A question about the scripts:
- If I add a call to these scripts only in user's .qmail files then only these
specific users's attachments will be scanned, yes?
Regards,
Peter
I am using vmailmgr-based virtual domains on my Qmail system.
I installed the checkattach-script to /var/qmail/bin and then created the file
/home/virtudaldomain1/users/user1/.qmail and put the following line there:
--snip--
|/var/qmail/bin/checkattach
--snip--
After that I sent a message with an .EXE attachment to that virtualuser and
nothing happened: the mail went through normally and no notifications in
/var/log/messagelog.
What might I be doing worn here, or can on use .qmail files with
virtual-domains at all?
Regards,
Peter

I don't believe that is correct. Try naming the file:
/home/virtudaldomain1/.qmail-user1
Making the contents:
|/var/qmail/bin/checkattach
./users/user1/
(Assuming that checkattach only checks the e-mail and doesn't attempt
delivery...)

... which means,
(1.) either .qmail was not executed (you can verify)
(2.) a EXE is not in the checktype line
(3.) you are missing some UNIX commands (like gawk) and/or some C-routines.
Verification for (3.):
cat some_file | /var/qmail/bin/checkattach
If some routines are missing, it will tell.

complicated.

Okay, I've now verified that /home/virtualdomain1/.qmail-user1 is the correct
file.

Um, not that easy. /var/qmail/bin is a symlink to /usr/bin. So much for that
theory?

When I opened the scripts they had the windows ^m character at the end of
each line. I was getting the same error until I removed them.

Is checkattach a shell script. If yes check the first line in the script and
see if the executable is present or not
e.g. if you have a perl script the first line would be
#!/usr/bin/perl
and if /usr/bin/perl is missing and you run your script u will get an error
saying that the script is missing rather than the message /usr/bin/perl is
missing.

When I open the file in pico or vim, I don't see those characters.
With what program do I find and remove the characters?

"fromdos", if you have it, is easy. Otherwise, you can use "tr" with
octal escapes or similar.

It is a /bin/sh script. And, yes, I have it installed.

Solaris has a handy utility called "dos2unix" that strips ^M characters out of text
files. Perhaps your OS has a similar utility?

I've tried the checkattach script out by attempting to send an EXE file and
the email and attachment went though as if the checkattach file was not even
called. I get not output from the file or the mail log file to give me any
hints.
When I ran
cat FILENAME | /var/qmail/bin/checkattach
The prompt returns w/o errors, so I'd have to assume it is working
properly. Any ideas? I'd give more intormation, but not quite sure what
you'd need. Thank you very much!

Vim. Try entering ":set ff=unix", and then press shift+Z twice.

I've installed the scripts and they work beautifully!!! I do
have one question though, how would I have the script bounce an extra copy
of the rejected email to me??? (my account doesn't have the invocation of
the check* files)
So if a 'bad' email were to come through, it would reject it, but send a
copy to me... (or at least send me a notification, so I don't have to scan
the logs the next day) ~ Thanks so much!!!

That's a recode wrapper usually. And do fix your quoting.

Hi everybody,
sorry for the inconvenience with the scripts.
I have already encountered the same problems (^M).
Therefore, on my man qmail web page, I included a section "Download
problems" which gives some hints.
This is an old http browser/server problem.
One may use Dan's http@ client:
./http@ www.fehcom.de qmail/checkfile > /usr/local/bin/checkfile
and delete the last line (^Z).
cheers.
eh.

It's a pretty common problem when working in a mixed environment. Seems
most everyone had an available tool. If not its a good one to add to the
toolbox.

I tried that, and follow the instruction,tried to send an email with "sex"
subject to an account but didn't find any bounce message.
I've add the 3 files path in the related .qmail file as written in
installation instruction.
What could be wrong?
Thanks

Have you tried an "fuser 25/tcp"??? What process takes care of this port?
If it is qmail-smtpd, then what do the logs say? If you start qmail-smtpd
by hand on the cmdline, does the correct prompt appear?

Yes I did create the link in the service directory.
Those who are monitoring this question, someone suggested that the script
should be as follows:

.... and create a ".../qmail-pop3/log" folder and include a
multilog logging script in there.
If the second script is correct, can someone explain the difference??

Your first try, below, looks pretty good. But... did you remember to
ln -s /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-pop3 /service/
You have to make a link in the /service directory for svscan to notice
it.

