[courier-users] Virtual-Hosts
Hello, I have a Virtual-Webserver (apache/proftpd) with one Domain and 8 Hosts. Now I like to install for each host some mailinglists (courier-mlm) like: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Each host has its own dirctory like /home/host1/www /ftp /maillist/main /help ... How must I setup this ??? or ist it better to setup only one courier-mlm with 'lists.mydomain.net' and use somthing like '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' ??? The disavantage is, that if I like to split the virtual-Server in seperatly Servers I need a seperatly list-Server... And then, I need some mails on 'mydomain.net' Thanks for your Help Michelle -- Registered Linux-User #280138 with the Linux Counter, http://counter.li.org. --- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf ___ courier-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-users

Even when the courierd daemon is not running, any message received via ESMTP, or locally, are accepted and queued up. When 'courier start' runs, it will pick up all received messages, and push them out. Oh, I was thinking, it stops the whole courier-* There are two caveats: 1) When Courier is stopped, no mail delivery takes place. Even local mail is not delivered. Is there an attempt in future to change this ? 2) The 'courier stop' commands halts all delivery attempts in progress. Therefore you should not run courier stop when messages are being delivered. There's no permanent harm, though, but it's a rather rude thing to do. Right, thats very rude !!! Thies mean, the use of courier-mta is not recommended for Dial-Out. Other Solution ? Back to exim ?

Am 2003-10-02 14:44:40, schrieb Anand Buddhdev: Hello Anand, The additional benefit of doing it this way is that courier will not generate any deferral logs, since it will never have tried the deliveries in the first place! I find it easiest to create 2 files, called module.esmtp.on, and module.esmtp.off, with my required MAXDELS values in, and copy them to module.esmtp as required, followed by a courier restart. Hmmm, I need to adapt this to a cron-job... Having said all this, I personally much prefer exim for dial-up sites, because exim is simply so configurable. It even provides a handy option called queue_smtp, which dutifully queues all non-local deliveries until you issue exim -q to start a queue run and deliver email. I was hoping, courier-mta can do this too... I there a wishlist for courier-mta ??? I've recently setup a site where I use maildrop, courier-imap and sqwebmail for all the front-end user applications, and exim as the MTA. Everything works beautifully, and it needed no patching of any kind. Just works out of the box. So I think, if the courier-mta solution does not work FOR ME, I will switch back to exim v4.

Am 2003-10-03 13:29:10, schrieb Jeff Jansen: Sorry, I missed that part. I thought we were talking about the same machine. So you want all the mail to sit there until your cron job triggers courier to send it and which time your demand dialing will kick in and mail will get sent out? Yes. One time per hour is enough. I think you're going to have to resort to a script hack to make that work with courier. Anand's idea of changing the MAXDELS variable, restarting courier and then flushing the queue would work. In that case nothing would get sent until you ran the script. Then you'd have to reset the variable to 0 when you were done sending. I think I would use an iptables rule to stop courier sending out until the I wanted it to. So something like this: ;-) I was working on it ;-) == #!/bin/sh /sbin/iptables -D OUTPUT -p tcp -m tcp -o eth0 --dport 25 -j REJECT /usr/lib/courier/sbin/courier flush while (`sleep 60`); do PS=`/bin/ps -axww | egrep -c courieresmtp [0123456789] ` if [ $PS == 0 ]; then break fi done /sbin/iptables -I OUTPUT -p tcp -m tcp -o eth0 --dport 25 -j REJECT == Nice Script...

Didn't support maildir either (mbox) last time I used it so was a non-starter for me (I have my reasons). Outdated and crappy. You can not access your mailbox, if there are messages comeing in. BINC - Not a fan of courier if you ever look at the site. It works very well in many test cases I have used, however some stuff it is quite slow, the author himself acknowledges there is work to be done optimising some areas, definitely less features. Never tried My information of UW IMAP is a bit out of date, but last time I checked it didn't support nearly as many features as cyrus and courier. Right Cyrus strength is also its weakness, it likes to run as a CLOSED system, okay you can get exim to use LTMP to deliver to it but you are stick with local transport agent, imap and pop3 servers. Thist was my main problem... On the other hand courier allows you to use (Indeed I do!) use alternative pop3 (supporting maildir of course).

