Hello,
Does anybody have Ezmlm +idx compiled and working on Solaris 8? If so,
please send me the procedure you used to get this to compile with gcc.
Thanks,

It's obviously set to not allow relaying unless you first authenticate
(which is done by checking your POP mail.) just like the error says.

I don't know that this is the most efficient way, but you should be able
to prevent all access to any file that starts with .qmail via your ftp
daemon setup.

You are right. wu.ftpd can restrict actions to files or directories
matching a pattern.
I am going to use it for now, but I would prefer to control all mail
relative
stuff from within qmail. I am going to experiment with qmail/users/assign
file and see what I can do.

I'm running four qmail smtp servers with a concurrencyremote of 500 each
one, to do this you need to setup these points :
1) Apply this patch at your qmail-1.03 source tree :
http://www.qmail.org/big-concurrency.patch
2) Before compiling edit conf-spawn and put "500" in the first line
3) Compile and install
4) echo "500" > /var/qmail/control/concurrencyremote
*** If you're using Linux 2.2.x (and 2.0.x I think too) :
echo 65536 > /proc/sys/fs/inode-max
echo 16384 > /proc/sys/fs/file-max
You need to do this every system reboot, I don't know how to make this cange
persistent.
Whit these steps you can get up to 500 qmail-remote proccesses at the same
time..... I'm trying to get more than 500 but at the moment I can't.

I would be shocked if it actually analysed the received headers using
a local list of trusted IP address to figure out where the spam
really came from. All this does is make Joe Jobs a lot more nasty.
My advice to our users is, that if you don't want to learn how to analyse
received headers and actually take the time to do it, complaining just makes
things worse.

The phrase 'proverbial IQ of an amoeba' (hope I translated *that*
correctly) is one my dad has used at times, and I have the feeling that
it's a quite common one.

Generally the amoeba is proverbial, not the IQ (but I can see an argument
either way). :)

You should actually read that as
the proverbial 'IQ of an amoeba'
but I considered those who cared intelligent enough to understand :)
The argument does work either way :)

I assume you're talking about Bruce Guenter's QMAILQUEUE patch, which can be
found at http://www.em.ca/~bruceg/qmail-qfilter/current/ .
A 'patch' is typically a set of changes for a known release of source code.
You use a program called 'diff' to create a patchfile, and a program called
'patch' to apply them, hence the name. Read the manpage for 'patch' on your
system, download the qmail source code, unpack it, and apply the patch.
Then compile and (re-)install qmail.
If these instructions are too terse, you are probably in over your head for
the moment. You should probably stick to a vanilla qmail install until you
have time to do some additional research on the topic.

Actually, the QMAILQUEUE patch is at:
http://em.ca/~bruceg/qmail+patches/sources/qmail-1.03-queuevar.patch
The above is a program that can be used to take advantage of the patch.

Thank you all for the help. Unfortunetly after following the instructions in
your mails qmail-scanner still don't want to compile - it says "can't find
evidence of QMAILQUEUE patch in qmail-smtpd!". I can't figure where is the
problem - in applying the patch or in compiling the scanner?

Hi,
I have a RedHat Linux server with Qmail
as mail server,
and I try to configure it NOT TO RELAY
messages,
i.e. to make it deliver messages only
to/from addresses
in my domain.
I have used the tcp-env setting in
hosts.allow
following the instructions in the
qmail-FAQ
but when I try the test
at
telnet
mail-abuse.org
it says that it can still relay through
my server.
Can anyone help?
Best regards,
AdiM

1. Make sure that /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts exists.
2. Read the explanation of the test you are attempting.
3. Read the qmail mailing list archives -- this has been discussed literally
dozens of times.

"From" addresses in yur domain is a whole different issue than "to" addresses.
Chances are that you don't want to relay just because someone says his e-mail
address is in your domain.

Are you *sure* that's what it says?

Thanks for
answering.
Now I have put this line in
hosts.allow:
tcp-env: 194.102.181.0: setenv =
RELAYCLIENT
and I have
/etc/qmail/control/rcpthosts with the line
buzau.ro
which is the domain hosted by
194.102.181.1
This way, I can't send mail to other
domains!
(except if I remove
rcpthosts)
And yet the test is like this (the last
line says it seems to accept a relay):
[root@tag /etc]# telnet
mail-abuse.org
Trying 204.152.184.74...
Connected to
mail-abuse.org.

What exactly does the message from the relay test say?