Ah, but is it done with those messages yet? qmail won't actually send the
bounce message until it has met with either success, permananent failure,
or control/queuelifetime's worth of deferrals for each and every recipient
of the message. It does this because it can then send a single bounce message
to the sender, and outline the delivery status and reason for each failed
recipient.
Probably those messages have remote recipients for which qmail has not yet
been able to establish an SMTP connection yet.

Read the documentation for multilog. Where the logs end up is completely
dependent on how you configured it.

Your queue appears to be corrupted. Did you fiddle with the queue by hand?
You'll need to repair it -- you can do this by hand if you know the queue
structure well enough, or use some of the helpful utilities linked to from
www.qmail.org. Be sure to read the documentation for those utilities before
trying to use them, or you could cause additional problems.

Interesting; I have never agreed with refusing email based on the DNS
of the HELO or envelope sender, but didn't realize that (at least for HELO)
it was actually verboten.
In real life, of course, there are thousands of domains which do this every
day.

I actually had fights (over e-mail, luckily) with someone using a
VAX/VMS mailer with lots of anality knobs. He had several complaints
about my qmail boxes. I convinced him to turn off all knobs that rang
alarms whenever one of my boxes mailed him.
The HELO was indeed one of these.

Read that error message again. Read the qmail documentation. Read the
man page for qmail-control, find out which program uses the "locals"
and "virtualdomains" control files, and read the manual pages and other
documentation for those programs.
In other words, this is a FAQ, and has been answered on this mailing list
hundreds of times.

Hello list! Just joined the list, and am looking to clear something up
here. Let me start by saying that I am not a Qmail admin, and am not
familiar with the internals of Qmail, so be gentle if my question seems
malformed.
After scouring the list archives for some time today I haven't found quite
the answer I need. I'm having a problem similar to one described by the
following thread:
http://www.ornl.gov/its/archives/mailing-lists/qmail/2000/05/msg01580.html
I'm in communications with a fairly well established/recognized software
company who's product generates email whose lines end in bare linefeeds.
Clearly, from my reading in the archives, there is some argument as to
whether or not this actually violates RFC822 or not, but I need to either
convince the software company to change it's product, or convince my ISP to
make some sort of change to their Qmail implementation. Till then, I am not
able to send outgoing mail through my ISP's mailserver (which is a pretty
significant problem for me).
I'm still in discussions/arguments with the software company, who apparently
uses Netscape's Messaging library to support their SMTP operations, to
change their product so that it does not generate bare LFs. I'm not sure
what progress I'm going to make with that, but any advice would be
appreciated.
On the other hand, I am going to take a stab at convincing my ISP to change
their Qmail implementation so that it will accept bare LFs and convert them
into CRLFs. I have found reference to a solution in the list archives (link
below), but unfortunately, being completely unfamiliar with Qmail's
internals, I am not going to be able to clearly communicate the solution to
the engineers at my ISP based on this posting.
What I am searching for is something similar to a Knowledge Base or FAQ
article which would either assist me in understanding the changes which
should be made, or that I could simply point the engineers at my ISP to.
Without that, I am not sure that I will be able to effectively communicate
the problem/solution.
Bare LF workaround:
http://www.ornl.gov/its/archives/mailing-lists/qmail/1997/07/msg00957.html
I would appreciate any suggestions on/offlist.
Thanks!

Something like fixcrio may do the trick for them; however, it's not good
practice to mangle customers' mail for them, as you can corrupt otherwise
properly formatted messages.
You have other options open which do not involve having the ISP change
anything. You could set up a simple qmail relay on your internal network;
have it pipe everything through fixcrio (with Dan's @fixme/fixup trick
and tcpserver), and use smtproutes to send all mail from there to your
ISP's smarthost. Then have your special (broken) software send its mail
to that machine instead of directly to your ISP's smarthost.
You could probably even do something simpler: use tcpserver, fixcrio,
tcpclient, and some shell magic to run this mail through fixcrio on the
fly, communicating directly with your ISP's smarthost from the broken
application. I haven't looked at this enough to know quite how to set it
up.

This link might help:
http://cr.yp.to/docs/smtplf.html
But it helps your ISP's case, not yours. It basically says "qmail does it
right, fix your broken client. Here's some broken clients, and how to fix
them...".