On any serious IMAP server, you need fast I/O subsystems. If you use NFS, take some time to tune it properly. My first courier-(mta,imap) was on a HP Vectra XA5 (P1 200MHZ with 192 MB of memory) but with a 3Ware 3w6507 and 3 x 40 GByte WD400. Around 180 $USER and realy fast. Theoretically the FS choosen should make a difference as well, try it out. On Linux, reiser was designed for the type of access that imap on maildir has, lot's of relatively small files. Try it out to see if it makes a difference. Note that tools for reiserfs do not completely integrate with some distros, expect some trouble (The fsck takes different flags than the normal flags, on RH/Fedora this means boottime fscks go all haywire, YMMV but I advice not to check your rieser partitions on boot).

I think I got what you mean, you basically want a single name for IMAP/POP3 connections, which then depending on the user will goto a IMAP/POP3 server in that users country where their mail box is stored. Right. If that is what you want, assume you are using courier (being in this list, is a safe assumption) you can use courier proxy. This will do :-) imap login as per normal, but after authentication will pass it onto another imap server transparently. (If using cyrus IMAP you can look at Only courier :-) It is best that this imap/pop3 proxy themselves be load balanced as ALL connections have to go through it (as no direct connections), best to have a pair of lb, you don't want to introduce a single point of failure. Ah, I was thinking, the connection AFTER authentication is done directly. Hmmm, so the courier-proxy must be realy performant if all traffic goes though... I was searchin for somethin like: smtp auth - mail.mydomain.tld smtp (from clients) - mail.mydomain.tld imap/pop3 auth - mail.mydomain.tld imap/pop3 - countrybox.mydomain.tld Hmmm, and what if I change the setup that smtp auth - mail.mydomain.tld smtp (from clients) - mail.mydomain.tld ($USER should use asmtp to send messages via mail.mydomain.tld) imap/pop3 auth - mbox-CID.mydomain.tld imap/pop3 - mbox-CID.mydomain.tld ($USER can connect directly to his/her country-mailbox) which mean, that incoming mails for e.g. [EMAIL PROTECTED] coming into mail.mydomain.tld are forwarded to the mailbox [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have read the documentation but not found the right part, how to forward $USER to a specific mbox-server.

The searches may be a limitation for sqwebmail, but because the sqwebmail system churns out customisable HTML, it would be very easy to tie in the power of shell based searches into sqwebmail, and have very powerful searches without the complexity of building SQL statements.

After this time a messages is sent to the sender. 2) If I connect my Laptop to the local network, the courier should flush its queue to the courier-mta on the laptop which should be configured as smarthost for the courier in the local network. Also it receive automaticaly messages from my ISP's MX. 3) Fetching the message from ISP accounts is no problem since it is done per user and will be pulled using a script directly into the users Maildir on the courier server. 4) If I come back from the Internet Cafe, the Latops courier-mta should flush its queue to the local courier... Maybe I will eliminate the script used in (3) and push the messages from fetchmail directly into the Laptops courier-mta The number (1) is working properly. So now I have some problems: A.a) I have problems on my laptop with the courier-mta accepting messages as smarthost from courier (local net). It should ACCEPT ALL messages and queue them for 10 days. A.b) I have (on my laptop) setup /etc/courier/esmtpauthclient with mx.freenet.de:587 user_name passwd But it seems not to work, even if I send a messages local from mutt. (currently I am using again ssmtp) B)How to configure my local courier that it use my laptop courier-mta exclusivly for ALL outgoing messages except my own domain (which is send directly over GSM/EDGE) as smarthost? C)What must I use for a string in my fetchmailrc that it use the courier-mta instead of procmail? The current string is: mda /usr/bin/procmail -d %T Thanks, Greetings and nice Day Michelle Konzack Systemadministrator Tamay Dogan Network Debian GNU/Linux Consultant -- Linux-User #280138 with the Linux Counter, http://counter.li.org/ # Debian GNU/Linux Consultant # Michelle Konzack Apt. 917 ICQ #328449886 50, rue de Soultz MSN LinuxMichi 0033/6/6192519367100 Strasbourg/France IRC #Debian (irc.icq.com) signature.pgp Description: Digital signature - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

