[courier-users] Fwd: Re: Looking for new Debian maintainers for courier-mta packages

[Mark Constable]

Hi Markus, I hope you don't mind me forwarding your email to the courier-users
mailing-list. There are some users their that wold be very interested in 
uptodate
packages for stretch that would hopefully also filter down to the ubuntu repos.

Hi,

it's certainly a bit late, but I'd like to adopt the courier mta
packages, as stated in the wnpp bugs. (Stumbled over this old mail only
today.)

Well, that's hard to promise, but I'll try to get courier ready for
stretch, in the first place. If that effort isn't successful, it should
better be dropped from stretch.

While I'm a long-time courier user and DD, I clearly don't qualify as a
team. I'd certainly appreciate help and would instantly hand over
maintenance to one.

Kind Regards

If you are interested in bugs, you should also try to go look up all the 
bugs Ondrej closed too. he closed them in large batches without review. 
Many were still valid issues at the time of closing. This was one of the 
many complaints people had with the way he mismanaged the packages.

I applaud your work and hope someone will pick up courier, but I've 
already started working on migrating all of the systems I am responsible 
to other packages/systems. At this point, the removal of Courier from 
Debian and derivatives is almost certain and administrators should be 
acting accordingly (move to other packages or compile their own).

Re: [courier-users] Fwd: Looking for new Debian maintainers for courier-mta packages

[Ángel]

As someone interested in keeping courier in Debian, I had been
interested in looking at Ondřej changes (and its consequences) since I
first saw this thread.

I have now compiled the new packages and performed a (really basic)
local install.

I'm not too keen on the move of couriertls into courier-base, though. In
my view, it is itself an independent package, and it shouldn't require
eg. the authdaemon (while it did have a depends to courier-base, I seem
recall it wasn't really needed).

A bug I noticed on install is that although courier-base is
using /usr/sbin/mkdhparams to create properly-sized 4096 DH parameters
in /etc/courier/dhparams.pem, the smtpd certificate was created
with /usr/lib/courier/mkesmtpdcert which, after generating the
certificate, appends a 512-byte (weak) dh parameter. This openssl gendh
line was removed upstream in 2014 on
1e1b535b440b93474d243fe363635f0ec18427cd, but gets readded by patch 12.
(d0e8408cc changes it from gendh to dhparam, but still adds it to the
autogenerated certificate. It should be removed)

I would recommend automatically adding mkdhparams to /etc/cron.monthly,
too.


As for the debian bug reports, the work seems to lie in the list of
normal unclassified bugs that would need to be reviewed and most likely
tested.

Also, looking at the patches carried by debian, the numbers 1, 2, 3, 5,
6, 7, 9, 12*, 13, 14, 17, 20, 21, 23 and 25 seem quite uncontroversial
for being applied upstream. Could you add them to your queue to ponder
their inclusion, Sam?


Best regards

They are a significant departure from the original 0.68.2-1ubuntu7
packages in xenial:universe/mail. Not only are Ondřej's packages using
almost current source (0.76.2-1+deb.sury.org~xenial+1) but they have
changed the default user ID from "deamon" to "courier" which essentially
means that a simple upgrade is not really possible.

I spent a lot of time testing Ondřej's packages as he built them and I
could never do a simple upgrade. I always had to completely uninstall
the old packages and start a fresh courier install.

He also amalgamated a few packages so that these ones became redundant...

courier-imap-ssl - Courier mail server - IMAP over SSL [transitional]
courier-maildrop - Courier mail server - mail delivery agent [transitional 
package]
courier-pop-ssl - Courier mail server - POP3 over SSL [transitional]
courier-ssl - Courier mail server - SSL/TLS Support [transitional]

and their functionality incorporated into the "parent" packages. One
fairly significant change is that the maildrop package binary works a
little differently from the "old" courier-maildrop binary, ie; in
/etc/courier/courierd if one wanted global maildrop delivery then
this workaround was needed...

#DEFAULTDELIVERY="|/usr/bin/maildrop -w 90 -V 1"
DEFAULTDELIVERY='|/usr/bin/maildrop -w 90 -d "${RECIPIENT}"'

Other than clearing out all remnants of the old "daemon" owned files
and directories so the newer "courier" owned components would not be
compromised it all seems to work. Ondřej did an amazing job...

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ondrej/courier/ubuntu xenial main

FWIW this is a fairly good history of what Ondřej did to the packages...

https://github.com/oerdnj/deb.sury.org/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93=is%3Aissue%20is%3Aclosed%20courier

The original packages list...

Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers 
Original-Maintainer: Stefan Hornburg (Racke) 

... so I presume ubuntu-devel-disc...@lists.ubuntu.com has some bearing
on whether the newer packages could ever replace the old ones, which
could only ever formally happen in post-xenial releases.

