However, it wasn't the format of the string checkpassword (and friends) expects; it's the IO. For example, let's say I wanted to do this in bash2. I might do, simply: #!/bin/bash2 # check vmailmgr first; save the environment # /tmp/scr just executes /usr/bin/id ENVIRON = $(/usr/bin/checkvpw /tmp/scr Maildir/) rc=$? if [ $rc -ne 0 ]; then # failed; try vpopmail ENVIRON = $(/usr/local/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /tmp/scr Maildir/) rc=$? if [ $rc -ne 0 ]; then # failed all echo "-ERR Authorization failed" exit $rc else export $ENVIRON exec qmail-pop3d "$@" fi else export $ENVIRON exec qmail-pop3d "$MAILDIR" fi It mostly works, since all child processes inherit FD 3 properly. However, if the first method fails, it cannot try the second method, since FD 3 has already hit EOF; how can I rewind this from bash? Also, if it succeeds, the exec line simply does not work; the error is always ``-ERR this user has no $HOME/Maildir''. I have double-checked the environment with ``env>>/tmp/debug'' after the export call, and home get set properly. This is simply out of my league, I think. Any additional thoughts before I throw in the towel? Would this be useful for other situations?

I have double-checked the environment with > ``env>>/tmp/debug'' after the export call, and home get set properly. [snip] You can rewind by saving FD3 to an ordinary file. Try this example: #! /bin/sh exec 0<&3 cat>/tmp/pwd exec 3</tmp/pwd checkpassword qmail-pop3d Maildir exec 3</tmp/pwd checkpassword qmail-pop3d Maildir I don't know if you mind the file /tmp/pwd or if it is possible to get rid of it at all but pop is insecure anyway -- don't forget to create a unique file instead (and to remove it after the session). I had the same problem with $HOME/Maildir when I started qmail-pop3d by itself... This example isn't all good since qmail-pop3d terminates directly :) Jörgen
I am in the process of setting up qmail on a Redhat 6.2 Box 2.2.14-5.0 kernel. The problem is that I am unable to connect to the SMTP server even via the loopback address. When I telnet to port 25 I get connected but get a dead prompt. I am able to inject mail for qmail to process and this works without any problems at all for local addresses and external addresses. I am able to retrieve mail via pop3 with no trouble, I just cant send it the SMTP server. I have enclosed below the various startup and config files used for this system. Any ideas are gratefully recieved.

Hello All, I've installed virtual domains on qmail, so that all incoming mail for domain example.com is getting in mailbox mailb. But qmail adds a mailbox name in to Delivered to line that is not should be there, for example: mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] whill be delivered whith line [EMAIL PROTECTED] Is it possible to configure that all mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] whill be with line [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the Delivered to line not with [EMAIL PROTECTED] ? -- Best regards, Eduard mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Not that I like this behaviour: the vpopmail package does that. But it's better to leave it untouched. Like Chris wrote it's ther to prevent mail loops. Regards, Frank

Not strictly speaking; qmail-send does that. virtualdomains List of virtual users or domains, one per line. A virtual user has the form user@domain:prepend, with out any extra spaces.

We need to set up something special for a domain and to do so, we need to capture all of the headers, including the "Return-Path:". If we pipe the messages to a script in the ".qmail-default", qmail-local strips off that and other headers we may need. Is there any way to over-ride this behavior or otherwise force qmail-local to provide those headers to the pipe?

If you can alter the program you pipe to, just grab the enviropment variable RPLINE for the return-path in the program you pipe to - it is set by qmail-local in the delivery time. The same is with the delivered to header, it's in DTLINE. Put | /usr/bin/env > /tmp/enviropment_dump in .qmail to check out all the enviropment variables set by qmail-local
hi all- i'm using fastforward in /var/qmail/aliases/.qmail-default like so: | /var/qmail/bin/fastforward -d /etc/aliases.cdb i'd like to control access to certain email aliases; i.e. only certaing users should be able to send emails to certain site-wide aliases. simple 'from' checking is probably enough, although it would be nice to have something better. the only option i can think of is writing some type of wrapper to stick in .qmail-default that sits before fastforward. has someone seen a better way to do this? thanks- dan ________________ Dan Kelley www.otec.com 212-840-8600 ________________

OK, that's cool...but now I have (presumably) one last question. I've got my script printing From: $usermail to /usr/bin/sendmail, and it's working well enough both to trap the address the user enters and put it into the From: field. My question is, what field to I need to put $usermail into so that I can send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and fool ezmlm? Alex __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Do a quick & dirty parse of the address, splitting it at the _last_ occurrence of "@", so you get userlocal and userdomain parts. Then just send a (blank) mail to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This works well for us -- we use it for web-based initiation of subscription/unsubscription requests to ezmlm lists.

