The list manager already puts the help address in each message.
Writing the help address will get you the instructions for
unsubscribing.

I was being ironic.
hi folks,
I want to setup an qmail mailserver on a RedHat 6.0 System and I've
still downloaded the qmail RPMs.
Before I begin my work I've got a simple question:
Q: Are the qmail RPMs good, or should I use the "normal" way (compile
the qmail sources) to setup my qmail server ???
thanks a lot
regards
christian

Hi,
I have serious problems with autoturn from the serialmail package.
I have installed everything according to the file AUTOTURN in the from
serialmail-0.75.tar.gz
Our Server has the IP 62.104.127.50 and the client has a dialup connection
to the internet with the ip 62.104.105.49
Whenever the client involves the smtp-delivery of his autoturn-queue with
the TURN signal the transfer of the mail hangs at a special position of
the mail just right after the "mime header" of the secound attchmnt, see
below. The original mail with all headers is included as an atachment
as well.
This error is reproducable, so what we did was to put this mail in the
empty queue manually the the transfer hang again.
If you have any sugestion or need any addition logfile information please
inform me.
-Eike
From the "logfile" of the exchange Server on CLIENT side. I replaced every
real email adress with <anon>, the syntax originally was correct! The smtp
dialog seems to be correct, it just hangs at the end.

The last "|" probably comes from the exchange logfile, but after that the
client got a timeout.

That happens. Sometimes it's because nobody cares. It can also mean
nobody understands the question, nobody knows the answer, the
question is a FAQ that people are tired of answering, the question
was phrased in a way that offended or annoyed anyone who might have
responded otherwise, or the people who could respond are just too busy
to.
I don't know the reason(s) in this case, but one workaround is to hire
an expert. www.qmail.org lists some commercial support providers for
qmail and other djbware.

This doesn't appear to have anything to do with AutoTURN--other that
that's what causes the qmail system to try to send the message. It
looks like either an Exchange problem or a qmail/Exchange interaction
problem.
What happens if you send the message/attachments from a non-qmail
system? How about similar, but different, messages from the qmail
system? Try to pin down the cause of the problem. Trace the SMTP
traffic to see who's dropping the ball.

I've a message in queue & don't understand why it stays in queue after I
do `killall -ALRM qmail-send` (being root).

!block irony
Demand a refund! Lobby your congressman to approve the Software
Portability Act, which carries a mandatory life sentence for any
developer who publishes source code that doesn't compile and run on
all platforms! Round up a mob and lynch DJB for releasing daemontools
without a working taildir equivalent!
!endblock
!block rant
Seriously, Scott, yesterday you couldn't even understand the need for
taildir, and now you're complaining you can get it to work. What's
your angle? Jeff Hayward wrote a small utility for his own use and
shared it with others because he thought they might find it useful,
too. He never claimed it was perfect or widely portable, and if it
doesn't work for you, so what? Feel free to write, distribute, and
support your own "taildir" so people like you, who don't even need it,
can take pot shots at it.
!endblock
Sheesh.

. is a full directory name.
But, alas, I didn't *include* a /path or a path/to/dir or a path/to/dir/.
I don't think it's syntax.

I'm sorry that a few folks are unhappy with the little utility I
wrote for my own use. I've made some minor cleanups and have
attached a patch for that purpose.
I do not claim that this is portable software. There are no
system-dependent #ifdef's, no configure script, no build time tests
to see how your system works. I have no plans to figure out how to
obtain BSD compatibility from AIX, HP-UX, Solaris, SCO, or any other
systems. If it is useful to you I am happy, if not, perhaps you
should seek another solution. It really is a trivial little bit of
code.
I've addressed two questions outstanding, below.
Thanks,

No, not necessary. Taildir uses the current directory if none is
specified. This segfault is due to the fact that on some systems
scandir returns a null pointer as the 'names' array. I've added a
check for that, fixed some little portability things, and some
things to appease 'gcc -pedantic' in the patch file attached here.
The underlying problem with your segfault is that there are no
cyclog logs in the directory.

