[vchkpw] [SPAM] valias line that pipes into vdelivermail again breaks delivery valias documentation lax
Hi Guys,
I've been a Qmail users since Peter Samuel at SLUG.org.au did his talk a
long long time ago.
Now down to business. I have an issue with vpopmail failing with
virtualmin, a webmin spin off..
http://www.virtualmin.com/node/22970
Basically what happening is this, virtualmin is configuring
|/var/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail user@domain for aliases and it's breaking.
Why it's breaking I don't exactly know why, because according to the valias
code pipes are supported.
I seek confirmation on the mysql implementation of vmail aliases.
* multiple aliases for the same domain are supported (true)
* if qmail extensions are used (user-ext@domain) in aliases they will be
used INSTEAD of the user's alias (?)
* qmail extensions are supported on aliases if there is not a better match
(see above)
? how do qmail extensions on aliases flow through to the user accounts ?
* pipes are supported (true) (see caveat)
* forwarding is supported - in order to support non-standard email naming
conventions i.e. dot qmail compliancy (true?)
* mbox delivery is not supported (true)
* if no hostname is provided on alias it will use
/var/qmail/control/defaultdelivery (true? seems to be using
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject at some point noenvhost is ignored)
* aliases are processed before users (true)
* if the database is down, a soft delivery delay occurs (true)
* mail loops for valiases only are detected (true) (not for user accounts
bouncing back to a valias??)
* delivery to maildir folders are supported if the full path is specified
(true)
* delivery to maildir folders are supported for relative paths in relation
to vpopmail's home directory defined in /etc/passwd (true?) i.e. ./domains/
hiled.biz/user/.maildir/ is prepended by vpopmail's home directory
* a maildir folder needs a ./ or a / at the beginning of the line to be
processed (true/false?)
* anything else that should go into the readme file thats not there
I do hope some people can look at that virtualmin ticket to theorize why
vdelivermail doesn't like calling itself to do another delivery.
The issue doesn't affect me, it's just that some other setup's and indeed
virtualmin's non-sql-backend setups are all doing it this way.
It did take day to hunt down, but finally my pain is over (i never thought
of checking the valias database)
I'm also petitioning virtualmin to be fixed fixed to work with gentoo's
defacto .maildir defaultdelivery standard for qmail. They had hardcoded
./Maildir in their source.
Speaking of the maildrop patch for virtualmin, I don't like it in it's
current form. It's messy.
I think that vpopmail should support this setup instead.
1) If a domain is not owned by vpopmail:vckpwd/vpopmail still configure
/var/qmail/users/assign to use uid/gid 89 (vpopmail) - see below, this
should be configured by a #ifdef MAILDROP
2) Add maildrop to your system as SUID with it set up that vpopmail is a
trusted user. --configure-trusted-users=x,y,z,vpopmail in maildrop
configure script.
[ Due to the amount of personal information vpopmail system could release,
it should be pretty locked down anyway if any system administrator is worth
his salt.]
3) I patched vdelivermail to spawn vpopmail in LDA mode.

[vchkpw] Oracle module
Hi all, I'm new to the list but not to vpopmail ; I've been using it for a long time in its cdb and mysql flavours.. Last night, I started building it with Oracle support, since it was reported functional in the (shrt) README.oracle ... Just to be honest : pain in the a (Don't flame, go on :-) ) Lots of mistakes, compile errors, linker errors, typos, missing parts of code and just obscure behaviours all the way long I think the biggest problem is, this module has been ignored for months by the community (and thus never aligned with the main code), as connecting Oracle to open source mail solutions was quite rare, as stated, I guess. This may be less evident now, with free Oracle distributions (XE). Well, at least, yesterday, there was someone needing it. Anyway, this morning I'm quite proud of saying, He it works! I have written a procedure of my 8-hour journey, what I changed, what I added, etc. , and thought it may be of some use to other people. So first, if anyone here has Oracle in mind, I may directly assist, or maybe someone could direct me on how to have my changes merged into the project as a new contribution? Let me say. Take care, Cyril' (Config : RHEL 5, Oracle XE with InstantClient 11.2) (And I'm french btw! Hope this is readeable) !DSPAM:4b4c6bd532711219310518!

