[courier-users] Supporting sendmail user extensions

[courier-users] Re: Maildir filename format and mail migration
Ray Jackson writes: Mail store: timestamp.procid.hostname;size Webmail store: user%40pop3server%2etimestamp%2eprocid%2ehostname%3bsize So, anyway I did a test and copied an inbox off our existing mail store and copied them directly into a Maildir folder called oldmail (under the 'cur' sub-directory) and hey presto - my IMAP client simply recognised all the email and Courier created and updated a 'courierimapuiddb' file. I didn't need to rename the files or anything. I then copied the files and added :2,S on the end of the filenames and my IMAP client saw them all as read! For the Webmail store I copied the files again to a folder and then coverted the \r\n to \n and again it all worked with no file renaming etc. And Courier happily created a 'courierimapuiddb' file with the orginal file names etc. So, I guess my question is - Are there any problems or issues we might face with copying files into a Maildir directory without the standard Maildir filename format? No. The only issue will be that the relative order of messages in a folder may change, after the move. pgpnr6MJcF4tG.pgp Description: PGP signature

[courier-users] Logs
All right, this may be a stupid question, but here goes: Courier was logging to /var/log/mail.log. I do not have a log rotating program (someone want to recommend one with a link?). mail.log was getting fairly large so I moved mail.log, created a new one and restarted courier. Instead of logging to the new mail.log, it started logging to sys.log. This morning I did the same thing with sys.log and restarted courier, but now it does not appear to be logging to anywhere! Anyway to make it log to where it is supposed to?

Re: [courier-users] Logs
You are probably recreating the log files with rights that prevent Courier from writing to the files. Try deleting the new log files and restarting Courier. Courier should be able to create the log file itself with proper rights when it sees it doesn't exist. As for a log rotater, you didn't say much about what OS your running but I use logrotate which comes as an RPM on Redhat along with logwatch which emails me summary information from the logs each day. Works very nice. Just do a google for your platform. Jay -- Jay Lee Network / Systems Administrator Information Technology Dept.

[courier-users] IMAP and POP authentication
Hi list, for a long time I've being using Courier IMAP and POP in several servers with great results. But now I have a new need that I'm not sure how to address. I need to make IMAP and POP daemons authenticate on my MySQL DB using diferent SQL queries. This is because I have to permit some users to have access to IMAP and POP and others just to POP. I've created a new field in the database but I don't know how to make the two daemons use diferent SQL queries. I thought about running two authentication daemons and point IMAP to one and POP to the other. Is it possible? Or I better try something with ACLs?! Any help is appreciated. tks in advance.

Hmm... sounds like some spammer has managed to relay through your mail
server (unlikely with the default configuration), or has managed to
send spam through one of your downstreams, which uses you as a relay,
and all those messages are DSNs from the downstream.
If you want to zap _all_ the messages, you can stop courier, then
remove all the files from /var/spool/courier/msg{s,q}/*/* and restart
courier.

Courier normally logs to syslog. Syslog keeps its file open, so if you move mail.log and create a new one, syslog will still be logging to the file it had open (whatever you moved mail.log to). Even if you delete the mail.log file, syslog keeps logging to it and using more disk space.

If you set up your maildrop rules to use spamc as an xfilter, then you can deliver mail directly to maildrop. It's best to do this... your mail is less likely to be rejected. If courier won't accept a message (for instance, because the sender's DNS went offline never to return), that message will get stuck on your POP server, and fetchmail will download it every time it checks, and generally waste a lot of bandwidth. --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: SourceForge.net Broadband Sign-up now for SourceForge Broadband and get the fastest 6.0/768 connection for only $19.95/mo for the first 3 months! http://ads.osdn.com/?ad_id=2562alloc_id=6184op=click ___ courier-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-users

That did not work. It did not recreate the logs. As for what OS I am running: I do the LFS (linux from scratch) and I am running the 2.4.25 kernel.
