Re: [vchkpw] vacation messages
vpopmail supports piping mail to autoresponder, autoresponder does the vacationing. You could write a script that does the sql operations for you. This is easilydone using a php shell script. You're pretty much on your own with this one as there are now projects that links horde vacation with autorepsonder. - Original Message - From: Andrew Preece [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: vchkpw@inter7.com Sent: Friday, July 08, 2005 1:39 PM Subject: [vchkpw] vacation messages Hey all, I'm trying to set up vacation messages, and I'd like to use the horde vacation plugin, as we already have all of our users well versed in horde. In the docs for vacation, it says that it supports an SQL based vacation message, as long as your mail server supports it. Does vpopmail supports this? As we already use MySQL for all of our user information, it would be convenient. Thanks, Andrew.
Re: [vchkpw] vacation messages
Okay I'll try to spell it out for you When setting a vacation message you've got to set the .qmail file for the user to pipe the email to a program. Normally it's autoresponder. But what you're going to have to do is pipe it to a custom script written by you in a language that can execute sql queries(php, perl, python, et cetera). That script is going to have to read the vacation message from the sql table and then email the person back. When I said you're on you own I meant it, I assumed that also implied that there would be no documentation on it. If you have qmailadmin, make a test email account and set a vacation message. then look at the dot qmail file to see how autoresponder works. - Original Message - From: Andrew Preece [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: vchkpw@inter7.com Sent: Friday, July 08, 2005 2:26 PM Subject: RE: [vchkpw] vacation messages vpopmail supports piping mail to autoresponder, autoresponder does the vacationing.

Thanks, Andrew.
Re: [vchkpw] vacation messages
That's actually very good. I'd make a cron job to check the db entries. then every five minutes it would write the dot qmail files based on what the db says. btw how's horde working out. I was thinking of using it. More on the script, the script should write indevidual dot qmailfiles for each user in their home dirs that way compatability with qmailadmin isn't broken. - Original Message - From: Andrew Preece [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: vchkpw@inter7.com Sent: Friday, July 08, 2005 2:55 PM Subject: RE: [vchkpw] vacation messages Okay I'll try to spell it out for you You spell very well ;) Do you think it would work if I wrote a program to check if the recipient has an autoresponder entry in the DB, and if they do, do an autoresponder thing. So I'm thinking that the qmail-default could look something like |checkforawaymessage |vdelivermail etc... That way, I'd never have to edit the users .qmail file.

OK. He wants to know if there is a tendency on the market for some other mailserver. He asks me what mailservers the biggest linux/Unix distributors are using on their products. For example, what's the mailserver shipped with RedHat, Solaris, Mandrake, Debian, etc? I really don't know. I believe all of them are shipped only with Sendmail, but I'm not sure on this actually. Debian (and Ubuntu - based on Debian) and FreeBSD all use Exim by default. I'm not sure about any Linux distros other than Debian. I've seen a couple ISPs and such before that use sendmail - but that was simply a mandate from the higher ups that didn't know anything about mail servers. Evidently Sendmail was the only software name they recognized, so they decided it needed to be the only one used in their company - none of the techs liked it. Personally, I think sticking with qmail is a pretty good choice. HTH, Jacob

Re: [vchkpw] mail relay problems ...
clamav isn't the problem. Wait a month and your output will look like this. This happens when clamav wants you to update clamd and whatever. That's fine but the admin might not get to it as soon as it becomes outdated, but with this issue mail smtp breaks immediatly so the admin is forced to update clamav the very second the scanning engine becomes outdated. I first discovered this when I got a custom smtp rejection full of astisks **, it was the first line of clamscans output. as soon as I update clamscan simscan's smtp sessions work. - Original Message - From: Rick Macdougall [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: vchkpw@inter7.com Sent: Thursday, June 30, 2005 3:43 PM Subject: Re: [vchkpw] mail relay problems ...

Have you edited /home/vpopmail/etc/vpopmail.mysql? /home/vpopmail/etc/vpopmail.mysql is edited correctly and user vpopmail in my mysql database has not enough privileges to do this. He has only the rights for read and write in the table. This should be enough for an incoming only server, or? I'm wondering what is the reason that vmysql will create this table? The only tool that works during the smtp-session is chkuser, or? regards Dirk Tanneberger Am 10.05.2005 14:24 schrieb Chris Godwin: Well it is clear what the problem is.

[vchkpw] vipmap
I've just trouble shot for hours on why this doesn't work. I've discovered on my own that courier reports all ips in ipv6 format. I thought this was the root of my problem. I found a patch for an old vpopmail version that patches vipmap.c. I nanoed into vpopmail.c and realized that the patch had already been added to the stable version. Now i'm running vpopmail version 5.4.7 and I cannot get ip-alias-domains to work. I'm not asking what the problem could be I just need a place to starttroubleshooting. We will be micrating 4000 accounts from a box users qmail install to a virtual users install and need this info as soon as possible. Thank you for you attention to this matter. Chris Godwin.
Re: [vchkpw] vipmap
one more tidbit. I'm using courier-imap(s) and courier-pop3d(s) as my listening daemons. - Original Message - From: Chris Godwin To: vchkpw@inter7.com Sent: Monday, May 09, 2005 3:29 PM Subject: [vchkpw] vipmap I've just trouble shot for hours on why this doesn't work.
