Mail Filtering or rewriting
Hi all! Recently we are facing a problem of mail bombing from some MS Win9x customer. Its due to a email worm. It sends a virus file attached with. extensions are *.pif, *.lnk etc. I was looking for any patch which will help me to scan this attached files and do the needful. Is there any? Secondly, some clients are sending a mail with 1000 cc or bcc to my local users. Is there any tools to stop this junk mails? Thanks in advance. Sifat __ Do You Yahoo!?

vmailmgr and svc problem (newbie)
I have installed VMailMgr on my system but I can't quite figure out how to get the daemon up and running using svc. I'm on an OpenBSD2.9 system and all the instruction I have found are for Linux and it's rc.d files and svc-start options. Can anyone tell me how to set up vmailmgr with svs so that it is started automatically and properly using tcpeserver? Thanks!

Security Check generated by AXENT Netrecom 3.0 points security flaw in qmail-smtpd
Hi all, I have qmail 1.03, with tcpserver, vpopmail and qmailscanner and when I test my network for vulnerabilities using AXENT Netrecom 3.0 the following security results is displayed about my qmail server host: SMTP allows remote command execution via recipient filter. Risk: 86 Description: Attackers can execute arbitrary shell commands by addressing e-mail to a filter. Note: If your SMTP software does not support filters, this is not a vulnerability. if you are not sure if your SMTP software supports filters, contact your vendor. This vulnerability aplies primarily to UNIX systems. Solution: Upgrade or replace your SMTP server, or verify that it does not support filter. Questions: Anybody know anything about this? Where can I get additional information about this? This Results checks is True or false? (Sorry by my poor english) Best regards, Agnaldo Mariano Monteiro
svc won't shutdown supervised pop3d...
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hello, I've added supervising of qmail-pop3d and POP3S support via stunnel and qmail-pop3d to what is a pretty standard LWQ+vpopmail based setup. I added the following files to the LWQ setup: /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-pop3d/run #!/bin/sh /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -u `id -u vpopmail` -g `id -g vpopmail` -v - -R 0 110 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup \ `hostname` /bin/checkpassword /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir 21 /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-pop3d/log/run #!/bin/sh exec /usr/local/bin/setuidgid qmaill /usr/local/bin/multilog t \ /var/log/qmail/pop3d /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-spop3d/log/run #!/bin/sh exec /usr/local/bin/setuidgid qmaill /usr/local/bin/multilog t \ /var/log/qmail/spop3d /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-spop3d/run #!/bin/sh /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -R -H -D -c 50 \\ - -v -u `id -u vpopmail` -g `id -g vpopmail` 0 pop3s /usr/local/sbin/stunnel -T -p /etc/stunnel.pem -l \ /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup -- qmail-popup `hostname` /bin/checkpassword \ /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir 21 which get started by the following qmailctl extract (which is, AFAIK, qmailctl-0.68 or something, as for some reason, I can't get to 0.70 to work but OTOH, I don't mind it as I don't want to pollute / with a services directory anyway: start) echo -n Starting qmail: svscan cd /var/qmail/supervise exec env - PATH=\$PATH svscan echo \$! /var/run/svscan.pid echo . ;; stop) echo -n Stopping qmail: svscan kill `cat /var/run/svscan.pid` echo -n qmail svc -dx /var/qmail/supervise/* echo -n logging svc -dx /var/qmail/supervise/*/log echo . Now starting the (s)pop3d isn't a problem at all and logging is being done as it should, but qmailctl stop will only shutdown qmail-send and qmail-smtpd but not the tcpservers for (S)POP3 and if one decides to do qmailctl start then, supervise will eat up all system resources trying to start new tcpservers which obviously fails cause there are still the old ones around. What am I doing wrong? BTW: In case anyone is interested, I got a Perl script that sets all this stuff up automatically on FreeBSD systems (basically it should work on others too, but it won't install the users as this is done by the FreeBSD qmail port already), so if you like to have it, drop me a note (but better wait til this last problem is fixed;-).

Announce: QSP - Qmail Spamkiller Project
Hello ,
Spamkiller engine for QMAIL with SHA authentication and more
I would like to announce my QSP - a new approach in blocking SPAM with
SHA authentication, special support for mailinglists, individual
templates and so on Its
a very modular system comes with rich API to make your own extensions.
I wrote this modules and libraries for python because I am really angry against spam
and its
time to stop this with some intelligent and new ways and without the
usage of online-blacklists and so on.
Detailed project informations: www.x-itec.de/QSP
Source and Download available at the beginning of 09/2001
Tested with more than 90.000 mails at the moment.
Status: Development, SHA authentication is complete, working on the
next module for mailinglists.
If you want to read more about this interesting project, see my
project page. If you want to test it just for fun, send me a mail *ggg
to [EMAIL PROTECTED] - if the system is enabled, you will get an
authorization request. Otherwise there is a bug again -((
The project is free for download in 09/2001 and comes with source and
documentation. Pyhton required.

