[qmailtoaster] Password complexity and/or expiry time
Hi list, Is there a way to configure vpopmail to enforce password complexity, expiry time and things like that? I did not found anything, and I've suffered from easy guessable passwords for my roaming users giving wrong-doers the ability to use me as a relay, every now and then, and I'm getting sick of it :-(. I didn't find anything related nowhere :-S Some clues? --- David Sanchez Martin Administrador de Sistemas dsanc...@e2000.es GPG Key ID: 0x37E7AC1F E2000 Nuevas Tecnologías Tel : +34 902 830500 smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature

Re: [qmailtoaster] QMT-ISO and download speed
Thanks for the reply Jake. Your job is great and for sure i don't want to blame on you. It was just a simple request, I will see what i can do. For the donate i can understand you well I've a site that provide free online RPG (role playing game) by browser from agoust 2001 and in 9 years i haven't recive a single donation even if the donate button is pretty much visible and it cost me money too running that site. The point is i think it's something we do for passion. Anyway i don't want to go Out of Topic that was just a note. Regards.

Hi, Has anyone setup and using QmailToaster with TrendMicro IMSS. If yes please guide me how can I install and configure the same. Regards, Anil Aliyan
Re: [qmailtoaster] SpamDyke Issue
Sure, you have a couple of choices, - remove spamdyke - add RDNS exclusions for all the IPs your clients use Because 587 hasn't come to full acceptance YET, client applications like Outlook lack the wizard settings to flip this easily. There are several sites that show how to make these changes, in fact, I made one myself for my customers. I have over 50 domains and an average of 30 users per domain. Yes, it's a painful pill to have to swallow but in a lot of cases you won't have any choice. It's better to get it over with now. I have also run into a few broadband providers that block port 25 all together (Comcast RCN)! They only allow you to use 25 to their server or you use 587. This is a huge boost for spam prevention because it keeps the low lifes of the world from putting up a spam server. Hiii, But i think thats not the only solution. What if i am an ISP???

Re: [qmailtoaster] SpamDyke Issue
You can find instructions on disabling spamdyke on the wiki page. I don't think you want to do that though. Your roaming/remote users should not be blocked by spamdyke if they authenticate successfully. Spamdyke bypasses all filters for authenticated connections. I'd check into why authentication is not apparently working. Did you use qtp-install-spamdyke to install spamdyke? Which version are you running? Anil Aliyan wrote: How can i remove spamdyke safely.

Re: [qmailtoaster] SpamDyke Issue
The easiest way to accept mail from misconfigured servers with spamdyke is to whitelist the sending domain. Add: @gnfc.in to /etc/spamdyke/whitelist_senders file.

Re: [qmailtoaster] QMT-ISO and download speed

I've already limited the bandwidth since downloads BURIED a 3M connection, but then I started to get complaints from users who were unable to download the software or it was very slow. I started to investigate and saw that cerain users (such as IP 61.7.216.10) were opening 20+ download sessions. I've installed a module to limit the number of downloads per IP address now, so hopefully this should solve the problem caused by some crap-heads out there. /Okay, It's pretty understandable what you did but actually the download speed is: 9.5-13.8 KB/sec this is lower then an old 56K modem. For downloading 569 MB it take 1 day and X hours. So the /have a working mail server in about 30 minutes. /it's pretty much a fake. Any chance to have a better download speed, please? If you pay for the download of CentQMT5 you will get a better download speed. I've throttled the speed on the free download of QMTISO. If you get a really slow speed, it's because other people are downloading it at the same time. I throttled the total bandwidth used, not on a per-IP basis. Since the free version averages 10+ downloads per day, the server sees a lot of traffic. They're 700M files, remember. I'm sending this email 3 hours after you sent yours ouand I see 7 people downloading the thing right now. I understand your frustration, and since I put Qmailtoaster on Sourceforge a week or so ago (at least I registered it) I may move the ISO over there to use their bandwidth. Otherwise I'm going to drop the whole free ISO download. It's been downloaded 13879 times (that's 9715300M worth of downloads) and not one single person has ever hit the donate button or gotten me anything off of the Amazon list (for those that didn't want to donate money). It does cost me money to run things like - and the ISO is a big sink due to bandwidth. Alberto, Jake is right. what you can do is install the base OS (if you already had one), download the qmail packages and install them manually. -- Ernie P.