[courier-users] How to enable port 587?
Hello, One of my ISP's, namely http://www.free.fr/ is now blocking Port 25 which mean, I can not more send messages directly to my german ISP's smtp-relay... The smtp.free.fr is no solution, since most ISP's rejecting such messages where Sender andsmtp- relay do not match. Fortunatly I know Port 587 and have configured my Laptop to use it, other wise you would not receive this message. So, this works now for mx.freenet.de but my own courier-mta is blocked. Question: How can I enable the Port 587 as fall back if some ISP are blocking Port 25?

Sending mail through the laptop should be simple. Just create
/etc/courier/esmtproutes, and put a default route to the laptop's IP.
You'll need to make sure that the laptop gets the same IP each time it's
connected, so configure it statically, or configure your DHCP service to
give it a specific IP address.
/etc/courier/esmtproutes:
:[192.168.1.5]
OK, this works and I have several 100 messages laying around
in the queue of the Laptop... :-/ It was 2fast4me :-)
See the esmtproutes section of the courier(8) man page.
Yeah, I know, but with this I have some trouble, since
1) esmtproutes is only for the receiving domain not for the sending
2) esmtpauthclient is for sending...
How can I configure it to send always to the configured esmtproutes
but NOT messages send from [EMAIL PROTECTED] which should
go over the GSM/EDGE?
Please note, that I have several E-Mails in the domain freenet.de
That's harder. Clarify how you want to have this happen. The courier
server can't give all of its messages to the laptop if the laptop is
also configured to give them all to the courier server.
Which mean, COURIER does not remember, which messages it has gotten
from my Server and should be posted to THE NET and the messgaes I
have fetched or gotten from the MX to the local server?
I was thinking courier know what to do, since:
If I write a message @HOME, my SERVER spool it and esmtproutes it to
the LAPTOP, it is clear, that the LAPTOP is searching for the mx.freenet.de
to send it out...
If I get a message over my MX, it should be clear, that the LAPTOP should
esmtproutes it to the SERVER in my local network...
Does this not work?
Maybe I will eliminate the script used in (3) and push the messages from
fetchmail directly into the Laptops courier-mta
So you're putting messages into Maildirs, now, but you want them on the
laptop? Wouldn't it be easier to just put them in the queue on the
courier server, and let it push them to the laptop?
You have missunderstood it...
See ASCII art above...
OK, so configure the courier server as a RELAYCLIENT. See
makesmtpaccess.
OK, there is already a default file which contain:
192.168 allow,RELAYCLIENT
A.b) I have (on my laptop) setup /etc/courier/esmtpauthclient with
mx.freenet.de:587 user_name passwd
But it seems not to work, even if I send a messages
local from mutt. (currently I am using again ssmtp)
I'm not sure if port specifications are valid there. Maybe someone else
does.
What *does* seem to happen on outbound deliveries?
It does not accept the 587 which I must use since the french
ISP www.free.fr and some others are blocking port 25.
There is something like no route or such...
B)How to configure my local courier that it use my laptop
courier-mta exclusivly for ALL outgoing messages except my
own domain (which is send directly over GSM/EDGE) as smarthost?
Use esmtproutes. You'll need a route for your own domain, and then
one for the default.
I need on my local SERVER (192.168.0.69)
:[192.168.0.75]
and on my LAPTOP (192.168.0.75)
freenet.de: mx.freenet.de,587

