[courier-users] FAM problems

I take it this has been discussed before, but if the fix was mentioned, 
I've missed it. Running portmapper as suggested in one of the archives 
does not help:

[courier-users] Multiple virtual email domains with SqWebmail

2003-06-29 Thread Juha Saarinen
Could someone please remind me which steps to take, or point me to an
online doco, for setting up SqWebmail to access multiple virtual email
domains?

The virtual domains are accessible via Courier-IMAP, through userdb
authentication. The users have imappw set -- is that enough, or do you
need systempw set as well?

This is a bit off-topic for the list, but the above is correct because
blackholes.mail-abuse.org is a zone, and not a host. Hence no A record,
but you do get the NS records.

Try something like this for A records:

~$ dig 189.45.242.194.blackholes.mail-abuse.org. +short

If the IP address in question is listed, you'll have 127.0.0.2 returned.

I think you're missing the point here. Sam and other software packagers
make reasonable assumptions based on standard installations of e.g. RHL.
FAM and Xinetd are installed by RHL by default with RHL.

Of course, some people remove these or add something else. In doing so,
another assumption is reasonable: that these people know what they're
doing, and are capable of working with a non-standard distribution instead
of griping about it on mailing lists.

I could be wrong, but by not building RPM packages from the tarball and by

you're setting yourself up for a serious amount of mysterious errors and
time-wasting.

You could try to locate the 'authtest' program and run that to see if
it'll give you any useful diagnostics, but if I were you, I'd seriously
consider starting from scratch, using a method that's known to work

For Red Hat, you are better off building RPM packages (as a normal user)

and then installing them as root or through sudo. This is documented on the
Courier site, I think.

 configure: warning: expect not found - will not be able to change

Do 'rpm -q expect'. If you don't get something like:

expect-5.32.2-67

then locate the rpm package on the Internet or from your RHL CDs, and
install it.

Try telnetting into port 110 and 143 to see if anything's listening on

Re: Building RPMs again (was RE: [courier-users] Allow relay fromany IP if authenticated)

2002-07-17 Thread Juha Saarinen

On Thu, 18 Jul 2002, Bill Michell wrote:

  Not evil, perhaps, but not trivial.

  I'm trying to build the rpms for the latest courier release version, on a
  SUSE 7.2 system, following all the instructions I have managed to track down
  so far...

  I need to modify the install directories by editing the spec file because,
  for example, the apache home directory is actually at /usr/local/httpd

  Then I start to hit problems - the faq doesn't make clear exactly how you
  use that spec file to build your RPMs - I have successfully overwritten my
  changes now several times. Should I be using the -ta option to rpm, or -tb,
  or something else? Oh - and there was a message on the mailing list suggests
  using ~ in the .rpmmacros file; this doesn't work too well (on SuSE at
  least) - you need to use either $HOME, or hard-code the value. Otherwise you
  see odd messages about inability to copy locale files to courier.spec, which
  is obviously nonsense.

  Second, if I try and build the RPMs as non-root, I can't actually complete
  the process because /sbin/chkconfig is in the sbin directory, and ordinary
  users don't have access to that directory, which is reasonable, since stuff
  goes in the sbin directory, rather than bin, for a reason.

  So; if building RPMs is the recommended way to install courier, but anyone
  not building for RedHat will have to use a custom .spec file in addition to
  xflags, could the FAQ (or even INSTALL) be updated with simple instructions
  on how to do this, instructions that actually work?

http://www.courier-mta.org/install.html should probably make it more clear
that the SPEC file in the tarball is for Red Hat only. SuSE uses a
different file system layout, as you've noticed, ditto Mandrake as others
have pointed out.

'rpm -ta source.tar.gz' builds both the binary and source packages,
whereas 'rpm -tb' builds just the binary ones. Either one will work.

You could always make life easy for yourself, and switch to Red Hack. ;-)

RE: Building RPMs again (was RE: [courier-users] Allow relay fromany IP if authenticated)

2002-07-17 Thread Juha Saarinen

On Thu, 18 Jul 2002, Bill Michell wrote:

  Actually, both INSTALL and the .spec file itself were clear that it was
  designed for RH.

OK, so that would seem to be a fair warning of trouble ahead, when
building for different RPM-based systems. I've seen RPMs of Courier-IMAP
at least floating around on the Internet, so you could probably snag the
SPEC file used to build those, and use it as a template.

  My point was that the information on how to build RPMs with both custom
  paths *and* custom configure options was scattered around INSTALL, the FAQ
  and the mailing list, and that some of the information I found there is not
  completely correct.

Send Sam a patch?

  Also, when it is recommended that building from RPMs should be done as
  non-root, it is strange that a file in /sbin should be referenced at all.

I can build the RPMs as non-root, even though chkconfig is in /sbin, which
isn't in my users' path.

pts/3 juha@vim2:~$ which chkconfig
/usr/bin/which: no chkconfig in
(/usr/lib/courier-imap/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/home/juha/bin)

pts/3 juha@vim2:~$ ls /sbin/chkconfig
/sbin/chkconfig


Please trim unnecessary quotes and don't top-post.

