RE: [vchkpw] proposed vpopmaild commands/usage

Guys,

I am in hospital at the moment - one of the muscles of my left leg refused
to work and the doctors look for the reason.

I could not read all posts - I would just like to tell you that two more
people are interested in this daemon - and they want to write it - so it
seems that this project has the unique chance to be something supported by a
broad community of top people. I have never managed such huge community
effort, so I have no idea about the dynamics. I only hope that personal
pursuits will not allow any of the great people interested in the daemon to
be lost.

I'll try to come back to the list on Monday.

Until then - best to all,

Iavor

Get better first, then think about this, its a second priority.

[vchkpw] Tip for using chkuser with Maildrop

2004-04-04 Thread Ron Guerin
Thought I'd share this tip with the crowd...

The chkuser patch, which ensures an address is valid in the given domain
before accepting a message, would be defeated if you simply replace your
vdelivermail line with a Maildrop delivery line in .qmail-default.

After taking a peek at how the chkuser patch works, I realized that it
will work correctly if you instead comment-out the vdelivermail line and
add your Maildrop line after.

#| /home/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' bounce-no-mailbox
| maildrop .mailfilter

Chkuser sees the bounce-no-mailbox it needs to see this way, without
altering the patch.  A little klugey maybe, but it works.

I would recommend a more generic patch instead of this one, I personally like 
this one very much:
