What is your domain structure, what dot-qmail files have you tried to

Re: [vchkpw] Urgent Problem

2002-09-04 Thread Trey Nolen

qq errors are caused by qmailscanner, not vpopmail.  Check your qmailscanner
logs. You may be running out of memory (softlimits set too low).  If you
can't find anything in the logs, set the Debug variable to 1 in
qmailscanner.  There is information on this in the docs.

 Hi every one

 I have this issue that is stopping mail from being sent or received.

 RH  7.3
 Vpop5.2
 Qmail   1.03
 Qmailadmin  1.0.2

 This has happened before and I fixed it by cleaning files from the mail
 queue

 But no go this time.

 Will try and receive from outlook express as long as there is nothing in
 the mailbox.

 Trying to send just times out.

 If you try to send this from sqwebmail.

 You get error qmail-inject: fatal: qq read error

 Has any one come across any thing like this???

 Any help would be appreciated.

[vchkpw] Authentication based on alias names

2002-09-04 Thread Andy Johnson


Is it possible to have users authenticate using their alias names? I've
scoured the net in hopes of finding some patch or hack, only to come up
empty handed. I've got the mysql authentication module enabled. I was
wondering if anyone has tried, or if its feasible to have vchkpw check
against aliases in the event the username does not match. If anyone has any
ideas please let me know.

If you installed mysql from source then your include files are in

Subject: [vchkpw] Compilgin Vpopmail with Mysql General Questions.


Hello all,

I am new to this list, I am in the process of testing some installs of
various mail options.

I am trying to learn a little about some of them and set up some test
machines before I decide which one to go with.

At the moment, I am trying ot build on a redhat 7.3 system, a mail system
that handles multiple virtual domains and users.A good way of doing this
appears to be with qmail/vpopmail/mysql.

I am using qmail as the MTA, and I would like vpopmail to manage the virtual
domains and users / auth through mysql.

I have qmail in and working and I have patched qmail and uscpi tools with
the Matt toaster and Matt Mysql patch.

My Mysql install is in the directory /usr/local/mysql

I have configured vpopmail with the following options

./configure --enable-qmaildir=/var/qmail --enable-vpopuser=vpopmail
--enable-vpopgroup=vchkpw --enable-roaming-users=n
--enable-tcpserver-file=~vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp --enable-mysql-logging=y
--enable-default-domain=mdlan.co.uk --enable-mysql=y --enable-valias=y
--enable-ip-alias-domains=y --enable-incdir=/usr/local/mysql/include/
--enable-libdir=/usr/local/mysql/lib --enable-libs=/usr/local/mysql/lib
--enable-sqlincdir=/usr/local/mysql/include/

Which seems to run well and return a good output

vpopmail directory = /home/vpopmail
   uid = 517
   gid = 90
  ip alias = ON  --enable-ip-alias-domains=y
address extentions = OFF --enable-qmail-ext=n (default)

  auth logging = ON  --enable-auth-logging=y default

[vchkpw] Vpopmail: Best method for virtual hosts/domains?

2002-09-04 Thread Alan Murrell

Hello,

I am putting together a dedicated hosting box for a
Customer, who will be hosting several domains.  The
box will also handle their email.  I will be
installing Apache/PHP/MySQL/mod_perl/etc. from
Apachetoolbox, and will be using
Qmail/Vpopmail/QmailAdmin/Sqwebmail for the mail
solution.

My question is, which is the best way to handle the
virtual mail authorization?  I have used 'vhckpw' in
the past, but also notice that many people seem to
like using MySQL for that.  What are some of the
advantages/disadvantages of using MySQL over the
traditional' vhckpw?  Or are one of the other
authorization methods better?  I know this is a
subjective question.  I guess what UI'm looking for
are pros  cons, so I can then make my own decision
based ont hat.

TIA for your help and insight.

[vchkpw] slightly ot -sqweb question

2002-09-04 Thread rm

I've tried to search this on the sqwebmail archives and posted it on the
sqwebmail list - no luck so far.

It's a nagging little matter - but maybe someone has a solution.

On the Sqwebmail login page when using a logindomainlist you get a
pulldown menu of available domains. When the login page originally 
displays - there is no selection on the menu bar - just a blank space at
the pulldown bar. Once you click the menu it works just fine, and it has
all of the correct domain selections, but it looks odd when it first
opens and it's blank.

When looking at the Mo Lions club example, the bar has molions.com (or
something like that) - but mine is blank, you have to click the pull
down to get a domain option.  Is there a way to eliminate the blank
and have it show the first domain on the logindomainlist?

[vchkpw] No joy getting vchkpw to replace checkpassword.

