It works only with .cdb files. You need to build /etc/aliases.cdb with the
newaliases program that comes with the fastforward package.

Hi all,
I want to install the max rcpt to patch but the link in
http://www.qmail.org
(ftp://ftp.surfnetcity.com.au/pub/unix/qmail/qmail-1.01-maxrcpt.patch)

You have to use [EMAIL PROTECTED] (or userid%domain.com) as the POP user, unless you
set up domain.com as your default domain, like this (from vpopmail's FAQ, question #0):
rm ~vpopmail/users
ln -s ~vpopmail/domains/domain.com ~vpopmail/users
As I recall, you also have to manually move domain.com from qmail's "locals" file to
"virtualdomains".

There are three cases:
1) You can define one domain to be your "default" domain. Users
of that domain only need to put in "user" instead of "user%domain"
./configure --enable-default-domain=test.com
2) You can use IP based domains. Every domain that has a unique IP
can use "user". vpopmail can determine the domain based on the
IP on the server that the user connects to.
./configure --enable-ip-alias-domains=y
3) use "user%domain".
You can use a mixture of all three cases above at the same time.
The POP protocol was not designed to support virtual domains. So there
is no way to uniquely determine which "user" is associated with
which "domain". Hence the use of "%domain" to make the association.
Feedback from system admins about the "%domain" is favorable. Most users
just want to know what to type into thier pop user name field. They
really
don't understand what it means or why it works. They just want to know
what letters to type into thier setup screen. After they set it up,
they move on.
Ken Jones
http://www.inter7.com/vpopmail/
The only solution to this is if you have an ip address for each domain. then
users can have their login be 'user' instead of their email address.
You can also have one local domain with vpopmail where users can login with
'user'.
The problem arises because POP wasn't meant to handle virtual domains.
vpopmail gets around this by using the user's email address as their login.
(or as you said, in some circumstances user%domain)
The only alternative to this setup that I have seen is Paul Gregg's single
UID howto. http://www.tibus.net/pgregg/projects/qmail/single-uid-howto.html
However, it gets more complicated, in my opinion, in the long run than
vpopmail's setup, and doesn't have anything like qmailadmin or sqwebmail.
(that i know of).
It doesn't seem like the users would be too confused, in a switchover, if
you gave them good instructions on changing their email settings. tell the
user 'hey, instead of your username, put your email address as your login
name'. Seems straightforward enough. Of course, if you are in a business
situation and you host domains for a living, you should consider (at least)
buying an ip address for each domain. (my opinion).
Hope this helps,
Eric

I didn't compile my qmail with this option.
I tried to link a domain as the default domain, and everything goes fine.
But is this case, there can only be ONE default domain.

Can I turn on this option after I installed my qmail package??
Because I install my qmail from RPM files, without compiling them by myself.
Is there more document about this function??

I think so, too.
I am just wondering is there any solution for a ferfect answer?
Both more convenient for administrator and users.
Right now we are building a Internet community website, and we need a
webmail system for our site. So first I have to consider can our webmail
works fine with the "user%domain" mail format.
I had tried the sqwebmail package, and everything seems fine.
The only problem is that we are using Chinese characters,
and there wiil be some coding error on it.

Something's not right in the queue. Try running qmail-qsanity from
www.qmail.org.

I used qmail-qsanity and there were some problems with the gids and the
uids. I tried to clean this up. But now I get the following messages:
message is neither local nor remote: 376
message is neither local nor remote: 358
message is neither local nor remote: 359
message is neither local nor remote: 369
message is neither local nor remote: 379
message is neither local nor remote: 600
when I try to send a message to the server I get:
451 qq trouble vreating files in queue (#4.3.0)'.
qstat says:
messages in queue: 25
messages in queue but not yet preprocessed: 0
I think I made a fault while changing the gids and the uids. Is there a way
to clean the queue and a list of directories with their gids and uids?

I have the same problem and have been trying to educate my relatives.
In the mean time I am using the following rules for tcpserver:
# Blue Mountain greeting card goes through bmarts
209.247.132.86-138:deny
209.247.133.7-8:deny
This appears to have blocked at least one message from a relative
successfully. I don't know who else uses bmarts, so this may block
other people than Blue Mountain.

What education do people sending you cards need? Apparently I need it,
too.

bmarts is, presumably, Blue Mountain Arts.
Do you block other card services, or is Blue Mountain the only one
that's evil?
Do you reject snail mail containing greeting cards?
Do you block calls from friends and relatives on holidays and
birthdays?
I just don't get it...

That I don't read email under windows. I don't want to waste bandwidth
and diskspace on images, especially animated ones. I am currently not even
using X on the machine that I use for email, so viewing images is a bit of
a problem.
I don't want the card companies collecting and reselling my address. While
it isn't secret, the kind of people a greeting card company is likely to
sell it to, aren't the kind of people I want using it.

