Kurth, This virus that you speak of doesn't come from the sexxyfun.net but from an infected windows machine. Have a look in the full headers look for address in a received header.. However it will change for each infected machine that sends it. I contacted the ISP that the email originated from(one of their Dial-up customers). The dealt with it promptly. For more infomation, follow the URL below... http://www.datafellows.com/v-descs/hybris.htm Hope this throws some light on the subject... George Patterson PS: I agree with the subject line...

Hy all,All my virtual e-mail account clients are complaining about recieving multiple messages sometimes. They don't recieve the same amount of multiple messages, and not all the time. It seems to happen "randomly". I use vpopmail to administrate my virtual accounts.I by myself got this error when I was mading some tests: I sent various messages to one test email account, everything worked fine, suddenly, in one test, I sent from my outlook express 1 message to that email account. When I listed his maildir, I saw he recieved 4 times my single message. The messages have subtle diferences in it's headers(in red). I don't know how to interpret it. Could someone help me? Bellow, are the 4 messages headers.thanks!the first: name: 978041164.20999.falcon,S=2292Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Hi! I have a little problem. I'm trying to forward mail from local user maildir to remote address. I need to change "To:" field 'on the fly' I mean: when mail is forwarding from local [EMAIL PROTECTED] to remote [EMAIL PROTECTED] it comes with local user address in "To" header. How to change this? I know the .qmail commands &address and |prog but they doesn't work. Any ideas? Thx for advice. Maciej Kozlowski. [EMAIL PROTECTED]

See: http://www.faqts.com/knowledge_base/view.phtml/aid/1167/fid/208 "How can I set the timezone used in headers? Why is the time wrong in headers? Mar 3rd, 2000 10:58 Dave Sill qmail uses Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), instead of the local timezone, in any timestamps it creates. This is indicated by the "-0000" at the end of the date specification. It means "no offset from GMT". (Eastern Standard Time has an offset of "-0500" which means five hours before GMT.) qmail uses GMT for two reasons: first, it makes it easier to track messages that pass through multiple timezones, and second, converting to the local timezone requires linking with the standard C runtime library, which DJB has gone to great lengths to avoid since it can be a source of security and reliability problems. There are two headers fields where qmail puts a time: Received and Date. qmail will only add a Date field to locally-injected (not SMTP) messages that don't already have a Date field. If you don't like the Date header qmail adds, either configure your mail user agent (MUA) to add them, or use the "datemail" command to inject messages instead of qmail-inject. Some people even replace qmail-inject with a symbolic link to datemail. Received fields are always stamped in UTC. Changing this would require a source code patch, and would be ill-advised for the reasons stated above." --- P.S: sou brasileira, se quiser trocar "figurinhas" sobre o qmail me procure ... estou come�ando a usa-lo em substituicao ao Sendmail.

Hi I use FreeBSD 4.2 OS end Qmail 1.03 (ported version) We have Installed Qmail and configured . It is Working fine. Now we need to Authenticate SMTP connections. How to go about?

-- I need urgently to configure the relay in the qmail and I'm not getting. My situation is the following: I have several users that are connected my server to receive and to send e-mails. Those users are not in my network. Everybody has dynamic IPs because they connect to the Internet through several others ISPs. For that reason I opted for the POP-before-SMTP authentication, and I installed the package "relay-ctrl". I followed all the instructions of the file "Readme": # gzip -dc relay-ctrl-2.5.tar.gz | tar xvf - # make # make root-install After, I put in crontab the followed lines: * * * * * /usr/sbin/relay-ctrl-age And, in the file /etc/rc.d/init.d/qmail, I insert the followed lines between "esac" and "exit 0": tcpserver -v -R 0 pop3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup pop3.tecnohost.com.br \ /bin/checkpassword /usr/sbin/relay-ctrl-allow /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir 2>&1 | \ /var/qmail/bin/splogger pop3d & So, as nothing happened, I read all messages in the list archive about "relay-ctrl" and I discovered that was necessary to do more things than file "Readme" didn't explain: 1. Create the directory /etc/relay-ctrl 2. Create some files and put inside the /etc/relay-ctrl: 2.1. expiry 2.2. rule 2.3. rulesdir 2.4. smtpcdb 2.5. smtprules 2.6. spooldir 2.7. tcprules 3. Inside this files, put: 3.1. expiry = 900 3.2. rule = :allow,RELAYCLIENT='' 3.3. rulesdir = /etc 3.4. smtpcdb = tcp.smtp.cdb 3.5. smtprules = tcp.smtp 3.6. spooldir = /var/spool/relay-ctrl 3.7. tcprules = /usr/local/bin/tcprules 4. Create the directory /var/spool/relay-ctrl/ 5. After all, I reboot the computer. I would like to know if still need to do more some thing... 'Cause as I said before, in README it doesn't explain practically anything. Most of the things that I did was through the messages of that list. As if I was joining pieces of a puzzle. I ask that, because the things are not still working. :-((( See what it's already working: 1. The users can receive messages from any domain out of my network. 2. The users can send messages for any domain out of my network. See what is not still working: 1. The users can send messages without receive first. 2. Inside the /var/spool/relay-ctrl/ a file is created with the name of the address IP that is using the e-mail in the moment. But this file stay empty (is that correct?) and is not never deleted. Please help me! I'm there are days trying to solve that without success. I don't know more than to do. -- Thanks, Ana Paula