Dear all
Can anybody tell me how can i run multiple virtual qmail servers on a
single physical server.
I m having 10 domains in my locals file and i want to run 10 different
servers. One for each domain.
Is it possible to configure it ?
regards

Is there some reason you can't make all the domains virtual? What do you mean
by "ten different servers"?
My suggestion would be to read the documentation on virtual domains, and decide
if there's some functionality you need that virtual domains don't provide.

What are you trying to achieve that can't be done with one copy of
qmail?
> Is it possible to configure it ?
Don't see why not. Either with chroot enviroments (ideally) or qmail
compiled up 10 times with different base paths. Assuming you have 10 IP
address to bind qmail-smtpd of course.

Yes.
However, what you are trying to do is not clear. One interpretation that comes
to mind is you want to host mail for ten domains -- in which case
virtualdomains is your friend. Please explain exactly what you are
trying to accomplish.

This is great. Let me paraphrase:
"qmail is overzealous when delivering lots of messages to lots to
users. Therefore, it should be used on mailing list servers, where
this problem is most pronounced."
Does that make *any* sense, even if you buy the premise? No. It's
exactly backward. If qmail's rapid delivery rate is a problem, the
*last* place you want it is a mailing list server where a single
message multiples into hundreds or thousands of deliveries.
I use qmail with a concurrencyremote of 500 on my list server, and in
almost five years of service I have not received a single complaint.

Help,
I've just installed a patch, spamcontrol, and it's giving me this problem.
I can send and receive email that are outside my domain, but can't have any of
the servers within my domain route to the email server. This is what i get
when I tested it:
Trying

Any help would be

No, virtualdomains doesn't support that kind of wildcarding.

Not quite. Put the following in virtualdomains:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:infonewdawn
Then in ~alias, .qmail-infonewdawn would control mail for "[EMAIL PROTECTED]".
.qmail-infonewdawn-command would control main for "[EMAIL PROTECTED]".
.qmail-infonewdawn-default would control all other mail
for "info-" anything "@thenewdawn.com".

As Dave Sill pointed out, virtauldomains can't be wildcarded quite like the
above shows. You will need one line in virtual domains for each valid
command, e.g.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:infonewdawn
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:infonewdawn-command1
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:infonewdawn-command2
...

Sorry about that last blank email... I accidentally hit ctrl-s instead
of ctrl-d. :-)
Anyway, no you cannot use wildcard matching in this way, however, you
could create an alias that handles *all* email for a given virtual
domain as in:
thenewdawn.com:thenewdawn
Then in ~alias have
.qmail-thenewdawn-info
With the proper mail delivery directives. Then if you wanted another,
say [EMAIL PROTECTED] you would create
~alias/.qmail-thenewdawn-info:sales

I want to forward everything for [EMAIL PROTECTED] to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] to

Unfortunately I'm rather confused as how to do this! I can't create a

How do I go about this?

Add the following to control/virtualdomains:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:thenewdawn
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:someotherdomain
Then create ~alias/.qmail-thenewdawn-info containing:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
and ~alias/.qmail-someotherdomain-info containing:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Make one (or probably both) of "thenewdawn.com" and "someotherdomain.com"
a virtual domain. Read the man page for qmail-send for information about
what to put in /var/qmail/control/virtualdomains to effect this.

Could be you're listed more than once on the envelope. Could also be
that you have a .qmail file that generates duplicates.
Closely examining the headers of a pair of duplicates should provide

No, qmail doesn't generate BOGUS files by itself. Something is causing
qmail to generate it. What do the logs say?

How do you know they weren't? All you know is that a copy showed up
in the BOGUS.* file.
> Is the BOGUS.* file a normal qmail operation ? and if so, what might help
> to prevent this problem in the future.
No. It's entirely something specific to your site. Furthermore, it has
been created by root and, qmail does not run any user processes as
root - ever. Who has root on that system? Have you asked all those people?
> Any insights greatly apreciated.
Show us the logs of the delivery of those emails. You have the headers
of those mails so you can find the log framents.
Also, you need to tell us more about your qmail installation. Is it standard
or is it modified in some way? What delivery instructions are there for the
user in question?
Regards.

I don't think qmail would create a file owned by root!

The BOGUS files almost certainly came from procmail, when it discovered
that something was odd (in its opinion) with directory permissions or
some such.

There is a mail client that creates BOGUS.* files. I can't remember

Files that have 'BOGUS' in their name make me suspect procmail as the
culprit. If you use procmail I'd start by looking there.

