the file system. So if you wrote a script on the source box to do something like for each vuserinfo and walk the directory containing the users to get a text output of the username (email address) and password, the ran a script to vadduser each line in that text output you would have all of the users recreated on the destination server. Then rsync each user's dir to the new location (ie: rsync -avz --progress -e ssh /u/domain.com/ user@destination:/home/vpopmail/domain/) and you would have the user on the new machine, and a copy of their mailstore on the destination server as well. Maybe keep a looped script running to rsync the mailstore using the --delete option to keep a sync'ed copy of the mailstore on the destination until you have had a chance to test it out and feel comfortable changing DNS over. Then you don't have to futz with DB structures, translations, changes, etc. And you have the added benefit of moving 1 domain at a time if you want, so you can make the transition in a staged method. Another question...theres been alot of talk on here about enabling many domains vs. disabling it. As far as I know, in the current version it is disabled, so when you create a new domain it creates a table for that domain, opposed to putting them all under the vpopmail table. Any idea how this will be setup in the future? Our existing system has it enabled, and we have 300+ domains with alot of users, so naturally it seems easier to try to keep things the same on our migration, but that also means recompiling vpopmail every time we want to update, so are we better off trying to convert our many domains database to the current format? So I have not seen any performance gain either way. The only benefit thus far has been to ease writing of programs in using one table vs many. I personally have a machine that has 450 domains, 4200 users, and processes somewhere in the ballpark of 2 million emails a month (inbound and outbound). This is on a P4 3Ghz with 2G of RAM. Most are POP3, and I've had to tweak that to keep from hitting the maximum number of connections, plus a few other tweaks, but nothing MAJOR. If we do make a DB change in the future (and we probably will, since a lot of people ask for it and there is no negative impact of changing) it will be for a different version of QMT. If, and this is probably not very likely, we change the DB format for the 1.3 branch, we will have conversion scripts in place to assist with migrating beforehand.

There was someone on the spamdyke list asking about how to perhaps throttle/block spammers with smtp 25/587 access (authenticated).

So I ssh'ed in and made a qmailctl stat. Every service looked like this: supervise: fatal: unable to acquire log/supervise/lock: read-only file system So I tried to qmailctl stop and start, but neither of them worked. I decided to reboot. And then I lost connection to the box. After I made it to the datacenter, i found out that it was stuck in the boot sequence, waiting for the root password to be entered to make a manual fsck. I entered passwd, ran 'fsck /' and it fixed some inodes and stuff. It finished booted and everything went to normal. I forced a fsck with 'shutdown -Fr now' and found nothing. So the questions: 1. I found nothing about thise read-only error on the archives. Anyone has any ideas of what might have happened or where to look for possible causes? 2. Is there a way to configure CentOS to do this fsck on boot completely unattended? So that it it reboots again there is no need to go to the NOC to enter root password and run the fsck manually? This is not QMT specific. Look in your messages file for for medium errors - what most likely happened is that there were some bad sectors on the disk, which ended up timing out and causing the system to mount it read only. As far as automtically doing this on a boot (when needed), yes and no. Yes if the system is not in too bad of shape - no if the system is bricked. In your /etc/fstab file, the fifth column is your dump options, and the sixth column your filesystem check options. Dump is for backups, so you can ignore. The sixth column for the filesystem check - that's the one you want. When the system boots up, it determines what order to do a filesystem check (if neede) by the number in the sixth column. If it's a zero, it is not checked, and if there was an error on that system is will be unmounted or read only when the system boots up. I normally use a 1 for my root filesystem to get that checked first, but that's my option. - Qmailtoaster is sponsored by Vickers Consulting Group (www.vickersconsulting.com) Vickers Consulting Group offers Qmailtoaster support and installations.

