Re: [vchkpw] RBLs
Hello Paul, Here's my call to the rbl's. i prefer to give some info in the 'FU' response, to at least give them a clue where to start. we dropped spamcop a while back, as they were listing some sites that - while they may at times be sources of spam - are not in the main spam sites - such as tropica. we had a number of customer complaints from people who were subscribed to legitimate mailing lists through tropica, when spamcop did a blanket blacklist of their address space. uncool. anyway, here's what we use: /usr/local/bin/rblsmtpd -C \ -a whitelist.example.com \ -r sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org:\ Probable spam connection rejected. Details at http://www.spamhaus.org; \ -r list.dsbl.org:\ Probable spam connection rejected. Details at http://www.dsbl.org; \ -r relays.ordb.org:\ Probable spam connection rejected. Details at http://www.ordb.org/faq; \ -t10 \ /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd 21 I didn't know this was possible with rblsmtpd. I couldn't find it anywhere on the man page. I would love to do this as well, but I would also like to have the default response from the RBLs included.Is it possible to have both included in the bounce message? Thanks in advance for your reply. Kind regards, Jasper Metselaar
[vchkpw] OT: Using rblsmtpd and postmaster still receiving mail from all (even blacklisted) hosts
Hi, I know this is not a vpopmail question, but I looked everywhere (I also tried the qmail mailing list, but haven't received a reply there. :-() to find an answer to this question and hopefully you can help me with this (or at least guide me in the right direction). 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? Thanks in advance! Kind regards, Jasper

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. To bad that rblsmtpd has no option to skip checking when mail is addressed to a specific address - Jasper
[vchkpw] Matt Simersons tcpserver-mysql patch how-to??
Hi! I've installed vpopmail on a new server according to the instructions in the INSTALL file and finally I arrived at point 13: 13. For sites using the mysql module and --enable-roaming-users=y it is highly suggested to use Matt Simersons tcpserver-mysql patch. This removes the need for vpopmail to compile a tcp.smtp.cdb file for each pop authentication. Instead, tcpserver looks directly into the vpopmail mysql table of IP's. But the question is: how do I install it?? I searched the list and I looked at Matt's website, but I couldn't find documentation on this. Thanks in advance! Kind regards, Jasper Metselaar
[vchkpw] Find out how vpopmail was compiled
Hi, I need to figure out how vpopmail was compiled on an existing machine, in other words: I need to know which options were used with ../configure Does anyone know a way to figure that out? Thanks! - Jasper
Re: [vchkpw] Find out how vpopmail was compiled
I need to figure out how vpopmail was compiled on an existing machine, in other words: I need to know which options were used with ../configure You should be able to find this informaton in the config.status file located in the source from which you compiled... This could be a solution if the source was still on this machine... but unfortunately this is not the question. :-(There is only a compiled version running on this machine - Jasper

[vchkpw] Fallback MTA and vpopmail
Hi, I used to have a domain running with vpopmail, qmailadmin and vqadmin. Now the owner of the domain asked to deliver his mail to another mailserver and to configure my server as a fallback MTA for that domain. E.g. IN MX 10 mail.domain-owner.com. IN MX 100 mail.mymailserver.com. How should I setup the domain so that my server becomes a fallback and that it delivers the e-mail to the primary mailserver when it is available again (in case the primary mailserver is off-line)? Thanks for any suggestions! - Jasper
[vchkpw] Aliases not working with maildrop spamassassin?
Hi, I have a real [EMAIL PROTECTED] which is tagged for spam checking. The .qmail-default contains | /usr/local/bin/maildrop mailfilter file which calls maildrop and in mailfilter, runs through spamd to check for spam then pass it back to vdelivermail to deliver to the proper mailbox. Then I created a [EMAIL PROTECTED], which is an alias to [EMAIL PROTECTED] A .qmail-test is created which points to mydomain.com/user/Maildir. When an email is sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED], qmail just dumps it directly into user's mailbox,completely out of the spam checking task. Shouldn't the .qmail-test file's content be the same as the .qmail-default file? How do you enable alias to behave the same as the account that it's aliased to? Of course I can use a forwarder to [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead, but I don't think this is the best wayor? Thanks in advance for your suggestions! Jasper ___