David I have been off the list for a few days and missed this discussion. We have 3 E-Mail servers, 2 of which are backup MX's and 1 master, I wrote a small chkuser-style-server on the master server and a chkuser-style-client for both the MX's. This for us works perfectly and no files have to be migrated from the master to the backup's. The server is very simple (it does not actually use chkuser, but just chkuser style functionality), and the client communicates with this server to validate destination addresses. The client is called using a qmail-check-recipient patch (not sure where it came from, I might have even written it). It may be possible to write the server to use chkuser and have clients on the relay machines.

Ok, noted. I replied in the middle of the existing thread/message because of the mention of 'Complete alias handling' by Rick (not so complete without the ability to remove an alias line using vpalias.c), although I did take on board his comment about 'Full support is available in cdb and MySQL back ends', no harm intended.
Re: [vchkpw] The future of valias other topics
First a quick review of the new features added to the 5.4.18 release:
o The option of running a script each time a user or domain is added,
deleted or modified. This can be used for sending notification
messages, maintaining a list of valid users and what ever else you may
need to do. See README.onchange
o Complete alias handling. With this version you can add an address to
an alias, delete an address from an alias, delete an entire alias, or
delete all aliases from a domain. That pretty much takes care of all
the possibilities for unordered aliases. Full support is available in
cdb and MySQL back ends. The MySQL code can be used as a template for
other back ends.
Attached is a patch for 5.4.18 to enable alias line removal from .qmail
based aliases and the implementation of alias line removal using the
valias command line program.
Am I meant to be posting patches here (such as my previous double free
problem in vpalias.c) or to another list ?

[vchkpw] Vpopmail 5.4.18 bug
Hi,
There is a bug in 5.4.18 of Vpopmail where if you (as a programmer) call
valias_select_all() twice in the same program on a domain that has no
aliases, the second one (for me) gets a glibc double free error and
aborts.
This occurs when using file based valias functions (vpalias.c).
You can get it to break by using vpopmaild and using list_alias on a
domain with no aliases.
Patch attached.
Regards Drew

Re: [vchkpw] Custom Fields ?
The user directory and the corresponding Maildir is created by vdelivermail if it does not exist (make_user_dir(...) in vpopmail.c called from vdelivermail.c) and does not depend on the backend.

OK, I just looked at the MySQL code (the backend I use, and therefore am familiar with) and you're correct. I don't know if that changed since sometime in 5.3.x, when I first played with extending the DB, but at this point it looks like the columns are explicitly stated in order for all relevant SQL queries, so the order in the DB shouldn't matter. Just don't change the order in the query without changing the code - that I know for certain :) I believe vdelivermail has support for creating the Maildir for a user when the first email comes in. All you have to do is create the database entry and wait for a message. (Maybe the one sent by John's onchange patch.) disclamerI may be wrong, I use cdb./disclamer I believe you are correct - the user dir doesn't get created until the first attempt by vpopmail to either read or write to it (e.g., deliver a message, check via pop3, etc.). I don't think this depends on the backend, as every backend stores the location of the user dir effectively the same way. Josh
Re: [vchkpw] 5.4.17 patches
Tom,
The first patch implements .qmail-extension files (and also the -default
variations). This is useful for me because it means that any special
delivery rules created for a user can all be put in the users own
directory, when the user is deleted all the special rules go aswell.
As far as the second patch goes, it just implements what I think is a
missing feature from the commandline 'valias', and that is the ability to
remove a line from an alias (either .qmail file or SQL backend). This
patch also removes the SQL only restriction.
I know most of the community only want to use SQL backends, I however do
not, so I have been patching vpopmail for a while now so the file backend
works.
While scanning the vpopmaild.c code, I noticed a comment in there that the
list_alias and list_lists commands needed re-writing to use the new valias
code, this is what I have done. This removes the need for the bkscandir
function (although that patch does not remove it). Also the output of
these commands does not display the leading .qmail (as the old commands
did), this is probably correct for both file and SQL backends.
Patches attached :-
1) vpopmail-5.4.13-dot-qmail.patch - Implements .qmail-extension (etc) in
the users directory.
2) vpopmail-5.4.13-deliveredto.patch - Some changes to how the
Delivered-To: header line is inserted into an E-Mail, this patch is needed
to handle E-Mails delivered using the above patch (maildir_to_email can
return a blank result).
3) vpopmail-5.4.17-valias.patch - Changes to valias to remove SQL only
restriction and implement alias line removal.
4) vpopmail-5.4.17-vpopmaild.patch - Implements list_alias and list_lists
commands using the new valias code.
Note: I also have a patch which is the same as 1) but does not call the
files in the users .qmail, instead calls them .vpopmail files. I
personaly prefer .qmail files so vpopmail looks like a qmail installation
as far as users are concerned.
If there are any bugs in these patches, please let me know.