Segregating your data into multiple tables was always the way I learned to obtain performance. The nature of the requests from QMT are probably not those that would require any performance tuning - the only one I've ever run into is the default number of connections. So I'm willing to table that point if there are other mitigating factors. So what are the advantages/benefits you are thinking will be gained from a single table? I agree with Eric that it probably will not make much of a difference with regards to performance. However, a lot of applications that might want to have access to the email user database are not all that flexible and do not support having different domains in different tables. E.g. using courier-auth with mysql or SOGo with mysql-backend, etc. There are other examples. For my own use, I have written an accounting backend that also cycles through domains and users, etc. to produce detail-information to be attached to invoices and that, too, is just way easier when having all in one table. Granted, that may be simplistic design on the parts of those programs, but hey, it works and it is way easier to recompile vpopmail to achieve compatibility than patch those programs. Also, whenever there is any database schema change in order for vpopmail to be upgraded, it is much easier to upgrade that one table than to find all the tables that hold domains and path those. Last but not least, mysql (and other databases) have length-limitations for domain names. I always wondered, but never tried, what would happen if I added a domain with a name longer than 'max-table-name-length' to the database? I think the current limit for mysql is 32 chars and domain names can be longer. I have never tried a FQDN longer than 32 chars - RFC 1035 implies (if I'm reading it correctly) of 255 chars: 2.3.4. Size limits Various objects and parameters in the DNS have size limits. They are listed below. Some could be easily changed, others are more fundamental. labels 63 octets or less names 255 octets or less TTL positive values of a signed 32 bit number. UDP messages512 octets or less 3. DOMAIN NAME SPACE AND RR DEFINITIONS 3.1. Name space definitions Domain names in messages are expressed in terms of a sequence of labels. Each label is represented as a one octet length field followed by that number of octets. Since every domain name ends with the null label of the root, a domain name is terminated by a length byte of zero. The high order two bits of every length octet must be zero, and the remaining six bits of the length field limit the label to 63 octets or less. To simplify implementations, the total length of a domain name (i.e., label octets and label length octets) is restricted to 255 octets or less. Although labels can contain any 8 bit values in octets that make up a label, it is strongly recommended that labels follow the preferred syntax described elsewhere in this memo, which is compatible with existing host naming conventions. Name servers and resolvers must compare labels in a case-insensitive manner (i.e., A=a), assuming ASCII with zero parity. Non-alphabetic codes must match exactly. Should be easy enough to change in 2.x. Thanks for the app examples for the vpopmail DB schema. So the change seems to hinge around opinion and interop with other applications. I went back over the helper apps and can't find anywhere in the code where a change may make something currently supplied stop working, so I'll roll the change into the 2.x test and we'll see what shakes loose. - Qmailtoaster is sponsored by Vickers Consulting Group (www.vickersconsulting.com) Vickers Consulting Group offers Qmailtoaster support and installations.

The mailstore is indeed in a different tarball, so if the folder existed previously it should be in one of those backups. - Qmailtoaster is sponsored by Vickers Consulting Group (www.vickersconsulting.com) Vickers Consulting Group offers Qmailtoaster support and installations.

I just seem to recall this being discussed a bit, some time ago, and concluding (perhaps with no consensus) that having all domains in a single table made more sense. So I'm still curious as to what you think the benefits are. Segregating your data into multiple tables was always the way I learned to obtain performance. The nature of the requests from QMT are probably not those that would require any performance tuning - the only one I've ever run into is the default number of connections. So I'm willing to table that point if there are other mitigating factors. So what are the advantages/benefits you are thinking will be gained from a single table? - Qmailtoaster is sponsored by Vickers Consulting Group (www.vickersconsulting.com) Vickers Consulting Group offers Qmailtoaster support and installations.

