Hi again

I decided to go for the relay-ctrl idea suggested by Charles and James who
responded to my last message. However, I've got a number of issues:-

Instructions for installation suggest, sensibly, reading the man page for
relay-ctrl-age. the 'make install-root' seems to install the man pages but
'man' ignores them. So i 'cat'ted the man pages to extract what I needed to
know.

where references were made to configs being stored in directorys that don't
exist I created the directories (as root) and I've not changed the owner or
permissions.

I put the following in rc.local:

tcpserver -v -u 2850 -g 32750 0 smtp /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd \
2>&1 | /var/qmail/bin/splogger smtpd 3 &

commented out the reference to smtp in inetd.conf and sent a kill- HUP to
the process. Then ran the above from the command line as root. I can still
send and recieve mail (phew!).

I put

*/20 * * * * /usr/sbin/relay-ctrl-age

into my crontab... and here's my first problem. Cron is now outputting:-

/usr/bin/tcprules: No such file or directory

the tcprules is in fact in
/usr/local/bin
what's the best solution? symlink? what's calling this... can I edit a
variable somewhere to change this?

Also, I tried to symlink as suggested
/usr/lib/courier-imap/libexec/authlib/
to
  /usr/sbin/relay-ctrl-allow.

but there is no /usr/lib/courier-imap/libexec/authlib/ on my system. I am
using courier-imap but there appears to be no similar directory on my system
except
/usr/local/libexec/authlib
but nothing courier-imap specific.

All suggestions as to solutions gratefully recieved!

Thanks

gary

Bruce Guenter, the author of relay-ctrl, maintains his own mailing lists for
his software.  You may want to try on those lists in future for particular
problems you have with his software.

Okay.  You may need to change some of them; it depends.

You're missing the other argument you need:  

    -x /etc/tcpcontrol/smtp.cdb

This is what actually allows the relaying, by setting the RELAYCLIENT
variable for IP addresses which have authenticated via POP3 in the previous
fifteen minutes.

Sure.  That works well.

Without testing it, a short glance over the code reveals one quirk and
one change I'd like:

- You are using a predictable filename in /tmp without any security
  whatsover. This allows a malicious users to overwrite files that you
  own, perhaps gaining access to your account this way.
- It says 'this is the qmail-send program'. It is not. 'qmail-send' is
  not a fixed string in the QSBMF, so why not change it?

Greetz, Peter.

True - when I first wrote it I took the text from Qmails bounces.
Feel free to change it :)

Also, why not use the $SENDER variable that qmail provides? Not to mention
that the address mentioned in the bounce message won't match the original
recipient when using virtualdomains. That might be trickier to fix, though.
Qmail isn't handling virtual domains correctly, as far as I can tell.

I can't manually bounce a message from, say, mutt.

Probably you just didn't get your prompt back.  What happens if you press

I could be mistaken, but I thought qpopper only supported mbox files.  If
you want to do POP3 with Maildirs in user home directories, switch to
qmail-pop3d, included in the qmail source.  That's what it's designed for.

Dear all,

Does someone has any idea how to forward with qmail all the e-mail's received by one mailserver to another

mailserver ? Actually I want to forward only thouse users e-mails to another server which has no mailbox in the first server.

example:

We have server A and server B. Server A is MX for firstdomain.com and server B is MX fot seconddomain.com.

Server B has user called John Doe with e-mail address [EMAIL PROTECTED]

What I really like to achive is if someone send's email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] then server A checks if it has user Joe Doe

with e-mail address [EMAIL PROTECTED] and if it doesn't find any reference to that user it just forwards e-mail to

server B which accepts it . It can be easily achieved by modifing /etc/aliases/ files but I want to get rid of modifing /etc/aliases/ files.

Any idea ?

I hope example wasn't too hazy.

Thank you in advance,

VM Testing

In ~alias/.qmail-default on "one server":

|/var/qmail/bin/forward "$LOCAL"@another.server

No easy way.  djb's .qmail-default/serialmail trick is designed for the
opposite case.  The only way that comes to mind is to set up two separate
instances of qmail on the box, one handling mail to the internal domain,
one for everything else.  The second hands mail for the internal domain off
to the first instance, which has a high concurrencyremote.

Yeah, don't know what I was thinking. But I see another problem with
that command: it's feeding the list of recipients to xargs via stdin
and the message to qmail-inject, also via stdin. In my testing, xargs
is reading the message as stdin and calling qmail-inject with the
message contents on the command line. Oops.