We're definitely interested. I maintain the 5.4 releases, and have
5.4.18 waiting to be released. It includes a lot of changes by Rick

I'm not sure I understand the first one though -- vdelivermail and
qmailadmin already support a .qmail file in the user's directory.
Are you talking about .qmail-extension files?

Re: [vchkpw] 5.4.17 patches
Rick,
As requested I have attached the .qmail and .vpopmail files in the user
directory patch. I do not use this patch but created it a little while
ago incase I did want to migrate to using .vpopmail files.
As far as I can remember the order of name resolution is as follows :-
1) .qmail-{extension} - Open if exists
2) .vpopmail-{extension} - Open if exists
3) Chop the end off the extension (back to the last '-')
4) .qmail-{extension}-default - Open if exists
5) .vpopmail-{extension}-default - Open if exists
6) Loop back to 3 until the extension is empty
7) If no file got opened from 1-6 then just bail, otherwise follow the
instructions in the opened file.
You do still need to combine this patch with the deleiveredto patch (from
my previous email) to get it all to work properly.
As far as maintaining the order in .qmail file using valias, I am pretty
sure that they are maintained in .qmail files. As far as the SQL is
concerned I am not sure (I don't use SQL), do you want me to look into
this ?

I have mixed feelings about this. I'm sure Charles Cazabon on the qmail
list would rejoice if we did this. On the other hand we seem to be
moving towards having all the functionality of .qmail files built into
vdelivermail, which would also take care of his objections.
The best solution would probably be to read both .vpopmail and .qmail
files in the user directories, and start naming files executed by
vdelivermail .vpopmail. I'd like to see this patch...
If there are any bugs in these patches, please let me know.
I hope to find some time this weekend. There are a number of features
I've wished for for quite some time...
THANKS!

[vchkpw] 5.4.17 patches
I have a patch for implementing personal .qmail files (.qmail files inside the user directory and not just in the domain directory), I also have a variation on this patch to name these .vpopmail files. I also have a patch which implements alias line removal in valias.c (-r flag), removal of SQL aliases only and adding alias line removal in vpalias.c (function valias_remove()). I also have a patch which changes vpopmaild.c to use the new valias code (as requested in vpopmaild.c - as a comment). Does anyone want these patches - I did not want to litter the list with them. I had sent the first one to the list before which while it provoked a discussion got forgotten. I find them all VERY useful.
RE: [vchkpw] Unable to log into pop3 accounts
Jeremy, Yes I restarted the services, always do since I still use the qmailctl script from my original qmail install. I was afraid you would suggest this :( No I know your not bashing anything; ive heard the same before. I had qmail setup on this box just as expressed on that site and then one day I decided to do it the Gentoo way and should have never did it .. So I will remove that /bin/true comment, but how deep should I go to remove the gentoo ebuilds? Just a simple emerge -C qmail-vpopmail? Is there nothing I can try without having to interrupt my environment just to get pop3 to work? What in your opinion may be some lingering bugs that you know of?

[vchkpw] Unable to log into pop3 accounts
Hello List, I have a simple situation, I'm just unsure as to how to correct it J I have an environment that uses primarily IMAP in a Qmail/Vpopmail platform. Today I needed to assign a pop3 account and its seemed well until trying to log into the pop3 account. Mail can be sent by the user using the pop3 account, but not receiving .. The error in Outlook is the generic as always: #Log onto incoming mail server (POP3): Outlook could not logon to the incoming mail server(POP3). Please verify the settings for User Name, Password and E-mail fields. #Mail logs show: Jun 8 12:34:35 [vpopmail] vchkpw-pop3: (PLAIN) login success [EMAIL PROTECTED]:192.168.2.1 So all seems well, but it isnt. The mailbox does exist and the tcpserver is running on 110. Port is open and I'm a little lost . L Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance J Lenny

Re: [vchkpw] listing over-quota users
but wait, there is more!. :) in squirrelmail try moving a big email from inbox to some folder. open that folder and delete the email. quota usage won't change as it should. effectively, deletion from any folder other than INBOX will not change quota usage. there is plenty of inconsistencies like that all over the place.

Re: [vchkpw] listing over-quota users
this method is of course fast and dirty, but it might not work for everyone out there. the best aproach is to write a perl script that runs queries on a database, gets path to a user's mailbox on the server, uses File::Find to include only files in Maildir/cur and Maildir/new as well as :subfolders:/cur and :subfolders:/new with the exception of trash folders. that should give a much clearer picture. in addition it can scale better. -- Igor On Wed, Mar 09, 2005 at 08:08:10AM -0800, Charles J.

