Re: [vchkpw] vpopmail and mailfilter
Brian, I put individual .qmail files in the users directory. I filter all of my mail into IMAP folders as it comes in this way.

Is it true though that if I have say /home/vpopmail/domains/test.com that I will have to make a .qmail-default in the test.com directory call the users .qmail's, or can I just simply put a .qmail in /home/vpopmail/domains/test.com/joe with: | /usr/local/bin/maildrop ./Maildir/mailfilter and have that work? My impression was that at the point we have entered the individual users directory, we are now in vdeliver and not qmail-local. I have seen scripts on the internet that show how to have a .qmail-default call maildir for each user, but it would be much more elegant if I can just have a .qmail in each users directory inside the virtual domain. brian On Jul 2, 2004, at 8:55 AM, Greg Kopp wrote: It CAN use maildrop (mailfilter), but doesn't out of the box.

Re: [vchkpw] OT: Using rblsmtpd and postmaster still receiving mail from all (even blacklisted) hosts
One would hope that they would be smart enough to possibly use a different mail server or service at that point, like yahoo, hotmail, or soon for most, gmail.

Okay, here is my question: I use rblsmtpd to block mail from hosts that are listed on some blacklists, but I would like to keep my postmaster address(es) ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) receiving mail from all other hosts, even if they are listed on blacklists. Is there a way to achieve this? Hi, Since rblsmtpd works before the smtpd connection even occurs, it is not possible to allow email through to a specific account. Regards, Rick Thanks Rick, I was afraid for that. :-( I was looking for a way to allow people to be able to reach me when they are blocked, so I can explain why they are blocked and help them to solve it if needed.

Re: [vchkpw] Migration from MySQL to CDB Files
I doubt this is a MySQL problem. We are using MySQL in several environments, including vpopmail. My guess is I don't have as many users as you, since I set my pop3 concurency at 30 with no problems. Are you running qmail-scanner or spamassassin? These added quite a bit of load to my mail server (dual 2.8 Xeons, 2GB RAM) but it still averages at around 0.3 for the 5min average. It will spike if Razor is slow to respond or one of our customers does a blast e-mail to thier client base. You can try and put MySQL on a seperate server and just have vpopmail connect to the external database and see if that solves any load problems. BTW, What versions are you running?

The only recourse I have left is to reboot, since even console is not responsive. I have checked my logs, and basically, for each pop3 connection, an instance of mysql is generated to check password for a virtual domain user, this generates swapping. The load average shoots up to 300 and I have seen this go as high as 500. The server is running Linux RedHat 7.3 and has 512MB RAM and 1GB SWAP, for about 4000 users in 70 virtual domains. It also runs Apache for qmailadmin. Since there are not that many users per domain, less than 100 average, will CDB Files be a better solution to this problem?

Re: [vchkpw] SMTP Auth HOWTO?
The patch you are using is incredibly old.
You should consider auth-jms1.4a.patch from
http://www.jms1.net/qmail/auth-jms1.4a.patch
If that link is broken, google on auth-jms1.4a.patch and look at the
cached version.
You might also consider the qmail-requireauth.patch that allows you to
set an environment variable to selectively require authentication. I had
to manually apply the patch as some of the line numbers didn't jive.
I've pasted it below.

Can mysql auth and cdb auth co-exist?
I ahve tried this with 4.8.7 as well as 4.9 and can't seem to get it to work. I want to enable BOTH mysql and cdb authentication so I can gradually move my domains over from cdb to mysql. Can this be done? If you say yes, then what do I need to do? I only ask this question as I have tried this a half dozen times on our existing qmail+vpopmail server and it does not work. Once installed, I get these errors in /var/log/maillog: Sep 5 17:31:29 voyager vpopmail[4402]: vchkpw: No virt found [EMAIL PROTECTED]:207.206.15.107 No matter who tries to pop thier mail, a cdb based domain or a mysql based domain. My installation of qmail is very close to that in the LWQ faq. It has worked fine for the past 9 months, and have no complaints. I just want to migrate to mysql authentication. I would appreciate some help.
mysql and cdb authentication
I want to migrate my domains from cdb to mysql authentication. I compiled vpopmail 4.8.7 with: ./configure \ --enable-roaming-users=y \ --enable-tcpserver-file=/etc/tcp.smtp \ --enable-relay-clear-minutes=30 \ --enable-logging=y \ --enable-hardquota=1500 \ --enable-mysql=y \ --enable-sqlincdir=/usr/include/mysql \ --enable-sqllibdir=/usr/lib/mysql I changed vmysql.h to use "domains" as the default database, and I left "vpopmail" as the default table name. Once installed, I can't check my mail on any cdb domain. Where did I go wrong?