TIME_WAIT means that a connection has been closed but the server is hanging around for a little bit to clear up any packets that belong to that connection. Look at the TIME_WAIT lines: Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State tcp 0 0 192.168.1.2:25 10.10.0.3:1070 TIME_WAIT If 'Local Address' has :25 after it, then yes, it was a mail connection that is waiting to be cleaned up. If it has a different port, then it is a different type of connection. Seeing some of these is not necessarily an indication of a problem. Seeing a large number of these may indicate a problem. -- gowen -- Greg Owen -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] SoftLock.com is now DigitalGoods!
We have two Linux servers using dial up links to connect to the net. One is using qmail & other is using sendmail. Sometimes one is not connected to the net & sometimes the other is not. We want that each of the offline servers should forward its mail to the server connected to the net. Preferably this should be automated but even a minor configuration change that can be scripted is acceptable. Does anybody have a suggestion how this can be implemented. With best regards. Sanjay.
We use qmail on RH Linux 6.2 and connect through multiple isps....use the isp giving the best connection at the time... I want qmail to initiate multiple smtp sessions so as to send mail faster. How to accomplish this through a dial-up connection? Also, my server makes a direct smtp connection & I want to configure it to use my isp's server for forwarding the mail. Also, if this can be configure to accomodate possibility of different isp's being dialled...it would be great. Hope someone can give me some pointers. With best regards. Sanjay.

No configuration necessary. However, you may want to raise your concurrencyremote limit if you are latency bound instead of bandwidth bound. Read `man qmail-send` for more details.

Hello folks. I'm trying to send emails with PHP (Linux) through a remote mailserver running qmail 1.03. I'm using the smtp-send class by M Lemos. The problem is that ALL emails being sent get a weird header at the first line: Return-Path: <"johan <johan"@mail.johanbjork.com> Exactly like that it looks! And I'm not trying to set that header in PHP. Even if I do, it still look as bad. If I use exactly the same code but send mail through another mail server (one running sendmail), everything works fine. So I wonder if anyone knows what possibly could be wrong? --- Johan Bj�rk
Actually, the log file says the following: Jan 4 16:43:18 mail qmail: 978622998.812528 info msg 34119: bytes 406 from <johan_<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> qp 1193 3 uid 502 So it's a bit strange I reccon.

And I'm not trying to set that header in PHP. I'm not familiar with the class you refer to, but qmail constructs the Return-Path: header from the envelope sender. It looks like your envelope sender is in a non-standard format, like: "Comment" <address> which is fine for From: and To: headers, but not for the envelope sender or recipient. Specify the envelope sender as only <address> and it might work better.

Have you considered authenticated SMTP? That way clients would have to verify themselves each time they sent out a message, similar to the POP login procedure. There is a very good patch for qmail that enables the ESMTP AUTH command, written by Krzysztof Dabrowski, available at www.qmail.org/top.html. Personally I think that ESMTP AUTH is a much cleaner way of doing things than SMTP-after-POP, and most major mail clients support it, including Outlook and Outlook Express. ---Kris

By the looks, raypatima has fixed the problem - no doubt with the help of a few on this list - but I'd like to add that raypatima made life very easy for everyone simply because he chose to supply the real domain name rather than cloak it.

Please use the qmail-ldap mailing list for qmail-ldap specifica. It is possible to run qmail-ldap with OpenLDAP 2.x, the newest patch 20010101 has the needed schemas included - with officially IANA assigned OIDs. > I've got qmail-ldap working with openldap 1.xx for one year and a half > and never had any problem. > > > > Many thanks, > > > P.-J. -- Henning Brauer | BS Web Services Hostmaster BSWS | Roedingsmarkt 14 [EMAIL PROTECTED] | 20459 Hamburg www.bsws.de | Germany

Hi all I have a problem. Optus@Home in Australia (one of two cable internet providers) have decided to firewall port 25 traffic (incoming) to their entire network except for their own mail servers. This means my mail server is virtually useless. They have blocked smtp traffic since their entire IP range was being listed with ORBS and other open relay databases since their users were operating open relays. I'll agree, the network is run like crap since Optus let this happen in the first place, but the other alternative (Telstra) is not any better by a long shot. I have provided a temporary work around, setting up my work mail server as the primary MX then routing to a different port, on my Optus@Home server, which I am now running qmail on. This works, but it is not very nice. Does anyone have any ideas how I can get out of this problem with Optus firewalling port 25? Or is the way I have just described the only perceivable way of doing this (the latter would be my thinking, but I ask in hope of the former). It would be nice (however dumb and time-and-resource-wasting) if I could tell clients coming to my server to use a different port for their SMTP connection, but I haven't seen anything even slightly to this degree in all my walkings.

