 Hello David,
 
 I have sent a request to [EMAIL PROTECTED] earlier today, in

Very strange. Perhaps the filter at xmailserver.org is not seeing the

 Hello,
 
 I solved the problem by deleting all the handmade entries for the 2nd
 domain and used CtrlClnt then it worked.
 Actually it took me quite some time to figure out how to make a user who
 is entitled to make changes via CtrlClnt, it was not clear to me from
 the description of the basic xmail configuration in the html-handbook,
 especially since my CTRLACCOUNTS.TAB had 0 length from the beginning and
 therefore no exampel-user.
 I guess my mistake in edditing the configfiles by hand was that I did
 not know the meaning of the user-id, resulting in not using unique
 user-ids (multiple copy of user-id 1)  
 
 Thank You anyways, without all the material available in xmailserver.org
 an d olso some other postings from this mailinglist I could not have
 solved my problem.

I really need to start an XMail book with Davide :-P

Nice weekend :)

I created a program to authenticate, add, remove and edit mail users into
a mysql table using the userauth xmail feature. I was getting problems
with existing applications because they slow down listing operations when
we have lots of users in xmail. This way, having the users into a mysql
table I don't need to query xmail for listing.
Now I am planning to handle ml users, but I need to know if there's a way
to pass usertype to my program via userauth feature, so I can store this
field into mysql table and don't need to query xmail while listing users
with their respective usertypes.

There is no way to pass that to the userauth binary. I am pretty sure
though, that the XMail lookup inside its DB, is faster than an external
binary execution plus a DB connection and query.
 
 
 An application that manages xmail users and collect users' list connecting to 
 xmail admin port is several times slower than an application that uses sql 
 queries. Because of this, I created a binary program to authenticate, add, 
 remove and edit xmail users into mysql. So, the application that manages the 
 users (I mean the user interface not the binary program), make all queries 
 to the mysql and connect to xmail admin port only for changes.
 I did this after testing umpl in a xmail server with more than 2000 accounts. 
 When you open umpl, it expends minutes before showing users' list.
 With my solution, I can see users' list as soon as I open the application.
 Did you get what I mean?
 And because this, I would appreciate a way to let my binary know if the user 
 being created is a normal user (U) or a mailing list user (M) to place this 
 information into the sql DB, so the application front-end (users' manager) 
 can distinguish among them.

Little bit OT:

We use _ONE_ XMail machine (with 2GB of RAM) with ~5k domains and ~20k
users, virus+spam protection and it performs very well. With the cache
files of XMail, I don't think there is much performance improvement, as
I can't see any in our actual setup.

I guess SQL will be interesting if we make the step to a multi-server setup.

Maybe another MTA with native SQL implementation (postfix e. g.) would
be a better choice for this task, but I'll have to look into it.

 I think I observed something like this also. But not with registering =
 but with sending to the list, maybe because of a signed email.

I've seen this happening only if the user reply using HTML or if the 
mailer adds extra chars at the beginning of the line (like '' for 
example).

I think it was his problem since I didn't do anything, and now I see 
successful attempts from his side in my logs.
