When using vpopmail to do virtual domains, you need to include the domain name in the username you use to pick up mail from the server. That's the only way the POP/IMAP server can know what domain the user belongs to. -- Tom Collins [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[vchkpw] Re: [qmailadmin] Quotas

qmailadmin list:
vmoduser needs to be updated to write a properly formatted
data to the field. Currently, it just writes the information

Note: I was unable to find any versions of vpopmail newer than 5.3.16.
Where can I get 5.3.19? I also saw mention of a 5.3.21 in another
email...
Anyway, here's a patch for vmoduser to properly format the quota. It
understands the following formats for the -q option, and will convert
all sizes to #S format:
10M (10,485,760 bytes)
500K (512,000 bytes)
10.5M (11,010,048 bytes)
100 (1,000,000 bytes)
NOQUOTA (no quota)
100S,1000C (1,000,000 bytes or 1000 messages)
100C (100 messages)
Note that I'm not sure whether 100C is a valid quota. I know that
qmailadmin can't handle it.

It has some good advice, but I didn't see any mention of refusing mail from hosts without reverse DNS. It does talk about refusing mail based on the FQDN that reverse DNS resolves to (section 2.5), but I think it's a stretch to extend that to IP addresses that don't have reverse DNS. I agree with others that the first post should have gone to Inter7 (perhaps [EMAIL PROTECTED]) and not this list. If someone wants to add spam filters to their personal mail server that deny mail from hosts without reverse DNS, that's fine with me. If they think it's a good idea and tell others about it, I think it's a good idea for others to provide constructive feedback on why they disagree. If it's true that spammers don't have reverse DNS on their IP addresses, I wouldn't mind seeing the MTA adding a header like X-Possible-Spam: Host 209.218.8.2 does not have reverse DNS. and even X-Possible-Spam: Host 209.218.8.2 resolves to spam.com which does not resolve to 209.218.8.2.

This is something I was doing about 8 years ago on a sendmail system (and JT probably remembers it as well). In your case, just have a copy of the email go to another account, and set up a .qmail file for that account that pipes the message through a program or script of some sort. In our case, we were using Perl for its text munging capabilities. The Perl program would go through the headers and decide on whether the mail should even be forwarded to the alpha-pager (e.g., ignore mailing lists, etc.). If it was worthy of forwarding, another part of the script would modify the message to get as much information across as possible. It used F: S: B: to show the From, Subject and Body. From would use just the name on the account, and munge it to an abbreviation for common senders, subject and body would go through more modifiers that did things like replace with with w/ and from with f/. Some of the users would even StripWhitespaceFromTheMessageAndInlineCapitalizeEverything to get more in each message.

Subject: [qmailadmin] template .qmail file
Perhaps this is a strange request, but here goes...
It would be nice to have a template .qmail file that gets coppied into the vpopmail user's directory when creating a new user. This would work sort of like how useradd takes /etc/skel and copies those files into the new user's home dir.
Reason for this?
I want to be able to use the .qmail file to call a script that filters spam (using the spamassassin spamc/spamd)
Perhaps there's a better way to do this using qmail (filtering at the queue level perhaps)? Any suggestions are more than welcome.
Anyways, the .qmail file will work for now. I was able to hack the user.c addusernow() function so that it copies a .qmail file into the new user's directory. If anybody is interested in how I did this let me know... its a pretty ugly hack though.
Ryan / Plastic Portal
MM Recordings http://www.mmrecordings.com
This request is probably more appropriate for vpopmail development.
Could one of the vpopmail developers consider submitting a patch to make_user_dir that would copy a default .qmail file (perhaps from ~vpopmail/etc?) into the new user's directory?
You could insert the code here:
if ( chdir(username) != 0 ) {
chdir(tmpbuf); free(tmpbuf); free(tmpdir);
printf( make_user_dir: error 2\n);
return(NULL);
}
/* insert code to copy default .qmail file */
if (mkdir(Maildir,VPOPMAIL_DIR_MODE) == -1){
chdir(tmpbuf); free(tmpbuf); free(tmpdir);
printf(make_user_dir: error 3\n);
return(NULL);
}

If you don't have that luxury, I think you can use smtproutes on the old server to force it to relay the mail to the new server.