They are the only one I seem to have gotten sent cards by. If there was an
RBL style list of greeting card servers, I would use it.

Snail mail cards don't have a lot of extra negative impact on my end when they
have pictures added to them as well as text.

Blue Mountain sends a URL, not a copy of the images. If you don't read
the card, you won't "waste" your bandwidth.

Do you know for a fact that Blue Mountain sells addresses? Set up a
spam trap address and send it a card. Their privacy policy states:
The names and email addresses you give us when you simply send a
card are NOT sold, compiled into any type of mailing list, or
otherwise used for any type of email solicitation.
-Dave
If memory serves me right, what Blue Mountain sends you for a "card" is a
link to their site (please correct me if I am wrong).
If I am correct, then you just don't go to the site to collect your card.
Also, FYI:
http://www.bluemountain.com/home/privacy.html
"We are committed to making your Blue Mountain experience enjoyable
and safe. When you send one of our electronic greetings, the
information you provide to us is used only to customize your greeting
with your name and your recipient's name, and to deliver email
notifications to you and your recipient. The names and email addresses
you give us when you simply send a card are NOT sold, compiled into
any type of mailing list, or otherwise used for any type of email
solicitation. "
I get more SPAM from Real Audio then I get from anyone else ( I use a new
address for anyplace that I have to give an address and so far NONE of them
have ever sold my address ).

BMarts is fairly evil. They insert whatever sender address the sender
specifies in the SMTP envelope of the mail. They do nothing to verify
that it is a valid address. This means that bounces (and they create lots
of those) come to the local postmaster. (this is all past experience)
They also don't read/respond to complaints sent to postmaster. It is too
bad, they could easily fix the bounce problem.

Say you want to accept mail locally for [EMAIL PROTECTED],
[EMAIL PROTECTED], and [EMAIL PROTECTED], but [EMAIL PROTECTED],
[EMAIL PROTECTED], etc. should be routed to exchange.example.com.
Add the following to control/rcphosts:
example.com
Add the following to control/virtualdomains:
example.com:alias-example
Create ~alias/.qmail-example-joe:
&joe
(Likewise for bill and sue.)
Create ~alias/.qmail-example-default:
|forward "$[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Finally, restart qmail to have the changes take effect.
Another way to do this is using the fastforward package.

Use the well-documented selective relaying techniques to accept mail
from the local machines.
Why do you want to use serialmail to send to your ISP? Why not let
qmail handle that?

You don't. You can use daemontools for process control, or "kill" to
stop and run to start.
See "Life with qmail" for details about configuring qmail with
ucspi-tcp and daemontools.

I'm having trouble getting this patch to work with $M outlook express or the

me for a user name and password over and over again - same thing with
Netscape.

The problem is that both Outlook Express and Netscape does not use the
CRAM-MD5 authentication.
In this case they are using your normal, checkpassword (the first one, you
are providing to the qmail-smtpd) and if it works with qmail-pop3d then it
should also work here. Double check it...

When qmail starts it delivers all the mail in the
queue. However it then stops delivering queued mail.
I've goen through the smtp process manually and it
gives me an OK and it gets queued so i know its
accepting it. It was working before. Does anyone know
what i might have inadvertantly broken?

My qmail is accepting spam if a '%' is put in 'rcpt to' field,
like that:
>>> MAIL FROM:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
<<< 250 ok
>>> RCPT TO:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
<<< 250 ok
Anybody know a way to solve this problem?

Tell the people doing the testing to fix their test.
There is nothing wrong with accepting that email as long as you don't
blindly forward it on to another site.
Qmail won't do this without you taking some steps to do this. Some sendmail
versions do relay such mail by default.

<soapbox>
Just another example of the collateral damage from common "anti-spam"
mechanisms. The test is in error, but the burden is upon you to prove
that you deserve to send email.
There is a fine line between such stupidity and genuine fascism. ORBS
blocks mail from servers which block ORBS's scanners. In a slightly
different arena, CyberPatrol blocks websites which criticize them or
censorware in general.
I'll save you from the bad stuff! (And anything I don't like...hehe.)

When a user's mail has been destroyed, do you explain to him that he
was in an extremely esoteric and rare situation? Reliability means
never having to say you're sorry.

What is the problem?
If you don't have enabled percenthack[1], the mail will be bounced.
It will probably be doublebounced.
The mail is accepted but not delivered.

Gotta love the multiple list thing, I saw it the first time and threw it
away, now I'm answering....must be the persistence.
This would be helpful if you put in your correct domain names, I am having a
terrible time following this.
>From what it looks like you have a domain called abc.net
You have a user marietta and a user ishkabob and they can send to each other
but not to abc.com?
do you also administer abc.com?
are they on the same box?
can you PLEASE include correct domains? this seems to be a dns issue or a
misconfiguration from what I gather from the logs.
And include the relevant snips from your logs UNEDITED.

