FYI: Windows is better
Subject: Windows vs Unix From:Charles Booher h-64-105-140-243.lnoclli.covad.net Tue Jul 3 12:25:05 My second computer was a VA Linux box. I tried to run SCO Unix on my first computer but that did not work out for a number of reasons. When Windows 3.0 was young I was working on various applications for Sun, HP, Silicon Graphics and all those other soon to be defunct Unix Workstation vendors. I was one of the first guys to write a P.O. for Rack mounted Linux boxes, and I have done a lot of developement with X-Windows, Motif, GNU, and all the GNU Toys. I started learning Windows 3.0 and worked my way through all the other MS developement tool kits starting with the C/C++ 7.0 compiler and Borland Compilers. I have been working in both Unix and Windows for the Last 10 years. Windows is a better software system. Linux is free and the only use I have had for it in the last four years was to set up a cheap router using an obsolete scrap computer. Unix does very little that is usefull to the average computer user. Unix is not a new technology. Linux is just a free rewrite of the Unix system. Where are the application packages for Linux? They are mostly a pile of student written science fair experiments scattered on a large number of obscure web site. So you can download the source to LaTex. Who cares? People buy computers to run applications. They don't buy computers to run compilers, although Microsoft does make better compilers for x86 than GNU. MSDN is a better development environment than GNU, Better software tools create better software. People don't care how well an operating system works if there are no useful applications. So how is Richard Stallman doing with his Hurd Operating system? The entire GNU-Linux system is nothing more than a science fair experiment run by various techno-geeks. As a science fair experiment GNU-Linux has its uses. I have looked very deeply into both systems and Microsoft has the better system. Regards, Charles

Re: Bare linefeeds not accepted by Qmail?
I am also interested in this.so please email me also on / off list. thanks brendan From: "Cameron Childress" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Thu, 8 Mar 2001 10:19:48 -0500 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Bare linefeeds not accepted by Qmail? Hello list! Just joined the list, and am looking to clear something up here. Let me start by saying that I am not a Qmail admin, and am not familiar with the internals of Qmail, so be gentle if my question seems malformed. After scouring the list archives for some time today I haven't found quite the answer I need. I'm having a problem similar to one described by the following thread: http://www.ornl.gov/its/archives/mailing-lists/qmail/2000/05/msg01580.html I'm in communications with a fairly well established/recognized software company who's product generates email whose lines end in bare linefeeds. Clearly, from my reading in the archives, there is some argument as to whether or not this actually violates RFC822 or not, but I need to either convince the software company to change it's product, or convince my ISP to make some sort of change to their Qmail implementation. Till then, I am not able to send outgoing mail through my ISP's mailserver (which is a pretty significant problem for me). I'm still in discussions/arguments with the software company, who apparently uses Netscape's Messaging library to support their SMTP operations, to change their product so that it does not generate bare LFs. I'm not sure what progress I'm going to make with that, but any advice would be appreciated. On the other hand, I am going to take a stab at convincing my ISP to change their Qmail implementation so that it will accept bare LFs and convert them into CRLFs. I have found reference to a solution in the list archives (link below), but unfortunately, being completely unfamiliar with Qmail's internals, I am not going to be able to clearly communicate the solution to the engineers at my ISP based on this posting. What I am searching for is something similar to a Knowledge Base or FAQ article which would either assist me in understanding the changes which should be made, or that I could simply point the engineers at my ISP to. Without that, I am not sure that I will be able to effectively communicate the problem/solution. Bare LF workaround: http://www.ornl.gov/its/archives/mailing-lists/qmail/1997/07/msg00957.html I would appreciate any suggestions on/offlist.

I specialize my thanks to Mr. Edward J. Allen, who gave me excellent courage and helped me out to understand the mystries of qmail..Thank you very much Edward! By the way, this e-mail is sent throughmy qmail server.. the reply address still not working as it will take up to 24 hours to have my qmail.hahlabs.com registered in the internet.

Well, I am not trying to say I am an expert .. but at least I know how to get this working.. Thanks all. regards, Hatem
letter rip pro and qmail
Has anyone on the list had any problems getting qmail to accept mail deliveries from someone using letter rip pro? I have a user who is using letter rip, but his session is "unexpectedly closed" every time when trying to send mail to my server. The domain he is trying to send to is hosted on my mail machine, and has no problems receiving mail from any other source. Any ideas? Brendan
delay in connecting
My qmail server seems to hang for about 30 seconds when an outbound smtp connection is made to it on port 25 Once the short delay is over, the server is very quick in sending out the mail. What could be causing this hang? I don't have the server set to do reverse resolution as far as I can tellso I don't know what else could cause it. Brendan
relaying restrictions
Hi If anyone could point me in the right direction I would appreciate it. I would like qmail to relay for a user if he/she comes from an allowable IP address and/or from an allowable domain. Right now the server is only allowing relaying for people within allowable IP ranges and from one specific domain. Would I need the whole list of domains we host along with their users corresponding ip address ranges in the tcp.smtp and relaymailfrom files? i would like to set relaying up based almost exclusively on ip address ranges, with the exception of allowing relaying from one particular domain. ideas? thanks brendan

