Subject: [vchkpw] qmailadmin issue

Hi all,

Hopefully this is the right place for this issue. If not please let me
know. I've built a new mail server on Ubuntu with qmail, vopopmail,
dovecot, clamav, qmailadmin etc. Everything is working well with one
exception. When I set a vacation message with qmailadmin it stops that
users mail completely, no vacation message, or bounce back just stopped.
I've checked the qmailadmin install and the autoresponder install as well
as the log files. At this point I'm not sure what to do. Any suggestions
would be appreciated.

Andrew

I meant this solution (by Matt Brookings):



Try this:

cat > ~vpopmail/etc/vusagec.conf << __EOF__
Server:
   Disable = True;
__EOF__

Hi Jukka,

I know, that is what I tried. It did not work on either 5.4.28 or 5.4.30. 
Anyway, using Safecat as mentioned above seems to work, though I have had one 
email where the message body disappeared I will spend a week testing it and 
see what happens. Thanks for your help. Do you know if using safecat like this 
is "legit"?

Thanks, Paul.

try this:

Hi Jukka,

Thanks for your reply. I have seen that post and tried that fix on 5.4.28 and 
now I have tried it on 5.4.30. Unfortunately it has not cured the problem... 
Any other ideas?

Thanks again Paul.


The Solution (for me) ---
I use safecat in the . qmail file

So in /home/vpopmail/domains/domain.com/user/ I have a .qmail file that reads:

|safecat /home/vpopmail/domains/domain.com/user/Maildir/tmp 
/home/vpopmail/domains/domain.com/user/Maildir/new
&anot...@email.address ### another email address on a new line that I forward 
email to. ###

Paul

[vchkpw] Delivery of local message results in Aack,_child_crashed

2009-12-15 Thread Paul H. Giesberts
Dear All,

I have installed the latest qmail-net as per "life with qmail" on a RHES 5.3, 
then vpopmail-5.4.28, which I upgraded to 5.4.30. (And dovecot 1.2.8)

I get a "Aack,_child_crashed" upon mail delivery, when I create:  
home/vpopmail/domains/mydomain.com/firstname.lastname/.qmail 

with a local delivery instruction in the .qmail file that reads: 
/home/vpopmail/domains/mydomain.com/firstname.lastname/Maildir/

If I remove the .qmail file it works fine. If I create a .qmail file with a 
forward to an external address it works fine. It's when the delivery 
instruction is local that it fails (./Maildir/ does not work either).

Can you please help?

By the way, what I am after is a local delivery PLUS a forward for a user. Also 
this is NOT yet a production server

Thanks in advance,
Paul Giesberts