Outgoing mail for a single ISP account and multiple local domains is
handled well as described in
http://www.i2k.net/~dougvw/mailqueue.html
It seems to me that this won't work for more than one ISP where the mail
to be placed in a (or each?) queue should be based on the domain part of
the From: address (the method described in the link appears to me to
work on a fall through based on the To: address by qmail-send).
Is there another means of queuing outgoing mail (preferably in a
Maildir) based on the domain part of the From: address where there are
multiple local users too?
e.g.:
mail From: [mary|fred|bob]@abc.com should be sent via isp1
and
mail From: [mary|fred|bob]@bcd.com should be sent via isp2
and should be sent separately on connection to the appropriate ISP.
All of the outgoing mail is through one qmail. It is possible to send
all of the abc.com mail through a bcd.com ISP connection and vice versa
but that is what we'd like to avoid (header confusion).
I may be barking up the wrong tree here so let me know if that's the
case and point me in the right direction. TIA.

But this is what ISP SMTP relays are _for_. qmail will let you override
the default routing of messages based on the domain part of the destionation
address with smtproutes, but I've never seen any patches to allow what
you describe above.
The only way I can think of is to have multiple qmail installations
(/var/qmail-isp1, /var/qmail-isp2). Have an smtproutes file for each which
directs all outgoing mail to a particular SMTP relay server. Then have the
user use the appropriate qmail-inject (/var/qmail-isp1/bin/qmail-inject or
/var/qmail-isp2/bin/qmail-inject).

Are you possibly setting the MAIL FROM address to be the same as the one
that appears in the message head for Return-Path? If so, that might be where
the problem is. I could be wrong, but I think the format for the MAIL FROM
should be the simple form of the address, without the decorative name
attached (per RFC821). Whatever you use to talk to your smtp daemon should
probably only present an address in the form [EMAIL PROTECTED] when setting
MAIL FROM as in:
MAIL FROM: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
And then, later, set the reply-to address to anything reasonable, when
you're pumping header info to the server.

Thanks David.
Sounds great. But where exactly can I set the MAIL FROM address format in
qmail? I don't remember this as a configurable option. & if it was, can I
reconfigure it without rejigging everything?

Are you possibly setting the MAIL FROM address to be the same as the one
that appears in the message head for Return-Path? If so, that might be where
the problem is. I could be wrong, but I think the format for the MAIL FROM
should be the simple form of the address, without the decorative name
attached (per RFC821). Whatever you use to talk to your smtp daemon should
probably only present an address in the form [EMAIL PROTECTED] when setting
MAIL FROM as in:
MAIL FROM: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
And then, later, set the reply-to address to anything reasonable, when
you're pumping header info to the server.

Hey all -
I've had a recurring problem which is getting worse. It seems mail is being
rejected by a lot of mail servers which do a DNS lookup because they're
seeing mybox.com> (note the >) taken from
Return-Path:<"\"joeuser\" mailto:joeuser"@mybox.com>>
(my domain does exist & is listed in a DNS)
then, to add insult to injury, qmail on mybox is rejecting the mail because
it can't find the user joeuser" (note the quotation mark) and is bounced

Has anyone ever encountered this & how do you fix this?

That gets set by whatever program is talking to QMAIL - be it your mail
program or list server, etc.. If you wanted to try this manually you could
do (provided you had a system at mail.foobar.com) the following (lines with
* are replies from qmail (or any compliant smtp server):
[foo]# telnet mail.foobar.com 25 (talk to port 25 on your system)
HELO foobar.com
250 foobar.com *
MAIL FROM: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
250 OK *
RCPT TO: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
250 OK *
DATA
354 go ahead *
Subject: Hello
Reply-To: "Al Gore" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
(etc., etc.)
(extra line feed to separate header from body)
(dot linefeed to end session)
It's not a configurable option because it's not qmail doing it - it the
program talking to qmail.

