I do something like this with Imail and ASSP.  There is a copy-all the

Re: [IMail Forum] Webmail timeouts...

Heimir Eidskrem wrote:
 That assumes that you have a word processor available.
 Many of our clients dont have that on their computers.
 If you use a public computer like in a hotel, etc you might not find
 it either.

 Telling people to use a word processor or even notepad does not go
 over really well.
 Telling them to use a different browser since Imail is all screwed up
 with their current browser does not go over well either.

I can grant all of that, but I must hasten to note that (a) one must set
the time-out limit somewhere and (b) no matter what limit one chooses,
someone will exceed it.  What is worse, the higher the time-out limit,
the less likely a user will be able to reproduce a lost message.  Given
that, it only seems reasonable to make it clear what the time-out limit
is and to provide some sort of work-around in the reasonable expectation
that the limit is not sufficient.

The set up here is with a small university campus, so have to balance a
fairly high number of connections with some important users who are
unacquainted with brevity.  I have set the idle time-out to 60 minutes
and as a consequence have occasionally run up against the session
limits.  Still, even with that sort of time-out, there have been cases
where individuals have lost their work because of the idle time-out
restriction.  At this point, however, it would seem that increasing the
time-out will not resolve the issue and will only increase the problem
with session  limits.

I should also apologize for having misinterpreted the original query.  I
had assumed that the higher time-out that Chuck had assigned had taken
hold.  Consequently, I did not think to suggest that the web messaging
service would need to be restarted.  I also did not think of the using
the save feature in WebMail as an alternative to a word processor.

Re: [IMail Forum] Webmail timeouts...

2007-05-08 Thread Jimm Wetherbee
Dan,

Good point.  In a very different context, our web-based library catalogs
are set to time-out but a member of the users' group (not the vendor
itself) developed a pop-up window (there is also a CSS version) stating
that the session was about to end and would the user like to continue or
start a new one.  If the user doesn't respond, the window and the
session expire.  On the face of things, it doesn't look like an
enhancement that would require a major rewrite.  Still, that is not what
we have now.

--jimm
 The thing is, the message is in the POST DATA of the browser when it gets to
 IMail. It is not lost until the Web Service Application Code discards it.
 The application developer needs to take the data, save it in some way,
 request a new logon and if successful within a few minutes, apply the POST
 DATA. Simply abandoning the session is some very lazy code. The UI designers
 should have taken this into account. Nobody minds reentering their password
 after 60 minutes, but reentering 60 minutes of text is ridiculous.

Re: [IMail Forum] Webmail timeouts...

2007-05-07 Thread Jimm Wetherbee
Chuck,

The easiest work-around is to compose a long message on a word processor
and then copy and paste missive into the message (after just logging on,
of course).  It's a kludge to be sure, but there is only so long you can
make the time out before you then have to increase the maximum number of
concurrent sessions.

[IMail Forum] 2006.2 Web Client and SMTP Proxy

2007-05-01 Thread Jimm Wetherbee
We're using IMail (8.2) with ASSP.  We have been happy with the
combination but have noticed that the web client appears to bypass the
ASSP proxy when sending mail.  This would not be a problem, save that it
means that our users are not able to whitelist these addresses
automatically.  I didn't see anything in the Knowledge Base that might
help (though I may have well missed something) but am wondering (a)
whether one can force the webclient to send to ASSP rather than directly
to SMTP and whether the  web client on 2006.2 behaves the same way.

Re: [IMail Forum] 2006.2 Web Client and SMTP Proxy

2007-05-01 Thread Jimm Wetherbee
John,

I think Doug has done a better job than I will.  ASSP is an SMTP proxy. 
As such it doesn't do any real delivery.  Because I have ASSP on the
same machine as IMail, ASSP is listing on port 25 and delivering to
IMail (SMTP) on port 125 (I've adjusted the SMTP on IMail to listen to
that port instead).

Doug is suggesting a two-box solution where IMail relays to a second
SMTP server.  This second server would have the ASSP proxy.

--jimm

John T (lists) wrote:
 Please explain exactly how ASSP works? 

 Declude, MXGaurd and I am sure there are some others work perfectly fine
 with the current version.

 If what you said is true, ASSP sounds more like a incoming gateway rather
 than a actual product that works with Imail via the 3rd party hand off in
 the SMTPD32 service.