Ick!! Anyway, this is an FAQ. Checkout the fixcrio program,
provided as part of Dan's ucspi package. This is a wrapper to
go in front of qmail-smtpd that will change any bare LFs
encountered to CRLF, which should workaround your
problem.
Search on 'fixcrio' in the archive for more details.
cheers,
Andrew.
Could this be applied to a single user on a machine. Our web reporting
software sends the wrong linefeeds, but we have cgi scripts that work
correctly?

Yes -- use tcpserver to start either qmail-smtpd or the straight-through-
fixcrio-to-ISP-smarthost setup. Then use tcpserver's conditional setting
of environment variables based on IP address. If you set up the simple
qmail relay, it would be something like:
192.168.11.54:allow,RELAYCLIENT="@fixme"
192.168.:allow,RELAYCLIENT=""
:deny
This would allow all your internal 192.168.x.x nets to relay through this
machine if necessary, and only the one at 192.168.11.54 would go through
the @fixme/fixup step which pushes the messages through fixcrio. See
Dan's documentation for details on how to configure @fixme/fixup (it's in
his FAQ if I remember correctly).
There's a ton of other ways to do this as well. Of course, the "correct"
solution is to fix the broken web reporting software. If you can't touch
that, you may be able to work around it at the source -- how does it send
mail? Through SMTP, or by calling /usr/lib/sendmail? If the latter,
you could just put a wrapper around it.

Hi,
I have two mail in diferents os, one is NT Mdaemon, and another is Qmail
with vpopmail and sqwebmail. I change the virtualhosts in my primary dns
server like this
; dominio virtual manejado por plauto (virtual.com.py)
www IN CNAME plauto.itacom.com.py.
correo IN CNAME correo.ita.com.py.
correo IN A 207.124.229.38
ita.com.py. IN MX 10 correo.ita.com.py.
; correo manejado por pascal
pascal IN CNAME pascal.ita.com.py.
pascal IN A 207.124.229.47
ita.com.py. IN MX 20 pascal.ita.com.py.
the first, correo,ita.com.py work with Nt, and the sencod Work with my love
qmail. The logical say, when ita recive a mail for rcpt pepito and pepito no
exist in correo.ita, the next step is lookin for in pascal.ita (of course
is pepito exists in pascal.ita.com.py. But, correo.ita resolve and say No
exist final point and never ask to pascal.
I change the priority to pascal 10 and correo 20, and the same stuff.
What can I do for work in this way, ask in correo.ita.com.py , if exist
resolve. If no exist ask in pascal.ita.com.py and if exist works.
Thanks
Alexa

It will be the same as long as you MTA (Mail Transport Agent like Qmail,
Sendmail)
does look for $HOME/.forward. POP and IMAP guys and MDA (Mail Delivery
Agents)
such as Mail(1), pine(1), elm(1), mailx(1), Eudora, Outlook Express
come later....

I got it finally working vmailmgr. Here's what I did:
Opened the script in pico, copied the contents and saved it to another text
file. I suppose it removed the ^M characters (how did they end up there, were
they there orignally or did Netscape just add them, dunno).
Then added these lines (thanks to Peter Green) to my
/home/virtualdomain1/.qmail-user1 file:
--snip--
|/var/qmail/bin/checkattach
./users/user1/
--snip--
Thanks for all who offered their help.
Peter
Hrmm, i wonder how you would go about adding scanning ability to every
"virtual" user with vmailmgr? Say, every virtual account under the user
'usermail' for example.

Add the ``checkattach'' call on the line before the vdeliver call in
usermail's .qmail-default file?
i.e., make it read:
|/path/to/checkattach
|/usr/bin/vdeliver
in ~usermail/.qmail-default.

Variable substitution is done by the shell when it reads the command.
The $PATH in your example will be expanded when you type it, not after
envdir executes.
Try something like (untested)
echo $PATH && /var/tcp/envdir sh -c '/var/tcp/env echo $PATH'

This is a general Unix question -- $PATH is being expanded by your shell long
before it gets to envdir/env/echo. See the manual for your shell for details;
this is not appropriate for the qmail mailing list.

Both $PATH's in above line are evaluated the moment you press enter.
Try something like 'sh -c echo $PATH' (*including* the quotes)
instead.

