[courier-users] courier-imap 1.4.5 + outlook express (imap) ? timeout on moving messages
Configuration: courier-imap 1.4.5 rh 73 machine exim as MTA on a decent hardware configuration. I trashed the test account with some 10 thousand test emails to inbox. Configured MS-Outlook Express as IMAP client and besides having to set the root folder path as INBOX, everything works well, until: If I try to move a couple of thousands of messages from one imap folder to another, Outlook Express complains of server timeouts. Is anybody aware whether Outlook Express is broken? Eudora seems to be sturdier, but I'm getting a duplicate folder hierarchy. One under the 'root' and a copy under 'Inbox'. Is Eudora broken too?? Is it just me? :-( Brendon ___ Have big pipes? SourceForge.net is looking for download mirrors. We supply the hardware. You get the recognition.

Re: [courier-users] Unable to send mail; DNS error
Salve Sam, usually I don't me2 but I need this fixed asap. It's an OBSD 3.0 as well, courier 0.38.0, the esmtproutes has one entry: \t:\t[my.smarrelay.s.ip]\n And yes, DNS is working fine. As there is a smarthost for all domains, courier should not even attempt to resolve anything. Which he indeed does not try, as a tcpdump shows. Hmm, the DNS error is the default case in a switch. The function whose return value is switched on is a /etc/resolv.conf parser. Is this really necessary, I thought all *nix already had a lib for this :) He parses the IP of the name server OK, then does some init and returns 0. Anyway, somewhere in there it fails and doesn't recover. Heureka! It's the IPV6 support, which causes him to fail, now there is another error but that is self inflicted damage and solvable. So to fix this behavior under OBSD 3.0: ./configure --without-ipv6 BTW, am I the only one who got a ../var/authdaemon/ which can't be read by his config? Or is it mentioned in the INSTALL that all services who require the authdaemon have to be in the mailgroup or be the courier user?

[courier-users] esmtpauthclient and load balancing providers
Hello, I encountered the following problem: A provider offers the virtual hostauth.smtp.kundenserver.defor authenticated smtp. This hostname may refer to different physical hosts. A reverse lookup shows a different hostname like e.g. mrelayng.kundenserver.de. The file esmtpauthclient needs to hold the real name of the host in order to work. Otherwise the mailrelay isn't recognized for authentication. Shouldn't the file esmtpauthclient also work for the virtual name? I only tested this with mailrelays named in esmtproutes.

Make sure libvpopmail.a is in the link path. Ifvpopmail is installed in
/home/vpopmail, the re-run the configure script like this:
$ LDFLAGS=-L/home/vpopmail ./configure {your options}
also, makesure the permissions on your vpopmail installation path are readable
by your login id. Try these commands:
$ su
{root pwd)
# chmod 755 {/path/to/vpopmail}
# chmod 755 {/path/to/vpopmail}/lib
You could also make a symbolic link in /usr/lib to the libvpopmail.a file and
that should work, but make sure the file permissions will allow the linker to
actually read that file.
Good luck! :)

[courier-users] dorewrite
Hi, I've been using Courier (smtp imap w/mysql) for a few months now, and I really don't mind that it is very strict when it comes to RFCs. However, I host mail for a few friends and family members, who really dislike not being able to receive mail from e.g. hotmail. Especially, when they receive an email with a binary attachment such as an image (it's rather difficult to see the image when it becomes a simple plain text attachment ;). To get around this, I simply took the source code (0.38.1) and grep'ed for dorewrite, and I changes all (about a handful) dorewrite=1 to dorewrite=0. I actually know nothing about c/c++ code, so it may infact break things. However, it seems to work for me. Receiving wacky-formatted emails is now possible (at least I haven't noticed anything bad happening yet). I know it is not the right thing to do, but I have really tried to make friends and familiy understand that it is an issue with bad email clients and not my mail server. But, you know, they just want to be able to receive email from anywhere no matter how broken a sender's email client may be. Like other Courier users I'd really appreciate if this thing gets implemented as a compile-time option, but on the other hand, I can understand why Sam and the other developers won't implement it. Broken email clients should really be fixed instead. Regards, Frederik Dannemare ___ Have big pipes? SourceForge.net is looking for download mirrors. We supply the hardware. You get the recognition.

