Hi,
I've already posted a message with this subject, but I'm still trying to
fix my problem.
I want to use the normal /etc/passwd file to authenticate users and more
detailed log in the
pop log.
I'm runing pop server with:
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v 0 pop3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup \
mail.drmail.com.br /bin/checkpassword /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir \
2>&1 | /usr/local/bin/tai64n | /usr/local/bin/tai64nlocal | \
/usr/local/bin/setuidgid qmaill /usr/local/bin/multilog /var/qmail/log/pop &
I've tried Paul Greg's checkpoppasswd, but it only works with
alternative password file (/var/qmail/users/poppasswd).
I don't want to log the password, I only want more then the IP address
and date for who is trying to log. I want ther username and if success or
not.
Could someone help me?
Best regards,
Ari
It's probably something you've already done, but have you checked the qmail logs?

What should the user, group, and permissions be for the
/var/qmail/users/assign file be? I'm trying to setup serialmail and it says
to add a line to this file. I don't have one so I need to make a new one
but the serialmail docs don't indicate what user, group, and permissions for
this file.
Thanks,
Jose

There should be nothing wrong with it being rw-r--r--, there's hardly any
confidential information in it.

Okay, but I'm unable to make an assign file. qmail-newu complains of
invalid format. I can't seem to find any mention of what the format should
be.
I have only one line in it and it is exactly what serialmail instructions
say to put into it.
Any Ideas?
Thanks,
Jose

Put a '.' on the last line, all by itself. Read man qmail-users for more info.

I finally broke down and set myself free from sendmail and installed
qmail yesterday. I've got a Pentium Pro 200 with RedHat 5.2 (2.0.36)
and a small number of users. I first tried installing the memphis rpm
version of qmail which installed just fine, but I couldn't get it to
start qmail correctly. Supervise would start qmail, echo "qmail
starting up..." and then a few seconds later, I would keep getting a
message that supervise didn't have permissions to run qmail-start. When
I looked at the process listings, there would be 2 instances of
supervise trying to run qmail-start (my guess is that there should only
be 1). The second instance would die and then start again with a new
proc id.
So I decided that the easy way didn't work, let's try the more complex
way. I uninstalled all the daemontools, functions, qmail-run, qmail,
etc. rpms and went in search of different directions. Searching through
the list archive brought me to the Mail Server Mini-Howto at
http://www.sfu.ca/~yzhang/linux/qmail/index.html
Seemed like good straight-forward directions, which I then followed. I
got qmail installed, compiled and installed the modified version of
imap-4.7 (modified to point to $HOMEDIR/mail/inbox) and, after a few
fits and starts, SMTP, mail delivery, and POP3 were working. So far so
good.
My issue now is that I found out that a few of the users on the box were
using procmail (which I of course broke). So in the process of
researching about procmail and qmail I have come to realize that my
installation is pretty far from "standard". I realize that all "good"
unix programs provide at least 3 ways to do any given task, and that the
chosen path is usually influenced by habit and/or prejudice.
I've got mail being delivered (I think) to a single file in each user
directory. I'm not using any of the normal rc scripts found in the
/var/qmail/boot directory. I'm using a modified version of UW's IMAPd.
I now wonder what I should do to my setup so that I can reasonably meet
my mail-server goals which are:
1) Allow POP3, and APOP access in an efficient way
2) Allow users to use Pine and Procmail together
3) Let users set up mailing-lists
4) In the future, add web-based mail support
5) In the future, IMAP support
It seems to me (looking at the docs) that issues such as delivery to
/var/spool/mail, $HOME, or ~/Maildir/ may be able to be set up on a
per-user basis. Is this true? And how would I migrate my setup to one
that supports Maildir?
Is Dot-Forward/Procmail support best provided by moving to Maildir
format?
Any opinions on the easiest/best POP3/IMAPd to integrate with qmail?
There just seems to be so many ways of doing things that it's easy to
get lost. Do I uninstall everything and start over, compiling by hand?
Do I attempt to modify my current setup? Tough calls.
Any help for a new friend is greatly appreciated.

You might want to take a look at Life With Qmail which can be found
here: http://Web.InfoAve.Net/~dsill/lwq.html It's got complete info
on just about every question you have.

Since you're using mbox format, qpopper's probably your best bet. There's
a patch on www.qmail.org for home dir mailboxes, and in ver3.0 (currently
in beta) it will be part of the distribution.
> 2) Allow users to use Pine and Procmail together
See the qmail FAQ, both of these items are covered in detail.

