[courier-users] Avoiding '@localhost' Syntax Errors when using Fetchmail and Courier SMTP
Hi guys, I've made another step towards my email server (I'm trying to get fetchmail to talk to Courier), but have come across the problem that Courier SMTP server doesn't like a @localhost address and gives a syntax error. Having read up on this, I know it is resolved through using the smtpaddress variable to stamp on a proper RCPT TO variable. However, most of the documentation appears to be aimed at professional administrators, who would have a proper domain name. I on the other hand do not - and am finding the domain aspect problematic. I know how to stamp a 'fake' domain name onto my box using the /etc/hosts file, but this did not change anything. So far i've tried to send mail to courier using the command mail -s subject [EMAIL PROTECTED] and mail -s subject [EMAIL PROTECTED] (the machine's hostname is mail) and both come through no problems at all. However, if I add another definition to the /etc/hosts file i.e. 127.0.0.1 localhostlocalhost.localdomain -OR- 192.168.1.2mailmail.mydomain.com and use a similar mail command addressed to mail.mydomain.com or localhost.localdomain, nothing happens. My question is what domain should I tag on to the smtpaddress in my .fetchmailrc file to avoid the courier error, and what configuration files do I need to amend to implement the false domain? Any help appreciated, its my first time :) Dan Garland --- This SF.Net email sponsored by Black Hat Briefings Training.

Re: [courier-users] Avoiding '@localhost' Syntax Errors when using Fetchmail and Courier SMTP
Been down this road. The long and short of it is this: 'localhost' is not a valid FQDN (fully-qualified domain name) because it has no domain. Also, courier doesn't use /etc/hosts (or the normal libc name resolution functions, it implements it's own), you'll just have to do delivery via Maildrop or something else like that.

Re: [courier-users] Courier Imap and Active Directory authentication.
Another way to do this is to install Samba 3 and use Winbindd to do your linux authentication to the AD. That way, in Courier-Imap you use PAM authentication and it will check AD through PAM and Winbindd. This is what I do for my users. It also allows for single sign-on if any of my users need linux shell accounts, say for FTP access or whatnot.

[courier-users] authmysql custom queries not working
Hi all,
I am setting up a fresh courier install on a gentoo box.
I'm finding that I'm getting 450 service temporarily unavailable
whenever I try to send mail to the local domain. Evidently this is
because something is amiss with the authmysql back end (I am using
'authpam authmysql' in authdaemon). Running authenumerate returns only
the authpam entries, and none from my mysql table.
Now, I've turned on logging in mysql, and apparently authdaemon is making
a database connection, but not sending any query at all. What gives?
I believe the problem is related to using the custom queries, which I am
employing. According to the comments in the authmysqlrc, specifying
these queries should override all of the earlier individual table/column-
related settings in the file. Indeed, if I comment out the
MYSQL_*_CLAUSE lines and fill out valid details in the preceding table/
column lines, authdaemon makes queries to mysql and authenumerate returns
results.
My conclusion is that something is broken with custom queries. I realise
the comments say (EXPERIMENTAL), but the text goes on to suggest that
they at least KIND OF work. What is the real deal here? Are they known
to NOT work at all?
For reference my config lines are as follows:
MYSQL_SELECT_CLAUSE SELECT mailboxes.account, mailboxes.cryptpass,
mailboxes.clearpass AS clearpw, usersites.uid, usersites.uid AS gid,
CONCAT('/home/',usersites.user) AS home,
IF('$(service)'='courier',mailboxes.defaultdelivery,mailboxes.maildir) AS
defaultdelivery_maildir, NULL AS quota, mailboxes.name, '' AS options
FROM mailboxes LEFT JOIN usersites ON mailboxes.user=usersites.user WHERE
mailboxes.account='$(local_part)@$(domain)'
MYSQL_ENUMERATE_CLAUSE SELECT mailboxes.account, usersites.uid,
usersites.uid AS gid, CONCAT('/home/',usersites.user) AS home,
mailboxes.maildir FROM mailboxes LEFT JOIN usersites ON
mailboxes.user=usersites.user
MYSQL_CHPASS_CLAUSE UPDATE mailboxes SET clearpass='$(newpass)',
cryptpass='$(newpass_crypt)' WHERE account='$(local_port)@$(domain)'
Help appreciated.
Thanks,
-ben

Re: [courier-users] Courier Imap and Active Directory authentication.
Well, since you're using PAM, then yes, you'd need home directories. They could be tweaked to go to strange directories, though. It won't support multiple domains (as far as I know), but I could be wrong about that as the Winbindd stuff seems to be pretty flexible. You might try messing with usernames and stuff to get a virtual domains like feel going. Mostly, though I would say stick with LDAP if you're looking for virtual domains. -Ben David Gomillion wrote: I'm very interested in this, but unsure how to go about doing this. I know what Samba is, I have downloaded Samba 3, and read about winbindd. Does it require that all users have a home directory, or can I keep using virtual users in Courier? I guess if we're using PAM, then users' mail would have to be in /home/someusername/Maildir... Unless I tweaked the $HOME when creating accounts. How do you handle this? Will it support multiple domains?
