Not all clients out are supporting smtp-auth (unfortunately). If your
clients are employees, this is fixable, if they are customers, i don't see
an alternative to smtp after pop - smtp auth additionally is a good idea.

This is a smtp after pop solution, no SMTP AUTH. SMTP AUTH is an SMTP
protocol extension allowing clients to authentificate via username+password
during the smtp session, not before through pop as with smtp poplock. As
everybody could easily see this requires always patching qmail.

Why?
You could install a smtpd wrapper that answers the smtp auth stuff and
updates the pop tcpserver database on the fly.

Hi all,

my host name is: vasu.domain.com
my main branch host name is: email.domain.com
domain name is: domain.com
Can anybody help me how to fix this atthe earliest.
Thanx

Need more information from the logs, and the output of qmail-showctl.

Is your domain really in DNS, or are you putting it in the hosts
file?
qmail doesn't refer to the hosts file ever, only to DNS.

Last I checked (as in a few seconds ago) domain.com is registered to
a US company, in Pennsylvania, that happens to be a domain registrar.
You're in India, if I'm not mistaken. Have you purchased domain.com
from them?
What I'm trying to say is that you should give us real information.

Yes. You can use this code:
<li><a href="http:[EMAIL PROTECTED]">Paul Gregg</a> has a
script
which runs from a .qmail file that checks a Maildir for a quota
(clearly only effective on a userless mailhub). The script is called
<a
href="http://www.tibus.net/pgregg/projects/qmail/mailquotacheck/">mailquotacheck</a>.
or else you can use my friend's direct patch to qmail-local which adds
up the sizes of the files in the Maildir, and bounces the mail if they
add up to too big a number. Unfortunately, he used standard C library
string functions instead of djblib string functions. He's going to
rewrite it, but it's not ready yet.

Subject: #4.3.0 error
Hi everyone!
I use qmail-1.03, vpopmail and qmailadmin. When I create a new virtual
domain and I try to send some
message to a pop account of it I get the next message from the server:
Jan 9 11:58:34 main qmail: 979037914.190687 delivery 5299: deferral:
Unable_to_switch_to_/home/vpopmail/domains/dominio.com:_access_denied._(
#4.3.0)/
I see that the directory wasn't created with appropiate permission to
vpopmail, so I change it by
hand leaving it as other domains (that work) are. But it fails again.
I'm not sure if it is a
problem due to vpopmail or qmail.
If someone now something about the problem or the error I get please
let me know it.
Best Regards.

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone else has had this issue. I am running listserv
lists with about 10k in one list and 20k in the other.
It seems that since i switched to Linux as the operating system instead of
BSD, the que gets stuck on one domain and takes forever.
The only way to get mail out in a reasonable amount of time is to kill all
qmail daemons and restart. When I was using BSD
this was never an issue. I have to use Linux since the listserv program runs
on this server as well and Listserv doesn't make a
Linux binary available. (I've tried emulation, no good).
Thanks for any input,
Collin

Of course if you showed relevant log files of your problem then we'd
be able to have a technical discussion rather than a seance...
In the absence of any information about your system, your mail setup
or your delivery logs, we can only assure you that lots of places run
qmail without problems on varying versions of Linux (dunno about your
version, you didn't say what it is), so it's probably something
specific to your system.
As an aside, if you still have the BSD machine and you cannot solve
this particular problem, you may want to consider using qmail-qmqpc on
Linux forwarding to your BSD box. That way you get listserv running on
Linux and mail delivery running on BSD.
Regards.
I do have some relevant log files, however they are quite large. I am
running RedHat Linux
6.2. Previously I was using OpenBSD 2.7. Thanks for the tip on qmail-qmqpc,
I'll look into this.

Hello all,
Per Mark's suggestion I have put my maillogs up for perusal at this URL:
http://listserv.investorlinks.com/qmail/
I am using Qmail 1.03 on RedHat Linux 6.2. I have applied big-concurrency,
big-todo, fastforward and dotforward.
I also am use the tcpserver from uscpi tools. I have soft linked my rc file
and controls directory as well.
My kernel FD_DESCRIPTORs are set at 4096 and I used systctl.conf to change
my fs.inode-max to 65536 and
my fs.file-max to 16384. The symptoms so far have been an increase in
delivery times unless I restart qmail every day or so.
I also have noticed my queue stays around 300 or so permanently and
unprocessed mailings are around 10 during high load, 2 during normal
operation. If there is any other relevant information that you can think of
let me know. Thanks, I'd really appreciate any input you can give.