Take a look at TWIG. It's a complete Personal Information Manager in PHP
and was a snap to install. http://screwdriver.net/twig/

Doesn't matter. Both take place beforehand.

see above.

Start with Life With Qmail. You'll quickly find that it's not as tough
as you're thinking it might be.

Just and additional note: you should make abolutely sure that you use
the latest version of qpopper. Previous versions are vulnerable to
a buffer overflow and a exploit script has been posted to the bugtraq
list.

Change that to "use the absolute latest version of NON BETA code
available. ie. 2.53 (i believe)"
An exploit just came out for the beta tree, dont know if they have a patch
available to fix it yet tho'...

Here's a fix:
Since the error message, using the IBM C compiler, complained
about the 'dns.c' file my co-worker simply commented out the
line:
extern int h_errno;
to be:
/* extern int h_errno; */
Thereafter, compilation w/IBM C compiler completed without errors
and qmail is running!

As far as I know, messages live for up to 10 week on a default
configuration.
You can attempt to deliver all messages on the queue by sending
"kill -ALRM" to qmail-send.

I have gone through the list archive and the only information I can find
on this subject was listmembers asking about if there was any anti-virus
solution out there.
Is there any anti-virus thing out there that can scan for macro viruses
in Qmail?
Thanks so much for your time,

There is a package called "Amavis", but no one has been able to supply any
information on how to get it to work. I couldn't find the patches in the
archives, but I'd really love to know how I can get Amavis to work with
qmail.
Good luck, Jennifer.

Hi Jennifer,
We use a commercial product called VFind, provided by a company found
on the web here: http://www.cyber.com/
With a bit of a shell wrapper, you can make it into a generic scanning
tool which works like this....
STDIN --> vfind --> STDOUT
We call it from a .qmail-file, once for each incoming message, and let
qmail assess our return code. Works quite well, and we've been happy
with the support from them.
And, yes, it does detect many of the different X97M and W97M virus
variants.

Martin A. Brown --- SecurePipe Communications --- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
We use vfind as well, and are very happy with the product and the support
we get. My company runs a commercial service protecting email from viruses,
and since it's based on qmail I thought it appropriate to mention it
here. If you want to 'roll your own' anti virus solution, here are some of
the
points we have found (based on 18 months worth of hard earned experience)
you should
consider.
1) Email is now the primary point of entry of viruses into most companies.
Over the last
18 months we have found that on average 1 in every 1500 emails contains a
virus. Emails
from free mail services, such as hotmail/yahoo etc, contain a higher
proportion of viruses.
2) If you only use one virus scanner, you will miss around 3% of viruses
over the course
of a year. This is because all the AV vendors have different schedules for
issuing new signatures,
and because they all find new viruses at slightly different times. The more
virus scanners you add,
the better your detection rate, but also the higher your costs are, and the
longer it takes
to scan mail. (We have currently settled on 3 scanners)
3) You have to be able to cope with all the obscure formats mail can arrive
in (recursive mime,
ZIP, binhex, microsoft propriatory etc etc) or you will miss viruses.
4) Updating your scanners with new signatures is very important. The new
breed of email viruses
spread so quickly that speed really is of the essence. For instance, the UK
was hit badly on 29th March
by the Melissa virus. However, the signatures to detect this virus were
available
at least 3 days before this date. To be truly effective, consider updating
at least hourly, if not
more often.
5) New viruses are often detected and publicised for some time before the
signatures are available.
Consider how you will deal with these threats before standard signatures are
published.
6) All AV scanners generate some false alarms, so you will need to consider
how to handle these
7) All AV scanners crash occasionally, (or worse, get into an infinite loop
and never return)
so you will need to consider how to handle this
8) You should consider training your help-desk to be virus-literate, since
they will get a large
number of queries about viruses.
9) Scanning will slow down mail delivery. To maintain the same level of
service as before, we estimate
you will need up to 10 times the current hardware (of course, if your
current hardware is not running
at full capacity, you won't need as much.
10) Linux virus scanners we have tried, and found to be good are (no
particular order):
NAI Antivirus www.nai.com
Datafellows F-Secure www.datafellows.com
Cybersoft vfind www.cyber.com
Sophos Antivirus www.sophos.com
If anyone is interested in a detailed comparison of these products, please
contact me off the list.
If anyone knows of any other linux AV products you think we should consider,
please let me know.
11) To be truly effective, you may need to dedicate personell full-time to
an anti-virus role. This
will obviously depend heavily on the size of your company.
Well, thats all I can think of off the top of my head. Hope it gives you all
some food for thought!

