oke here what I got on my docs

install spam buttons
This plugin will place "Spam" and/or "Not Spam" buttons on the mailbox 
message list page as well as on a single message view page. The action 
associated with the buttons (as well as the button text) can be 
configured to suit most any spam reporting system. Both reporting by 
email and reporting by executing a command on the server are supported.


http://www.squirrelmail.org/plugin_view.php?id=242

so you install the plugin the same as other squirrelmail's plugin
- download
- extract
- put on squirrelmail's plugin
- add it to squirrelmail's config

then below is my spambutton config.php compared with config.php.sample
[root@svr-m1 spam_buttons]# diff config.php config.php.sample

the summary is, to make SA learn spam/ham from other account you need to

sudo -u vpopmail -H /usr/bin/sa-learn --spam
sudo -u vpopmail -H /usr/bin/sa-learn --ham

Hi guys,

I have successfully installed sogo on my toaster, but there are
some issues I still need to work on:

- Auth-backend is ldap and I failed terribly at any attempt to
have more than one mail domain reflected in the ldap tree
- i had to manually set up the ldap tree to reflect that one domain

Luckily, it still solves my immediate problem as I had a

I don't have a problem using plain login w/ TLS. In fact, I would use 
TLS with localhost as well (just so I know it works because I'd likely 
move it to a separate host at some point).


As long as TLS (or SSL, but I prefer TLS) is used, plain logins are 
ok, as passwords are not sent in clear text over the wire this way.


The only problem I see with plain logins is that passwords are stored 
in clear text. I don't necessarily recommend this, and it can be a 
problem in some situations. Changing this policy though is a bigger 
change, and should be addressed on its own. Personally, I wouldn't 
mind seeing QMT move in this direction (eliminating the storing of 
passwords in clear text). We need to be sure though that in so doing 
that all of the other bases (encrypted password types) are covered.


I think we are in complete agreement on this. I'll have to do some 
homework on what Sogo can/cannot do in this context. Documentation seems 
to suggest that TLS is available.

Hi guys,

I have successfully installed sogo on my toaster, but there are
some issues I still need to work on:

- Auth-backend is ldap and I failed terribly at any attempt to
have more than one mail domain reflected in the ldap tree
- i had to manually set up the ldap tree to reflect that one domain

Luckily, it still solves my immediate problem as I had a
requirement to offer CalDAV & CardDAV support. Works like a charm!

 I don't even know what language(s) sogo's written in. I'm
guessing
 the authentication part (at least) is c/c++, but it could be
 something else. Would someone like to find out?

I had a doubt that Sogo may not support md5crypt, which is how the
passwords are stored in the vpopmail database. It looks like that is the
case.

See this link:

http://mail.opengroupware.org/pipermail/sogo/2010-February/005083.html

I haven't found any later references that say that sogo supports
md5crypt, so it looks like the sogo code WILL have to be patched for
authentication against the vpopmail mysql database. Please note that the
patch in the link may be against an earlier release.

Bharath


Does sogo support plain login with TLS/SSL? If so, that should work.

While patching sogo is probably more attractive than patching vpopmail, 
perhaps we should make a request to have vpopmail support whatever it is 
that sogo is using. (I'm guessing digest-md5).

Of course, if cleartext is used to transmit the passwords then that may 
not be an issue.

[qmailtoaster] Re: need some help

[Eric Shubert]

Good one, Patrick. I had forgotten about that. I believe this happens 
when you change the name associated with an account using qmailadmin. 
It's a bug in that application (I just now posted a report for that on 
the qmailadmin list, so we'll see about getting it fixed).


Another, I believe more common reason for duplicate emails is an 
overloaded server, more specifically one that's taking too long to scan 
emails. When the scan time gets to be too long (typically a couple 
minutes or so), the sending server will initate a timeout. When this 
happens, the sending server re-queues the message for delivery at a 
later time. However, QMT doesn't know that, and proceeds to deliver the 
message. So a little later, the sending server tries again, and QMT 
dutifully processes the email. The cycle will continue until QMT manages 
to complete the scan process before the sending server times out, at 
which point QMT tells the sending server that it has successfully 
received the message.


So in this case, the cure is to do some tuning with QMT to help reduce 
the load. The simplest and most effective way to do this is to use 
spamdyke. Simply run the qtp-install-spamdyke scripts, restart qmail, 
and you should be good to go. The stock configuration for spamdyke works 
very well, but you might want to adjust it a little for your particular 
situation.


I would also check to be sure that your clamav-toaster package is up to 
date. There was a version (or 2) of clamav which would occasionally eat 
the cpu, causing load levels to be excessively high. This could also 
cause duplicate emails.


If you're already running spamdyke and your clamav-toaster package is 
current, I'll be surprised. QMT can handle a boatload of email with a 
surprisingly small amount of hardware. FWIW, my first QMT was on a 
P-II/266 w/ 512M RAM. It didn't host a lot of accounts, but it kept up 
w/out flinching, and that was before spamdyke came along.

Many times this is due to something placing a second mail filter

 I'm sure this would work. It's only slightly better than using ldap
 though, as a separate table/database appears to be required.
 
 I'd rather modify the sogo source to obtain the authentication
 fields/values from the vpopmail database. Should be doable, but the
 ease of doing so will depend on how well the code is written. Perhaps
 if we were able to patch an option for vpopmail into sogo, they'd
 include it in the package.
 
 I don't even know what language(s) sogo's written in. I'm guessing
 the authentication part (at least) is c/c++, but it could be
 something else. Would someone like to find out?