That's the portion of vpopmail that authenticates a user, and (I think) returns the path to the maildir. It might be possible to add an extra table to the database of special username to full email lookups (like 23433 - [EMAIL PROTECTED] and john_smith_foobar_com - [EMAIL PROTECTED]). You could modify vchkpw to check that database and then use the actual email address for subsequent lookups. If you use SquirrelMail or SqWebMail, it might not work (since the web mail program would have the wrong email address). You might even be able to do something wacky like store the special username in the GECOS (Real Name field in QmailAdmin) field of the user record. That would allow for easy management via qmailadmin. Users would also be able to switch over to the proper username/password for their address, allowing you to support the old and new login methods.

I'm not arguing here, just expressing my ignorance... Why? I currently use things like |/usr/local/bin/spamc | /home/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' /home/vpopmail/domains/example.com/username in my .qmail-user files, when i do not want spamc to be invoked for each user in the domain Based on my understanding, vdelivermail has a somewhat deceptive name. Many people (myself included) thought it would just accept the mail and do whatever you requested as the last parameter (bounce-no-mailbox, deleted, directory for delivery, etc.). In reality, vdelivermail uses environment variables set by qmail-local to try to find the appropriate user and deliver the mail to them. It only delivers to the last parameter if it can't find a match. So, as we learned with the 1.0.19 release of qmailadmin, setting up a user fred with a .qmail file containing vdelivermail would result in an infinite loop of vdelivermail calling itself. Here's how: qmail-local looks for .qmail-fred in the domain's directory. Since .qmail-fred doesn't exist, qmail-local delivers the message to .qmail-default which contains vdelivermail. vdelivermail looks for a user fred in the domain's directory. Having found fred, it checks for a .qmail file before just dropping the message in fred's Maildir. Having found a .qmail file, it processes it. The first line of the .qmail file starts with |, indicating program delivery, so vdelivermail sends the message to the program (which is vdelivermail). On the second call, vdelivermail once again looks for a user fred in the domain's directory. Having found fred, it checks for a .qmail file... And we're stuck in a loop. Instead of using vdelivermail, you may need to use maildrop (Jeff Hedlund can provide details on that one) to process the email and drop it in the user's Maildir. It might be helpful to add another program (vstoremail?) to the vpopmail distribution that would accept a message in STDIN and save it to the Maildir specified as the first parameter. Then it would be possible to have entries in your .qmail file like |/usr/local/bin/spamc | /home/vpopmail/bin/vstoremail /home/vpopmail/domains/example.com/fred/Maildir/ vstoremail would take care of file locking/naming/etc. and exit with the proper error code. -- Tom Collins [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://sniffter.com/ - info on the Sniffter hand-held Network Tester

What functions does authdaemon make use of in libvpopmail? libvpopmail may need a major overhaul and review for memory leaks, especially if it's like QmailAdmin. Since QmailAdmin runs as a CGI, no one has been very careful about freeing allocated memory when it's done being used. I'm not sure if similar coding practices are present in vpopmail. I'm not sure how to address the library problem. I've come across it, and anyone who halfway knows what they're doing should know how to get around it, but we all (sqwebmail and vpopmail lists) still get people who have problems with it. This sounds fixable by the patch I just saw that keeps the authentication information in a seperate file. Are there any objections to doint this and relaxing the restrictions on the lib directory (at least make it executable) and the actual library file (make it readable)? The hard-coded login information was the only valid reason I remember for having the lib permissions like that. Anyone? I liked that patch, and I want to integrate it into an upcoming release (with review from others of course). I agree that the MySQL information should live in a non-world-readable file owned by vpopmail, perhaps stored in ~vpopmail/etc instead of /var/qmail/control. Does anyone see a reason it should be hardcoded into the lib? I've never seen this problem really anaylzed and properly investigated on the vpopmail side. I really would like sqwebmail and vpopmail to work well together, it would be quite a shame to lose the interoperability over some bugs that should really be fixed regardless. I'm not intimately familiar with sqwebmail, but I'll commit to fixing whatever is broken in vpopmail. Should I just examine authvchkpw.c to see how it interfaces to vpopmail, and work on the parts of vpopmail that it touches? Otherwise, it will probably be necessary to review each function in vpopmail to make sure it could be called repeatedly, work properly, and not leak memory. -- Tom Collins [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://sniffter.com/ - info on the Sniffter hand-held Network Tester