 You are probably configured to use DNS to deliver from Imail;

 Client=ASSP listen port=Imail=Internet

 So when the clients use the webmail they bypass ASSP.  This has been a
 problem with this configuration with all versions of Imail, including
 the
 recent version.

 You need to add an SMTP service for delivery and use it from ASSP and
 have
 Imail deliver through a gateway, ASSP.

 Client=Imail (web or SMTP)=ASSP relay port=ASSP relay host=MS SMTP
 (set
 up for outgoing delivery only and no access to it from the
 Internet)=Internet

 You can also use the free hMailserver for the delivery service but I
 prefer
 to use it as an incoming SMTP AV gateway.

Unfortunately, much of the image-only spam that I have encountered does
not meet that criterion.  Very often I encounter spam where the only image
is visible, but the text is hidden by matching the font with the background
and similar techniques.  There usually isn't much text and what there is
would not run afoul the statistical filtering and is not suitable to be

Scott,

 [--jimm replies] 

If I may chime in on this thread; I should like to get some advice.  Right
now I teach the statistical filter which words are good by extracting the
false positives and running those against the antispamseeder.  How would one
catch the true negatives as well?  I have thought about copying all incoming
messages, but have thought that would also copy the stuff I intend to
quarantine.

[IMail Forum] Question about the Externalizer

2004-10-29 Thread Jimm Wetherbee
Hello,

I am trying to play with the Externalizer and cannot even get started.
After unpacking it, I tried to run it but could not.  The readme file says
something about moving the hksikey.bin file to the externalizer directory,
but that file never came with the download.  Any suggestions?

Thx,

RE: [IMail Forum] 6GB file generated!

2004-09-15 Thread Jimm Wetherbee
Title: Nachricht








Ive also seen this twice on 8.12 and
only with Outlook and its Junk e-mail box.  It was amazing how fast the file would
grow.  First time it crashed SMTP because
the file filled the hard drive (the quota is ignored as has been noted earlier).
 Ended up stopping the IMAP service in
order to delete the file the second time before it got out of hand.



We have tried to convince Outlook users
to keep the Personal Folders off the server, it tends to avoid headaches.  For instance, Outlook occasionally insists on
placing an Inbox folder on the server.  The
result is that the user can no longer see her incoming messages because mail
doesnt go to an inbox folder but to main.mbx.

I've had the same thing. It's being caused
by Junk E-mail Folders of Outlook 2003, and in my case it seemed to be caused
by IMAP trying to make the folder and add the Junkmail and while it was doing
that it somehow got disconnected (but IMail continues to create the file). It
also happened once while someone was accessing an IMAP folder and someone else
was using POP on the same account...for me it happened with a previous version
of IMail 8.1x, so it's not 8.13 specifically...

Nika.

I added this domain yesterday to url-blacklist.txt, remotely. Got an email

@t-online.de

I believe the IMail v8 anti-spam URL blacklist only looks at HTML links in 
the body of HTML-encoded E-mails, and doesn't check the return 
address.  
[-] Related to this is that the file will not catch plain-text messages
with fully qualified URLs (e.g., http://www.domain.com).  The problem is
compounded by the fact the Outlook treats such strings as hyperlinks, even
in plain text.

Are you using DHCP?  If so, have you tried to use:

ipconfig -flushdns

from the command prompt on your machine.

No on the hosts file, same result with different DNS - it all resolves to
the same IP address.  Just waiting to here form them.  I can hit that server
even if I telnet to it via 80.  How odd is that?

RE: [IMail Forum] IMail SMTP Server service terminated unexpected ly

2004-04-22 Thread Jimm Wetherbee
We seem to be experiencing something similar with 8.10 H2 and it may be that
we applied the MS Hotfix in question before this installation.  Which hotfix
might be the problem and which OS does it apply to.  Our mail server is
running NT 4 SP6a.

I should add that in our case, given enough time, every IMail service
eventually halts and the server itself becomes generally unresponsive,
taking forever to even shutdown.  The unresponsiveness is such that Dr.
Watson almost never is able to write anything.

I don't think it is an IMail problem. We have been experiencing this on one
of our web servers for the last week or so. I think perhaps it is one of the
latest MS hotfixes.
