[xmail] XMAIL filter to process undelivered messages
Hello, I run XMAIL on Windows 2000 server. Using the XMAIL server, I send newsletters every week or so to tens of thousands of E-mail addresses. Many messages of course are never delivered and bounces back to Errors-To address. My question is: Is there a filter for XMAIL that can handle such bounced messages, and launch an external process for example for each message that bounces back? Anyone has done such a filter? Thanks. /Noor - 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]
[xmail] Limiting incoming connections
Hello, I'm going to send a personalized newsletter to tens of thousands of subscribers in our website. Last time I did so and asked our XMAIL-based SMTP server to handle the send, it didn't accept more than few tens of messages before disconnecting repetitive connections. I know this is a limit imposed by XMAIL. The question is: how do I disable that limit for a specific IP, or a list of IP's? Thanks in advance. /Noor - 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]

[xmail] Processing queue
Hello, Continuous to my previous posting regarding the newsletter: Supposing that XMAIL's queue has few messages and all directed to one domain (has same destination MX server), will XMAIL open one TCP connection to port 25 of destination server, and then sends all messages one after one using the same connection (separated with QUIT), or connects then disconnects after each message?

[xmail] ALIASES/USERS Precedence
Hello all, Given a domain that has the following configuration: -- A POP user named 'someuser', and its email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- A mailing list 'forward', that has an alias '*' (that means everything@domain.test) -- The member of the mailing list 'forward' is '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' My question is: if I send an email message to [EMAIL PROTECTED], which of the two legal addresses would take precedence? Will the message get delivered to someuser's POP, or forwarded to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or maybe both?

[xmail] Problems with POP3
Hello, I run XMAIL 1.20 which I installed few days ago. We have few POP accounts for the company, and the domain's MX records of course point to this XMAIL box. We all use Microsoft Outlook 2000 or XP to fetch from the POP3 server. I have a weird case that I'm seeing for few users here. If they have an E-mail message that exceeds few MB's, say 3MB's, Outlook continuously downloads it and never deletes it from the server. In other cases, Outlook reports that the connection to server has been cut and it couldn't download all messages. Now I know for a fact that the network is OK and disconnections are not likely. Outlook never deletes those large messages, and worse than that, it keeps downloading it from the POP3 server over and over again. When I get into the mailbox using WAI's Web interface and delete those large messages, then Outlook works correctly and doesn't get stuck with subsequent messages. Any idea how to even debug this problem? /Noor - 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]
[xmail] A decent anti-spam solution for XMAIL
Hello, I am looking for a good solution for anti-spam that plugs into XMAIL. I know there are many Perl and Python solutions, but I am looking for a solution with C/C++ code that compiles into a .DLL or .EXE executable, with no 3rd party shells. Actually, the best would be a solution that can listen to port 25, receive the incoming/outgoing message, and if it passes few checks, like a Bayesian threshold, it'll forward it to the real XMAIL SMTP server for delivery. Any idea if there is such a solution available and for a decent price?

[xmail] Re: Catch-All configuration for a domain
Hello David, Any idea when you'd integrate this feature in XMAIL? I am in need of this feature to make the move from Postfix to XMAIL... By the way, if you put a MAILPROC.TAB in ~/domains/domain.name/ and make XMAIL aware of its existance, it could be domain.name-wide for all its users. This sounds a good plan. What do you think?

Sure Bill. In Postfix, I had a file named ``virtual`` that had two columns, left one is the source address/alias/domain, and the right is the destination/forwarded email address(es).

[xmail] Re: Catch-All configuration for a domain
Hi Bill, Thanks for the detailed explanation. I understood everything you've written, and I'm sure that I could do that in XMAIL. The one thing that is missing, still, is the ability to forward an E-mail without knowing where it's going. Think of it like this: I only know the domain name, and I want to forward each and every message that that domain is getting, to another e-mail address. What you suggested works well when I know that a specific USER wants to forward all messages to another EMAIL. What I am asking is how to forward an entire DOMAIN, regardless of the [EMAIL PROTECTED], to another EMAIL address. Do you get it?

Noor Noor, This can be done in XMail right now, using the standard means for editing settings. Frankly, my favorite way to do this is using one of the GUI/Web style interfaces available. My favorite is at: https://sourceforge.net/projects/phpxmail In any case, you would first create an alias for the domain.name domain, with global pointing to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (assuming you control another-domain.name. if you don't, it should be set up a forward in mailproc.tab). If you were directly editing your aliases.tab file, it would look like this: domain.name[tab]global[tab][EMAIL PROTECTED] You would then set up all the aliases that point to the global address: domain.name[tab]info[tab][EMAIL PROTECTED] domain.name[tab]jobs[tab][EMAIL PROTECTED] domain.name[tab]support[tab][EMAIL PROTECTED] For the one user address, that would be domain.name[tab]user[tab][EMAIL PROTECTED] e If both the global and user domains are forwards to different mailservers, they would be stored in: /var/MailRoot/domains/domain.name/global/mailproc.tab and /var/MailRoot/domains/domain.name/user/mailproc.tab and where /var/MailRoot/domains/domain.name/global/mailproc.tab looks like: redirect[tab][EMAIL PROTECTED] and /var/MailRoot/domains/domain.name/user/mailproc.tab looks like: redirect[tab][EMAIL PROTECTED] Your last rule is done using the aliasdomains.tab file: same-domain.name[tab]domain.name Let me know of any of this helps (or if you get confused, or if I've got it all wrong).
