RE: [vchkpw] Query!
1. make sure your pop3 daemon is running, and is configured for using vchkpw authentication 2. If the pop3d is running ok, then take a look in the maillogs, as this will sometimes give you a clue as to why the authentication is failing. eg on Redhat you could look in the file : /var/log/maillog Michael. -Original Message- From: nilesh kothari [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, 16 October 2002 5:20 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [vchkpw] Query! dear Sir, i am not able to access mail via outlookexpress, netscape. i tried both [EMAIL PROTECTED], user%domain.com in user field of outlook. i am abel to access mail via sqwebmail. i read FAQ Install file both. but problem is still occuring.

[vchkpw] integrated qmail-vpopmail-mysql with squid-mysql, pureftp-mysql,samba-mysql

Re: [vchkpw] integrated qmail-vpopmail-mysql with squid-mysql,pureftp-mysql, samba-mysql
I've looked into this also, but I haven't gotten any further than the research phase. From what I've found, you might want to start with Samba+LDAP, and add qmail+ldap to that. OR, while looking for the samba+LDAP+PDC docs, I came across this at RedHat: http://rhems.sourceforge.net/rhldc.htm Interoperability between RHSD projects such as the RHSD Email Server and the RHSD Domain Controller will allow for use of Single-Sign On. RHSD also utilizes IETF Standardized projects and therefore will be compatible with any Directory system compatible with LDAP v.3. You might want to start there.

I believe, by default, the database is 'vpopmail', and the table is 'vpopmail'. The columns are setup as so: pw_name | pw_domain| pw_passwd | pw_uid | pw_gid | pw_gecos| pw_dir | pw_shell | pw_clear_passwd | I think it's pretty straight forward. Add the necessary squid columns to the vpopmail table, and tell squid to use pw_name and pw_clear_passwd to auth, if you can. Your best resource for where to do that in Squid would be the Squid list.. But then, I would recommend also taking a look at what samba requires. You wouldn't want to spend time hacking up Squid auth, only to find that it doesn't work with Samba. (I would think Squid would be the easiest to integrate) Please reply to the list, while I try to be helpful, I'm not necessarily knowledgeable, and peer review can hopefully correct any mistakes I may make (or give you a different road to follow).

Re: [vchkpw] alias support via vpopmail in PHP
P.S: though I have valias support enabled and it seems to be working fine (can use command line valias to add re-director (as well as test it), php refuses to add support for it. Have re-built from clean tree sources for vpopmail as well as php, no luck. Though not a vpopmail problem, if anyone has any idea why this may be, I'd appreciate it some guidance. -mustafa. the vpopmail extension (you might want to try mine, as it has some important fixes for alias domains) is checking for valias support by looking for the library call valias_select you might want to try: strings ~vpopmail/lib/libvpopmail.a | grep valias_select to check whether this function really is in your libvpopmail.a oh.. and you can find my php vpopmail extension at http://www.ionium.org/php/php_vpopmail-0.1.tar.gz -- Best Regards, Justin Heesemann

You might want to look at Blackhole as well. I'm very pleased with it so far. I figured out how to enable it on a vpopmail installation just yesterday. http://www.groovy.org/blackhole.shtml . I'd say it's as good as or better than spamassassin. I'm working with the author currently to clean up the documentation and the user config file (.blackhole) since there are 72 options in it, and it can get very confusing trying to get all the settings just right. more options == finer-grained control though, which is a good thing WRT spam and virus filtering.

Re: [vchkpw] Qmail AntiSpaming
It seems that tarpit patch only works to stop spammer. However, some users used scripts to send large amount of advertising emails throught my SMTP server and each connection only use 1 or 2 RCPT TO. I can't stop them using my SMTP server. I just want to limit the number of emails they can send within a period of time. For example, users can only send 100 emails in 1 day.

You could always amend your 'User Agreement' to charge $500 per instance of Spam, and misuse of company resources.. Then, instead of spending time slowing down spam (and potentially discouraging honest users), you can try and squeeze money out of the people misusing the service. Or just kick them off.

[vchkpw] mail gateway smtp auth
im an integrating my companies existing qmail/vpopmail/mysql server and an older post.office setup into one. i have three boxes that would be the listed mail exchangers and would also perform limited virus checking and spam prevention. mail comes in to one of them, passes through filtering process, if not rejected, then forwarded to the real mail server where actual mailboxes reside on some raid equipment. this plan seems great to me, but i have one problem. smtp auth. if i have qmail/smtp-auth set up on all three of these boxes and the actual server with users maildirs is on another box, how are any mails gonna make it through? well im thinking i could set up vpopmail on all boxes with mysql replication and have the main mail server as the master, but that seems a bit much to me. all the other notions i have in my head about how to do this just don't seem clean enough to really want to implement. i just need a method for qmail/smtp-auth on these three mail exchangers (gateway) to use the auth info from the main mail servers vpopmail/mysql database. does anyone have any suggestions? thanks all. -chris

Re: [vchkpw] mail gateway smtp auth
You wouldn't necessarily need the MySQL Replication... Just point all the boxes to the main server with MySQL on it. Do that first, then play with the replication..