Sam can confirm if this is correct or not, but I believe the tarball
method is the best one, as building it picks up on various authentication
and database libraries that your system has (or hasn't) installed.

The only justification I can see for Sam providing an RPM package is for
systems without compilers/development tools/libraries.

There's a fix for that too! Go to http://jump.to/oblivion (no, not being

  Next problem; the spec file appears to require RPM version 4.0.2 or greater,

Can't help you with that though. No idea why SuSE ships such an old
version of RPM.

  Rather than mess up the distro completely, I think I'll revert to manual

Hmmm just to clarify what I wrote above, I meant of course that
building RPMs from the tarball is the best method, instead of providing

Re: [courier-users] Timeout for Webmail

2002-07-12 Thread Juha Saarinen

On Fri, 12 Jul 2002, Jesse Keating wrote:

  Is there a way I can set a session timeout on webmail?  The default timeout is
  too quickly, and my users are complaining about lost letters because of it.

From the INSTALL file:

Adjusting session timeouts

   A  login  session  is automatically logged out after certain period of
   inactivity.  The  timeout period defaults to 20 minutes, and is set by
   the  --enable-softtimeout  option  to the configure script. It is also
   possible  to  adjust  this  value by setting the SQWEBMAIL_TIMEOUTSOFT
   environment   variable.  For  example,  with  Apache,  by  adding  the
   following to httpd.conf:
SetEnv SQWEBMAIL_TIMEOUTSOFT 3600

   There is also a hard timeout, which logs out a session no matter what.
   The  default  of  two  hours  is changed with the --enable-hardtimeout
   option   to   the  configure  script,  and  the  SQWEBMAIL_TIMEOUTHARD
   environment variable.

   WARNING:

   The  hard timeout interval is used to calculate the maintenance of the
   login  cache  (if that option is selected). This factor is used in the
   cleancache.pl  cleanup  script,  and  changes  to  this  value must be
   coordinated  appropriately.  It  is not possible to use different hard
   timeout  values  with  the  same  login  cache  (in  different virtual
   domains,  as  described in the next session). Leisurely tinkering with
   this  environment  variable is STRONGLY DISCOURAGED, it's very easy to
   screw up the whole system. You've been warned.

   If  you  adjust  the hard timeout, you must simultaneously delete your
   current   login  cache  directory,  and  adjust  $timeouthard  in  the
   installed cleancache.pl script.



Is this what you were looking for?

  This problem does not happen if he uses Mozilla.  Also, closing OE

  Any clue what might cause a problem like this?  This is a weird

Microsoft hasn't quite grasped how IMAP works. What you're seeing is the
effect of OE doing local caching of the messages (it's probably only
message headers, haven't looked into this), and not synching with the IMAP
store often enough.

Patience, and use the purge button often. You can try setting the
synchronization to All messages, and shorten the Check for new
messages time period.

It's very annoying, I agree.

Plain text. That's why you'd use it with TLS/SSL, so as to encrypt the

perhaps easier than troubleshooting eccentric Microsoft mail clients. ;-)

OK, that means using SSL then, and LOGIN. If you go through the archives,
you'll find a number of posts explaining how to import home-made

Not sure how you'd set up OE like this for a large number of clients, but

  Juha, thanks for the info it was a great starting place.  Courier apparently

Yes, sorry, haven't used the mail daemon bit of Courier for a while now
A quick look at the makealiases man page reveals that the program builds a
database of aliases called /etc/courier/aliases.dat out of the default
/etc/courier/aliases file or directory (which is where the system file
resides). You don't need to use the default directory/file or even the
aliases.dat database, but never mind about that for now.

If you do:

 makealiases -chk

it tries to verify the locate addresses in aliases.dat.

To see what's in aliases.dat, do:

 makealiases -dump


These two commands might help with the troubleshooting.

If I remember it right, your UNIX mail account is queen and you want to
alias kevin.queen to that. The correct format would be:

kevin.queen: queen

and not the other way round.

OE works fine (local caching of message store exempted) with Courier IMAP.
To see what's going on, have OE create a log file with the IMAP commands
(Tools - Options - Maintenance - Troubleshooting).

Does OE work with normal IMAP/SMTP?

Also, OE 6 does both IMAPS and SMTPS. Have you enabled the latter under
Tools - Accounts - Properties for the account - Advanced?

On Wed, 29 May 2002, Charlie Watts wrote:

  It's weird. This took me a while to find, too.

  Pine's normal Folder-Collections *don't* look at INBOX. I dunno why. You
  have to turn on enable-incoming-folders in Pine. Then, if you look at
  the Folder List in Pine, you'll see a Folder-Collection
  Incoming-Folders.

  Your default INBOX should already be in there, and you can (A)dd
  additional inboxes.