Good thinking. I think you're right :)

Hi!

I'm looking for a way to divert messages that come from RBL listed hosts
on a system-wide basis... All messages from hosts that are in the RBL
should go to the spamtrap user for example...

Title: Auto-appending signatures for single domain

Hello,

I've looked through all the documentation I could find and the list's archive but can find no obvious mention of the following:

I run virtual domains and would like to add a typical 'we're not responsible for anything' disclaimer at the bottom of all emails coming FROM a particular domain.

E.g.: Say the domain is 'corporate.com'

Mail from [EMAIL PROTECTED] (local) to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (remote)-> add disclaimer

Mail from [EMAIL PROTECTED] to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ->don't add disclaimer

Mail from [EMAIL PROTECTED] (local) -> [EMAIL PROTECTED] (local or remote) -> do not add

I read somewhere that you had to patch qmail-remote but no instructions on how to do this. Any clues out there?

Eric

Hi all,

I'm having a bit of a problem. I am trying to deliver mail to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] I keep getting the message:
Sorry, no mailbox here by that name. (#5.1.1)


I am stumped on this one. There are approximately 20 domains on this box and
this is the only domain that causes problems.


The following email addresses were fine.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]


The following email addresses caused problems

[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Sorry, no mailbox here by that name. (#5.1.1)

[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Sorry, no mailbox here by that name. (#5.1.1)

Extracts from /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

Post the full output of qmail-showctl instead of snippets of what you think
might be relevant information.  Then we can help you.

You didn't actually include your question in the body of your message; bad
habit.

This is answered many times in the mailing list archives.  I suggest you
consult that before posting questions to the list.  It's clearly referenced
from www.qmail.org.

  does anyone know of a ticketing system, written in PHP for qmail?  I

Your best bet is to take a look in freshmeat and see what's there. Perl
isn't for everyone, so don't be so hard on yourself! As for your last
question, search the archives - I'm sure someone has already solved that
problem.

Funny, I searched for one the whole day too. I don't have a problem with
perl (in contrast I'd prefer perl over php...), but it still does not fit my
needs. So if anyone knows a ticketing system which can be used without
closing each and every ticket manually on a web interface and does not use
simple incremental ticket numbers but date-based (20010329-0002 foe example)
please drop me a short note - hopefully I'll rerad it before i start to code
(in perl).

Are there any authentication modules for Micro$oft SQL 7/2000 for qmail or courier ?
I really don't want to use M$ Exchange as IMAP/POP toaster :(

greetings:
i'm in the planning stages of moving a web-frontend/qmail/mysql setup 
from a single machine to a more distributed configuration with two 
load-balanced machines running apache and qmail and a mysql database 
server. the qmail queue is currently on an NFS mount (storage 
appliance), and that won't be changing. mysql is of course storing the 
authentication information. This whole setup is running on FreeBSD 
4.1-RELEASE. My questions are thus:
Are there any issues with moving the qmail configuration from one 
machine to another, aside from the concerns with name resolution/ip 
configuration?
Is it even possible for two qmail servers to share the same queues if 
said queues are on NFS?
Is there anything else i should be aware of when moving qmail from one 
machine to two separate load-balanced servers?

So far so good.

Did you say this is alread up and running?  qmail requires the queue to be on
a local filesystem; most MTAs do if I understand properly.  NFS breaks all the
normal filesystem guarantees that qmail requires to be able to deliver mail
reliably.

Only that you should stop qmail-smtpd and wait for the queue to empty on the
old machine before turning off qmail completely.

> Is it even possible for two qmail servers to share the same queues if 
> said queues are on NFS?

No.  qmail can't share it's queue at all, not even on a local filesystem.

Aren't you confusing the queue with the maildirs/storage?

If so there's no problem at all, you can even cp the ~control/* from one machine to 
another.

Hum... and remember to keep synced the time on the NFS server with that on the qmail 
servers.

Hi,

I'm having a problem with SMTP.  It's working, but it's very-very slow (2-4
minutes to complete), but is always successful.

I have qmail-smtpd being handled by tcpserver, which is configured as
follows:

exec /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -p -R -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -u $QMAILDUID -g
$NOFILESGID -v -c100 0 smtp /apps/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd 2>&1

I also have my rcpthosts file configured as follows:

domain_name.net
hostname.domain_name.net
localhost.domain_name.net

I'm running Courier-IMAP/POP3 as well, which are working just fine, all
authenticating using LDAP.  Everything works fine except for SMTP.  All the
logs show that everything is working just fine..

