Well... it worked, but when I change qmail-queue to:
[root@www bin]# cat qmail-queue
#! /bin/sh
exec /var/qmail/qfilter/qmail-qfilter /usr/bin/perl -n -e '{print}'
and it bombs with "451 qq temporary problem (#4.3.0)".
any ideas?

When I run test in TEST.deliver, I only get the prompt back. I tried
using diff variations on the user name. Set up folowing life with qmail.
[kerryb@kerryb doc]$ echo to: kerryb | /var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject
[kerryb@kerryb doc]$ echo to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] |
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject
[kerryb@kerryb doc]$ echo to: kerryb.basicq.com |
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject
What is this telling me?

That it isn't working ;-)
Important question: What Do The Logs Say (tm)
/var/log/qmail/current is the important one ;)
What's the output of ps -ax | grep qmail?
I tried mailing you, but i get a deferral : Unable to establish SMTP connection
This hints that your smtpd isn't running....
I've forwarded the error messages to the address listed in the whois info for
basicq.com
because mailing to [EMAIL PROTECTED] also returns an error ....
Be sure to also check /var/log/qmail/smtpd/current

basicq.com is a new domain I just set up on my box. DNS is being by a
local flux member on his isp. He has MX pointing to basicq,con, at my
address. I am using netscape mail to get and sent from my blalock1.com
address, on another server. I have not had my own mail server before
(as if it dosen't show :)). I do have a firewall box in between.
sendmail was recieving via fetchmail before I killed it. Where should
the messages sent be delivered? I'm a little fuzzy on that, probably
because qmail not working.

This is definately NOT right !
If this is in /var/log/qmail/smtpd/current there's something wrong with
/var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd/run ....
Are you sure you followed the lwq instructions to the letter ?
I'll mail you the relevant files off-list, maybe it's easier to compare them ;)

It's part of the ucspi-tcp package. Check www.qmail.org.

hi again
Well I have installed now qmail pop-3 and vpopmail, but now I tried
to read my mails via pop3 mailreader.
After I logged on entered login/passwd. The program gave me dialog:
'The mail server responded: this user has no $HOME/Maildir.
Please enter a new password'
seems like some configuration went wrong? Or did I start the program
wrongly?
This is normal user from /etc/passwd, not virtual domain user
Start command:
env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:/usr/local/bin" tcpserver -H -R 0 pop-3
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup pegasus.nuvo.fi /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Mailbox &
Hi,
Try 'man qmail-pop3d' :-)
qmail-pop3d doesn't support mbox type mailboxes.
It only supports Maildir ....
HTH,
Steffan

uh? My qmail does Mailbox everytime when mail comes (and it's maybe
default?? option), but what is this Maildir?:) how to put qmail do this?

You're partly right. Read 'man qmail-pop3d' again ;)
And also try 'man maildir' ....
qmail at large supports Maildir as well as Mailbox type deliveries, as well
as some other less frequently used formats.
qmail-pop3d on the other hand ONLY supports Maildir for remote retrieval
with POP3.
With regards to Maildir vs. Mailbox configuration, try lwq ....

I'm considering writing an auto-responder in AWK for qmail.
My initial thought is to grab the 'From:' field and use it if there is
no 'reply-to' field and then call qmail-inject. Does anyone see any
glaring wholes thus far?
(no, using AWK doesn't count as a whole. It's still a kick arse tool. )

Auto responder should look for Return-Path or envelope sender, not
Reply-To or From. Imagine if someone in a mailing list that has a
Reply-To set up to the mailing list uses an autoresponder.
Make sure the autoresponder does not send autoresponses to bounces or
postmaster, mailer-daemon and such. I think yahoo's autoresponder does
this, I notified them but I don't think they get it, or even care.
Bounces has null return path <>, so it shouldn't be a problem if
autoresponders follow Return-Path to send emails in the first place.

Yes, thank you, this I know. I'm writing this one because I want a solution
that I can implement anywhere without the need for other 'special' tools.

Hello
I hope im doing this right :-)
i'm new to qmail, in fact i just installed it...
i read all the faqs and guides, and i still have some questions:
(bare in mind im not that genius with unix, so forgive me if those r stupid
questions)
i want to be able to use qmail as my mail server software.
as such, i want it to be able to answer both smtp and pop3 requests.
while inside the unix box, my config works fine, im not able to use it, from
outside
i guess thats because i havent configured properly the services in the
inetd.conf file
now, i saw the line about configuring the smtp service, and did that
but no text was given about the pop3 service, which is also needed by me...
perhaps i got it all wrong
can someone please shed some light on this subject?
thanks a bunch in advance
Haim

Hello! First of all, newbie is typically spelled N-E-W-B-I-E :) Details,
details.
Your assessment of possible problems with inetd.conf seems likely. Note
that it is no longer recommended that you run smtp services under inetd,
and that you use tcpserver instead. You can find out everything you need
to know about tcpserver here:
http://web.infoave.net/~dsill/lwq.html
and here:
http://www.flounder.net/qmail/qmail-howto.html
As for POP3, you can run it under tcpserver as well, but if you want to
leave it in inetd, you should have a line that looks something like this:
pop3 stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/libexec/popper popper
where popper is a POP3 server that you know to work with your config.
The other avenue to explore is making sure that you're not blocking access
to your mail services from the outside world with tcp wrappers. Chances
are your system has tcp wrappers installed, so you want to look for
/usr/local/etc/hosts.allow or /etc/hosts.allow and then read
# man 5 hosts_access
(or the equivalent on your system) to make sure the proper traffic can get
through.
This should at least get you started in the right direction. Unlikely as
it might seem, your problem can probably be solved by some or all of the
qmail documentation.

Hi Folks,
I'm looking for a GNU/GPL/Freeware email management package that is "happy"
with Qmail.
Specifically, I need to be able to send emails to 100,000+ "subscribers" on
a weekly basis.
I'd also like to be able to automatically remove bounces, support
blacklists, etc.
Something in MySQL or otherwise would be great.

Sounds like you want ezmlm with the ezmlm-idx patch. Does everything you
want and more.

Hi, Biancalana,
I have modified Qmail to support Oracle 8i. The major
point of the modification is in qmail-getpw.c and checkpassword.c, adding
authentication module based on oracle user information table.
This authentication module can use Oracle Proc
Language or user java write a daemon dealing access oracle and then user socket
to access this daemon.
Lucky!

Subject: Qmail with Oracle
Hi All, I have Qmail installed in Red Hat 6.2 and it works fine, but we need to authenticate users with Oracle. I have downloaded vpopmail package v4.8.4 but it does not seem to compile, because I think this package has Oracle support. Does anybody know how to compile vpopmail and then authenticate users with it? Where can I find some documentation or some patch in order to fix this problem? Have anybody made Oracle 8.1.6 work with Qmail? Thanks, Alexandre Biancalana