Hello,
I'm seeing an increase of

error messages recently (which I attribute to the fact that some new
client tries to send quite a lot messages to server located in Asia,
primarily HK which haven't got an exactly fast latency to our Swiss
mail servers and sometimes the packet loss is pretty high).
I surely know our own connection isn't the problem and obviously can't

even
with such problematical servers? Is there, for example, an option to
increase the TCP timeout qmail uses when it connects to other servers?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have had the same problem connecting to some servers. The problem with
them is that they have turned off 8bit and, to the best of my reading, Qmail
will only send 8bit. I don't know if this is the cause of your problem but
it might be worth looking into.

Hi people,
I'd like to know if someone could help me with this doubt.
I make a perl script called deliverator.
This script uses safecat program to delivery the messages
in the Maildir.
My actual script split the account and domain of the RECIPIENT
and check where it must delivery the message. If case it doesn't
find the account or domain my script return a message to the SENDER
notifying that the email wasn't found.
I would like to implement in this script, the possibitity of avoiding
the local
users in my network to send anonymous messages to the others.
But I need to know once more information like RECIPIENT or SENDER.
I need to know What the IP address of the SENDER is. Because this way
I can check if he belongs in my network and avoiding he to send
anonymous
messages.
To do this I'd match the SENDER and IP ADDRESS and if they are right
I would permit if they wouldn't match I' deny.
Of course that remote e-mail I will permit to send any e-mail. My email
server is protected against relay.
If someone can give me this information about how I can get to catch
IP address of the SENDER I would thank.

How is this different than the standard qmail delivery method with a
qmail-start invocation specifying "./Maildir/" as the default delivery
target?

qmail helpfully sets various environment variables for programs run from
.qmail files -- see the manual page for qmail-command for details.

Dear Charles,
The difference than the standart is that I have many different domains in my
server.
And I check them through the SQL database (Postgres). I organize different
directories for
each domain in the /home directory.
For example, if I have this domains in my system: example.com and sample.com
I will have two directories in /home directory like this: /home/example.com/ and
/home/sample.com/ and into these directories there will be the account of my users.
When the script gets a email, it splits
From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
To:
account: example
domain: example.com
The script uses this information to delivery in the right directory, depending on
the domain.
I'd like to know once more information. About the IP ADDRESS of SENDER.
I need to know what enviroment variable is responsible to keep the IP ADDRESS of
SENDER.

$TCPREMOTEIP.
You should look into tcpservers -x option and
<URL:http://cr.yp.to/ucspi-tcp/tcprules.html>
If I understand you correctly, it will do what you want.

This sounds exactly like what vmailmgr does. It also sounds very similar to
what vpopmail does. vmailmgr doesn't need an external database, either.

vmailmgr does this.

Well, at delivery time, the sender's domain is set in an environment variable,
but not the IP address. The IP address is of course available in the
Received: line that qmail adds when it accepts the message. Your script
could simply look at the last (i.e. topmost) Received: line which begins
with the exact string "Received: from".

Hi,
I will used ezmlm for big announcement list

how many messages are sent after 2 hours of the sending,
how many messages bounces

I admin a 10.000-user announcement list (and growing) since yesterday.
The first 10.000 recipients get their mail in just over 3 minutes.

One thing you may want to check out is the qmail-mrtg project, so you
can get a graphical output of your qmail traffic, or use qmailanalog to
process your log files into your own readable format.

use splogger (/var/qmail/bin)
in this way for example:
echo "connect from $TCPREMOTEHOST ($TCPREMOTEIP)" |
/var/qmail/bin/splogger qmail
exec /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd

hi all-
i am _definitely_ not trying to ignite any type of war with this mail.
here's the question:
i'd like to start using qmail-scanner w/ kaspersky's AVP to scan all
gatewayed mail. my fears are this:
1. every piece of mail invokes perl.
2. the linux machine taht we use as a mail gateway currently has 128meg ram.
3. the qmail-scanner page on sourceforge (qmail-scanner.sourceforge.net)
mentions that each simultaneous SMTP session that involves qmail-scanner
can occupy about 5-6mb of memory, and that incoming mail limits should be
adjusted accordingly. i'd rather never hit swap, so under my current
amount of ram, i'd have to severely limit the number of incoming connections.
given thses concerns, i'd like to just ditch the current machine and get
something with a couple of cpus and a decent amount of ram to handle the
additional overhead of qmail-scanner/virus scan prog.
does anyone have any experience with this type of setup? i'd much rather
stick with freebsd, but have head that linux has better SMP support. does
this make any difference?
thanks-
dan

FreeBSD SMP is superior to Linux SMP with *one* exception:
multithreading.
I'd say stick with freebsd, ext2fs can't deliver high-performance
*and* reliable queueing at the same time. FFS can.
I have 3 freebsd boxes running qmail now for 50.000 popboxes, and they
fly.