Well, the problem is that the person wanted an attachment
coming from stdin and mutt takes only an attachment from a
file...
So, the answer isn't as obvious as one would like (unless mutt
takes the usual "-" -- I'd have to check the manuals to see if
that is possible, but I think that it is not -- or the person
first cat's stdin to a file and then send that file).

Hi,
I added domain.com:spades into /control/rcpthosts , so all mail will go to
spades.
and in ~spades/.qmail-webmaster , i have /home/spades/Maildir/
same for all and .qmail-default.
However i can't seem to mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
It goes to postmaster.
Any idea?

That line should go in control/virtualdomains. Otherwise, it will treat your
domain as a local domain. DON'T put it in control/locals. Just in
control/virtualdomains.
And just "domain.com" in control/rcpthosts.

Thanks Tim,
It was my dns setup. Got it all fixed. Didn't have the reverse setup
etc.
Now I can send from any host to my virt. users.
Thanks again,
Mike Martin
I have added example.com to control/rcpthosts, and set up
control/virtualdomains like so:
example.com:alias-example.com
I have created ~alias/qmail-example.com-default, and
~alias/.qmail-example.com-info, each directed to other accounts. I've
restarted qmail. I've also set up DNS MX records accordingly.
When I send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], it bounces:
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Sorry, no mailbox here by that name. (#5.1.1)
Mail to any other address, which should be picked up by the default
entry, also bounces.
If I add a ~alias/.qmail-default with my own address in it, _all_ mail,
virtualdomain or not, gets sent to me.
Help!

Chris Johnson wrote:

Er, please excuse my idiocy but what FAQ are you refering to? Dan's FAQ
does not have section numbering ... http://cr.yp.to/qmail/faq.html.
Nonetheless, I did check Dan's FAQ when setting this up. That is why I
am stumped. The FAQ says,
--BEGIN QUOTE--
How do I set up a virtual domain? I'd like any mail for nowhere.mil,
including [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] and so on, to be
delivered to Bob. I've set up the MX already.
Answer: Add nowhere.mil:bob to /var/qmail/control/virtualdomains, and
tell qmail to read virtualdomains. Add nowhere.mil to
/var/qmail/control/rcpthosts.
Now mail for [EMAIL PROTECTED] will be delivered locally to
bob-whatever. Bob can set up ~bob/.qmail-default to catch all the
possible addresses, ~bob/.qmail-info to catch [EMAIL PROTECTED], etc.
--END QUOTE--
Now, I added nowhere.mil (well, a real domain of course but let's stick
with the example) to control/virtualdomains
(nowhere.mil:alias-nowhere.mil). I "told" qmail to read virtualdomains.
I added nowhere.mil to control/rcpthosts. The MX records were changed
accordingly. I created ~alias/.qmail-nowhere.mil-default with
[EMAIL PROTECTED] as it's contents. Ergo, mail to *@nowhere.mil should go to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
That is not happening. The mail is bouncing with the error quoted in my
first message. If I then create ~alias/.qmail-default with any email
address in it ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) then _all_ email is forwarded to that
address, including all mail for nowhere.mil. Delete
~alias/.qmail-default and mail start bouncing again.
I expect, perhaps incorrectly, that the correct behaviour would be, in
the face of a message to say [EMAIL PROTECTED], to look for these files,
in this order:
~alias/.qmail-nowhere.mil-info
~alias/.qmail-nowhere.mil-default
~alias/.qmail-nowhere.mil
~alias/.qmail-default
~alias/.qmail
Now, maybe it does not check all of those but that is irrelevant.
Obviously, assuming the setup I stated above, all mail to *@nowhere.mil
should be going to [EMAIL PROTECTED] It is not and that is what I was hoping
someone could help me out with.
Claimer: I've read the docs, the HOWTO, LWQ, the FAQ. What I need is
some extra eyes to locate what I am doing wrong, not scripture.

This is the problem
qmail-local replaces any "." in an address with a ":" prior to attempting
a delivery. Change the filename to ~alias/.qmail-nowhere:mil-default and
it will work.

