[vchkpw] may I convert the users and passwords in the file /etc/passwd into the users and passwords of qmail?
hi, every guy. I have a question about user and password. I'm planing to setup a email server using qmail, and now I have had a email server with sendmail running on linux 7.0, my question is, that may I convert the users and passwords of sendmail, which use the file /etc/passwd as its list of users, into the users and passwords of qmail,which will use virtual domain and virtual users of itself, without any operations of adding user and renew password? I don't want to use the file /etc/passwd as the user file of qmail this time. any guy could give me some advices? thank you very much. Best Regards. lawy [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[vchkpw] Sorry, no mailbox here by that name. vpopmail (#5.1.1)
first of all im sorry if this a dupe, I somehow found out how to post to the archive (search - newtopic) thinking it was a forum, then realizing its a mailing list I thought it proably didnt make it to the list the first time... ok, I have used vpopmail before and I cant figure out the problem... Im running debian testing, it links qmail so it behaves like a normal install... I apt'd qmail and ucspi-tcp, I compiled vpopmail normally only with a default domain... Ive ./vaddomain dragon.bz and nayr.net with a couple users, I am able to pop the accounts just fine, but when I try to send email to the addresses from a my lycos account I get the reply.. Hi. This is the qmail-send program at gohan.dragon.bz. I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses. This is a permanent error; I've given up.

It totally eliminates the .cdb files One of the benefits of this is it allows you to easily write web based tools (eg in ASP or PHP) that can talk to the database and then present easy to use interface for your support staff to manage the user accounts. Also, you can add additional columns to the database to store other per-user information without affecting the operation of vpopmail If you are having trouble compiling/installing vpopmail w/MySQL, I have a quick guide available online at http://www.pipeline.com.au/staff/mbowe/isp/vpopmail-mysql.htm Maybe take a look there to see if it helps solve your install problems.

Re: [vchkpw] Vpopmail Debian - Problem sending Mials
Zeno Davatz writes: What will this help me? It's just a cleaner and nicer way of doing it. qmail-conf sets up the run script that way. Functionally, there is no difference. Now on my online setup I got the following problem: In my office I am sitting behind a firewall. I got a t1 connection but I do _not_have_a fix IP. I am obviously sending mails only from the domains listed in rcpthosts but somehow I still get the 5.7.1 error! Argh. That is good. It means you aren't an open relay. If you authenticate via POP3 first, then you should be able to send mail from that IP. Do I have to check this or has this already been done automatically? The POP-before-SMTP stuff is automatic. That is why you use the tcp.smtp.cdb file in the vpopmail/etc directory. clearopensmtp is not automatic, as the vpopmail makefile will not go adding things to crontab for you. I do believe that Debian vpopmail package sets this up. However, it just requires adding a single like to root's crontab: 40 * * * * root /path/to/vpopmail/bin/clearopensmtp /dev/null 21 -- David Phillips [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://david.acz.org/

Qmail won't deliver to root for security reasons. Setup a /var/qmail/alias/.qmail-root file to forward root's mail to a non root user account.