What looks like is happening is that the address feild on the from
line is being used as the envelope sender address. This is not
what you want. That string is an rfc 822 encoding of an email address.
The field on the return-path header is an rfc 821 encoding of the
previous string (enclosed in angle brackets).
I didn't see a header that indicated what mail agent you are using.
However it is also possible you stuck the incorrect value into the
environment and that is getting picked up by qmail-inject.
I have a working qmail server that's been running fine for a year. It handles
over a hundred virtual domains. I have lots of .qmail-xxx files for forwarding
and delivering incoming mail to specific mailboxes and it's all been working
fine.
I'm trying to set up a filter that reads incoming mail. I wrote the filter,
tested it at the command line, then installed it in my .qmail-default file in
my home directory:
# .qmail-default
|/bin/python mailfilter.py
./Maildir/
When I send mail to myself it goes to my maildir but the filter isn't executed.
In fact NOTHING I put in the .qmail-default file is executed. I tried:
|touch /home/greg/qmail-was-here
But that didn't do anything, either.
On my server qmail is running with ./Maildir/ as the default delivery option
(from the qmail-start command). As best I can tell the .qmail-default file in
my home directory is not even looked at when delivering mail, but all of the
other .qmail-xxx-default files for the virtual domains are working.
All of the .qmail-* files in my home directory are owned by user greg and have
the same permissions: rwxr--r--.
Mail delivery is working; messages go into my Maildir just fine.
I have reloaded and restarted qmail.
My virtualdomains and rcpthosts files are correct, and my local domain is in
both files. The server routinely receives and delivers mail to local users.
Any ideas are welcome. Thanks!

I didn't see anything unusual in the qmail logs or the system log
(/var/logs/messages).

This is going to sound extremely crazy, but just asking cos I
can... is there a .qmail-greg file in ~alias? AND is greg a system
user? AND is there a user called greg in any of your virtual domains?

hello friends
i am using qmail-1.03 with qmail-ldap-patch , for pop authentication i
am using auth_pop ( for ldap authentication)programme which comes with a
qmail-ldap-patch,
i am running smtp and pop with tcpserver ,
is there any way by which i can log ip address of offending client and
the user name for all the pop3 failed Authentication requests ,
if this is not possible then ,then its of no use because almost all ISPs

This attitude is starting to get to me, Reach. If qmail doesn't suit
your purposes, then go and buy something that does. I'm sure you will
enjoy the level of support you get from a commercial product (*cough
cough*)
On that note, have you searched the qmail archives? You'd be amazed
what is in there...

Also, experimentation doesn't hurt. You learn a lot more that way...

You mean limitind access based on IP numbers? This will only work
for users with fixed IPs.
To summarize:
It looks like we can't have POP3+SSL+Relay control + running in a secure way.

SMTP is not secure. That's just the way it is. There is no reason to run
SSL on your SMTP port.

Hey list,
I'd like to change the FROM header in mails with a special FROM.
For example: The FROM header is postmaster@localhost and I
want to change it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] while it is
delivered to a users Maildir. Is it possible with a .qmail file?
Greetings

Hi,
We previously had a PC running W98 and a postoffice system to
distribute
internal and external e-mails to networked pcs using Outlook, but
at my suggestion (!) my
assistant set up a replacement on a pc set up as a
linux box with a printer, qmail,
fetchmail, and hylafax installed - and had
just got the system up and running when he left.
I am unable to contact
him so am trying to catch up with about 3 months of his
setting and problem
solving to get/keep the system working.
I am not sure if it has always
been so, but it appears that when we address
items to eachother within the
company, e-mails are sent to our ISP and back
again to reach the
recipient. Although this does work, it seems very
wasteful and
time-consuming, so my (first) question is: Can I set anything
so that these
local e-mails are handled locally by Outlook.
*** Since
writing the above, I have found the ..control/local file,
which does appear
to have the correct lines in it, but still the system
seems not to do a local
send, as the message stays in the outbox for a
number of minutes.
Each
user has an address like [EMAIL PROTECTED]
and addresses the local
linux server 89.1.1.100. Although I do
not fully understand it yet, the
system has some individual addresses like
this, and a group called 'others'
which have identities in qmail (or
fetchmail ?) which direct the mail to
their own /home/fbloggs/Mailbox/new -
cur - ??
These seem to be working, as I do get mails arriving at the
postmaster's
terminal (my assistant's pc) and others when they are correctly
addressed,
but because of 'local' not working, I cannot quickly transfer any
'unknown'
messages from the postmasters pc where they end up to the correct
users
locally when I identify the recipient from the text - it takes
ages.
As a related/unrelated problem, if the 'Check for new mail on'
function is used in Outlook, the Outlook
program 'hangs' for a long time -
even before the 'Checking for messages
....' message appears - is this normal
?? (I hope not)
I am sure my questions are very vague and unclear, but if
you can assist
me whilst I try to catch up with the mass of documentation on
qmail etc, I
would be most grateful.