I've had a few of these too. I believe it's just a bot attempting an
automated attack as I've had them on try on sequential IP addresses.
They are usually also on zen.spamhaus.org. Pretty sure the aim is to
find correct login details so they can use your servers to spam the crap
out of everyone. Creating something in the smtp_auth_acl to temporarily
firewall these computers is on my TODO list.
I dealt with this exact situation recently. I have a ratelimit
implementation (below) that automatically begins dropping connections
to sites that repeatedly fail authentications.
It does require use of the quit and notquit ACL sections since the
auth ACL section apears to run prior to authentication, not after.
You also can't drop in the mail/rcpt/data ACLs since the session will
likely end after the failed auth attempt. Hence, the quit and notquit
ACLs are necessary.
In my connect ACL:
drop
log_message = RATELIMIT BADAUTH: $sender_rate / $sender_rate_period
message = Too many failed authentication attempts
ratelimit = 50 / 2h / noupdate / badauth:$sender_host_address
delay = 10s
In both the quit and notquit ACLs:
accept
condition = ${if eq{$authentication_failed}{1}}
ratelimit = 50 / 2h / badauth:$sender_host_address
Obviously you can change the 50 / 2h to any other period you want.
Just make sure all three acl entries use the same values. The quit and
notquit ACL entries are *both* needed since you don't know whether or
not the session will be terminated gracefully by the sender or not.
The only thing to watch out for here is locking on the ratelimit database.
Every single connection will require an open and lock of the ratelimit
database. If you have your db directory on ramdisk, or if you have a
low volume server, you should be fine though. To be honest, I haven't
noticed much of a problem even on a high volume server with db on
regular disks though.
Critiques or alternatives are welcomed.

You're seeing 200 hits a second! From the same ip addresses or different ones all the time? Today morning I was hit at ~08:00 CET arround 17 minutes from 86 different IP's and each IP had 30-80 hits per second. Which make in summary over 4.100.000 hits. My logfiles explode!!! 8 GByte in less then 17 minutes. 200 per second was the highest score for ON IP. The question is, WHICH server is this? A hijacked/owned PC on a ADSL or cable modem can not produce such traffic. I have only a Dual STM-1 (311 MBit) but the Server is a Sun BLade with 32 CPU's and 128 GByte of memory Since no single ip address should be hitting your server that often, you could rate limit incoming connections to your port 25 with iptables: iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 25 -m state --state NEW \ -m recent --set iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 25 -m state --state NEW \ -m recent --update --seconds 60 --hitcount 10 -j DROP If it sees more than '--hitcount' new connections in '--seconds' number of seconds, it will start dropping connections, until there are less than '--hitcount' new connections in '--seconds' number of seconds. This doesn't know whether connections are authenticated or not, obviously. It just keeps track of how often new connections come in from individual ip addresses and drops any that are over the limit. And this is my problem. Now imagine the server support 17000 users and the switch on there computers between 08:00 and 09:00... iptables dos unfortunatly not work for such scenario.

[courier-users] Bizzar cronlogs from courier-mta
30 07:25:15
2007, wakeup time=Fri Nov 30 07:25:15 2007, queuedelivering=0, inprogress=0
What can this be?
Can it bem that courier-mta and/or cron (in this combination)
can not send mesages biger then 64 kByte?
I have used a small sendmail wraper of:
8--
#!/bin/bash
DATE=$(date +%s)
echo $* /tmp/sendmail-${DATE}.log
echo/tmp/sendmail-${DATE}.log
cat /tmp/sendmail-${DATE}.log
8--
the file show me an error in my script tdmailfilter which produced
outputs between 60 and 500 kByte of error messages.
Thanks, Greetings and nice Day