I've read the code for vpopmail, and although it's written to industry standards, it's crap. Total and unmitigated crap. Fixed-length buffers everywhere, #ifdef every time you turn around, null-terminated strings instead of counted strings, it's crap; crap, crap, crap. I understand that not everybody can afford a custom-crafted solution from Crynwr Software, but sometimes you only get what you pay for in the open source world. I can't really disagree with him. I've done a lot of work on the qmailadmin source recently, and I'm getting into the vpopmail source now. It is poorly written code. There are opportunities for buffer overflows in many places. Code is duplicated where it should be replaced with functions. Some of the code is very inefficient. There are a lot of static, fixed-length buffers that could be replaced by dynamically-allocated buffers of the proper size. It uses global variables. It isn't well documented. But, it works. It works surprisingly well and I think it's a great way to do virtual domains with qmail. I see this as an opportunity for improvement. One of my goals of contributing to the vpopmail/qmailadmin projects is to clean the up. Make them more efficient and more secure. I'm hoping that by doing so, others will take an interest and be encouraged to contribute patches that fix large sections of code, instead of just adding ugly band-aids on already ugly code. -- Tom Collins [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://sniffter.com/ - info on the Sniffter hand-held Network Tester

Instead of storing the information in a file, it's stored in a database table. We haven't decided yet whether QmailAdmin will be compiled to use both valias and .qmail-user files simultaneously. When switching over to valias support, we might require the admin to run a tool to move all aliases into the table. Or, we could read from both the valias table and .qmail-user files to display settings, and save new and updated forwards to the table (deleting the .qmail-user file once successful). We do know that valias support in QmailAdmin will wait until we have a stable version to release, which should be soon.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/vpopmail/ Release Notes: This release corrects various errors in the 5.3.22 and 5.3.23 releases. It should now compile properly on FreeBSD, and it shouldn't segfault when trying to add or remove a domain. Charles Boening supplied some needed updates to the pgsql code, and we have a few other maintenance fixes as well. Changelog: Tom Collins - Removed all references to timezone to be POSIX compliant. Now uses gmtime() with + for date header. - Fixed bug in my updated vget_assign that caused segfaults in many cases (including running vadddomain and vdeldomain). Michael Bowe - Update vget_assign calls with NULL directory pointer to use 0 for buffer size. - Add missing backslashes (\) to vpgsql.h (see 5.3.21 vmysql.h). - Check for NULL return when calling vauth_getpw() in vldap.c. Charles Boening - Update configure.in to work for pgsql compiles. - Add --enable-pgsql-logging configure option. - Add vauth_crypt() to vpgsql.c. Yann St. Arnaud - Remove #ifdef FOOB from vchkpw.c to re-enable ENABLE_LEARN_PASSWORDS feature. Jens Jahr - Support for clear text passwords when using LDAP. Oden Eriksson - Remove unnecessary errno declaration in cdb/cdb_seek.c. Evren Yurtesen - Added contrib/sendmail2vpopmail.pl for converting from sendmail aliases and virtusertable entries to vpopmail domains.