I just tried upgrading to the latest and greatest. A couple of problems:
a) Can't use getdate() as a function name in ezmlm-cgi.c, it conflicts
with a Solaris /usr/include/time.h function - I had to hack that out by
hand.
I already sent this to Fred and he fixed up ezmlm-cgi.c so it's fine now.
b) I compiled and installed idx per the instructions. Now, anytime an
incoming message goes to an ezmlm list, I get the following:
953538244.357569 status: local 1/10 remote 4/80
953538245.050340 delivery 1219510: deferral:
Segmentation_Fault_-_core_dumped/
953538245.050372 status: local 0/10 remote 4/80
953538278.060982 starting delivery 1219511: msg 64726 to local
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
I'm using ezmlm+idx in conjunction with vpopmail (and have been for
awhile).
Running ezmlm-test returns the following:
# ./ezmlm-test
usage: ps [ -aAdeflcjLPy ] [ -o format ] [ -t termlist ]
[ -u userlist ] [ -U userlist ] [ -G grouplist ]
[ -p proclist ] [ -g pgrplist ] [ -s sidlist ]
'format' is one or more of:
user ruser group rgroup uid ruid gid rgid pid ppid pgid sid
pri opri pcpu pmem vsz rss osz nice class time etime stime
f s c lwp nlwp psr tty addr wchan fname comm args
qmail isn't running or ps doesn't work as expected. If
qmail is not running, this script will fail. Will continue...
testing ezmlm-idx: ezmlm-idx-0.40
Using FQDN host name: audi.x.org
-n ezmlm-make (1/2):
OK
-n Using RDBMS support:
No.
-n testing for qmail:
>=1.02
-n ezmlm-reject:
Broken Pipe
Broken Pipe
Broken Pipe
Broken Pipe
Broken Pipe
Broken Pipe
...
It's an endless broken pipe. I did hack out the ezmlm-reject portion of
the file per the test instructions but that doesn't fix this nor does it
help the actual mail server from core dumping.
If I run "file core" on the core I get:
core: ELF 32-bit MSB core file SPARC Version 1, from
'ezmlm-send'
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've searched the list archives
online as best as possible (the ezmlm list seems to be missing from
ezmlm.org..?) For the mean time, I'm going to downgrade back to 0.324. I
really want to use the new ezmlm-cgi and VERH features, so any help comes
with many a thank you in advance! :)
Also - per Fred's recommendation, I compiled WITHOUT optimization using
GCC 2.8.1 just to test another possibility and still the same error/break
point.
Looking forward to eventually getting the new version up and running. :)

Hi folks,
Here is my setup: I have a virtual domain mydomain.com, primary
MX is sendmail, secondary is qmail 1.03.
@ IN MX sendmail.otherdomain.com.
IN MX qmail.otherdomain.com.
I'm testing the qmail installation as a secondary, so I added
mydomain.com ONLY to /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts. I then
killed sendmail on the primary (dont worry, this is a test
domain ;) and sent mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] What happens
is I get a mail loop where it looks like qmail is delivering
the mail to itself over and over again, until it complains
about a mail loop. What do I need to fix?
Thanks, and please reply to me directly also..

MX priorities are missing here. BIND has an odd habbit of making up number
values that are not given explicitly.

I think both your MX records have the same priority. But...shouldn't
qmail-remote detect this and say something like "Oops. I am the top
priority MX but this domain is not in my control/locals?"

I just ran qmail-qsanity on a mailserver. It reports:
message has no entry in info: 492326
message is neither local nor remote: 492326
message has no entry in info: 492165
message is neither local nor remote: 492165
message has no entry in info: 492166
message is neither local nor remote: 492166
How do I fix these messages?

Does anyone have a url or a document that describes in detail how to setup
qmail to send and retrieve mail via UUCP?
The server I wish to configure has qmail installed and working as a
pop3/smtp server. I wish to modify this config to connect to a UUCP mail
system.

Yes it was
/var/qmail/bin/maildirmake $HOME/Maildir
And I have now discovered that it returns a 553 error when tring to send
email from another machine. I can't work that one out yet either.

I'm installing qmail v1.03 doing the installation procedure at INSTALL
file. When I ran " # make setup check"(without quotes), the following
error occurred:
./compile sig_alarm.c
In file included from /usr/include/signal.h:294,
from sig_alarm.c:1:
/usr/include/bits/sigcontext.h:28: asm/sigcontext.h: No such file or

make: *** [sig_alarm.o] Error 1
As I check the content of /usr/include/bits/ there is no asm directory.
What should I do?

can anybody explain me the difference between vmailmgrd and
qmail-pop3d? is it better to switch our mail-server to qmail-pop3d? as
i can see in the readings, qmail-pop3d supports also virtual
users...what is the difference and which one should i take?

Hi,
I know many people have asked this in the past, but is there a simple
way of testing a mail server's concurency and hdd writes, etc - I was
thinking of doing running a small program that will check for mail, d/l
mail and pipe it to /dev/null - but how does a email cleint get mail and
can that be done via a command line - not using telnet!!???
Please help - I am eager to see the performance of a particular install
of qmail??
Thanks

Someone mentioned something about a pair of benchmarking/stress testing
packages, "Rabid", and "Postal" being mentioned on Freshmeat recently...

Write a script or program that opens a socket to port 110, sends the user
and pass commands, and whatever else you want to send.
Use Perl, Php, C, or any other language that has a socket function