It's guarding against ascending via "..".

That's the assumption, but which Unixen legitimately traverses based
on a name like .qmail-../../../etc/passwd?
Most Unixen I've seen insist that the first component be a valid
directory.

The dash field need not be "-". In particular, it can end in "/", so
that ".." in ext would work, if left unaltered.

Understand, but I can't seem to get past the OS wanting the first
component to be a directory. I guess if people had a .qmail
directory... But is there a way without the recipient doing something
silly?

Right, it does - or rather, *every* component, except the last.

As I do.
> But is there a way without the recipient doing something silly?
If you have a .qmail directory, and a +user- line in users/assign, a
sender could send to user-../foo@host to access .qmail/../foo as a
.qmail delivery file.

hi,
I would like to ask more experienced mail admins around here to help me
check this bounce msg. My main concern is that I am not sure whether it
is my customer (signoplast.com.ar) who's infected.
It's not clear to me if (66.60.1.118) is the originator of the msg or
the originator of the bounce. Could anyone be so kind as to give me some
hints on how should I read this?
Thanks!

To whomever,
I am having a wierd problem with hotmail.com smtp connections,
Anyone in the world can send to me however when I send to hotmail.com it
won't accept any smtp connection.
I can send to yahoo or whomever accept to hotmail and certain other
domains. I know I am not black listed since this machine is brand new.
Any ideas? And I have checked my reverse maps and they work properly.
Signed,
Corey
Corey,
Is the IP brand new? If the IP has ever been used by a spammer, it could
be on a lit somewhere. I would advise looking it up at www.mail-abuse.org
and www.orbs.org just in case.
Also, what happens if you manually connect to the hotmail server to send a
message (using telnet)?

If rabbits feet are so lucky, what happened to the rabbit?
Isn't Hotmail owned by M$ (has been for a while, actually)? So, it would

Ah, yes. Hotmail is owned by Mirco$oft. The last I heard microsoft tried
porting Hotmail to Windows NT and it kept crashing and crashing... That
was before Windows 2k.
So it would make logical sense but is it technically feasible to do so..

Is there an existing way to use logcheck (1.11)
with qmail, or do I need to hack at the logcheck script to get it to work
correctly?
Thanks.

I'm more interested in sslqmtp. I have more bandwidth than CPU, so if
I'm going to spend lots of CPU sending mail I'd like it to be for
pissing off The Man (tm). ;-) Of course, encryption often compresses,
so...

Please consider to use AMaViS-Perl instead.

In a perfect world, QMTP would require that a qmtpd accept
VERP-formatted envelope senders. And qmail would collate remote
deliveries by hostname, and dump all copies of a piece of email to all
the recipients at once. I have customers for whom that would be an
incredibly good win.
Of course, in a perfect world, email would never bounce, so what am I
talking about??

Hi again, Sorry for e-mailing this one more time, but I feel like this got
lost between the other more interesting topics. I hope there is somebody
who could take a look at this and help me out. I can not imagine that this
is such a unusual case. I am trying settings here and there, changing this
and that, but I can not figure this out. I would rather know the only
setting I need to set or remove. Thanks. Peter
I have 2 linux servers web and e-mail. Both servers are on the same network
in the same domain.
Users on the Web server fill out a HTML form and this form using CGI is
being send (using postfix) out to the e-mail server (qmail) with one
virtual domain - popboxes.
It all seems to work just fine as long as the user is from other place than
the local domain name.
I feel that something is not setup correct with local to local mail.
Logs do not show anything special as far as I can tell. It all seems to be
heading the right direction, but they never arrive at the destination at
the qmail server.
(if someone would tell me in which log and what to look for??? TX)
All other mail is getting to the e-mail server no problem. All the forms
filled out by locations other than the subnet arrive on the e-mail server.
As you can see I have a hard time sending test e-mails since I never
receive them, yet it works from other domains??? Any ideas???
Please comment on any setting or suggest settings that are missing. I would
really appreciated.
Thank you for all your help. Peter D.
