Re: SMTP Port

[Kiran]

Hi,
I started qmail-smtpd using "sh -cf  '/var/qmail/rc &' " and it did show me
all the 4 process that are started with it. I am able to send mails remotely
but when i telnet to port 25 , it says unable to connect. This means that
qmail is running on a different port which i like to change over to 25. Is
there a place where this can be done. I remember doing something of this
sort while i was installing using qmail rpms. Now i was trying to installing
using the tar balls.
Any pointers.
Thanks in Advance

Kiran

Setup Problem & Life With Qmail

[Jeff Lacy]

Hello everyone,
 
I am new to qmail, so please forgive my 
ignorance.  I tried to install qmail using life with qmail under RH7.  
When I run /etc/rd.d/init.d/qmail, it seems to start okay.  Every 10 
seconds something accesses the disk.  I think it is multilog.  I 
probably have a little typo in one of the /var/qmail/supervise run files.  
I looked, but I can't see it.  Could someone please help me?  Pleae 
reply to my email address, [EMAIL PROTECTED].  
Thanks.

I backup all user data and config data directly to another hard
drive, and also to another one or two systems on the network (also hard
drive). I do not trust tape, and I can keep 7 days worth of backups ready
for immediate use.

Only development stuff needs to be backed up for longer term
storage (i.e CD-RW).

i set up a domain as a catchall that should forward mail to a remote 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:

in .qmail i put &[EMAIL PROTECTED]

in assign is the usual +domain-:etc, etc

for some reason, it shows up in the log, delivers successfully, but it 
never shows up in my remote box, or anywhere else for that matter

where is this mystery mail going?

There is no need to HUP qmail-send unless virtualdomains or locals has 
changed.  You can add and remove users from users/assign at will 
without restarting anything.  The only thing that needs to be done is 
create the new cdb with qmail-newu.

In your .qmail file, you can specify either a Maildir or a traditional
Unix mailbox (mbox) where qmail should deliver the mail. If you write
./Maildir/, qmail assumes that it should deliver to a Maildir. If you
write ./Maildir (without the trailing slash), qmail assumes you mean a
mailbox.

Check you .qmail file for the trailing slash and "man dot-qmail" for
more information.

short msg when online

[QBA]

Hi,

I'd like to send a short message to my friend's mail account
whenever I'm online (I got dynamic access to net). I know how to
send all my mail when pppd starts but have no idea how to
mail everytime one and the same message without editing it in mutt
earlier. I wanna do it 'cause my friend gets sms everytime he got
new mail on his account. And when he will know that I'm online
we'd be able to chat to each other without any problems.
Thanks for all tips in advance,

QBA

I use maildrop w/ vpopmail, but I have not been using quotas.  I will be
implementing them soon.

And to make vpop bounce messages to non-existent accounts, just change
your .qmail-default for the domain to read:

| /var/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' bounce-no-mailbox

Without seeing the logs we'd be guessing. You can find the exact peak concurrency
from the logs (why use an inaccurate ps for this?). You can see if qmail-remotes
are exiting abnormally from the logs.

Check your logs first. RAMdisk is unlikely to affect your system reaching

Maximum files perhaps?  Or disk I/O bandwidth is very likely.  What kind
of disk is /var/qmail/queue on?  RPM, interface, filesystem, etc.

Sqwebmail virtual server patch

Ops, wrong subject...

Hi guys,

I've done a simple patch to sqwebmail so users in virtual domains
doesn't need to type their complete email address for login.
The patch suppose access webmail with the URL http://webmail.domain.com

Here users we're used to http://www.domain.com/webmail so I also did a very
simple CGI to redirect users to webmail.domain.com
I'm sending them attached, sorry for that, but just some bytes.

No, the best you can do is catch all xy addresses and redirect them to

Hello people,

It's good to hear this talk among such users of qmail! I've been trying
Mr. Sam's code for some time now and we're using it alongside vpopmail
in our 5k virtualusers server. It's great.

