This just generates useless extra mail traffic, since I am not at all interested in these bounces. The bounce is only usefull for my customer (e.g. the From: header).

Jan, I use mailproc.tab external delivery for all accounts that I need imap for. The imap server that I use (dbmail - www.dbmail.org) has a special program that you can use for this. The line in mailproc.tab looks like this: external 0 1 /usr/xmail/dbm.sh @@FILE @@RCPT@@FROM The shell script calls the dbmail-smtp program with the right parameters. You do have to create the users/domains also in dbmail but this is without all aliases/redirects on domain and user level, xmail takes care of those, so it is not so complicated for me.

Re: New XMail WAI with webmail -- help wanted
For those of you interested, I released a component today that allows you to use xmail just like you can use the Microsoft smtp server with the Microsoft CDO component on windows. The only noteworthy difference is that since it is written in Visual Basic I can not us To as a property. Therefor you have to use To_ or recipients. If someone of you knows how to fix this then please let me know. The source code is available and licenced under the GPL. You can download this component and/or the source code for it from: http://www.netrex.nl/xmailstuff/index.html - Dick - Original Message - From: Michal Altair Valasek [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: 'Dick van der Kaaden' [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, November 04, 2001 12:26 AM Subject: RE: New XMail WAI with webmail -- help wanted Hello, yes, I have interest. If you can give me your code, it would be very appreciated. If it has reasonable size (up to 500 kB), can you send it by e-mail? If it is greater, can you put it to some FTP or web site? Currently I am sick, in bed and connecting only trough cellular phone so is not as simple to download large mail.

Re: New XMail WAI with webmail -- help wanted
Michal, I wrote a component to send email earlier this year but never released it. It basically mimics the CDO component from microsoft. If you want the source then let me know and I send it to you. It is written in vb 6 and handles attachments ,mime and html stuff.

I am currently writing new version of my XMail Web Administration Interface (http://www.altair2000.net/software/xmail-wai/). I want also add the webmail capability to this software. I have very simple interface, which cannot handle attachments, html messages, non-ascii charsets etc. Is there anyone who can help with these things? Basically its about decoding RFC822 message format. Do you have any such routines in Visual Basic or VBScript? Are you capable to write it in Active Server Pages environment?

Re: problem message
Title: RE: problem message Tony, I can only suggest a few things you could try (you might have tried them already...) You could try todeliver to local accounts. If that works then the mailformat is ok and xmail should be able to deliver them to the outside world Have xmail forward mails via a smtp relay command: - first toanother smtp server in your office (this wil tell you xmail can deliver at all) -if that works then sendto asmtp server outside the office on the internet (use a ip address instead of a host name for the relay to prevent dns trouble). (this will tell you if there is a firewall issue) - if that works use a hostname instead of a ip address. (this will tell you if there is a dns issue) - Dick - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, August 13, 2001 10:18 PM Subject: RE: problem message I am completely stumped with this one install of xmail.
