I thought it was a problem with Mail.app 2.0's Import function, so I deleted the account and recreated it manually.

Re: [courier-users] Both local and virtual users in the same domain namespaces
Like Sam said, you can't run a domain in both hosted and locals. However, I wanted something similar so here's what I do: I list domain.com in hosteddomains and use userdb to create all my accounts, user1, user2, etc. I list mail.domain.com in locals and have my local users in /etc/passwd, user1, user2, etc. The trick is to set the homedir, uid and gid of the users in userdb (or whatever your auth system is) to be the same as what it is in /etc/passwd. You really have two mail accounts this way, but they end up in the same mailbox. Depending upon how your auth is set up it also probably means setting two passwords. I can now pick whether new accounts are effectively virtual or local. On Jul 25, 2004, at 11:32 AM, Andrei Iordache wrote: Hello list, It is a while now since I'm trying to figure out how to have both local and virtual users in the same domain namespaces.

But most of the users are NOT local and I cannot seem to figure out how to setup courier this so it will accept mail for [EMAIL PROTECTED] AND [EMAIL PROTECTED] (and the same for domain-2, domain-3... domain-6)in the same time. I added all 6 domains to esmtpacceptmailfor.dir and run makeacceptmailfor. Now, If I add the 6 domains to locals, I can only receive mail for the local users. If on the other hand I put them in hosteddomains (and run makehosteddomains and restart courier, just to be sure), I cannot receive mail for local users anymore. I cannot have the 6 domains both in locals and hosteddomains because locals take precedence and hosteddomains is never checked. Right ? I use authdaemonrc, with authcustom, authcram, authuserdb and authpam modules. It is working correctly. The local users are in /etc/passwd. The virtual users are in the userdb file, I run makeuserdb whenever I change that file (I even restart courier), and the e-mail is received correctly as long as I have the domains listed in hosteddomains (but not in locals). But how can I make that bot are checked ? Or something ? Because I am trying NOT to have to create domains of the type virtual.domain1.tld for the virtual users, they will not be in the same namespace as the local users.

Re: [courier-users] Courier not handling cases propperly?
I remember reading somewhere in the SMTP RFC about the fact that e-mail addresses are to be case-insensitive. domains yes, but everything before the @ can be case sensitive. Courier is case sensitive unless you tell it to not be like so: touch /etc/courier/locallowercase If you do that, courier will drop all incoming messages to lower case so you need to make sure that none of your accounts have upper case letters in them, or else you'll get a 550 again. --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.

Re: [courier-users] SMTP authentication
allowing relay is the same as connect without auth. An auth'd user is granted the ability to relay, so allowing an IP to relay is effectively the same. Ok, except that I don't want this ip to be able to relay. I want my users to connect to my Courier box to send email via authenticated smtp. Unauthenticated users or Internet MTAs should not be allowed to connect. General email from the Internet comes through a filtering server. This server needs to be able to deliver to the Courier box, but it is unable to authenticate itself. So... - The filtering server should be able to connect without authentication - The filtering server should NOT be able to relay - Everyone else should be required to authenticate It sounds like the mail from the filtering server will all be destined for your user server, so you should not need any special setup. Courier will accept mail for addresses that it is configured to accept mail for. Just don't put your user server in DNS as an MX, that's easy. The filtering server will have to be configured to accept mail for your domains so that it can filter the messages and then forward the good messages onto your user server. Is this where you need help? /etc/courier/smtpaccess/ should at this point only allow 127.0.0.1 to relay, just so your scripts and whatnot can mail you, etc. --- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.

Re: [courier-users] Logs
Any problems that you are having with postfix should probably be directed at the postfix list. Courier IMAP is not involved at the point that you are having trouble. On Nov 20, 2003, at 8:16 AM, Curtis Vaughan wrote: I am using Courier IMAP. I had been looking at my maillogs, but now I get it. I just wasn't looking for the right information. So for example I see: A successful send by myself: Nov 20 08:11:57 atlantica postfix/nqmgr[22081]: 1FB8910042: from=[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, size=1407, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Nov 20 08:11:57 atlantica postfix/smtp[9697]: 1FB8910042: to=[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, relay=mail.npc-usa.com[10.0.1.1], delay=0, status=sent (250 Requested mail action okay, completed) But for the user I am trying to troubleshoot, I see only one entry for example: Nov 20 00:16:10 atlantica postfix/nqmgr[22081]: 79B0E10042: from=[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, size=14983, nrcpt=1 (queue active) It is not followed by a to=, relay=. Which tells me that his problem is still present. That is, he tries to send but the server never permits him to send anything. Unfortunately, I don't know what kind of an error he's getting. Is there no way to troubleshoot at my end without information from him?

Re: [courier-users] Re: Logging exact SMTP dialog?
Since esmptd talks to couriertcpd through stdin/stdout, could you not just shim in a logging layer of some sort? Heck, I could probably write a script to do it.

Re: [courier-users] tcpdopts
Lyd, I can't speak for the rest of the people here, but I find that turning both of those on dramatically speeds up the IMAP server. No one uses identd anymore anyway. If you plan on doing anything with the logs that requires DNS names rather than IPs, then you should leave out the -nodnslookup. Otherwise, put em both in. Just make sure that you *add* these options to the line, rather than replacing the line.

edit the imapd config file in your courier configuration directory (/etc/courier/ or /usr/lib/courier/etc/) and set the debug level: DEBUG_LOGIN=1 Turn this on, and you'll get some more info about what's going on in the logs.