That will be the best method for your app. Also when directly deleting(rm) emails from ./Maildir/cur does .current_size file need to be updated or just deletion is enough. This was deprecated in 5.2. You should write your application to adhere to the Maildir++ spec, located here: http://inter7.com/courierimap/README.maildirquota.html Regards, Bill Shupp

[vchkpw] maildir problem
Hello my config qmail 1.03 ezmlm 0.53 ezmlm-idx 0.40 vpopamil (feb 2002) don't remeber version courier-imap (feb 2002) don't remeber version Today one user was sending mail(4mb attachment) from imap via outlook. Was the mail sent to a mailinglist managed by ezmlm? How big is the partition for /var/qmail? The user was using an imap account [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the sender addresss of [EMAIL PROTECTED](a list in my server) at one point the server stopped to service outlook After 30 min the server restart to respond, but not to all mail account in @some.domain. in the [EMAIL PROTECTED] all the user subdir exist, but if i try vuserinfo i get : no soch user The lists are in sql and i can access them trugh qmailadmin. Are this mail file corrupted? is it possible? Thx Daniele
RE: [vchkpw] mail gateway smtp auth
replication is EASY!!! First make sure both versions of mysql are the Same..Now set permissions.. GRANT FILE ON *.* TO REPL@% IDENTIFIED BY 'password'; Do that on the master... Shutdown MySQL then tar.gz the files for the data bases on the primary server And put them on the new slave. Now edit the my.cnf on the master and add this [mysqld] Log-bin Server-id=1 Now restart the master. And now add this below to the slave my.cnf [mysqld] Log-bin Server-id=2 Master-host=hostname of the master Master-user=replication user Master-password=replication user password Now restart the slave and do this from the mysql client SHOW_SLAVE_STATUS; -Original Message- From: Rick Romero [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 16, 2002 1:51 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [vchkpw] mail gateway smtp auth You wouldn't necessarily need the MySQL Replication...

RE: [vchkpw] mail gateway smtp auth
When running qmail with smtp-auth you have to give it a password checking program. You'll need to setup vchkpw on your smtp-auth box no matter what to authenticate. So it'll need vpopmail on it anyway, unless you have a different method in mind.. -Clayton -Original Message- From: Lists @ Apted Technologies Inc.

RE: [vchkpw] Qmail AntiSpaming
I compiled qmail with the qmail-queue patch, and added Qmail-Scanner and SpamAssassin. There are docs floating around to on how to add SpamAssassin via .qmail files if you don't want to recompile, or didn't compile with the qmail-queue patch.

[vchkpw] Auto-add vusers to LDAP DB?
Howdy folks: Looks like my boss may be getting a Big New Client with new requirements for email. Big New Client wants a global address book the ability to add delete users on their own. No problem, I say, I'll set up LDAP qmailadmin. Then it hits me: I have no idea how I can automatically sync the new users into the LDAP db. So, my first question for this list: is anybody doing anything like this? My current setup is as follows: OpenBSD 3.0-stable, soon to be 3.2-stable. qmail 1.03 vpopmail 5.2.1 Second question: does anybody know if qmailadmin will continue to work with Apache running in a chrooted environment?

I believe, by default, the database is 'vpopmail', and the table is 'vpopmail'. The columns are setup as so: pw_name | pw_domain| pw_passwd | pw_uid | pw_gid | pw_gecos| pw_dir | pw_shell | pw_clear_passwd | I think it's pretty straight forward. Add the necessary squid columns to the vpopmail table, and tell squid to use pw_name and pw_clear_passwd to auth, if you can. i have do this, and i successes but ionly if i use the clear password and only username and password field, thing that I want to know is how to read vpopmail password encryption using mysql query :-) Your best resource for where to do that in Squid would be the Squid list.. But then, I would recommend also taking a look at what samba requires. You wouldn't want to spend time hacking up Squid auth, only to find that it doesn't work with Samba. (I would think Squid would be the easiest to integrate) yea, you right i have think it too, and next i want to vpopmail using samba (NT) encryption method, because it come from windows and cannot be change !! Please reply to the list, while I try to be helpful, I'm not necessarily knowledgeable, and peer review can hopefully correct any mistakes I may make (or give you a different road to follow). thank's a lot for you attention and advice (btw sorry my english very bad :-[ ) Rick snip
