RE: [courier-users] 127.0.0.1 DNS-records
When going through my maillogs, I noticed various 546 Routing loops. Upon a closer look, it appears that several bulk-mail domains have DNS-(A/MX)-records that point to 127.0.0.1, which can cause the beforemetioned routing loop. Is this a fault from my part (error in my courier configuration)? If not, is there any way I can refuse mail from domains that resolve to 127.0.0.1 without breaking anything? Doesn't pointing to reserved, private, etc. IPs in (public) DNS-records violate an RFC? I'm not aware of anything that technically prohibits such an MX record. But they can be easily stopped. You must enable BOFHCHECKDNS, and put badmx 127.0.0.1 in the bofh file. The man pages give more information. Thanks! Can I use whildcard in that expression, e.g. badmx 127.0.0.* And what about those domains that have mx's point to 0.0.0.0? Are they legal too???

Re: [courier-users] makeuserdb error
All is OK, now. I think it was a problem with my configure launch. At the first installation I had used ./configure --with-mailuser=vmail --with-mailgroup=vmail. Now I've reinstalled (make clean and make distclean) the entire package (logging as user vmail): this time I've used: ./configure --with-authuserdb --with-db=db --with-mailuser=vmail --with-mailgroup=vmail, and everything is working well (no more makeuserdb errors). Thank you for your support, anyway.

The problem is that IO::InnerFile, which is used by MIME::Parser, does not return true on success. Old versions of MIME::Parser (up to 5.413) did not care about that. ( Detailed explanation: The MIME-tools and IO-stringy packages were initially written and maintained by the same author who now has not been maintaining his CPAN packages for over three years. MIME-tools has since been taken over by a new maintainer, and starting with version 5.414, MIME::Parser checks the result of the seek() call and thus always fails when working with IO::InnerFile. I filed a bug report on IO::InnerFile[1] a while ago, but nothing has happened so far. I am trying to resolve the issue with MIME-tools' new maintainer and IO-stringy's current maintainer. ) Now what all this essentially means is that either a version of MIME-tools/MIME::Parser = 5.413 must be installed on the system, or the installed version of IO::InnerFile must be patched manually until a fixed version is officially available. You can get the patch here[2].

With every new connection to the pop3 server the email clients download the full list of messages from the server with produce a lot of traffic but I only find top=0, retr=0 in the logfiles for theses connections? Is their any way to log these traffic? The clients are probably downloading the index of messages in the mailbox, and each message's UID.