[courier-users] Rewrite (root|mailer-daemon|postmaster|cron)@xxxx to another E-Mail
Hello, now I have several 100 Servers servers and workstatons (Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 Etch) under my control and use courier-mta on all of this computers. What I have done is, create one E-Mail for each of those computers and now I want to rewrite the mails root mailer-daemon postmaster cron (exactly all with UID =1000) from e.g. (my workstation) michelle1.private.somedomain.tld to [EMAIL PROTECTED] How can I do this with courier-mta? Note: I have tried to configure admin.somedomain.tld to accept all messages from *somedomain.tld but was running into troubles since I use automated mail processing and the scripts going too complex with around 480 different FQDN's. So the new E-Mail-Scheme reflect the HOST where it come from and the SUBNET plus an extension that it is from my own network.

[courier-users] Same problem here with courier-mta [WAS: FW by [EMAIL PROTECTED] : Re: DDOS, Dictionary Attack... not sure what it is...]
Hello *, from the spamassassin list I have gotten this: - Forwarded message from Bookworm [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Date: Mon, 31 Dec 2007 13:51:40 -0600 From: Bookworm [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: DDOS, Dictionary Attack... not sure what it is... Mike Cisar wrote: Hi All, A bit off topic since the users are all unknown so the traffic never makes it to my spamassassin. But I am hoping that someone here may have seen the same thing and have a solution for making the problem go-away :-) I'm not sure whether it's supposed to be a DDOS attack, a dictionary attack, bunch-o-bots or what. Since about the 26th of Dec I've had one particular mailserver that has been dealing with a constant stream of crap... all emails to unknown users, all of the email addresses seem consistent (either 3 'syllables'... an uppercased 'syllable', a lowercased 'syllable' and another uppercased 'syllable'... or 2 uppercased 'syllables'). They don't seem to be coming from any consistent IP address (or region). Problem is of course that the mailserver's connections get tied up processing rejecting this crap (and of course it's chewing up my transfer allocation bit by tiny bit). The addresses are similar to these... IgnaciogalvestonBriggs@ DallasexhibitionAlvarado@ ReginaldFleming@ Even tried yanking the IP address off of the server over the holidays in the hope that whatever it was would just give up. No such luck, within a minute of reactivating the IP to the server this morning the traffic was back to full flow. I don't know that it will really help, but I know that on the qmail servers that I've been building, John Simpson wrote a patch that looks for that. It's called validrcptto. It looks for users existing on the system before accepting any emails (using a cdb file format), and rejects those instantly that don't exist.For situations like yours, it has a 'strikes' rule that you can enable. That is, if a specific IP address tries sending to bad users more than X number of times, it then blocks that IP address from connecting at all for a set period of time. Whatever your MTA might be, there may be similar functionality that you can build into the SMTPD process, or at least, that you can put in FRONT of the SMTPD process. Good luck with it! - End forwarded message - My @home mailserver is by several 100.000 messages per day but in a very short time (2-5 times arround 30-120 minutes) and every time my server is hit, they are arround 2000 different IP's. It seems like a botnet... courier-mta does reject all of this crap but the System- and CPU-Load are nearly at 100%. and since courier and my SDSL can not handel this mass of crap my MX is hit to and continue sending this crap to me constantly. Is there a way to reject the messages with much more less resources? Please note, that this Mailserver is my @home IMAP server and it do automated mailprocessing for arround 40.000 messages per day and now they are delayed by arround 2 weeks currently.

[courier-users] Best solution for coexistence of maildrop and procmail
Hello, I am using fetchmail with procmail since I am using Linux (over 9 years now) and for many years I have switched to use courier while continuing procmail. Now I have some $USER which like to use maildrop instead of procmail where my php5 Intranet Web-Interface support currently only procmail. What is the best practize for a coexistence of procmail and maildrop? Note: Since I need to recode the Web-Admin-Part for procmail-maildrop I have gotten some ideas from another thread for some days... :-) Need to say, that standard rules (procmail) can entirely setup from the webinterface where complex killer recipes can be setup manualy and then they are included using INCLUDERC. What about maildrop?