Denying email by sender's From address
Hi all, I've tried searching through the qMail documentation as well as the databases here with no luck. What I'm trying to do is drop a message from an external sender before it reaches the email of a specific internal sender (also, if possible, I would like to modify the scope of this so that it includes the ability to block globally, but that's much less important). The use a .qmail file or a perl script to drop the messages before they reach their destination, but I would think that qMail would have something built into it? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! Nick Papageorge
Front-end virus scanner
I'm trying to set up a qmail front-end smtp server to scan all mail for seacove.net using qmail-scanner (scan4virus). I was hoping to direct all mail for seacove.net to the front-end machine(vscanner1.seacove.net) using an MX.record then route the mail on to my primary server (mail.seacove.net) using control/smtproutes The virus scanner and qmail is running fine on the front-end machine. Both the front end and primary mail hosts are running qmail-1.03 under tcpserver. My MX record for seacove.net looks like this: IN MX10 vscanner1.seacove.net vscanner1 has seacove.net in its rcpthosts, but not in its locals, and it scans the mail and sends it on to mail.seacove.net because of an entry: seacove.net:mail.seacove.net in control/smtproutes. Now mail.seacove.net has seacove.net is in locals, so it accepts the mail and sends it to the maildirs. So this setup works just as I had envisioned it except for local mail from seacove.net to seacove.net I can't think of any way to route the local mail first to vscanner1 then accept it the second time around when it comes back from vscanner1. If I remove seacove.net from control/locals on mail.seacove.net, I believe qmail will use the MX record and send local mail for seacove.net on to vscanner1, which creates a looping route, because mail.seacove.net will never accept the mail. Same if I use control/smtproutes, because I believe it will just keep routing it back to vscanner1. In my case, changing the MUA settings to use vscanner1 for outgoing mail is not a viable option. Basically, I'm looking for a way for mail.seacove.net to send local mail for seacove.net to vscanner1.seacove.net then have it sent back to mail.seacove.net where it will be treated as a local. Am I just wasting my time trying to do this or overlooking some obvious way of treating this problem? Any suggestions? Thanks in advance, Dennis Duval

Qmailqueue patch over current qmail 1.03
Hi, I've already installed: Qmail 1.03+Vpopmail 4.10+sqwebmail+daemontools+ezmlm+autoresond+ucspi (PHWEW!) and I was wondering what would happen if I patched a brand new qmail 1.03 with the qmailqueue patch (I want to use virus scanning) and installed the patched qmail over itself.

You shouldn't have to use a brand new qmail 1.03 -- none of the packages above require patching qmail, to my knowledge, so what you're running now is a pure vanilla qmail plus addons. Would I lose anything? Files, configurations, etc? You shouldn't. Just cd to the qmail source directory where you previously compiled qmail. Then apply the QMAILQUEUE patch, and do make setup check.

Re: Qmailqueue patch over current qmail 1.03
No, I did. the qmail-queue patch only mods 2 files and the config for it is also by itself. qmail-queue will slow down mail processing (did in my case) so if its a medium/high volume smtp server then you better plan for some additional bogomips to fire off the scanning. -- Paul Farber Farber Technology [EMAIL PROTECTED] Ph 570-628-5303 Fax 570-628-5545 On Tue, 14 Aug 2001, board master wrote: Hi, I've already installed: Qmail 1.03+Vpopmail 4.10+sqwebmail+daemontools+ezmlm+autoresond+ucspi (PHWEW!) and I was wondering what would happen if I patched a brand new qmail 1.03 with the qmailqueue patch (I want to use virus scanning) and installed the patched qmail over itself.

Configuring qmail to accept *all* mail
Hello,
I have a vanilla (life with qmail-style) qmail server up and running on an internal
development x86 linux server. Since this is supposed to be a test server for some mail
applications that are being developed, what I would like to do is to configure qmail
to accept all mail it receives for local delivery and place it in a single directory.
I have already figured out that I can comment out the following two lines in
qmail-smtpd.c in order to bypass the 'rcpt to' envelope check, so it will accept any
email sent to the machine regardless of the address:
// else
//if (!addrallowed()) { err_nogateway(); return; }
I also have a .qmail-default file in /var/qmail/alias, which redirects all local mail
over to /home/devmail/Maildir.
The last piece of the puzzle is to short-circuit qmail-send (I'm guessing) so that it
will hand all mail over to qmail-lspawn, and never to qmail-rspawn. Since I'm not a
programmer, I'm having difficulty digging through qmail-send.c (over 1600 lines!) to
figure out what to comment out and/or change. Any help at all would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks,
Jeremy Frank

Re: How to copy outoging messages?
I have about 50 users and they are in 5 groups. I want to copy each group user outgoing message to their manager like a cc /bcc message. I already compile qmail with extra.h. and see the FAQ of administration part, but I still don't know how to make each email message in individual files like a single queue. Moreover, I think it is more convenience for me to setup a qmail can copy all incoming and outgoing email to a email account like forward. Thank you for attentions.
