[courier-users] Workaround a broken SMTP server
Hi, Is there a way to disable outgoing esmtp TLS encryption for some specific mail servers? For example I have some messages into the queue for a domain for which the mail server is badly configured: telnet mail.digicom.ro 25 Trying 194.102.203.4... Connected to mail.digicom.ro. Escape character is '^]'. 220 mail.digicom.ro ESMTP EHLO localhost 250-mail.digicom.ro 250-STARTTLS 250-AUTH LOGIN CRAM-MD5 PLAIN 250-AUTH=LOGIN CRAM-MD5 PLAIN 250-PIPELINING 250-8BITMIME 250 SIZE 0 STARTTLS 454 TLS not available: missing certificate (#4.3.0) The 454 message is a temporary failure but as RFC 3207 states in chapter 4: "If the client receives the 454 response, the client must decide whether or not to continue the SMTP session. Such a decision is based on local policy." I would like to be able to continue the SMTP session or to ignore the STARTTLS capability which is wrongly advertised in this case. Is this possible? -- Mircea Damian Manager Infrastructura Metropolitana - Internet Data Astral Telecom Mihai Bravu 223 Sector 3, cod 030301 Tel: 021 326 5003 Fax: 021 326 6196 GSM: 0745 128 110 www.astral.ro inline: logo2.gif
[courier-users] Courier 0.45.5 IMAPD test after compilation fails if /etc/courier/maildirshared is present
Hi! I were building Courier 0.45.5. Build has run fine, but during the tests imapd test failed with non-zero code. Upon further investigation, it turned out that output from tests includes my installation-specific shared maildirs on that system. Hence te output from IMAP LIST commands doesn't match the reference output in testsuite.txt and test fails. This is due to the fact that imap testsuite runs imapd server in such a way that it reads the global system-wide maildirshared config file and makes the shared maildirs listed there avaiable to the client (also run by testsuite). When I temporarily rename /etc/courier/maildirshared tests complete with success code. So, this is a temporary workaround, but the testsuite needs to be corrected so that system-wide Courier configuration doesn't affect its results. -- Best Regards, Aleksander Adamowski GG#: 274614 ICQ UIN: 19780575 http://olo.ab.altkom.pl --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Oracle 10g Get certified on the hottest thing ever to hit the market...

I am sorry to keep bringing this up, but I have tried everything and am not sure where to turn next! The issue: one particular domain *appears* to be using me as a relay. The messages sit in my mailq and my log grows and grows. I have only a few actual users right now and I want to get this addressed before I get too many. My smtpaccess file ONLY has allow,RELAYCLIENT for localhost and the IP I registered for my domain. My locals file only has localhost and my domain and my esmtpacceptmailfor also is localhost and my domain as is hosteddomains. My installation is nothing special nor have I made any drastic changes to anything. Now, to be clear, I do not receive ANY spam from this domain or any other for that matter so I do not think this is a filtering issue, although it may be. So I guess my question has a few options: A.) How do I prevent this one domain from attempting to go through me and further HOW are they doing it? B.) How can I set the mailq so it does not hold onto these emails thereby slowing MY mail down? NOTE: I am not asking how to remove all the messages, I know how to do that. :) C.) Is there some place that I have not looked that I should be looking? Is this perhaps not even a courier issue but perhaps something in my system? (I don't think so but it does not hurt to consider it.) I am running an LFS system with the 2.4.25 kernel. Again I apologize for the continued whining and posting, but this is very frustrating to me and I would very much like to make it stop, so any help whatsoever, even if you think it is obscure, would be greatly appreciated.

RE: [courier-users] Aliases in MySQL
I'm not sure exactly the mechanism, but Quica seems to use the MySQL database to keep what it calls forwards, which act all for the world like aliases. It appears that it is creating a regular account, and then creating a .courier file with the address of where the message should go. I wanted to take a second and say that quica is pretty nice. It give Courier a good front-end. Although it is far from perfect, is has made it easier for me to have some non-technical people assist in account maintenance. So, if anyone is looking for a web-based front-end, you might want to glance at quica. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Pavel M.

[courier-users] Re: grrrr
The other day, I posted a syslog-based proceure that you can use to detect when undeliverable error bounces are getting repeatedly queued on your side, and then to automatically remove them from your queue. Look back in the mailing list for posts by me during this week, and you'll find a description of the method that I use within syslog, and in a second message by me, you'll find the Perl script that I use to actually delete the messages. This script can be modified to look at any criteria in the queue control file and any headers or body data in the message, and to use that info to decide whether the message should be removed from the queue. It's a bit of a hack, but it works well for me. I am sorry to keep bringing this up, but I have tried everything and am not sure where to turn next!

(I mean: I want to send it encrypted but if that fails with 454 just go over it) You can't do that in courier. You can either turn off TLS on a per domain basis, or you can do it globally by setting ESMTP_USE_TLS=0 in the /etc/courier/courierd file. But you can't tell courier to ignore the TLS error and continue with an unencrypted session.

How do I set the maximum size allowed for an attachment? I found the following in the esmtpd file ULIMIT=. The value specified after ULIMIT= what size does it equal bytes, Kilobytes, or Megabytes and would that be what I needed to set?