Note that under most modern Unixen, including Linux, all the memory that
Perl occupies will be shared between the concurrently running copies. Only
any memory allocated for data will be nonshared. Therefore, running
100 simultaneous connections through a setup like this will NOT take
100 times the physical amount of memory.

On the ezmlm list somebody asked if he needed the bigtodo patch if he
is to set up 15 lists with 50K subscribers each, and the lists get
exactly one message/day. I would have thought, no since my P120 box
handles 180K messages a day with no noticable problem. But Russ said
15x50K is hard on a normal qmail queue.

I am not trying to select; just asking for info.
In user friendliness (extension addresses [hence ezmlm support],
syntaxless small config files), nothing beats qmail, so postfix is not
a candidate for me. But it seemed that some people out there expressed
concerns about qmail's scalability, and, not being in the loop, I
wanted to know if their concerns are justified.

Aehm ... if you use ezmlm you get 15 messages (i.e. files) not 15x50K messages.
So the big-todo patch ist of no relevance here.
However I would recommend using the big-concurrency patch and set
concurrencyremote to 500 or more.
I have a Pentium III (551.25-MHz 686-class CPU) 256 MB RAM on a RAID 5
dedicated machine for a 95000 users newsletter list. concurrencyremote
set to 250. It delivers the 95000 messages in about 1 hour.

You are confused. One message to an ezmlm list, no matter how many
subscribers, is one message in the queue. big-todo has nothing to do
with this.
big-concurrency can help, tho :)

I have a dual PIII (850 I think) with 1GB of RAM and a single 9GB SCSI
disk for queue. It delivers a lunchtime newsletter to 10.000
recipients in 3 minutes 6 seconds (the list is about 11.000
subscribers, but some of 'm have slow smtp servers). About 80 of the
recipients are local, the rest is out on the wide internet.
concurrencyremote is 256, btw. We're only doing this list since
yesterday so I never needed any remote concurrency.
queue performance is very irrelevant for ezmlm performance.
Greetz, Peter.
I am building a server to house several very high volume mailing lists
(2-4M users each) and wanted to know which patches were recommended for
use with ezmlm and ezmlm-idx, as well as qmail itself.
I have read about the big-concurrency patch and that seems relevant, but
I'm not sure about the others.
Can someone give me a heads up? Thank you.