Re: [vmailmgr] SMTP and VMailMgr
Lars, I happen to be having the exact same problem. Well, almost, I think my issue is reversed. Mail coming in from external STMP checks fine, and ends up in the correct area and mail boxes. Users checking their e-mail via POP-3 are told they do not exist, and therefore are not able to pickup mail. I have one user exempt to this, but not on purpose. A previous user set up in the system seems to be able to read e-mails from his home Maildir. I know what your going to say, but mail is not sent to his home Maildir, it is sent to the alternate within vmailmgr settings. Well you got that one right. So infact that is the only user that can log in, but has not a single piece of mail to where qmail is getting is mail from. Basically when an external user attempts to connect to POP3 they are told they don't exist, because qmail-pop3d is not looking in the correct area when they get handled by 'checkvpw'. (my guess) so, how do I change it? Anyway, no user is loosing mail, as it is all getting saved in the right area. If anyone comes up with a solution to this, it would be greatly appreciated! Cheers, Sean Lars Skovlund wrote: Hi all, I have a problem with VMailMgr. When doing SMTP, I am told that the user does not exist - POP3 seems to work fine (although, of course, no mail is in the mailbox).

The logs say: starting delivery 12: msg 174209 to local [EMAIL PROTECTED] I am not sure what the above line _should_ read. I would be grateful for any help, Lars

RE: A couple newbie install questions
I had similar problems (I'm also a newbie), and I'm sure exactly how they were resolved, but here is what I did. I'm running RH 6.2 and the 'Life with qmail' setup qmail-send and qmail-smtp directories correctly, but did not do qmail-pop3d. I had to figure out on my own. Well, here it is: mkdir /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-pop3d chmod 777 /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-pop3d chmod +t /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-pop3d mkdir /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-pop3d/log the owner should be root. /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-pop3d/run looks like: #!/bin/sh exec /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R 0 pop-3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup yourdomain.com /bin/checkpassword /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir 21 the exec is all on one line. Replace yourdomain.com with your own FQDN. I'm using redhat 6.2 so the port 110 is aliased as 'pop-3'. /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-pop3d/log/run looks like: #!/bin/sh exec /usr/local/bin/setuidgid qmaill /usr/local/bin/multilog t /var/log/qmail/pop3d mkdir /var/log/qmail/pop3d chown qmaill /var/log/qmail/pop3d then I still had a problem with the same error messages you are getting. Then I ran these commands, which I think created the lock files. svc -u /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-pop3d svc -u /var/qmail/supervise/*/log It still did not work, then I rebooted, and everything started working. Since tcpserver handles pop-3 (port 110), you should comment out your entry in inetd.conf and then restart (killall -HUP inetd). Documentation for supervise is at http://cr.yp.to/daemontools.html Hope this helps, Greg James [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Original Message- From: Carey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 04, 2000 6:21 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: A couple newbie install questions Hello all, Problem 1: When starting qmail under svscan via the startup script (I'm using Life With Qmail as my guide), I get errors complaining about being unable to acquire a lock of certain files: Supervise: fatal: unable to acquire qmail-send/supervise/lock: temporary failure Supervise: fatal: unable to acquire log/supervise/lock: temporary failure Supervise: fatal: unable to acquire qmail-smtpd/supervise/lock: temporary failure Supervise: fatal: unable to acquire log/supervise/lock: temporary failure My guess is that this is a permission or ownership problem?

