You're missing "ar" tool. On my RedHat linux, it's inside a binutils 
RPM. On your system/distribution, you have to find it yourself.

on Solaris, this is standard included, just make sure the directory
/usr/ccs/bin is included in your path.

Make sure /usr/ccs/bin is last if you add it to your path as there are
other versions of some programs there that you don't want.  I just add a
symlink to usefull things in /usr/ccs/bin to /usr/local/bin.  Then I get
what I want and not the rest.

Each message has its own retry schedule.  qmail-send keeps a listing
of the queue in memory (which is why you can't change the queue out
from under qmail-send) and sorts them by retry time.  So, retrying
email is just a matter of sleeping for the amount of time between now
and the retry time of the message at the head of the queue.

Hi,

I'm running qmail 1.03 on RH6 with IMAP support.

I'm frequently experiencing long connection wait times to Inbox, which
during this time sends an imapd process to 100% and uses up truck loads
of memory. This doesn't happen all the time though.

pop3 connections seem fine.

Anyone got some clever ideas?

Toby.

Yes.  The next time it happens, feed the runaway process to strace, and see
what it's trying to do.

I will take the old rpms off my site as soon as I completely tested
qmail-run.  (Well, I will move them to an "obsolete" directory for a while)
I understand that the situation is a bit confusing at the ftp site, but that
will disappear soon.  In the meantime, I put a note in the READMEs.

A simple pointer: people who look for the "memphis" rpm, should not look into
the var-qmail dir.  People who look for a binary distribution of qmail,
should look into var-qmail.

The only added bonus is that now one does not have to compile qmail.
The old rpm does not meet the criteria for binary redistribution.

As for patches: binary redistribution does not allow any patches used to
build the package.

I did not understand your comment about applying patches at srpm build time.
Perhaps you want to elaborate.

I am including (but am not applying by default) patches in the distribution
only if I had a chance to test them (use them).  So far I used only the rbl
and the verh patches.  Sam's patch sounds like a very useful patch, though,
but I have not had time to try them out.

Sam  does have his own rpm that uses the patch.  Also, Bruce Guenter 
has an rpm that employs selected patches.

It is rather trivial to add patches to var-qmail-create.  Those who cannot,
should not.  

One problem I see with my old rpm is that a few people installed it, and then
they started reading the docs included with qmail, and thought they have to
create initscripts and such.  Having two rpms I believe makes it clearer
what people will get (since apparently I cannot always count on them reading
the READMEs I put up).

Hello,
 I apologize for writing this message to the list, but I have no other 
choice.  Could someone please remove from this mailing list?  I followed 
what I thought was the correct procedure for removing myself, but the list 
doesn't think I'm subscribed.  I first sent a message to qmail-help and 
received the usual response.  I then sent an email to unsubscribe-qmail and 
it returned the message below:

Hi! This is the ezmlm program. I'm managing the
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list.

To confirm that you would like
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
removed from this mailing list, please send an empty reply to this address:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

I then replied to this message and got the message below in response:

Hi! This is the ezmlm program. I'm managing the
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list.

Acknowledgment: The address
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
is not on this mailing list.

Can anyone please tell me what I'm doing wrong here?  Once again, I 
apologize that I'm sending this to this, but I don't know what else to do.

Thank you

Right.  But obviously, since you're getting list mail, you're
subscribed to the list under an address other than [EMAIL PROTECTED]
The thing to do is look in the headers of the email, and find
something that looks like
[EMAIL PROTECTED], only of course the
"nelson=crynwr.com" part and the number will be different.  *That* is
the address you're subscribed to the list under.  If I were going to
unsubscribe from the list, I would send mail to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]  You would do
something similar, eh?

Anyone Bored and want to install Qmail & Maildir etc on my new Sun (OS7) box

Best Regards

Marc P Summers





I thought I finally acheived victory with my problems with pop3 last night,
because I was finally able to read all the backed up email (around 400+).
But this morning I noticed I didn't have any new emails, and when sending
tests from other domains, they neither bounced, nor showed up in my mailbox
(I am using Maildir). Even when I send an email (still from my browser not
on trhe machine), using the account I'm using for qmail, the message gets
sent, never bounces, but also never arrives?!?!?!?! I notice that I'm STILL
not getting any logs in the /var/log/qmail/ log dirs. Getting that working
I'm sure would help greatly. I'm (I thought) using splogger, and my
/etc/syslog.conf shows that as  logging to /var/log/maillog, but that too is
empty.  I'm quite confused at this point, any help would (again) be
appreciated)
Below is my rc file also I put pop-3 in inetd since this is a very lightly
used system (me my wife and just a few "clients").
/var/qmail/rc:
# Using splogger to send the log through syslog.
# Using procmail to deliver messages to /var/spool/mail/$USER by default.

