The recipient validation system (just) follows qmail's procedure for determining where to send a message (the same procedure used by qmail-smtpd, qmail-send and qmail-local). In other words, it starts with rcpthosts, tracks through virtualdomains, parses through the "assign" cdb file and finally ends up looking at the home directory of the user (virtual or real). Once there, it reads .qmail files to figure out where the message will go and verifies the location is real before the message is accepted. If the .qmail file gives a forwarding address, the whole process is repeated to make sure the destination address is valid.
If the user is controlled by vpopmail, it will verify the address (or alias) using the vpopmail binaries. I don't know anything about kerio; is that a vpopmail competitor? -- Sam Clippinger On Jan 10, 2014, at 10:10 AM, Eric Shubert <e...@shubes.net> wrote: > In the forthcoming spamdyke release, will spamdyke be able to verify the > account of only vpopmail, or will it work with other/any email software > (via smtp)? > > I don't mean to push, but have a spamdyke installation fronting a kerio > mail system where this would be desirable, and would like to know if > spamdyke will be able to handle this or if I need to come up with > something else. > > Thanks Sam. > > -- > -Eric 'shubes' > > _______________________________________________ > spamdyke-users mailing list > spamdyke-users@spamdyke.org > http://www.spamdyke.org/mailman/listinfo/spamdyke-users