[vchkpw] User is over quota (whithout beeing over quota)
Hi guys, My users are reporting me they are receiving a warning message that they are over their user quota, but they know they are not over quota. Do you know some issue related to maildir quotas and vpopmail? I know about the qmail-pop3d-maildirquota.patch.gz file. In fact i've applied it over qmail but i started receiving duplicated (or triplicated, or more) messages on that server, so i had to backup to my old unpatched qmail binaries. Any comment/idea?

hi guys,
im using qmail,vpopmail 5.4.0 and psql. Im using pop before Smtp but it

[vchkpw] stopping mail by domains and ips
Hello .. what would be the best way to block certain domain names or ips i guess from sending mail .. like is there a way to stop it at smtp connections? rather then receiving the message, it being for no one in my domain, qmail creating a bounce, and the bounce bouncing? In my search i found the following .. ftp://ftp.pipeline.com.au/pipeint/sources/linux/WebMail/qmail-badmailfrom-badrcptto.patch.txt My question is would i apply this patch the same way as indicated with vpopmail, which is: patch ../qmail-badmailfrom-badrcptto.patch.txt Or would i have to apply something within the vpopmail home? Or is it best to just use /var/qmail/badmailfrom? thanks .. Regards

Qmail, vpopmail, courier-imapd, qmail-pop3d and squirrelmail, qmail-scanner, clamav(minor problems) this all works ... what I am trying to involve now is procmail and spamassassin there really isn't much documentation to get this all working especially under gentoo .. but I don't think there is much to configure with either of these packages .. .. so I was wondering if I'd get any help here .. I think that vpopmail being involved is what is confusing me .. most have the $HOME as /home/USER/.maildir well with vpopmail I have it as .. /var/vpopmail/domains/USER/Maildir/ and from there it is new, cur, etc .. also I do not see this X-Spam file anywhere? any help is appreciated .. thanks ..
[vchkpw] Bug in 5.3.20
After pulling my hair out attempting to figure out why password learning
did not work, I looked at vchkpw.c to see what the problem was. It appears
someone left a #ifdef FOOB write before password learning effectively
disabling that feature. I simply removed the ifdef and recompiled and it
worked. Just thought I should let someone know.

Hrm, well, I'm presuming that in place of the FQDN, you can simply put in an IP address? This box is just in the testing phase so I've put the IP in for the host name. But now, rather than accept anything, it's refusing everything. I know the passwd that I'm testing with is good (I can verify it in my ~vpopmail/domains/domain/vpasswd file), but it's just not giving me any love. The non-informative Evolution error message doesn't help at all either, so upon sniffing the network, I can see I'm getting a 535 authorization failed (#5.7.0) error. Anyone have ideas on this one? Could it possibly that that whatever's trying to access ~vpopmail/bin/vchkpw isn't able to due to permission problems? Hmmm... Thanks again, Bill

I've rebuilt bruceg's qmail RPM ( http://untroubled.org/qmail+patches/ ) and have updated it to use 0.31, but it appears that it's accepting mail even when prompted for the required username and password, you give it fudged values, i.e. a user account and passwd that I _know_ are invalid. It happily accepts these and sends out this mail -- not quite the sort of authentication I'd like :) Are you also seeing this behaviour with 0.31? Bill

However, even I pop all emails out, that file will not be removed and no more quota warning email will be sent if that user reach warning level again. Do I need to make a cron job remove this file?