Broken email clients should really be fixed instead. This has been discussed about 1000 times before, thats why the issue was solved by adding a run-time option to allow you to choose what should be done with non-conforming mail without needing to change random lines in the source code.

[courier-users] Outlook Express, IMAP, and POP3
We are looking into Courier for deployment on our FreeBSD 4.4-RELEASE mail server. I was reading the Courier documentation and noticed the notes about OE (specifically, OE5) having issues with Courier and IMAP. We are only going to be using IMAP with our webmail software (SquirrelMail), so OE access will be POP3 only. Any known issues? I didn't see any, but if we move to Courier after having Cyrus be a problem for us, and then OE fails to work consistently, well, I'm getting a big hammer and.. Naturally, we are going to test, test, test. But you know how some things find a way of staying hidden. Also, anyone use SquirrelMail with Courier? Any problems? IMAP is IMAP is IMAP, so I don't see why there should be a problem, but you never know.

Originally, stunnel was used to wrap IMAP over SSL. I don't remember if it were ever used for STARTTLS with either IMAP or SMTP. Right now, a small wrapper performs SSL/TLS encapsulation over a socket stream. The module is vaguely similar in functionality to stunnel, but provides some additional functionality that stunnel does not have: optional X.509 certificate validation (requiring the remote server's X.509 certificate having a matching CN, and signed by a trusted CA); sending the negotiated SSL/TLS parameters to the local server, to be recorded in the Received: headers; and several other certificate-related processing.

[courier-users] Virtual domains and MySQL-based authentication?
We would like to maintain our user information in a MySQL database as we already have the tools required to maintain our accounts. (We are coming from Cyrus, which can auth against a MySQL database via PAM.) So, I see that we can use the pam auth mech. to authenticate users, but it appears that Courier virtual domain support requires authdb, which in turn relies on a local database. Is this correct? We would like to support virtual domains, but use mysql to authenticate against. I am getting my information mainly from: http://www.inter7.com/courierimap/INSTALL.html After reading: http://www.inter7.com/courierimap/authlib.html I wonder if in fact auth. can in fact be done in any fashion? The section on authpam states that: authenticates using the system's PAM library (pluggable authentication module). This is, essentially, a way to use existing PAM modules for authentication functionality. Note, however, that the authenticated account's home directory, userid and groupid are still read from the /etc/passwd file, since PAM functionality is limited to validating account passwords. Is the authentication method separate from the virtual domain implementation? I then found: http://sourceforge.net/projects/pmcadmin/ Which seems to be based configuring courier to auth. virtual domain users against mysql. Thanks!

I was wondering if there's any truth to that, and if so what the reasons were. There's some kernel of truth in there, but generally this is half-baked hearsay. Originally, stunnel was used to wrap IMAP over SSL. I don't remember if it were ever used for STARTTLS with either IMAP or SMTP. Right now, a small wrapper performs SSL/TLS encapsulation over a socket stream. The module is vaguely similar in functionality to stunnel, but provides some additional functionality that stunnel does not have: optional X.509 certificate validation (requiring the remote server's X.509 certificate having a matching CN, and signed by a trusted CA); sending the negotiated SSL/TLS parameters to the local server, to be recorded in the Received: headers; and several other certificate-related processing. You're not going to be able to accomplish this by trying to stuff stunnel into someplace. -- Thanks! I'll dig around and see if I can use parts of your wrapper instead of stunnel. What I really like about the configuration I've got right now with (a modified) stunnel is that stunnel runs with minimal privileges in a chroot'd environment, so any kind of security problem in stunnel or the openssl libraries will have a very minimal impact.
