I install vpopmail 3.4.11-released on FreeBSD 4.0. I don't 
when is it start ... but it's look like after is use mysql,  the authentication 
is very long. More than30 seconds. But after authenticated the downloading 
process is fast enough. My email client is microsoft outlook express 
5.
I try to login from sqwebmail and it's really fast. I could 
say it less than 1 second.
Is there any clue ?

Sounds to me like tcpserver is having a problem resolving the IP address
of your client machine. The two easiest solutions to this problem
are either make sure you have reverse DNS setup for your IP address, or
(and this is the solution I've used with my system) run tcpserver with
the -H option for qmail-popup.

Hope this helps,

Re: qmailadmin - ezmlm problem

 Hi,
 
 I just installed qmail 1.03, vpopmail 4.8.7, qmailadmin 0.32, ezmlm 0.53 +
 idx 0.40 and autorespond 1.0.0. on a redhat 6.2 system.
 Everything seems to work fine for one thing: in qmailadmin I am not able to
 add a moderator to a mailinglist.
 The message I get in the webbrowser is this :
 
 no file /usr/local/share/qmailadmin/add_listmod.html
 
 The file is not there, while other qmailadmin html files are.
 Strangely enough deleting a moderator and changing a moderator seem to work
 fine, although I also cannot see any 'del_listmod.html' file.
 
 Did I miss something?
 
 Paul Holthuizen

I think that was a problem in the qmailadmin 0.32 release.
It didn't install all the html templates. I think it's
fixed in the newer release

 I am currently using SUSE 6.4 on several servers for web and like the
 way it works with the ReiserFS (very fast!). However, QMail/vpopmail
 seems to be working great on Slackware. But I want to take advantage
 of the ReiserFS for the speed (not to mention I am terrible at
 compiling a kernel so the install would stay default). Also, I am not
 sure if I need to use MySQL with an install like this or just stick
 with the default database that vpopmail creates.
 
 Does anyone have any suggestions or insight into this? I am open to
 all comments or thoughts on the subject. 

I'm not sure I see the dilemma.  If you want to run qmail/vpop on Suse,
go ahead!  I've run it on OpenBSD, Slackware, RedHat, FreeBSD, and
Solaris.  Worked perfectly on each system.  I've even run it with all
the mail being stored on a NetApp filer via NFS.

So:  If you want to run Suse, run Suse.

Re: sorting emails

2000-08-04 Thread Einar Bordewich

If you together with courier-imap you can have this in your
.qmail-someuser-default:
|TEST=`echo $EXT | cut -d"-" --output-delimiter="." -f1-4` ; if [ -d
"$HOME/someuser/Maildir/.$TEST" ]; then maildirdeliver
$HOME/someuser/Maildir/.$TEST/ ;else maildirdeliver $HOME/someuser/Maildir ;
fi

If you ex. create a submaildir under someuser called vchkpw and subscribe to
the list as
[EMAIL PROTECTED] , the mail vi be delivered into the
submaildir.

I use this on a daily basis, creating a new folder throug Outlook Express
and IMAP, and then subscribe to the qmail list with this To: receipient.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Might need some modification for your solution.

filters

2000-08-04 Thread Matthias Henze

hi,

by now i've read about filters in sqwebmail - well - how can this work with 
vpopmail ?

- sqwbmails filters rely on maildrop acting as local delivery agent
- vpopmail delivers by vdelivermail
- maildrop can not use vpops user database
- vpopmail can not use userdb

how can i make this work ??

i still think that a simple filter add on to vdelivermail is the best solution.

Re: maximal established connections through qmail

Hi,

I have an server (Pentium III 750 MHz, 500 MB RAM, 50 Gigabyte Disk)
running with vpopmail, qmail, vchkpw and fastforward on SUSE 6.4.
There are 90.000 virtual users on that machine with nearly the same
amount of aliases in the fastforward.cdb.

But there is one problem. I offer pop3 and smtp service on
this machine and have aproximatly 1500 till 2000 connection
at the same time on the machine (netstat -a). 63 percent are pop3
connections and 32 percent smtp. Rest not important.
And I can see only 120 till 130 established connections of those
1500-2000 connections at the same time. The rest (80 %) is in
status SYN_RECV. CPU-load is around 40 percent.

Are you running everything from inetd or tcpserver? I have 200,000+ mail users on my 
machine, but have to limit my incoming SMTP to 550 connections using tcpserver's -c550 
option because of bandwidth problems.

Just something you may want to consider.
