[vchkpw] .qmail file with users with dot
Hi, i´m using Qmail+Vpopmail+TMDA. TMDA is used for controling spam. The problem is that .qmail files works ok for users like [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] but when i use [EMAIL PROTECTED] qmail ignores the .qmail file and uses the .qmail-default file. So in this case, TMDA is not used for filtering mail and all mails passes to Maildirs. All my email addresses have [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Anyone as any idea?

[vchkpw] Authentication Errors
Hello All, I have been happily using vpopmail for about 2 years. Thank you for a great tool. I am in the process of setting up a new server and I am nearly through. The problem I have is that authentication sometimes fails. I seem to only have this issue from sqwebmail. I have seen in other mailing lists that this has recently been a bug in vpopmail but I haven't found a solution. Here are the specifics: User [EMAIL PROTECTED] attempts to login from sqwebmail and types the username and pass correctly. I am using mysql, so I look at the log and the username string that is presented is johnn or johni or john/. sqwebmail-3.5.3 and sqwebmail-3.5.2 and sqwebmail-3.5.1 (all the same) (ugh) maildrop-1.5.3 vpopmail-5.3.20 and vpopmail-5.2.1 (did same thing) qmail-1.03 I can't help but think I may have something misconfigured. My production server is working without a hitch. BTW, I asked this question on the sqwebmail list and was told it is a vpopmail/vchkpw bug. It still seems to only happen with sqwebmail though (for me). Thanks in advance, -- David Bronson
[vchkpw] vpopbull WARNING
If you choose to run vpopbull, I highly advise doing su vpopmail first. If you run vpopbull as root, it will insert a file owned by root, and this will essentially kill vpopmail (POP3 retrieval) until you can recursively chown the files to the correct owner:group. Just wanted to make others aware of what just befell me. --- Benjamin Tomhave, CISSP Senior Systems Engineer [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sofast Communications www.sofast.net
[vchkpw] Fwd: template .qmail file

Subject: [qmailadmin] template .qmail file
Perhaps this is a strange request, but here goes...
It would be nice to have a template .qmail file that gets coppied into the vpopmail user's directory when creating a new user. This would work sort of like how useradd takes /etc/skel and copies those files into the new user's home dir.
Reason for this?
I want to be able to use the .qmail file to call a script that filters spam (using the spamassassin spamc/spamd)
Perhaps there's a better way to do this using qmail (filtering at the queue level perhaps)? Any suggestions are more than welcome.
Anyways, the .qmail file will work for now. I was able to hack the user.c addusernow() function so that it copies a .qmail file into the new user's directory. If anybody is interested in how I did this let me know... its a pretty ugly hack though.

This request is probably more appropriate for vpopmail development.
Could one of the vpopmail developers consider submitting a patch to make_user_dir that would copy a default .qmail file (perhaps from ~vpopmail/etc?) into the new user's directory?
You could insert the code here:
if ( chdir(username) != 0 ) {
chdir(tmpbuf); free(tmpbuf); free(tmpdir);
printf( make_user_dir: error 2\n);
return(NULL);
}
/* insert code to copy default .qmail file */
if (mkdir(Maildir,VPOPMAIL_DIR_MODE) == -1){
chdir(tmpbuf); free(tmpbuf); free(tmpdir);
printf(make_user_dir: error 3\n);
return(NULL);
}
Thoughts?

This would work sort of like how useradd takes /etc/skel and copies those files into the new user's home dir. This is a job for a BASH script around vadduser, not a patch. That would work, but then you'd have different behavior when adding users from the command line (vadduser) and from qmailadmin (which uses the vpopmail libraries). I was hoping for consistent behavior, perhaps even with other programs that might link into vpopmail. A modification that used a skeleton directory could also be useful for those who want to have extra Maildirs automatically created (say for SPAM) on user creation. A shell script wrapper does the trick on the command line, but not for qmailadmin. -- Tom Collins [EMAIL PROTECTED]
