Re: [vchkpw] processing .qmail files for all users
Hi Tom On 5/25/05, Tom Collins [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: If you want the SAME string for all users in a domain, you can insert that at the top of the .qmail-default file for the domain. Qmail-local will run the email through your script before passing it to vdelivermail for local delivery. Isn't the problem that if you have a .qmail in the doman directory (like .qmail-fcu) the mail is never seen by vpopmail or the script, because qmail-local will do the delivery itself?

I thought that you might had solved this problem too. After I added succefully a domain with punycode (xn--stpeskien-m8a.no) still I can't get messages to this domain through my qmail-server. I see from my qmail-send log starting delivery 3131: msg 133219 to remote [EMAIL PROTECTED] and next delivery 3131: failure: Sorry,_I_couldn't_find_any_host_named_st?peskien.no._(#5.1.2)/ As Tom pointed out, you should never see an address like this on the qmail level. The MUA is responsible for converting the domain to punycode before it tries to send it over smtp or whatever. There may actually be a problem with qmail's sendmail/qmail-inject (which imho qualifies as MUA) as it is not able to do this right now. Hope that helped and regards Flavio -- http://no-way.org/~fcu/

Hi On Tue, 21 Sep 2004 11:47:24 -0700, Tom Collins [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I think I kept the original email on this, so I'll take another look at it. Is there enough demand to have this added to vpopmail and QmailAdmin? Is anyone using simple command-line programs to convert from unicode (or 8-bit) domain names to their punycode equivalents? It would certainly make sense for the authentication code (in libvpopmail?) as the end user could use their normal domain name then. As for the ISP, we have to work with the punycode domain anyway (domain register, dns entries, ...) , so it may not be needed... Thank you and regards Flavio -- http://no-way.org/~fcu/

When I try to add a domain with one of this character I get a Invalid domain name in Vpopmail. Is there any solution to this problem? What should I change to make it verify my characters? This came up on the list about a year ago. Basically, we (the developers) need to make significant changes to vpopmail and qmailadmin to support those extended characters. It isn't an easy task, even with some of the code libraries out there for converting such domains. I don't know about norway, but here in Switzerland we are using IDN domainnames for special character domain-names. From the Mailserver point of view, the domainname stays in the 7bit ascii-range, the clients must make sure they convert everything accordingly. So for the domain äöü.ch, I'd use vadddomain xn--4ca0bs.ch (punycode). This works fine, it's only a hassle for the users. Maybe it would be possible for vpopmail to do this conversion in vpopmail if special characters are detected? Hope that helps and regards Flavio -- http://no-way.org/~fcu/

[vchkpw] resetting dir-control

[vchkpw] vdelivermail and Delivered-To