Make sure you run your imap server as the same user as your pop server (so open-smtp and tcp.smtp have the same ownership). man couriertcpd for details, but you will change /usr/lib/courier- imap/libexec/imapd.rc something like this: Change this line: /usr/lib/courier-imap/libexec/couriertcpd -address=$ADDRESS \ To: /usr/lib/courier-imap/libexec/couriertcpd -address=$ADDRESS \ -user=vpopmail -group=vchkpw \ Regards, Bill Shupp END HERE -
[vchkpw] Re: more roaming user problems
Regis; I am having the same problem as you, only that I use courier-imap's pop3-ssl... I included the following lines in my vpopmail configuration: --enable-roaming-user=y --enable-tcpserver-file=/home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp --enable-relay-clear-minutes=60 I run qmail-smtpd with the following line (from lifewithqmail but with the path to tcp.smtp modified: exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 400 /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R -l 0 -x /home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -c $MAXSMTPD -u $QMAILUID -g $NOFILESGID 0 smtp /home/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd 21 I have the following files in /home/vpopmail/etc: -rw-rw-r--1 vpopmail vchkpw 83 Sep 25 19:13 tcp.smtp -rw-rw-r--1 vpopmail vchkpw 2179 Sep 25 22:40 tcp.smtp.cdb ...and I still only relay when I manually modify the tcp.smtp! I am lost, please... if anyone has ideas about this I will be very grateful =/ Thank you... Miguel rm escribió: After several months of getting by with sqwebmail for remote users, we've decided to add the enable roaming users option. It seemed simple enough in reading the docs and the archive messages on this subject. But I seem to have missed something. My configure line is: ./configure --enable-roaming-user=y --enable-tcpserver-file=/home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp --enable-relay-clear-minutes=60 --enable-mysql-logging=y --enable-clear-passwd=y --enable-incdir=/usr/include --enable-libdir=/usr/lib --enable-mysql=y --enable-mysql-replication=y --enable-valias=y I modified the smtp run file to use the correct path to /home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp - originally I used the life with qmail example - so the modified file looks like this: #!/bin/sh QMAILDUID=`id -u qmaild` NOFILESGID=`id -g qmaild` MAXSMTPD=`cat /var/qmail/control/concurrencyincoming` LOCAL=`head -1 /var/qmail/control/me` if [ -z $QMAILDUID -o -z $NOFILESGID -o -z $MAXSMTPD -o -z $LOCAL ]; then echo QMAILDUID, NOFILESGID, MAXSMTPD, or LOCAL is unset in echo /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd/run exit 1 fi exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 400 \ /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R -l $LOCAL -x /home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -c $MAXSMTPD \ -u $QMAILDUID -g $NOFILESGID 0 smtp /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd 21 I copied the tcp.smtp and the tcp.smtp.cdb file from /etc into /home/vpopmail/etc I also tried to add /dev/null at the end of the smtp run file, as shown in the FAQ example; but when I add that - the smtp server won't start. In any event - remote logins keep getting the error message recipient not in allowed rcpt hosts when they try to send mail. Any ideas on what I've missed here? Thanks, Regis
[vchkpw] roaming users don't work
Hello, I'm having problems with roaming users, I am using vpopmail5.2.1 and courier-imap1.5.3, i compiled vpopmail with: --enable-roaming-users=y --enable-tcpserver-file=/home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp --enable-relay-clear-minutes=60 ..but it just doesn't seem to work, i mean... i cannot relay unless I modify /etc/tcp.smtp (and then creating tcp.smtp.cdb) manually... any ideas? /home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp and /home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp are always empty... i followed the lifewithqmail instructions to install and run qmail so i am running smtp and stuff with the following line: exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 400 /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R -l 0 -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -c $MAXSMTPD -u $QMAILUID -g $NOFILESGID 0 smtp /home/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd 21 ...on /service/qmail-smtp/run script. anyone can help me?? please, i am lost =/ Thank you.

Quota Config
Hello to all. Just want to share this one... I sent a letter to the list yesterday regarding my quota problem. I'm running vpopmail 5.0 with qmail 1.03 and qmailadmin 0.88. I was using vsetuserquota user@domain 300 to set a 3MB quota for a certain user. Well it was not working. But then I tried '3MB' instead of 300 and now it's working fine. Don't know if it really was the solution but that was the only change that I have made.
Access To All Mailboxes
Hello. Just want to ask if there is an available feature that allows a certain user (say postmaster) to view the contents of a particular mailbox. I have a lot of users that are not able to log in because they have reached the quota. When this happens, they can only see a black screen and can't do anything anymore. If I am able to access their mailbox, then I can delete some mails for them to free up some space. With this feature, I may now give this responsibility to our support staff. Thanks and more power.

I am using RedHat 7.1 stock kernel. The NFS is pretty stable. With the exception of the roaming users. With the amount of concurrency that I run the file has a hard time being updated and if the file can't be updated the POP session crashes. Not a problem with vpopmail or NFS. So my next step is to use the patched version of tcpserver to pull the relays from a database. Now also as a point my NFS is running on a private network. So each box uses 2 interfaces one for NFS stuff alone and the other to handle all the service requests. This is completly by design becuase all of the software runs off of the NFS mount. The only thing that is local to the individual servers is a stripped base RedHat installation and qmail's queue directory.