Few. Join us :)
http://www.almqvist.net/johan/qmail/ for all the patches you need.
Greetz, Peter.
For the last three days I have posted several messages asking "How to start
pop3?". I have received numerous responses. From these responses, I conclude
that many people have faced the same problem and each individual has come up
with one solution or another. I also has found a solution although I still
have a problem or two.
Several people who responded had asked many different questions, therefore,
I am making this write in detail so anyone who wants to help will have their
initial questions answered (I hope).
First, some of you who may be reading this message for the first time, I
will explain the problem:
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
====================
My test bed consists of two servers (ns1.mydomain.com & ns2.mydomain.com). I
am using ns1.mydomain.com server for DNS inquiries only. On both server, in
addition to RH 6.2 LINUX, I have installed the following software:
ns1.mydomain.com
------------------------------
1. djbdns-1.05
2. daemontools-0.70
3. RH Patches (of course)
ns2.mydomain.com
------------------------------
1. djbdns-1.05
2. daemontools-0.70
3. RH Patches (of course)
4. Apache _1.3.12, mySQL-3.22.32, PHP-4.0.2, openssl-0.9.5a,
mod_ssl-2.6.6
I followed installation outline in
http://www.devshed.com/server_side/PHP/SoothinglySeamless/page1.html to
install these packages
5. checkpassword-0.90
6. ucspi-tcp-0.88
7. qmail-1.03 (dns error manually updated in dns.c file)
I followed installation instruction as outlined in "qmail-HOWTO"
http://www.flunder.net/qmail/qmail-howto.html
PROBLEM
=========
My initial problems were concerning adding pop3 script. I wanted to:
1. use SVSCAN to monitor (start) pop3 script from "/service"
directory (I understand it's DJB's favorite)
SOLUTION
=========
I duplicated the procedure of setting up "qmail-smtpd" as noted in
"qmail-HOWTO" and did the following:
1. Created a directory "/var/qmail/supervise/qmail-pop3"
2. Added a "run" file with the following script in it:
#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R 0 pop3
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup mail.mydomain.com \
/bin/checkpassword /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir 2>&1
3. Added a log folder "/var/qmail/supervise/qmail-pop3/log"
4. Added a "run" file with the following script in it:
#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/local/bin/setuidgid qmaill /usr/local/bin/multilog
t /var/log/qmail/qmail-pop3
4. Added the directories to "/service" as follows (same as
suggested in qmail-HOWTO):
ln -s /var/qmail/supervise/* /service/
SVSCAN starts everything fine....
NEW PROBLEM
=============
Please help me resolving the following new problems I have encountered:
A. Log message displayed on screen...
----------------------------------------------------------
Now when I reboot the system, just when the "login" is displayed,
the following message is displayed on the screen:
tcpserver: status: 0/40
Why is this message is being displayed in the screen and not being
logged (see item B below also)?
This message is being generated from
"/var/qmail/supervise/qmail-pop3/run" script. TRUST ME!
B. pop3 log folder has problem!!
--------------------------------------------------------
When I look into the logs for qmqil-pop3
"/var/qmail/supervise/qmail-pop3/log", I see three files in it:
(1) current (2) lock (3) state
CLUE: /qmail-pop3/current is EMPTY. When this file is empty
and it can't be opened with a single click that that may be the answer!!!!
Please verify.
Log folder for qmail-send & qmail-smtpd also have the same named
three files. However when I try to open "current" log file for qmail-pop3,
it does not open with a single click. I can open it using a text editor.
There is nothing in this "current" log file. THIS MIGHT EXPLAIN DISPLAY
PROBLEM AS I MENTIONED IN "A" ABOVE. I can open "current" log file for both
qmail-send & qmail-smtpd with a single click. They contain some log info.
Log folder for all three were created the same way as follows ( and
as outlined in qmail-HOWTO):
# mkdir /var/log/qmail
# mkdir /var/log/qmail/qmail-send
# mkdir /var/log/qmail/qmail-smtpd
# mkdir /var/log/qmail/qmail-pop3
chown qmaill /var/log/qmail
chown qmaill /var/log/qmail/*
When I check folders/log files, they all have the same ownership &
access permissions as follows:
Folders:
/var/log/qmail/qmail-send
/var/log/qmail/qmail-smtpd
/var/log/qmail/qmail-pop3
Owner: qmaill Group: root Access: 755
Log File:
/var/log/qmail/qmail-send/current
/var/log/qmail/qmail-smtpd/current
/var/log/qmail/qmail-pop3/current
Owner: qmaill Group: nofiles Access: 644
Can some one explain why I can't open "current" log file for
qmail-pop3 when I can open the same for qmail-send & qmail-smtpd.
B. User/PW Invalid!!
--------------------------------------------------------
When Try to setup a connection to retrieve mail, I get an error saying that
"the connection is refused because user or password are invalid".
I can verify:
(a) user name and password are correct ( I can log into the
LINUX system with same UID/PW)
(b) qmail "add user" command (below) is executed properly:
cat /etc/passwd | /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pw2u >
/var/qmail/users/assign
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-newu
(c) user Maildir is setup properly ($home/user/Maildir) - I
can send mail to user and veryfy that is sitting in its Maildir
(d) I am connecting to the right server
(e) pop-3 is commented out in "/etc/inetd.conf"
So why I still continue to get error message that User or password is
invalid when I try to connect to receive mail??? Log files does not show
anything unless I am looking into wrong log files??
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------
Sorry for such a detailed explanation. I hope some of you, specially the
author of "qmail-HOWTO" can address these problems.

For the last several months, I am itching to ask this question. I have a
freshly installed RH 6.2 on a server. I am planning to install qmail. Are
there any files in "sendmail" which are used by "qmail"? Can I just go ahead
and remove "sendmail" from the server before starting installation of
"qmail"? I have read both "Life with Qmail" and "qmail-HOWTO" and both
remove "sendmail" after installing "qmail".

