If you don't store the plain text passwords, the IMAP_CAPABILITY setting
in the imapd configuration file must not have AUTH=CRAM-MD5
AUTH=CRAM-SHA1. Those authentication methods require that you store
the plain text passwords.
If you *can* store the plain text passwords, you'll find that those are
more secure authentication methods. Your users' plain text passwords
won't be passing over the network regularly.

RE: [courier-users] Has anyone used courier clam-av? What's the preferred method of integration?
I had to setup our server in a very short time frame so I didn't have the chance to document thing as much as I would have liked, but anyway I don't recall using anything more than the documentation that is included in both packages. I'm using Mandrake 9.1, courier 0.42.2, clamav-0.60-1mdk and amavis-ng-0.1.6.4-3mdk. The tricky part was using couriers perlfilter mechanism to call amavis. But the information is also in courier's docs. You can try to use our config files as a starting point. Hope this helps some, if you have any problems drop another message to the list.

[courier-users] External message editing?
I am continually encountring DSN messages from sbc-webhosting mailservers (the phone company... big provider) that are invalid. On the line following the headers they contain tab characters, where this line MUST be blank. These messages cause Outlook (and only Outlook) to fail when reading the messages via POP. Outlook generates a meaningless error for the user and the clients is listed as DICONNECTED in the log. SInce these messages come any time anyone sends something to a full mailbox hosted by sbc-webhosting I get them pretty frequently. Then the users are effectively locked out of their mailbox (unless they use another mail client, but that battle seems to be fruitless) until I manually either remove the tabs from tat line, or delete the mesaage. I was thinking about running a PERL script from cron that would clean these messages up periodically. So that the problem would clear itself with not intervention from me. Are there any problems with having external programs edit messages in a user's Maildir? Is there a better way to do this? I have notified sbc-webhosting on more than one occasion. They give no response, and their servers remain bug-laden... Nice customer service... Any ideas would be appreciated.

I wondered that, but why would it not simply try unencrypted? I do not have my server set up to use TLS. The server replied with a 4xx code to the STARTTLS command (enable encryption). All that the sender can infer from that is that the command failed with a 4xx status code. Nothing more, nothing else. Any 4xx status code means that the receiving server is temporarily unable to process the command, and that the sender should try again later. That's all it means, nothing more, nothing else. If the server did not support encryption altogether, this would've been indicated in a different way (the server would not advertize the STARTTLS ESMTP capability). The sender here cannot assume why the command failed. All the sender knows is that the command was rejected with a temporary failure indication. The sender cannot conclude that this is because the recipient does not support encryption. Another possibility, just as valid, is that the receiving mail server is currently running low on memory and cannot accept more mail, and the sender should try again later. pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

I changed some of the paths in your perlfilter to match my system, but it
doesn't seem to be doing anything. I put it in
/usr/lib/courier/libexec/filters, ran filterctl start clamav-filter.pl, and
courierfilter start. I don't get any error messages or rejects, but it
doesn't seem to be scanning anything.
I'm using redhat-9 with courier-0.43.1 rpms built from tarballs.

Black hole seems to be interesting, in that it is C not PERL and can
manage
both calls to spamassassin clam-av...
BUT the documentation is lagging the code - saw some comment in the list
archives of people starting to work with it - anyone presently?
If not, anyone know which version of amavis works best and why?
My perfect world would be an efficient method of using spamc clam-av
(which seems to be more active than openantivirus?) with database based
config for easy user driven control...
Hope this isn't considered too far afield - it is integration
related. ;-)
Many thanks.

[courier-users] Outlook / Imap Issue
I have Outlook 2000 with sp3 setup to check an IMAP account. It works ok, but after a few minutes it starts prompting me for a password, even though it is correct. Sometimes it says cannot get header...etc. Any ideas why it's doing this? Webmail seems to work ok. attachment: winmail.dat

I just changed one account to match what you said you had (home and mail pointing to the same directory) and I couldn't log in properly. With SqWebMail I got the error maildir_createmsg: cannot create temp file. With kmail pop3 I got the error pop3d: No such file or directory in my log and with kmail imap I got the error Unable to open INBOX. Although in neither case did kmail say it couldn't log in. It just gave me the errors listed above. I don't know if you are seeing similar problems or not. Anyway, let me know what I said fixes the problem. If not, then obviously you're right - the problem lies elsewhere.

[courier-users] mysql-based user administration utilities?
I am running courier-imap, using the mysql account/authentication backend. Right now, I'm using Captainnet's mailAdmin ( http://maxo.captainnet.net/mailAdmin/index.php ) to administer accounts, but I'm finding it to be something of a crude hack, and am looking for something more robust. Surely I've simply somehow managed to miss seeing the big, useful, stable tool that everyone uses to administer courier-imap+mysql? Or are people all writing their own by hand? -- Daniel Drucker / [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- This SF.net email sponsored by: Enterprise Linux Forum Conference Expo The Event For Linux Datacenter Solutions Strategies in The Enterprise Linux in the Boardroom; in the Front Office; in the Server Room http://www.enterpriselinuxforum.com ___ courier-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-users

RE: [courier-users] Outlook / Imap Issue
Ok, I increased the number of connection from one IP from 4 to 10 in the imapd config file, and the number of daemons from 5 to 10 in the authdaemonrc config file. Everything seems to be working fine now. Seems to need more connections with the more folders I have expanded. I am checking 3 different e-mail accounts at once, so that would account for a need for more connections. But my question is, is this recommended procedure? Are there any other ways?

RE: [courier-users] Outlook / Imap Issue
Hey Ryan. A couple things you can do. Experiment with check this account when sending / receiving - this seemed to result in multiple connection streams... The other answer you already found... Outlook - depending on version - can have 2 - 4 sessions active per account... with exchange and other IMAP servers like uw, the new connection from the same IP terminates the original connection I think - but with courier, it can have multiple connection tied up at once for EACH account. Your auth daemons should be fine with 5 though - I have hundreds of active accounts on some of my servers and never had to increase the number of authdaemons. The problem gets worse when you NAT - I've got clients with 20 mail boxes using outlook, so my max per ip is around 100, which makes it real easy to DOS the IMAP service - defeating the purpose of the setting... but whatcha gonna do? 20 mail boxes, 4 connections, plus a few who have multiple mail boxes... adds up to 100 sessions peak at once pretty quick. hth m/ -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Ryan Burton Sent: Friday, October 17, 2003 8:57 PM To: Caleb Shay; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [courier-users] Outlook / Imap Issue Ok, I increased the number of connection from one IP from 4 to 10 in the imapd config file, and the number of daemons from 5 to 10 in the authdaemonrc config file.