Just curious if anyone else has pushed they system to the edge of hardware limitations before. - I have not. However, I have maxed out the system bus, which happened well before the HDD reached full capacity. South bridge to be specific. I would expect that to be where the bottleneck is. Given that the SB handles all PCI devices, I would expect that optimizing network traffic could open up a little bandwidth for disk i/o. Here is a recent post from Richard Wilson on the Phoenix LUG list that I'm interested to try: All, I ran into this some time ago and thought I should share it -- on a server running iptables that's got a heavy network load, these can make a big difference. Netfilter (iptables is the main interface command) is a stateful firewall so it tracks connections. This means that it allocates a certain amount of real RAM when the system boots to hold the Connection Tracking Table. Resizing this table requires a reboot. Something you NEVER want to see is console messages that say: ip_conntrack: table full, dropping packet When I ran into these, I had to do some digging, and found out how to resize the conntrack table, as well as how to decrease the time out value for connections (default for Red Hat is 5 days!). Changing the time out value doesn't require a reboot; changing the table size to an appropriate value for your workload does. Under Red Hat/Fedora/Centos, in /etc/sysctl.conf (takes effect at boot time): # Set Conntrack time out to 12 hours net.ipv4.netfilter.ip_conntrack_tcp_timeout_established = 43200 # Set the size of the conntrack table (old and new versions): net.ipv4.ip_conntrack_max = XXX net.ipv4.netfilter.ip_conntrack_max = XXX Dynamically change the time out value on the running system (note spaces around the = in the sysctl file, but not here!): sysctl -w net.ipv4.netfilter.ip_conntrack_tcp_timeout_established=43200 These helped, but what really made the biggest difference was this: I found that the conntrack table had a LOT of entries for traffic from 127.0.0.1 (!!) Yes, netfilter will track ALL network traffic. If your kernel is 2.6.9 or above, this command should work to tell netfilter to not track localhost traffic: iptables -t raw -A OUTPUT -o lo -j NOTRACK After doing this on several mail relay servers we saw the number of entries in the conntrack table drop to about half what they had been. Of course, they don't drop right away -- existing table entries have to time out. Hopefully this may save some of you some headaches. Richard Wilson Thanks Eric. Not the same problem I'm running into, but good information. I was not aware of the RHEL 5 day timeout. Interesting. My scenario is by using a RAMdisk for email scanning, I've reduced the scan time by 1000%. All good, except now the system accepts and scans too many messages and can't flush them to the spindle fast enough. I end up with thousands of messages waiting to be delivered to local account hung in the queue. I downsized the size of the RAMdisk to throttle this (when it fills up it can't accept new messages and tells the remote to try later), but this is not ideal. I'm in remedial now to move to a fast server - was on a P4 3.2G with 2G of RAM and an ATA/133 disk. Moving to something a little more robust, with faster disks :) Anyway, was curious as to if anyone else had hit similar situations.

To address this issue, we have added two new datacenters and this will provide us with redundancy and failover systems in the event of further Denial of Service (DDOS) attacks.

Completely irrelevant.

[qmailtoaster] Wiki updates
I am revamping a lot of the wiki internals today. Please note than any wiki edits/adds made after 11pm EDT on April 22, 2011 will not be persistent. I took a snapshot of the database at that time so I could work from a local copy and once I finish working on it and cleaning it up I'll overwrite the old database with my edited one. In other words, if you add or edit anything after 11pm EST last night, it will be lost. I expect to have this completed this evening - it has until I finish smoking a brisket and family comes over :) Once they all leave I'll propagate the changes up to the real server.

Sort of a wiki custodian. If you'd like to delgate this, why not solicit some help on the list? This was a conversation regarding the spam on the wiki. I currently ban 10-20 accounts a week for posting spam. I am going to take the wiki down one evening this week after work (after 1am EDT) and do some maintenance. One change will be a change from the math captcha to a graphical captcha. If anyone has visual disabilities that this hinders, send me a message off-list. Once the maintenance is done, I will be looking for volunteers to help keep the wiki clean. I'm adding in some measures to make it more difficult for spammers to spam up the wiki, but as we all know nothing is foolproof. If you are interested, reply off-thread.

I had to rebuild and reinstall the binary rpm, then do simscanmk (cdb). Is this for all clamav updates, or just for pre-0.96.1 updates to a current update? Does t require the recompile every time, or just when going from pre-0.96.1 to anything newer one time only? - Qmailtoaster is sponsored by Vickers Consulting Group (www.vickersconsulting.com) Vickers Consulting Group offers Qmailtoaster support and installations.

Jake, if you make md5 (or sha or whatever) files available for the packages, I'll modify qtp-newmodel to check them and re-download when this problem occurs. I'll take a look at this - I'll need to modify some of the other download scripts as well. Lots of things to consider - if MD5 fails, how does the client get the package? (probably fail back to my monolithic server since this will be easier than trying to flush the DNS cache). Take this over to the devel list, please, and we'll start a conversation there and maybe get some other talent to modify some of the existing scripts as well.