Uh, it ran fine. There were no cyclog logs in ".". That's what 'no

I assume you mean POP3-only accounts, in which case you should read

See, that's the problem with your kind of people -- you just don't

How could I have been so stupid. You'd think with all the "Star Trek:Voyager"
I've been watching lately that I would have thought of going into the future
to find my answers.
Now, if you'd have just grabbed me microseconds before I failed to find the
link and transported me into the past so I could have fixed your page myself,
we could have avoided all this trouble.
[ Sorry, but that had to have been one of the worst Voyager episodes I've seen
yet...the only one that was worse was the one the previous week with the
millennium gate. At least when DS9 wanted to save money, they did that neat
episode with the SF writer in the 50's. ]

I have installed qmail on ucspi-tcp with daemontools and rblsmtp. I noticed
now when i try to send a message from an outside mail server that i get this
message in my log file
<snip>
926689247.629143 tcpserver: warning: dropping connection, unable to run
rblsmt$
926689247.629636 tcpserver: end 13905 status 28416
926689247.629747 tcpserver: status: 0/40
<end of snip>
I tried looking at all the permissions and everything looks ok. I started
rblsmtpd like this
supervise /var/lock/qmail-smtpd tcpserver -v -x/etc/tcp.smtp/cdb -u71 -g1001
rblsmtpd qmail-smtpd 2>&1 | setuser qmaill accustamp | \ setuser qmaill
cyclog -s 5000000 -n5 /var/log/qmail/qmail-smtpd &
Can someone help. . ?
+ "Durham, Kenneth J" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

Does it really say that, or is the dollar sign an accident of
cut-and-paste? I'll assume the latter. If the former, I haven't a
clue what is going on.
| supervise /var/lock/qmail-smtpd tcpserver -v -x/etc/tcp.smtp/cdb -u71 -g1001
| rblsmtpd qmail-smtpd 2>&1 | setuser qmaill accustamp | \ setuser qmaill
| cyclog -s 5000000 -n5 /var/log/qmail/qmail-smtpd &
My first guess would be that rblsmtpd is not in a directory contained
in the value of $PATH that supervise was started with.

Hi,
I have a mail server with a couple of virtual IPs set up and I want to
modify qmail's pop server so that it can tell which one of the IP
interfaces the remote user is connecting to. As an example of what I
want to achieve in the end, if a remote user is connecting to port 110,
the pop server will be able to add "Connection from <remote ip> to
<local ip>."
Is there a somewhat easy way to do this? I'm not afraid to dig deep into
the source code. Currently running v1.00.
Please note that I am _not_ interested in solutions where the format of
the pop username is similar to "user@domain"! All which is required is
normal user and password.
Thanks a lot,
Fred

just wrap it. Since I haven't got many users, I wrap it with a small
shell script, which has available to it the various tcpserver environment
variables. "echo $TCPREMOTEIP >>logfile" will do the trick. If you've
got more users, write a tiny c program to wrap it.

I've got a filter that I need to apply to mail going into a mailbox (it forces
non-mime messages into mime messages, converting uuencoded attachments into
application-octet parts). However, now that I'm calling a prog
(|/usr/local/bin/uu2mime) in my .qmail instead of saying ./Maildir/, I need to deliver
the message into my Maildir. I would like to keep my filter ignorant of Maildir /
mailbox / etc, and do something like "|/usr/local/bin/uue2mime |
/usr/local/bin/qmail-maildirdeliver". I just wanted to see if someone else has done
this before before I re-invented the wheel.

re: var-qmail-1.03-1-gnu-linux-i386
from: ftp://moni.msci.memphis.edu/pub/qmail/var-qmail/
system: RH5.2, 2.0.36
The INSTALL doc. step 1. says to "mkdir /var/qmail" then
step 3. says to "make setup check" which results in a Error
message "mkdir: cannot make directory '/var/qmail': File exists"
and the make exits without finishing its thing.
If I try to proceed through the steps 1, 2, 3 then I've created
a file (step 2) named "alias" in /var/qmail as:
drwx------ alias nofiles 1024 alias
but since the make exited prematurely no other files or directories.
Now if I skip step 1. to avoid the step 3. error I've created:
drwxr-sr-x alias qmail 1024 alias
and the other necessary directories and files are present.
Q: Should I change the permissions on the alias directory as if I
made the directory with steps 1, 2, 3 or stop smoking crack?
Thanks,
DAN