I have not used the complete MTA also (maybe I'll try it when it get
1.0).

But, I have one question:
Do you use maildrop with vpopmail? Could you get the quota system to
work on it? I had some problens on this and to make it able to bounce
msgs to non-existent accounts.

Having something like this as the first line of your .qmail-default file
might do the trick:

|(cat >/dev/null; echo "$EXT2") | grep -q '^\d\d\d\d$' || exit 100

Actually, I'm not sure offhand if you can aggregate commands like that in
a .qmail file; you may have to put it into a script and call the script from
the .qmail file if this isn't allowed.

Permissions of Alias Files

[Anthony Abby]

what permissions should be set on alias files?  Particularly for alias files
associated with listservs.  I'm running Listar with QMail and I'm coming
across some troubling happenings, wondering if it has something to do with
permissions of alias files.  If I send in a subscription request to one of
my mailing lists ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) I can see in
maillog that the mail hits qmail and is locally delivered.  I then jump over
the Listar and look in my cookies file and see that Listar assigned a cookie
to the request but from there I lose track of what happened.  I don't see
any remote delivery line in maillog.  There doesn't seem to be a problem
when emailing a list.  As long as you're a subscriber email gets processed
and sent out without problem.  But list commands do seem to disappear
somewhere.

Can someone give me an idea of how I might go about troubleshooting this
problem?
Anthony

There isn't a "spanish" sqwebmail version, and so, i have to compile english

Russ, where do you get "owner"? Wouldn't the envelope sender be set to
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]"? Remember, this prepend is handled by qmail-send
before qmail-local ever gets to the .qmail file. Am I missing something?

First, don't restart qmail when you add new users. It's completely
unnecessary.

What's the user's name?

That *is* an interesting situation.

Speaking of qmail updates, have there been any grumblings from DJB in
the last decade or so about actually releasing a new version?

wildcards in assign config file question

Hi!

I'm trying to get all mail in the form xy@maydomain.com to be handled
by a .qmail-default file.
I've managed to get all mails starting with xy to be processed by that same
.qmail-default, but imagine I would only want to catch the mails starting with
xy followed by 4 digits! would that be possible with the assign file? even a
'?' wildcard would do!

Thanks

What format is your mailbox? Maildir or mbox? If it's mbox, set the
MAIL environment variable to its absolute path, or configure pine to
look in the right place. If it's maildir, you'll need to install a
maildir-aware pine or use mutt.

Most likely, you're looking in the wrong place. But first, you should
look at the qmail-send logs in /var/log/qmail. It's possible that the
message was deferred for some reason. If not, you need to tell us what 
you have in /var/qmail/control/defaultdelivery, ~user/.qmail, and how

Create a virtualdomain (say, example.com:example), and create a -owner
file (say, ~example/.qmail-foo-owner).  Send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
The envelope sender gets set to [EMAIL PROTECTED]  If
that mail bounces, its delivery is controlled by

Hi,

 

I have setup qmail 1.03 on a Red Hat Linux 6.1 machine so that i can use the
EZMLM for my mailing lists. There were one or two issues that i was not able
to understand. 

 

1. I am not able to telnet to port 25,though i am able to send mails. I
belive this can be configured in one of the files.

 

2. I want it to support other domains too. But the virtualdomains file does
not exist under the control directory. Is this created automatically or can
we create the same. Similar for Concurrencyremote.

 

3. When i receive the mail, how do i read it. I admit i have gone through
all that the given but still can't make out of it. I used to use pine for
reading the mails.

 

Pardon me if some of the question look stupid, but i am just trying to get a

Another approach...

There is a webmin module for qmail that is about 50% complete but hasn't
been
updated. I like it but it is too incomplete... 

Persoanlly I don't like running a web server on a mail server.

SMTP Port

[Kiran]

Hi,
 
I have setup qmail 1.03 on a Red Hat Linux 6.1 
machine so that i can use the EZMLM for my mailing lists. There were one or two 
issues that i was not able to understand. 
 