[vchkpw] vpopmail 5.2.2 beta available
Michael Bowe has taken the time to back-port many of the bugfixes from the 5.3 series to 5.2.1. We have a tentative release of 5.2.2 available on the SourceForge site (as vpopmail-beta) for those who want to test it out. http://sourceforge.net/projects/vpopmail/ Release Notes: This is a beta release of 5.2.2. It has not been thoroughly tested, so it isn't quite stable yet. It includes backports of many bugfixes from the 5.3 series, and will ultimately replace 5.2.1. After some people have tested it on non-production machines, we will reclassify it as stable. Change Log: 5.2.2 Michael Bowe [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Back ported these fixes from 5.3.23 and earlier for an interim stable release : vmysql.h - fix missing backslashes [5.3.21] - fix for logging being too verbose [5.3.14] vcdb.c - vset_lastauth() - fix for unchecked return of vauth_getpw() [5.3.17] vldap.c - vset_lastauth() - fix for unchecked return of vauth_getpw() [5.3.24] vchkpw.c - fix buffer overflows USER/HOME [5.3.22] - fix exit codes for NO_POP [5.3.7] - fix mysql logging being too verbose [5.3.14] vpopmail.c - replace parse_email() to fix courier/sqwebmail authdaemon problems [v5.3.5] - vgetent() - support for old vpaddwd files without cleartext field [5.3.20] - vset_default_domain() - support courier's IPv6 TCPLOCALIP [5.3.12] vdelivermail.c - main() - add support for autoresoponder's error 99 and 100 [5.3.9] - process_valias() - catch error on return from deliver_mail() [5.3.21] - deliver_mail() - Process progs before maildirs [5.3.10], Add support for comments [5.3.21] - check_forward_deliver() - add support for comments [5.3.21] - usernotfound() - replace with newer version to handle catchalls etc [5.3.21] - maildirtoemail() - fix to handle hashed userdirs [v5.3.22] vpopbull.c - replace with newest version [5.3.17] vconvert.c - replace with newest versions [5.3.23] cdb_seek.c - remove extern int errno [5.3.24] - replace qmail-pop3d-maildirquota.patch with qmail-maildir++.patch - update ChangeLog

I would gladly accept such a patch. This is on the todo list for vpopmail, and I'd love to cross it out. Being able to install vpopmail to /usr/local would be a great improvement.

[vchkpw] vpopmail 5.3.25 and 5.3.26 released
http://sourceforge.net/projects/vpopmail/ Michael Bowe has done some incredible work with cleaning up the vpopmail source. He's added comments and tried to eliminate possible buffer overflows throughout most of the codebase. The 5.3.26 release should be feature-identical to the 5.3.25 release, but includes all of Michael's changes. If you have a problem with 5.3.26, please test 5.3.25 first to see if the problem was already present, or was introduced in Michael's massive update. Numbers in square brackets refer to the SourceForge Tracker item related to the change. 5.3.25 - released 26-Aug-03 More bug fixes, with the following important new features: 1) MySQL settings are now stored in ~vpopmail/etc/vpopmail.mysql instead of vmysql.h. Read README.mysql for details. 2) The install process should allow you to install to /usr/local without totally trashing your other programs. ChangeLog: Tom Collins - Fix code in vdelivermail.c that builds Delivered-To header on catchall emails. (strips domain- from [EMAIL PROTECTED]) [785604] - Convert vpgsql.c from DOS to Unix format (strip \r). [785680] - Modified Makefile.am to allow installs to /usr/local instead of /home/vpopmail (uses install, doesn't chmod/chown). [787551] - Polished vpopmail-5.2-vmysql.patch ported by Oden. [791405] - If configured to use MySQL, Makefile.am creates a sample vpopmail.mysql if one doesn't exist and makes it read/write for vpopmail.vchkpw only. - Added tracker item numbers to ChangeLog for all closed trackers. - Updated INSTALL and FAQ with links to SourceForge. Oden Eriksson - Ported vpopmail-5.2-vmysql.patch to 5.3.24. [778502, 791405] - Added sparse documentation how to use it. Justin Heesemann - Fix vdominfo to show correct domain for alias domains when displaying all domains. [785241] - Add vmoddomlimits program to modify domain limits. Works for both vlimits and .qmailadmin-limits methods. - Add V_OVERRIDE user flag for users who aren't affected by domain limits (.qmailadmin-limits or vlimits). - Update authentication modules to apply domain limits to users. (Currently disabled pending solution to SF BUG 795688.) Evren Yurtesen - Add cleartext support to vconvert (when converting MySQL to cdb). [785690] Michael Bowe - More cleanup in vget_assign() calls. [785735] - Allow vget_assign() to return real domain when passed alias. [785682] - Fix error messages in vmysql.c.