A lot of the documentation assumes that you are installing qmail on a mail
server that's currently in use. Since you would obviously want to keep
downtime to a minimum, the recommendation is to install qmail and make sure
it's working properly before you begin trashing sendmail.
Since you have a fresh system that nobody is using yet, it won't matter when
you yank out sendmail, so go ahead and tear it out before hand if that is
your preference.
---Kris Kelley
qmail uses no part of sendmail.
you can install qmail (as I have) on a system that has never had sendmale
on it at all.
You can easily configure your RedHat CD not to install sendmale at all, by
editing the "comps" file.

I work for a local isp and recently been noticing several users having trouble
sending to a certain set of servers.
What are the most common cause of deferreds?
What has been ruled out:
1) Net connection
2) Blocked (orbs, etc)
3) not in rcpt/locals
Any help is appreciated, and if possible cc me or reply directly to me, as the
list gets quite a bit of traffic.

Lets see if I can explain this well.
We currently have a piece of software that sends out mail. This piece of
software is located on machines all around the US. These machines are used
by our clients, who can send out mail on behalf of a user; [EMAIL PROTECTED]
They connect to our exchange (BLAH) server, which is an open relay (yes, I
explained why NOT to do this years ago) so that the machines out on the net
CAN relay [EMAIL PROTECTED] They also never bothered to add security to those
machines. The problem is, we need to lock down our open relay (people found
us and are using us for relaying, thus getting us blocked... big surprise..)
AND allow these machines to relay selectively without modifying the machines
themselves. There are WAY to many (and variable) ips to manually add the ips
of each machine.
I am hoping to set up a Qmail (my favorite) smtp gateway (our mail is
already routing out one, exchange's sucks) that can somehow allow relaying
based on "FROM" (Aka from [EMAIL PROTECTED]) or allow the relay based on a
keyword in the message. Or perhaps someone has a better idea?
Many many thanks!

This patch will allow you to relay based on envelope sender address:
http://www.palomine.net/qmail/relaymailfrom.html. You may consider combining
this with tarpitting: http://www.palomine.net/qmail/tarpit.html. Both patches
are combined here: http://www.palomine.net/qmail/tarpit+relaymailfrom.patch.
Does your software send something special when it says HELO during the SMTP
conversation? It should be too hard to patch qmail-smtpd to look for this and
allow relaying only if it sees it.

Well, I am not trying to say I am an expert .. but
at least I know how to get this working..

You are not sending (via qmail-inject). You are relaying (sending via
smtp to your own server, which will then send to the destination
server). You have sensibly chosen to block relaying in general; since
you apparently need it from some local systems, you must now implement
selective relaying, which is explained extensively in the FAQ and Life
With Qmail.

Hi,
First timer on this list...apology if got any mistake
I've got 800+ error 554 form hotmail out of 1000+ email sent to valid hotmail.com

Can anyone explain what's the problem - Hotmail or qmail or network problem?
I've read an article by Arshad Mahmood listed in the linu-net mailing list

Why don't you post a copy of one of the errors?

Greetings,
I setup qmail, and it seems to be running and I can send empty email's. I
ran all the tests for deliver, but when I run a basic script that sends out
an email and I put the path of the email down; it doesn't seem to work at
all.
The paths I have used are:
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject
/usr/sbin/sendmail
/usr/lib/sendmail
I have no idea what the issue could be, especially since everything says it
running fine.
Thank you for any help in advance, I do greatly appreciate it!

Hi,
I've come across the above patch that is suppose make qmail able to handle more
outgoing emails than the default setting.
1. Where to get it ?
2. How to install it ?

Halt qmail. Run patch on the patchfile (probably 'patch -p0 <
big-todo.103.patch' from within your qmail-1.03 source directory) and then
'make && make setup check' to recompile.

It's a text file, rite. But the 1st few lines looks like a readme. why ?
Can i just save the file as 'big-todo.103.patch' in my qmail server and run the patch.

Yes. Patch is pretty smart about that sort of thing. :)

I've seen a couple of patches on qmail.org relating to this, but they
either don't list the version they relate to, or are described as
experimental/unstable.
I'd appreciate some recommendations from anyone who's tried some of these
patches, including some pointers on which ones work with qmail 1.03, and
which ones I should stay away from.
