Re: [courier-users] Courier not handling cases propperly?

2004-03-11 Thread Matthew Wilson 
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.

[courier-users] Courier not handling cases propperly?

2004-03-10 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
Hi all. I believe I may have found a possible bug in either authpwd or
authshadow. Initially, the mail account created was called Kayla. When I
mailed [EMAIL PROTECTED] from another machine, I got the following in
syslog: Mar 10 17:20:40 igueths courieresmtpd:
error,relay=:::209.225.28.218,from=[EMAIL PROTECTED],to=kay
[EMAIL PROTECTED]: 550 User unknown.

I remember reading somewhere in the SMTP RFC about the fact that e-mail
addresses are to be case-insensitive. My theory as to the cause of this
problem is that authpwd and/or authshadow is returning an error code 1, and
in this case esmtpd then returns the 550 to the relaying server. The only
workaround for this annoying problem I have been able to find is switching
the user name from Kayla to kayla, but I shouldn't have to do that. Has
anyone else had the same and/or similar problem? Has anyone been able to
get Courier to propperly handle case-insensitivity? Could my problem have
to do with the fact that I am using authpwd/authshadow, and that the fix
would be moving to authuserdb? Thanks!