2002-09-04 Thread Robert Porter

Hi,

I have a working install of QMail on a RedHat 7.3 system.  It hosts my domains 
email server.  (RP2C.COM) and all was working well.  I wanted to be able to 
host mail users without local accounts, and according to Dave Sill's book 
vpopmail was a way to do that.  I have a number of employees that I want to 
provide email to but I don't want them necessarily to have accounts on this 
system.  Also they will be coming in from the all over the internet so I 
wanted to enable POP and/or IMAP services.

I got the POP3D service running just fine, but as far as I can tell in order 
to host users mail without accounts the way to go is a virtual domain type 
service like vpopmail.  Maybe I am confused but does this mean I have to 
acquire another top level domain name?  Can't I just turn my current domain 
into a virtual domain as far as Qmail is concerned?  

Anyway, after installing vpopmail I altered my POP3d run file to have it use 
vchkpw as opposed to checkpassword.  At that point all logins failed, both 
for the virtual domain and the real user based accounts.

I tried telneting into 0 110 and got past the user x stage okay, when I 
put in pass yy I got an AUTH failed message.  Replacing vchkpw with 
checkpassword again and restarting the service resulted in everything working 
again.

I am stumped?  Any ideas?

Cheers,

You are correct.  You don't need a new top level domain name.   Vpopmail
allows you to add hundreds/thousands of email users who are not system
users.

cd /home/vpopmail/bin
./vadduser username

(vpopmail will query you from there)

[vchkpw] Strange autoresponder messages.

2002-09-04 Thread Steve Fulton

Hi all,

I know this isn't the list for supporting the autoresponder, but since 
there is no list for supporting the autoresponder, I'll post here.

I've received several complaints from one of my clients.  There are 
approximately 50 accounts, some with vacation/autoresponders set 
up.  Recently, a message from one member of the company was sent to all 
other members.  Apparently some received the messages immediately, while 
others did not receive it for days, some not at all.  My hunch is that this 
clue is a bit of a red herring, since it was a long weekend just 
past.  Anyway, here is a sample of the message the original sender received:

qmail-send program at mail.esoteric.ca wasn't able to deliver the 
messageThis is a permanent error.  It goes on to say AUTORESPOND: too 
many received from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 


My instincts tell me that this is *probably* due to a number of people 
having vacation messages set up.  An attempt is made to deliver the 
message, autoresponder replies thanks but no thanks, and the message is 
deferred / queued yet again.  Eventually autoresponder denies the message 
because too many deliver attempts have been made to that particular user.

So:

1.  Has anyone else seen this behavior?  The above messages appear in the 
logs as well, FYI.

2.  What do you believe could be causing this problem?  Do you agree with 
my theory?

3.  What can be done to fix this?

I don't consider this an urgent request, since it appears to only confuse 
the user, but its definitely a bug that needs squashing at some 
point.  Unless, of course, I've somehow managed to FUBAR my install on that 
server (despite not touching it for almost a year).

Thanks,

-- Steve

I read (am reading) the link you sent, out of curiosity does a setup like that 
support a webmail interface? If so any material on which one and how to 
implement it?

Thanks!

 Hello Robert,

 I'd shy away from vpopmail as it doesn't really work properly.

Hi 
there,Anyoneknow how to have POP3 account use thesame password 
as in vpopmail account?
When I connect 
to the mail server to get mail, it only understand password in /etc/passwd. 

When I use 
sqwebmail, it will use vpopmail password in my MySQL DB.
How can I let users auth for POP3  Webmail by using DB password?
I'm 
using1) vpopmail 5.2.12) qmail 1.033) supervise 
qmail-pop3dThanks you in advance.kohcy

How long ago was your experience with the vpopmail/sqwebmail combo? Since I am 
not going to be running a high volumn server I wonder if my experience would 
be different.  Just curious what you think.  I don't want to go the expense 
of Cold Fusion if I can avoid it.  I am a small operation  10 employees and 
unlikely to grow much beyond that.  Might host another 20+ accounts for 
associates and contractors but that would be it.

Cheers,

 Hello Robert,

 No  webmail  interface.   I  use  a Cold Fusion webmail interface that
 works pretty well.

 I  found  in  my experimenting with vpopmail/sqwebmail/qmailadmin that
 there  were  far  more  problems  than  benefits.  I've been running a
 straight qmail server for a few years, then I added vpopmail/sqwebmail
 and qmailadmin.  After that everything went to hell, fast.  Forwarding
 did  not  work,  the webmail interface validated users for about a day
 then  quit.   qmailadmin  would  error  out  all  the  time, but still
 complete the task.

 I  switched back to a standard qmail install and found the cold fusion
 front  end.   Now  all  the  qmail  stuff  (forwarding,  aliasing, and
 catchall mailboxes) work just fine.

MessageYes, virtual domain.
All the mail go to vpopmail account, not /etc/passwd account.