This seems like it would be a common question, but I haven't found a clear answer. I would like to merge the stability and speed of Maildirs with the administrative convenience of VSM (nice, clean, all-in-one directory tree). I've tried starting qmail's rc with something like env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:$PATH" \ qmail-start /var/spool/mail/$USER/ splogger qmail after doing a maildirmake on /var/spool/mail/$USER, but I get the dreaded Unable_to_chdir_to_maildir error. I've only set up qmail with regular vsm support before.... Could someone point me in the right direction or tell me why I wouldn't want to set this up this way? thanks -drew

I use safecat and a small tool that calculates hashed /var/spool/mail names for this. This should work for you: (untested!): env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:$PATH" \ qmail-start '|maildir /var/spool/mail/$USER/' splogger qmail where 'maildir' is the maildir tool in the safecat package.

Hi List! We have been using the qmail-scanner patch for a few weeks and we are very happy with it. Currently our system only uses one AV scanner the sophos product, and I want to use a second AV scanner in parrallel. The second scanner I want to use is the Trend Micro scanner. The "qmail-scanner-queue.pl" file has a the following line: @scanner_array=("sweep_scanner"); This is where it calls another function which actually calls the scanner. Does anybody know how to edit this so that two scanners are used? Is it: @scanner_array=("sweep_scanner & iscan_scanner"); or @scanner_array=("sweep_scanner" & "iscan_scanner"); Etc... I can get them to scan independently...but cant get them to scan together!

This still depends on how the @scanner_array is used to determine the name of the scanner. If all it is looking for is a list of names of scanners, then you are correct Charles.

Hey Jason We are looking at running a second virus scanner with our Q-S soon as well. The only thing is that we have MAJORLY modified Q-S to work in our environment (changed the messages that go out to people, depending on the extensions of the files and who specifically is sending the e-mail). We can't really just `reinstall' Q-S since it would require hours of work to make it work again the way we want it to. Are you able to quickly outline the variables and commands that change? I guess I could read the configure script, but if you could tell us that would be great! TIA -- "I'm not dumb. I just have a command of throughly useless information." - Calvin, of Calvin and Hobbes
Hi Brett, I suppose I can answer most of your questions... The qmail-scanner tar file contains a few files with the prefix "sub-" these contain stuff you need....I used the one "sub-iscan.pl" for the Trend micro scanner, but you have to choose the one that suits you and your AV scanner. Apend this code to the end of your "qmail-scanner-queue.pl" file. I made a few changes to this code....I added the following lines: $ENV{'SAV_IDE'} = ''; delete $ENV{'SAV_IDE'} if ($ENV{'SAV_IDE'} eq ""); and I also edited the following line: $DD=`$iscan_binary -za -a -u -nl $iscan_verbose $scandir/$file_id $extra_file 2>&1`; I have listed the fill addition at the end of this email [1]. Then in the "qmail-scanner-queue.pl" file edit some of the variables....such as the path to the scanner [2] and also the scanner array variable[3]. Then run the "tail -f qmail-queue.log" command and debug till your heart is broken! As a newby I was very happy with the results!

Hi all, I'm dealing with a bit of an issue here. Forgive me if I don't use the proper verbiage, I'm just starting out. We have qmail installed, I gather that the set-up is pretty standard. We have specific domains and within those folders, there are sub-folders for each user's email address. Mine is: /home/vpopmail/domains/marketingtips.com/nick.papageorge/ We also have a great deal of aliases, which in turn point to our specific and personal mail directories. For example .qmail-nick has the following line in it: /home/vpopmail/domains/marketingtips.com/nick.papageorge/Maildir/ Again, forgive me if I'm giving redundant information. Anyway, my problem is that I need to do is set up an autoresponder that will do the following when an email is sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED]: - Respond with a message created by yours truly - Drop the email into my maildir - Allow me to check my email and see the message in my inbox. This seems simple enough, right? Well, I'm having massive problems actually getting it working. I've tried creating a .qmail-nick:papageorge file and placing the following line: | /usr/local/bin/autorespond 10000 5 |/home/vpopmail/domains/marketingtips.com/nick-vacation-message |/home/vpopmail/domains/marketingtips.com/nick.papageorge/ AND I've even tried the same with adding: &[EMAIL PROTECTED] I've also tried using the web interface to create an autoresponder, which creates a NICK.PAPAGEORGE/ directory and, guess what, it doesn't work.. I'm banging my head against a wall, and I need to get an autoresponder up and working for the owner of our company (see the importance and dire need to get this working?). Any help will be overwhelmingly appreciated. Nick Papageorge