#exec env - PATH="/progs/qmail/bin:$PATH" /progs/qmail/bin/qmail-start '|
preline procmail' splogger qmail
#exec env - PATH="var/qmail/bin:/usr/local/bin:$PATH" qmail-start ./Maildir/
'| preline /usr/local/bin/maildrop' splogger qmail
exec env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:$PATH" qmail-start " cat
/var/qmail/control/defaultdelivery " accustamp

#./Maildir/
tcpserver -v -R 0 pop3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup mail.merp.com
/bin/checkpassword /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d maildir 2>&1 |
/var/qmail/bin/splogger pop3d &
#tcpserver 0 110 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup mail.merp.com /bin/checkpassword
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir &
#tcpserver 0 110 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup mail.merp.com
/home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir &
As you can see I've been messing with it quite a bit....
My /var/qmail/alias/.qmail* files all have a single line:
hawke
which is the username/account I want ALL email to go to (for now, I'll worry
about the other users when I get all this working properly for me).
Please let me know what else I should be looking at, thanks.
-Hawke

Is that one line or two? Looks like two, but that could be line wrap.

>exec env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:$PATH" qmail-start " cat
>/var/qmail/control/defaultdelivery " accustamp

I think you want the cat command emclosed in back quotes, e.g.:

    "`cat /var/qmail/control/defaultdelivery`"

How are running /var/qmail/rc at startup? Are you piping its output to 
splogger? What's in /var/qmail/control/defaultdelivery?

>tcpserver -v -R 0 pop3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup mail.merp.com
>/bin/checkpassword /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d maildir 2>&1 |
>/var/qmail/bin/splogger pop3d &

That looks OK, and is definitely logging via splogger.

More line wrapping?

Do you have a ~hawke/.qmail?

There's a problem with logic in there. A disclaimer is an 'official' 
notification of sorts to the consumer that under no circumstances can the 
author be held responsible if there are problems with the product - because 
you, the consumer, have been duly warned that there may be problems. A 
disclaimer is not a statement that there _are_ problems, only notification 
that all eventualities cannot be anticipated - the future can't be 
predicted. You'll find such disclaimers on virtually all operating systems 
and software out there - simply because it is *impossible* to guarantee 
that software will never break under any circumstances, including 
circumstances as yet undiscovered.  "Standing behind" a disclaimer is an 
oxymoron of sorts - "I guarantee that I will not guarantee this software".

Hello. I am trying to compile qmail 1.03 on Solaris 7 for SPARC using gcc. When
I run the command "make setup check," the process seems to work fine until it
gets to the following point.

makelib
chmod 755 makelib
./compile case_diffb.c
./compile case_diffs.c
./compile case_lowerb.c
./compile case_lowers.c
./compile case_starts.c
./makelib case.a case_diffb.o case_diffs.o case_lowerb.o \
case_lowers.o case_starts.o
./makelib: ar: not found
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `case.a'

Does anyone know how I can fix this problem? Thanks in advance for your help.

Jim

Put /usr/ccs/bin in your path, which is where Solaris' ar is.
Alternately, put the location of another ar binary in your PATH.  Given
that the question has been asked, you'll probably want to do the former.

Either of:

    man ar
    find / -name ar -print

will locate "ar", which is probably in /usr/ccs/bin. Add that
directory to your path and re-run the make.

SuSE uses qmail + ezmlm-idx for all our mailing lists. We have a
PIII/500 breezing through delivering close to 1 million message a day.

I don't know if people are aware of thi (as I dont know that I've heard it
before), but it appears InterNIC users qmail for some or all of their
mail, based on email headers which I've viewed. Can anyone else confirm
this? If so, this is a pretty significant qmail achievement, considering
the sheer volume internic sends in a given day...

Dear All,
        
I use Redhat 5.2 with qmail as the MTA. I am using the AUTOTURN feature
from serialmail-0.75 for on of my clinet who uses Win NT Exchange Server.
For About a week, everything worked fine, but now it is not working.

Maillog shows that the mails are the mails are handled by autoturn and
autoturn delivers it to the specied directory:

/var/qmail/autoturn/ip.add.res./new/

When the client sends mail, it is successful. But instead of our server
initiating an smtp connection back to the client and sending mail, it does
nothing. Why is this happening ??

Another question is are there any special logs ?? I mean where are the logs ??

Any suggestions or suggestions to RTFM will be appretiated, if that is in
the Manual.

>just to throw in my 2 cents-


We find we need about 15 PCs per 10,000,000 emails shipped daily. This is based on 
P400s running RH Linux 6, with 128M memory and SCSI drives. However, we do virus scan 
mail which kind of clouds the throughput issue somewhat.

Hi,

I have a few questions about quotas.

- I use qmail for POP account, so the mail of each user is in
/home/user/Mailbox. I would like to add a quota of like 10 Mb. How can I do
that. Is it easy ?

- If the mail received is like 15 Mb, it will be denied. But will it be
denied before being sent to my SMTP server or after ?

Thank you !




As per the "standard" qmail installation for uucp, I have a
/var/qmail/alias/.qmail-uucp-default of:

    '|preline -d /usr/bin/uux - -gC -a"${SENDER:-MAILER-DAEMON}" uucphost!rmail 
"($DEFAULT@$HOST)"'

when there is outgoing email to uucphost, what program executes the
uux command, and what is its UID and GID when it does it?

        Thanks,

        John

BTW, it works fine, (but I'll fix that, 8^).) The reason for the
question is to wrap an ssh tunnel around uux. The tunnel works fine,
too-just not together.

A quick question:

Is it possible to convert incoming email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] in qmail?

If yes, how?

Or... is there any document that discuss this in detail?

Thanks,
Sei Heng
