[vchkpw] vqmaillocal
The other day i just noticed vqmaillocal and was excited to see that i didnt need to put vdelivermail in each users .qmail file but now i see a read me that says '** vqmaillocal has not been actively maintained and should not be used. **'. I would love to see this finished. Are there plans to finish it? Estimated date? -- Best Regards, Shaun Reitan Account Specialist www.NDCHost.com www.cPlicensing.net

Hello List, On Sunday, January 4, 2004 at 8:05:17 PM [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote (at least in part): thank you for that hint but it does not work. if i add the user thomas, the path /path-to-vpopmail/domains/thomas/Maildir... is created as i want it. If you 'vadduser [EMAIL PROTECTED]' you /CAN'T/ auth against /etc/passwd, as 'this' Thomas, with his mails being delivered to '/path-to-vpopmail/domains/example.com/thomas/Maildir' is a member of 'example.com' and not a system user. You have to user your complete e-mail-address as username than. If you want /SYSTEM users/, those with a Maildir usually somewhere in /home/..., to fetch their mails too you can compile vpopmail allowing to authenticate against /etc/passwd (respectively /etc/shadow). If you don't want system users to fetch their mail, but only mails from somewhere below '/path-to-vpopmail', you should, for security reasons, NOT enable passwd password verification at vpopmail compile time. -- Best regards Peter Palmreuther I've never danced with the devil, but I once threw up in a Denny's...
RE: [vchkpw] Vpopmail 5.4.0-rc1 released
From: Tom Collins [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Someone mentioned something about putting in a patch so that cram-md5 auth would work with vchkpw. I can't remember who it was but does anyone know if this has been done? Shoot. It hasn't been done. I'm visiting family for the holidays, and haven't been able to spend much time working on vpopmail. I wanted to get a release candidate out, but I forgot that that patch was in my queue. Someone (Bowe?) wrote (in a SourceForge tracker item) that it might be incompatible with one of the smtp auth patches for qmail. I know for a fact that I can't use CRAM-MD5 from Apple Mail to my server, so I don't doubt that there's a need for a patch. If anyone out there can test CRAM-MD5 auth, please try applying this patch to rc1 and reporting back whether it fixes the problem. Also, please report the source of your SMTP AUTH patch if known. http://www.fehcom.de/qmail/smtpauth.html I just built a new mail server with 5.4.0-rc1, qmail 1.03 and that 0.42 smtpauth patch from the URL above and cram does not work. Regular login and plain works fine. David