But with qmail, if you create a .qmail file to deliver to a script, you have to remember to add another line for deliveyr to a Maildir or mbox if the script itself doesn't save the message for you. In this case, you might want the .qmail-nick:papageorge file to contain: | /usr/local/bin/autorespond 10000 5 /home/vpopmail/domains/marketingtips.com/nick-vacation-message /home/vpopmail/domains/marketingtips.com/nick.papageorge/ i.e., one line to deliver to the autoresponder program, and a separate line delivering into the appropriate Maildir.

To put it in the words of a very happy person. WOO HOOO!! You were partially right. What I had to do was keep: | /usr/local/bin/autorespond 10000 5 |/home/vpopmail/domains/marketingtips.com/nick-vacation-message |/home/vpopmail/domains/marketingtips.com/nick.papageorge/ as one entire line and then add: | /usr/local/bin/autorespond 10000 5 |/home/vpopmail/domains/marketingtips.com/nick-vacation-message |/home/vpopmail/domains/marketingtips.com/nick.papageorge/ /home/vpopmail/domains/marketingtips.com/nick.papageorge/Maildir/ Boom, that's all it took! <dances like a little schoolgirl> Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

Forgive me and my novice-ness but I have a fairly simple problem... I've got qmail set up and it's working okay for single messages sent locally with qmail-inject from a perl script. I need to set it up for a mailing list application but one in which only portions of the mailing list can be selected to receive mail based on details about specific list members. (I mention this so you realize why I don't just use ezmlm. Ezmlm does not allow you to selectively mail certain list members but rather implements an all or nothing approach as far as I can tell). So when I call qmail-inject I want to do so with a filename of people. It seems I need to set this QMAILMFTFILE environment variable in order to do this. I set it with 'setenv QMAILMFTFILE /../list.txt' and I can then see the new env var with 'printenv' but qmail-inject ignores it. Is qmail looking at a different set of environment variables and if so how do I alter those? Thanks in advance.

Possible ezmlm solution: create separate ezmlm lists for each topic/subject you will mail on, and subscribe users to multiple lists. This won't work if you want to mail to multiple topics (users might receive multiple identical messages) or you can't determine the topic divisions in advance. > So when I call qmail-inject I want to do so with a filename of people.

QMAILMFTFILE only controls whether qmail-inject sets the Mail-Followup-To: header in the outgoing message, nothing else. And even if it did what you want to do, the value "/../list.txt" isn't likely to be meaningful. What you can do instead is something like: xargs <list.txt qmail-inject -a < message.txt (I would have made this example clearer, but I don't want the "useless use of cat" award) Charles -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Charles Cazabon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> GPL'ed software available at: http://www.qcc.sk.ca/~charlesc/software/ Any opinions expressed are just that -- my opinions. -----------------------------------------------------------------------
Does anyone have a local and recent copy of tms (tagged message sender) written by Thomas Erskine? The link referenced on www.qmail.org (http://silverlock.dgim.crc.ca/~terskine/qmail/tms.html) is no longer working, and I've lost my copy. I've also been unable to reach Thomas at <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> as I've been able to in the past. Thanks.

I am setting up multiple Qmail installations on the same box. I am doing this because I am sending out a large number of emails that can't be sent out via a mailing list. By having multiple installs, I intend to lessen the I/O burden of just having 1 queue structure. My question is how to setup multiple qmail-smtpd processes all binding to port 25 using different IP addresses. I intend to setup multiple IPs to the same NIC using IP Aliasing. I think I will be modifying TCPSERVER, but not 100% sure.Thanks
Howdy. I've done this before: it's cake, but I'm not sure why you would want to do mutliple queues. As for modifying tcpserver, why not just run multiple copies and bind them to different addresses? -sc On Tue, Mar 20, 2001 at 05:19:05PM -0800, Brandon Yu wrote: > Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Mailing-List: contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]; run by ezmlm > Precedence: bulk > Delivered-To: mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] > From: Brandon Yu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "List - Qmail (E-mail)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Multiple QMAIL-SMTPD on same box? > Date: Tue, 20 Mar 2001 17:19:05 -0800 > X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) > > I am setting up multiple Qmail installations on the same box.