Any clues as to what could be going wrong????  I've checked all the router
ACL's, they look good..   I'm at a loss as to what this a could be..

John






Dns lookups are slowing it down. From the tcpserver man page:

  -H     Do not look up the remote host name.

C ya.

This is a FAQ -- please search the archives. You've got a reverse-DNS or

I've experienced a situtation that is wierd...

I'm running qmail-smtpd/qmail-pop3d under daemontools.
Here's the run file:

        #!/bin/sh
         
        PATH=/var/qmail/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin
        export PATH
          
        QMAILDUID=`perl -e 'print scalar getpwnam qmaild'`
        NOFILESGID=`perl -e 'print scalar getgrnam nofiles'`
           
        exec tcpserver -v -R -H -x/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -u$QMAILDUID -g$NOFILESGID 0 25 
qmail-smtpd 2>&1

When I connect to the daemon from the local machine using its IP address

        telnet 216.13.139.139 25

there is a 10 second delay or so, as if a remote DNS or ident was being performed
and timing out.

However as you can see, I'm using both the -R and -H switches on tcpserver.

"telnet localhost 25" works fine/normally.

Any ideas as to what the delay is caused by and/or how to eliminate it?

              Do not look up the local host name;  use  localname

Hi,
 
I'm not where the setup has gone wrong here. Follow the Howto to setup Qmail, everything looks ok.
 
Qmail-inject is able to send out no problems at all. I can send to any account, local or not.
I send a mail in from another host and it gets recieved by qmail ok but wont deliver it locallally.
I send a mail from say outlook express and it connects, sends ok, then the mail just sits in the queue and wont deliver.
The log says CNAME_lookup_failed_temporarily and it doesn't seem to recognise when the mail is going to a local address.
 
I've gone over the FAQ and the mailing list archive and had no luck. I'm sure there's an easy answer here... can anyone help?
 
        Cheers,      -mic

Hi Guys,

I'm totally confused!
I hope someone can help me. My mailserver is running well, but yesterday,
suddenly, the mails couldn't go into my mailbox (no mailbox here by that
name #5.1.1), but it exist and WAS running well.  It seems the qmail doesn't
recognized that the username exist in /etc/passwd and the Maildir exist in
the homedir.
I tried to killall -HUP qmail-send.

Here is the bounce message and the log message:

Guys,

I've solved the problem. Actually I didn't know what was the problem, I just
removed my Maildir, did "maildirmake" and chown it again and killall -HUP
qmail-send, and suddenly it works.

I am happy now!

Is there a PAM-enabled checkpassword? www.qmail.org has a link to a patch
for checkpassword-0.81, but the only version available now seems to be
checkpassword-0.90.





As I indicated on my first post, this is our isp's server.  Consequently,
the bounce message is all I have to work with.  I was hoping someone would
give some general suggestions on where to look so that I could pass it on to
my isp.  Sorry to have troubled you all.

Hi,

Is there any speed/performance gain if I inject messages
directly via /mail/qmail/bin/qmail-inject instead of using
sendmail replacement (/mail/qmail/bin/sendmail)?
I know that sendmail command ultimately uses qmail-inject
to inject the messages so I figured I'd cut the 'middle-men'.

It appears that there are no side-effects provided that
I add "Return-Path <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>"
in the beginning of the message.

Can there be any problems with such a set up?

Thanks!

Why do you put asttrack-assoc.com in the files if the domain you want to
handle is fasttrack-assoc.com [HINT: there's an 'f' missing!]

Hi,

I know the 'f' is missing in 'asttrack'. The domain asttrack-assoc.com was
to test whether the number of characters before the hyphen had anything to
do with the problem. Removing the 'f' did in fact make a
difference........the mail was delivered to an address in the 'asttrack'
domain which was forwarded to a known working address.

Regards

Hi all.
I have a strange problem on my qmail server.
I have a linux box with time and date setted to right timezone.
When i try to deliver a mail directly from the consolle (mail
[EMAIL PROTECTED]), qmail deliver the mail but include a strange time.
For example:
the system date is 11:00 am
qmail show 09:00 am.
When i download the mail, the mail report 09:00 am, the wrong date.
If i send a mail using a PC client and a program like outlook express to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] usign qmail as smtp, the mail reach the destination with
the right time.

Someone  can help me?

Date: is set by the client, not qmail.

qmail-inject will insert GMT time

datemail will insert local time.