Re: Monitoring Email - Clarified
What a useful list. I would of thought that posting what I thought was a pretty basic question would yield something resembling an answer from someone. I hope the responses I received so far, both on and off list, are not examples of typical hospitality and support I hope to receive. I would ask that people who do reply, to actually include an answer instead of a veiled flame.. send the flames off-list to spare the rest of the users the enjoyment of reading what essentially is static noise. ... For your enjoyment thought Adam, I will dig out some prescription glasses and re-read and re-state my last message, just for you in an easier to understand way.. Here it is: Based on the answer from the friendly people on the list that I've encountered so far, I'm to understand the URL to the FAQ (which I so blatantly did not read) describes a method to do what I asked in my original message... And I'll restate that as well, with some extra commentary just so everyone know what and why I wish to know if this can be done. I've been contacted by a client who wishes to monitor incoming and outgoing email, to the extent of message body contents, and attachments. (Please, send your "This is immoral/illegal/un-right" comments to me off-list). For reasons which are really not relevant to the users of the list, I won't explain why they want to do this, other than, they want to do it. The final outcome I would like to achieve is to have a pop account where the client can retrieve all mail sent in and out of their company. I would like each message to be available to your typical outlook/Eudora/pop3 compatible mail client. I would also like the ability to select each message and if desired, view its contents in full, as well as the ability to save attachments added to the email in question. What is not suitable, is a log of To/From/Message Size, incase there is any confusion. The actual contents (and attachments) must be easily viewable, just as if the email was sent to you (instead of nabbed/copy/forwarded in the process) So! If the URL http://cr.yp.to/qmail/faq/admin.html#copies actually provides the exact answer I'm looking for, please excuse my ignorance. Otherwise, I would really appreciate anyone who can provide me with relevant information (minus the flames, and non-answer yielding responses) (Send those off-list) Thanks, Les. - Original Message - From: "Adam McKenna" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 06, 2000 3:12 AM Subject: Re: Monitoring Email On Wed, Sep 06, 2000 at 02:47:14AM -0500, Leslie Bester [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Being new to Qmail, and even after going to the url that you so politely provided, I still do not see the answer.

Flame (Dont read if you hate this like I do)
Please excuse my rash comments, but yes I'd like to bite off my nose to spite my face. I'm quite surprised that after joining the list about... 1 hour ago? That I raised the (over-used) Signal to noise ratio. For anyone who despises the seemingly inevitable flame wars that occur on technical mailing lists, I apologize for being what seems to be a catalyst. I still await the days when one can post a legitimate question to a list, without receiving a barrage of out of context messages with personal opinions, and RTFM a**hole, especially when they send them to the list.Perhaps this is why some lists are moderated. I was hoping that this list for tech support would be above the level of your typical IRC #linux channel, but from what I've seen, it hasn't. Perhaps the people who have taken it upon themselves to respond to me as if I were some belligerent idiot should try to realize that everyone is not as smart as they are, or experienced as they are. Frankly, coming from a very basic sendmail background, the url that points to the FAQ would make very little sense to anyone reading it, especially when they are not familiar with a product they've just downloaded. If it wasn't for the apparent O'Riely(sp) book in the works (or is it done?), I would cease to use the product based on the TONE of the support I've received so far.. It seems like the list (at least this early in the morning) is stockedby a bunch of know-it-all teenagers with a severe lack of etiquette. So to end, I thought the list was a forum for asking questions and getting answers.. not getting slammed. To all the nice people, who will wake this morning to read all this crap, I'll apologize yet again for bringing the crap users on this list out of the wood work. Les.

Re: OT: Mailing list bandwidth
I'm not in a position to give an informed opinion, but in terms of bandwidth, one significant parameter is the average size of messages. Most lists with "well-behaved" users tend to have an average msg size of 2-4k, but some others - especially those that allow binary attachments, be it pictures, documentc, etc. - may go up to 20-30k or even more depending on the 'tolerance' level. I'd be interested to know what numbers you come up with!

Messages not getting preprocessed
Hi, I have a new installation of qmail running 'supervised', but whenever I try to send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED], the message is queued, it just sits there. Say, after sending two messages, this is what I get : $ qmail queue messages in queue: 2 messages in queue but not yet preprocessed: 2 I'm not even sure the message is passed to qmail-send and that's where it "sits", or it sits right before that (??). Doing a 'qmail doqueue' doesn't help. They just sit there. Sometimes (only sometimes), restarting qmail-send does it, but normally it doesn't help either. All processes seem to be running fine: 447 ?S 0:00 svscan 448 ?S 0:00 supervise qmail-send 449 ?S 0:00 supervise log 450 ?S 0:00 supervise qmail-smtpd 451 ?S 0:00 supervise log 454 ?S 0:00 /usr/local/bin/multilog t /var/log/qmail 455 ?S 0:00 /usr/local/bin/multilog t /var/log/qmail/smtpd 1272 ?S 0:00 qmail-send 1274 ?S 0:00 /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -p -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -u 503 -g 503 0 smtp /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd 1275 ?S 0:00 qmail-lspawn |preline procmail 1276 ?S 0:00 qmail-rspawn 1277 ?S 0:00 qmail-clean I first suspected of identd, because at first I had it enabled, and when the server would receive a message, it would launch a number of in.identd processes that when killed (manually by me), it'd get the messages preprocessed and delivered, but then I did disable identd and same thing happened but without the identd processes - the messages would simply sit there.