  It will ask for mail server name (I use something similar to this as well:
  [EMAIL PROTECTED]/novalidate-cert), folder name, and a
  nickname. A folder name of 'INBOX' (without quotes) works fine.)

  If the account is on the same server as other accounts that you are
  checking with that Pine instance, you have to be sure to use the /user=foo
  syntax or Pine will assume the same username. :-/

  So if you want to read both the INBOX from an account and the other
  folders in that account, you set it up as a folder collection *and* (A)dd
  it into the Incoming-Folders collection.

It works! IT WORKS! Wheee!

I had enable-incoming-folders set, but tried to use Folder-collections
instead.

Thanks a lot! It's been bothering me for ages this.

[courier-users] Pine 4 and Folder collections

2002-05-24 Thread Juha Saarinen

OK, I give up. How do you set up the Folder-Collections with Pine so that
you can actually read the mail?

I've got some virtual accounts set up, with this directory structure:

/home/virtual1/username

username is the Maildir.

The folder-collections item is set to:

Virtual1 {[EMAIL PROTECTED]/novalidate-cert}INBOX[]

OE 6 works fine, ditto Mutt, but Pine only sees the OE 6-created folders:

.Drafts[.].Sent Items[.].Trash[.]

but not the actual Inbox.

What am I missing here?

That's odd, I don't have an 'authmodules' file anywhere, on the two

There is, however, an 'authmodulelist' file in /usr/local/share/sqwebmail,
with this content:

authdaemon

Nor do I have an /etc/authdaemon file. Am I supposed to create these? It
doesn't seem to be mentioned in the documentation. The 'authdaemon' files
I have are all executable binary files.

  More modules - more troubles.
  List only the modules you really need, in this order:

  authcram authuserdb authmysql

All right, where would I list them?

  Maybe your authdaemon looks somewhere else for the files,
  grep the locations out of the binary.

Nothing much interesting


  And if you still get nowhere reconsider using strace :)

Strace it is then.

It is. In authlib/authdaemond.c you will find a line which says

In this example I've already added the comment signs (/* ... */, which

[courier-users] How to troubleshoot Sqwebmail auth of virtual users?

2002-05-14 Thread Juha Saarinen

Here's something that I don't think strace can help me with: I can log in
with SqWebmail as a normal user, with a system password; however, none of
the virtual accounts can do that.

I've got the virtual accounts set up with the userdb method described on
www.inter7.com/courier-imap and www.courier-mta.org/FAQ#virtual, and it's
possible to use them with standalone IMAP MUAs.

I assume this has something to do with SqWebmail not using authuserdb...?
If so, how could I persuade SqWebmail to do so?

Right, if you're using Red Hat Linux, start Courier with:

service courier start

-- at least I think that's the right invocation; I don't use the full
Courier suite. Look in your /etc/init.d/ directory.

  [root@pac10fans root]# ps

Do:

ps - auxww

Netstat will tell you if anything's listening on the appropriate ports

If the paths etc. in the SPEC file do not agree with what you want, it's
easy enough to untar the source, edit the SPEC file, and build and RPM
that way.

I've never had any issues building RPMs from Sam's tarballs, or installing

Don't give up. You're learning a lot in the process. :-)

  I installed the ones I wanted and went to do the 'showmodules' test and I

I'm only running Courier-IMAP and SqWebmail, which is the probable reason
I don't have 'showmodules'. I think it should be in /usr/lib/courier/sbin
though. If that directory isn't in your path, 'showmodules' won't be
executed.

Do either:

locate showmodules

or:

find / -name showmodules

to discover where it is.

  [root@pac10fans courier]# cd /usr/lib/courier/sbin
  [root@pac10fans sbin]# showmodules
  bash: showmodules: command not found

Does:

./showmodules

run the command?

If not, do:

rpm -qa | grep courier

to see what you've actually installed of the courier packages.

If you installed it through RPM (by first building the RPM packages

be able to do:

service courier-imap start

  messages in the inbox. It can see all other folders, and messages in
  those folders, create folders and sub-folders. It just will not show
  anything in the damned inbox.  Other clients I have tried (pine 
  evolution on linux, outlook express on win (double yuck, but it was on
  the machine...) work fine in the inbox. This is very weird and I
  wondered if anyone had the same problem, or better still knows a fix!

Funny that: I have a similar problem with PC Pine 4.33 being able to read
all the sub-folders, but none of the Inbox messages, while OE can do it
just fine.

Is there a way to have Becky log what it's doing, like you can with OE?

Not if he has installed Courier previously.

Yow. Not bad for a newbie, I have to say. RPM = Red Hat Package Manager
(should be RHPM, but never mind). It's similar to InstallShield but more
capable -- you can verify files, and use it to compile your own packages.

You can build RPMs for Courier yourself, which simplifies upgrading to
newer versions. Just do 'rpm -ta courier{version}.tar.gz' following the
instructions on http://courier-mta.org.
