Re: [vchkpw] realrcppto
There should be no problem, except some flags (I don't remember exactly which) that may be missing in the 5.2 vpopmail headers. I suggest to try, and eventually modify the code where necessary. Write me if you have any problems. Ciao, Tonino At 21/01/2004 21/01/2004 -0500, Rick Macdougall wrote: Martin wrote: http://www.interazioni.it/qmail/#qmail-smtpd Works great here.

Hi, Never tried it against 5.2.2 but there should be no reason it wouldn't work since it is a qmail-smtpd patch, not a vpopmail patch. I personally have it running on about 30 or 40 servers running 5.3.20 and I believe 2 servers running 5.4.0-rc2 (or what ever the latest release is). Everything just works.

Basically, it holds the SMTP open whilst it checks if the user or .qmail control files exists. If not, it gives a: 550 sorry, no mailbox here by that name. (#5.1.1) and closes the SMTP connection. Looking at the vpopmail directories, I had a .qmail-default with the bounce no mailbox so I renamed this and created Two control files .qmail-marrandy and .qmail-martin with delivery instructions for the Two users. I get deliveries to these accounts but qmail/vpopmail still takes delivery of bogus usernames and then bounces them later. I am obviously missing something, but despite checking around, can't see why it isn't working. that patch just checks to see if there's a .qmail file to handle the delivery. It doesn't actually attempt delivery at that time. Therefore, vpopmail can't say hey, that mailbox doesn't exist. If you're running a vpopmail only machine, that patch is useless. -Jeremy -- Jeremy Kitchen [EMAIL PROTECTED]