daemontools killing a filesystem?
Hello, I had a RH 6.0 server running qmail with rather quite success for a few months, until I decided to install daemontools and the supervise/multilog/svscan/... tools. I mainly followed the LWQ docs to get the daemontools installed and configured, and things seemed ok. Mail was going in and out, no problem. Until once I had to manually stop the service (qmail stop) and when I tried restarting it (qmail start) multilog started to continuosly echo to the console that it didn't have write permissions (sorry don't have the exact error log right now) about every second. When rebooting the system, qmail would however run 'supervised' without a problem. Only a manual 'qmail start' would cause it. So I was in this situation for about three days, when this morning I found an error log being echoed to the console non-stop, every second. The error was: Feb 17 21:03:45 www kernel: scsi0: MEDIUM ERROR on channel 0, id 0, lun 0, CDB: Read (10) 00 00 26 6b 38 00 00 02 00 Feb 17 21:03:45 www kernel: Current error sd08:05: sense key Medium Error Feb 17 21:03:45 www kernel: Additional sense indicates Unrecovered read error Feb 17 21:03:45 www kernel: scsidisk I/O error: dev 08:05, sector 2244648 Feb 17 21:03:45 www kernel: EXT2-fs error (device sd(8,5)): ext2_write_inode: unable to read inode block - inode=280580, block=11223 24 I tried to telnet to the machine and take a look at it (impossible to work on the console with all those messages being spit every second) but it didn't work, so I managed to do a soft reboot, after which, the /dev/sda5 filesystem (where /var is) was being reported as a bad filesystem: "Attempting to read block from filesystem resulted in short read while trying ot open /dev/sda5. Could this be a zero-lenght partition?" I managed to recover the filesystem by defining a different superblock with e2fsck. Reboot, and the SCSI IO ERROR comes up again. /var ends up screwed up again. Another fix with e2fsck. Fixed. Reboot. Same IO error. Now, going back to the subject of the e-mail, I found out how to stop those IO errors. All I need to do is 'qmail stop' and the error would go away, and the rest of the system would continue working as usual - except no mail being delivered or accepted of course. Now I wouldn't say "daemontools did this" but rather, what the heck have I done wrong to get this odd error? I'd suspect that the first problem I experienced with multilog might be related but dont really know. My next step would be to remove the daemontools from managing qmail, and leave qmail on its own, but I deeply don't think this problem is impossible to fix, and don't want to give up on these tools just because I can't get it right the first time. Though it is kind of scary when you start to see these errors on a machine that otherwise has run almost flawlessly up til now (fairly new system as well). Any hint would be greatly appreciated!! PS: I've run all sorts of checks on the hard drive for bad sectors, the filesystem tables always show the right info, etc. I don't think it's a hardware failure.

dear sir, i facing some prob with qmail . the prob is i want send unknown local user to another smtp server without doing any changes in header files. means i got two location both got same domain. which is configure in qmail as local domain. so whenx location send mess to y location then is try to send loacally . there should be do with .qmail-default but this useful when you got some other domain who received mail for your domain put in prop queue. pl tell me how to send mess to unkown local user to another smtp server without changin cotains of rcpt to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] the same domain is locally but user is not here . by sachin sawant [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: anybody using smtp-auth with qmail ? (NOT smtp after pop)
Hello Olivier, I found your message in my qmail mailing list archive. Is the smtpd patch now working for you? I installed it, but it works only with the standard checkpassword. It doesn't work with checkvpw. To Bruce: checkvpw also does not work with smtp-auth perl scripts from Mrs. Brisby. So checkvpw have to be different from checkpassword.

relay-ctrl 1.2 - doesn't work
Hello, I tried to setup relay-ctrl on a new machine, but it doesn't work. relay-ctrl-allow writes the IP in the spool dir, but does not make a new cdb file. relay-ctrl-age (executed via cron) builds a new cdb file every five minutes. So I have to wait up to 5 minutes to relay a mail. It's a little bit weird, because I installed an older version on another system and it worked perfectly. Do you have any idea what could be wrong? I thinks relay-ctrl-allow executes relay-ctrl-age. Maybe there is a problem in executing relay-ctrl-age, but I don't know why.

If you run a cdbdump, what does it show? cdbdump /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb | tr '\0' : I have no cdbdump, but I can relay mails, after cron executed relay-ctrl-age. So I fetch mails via POP3, but cannot relay, because the cdb file was not refreshed. After some minutes, when cron executes relay-ctrl-age, my IP was written to the cdb and I can relay mail. This is the strange behaviour I do not understand. If the IP is not be written to the spool or the cdb is not be created, I would know where I should look. Thanks for your help :)

maildir newbie problem

headers with extra bounce
here's my setup. someone sends mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] which is a remailer which moves the mail to my geocities acct. from their fetchmail picks it up and drops it qmail. my problem is this. once qmail gets a hold of my mail, it's adding a section to the header which makes all of my mail look like it's coming from "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" with no subject.