I just understand that qmail has a difficult time with so I/O when you have tons of email to send out (2million). Unfortunately, the emails are customized to each user. By having a separate qmail install on each disk, the idea is to spread the load around. Would you agree? I will look into binding tcpserver with different addresses.

Ahhh... light blinks on. If you're going to put the queues on multiple disks, then your assumption is very correct. How are you going to handle distributing the load to the queues? Round robin in the script that'll send the emails out? As for the multiple smtp sessions, here's a run file for 'ya that has worked for me in the past: #!/bin/sh QMAILDUID=`id -u qmaild` NOFILESGID=`id -g qmaild` IP=`cat /var/qmail/control/primary_incoming_smtp_ip` MAXSMTPD=`cat /var/qmail/control/concurrency_incoming` exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 2000000 \ /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -p -c "$MAXSMTPD" \ -u $QMAILDUID -g $NOFILESGID $IP smtp /usr/local/bin/rblsmtpd \ /usr/local/bin/rblsmtpd -rdialups.mail-abuse.org \ /usr/local/bin/rblsmtpd -rrelays.mail-abuse.org \ /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd 2>&1 It goes w/o saying that I recommend using the daemontools to monitor your smtpd services. -sc On Tue, Mar 20, 2001 at 05:43:08PM -0800, Brandon Yu wrote: > Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Mailing-List: contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]; run by ezmlm > Precedence: bulk > Delivered-To: mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] > From: Brandon Yu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: 'Sean Chittenden' <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Cc: "'[EMAIL PROTECTED]'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: RE: Multiple QMAIL-SMTPD on same box? > Date: Tue, 20 Mar 2001 17:43:08 -0800 > X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) > > I just understand that qmail has a difficult time with so I/O when you have > tons of email to send out (2million).

Hello, all. I have been trying to install qmail on a RedHat 6.2 box, but it doesn't quite work, and the documentation, FAQs and HOWTOs haven't cleared things up. I was using the qmail HOWTO to guide my installation. <http://www.flounder.net/qmail/qmail-howto.html> Everything went fine, no errors. I chose Maildir over mbox. Then I got to step 11. While starting /etc/rc.d/init.d/svscan (where I put the script) did start all the qmail processes there were still two problems: 1. echo to: username | /var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject did nothing. 2. there was nothing in /var/log/maillog (the mail log specified in /etc/syslog.conf) Then I stumbled across the fact that I needed .qmail files in the home directories of users that intended to get mail, so I added those. They are properly chowned and each contains only "./Maildir/". I also tried a suggestion that I found in the archives of this list: I added /var/qmail/bin to my path, and I executed 'qmail-start ./Maildir/ splogger qmail &'. Now #1 above works just fine, and username receives the mail in ~username/Maildir/new/. However, I still don't have any messages at all about qmail in maillog (startup, mail sent, nothing), or in the rest of /var/log/* for that matter. A couple of other things: *) LWQ, in step 2.8.5, mentions that I should use '/usr/local/sbin/qmail start' to start qmail. But I don't have anything named qmail in /usr/local/sbin/. Is this something one would use instead of services? *) I started qmail with qmail-start after shutting down svscan. (I tried to start svscan after that, but all I got was an error in maillog -- the only thing printed in that file.) Before, I could stop the bevy of qmail processes by typing '/etc/rc.d/init.d/svscan stop'. However, there is no qmail-stop. How do I stop the processes properly? And if I'm not going to be using svscan, how should I set up qmail to start at boot time? Just a script w/ 'qmail-start' et al in /etc/rc.d/init.d/ with a corresponding link in rc3.d? Thanks for any suggestions you can provide! -- Nick Kocharhook -- <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

If you follow LWQ steps you probably wouldn't have any problem. my "/var/qmail/rc" looks something like following: =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= #!/bin/sh exec env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:$PATH" \ qmail-start '|dot-forward .forward ./Maildir/' splogger qmail -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- You should have similar file and if you follow instructions in LWQ you should be able get it going. There is need to create a file "qmail" in /etc/rc.d/init.d/ directory which can start/stop qmail and related processes. Hope this helps regards shirish Nick Kocharhook wrote: > Hello, all.