Hello,
I couldn't find any specific mailing list for the ucspi-tcp package, and because
I have found some questions about tcpserver asked to this list, I would like to
know if this is the place to ask also about problems related to other programms
from the same package?

It was down for a while, yes. And at the same time, I was giving the

wait to crash until I was very, very far away.

It was me. I own up. I also emailed Jennifer. (gosh)
I posted to Dustin directly, because I thought from his mail that he was
looking for
a solution my company could provide. I also posted to the list a different
email outlining
all the things you should seriously consider if you want to do this kind of
thing yourself.
In this way, I hope I am benefitting the community, while also furthering my
own ends. Hopefully
a win-win scenario.
Meanwhile, people have done this before on the list, so I don't believe this
was a bad thing to do.
Perhaps I was wrong. Either way, I expect a big postbag tomorrow!

Alex

Probably not against "the rules", but it shows extremely poor taste, and,
much like you, I would actually refrain from doing business with any
inconsiderate clod who'd try to pull that on me.

Sam
Well, since he posted that to the list, I feel it would be fair for me to
copy my response, detailing why it truly costs me US$0.00 to run my own
virus checking system. I've made a few minor edits, but they don't affect
the character and spirit of my original reply to Alex.
One thing to keep in mind. While yes, my time is valuable to me and my
clients, I would not be so self-centered as to say *ALL* of my free time is
valuable. The time I spend screwing around with my Linux machine which
supports all of three people (all of whom are good friends and aren't really
dependent on this server) is trivial, I wouldn't charge them for it, I'm not
that full of myself.
---[ begin quoted message ]---
I will analyze what you say is my cost for you, just so you know where I'm
coming from, Alex.
1) My time. Yes, my time is valuable, but administering this box for me and
my three employees (who already run virus scanning on their desktops anyway)
is trivial. I do it in my spare time. While normally I charge in excess of
US$100/hour for my time, I truly enjoy mucking around this box. It's not
serious for me now, I don't have hundreds of people to support. It's a
convenience issue, really, that's all.
2) I've already purchased the antivirus software. Other than the
subsciption to the updates (which, I would fathom, is still less expensive
than using your service), zero cost to me.
3) I need no extra hardware, I have a mail server that's fully capable of
running antivirus software. In fact, it does, and I can use MAV to manually
scan attachment directories -- I was hoping to automate that process. If I
can accomplish that, again -- zero cost to me.
4) I currently have a cron job that downloads hourly virus updates from
AVERT and installs them. Zero time spent updating the software.
And, yes, if a virus slips through, there is a cost to be paid in recovering
any lost data from an infection. But nobody is 100% virus-free, not one
company can guarantee 100% effectiveness, so that is a calculated risk that
I have chosen to take. On systems that are backed up daily (and, some
directories, automatically syncronized to other disparate filesystems on
change), I'm not concerned with actual data loss -- no virus is going to
destroy all copies of my data no matter the format or location, that would
require keys to my safe deposit box and my hot site.
While I appreciate that you are running a business, please try to keep this
in mind: I run qmail and linux and amavis because they are free and
supported by the community. There isn't one programmer busting out code
under a heavy deadline, under threat of loss of pay, and because of that
singular dedication to "getting it right", open source software is the way
for me to go.
Your solution may be a God-send for many of your customers, I have no doubt
of that. But I did not join this list to be solicited, I joined this list
to seek the assistance of other generous qmail users and programmers, hoping
to learn something in the process.
Yes, your mail annoyed me, and I'm glad it was only to me and not the list.
In my list post, I made sure I didn't disclose your identity: I'm not that
type of person. But please, in the future, refrain from soliciting this
particular qmail-lister.
If you've come up with a way to use Amavis, I'd love to hear from you. If
you're telling me I have to spend my hard-earned cash when I *KNOW* I do
not, please don't bother typing a message to me. That's just the way it is
with me. :)
Thanks again for your concern -- whether it's sincere or motiviated by
capitalism, I do not care -- I truly appreciate that you are looking out for
the needs of other people. But, after all, I don't /need/ your service.
Best of luck to you and your firm in all your endeavors,
Dustin

So Sam, let me get this straight. If you posted a problem onto the list,
and someone proposed a solution that not only costs you less in real terms,
but is also technically better, you would ignore it. In that case, why post
the problem in the first place?