RE: [courier-users] grrrr
I can say ditto, except that my server did NOT relay the message. If your server failed on message 6, then it may or may not be an open relay. Message 6 has the following: 250 Ok MAIL FROM:[EMAIL PROTECTED] 250 Ok. RCPT TO:user-(mynumberhere)[EMAIL PROTECTED] 250 Ok. DATA 354 Ok. (message body) 250 Ok. 40AE5700.7407 My server accepted the message, and then promptly shipped it off to the catch-all for the domain. So, it's NOT a relay, even though the test told me that it may be. It seems other servers will reformat the % into the @ and send the message back out the queue. My server is stock, I built my own RPMs from the tarball of 0.45.4. And I must say that I am very impressed with Courier.

[courier-users] Multiple domain hosting via MySQL
I'm new to the list. Please forgive me if I make a mistake. I'm currently running Courier-MTA 0.45.4 under Gentoo Linux. I discovered, while setting Courier up to use the MySQL authentication daemon that users are not being found correctly in the database. I know I have the database connection right, and the table is correct, because I can authenticate users who belong to the same domain as the default domain in the MySQL settings. Users in other domains, however, don't work. Eg: Hosted domains: domain1.com, domain2.com DEFAULT_DOMAIN (in authmysqlrc) is domain1.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] are users in the database [EMAIL PROTECTED] works fine (250 Ok.) [EMAIL PROTECTED] returns 550 User unknown. [EMAIL PROTECTED] also works, though doesn't exist in the database Naturally, any normal local user on the machine is valid for all domains. What I'm trying to determine is if this is a known issue, and if it is fixed in 0.45.5 or not. Gentoo doesn't have an ebuild for 0.45.5 yet, and I want to make sure I don't waste my time trying to build 0.45.5 by hand (since Gentoo puts EVERYTHING in non-default places). I haven't tried with Postgres yet but if I have no choice I suppose I can go that route. LDAP isn't an option, I'm not clued-in enough on that to make it work. It LOOKS like the smtp daemon is only passing the user portion of the [EMAIL PROTECTED] string, instead of the whole thing, so the authmysql daemon adds @domain1.com and then does its checking. But I could be way off. Thanks ahead of time for any help anyone can provide! Joseph Pry --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Oracle 10g Get certified on the hottest thing ever to hit the market...

[courier-users] Courier for local mail delivery
Dear newsgroup, I am trying to set up Courier ESMTP for local mail delivery. Unfortunately it just doesn't want to accept mails send to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (for example). It gives me a 513 syntax error. It seems like Courier wants a fully qualified domain name, because it does work with [EMAIL PROTECTED] (which is set up in /etc/hosts). localhost and jupiter (which is the name of my computer) are set up in /etc/courier/locals though! I've also set up a symbolic link from locals to esmtpacceptmailfor.dir/local. Courier should not check for a valid domain name if it crosses a local domain, or do I miss something?

How do I set the maximum size allowed for an attachment? I found the following in the esmtpd file ULIMIT=.

Ok, the situation has changed slightly: I now see lots of 513s in my logs, relaying denied, so I am wondering if removing my ip from the smtpaccess file was the culprit? Anyway, now when I try to send mail to any other email address but mine (e.g. [EMAIL PROTECTED]) from work, which is not my localhost, it will not relay. Does this mean that for every user that is a remote user I have to add their IP to the smtpaccess file to allow them to send email?

Russell Premont writes: How do I set the maximum size allowed for an attachment? I found the following in the esmtpd file ULIMIT=. The value specified after ULIMIT= what size does it equal bytes, Kilobytes, or Megabytes and would that be what I needed to set? ULIMIT has nothing to do with the maximum size of an attachment. Here's the description of ULIMIT, from the esmtpd configuration file: # # Sets the maximum size of courieresmtpd's data segment # There's nothing here that refers to attachment sizes in any way. You want to set the sizelimit configuration file, and/or override it by setting SIZELIMIT in the smtpaccess file. See the courier(8) man page. pgp5jFexYFbWT.pgp Description: PGP signature

What is the magic setting? Courier checks for a period ('.') in any hostname. It will reject any domain that doesn't have a period in it. It has nothing to do with whether this domain is listed in locals or not. You'll have to comment out the check in the source code and rebuild courier if you want to change this behavior.

Re: [courier-users] Re: grrrr
Anyway, now when I try to send mail to any other email address but mine (e.g. [EMAIL PROTECTED]) from work, which is not my localhost, it will not relay. Does this mean that for every user that is a remote user I have to add their IP to the smtpaccess file to allow them to send email? Why not just turn on authenticated SMTP? No need to open ANY IP's to relayclient. -Chris --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Oracle 10g Get certified on the hottest thing ever to hit the market... Oracle 10g.

A lot of programs send mails to [EMAIL PROTECTED] addresses, fetchmail or cron for example. Do I have to use another MTA for my purpose? It means that you either need to patch courier to accept messages in this form or make sure that no programs send out messages addressed to [EMAIL PROTECTED]. Cron sends to whatever user you tell it to, usually in the form [EMAIL PROTECTED]. So make sure that 'hostname' returns a machine name that is in your locals file. Fetchmail, I believe, will do the same - it tries to get the 'hostname' and then falls back to localhost if it doesn't. (But don't quote me on that.) And while you're checking make sure that programs don't send to postmaster or any other address without a fully qualified domain because courier will reject that as well. (In this case I patch courier to accept a bare postmaster - but nothing else - because I had some program that insisted on sending it that way. Although I can't even remember any more what that program was. :-) Jeff Jansen --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Oracle 10g Get certified on the hottest thing ever to hit the market...

That would mean that he was doing Source NAT from outside to his internal network, right? That would seem to me to be a *very* bad idea and a really misconfigured firewall. Port forwarding should be Destination NAT and leave the source ip address alone. Or am I missing something?
