Pete, In the free version you can check "Enable SMTP Authentication" and just add your local IP ranges in "Do NOT Authenticate..." It's done a bit differently in Plus and Pro. - Phil - Original Message - From: "Peter Lindeman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, June 05, 2002 6:45 PM Subject: [xmail] Re: IMAP Service in XMail > > Tracy wrote: > > > mail server is running on - but still a lot of overhead, especially for > > MIME encoded messages (it's necessary to read the entire message to > > determine if there are file attachments, because it's necessary to see each > > content-type entry in the message). > > You don't have to do that, you can use the "TOP" command in POP3 to > retrieve just the headers and parse them. > > -- > Groeten, > Peter > > -- > Who the hell is General Failure and why is he reading my drive ? > > --- > --- Heb je een Sony Digital video camera ? > --- Kijk eens op http://www.dvin.org > --- Kijk ook op http://www.lindeman.org > --- ICQ 22383596 > --- Uptime lindeman.org : 122 days, 2 hours and 56 minutes, 0 users > logged in. > > > - > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in > the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Yes, for the "master" content-type entry there. However, for MIME encoded mail messages, there are additional content-type entries distributed through the body. For example, one of the test messages I sent myself contains the following in the header (the "" and "" portions are used as delimiters here and do not appear in the actual header or message): Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="=_15920718==_" Then, in the body, it contains: --=_15920718==_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed --=_15920718==_ Content-Type: text/html; name="A Valid HTML File Name.htm" Content-Transfer-Encoding: x-uuencode Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="A Valid HTML File Name.htm" It is entirely possible to have dozens of these content type blocks scattered through the body of an e-mail. And without parsing them, it's not possible to tell if the content in the mail is simply text and HTML, or if there's a real attachment, or whatever else might be there...

[xmail] Re: IMAP Service in XMail
Hi Davide, I think you have some vision how to organize e-mail at POP3 server instead of using IMAP. I personally have migrated to IMAP because of buggy e-mail client (Outlook Express), - with message rules to sort incoming messages into different mailboxes it often forget that it had taken message and takes it from server each connection. In situation I want to have access to this mail from work and from home I can not delete messages after retrieving... After being migrated to UW-IMAP I thought there was more efficient solution - to duplicate messages for two mail users. One - me at home and other at work. Is there others IMAP features which may be done with filters and other mail processing features of XMail? Sergey Ivanov.

You don't have to do that, you can use the "TOP" command in POP3 to retrieve just the headers and parse them. -- Groeten, Peter -- Who the hell is General Failure and why is he reading my drive ? --- --- Heb je een Sony Digital video camera ? --- Kijk eens op http://www.dvin.org --- Kijk ook op http://www.lindeman.org --- ICQ 22383596 --- Uptime lindeman.org : 122 days, 2 hours and 56 minutes, 0 users logged in. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Amen to that... I'm in the process of writing a web based client for reading e-mail, and I'm having the headaches of having to maintain local state for e-mail so that any changes the user makes (such as deleting messages) can be reflected back to the server. Of course, I'm doing this through POP3 sessions with the mail server (retrieving the headers, parsing them, displaying the relevant info for the user, letting them view or delete, etc), so it's not necessarily being done on the same server as the mail server is running on - but still a lot of overhead, especially for MIME encoded messages (it's necessary to read the entire message to determine if there are file attachments, because it's necessary to see each content-type entry in the message). - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I hope you are implementing IMAP as a separate module/program and not bloating xmail server for the rest of us. Is this right?

[xmail] XMail Configuration
I'm currently running XMail with 1500+ users in 30+ domains, it runs under redhat in a Celeron 500 with 256MbRam. In the same machine is also running apache, mysql, and a proFTP, irc and djdDNS servers. Every couple of hours the mail systems seem to get froxen and it take really long time to answer POP3 and SMTP request, but for example apache, mysql or proFTP seem not to be afected. Aparently when XMail forks more than 40 process it begins to slow down. I've try to change the number of POP3 and SMTP (-SX -PX) but there is no chage. Can anybody help me with this? thanks - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I stopped accepting external contributions because 99% of the code i received sucked so bad that it was not even funny. I used to spend all my spare time that usually spend doing interesting stuff ( XMail is one of these ) to review other guys code, and believe me it's not fun. XMail has my name stuck on it and if it sucks, i suck. And i do not like to suck. If you need IMAP urgently you can use, like other users did, an UW-IMAP integration. Or if you feel good about coding, you can also adapt IMAP2000 to work by picking up files directly inside XMail mailboxes. The CTRL protocol has a command that can be used to auth users, just for a hint. Hope this will clarify enough the XMail's IMAP roadmap. - Davide - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