I don't see anything wrong with offering to fix someone's problem for a
reasonable fee, especially if it is something that is beyond the scope of the
normal questions/problems that the list is here to answer.
IMHO, it's not the list's job to do peoples' work for them. We're here to
provide technical information and support for people who are having
legitimate problems (and hopefully have done their homework before asking).

I apologise if this is slightly off topic but I am growing concerned about the log
files that sem
to
be infesting my system in particular the qmail and samba ones. I looked through the
daemon
tools package and found something called cyclog which I intend to use to handle my
logging
from now on. My question is this. How do I run qmail in such a way that its logging is
handled
by the cyclog program and what daemons etc generate the log messages. Also as I use
tcpserver to wrap around qmail smtp but qmail-send is run from a shell script how do I
log
these seperately (do i need to?) and can I log output from tcpserver detailing
connections
before any mail stuff is logged? Hope someone can make some sensee of this and help me
out here.
thanks

You could always write a simple cronjob that would suspend qmail-send
until an hour that you deem proper for sending such large emails and
then have another cronjob that reactivates it at the specified time.
This might involve control/concurrencyremote by setting the value to 0
and then HUP'ing qmail-send. I'm not qmail expert by any means but
this might work.

qmail-send needs a real restart to reread concurrency info. There is a patch
that allows you to start/stop delivery without restarting qmail, it's somewhere
on www.qmail.org.

Would an ALRM be enough or does it require a full restart?

Reading helps.
I typed 'needs a real restart' but 'There is a patch that allows...'

Yes, I did read, however, I would rather avoid another patch if

Define 'real restart' in this context please... :)

kill -TERM the qmail-send process
wait for it to die off normally
start qmail

I'm not sure what's going on, but we've been getting hit with repetitive
emails for almost a week now. I have disabled the account on our side
that is the recipient, but now I've been getting bounce messages. I've
tried putting the sender in badmailfrom, but apparently this does not work
or I'm doing it wrong.
I have included an attached bounce message as well as my badmailfrom file.
All attempts to contact the postmaster @ the other site have failed. They
are apparently using GroupWise.

The best, quick way to stop the bounces is to make an alias in your
/var/qmail/alias directory with the filename:
.qmail-cferguson
with just a hash mark (#) in the file. This will cause all mail for this
once-existant mailbox to fall quietly into /dev/null.

Try the anti-spam patch from the "Yet More Qmail Addons" section on the
qmail homepage,
<ftp://ftp.fmp.com/pub/linux/qmail>. You can then add an address into a
"new" file
called badrcptto, and qmail-smtpd will reject the mail.

Okay, I've applied the patch to Amavis indicated on one of those posts, and
replaced my qmail-local and qmail-remote binaries with symlinks to the
scanmails binary, as the post dictated.
Still, however -- the EICAR.COM virus goes right through. I'm attaching the
EICAR.COM virus to this post (it's 69 bytes) to see if it sets any other
alarms off. That's a good way to tell who's using it. :)
For those not familiar with EICAR, it's a TEST for virusscanners. It
doesn't actually DO anything, it isn't really a VIRUS, and it WON'T hurt
you.
Although, it does crash Windows Millennium quite handily.

Strange, it didn't set the alarm off here but when I compared the file you
attached versus the eicar file I used for testing, I noticed that you seem
to have an extra space but not return carriage.

