hi

there are rising number of incidences with ms .doc and .xls being transmitted 
with embedded macro virus

i found a tool here which will detect such files containing macro virus and 
mark them as spam
https://github.com/fmbla/spamassassin-olemacro/blob/master/OLEMacro.pm

i dont wish rely on antivirus -- in the last incident sophos, kaspersky (i am 
seeing it fail for the first time) and clam did not detect it.

does anybody use the above spamassassin module or something equivalent ?

What shall we need to change in case the number of users is increased?
Is there any calculation for the setting, ram and CPU?

This sort of thing is generally server-side filtering. We intend to use Sieve 
with dovecot's deliver to provide this functionality in QMT, but it's not in 
there yet.

I think you can write a maildrop rule to accomplish this though. While I don't 
encourage the use of maildrop because it'll be replaced by sieve soon, I 
believe you can achieve what you want with maildrop.

 The setting in qmailadmin will forward all email (from any email address) for

 Now we can only set up this mail rule in email client software but the

to start with try disabling : pop3_lock_session

ie set pop3_lock_session = no

most of email clients (outlook / thunderbird etc ) make multiple connections

Dear All,

We setup a new QMT system in centos 6.6 64bit by using the new installation 
procedure in one week ago.
There are around 25 users and around 50 email address in there different 
domains.
Most of the users are using outlook 2013 and few are using outlook 2010.
All connected to the new mail server with imap only.

Everyday, around 3-5 users have connection problem that the outlook popup 
keeping to ask for password.
The outlook keep asking password by popup even user entered the correct 
password and user id.
The problem won't solve until we restart dovecot and sometime we need to reboot 
the server.

We found some error log in dovecot.log as below.
Is it the cause of the problem?

After searching in google, we found something about to change cache_key=%u to

But we are not sure we are in the same problem or not and whether this change 
is applicable to the QMT system.
If this is the solution, where should we change the cache_key? In passdb or 
userdb or both passdb  userdb?
Do anyone have the same problem happened before?

We also found error like that.

Yes, dovecot should be running.

Probably should add:

Not having dovecot running would certainly keep squirrelmail from working. ;)

 No imap was found.

 When I checked with chkconfig, I found that dovecot is off.

 dovecot 0:off   1:off   2:off   3:off   4:off   5:off   6:off

 May I confirm do the new QMT use dovecot or not?

 Do it mean that I need to start dovecot after the installation instructions 
 below?

 Installation Instructions (pre-wiki)
 .) install CentOS minimal
 # curl

 (script will complete the installation)

 Many thanks,
 Alex

 Selinux?



 The qt-bootstrap-1 script should have turned off selinux and rebooted.

 The new SM configuration should be authenticating on port 587. Alex, can you 
 post your SM configuration file?

 Personally, I run SM on another host which runs only phpfcgi, so something 
 may have been lost in the translation. ;) I have seen problems with 
 permissions in the /var/lib/squirrelmail and /var/spool/squirrelmail 
 directories with custom setups like mine, where the php user runs SM instead 
 of apache. This could be a red herring for you though.

 My guess is that the mirror you happened to get was down. As a work

 This will force resolver to use one that you know is working.



 I did edit my hosts file
 adding
 69.144.11.118mirrors.qmailtoaster.com

 and then when i ran bootstarp 2 -- it seemed to be much happier

 so i went to look for the qt-setup-firewall script [  Q2 ] i seem to 
 have 2 ( i found these by Find  / -name qt-setup-firewall -print )

 /usr/bin/qt-setup-firewall
 /opt/qmailtoaster-util/bin/qt-setup-firewall

 they seem to be the same

 need I change both? or if only 1 - which one?

They are the same. One is a symlink to the other. This is according to LSB 
standards (which not many Linux systems follow unfortunately).

 as I look at these I am . thinking I should change 1 or 3 things

 maybe 
 MYIP=  to what my true ipNumber is and that would be my private num

 here is some info  My public num= 168.215.62.221  ; my private num=
 192.168.201.221

Yes.


 maybe i should comment out
 iptables -A input -s 192.168.0.0/16

Yes.

 or maybe i could  - not turn iptables on by commenting out or removing

 chkconfig iptables OFF

That's probably ok, given that you're behind a firewall/router. Just depends on 
how secure you think you need to be.

 so , again , i am behind a nating firewall.
 and I suspect i need to alter my qt-setup-firewall ( one or both ) 
 what would those changes be

 then run qt-install

Yep.

 and then how do i prove that -- i have it all installed OK

It just works. Proceed with creating domain(s) and user accounts.


 thanks much!

 jim S


Sorry to be a little slow and short with the replies. Very busy these days.


Thanks.

 and what sort of change would one wish to make?


 Q3

 after i get it installed
 how do I prove that it is  Ok?  running as desired ?
 [ and then I make my domains and add users }


 Thanks

RE: [qmailtoaster] install qmailtoaster on centos 6.5 64 bit version

[Alex Kan]

Hi Eric,

Thanks for your reply.
Sorry that I didn't mention clear in my last email.

Actually my question is Do we need to modify the firewall setting
(iptables) in the QT server if our server is behind a FW with one to one
NAT?.

==
Just comment out the line with 192.168 in it (presuming that's the range
for your lan) and rerun the script. That should take care of it.

That's the answer!! 

Thanks!
Alex

I'm in the process of fixing up the firewall script. No telling when that'll
be completed.

Since before I '06, it blocks traffic from private address blocks, assuming
they're spoofed. This caught me too when I first used QMT.

Just comment out the line with 192.168 in it (presuming that's the range for

 Hi Alex,

 I think all I installed was bind post QT install.

 On your firewall you must allow SMTP traffic to pass to the QT server.
 On most firewalls you must 1) create a firewall access rule and 2)
 Create a NAT policy.