If no less personal solutions are available, then I will try it. Getting to talk to the administration of telcorp's here in Australia is harder than finding a tinny of VB in Alaska at the moment. They don't particularly care about their customers, and they know that (at the moment), there are only two cable providers in the whole country and both are as crap as the other. However, thanks for the suggestion. I may yet have no other alternative. -- B r e t t R a n d a l l http://xbox.ipsware.com/ brett _ @ _ ipsware.com

It also gives me a range of static IPs and an IN-ADDR classless routing lookup for the names. Anyway this is OT.. time to go.

I am trying to send mail from host FROM_HOST (1.2.3.4) to host TO_HOST (1.2.3.5). The mail is addressed to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]". qmail is running on both hosts. Unfortunately, TO_HOST refuses the mail. However, TO_HOST will accept the mail if it is addressed to "user@domain". Both the qmail/control/rcpthosts and qmail/control/locals files on TO_HOST contain: [1.2.3.5] domain The following is a snip of the error message presented by FROM_HOST when TO_HOST rejects mail addressed in the form "user@ip_address" rather than "user@domain": Hi. This is the qmail-send program at FROM_HOST. 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]>: 1.2.3.5 does not like recipient. Remote host said: 553 sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts (#5.7.1) Giving up on 1.2.3.5. Is there additional information I must add to the qmail/control/rcpthosts file on TO_HOST to coax TO_HOST into accepting mail addressed in the form "user@ip_address"? Thanks! - Bernie

Hi! Does anybody has an idea why my qmail-setup performs so poorly? 200 messages take 300 seconds to be delivered locally on a Athlon 800MHz 128MB Ram running FreeBSD 4.2 OS.
Hi again, Why are so many messages not preprocessed?

Where do I put the startup commands for qmail pop3d? All the HOWTOs, which are excellent on all other aspects, just say, oh stick in a line that says:tcpserver 0 pop3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup YOURHOST \
/bin/checkpassword /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir &I've tried putting in in /var/qmail/rc, /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd/run and running it from a command line, but the only one that works is the third option (which is obviously unsatisfactory).I realize this is a pretty newbie question, and thank you in advance for your help.

I am a fresh user of Qmail and I have some question when I configurate it. I
hope you may help me to solve these problem. Thx.
1) I have setup a Qmail and the domain of the mail server is mail.abc.com
(abc is not the true domain)
and now I want the users of def.com can also use the smtp service of my
Qmail server. I have started the tcpserver with the following rules:
192.168.0.:allow,RELAYCLIENT=""
def.com:allow,RELAYCLIENT=""
abc:allow,RELAYCLIENT=""
:allow
Nevertheless, the smtp server still doesn't work. I just want the user with
the email address [EMAIL PROTECTED] can send email through my Qmail server. What
other things I need to do or where can I seek for help?
Thank you very much if you can help me!!!
cheers,
CK

And relaying based on the envelope sender address is a really bad idea (tm). Consider using smtp after pop or s/t like that. To become familiar with tcpserver and solve your problem, read a) all qmail, daemontools and ucspi-tcp related stuff on http://cr.yp.to b) http://www.lifewithqmail.org/ c) check for additionals at http://www.qmail.org > cheers, > > CK ---------------------------------------- Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1"; name="Anhang: 1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Description: ---------------------------------------- -- Henning Brauer | BS Web Services Hostmaster BSWS | Roedingsmarkt 14 [EMAIL PROTECTED] | 20459 Hamburg www.bsws.de | Germany
Hi! Is there any way to run mails through a script after or before it enters qmail-inject? What i want, is to parse a Mail, and to remove unwanted characters from the mail. I already tried to replace qmail-inject with a script that afterwards calls qmail-inject, but that doesn't seem to work right, i sometimes get dublicated Mails !? The original problem i have, is that some remote smtp servers weren't happy with dos formatted mails (\n\r) it seems that those \n\r were removed, therefore the mail showed up in one single line. It strangely only happened with some smtp's qmail->qmail and qmail->exchange seem to have this problem, qmail->postfix seems to be ok. I'd be glad if anybody could comment on this problem ! -- Claus Beerta [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hello I'm a newbie to qmail and I'm looking for information on its use. Have already check the FAQ's but didn't find an answer there. Is it possible for qmail, qmail-popup, qmail-pop3d to use Microsoft SQL Server to aunthenticate its users?