Okay, I installed the amavis patch, and changed it to log to its own
logfile. I notice that uvscan exits with an exitcode of 17 when I attach
the EICAR.ZIP file, but amavis doesn't seem to think that's a bad thing,
and passes the message along anyway.
I also get the following delivery line in my qmail log file:
delivery 9: success:
File:_changing_"EICAR.COM"_to_"y13255.0.COM"(12)/CentralDir:_changing_"EICAR.COM"_to_"y13255.0.COM"/Reduced_Length:_6//usr/bin/head:_./EICAR.ZIP:_No_such_file_or_directory//usr/bin/head:_./EICAR.ZIP:_No_such_file_or_directory/did_1+0+1/
I'm going to sift through the scanmails script to see what it's doing. It
appears to be running 'head' on a file that had since been renamed -- it
does this, and runs grep against the head output, to determine what type
of attachment the file in question is (zip, tar, arj, etc)
Still hacking away,
Dustin
Okay, I found a few things that you need to do to get this working.
I have attached a unified diff of my current scanmails script -- your
mileage may vary.
Here's what you would do to reproduce what I have, from beginning to end.
install 4.04 of mcafee virusscan for linux
./configure --enable-qmail --enable-x-headers=no
Once that's done, BEFORE running make, apply the attached patch to
src/scanmails/scanmails
Good, now make. :)
make a directory called "/tmp/virusmails"
make a directory called "/var/log/scanmails"
touch "/var/log/scanmails/logfile"
mv /var/qmail/bin/qmail-local /var/qmail/bin/qmail-local-real
mv /var/qmail/bin/qmail-remote /var/qmail/bin/qmail-remote-real
ln /var/qmail/bin/qmail-local /usr/sbin/scanmails
ln /var/qmail/bin/qmail-remote /usr/sbin/scanmails
That did it for me.

hi all,
i have an autoresponder line in a customers .qmail file as follows:
| /var/qmail/bin/autorespond AutoReplyBot [EMAIL PROTECTED]
/www/db/user/respond.txt
this works fine. (I don't know why, the syntax is totally different to what
the documentation for autoresponder says..) when you email the customer, you
get the text in /www/db/user/respond.txt back.
However, the user doesn't receive the mail that you send! I then tried to
put:
&[EMAIL PROTECTED]
in the next line of the .qmail file but i get the autoresponder back, but i
also get a mail with the following:
Hi. This is the qmail-send program at cia.com.au.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
This message is looping: it already has my Delivered-To line. (#5.4.6)
Any ideas why?

I'm having problems with qmail-smtpd dying on my Solaris box. It is running
under tcpserver/supervise but this doesn't seem to prevent it from dying and
not restarting.
For example:
bbsol01:/root $ telnet localhost 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
bbsol01:/root $ svstat /var/lock/qmail-smtpd
944896613 up pid 24864
bbsol01:/root $ svc -d /var/lock/qmail-smtpd
svc: warning: unable to control /var/lock/qmail-smtpd: device not configured
bbsol01:/root $ ps -ef|grep qmail-smtpd
bbsol01:/root $ /etc/init.d/qmail-smtpd.init start
DIR = /var/lock/qmail-smtpd
-n Starting qmail-smtpd...
done
bbsol01:/root $ ps -ef|grep qmail-smtpd
qmaill 26336 1 0 03:43:01 pts/1 0:00 cyclog -s 1000000
/var/log/qmail-smtpd

/var/lock/qmail-smtpd tcpserver -v -c40 -x /etc/tcprules.d/qmail-smtp
qmaild 26338 26337 0 03:43:01 pts/1 0:00 tcpserver -v -c40 -x
/etc/tcprules.d/qmail-smtpd.cdb -u102 -g100 0 smtp qmail-s
bbsol01:/root $ telnet localhost 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
exit
220 bbsol01.dedicated-services.com ESMTP
221 bbsol01.dedicated-services.com
Connection closed by foreign host.
As you can see, svc thinks that qmail-smtpd is up when it isn't. There
isn't anything in the logs that gives any indication of what may be
happening, and I can't see any pattern to the problem. I suspect it may be
a server load problem as the box gets pretty heavily loaded by an apache
installation hosting some sort of chat service which runs as a java servlet.
The contents of /etc/init.d/qmail-smtpd.init are at the end of this mail.
For the record, it's qmail-1.03, ucspi-tcp-0.84, daemontools-0.53,
vpopmail-3.4.10.
Has any one got any idea what might be causing this, or how I can go about
finding out?
Thanks for any suggestions.

Hello,
And thanks Martin for answering to my question.
My first problem is about the examples given for the use of tcpclient. Lets
take who@ (the others are more or less similar):
#!/bin/sh
# WARNING: This file was auto-generated. Do not edit!
/usr/local/bin/tcpclient -RHl0 -- "${1-0}" 11 \
sh -c 'exec /usr/local/bin/delcr <&6' | cat -v
After reading the man page for tcpclient, I think attentively, I couldn't
figure out at all what are the `--' standing for. So I would be very happy if
someone could explain me the `--'.
Please note that I'm a beginner in programming and also that I introduced the
`\' just in this mail to break the long line in the who@ script (although this
should be harmless also in the script)
Best regards,
Serban
