Friends,
I am unable to recieve email from an account from an outside domain -
where the account name has an " ' "
( apostrophe ) the account is mich.d’[email protected]
1- is it true that it is the ' ( between the D and the A ) that is
causing the pain.
Probably. Is chkuser what's rejecting the message?
2- is there a way i can whitelist this address?
Not if that's the problem.
i have googled and i see
is this my only remedy?
I think so.

When the build process pauses, open another terminal and edit
*/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/qmail-1.03/chkuser_settings.h* to your liking.
You have 5 minutes (or whatever you changed the sleep parameter to).
Save your changes and wait for the 300 seconds to expire and watch it
build.
would i do something like this?
define CHKUSER_ALLOW_SENDER_CHAR_3 '''
which i get from
http://wiki.qmailtoaster.com/index.php/CHKUSR_-_Enable_characters_for_Blackberry_devices
can i follow the procedure of the above with just the 1 change
of not
define CHKUSER_ALLOW_SENDER_CHAR_3 '/'
butdefine CHKUSER_ALLOW_SENDER_CHAR_3 '''
any good ideas welcomed!
I don't think ''' will do what you want. My C is a little rusty but I
think that
define CHKUSER_ALLOW_SENDER_CHAR_3 "'"
might work.
Perhaps Antonio (Tonix - the chkuser author) can advise better if he's
lurking here. Tonix, you here?
Thanks,
I was wondering - i am no C coder myself -
if i do it wrong - can i do harm? -
meaning if i did : define CHKUSER_ALLOW_SENDER_CHAR_3 "'"
might it fail to compile ?
or if it compiles might it simply fail to allow the apostrophe?
mostly - dose anyone think - i could do 'harm' by errant attempts
my list of trys might be
CHKUSER_ALLOW_SENDER_CHAR_3 ''' [ apostrophe apostrophe apostrophe ]
CHKUSER_ALLOW_SENDER_CHAR_3 "'" [ dblQuote apostrophe dblQuote }
CHKUSER_ALLOW_SENDER_CHAR_3 '\'' [ apostrophe escapeSlash apostrophe
apostrophe ]
if any BIG C coders have a suggestion -- i would welcome the wisdom
thanks
Give it a try. You won't break your QMT by simply trying to build the
binary rpm. If the compiler doesn't like it, the build will fail. Of
course, just because the compiler doesn't complain doesn't mean that
it'll do what you want. Can only tell that by installing the binary rpm
you build. I doubt that it will break your QMT though even if it doesn't
do what you want.
FWIW, I'm guessing the compiler will choke on the first one, but not on
the other two.
