I do this all the time. It's just an alias: add this entry to aliases.tab domain.comsteve.* [EMAIL PROTECTED] If you have a catchall address like this: domain.com* [EMAIL PROTECTED] Then the entry for steve should appear prior to the catchall one. The forwarding with wildcards forwards to the first address that matches in the aliases.tab file - of course aliases.tab gets checked only after checking for an existing mailbox for the user. It works for forwarding the mail to an address not handled by the local xmail server as well. -Seth -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Rob Arends Sent: Sunday, June 15, 2003 6:29 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [xmail] Accepting mail for wildcard users.

I think I found the same thing that you are experiencing. If you require smtp authentication and you have more than one domain defined, then you always have to specify full [EMAIL PROTECTED] as the username for smpt authentication even for the domain defined as the default pop3 domain.

[xmail] Re: open relay
When you perform the test, you have to tell the test email to send to an email address that is NOT handled by the server you are testing. If you register at abuse.net, there is a check box i think to have them generate an email address to use for the test. it will still send the results to the address you specify. The reason the server looked like an open relay is that it accepted the test mail, but it accepted the test mail because it was addressed to a domain handled by the server. -Seth -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Benny Sent: Tuesday, March 04, 2003 3:11 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [xmail] Re: open relay Here is the email I get from the test site http://abuse.net - This is a test of third-party mail relay, generated via the Network Abuse Clearinghouse at http://www.abuse.net.

Try unchecking the option to login using Secure Password Authentication. I believe OL XP supports APOP, but OL 2000 does not.

[xmail] Re: mails arrive the day after
First place to look is in the headers of one of those messages received. Look at the received date/time and see what server the mail is getting delayed at. If it's waiting at the sending server, it could be just temporary issues. If this is a new dns entry, it may not have been propated when the mail was trying to go through. Also, try to verify that your server is staying connected to the internet - if the server doesn't respond on the first attempt, most mail servers will attempt several times at varying intervals before bouncing the message as being undeliverable. If the received headers show that the mail is getting to your server in a short timeframe, then the problem might be an issue with pop clients connecting to get the mail. If you can't find anything, try posting the headers here and maybe we can see something. -Seth -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Serbulent Sertoglu Sent: Saturday, January 25, 2003 6:46 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [xmail] mails arrive the day after Hi, I just began to use xmail server and setting up my domains.

Is there a setting to lock out an IP address after a number of consecutive failed logins? Someone was trying to guess passwords on my server last week (unsuccessfully).

I saw this by going through my POP3 logs. What I'm looking for is a way to block logins from an ip that has issued more than say 5 failed logins in a row - even if they were 5 attempts at different accounts.
