[courier-users] logrotate
I installed courier on a Debian Woody linux system but since then my /var/log/mail/mail.log grows and grows and never gets 'rotated' Can somebody explain to me how I can set this up myself? I read 'man logrotate' and can copy some rules, but I'm not sure what to do on the postrotate line. What exactly do I run there to get courier started again with a new mail.log? -- dick -- http://www.nagual.st/ -- PGP/GnuPG key: F86289CE ++ Running FreeBSD 4.8 ++ Debian GNU/Linux (Woody) + Nai tiruvantel ar vayuvantel i Valar tielyanna nu vilja --- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf ___ courier-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-users
[courier-users] Comment bug in makeuserdb.
I've found a non-critical bug in makeuserdb. This bug can be very annoying, because it causes makeuserdb to fail without giving you any indication of why makeuserdb is failing. If /etc/courier/userdb/example (for example) ends with a comment line, and if that final comment line does not have a \n on the end, makeuserdb will fail, will return 1, and will print a blank line. I tried looking at the the makeuserdb script to see why this was the case, but... it's Perl and I don't do Perl that well. I've verifyied the problem on FreeBSD 4.8 and Gentoo. Final lines containing user definitions with \n do not cause problems. Just comments cause the problem. -Matthew. --- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf ___ courier-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-users

[courier-users] Allfilter on Courier-0.43.1 - OpenBSD-3.3
I have Courier-mta-0.43.1 running almost completly on an OpenBSD-3.3/i386. But I don't get the filter for all messages to run. For a _bad_ message Courier works well. The filter responds a 500 error... to Courier and Courier sends it correcty to the client, rejecting the message. For a _good_ message, when the filter responds a 200 Ok. to Courier, Courier logs courieresmtpd: submitclient: EOF from submit. and responds 432 Service temporarily unavailable. to the client. Have any of you any help for this? Is this a OpenBSD issue? Have we a bug in the allfilter courier-0.43.1 (I have no Linux box here to test)?

[courier-users] Bounce messages will not go.
Hi all, Still struggling with my queue. I didn't get any bites on my request for a consultant so I will continue to ask questions and hopefully solve my own issues. My current questions involve bounce messages that are not able to be delivered for some reason. Currently I have 44000 of 48000 messages in my queue destined to go to a particular local address ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). Here is what the mailq entry looks like: = 12.1K003BC9AA.3F51F613.4F6B Aug 31 06:20 courier fail [EMAIL PROTECTED] = This is a message that I have run cancelmsg on so it will not bother to try to deliver to the listed recipient, but will instead try to bounce the message to the sender which is noone. I understand that when there is no sender, the bounce will be sent to postmaster. Here are the relevant log entries from the attempted force: = [EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# /usr/lib/courier/sbin/courier flush 003BC9AA.3F51F613.4F6B Sep 19 15:20:38 courier courierd: completed,id=003BC9AA.3F51F613.4F6B Sep 19 15:20:42 qmail courierd: started,id=003BC9AA.3F51F613.4F6B,from=,module=dsn,host=,addr= postmaster Sep 19 15:20:44 qmail courierd: completed,id=003BC9AA.3F51F613.4F6B = I have postmaster setup with an alias of [EMAIL PROTECTED] which should forward off to another box which runs the exim-MTA. However, instead of being delivered, I get these kinds of entries: = Sep 19 15:20:44 qmail courierd: newmsg,id=00238076.3F6B813B.18C4: dns; localhost (localhost [127 .0.0.1]) Sep 19 15:20:44 qmail courierd: started,id=00238076.3F6B813B.18C4,from=[EMAIL PROTECTED],module=esmtp,host= ocis.net,addr=[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sep 19 15:20:44 qmail courierd: started,id=00238076.3F6B813B.18C4,from=[EMAIL PROTECTED],module=esmtp,host= ocis.net,addr=[EMAIL PROTECTED] = So, basically, the local postmaster user has an alias to [EMAIL PROTECTED] However, when bounces try to go to that user, the are being addressed from [EMAIL PROTECTED] and my Exim-MTA interprets that as a domain literal and disallows the message. I am having a hard time searching this one out as the characters seem to be 'special' and so search engines don't give very good results. Also, I don't seem to be able to find a search function of the courier-users mailing list. I look forward to any replies that can help define why bounce messages destined for the local postmaster get sent as [EMAIL PROTECTED] when postmaster has been aliased to an offsite user.

Michelle Murrain writes: First off, my understanding from the docs and the INSTALL readme was that MySQL support was native - in order to get it working, I'd just need to edit the authmysqlrc file (I haven't gotten there yet). So I used the default build configuration. I could have missed something in the docs I read, so I was wrong, please let me know. Also, if using RPMs is better, please let me know. The default configuration file defines the names of various tables and fields that you're going to use for authentication. Unless your actual database schema just happens to match the suggested default configuration, nothing is going to work. And, using RPMs is highly recommended. Although you still need to do this configuration, RPMs will take care of properly compiling and installing MySQL support. pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

[courier-users] Compile Errors on RH9

[courier-users] indexing of arbitrary header-fields
Is it possible to make Courier index arbritary header-fields? I run a large-scale courier based IMAP-site - and we have a steady growth in header-searches (mostly for self-defined X-SOME-NAME: some-value). On the same time these folders are increasing in size and number of messages. I presume this is kind of difficult since IMAP's protocol defines a match for a search as a substring of the valuefield: SEARCH HEADER My-Field MyValue so a SEARCH in My-Field for al, My og MyValue would all match, hence hashing or other techniques won't work - at least not for a substring - thus breaking the protocol if implemented this way. Does courier implement any [propitary] indexes? Do anybody know of an IMAP server that can make use of a back-store in a database or the likes, giving faster searching, and a IMAP capable front?

[courier-users] Re: vpopmail and courier-imap
Jon Keller writes: I'm having a problem with authentication and vpopmail with courier-imap, I have a server which is very busy with webmail requests and it seems courier-imap (or the auth module its using) is updating the open-smtp file, its updating so much that its locking other people out while its being written to, causing imap auth errors...does anyone have a fix for this? Courier-IMAP does not update any file called open-smtp. If you search Courier-IMAP's source you will find no reference to any file of that name. This file appears to be updated by the vpopmail library. Courier-IMAP merely invokes a single function whose name includes open-smtp (and this portion of the code has actually been pulled out of recent Courier-IMAP sources due to a security issue with vpopmail), and everything that happens from that point on occurs internal to the vpopmail library. Issues with vpopmail libraries are better addressed on the vpopmail list. pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature
[courier-users] Re: Compile Errors on RH9
Thomas Smith writes: I had Courier-IMAP running on RH7.2. I upgraded to RH9 and all was fine. I decided to move away from VmailMgr (was testing it at the time) to vpopmail. In order for Courier to authenticate via vpopmail I had to enable authvchkpw as I disabled on the prior install. configure works fine using the following command: su vpopmail -c ./configure --without-auth pwd --without-authshadow --without-authuserdb --without-authcram --without-auth ldap --without-authmysql --without-authdaemond (I used the vpopmail user so ./configure could read ~vpopmail/lib/libvpopmail.) The problem occurs when I run make (su vpopmail -c make). I get the following error: gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I. -I./.. -I.. -Wall -g -O2 -c starttls.c In file included from /usr/include/openssl/ssl.h:179, from starttls.c:47: /usr/include/openssl/kssl.h:72:18: krb5.h: No such file or directory For some reason your configure script did not pick up the Kerberos dependencies.