1. I am not able to telnet to port 25,though i am 
able to send mails. I belive this can be configured in one of the 
files.
 
2. I want it to support other domains too. But the 
virtualdomains file does not exist under the control directory. Is this created 
automatically or can we create the same. Similar for 
Concurrencyremote.
 
3. When i receive the mail, how do i read it. I 
admit i have gone through all that the given but still can't make out of it. I 
used to use pine for reading the mails.
 
Pardon me if some of the question look stupid, but 
i am just trying to get a hang of it.
 
Thanks in Advance
 
Regards
Kiran

Definitive solution for adding X-EnvelopeTo

[Tristan Graham]

Hi,

There are a number of postings pertaining to the insertion of an 
X-EnvelopeTo header on all incoming mails, but there doesn't seem to be a 
terribly useful solution to the problem as far as I can see. The situation 
is that the envelope must be added to all mail so as to include the 
original "To" address in the envelope after a mail is forwarded in order to 
ensure compatibility with all of our existing mail users. I have played 
around a little with some ideas, but to no avail.

Could someone please point me in the right direction.

Many thanks in advance,

Tristan Graham.

When I make qmail and other qmail related programs I get this error:

maildirwatch.c: In function `main':
maildirwatch.c:62: warning: return type of `main' is not `int'

this happens on most, if not all .c files.

Anybody know how I can fix this? What effects this have?

I'm running a Red Hat Linux release 6.2 (Zoot)
Kernel 2.2.16-3 on an i686

I 'm having big troubles getting qmail to work and are wondering if this is
the problem. I would appreciate promt replys since the server now is
without email capabilities ...

Thanks in advance,
-Stian

This is quite normal! That is because the main Function has Return Type void.

These messages seems to be normal when compiling on RHL.

Could you be more specific?
At what point in the INSTALL instructions does things stop working?

candreol
in a remote mailbox candreol that is on another computer (in my case a

Ok thanks for help about aliases.
Yet, I've got a new problem ...
 
I created some users recently with good passwords, 
with good directories
 e.g. >   ~user/.qmail > 
./Maildir (like others users for 
whom it works)
        
    and a maildirmake Maildir  
(too)
 a qmail restart
 
And when i send them mails, qmail says me there's 
no mailbox,
Why ???
 
Thanks

In fact seems to be your checkpassword!
I'm using  http://www.whirlycott.com/phil/checkpoppasswd.c which you have to
compile with gcc -o checkpassword checkpoppasswd.c -lcrypt

To generate a Password use the following Perl Script...

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
print "Please enter a Word you wanna use as POP3 Password: ";
$pass=; chomp($pass);
print "Now enter a 2 Letter Salt Value: ";
$salt=; chomp($salt);
print "Generated Password is: "; print crypt($pass, $salt);
print "\n";

No.

POP was not meant to be used that way. What may happen is that one
qmail-pop3d returns an error if another deletes a file that was there
when the first one started.

The POP server does need to "lock" the mailbox to prevent newly
delivered messages to mess it up while the POP server is active,
however. For qmail, the Maildir storage method prevents this from
happening so there is no need for locks.

RE: Return receipt

[Daniel POGAC]

So this is not what i want... I know that email client when you open new
mail gives you a request if you want or not to send notification. But that
is not our sulution.
This request must send remote SMTP server automaticaly. Not client
software...

Have you any solution for this???

I know there is in qmail qreceipt... Do anyone know what is it and how i can
use it ???

I don't thik the problem is in qmail. I tryed this:
send two messages from Netscape 4.7 with Return Receipt checked thgrow my
qmail.
The first message I read with Outlook Express and it did not ask me to send
receipt, althow in the header there was line
Disposition-Notification-To: Biliana Galabova <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
The other messages I read with Netscape and it asked me if I want to send
receipt - everithyng fine.
So I think this is MUA problem.
