[vchkpw] I'm stumped
Good morning, I've a problem that has been harassing me for a week now. I'm no qmail/vpopmail expert, but I've solved most all my problems over the years with the archives and The qmail Handbook. So I've done my share of troubleshooting and I think I have a pretty good grasp on how qmail vpopmail work. This one has me stumped. I have a user who claims he is not getting emails.

[vchkpw] vpopmail + ldap
Hello, I have been charged with setting up a new mail server for our small college, and I really want to use qmail+vpopmail, because of the admin features of qmailadmin. (and ezmlm, .qmail files, etc) The catch: My user database is in Active Directory, and I can't talk management out of letting it go yet. I have been reading about the possibility of changing the AD schema to work with vpopmail's ldap module, and I have gotten the go-ahead to do that if I can make it work on my test domain, but if anyone has any better ideas on how to do this, if it will work at all, I would greatly appreciate them. Possibilities I have thought about: 1. Modify AD schema. This seems to be messy, and I'm not sure it would work at all. Can I use the OpenLDAP schema file included with vpopmail to use as a template for AD? 2. Run separate OpenLDAP database on the mail server, and sync passwords. However, I don't know if this one is feasible or even possible? If anyone has tackled something similar and knows the most efficient way to handle it, I would really appreciate the advice (This includes if you have talked your superiors into letting go of AD)! If I'm barking up a dead tree, I would love to know that, too. Thanks in advance, Mike

I think the point you made earlier, is that users make blaringly
obvious mistakes, quite frequently, when using mail clients. They'll
lose a message in a thread, due a message filter, etc. We've had
this same type of conversation with admins, etc. What it comes down
to, aside from technical research of the problem, is that if you're
confident that the message is being delivered, tell them. If you
can, get on the phone with them, send a message while they're on
the phone. If they get it, tell them, Works fine. This seems
more like a customer management issue at this point, but here are a
few things I'd tell the end-user to do in this situation. Disable
message filters, sort messages in all folders by date and time,
rather than by thread, and disable any sort of in-client spam filtering
that might be deleting the message automatically or moving it to
a seperate folder.
Hope that helps a bit!

Yes, I started that way, but unfortunately most of our business clients check pop every 5 minutes. By the time they tell me there is a message missing it is the next day. What would really be useful would be logging of message IDs in the qmail-send log at delivery, and in the qmail-pop3d log when the message is deleted by the pop client. I could then say, it was delivered, you popped it and deleted it. Currently I am logging the deliveries, I have the user removing his filters, stopping his email anti-virus (we already scan for them), and leaving his messages on the server.

[vchkpw] 5.4.9 vdelivermail ignores quotas
Hello, I recently upgraded vpopmail to 5.4.9 with netqmail 1.0.5 with the big qmail patch from shupp.org. Authentication is file-based. vdelivermail now seems to ignore maildir quotas for messages delivered via a catchall/.qmail-default address. e.g. I have a mailbox [EMAIL PROTECTED], with no .qmail file. The catchall (in .qmail-default) for domain.com is set to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For instance, there is no mailbox at [EMAIL PROTECTED] so mail sent there will go to the catchall. When oq has exceeded its quota, messages sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] directly begin to bounce, as expected. But messages sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] are delivered to the oq mailbox despite it being over quota, whereas they ought to bounce. I'm wondering if this has been fixed or is being worked on.

I plan on releasing 5.4.10 very soon now (I hope) and then following it with a 5.4.11 that includes the new vdelivermail. If you'd like to try it before then, you can download it from the Patches tracker at http://vpopmail.sf.net/. I don't recommend it for production servers though, since it has not been thoroughly tested. -- Tom Collins - [EMAIL PROTECTED] QmailAdmin: http://qmailadmin.sf.net/ Vpopmail: http://vpopmail.sf.net/ You don't need a laptop to troubleshoot high-speed Internet: sniffter.com

Uhh, looking at that again, isn't that going to write an additional copy of the message to the Maildir everytime a delivery is made? Seems qmail-local would pipe the message to that line. I imagine that ls just ignores whatever is piped to it on stdin. It shouldn't result in any duplicates. -- Tom Collins - [EMAIL PROTECTED] QmailAdmin: http://qmailadmin.sf.net/ Vpopmail: http://vpopmail.sf.net/ You don't need a laptop to troubleshoot high-speed Internet: sniffter.com
Re: [vchkpw] 5.4.9 vdelivermail ignores quotas

I'm wondering if this has been fixed or is being worked on. Known problem, addressed in my vdelivermail rewrite.

If you can get a package together I'd be more than happy to stress test it for you while I do my normal pre-live testing. We'll be loading in about 30K users with MySQL and the chkusr patch.