Well there we go. Maybe it is possible to ask Sam to include the /debian
directories from Ondřejs' PPA packages into his Github and personal git
repos so the issue of the canonical (not Canonical) upstream source is
no longer ambiguous?

That should satisfy the Debian/Ubuntu upstream requirements so whoever
was the formal package maintainer would only have to build and submit
the packages direct from Github and a "bunch of us deb using guys" only
have to focus on the QA of that /debian directory which we could mainly
coordinate via the Github issue tracker, and of course this list.

 Two things:
 The package has no git source https://packages.qa.debian.org/c/courier.html
 Courier upstream has no bug-tracking system.

 I would choose GitHub as a place to store /debian and to communicate
 with upstream.

I'm not clear whether Ondřej's changes break compatibility with the current 
package.  If aiming at an incompatible repackaging, dropping the existing 
packages and creating new ones can be easier.  Call it /renaming/ if you like.

Pros.  Renaming makes it clear that some work is needed to migrate to the new 
packages.  Custom scripts will have to be reviewed, for example.  Bugs don't 
need to be migrated, perhaps.

Cons.  Sense of discontinuity.  Panic?

I propose interested Ubuntu users subscribe here.  I reckon subscribers of this 
list, even if not interested in Debian packaging, are more likely to 
occasionally lend some interest on the subject than subscribers of Ububtu- or 
Debian- devel who are not interested in Courier or mail.  Am I wrong?

Yeah I had too little time to continue with maintaining such a large package
on my own. I certainly appreciate Ondřej's support and I could help out
with the Debian specifics of this package.

BTW: Even if you don't want to work on packaging - you could still help
testing changes, Mark :-).

We could also use the existing Git infrastructure of Debian for the packaging
files (https://wiki.debian.org/PackagingWithGit).

This was one of the saddest emails I have ever received.

If my servers ran Archlinux I'd have no problem building from source,
and even maintaining a source package in AUR, but even though I am a
staunch ubuntu-server user I really don't like debs (or rpm) packaging.

I have little choice left but to start testing postfix/dovecot :-(

And so far I really despise what I see after becoming so comfortable
with courier. No SNI (SSL on a single IP) for a start and goodness
knows what else will be awkward to impossible to achieve compared to
the relative ease and unified sanity of the courier suite.

And not least of all the superb effort put in by Sam, and others, on
this list to provide a level of consistent free support rarely seen
elsewhere (in my experience.)

That's very encouraging. I am less experienced with Debian packaging than
you so I'm not sure I can do much to help. It looks like ra...@linuxia.de
has retired from the original Debian packages and Ondřej put in an amazing
effort to re-package the latest source to run under the "courier" user
instead of the previous "daemon" user (more in line with original source).

Some discussion on ubuntu-devel-disc...@lists.ubuntu.com might dig up some
more support and help determine if Ondřejs' packages could replace the
current way-to-old barely-on-life-support package set.

Unfortunately Sam doesn't seem interested in moving his whole development

Re: [courier-users] Fwd: Looking for new Debian maintainers for courier-mta packages

[SZÉPE Viktor]

Hello Courier users!

I could lend a hand to the maintainer for couple of hours/month.
I am Courier user and I am able to put together simple, lintian-free packages
https://github.com/szepeviktor/debian-server-tools/tree/master/security/myattackers-ipsets/ipset-persistent/debian

Though I've never used Debian's source/build infrastructure.

Two things:
The package has no git source https://packages.qa.debian.org/c/courier.html
Courier upstream has no bug-tracking system.

I would choose GitHub as a place to store /debian and to communicate  
with upstream.

[courier-users] Fwd: Looking for new Debian maintainers for courier-mta packages

[Mark Constable]

Apologies if this is a repost but I couldn't find it in the courier-users@ 
archives.


 Forwarded Message 
Subject: Looking for new Debian maintainers for courier-mta packages
Date: Tue, 06 Dec 2016 15:04:59 +0100
From: Ondřej Surý 
To: debian-de...@lists.debian.org, Willi Mann , 
courier-i...@lists.sourceforge.net
CC: Mark Constable 

Hi,

TL;DR I am looking for prospective courier-mta maintainers for Courier
MTA packages.

a little history - Mark Constable asked me a while ago if I could
prepare updated Courier MTA packages for Ubuntu PPA. As a part of that I
whipped the courier-authlib, courier-unicode and courier packages up to
modern Debian packages standard and did some more improvements to the
packaging (as privilege separation on separate 'courier' user). I also
merged non-TLS and TLS versions and did some more changes (most of it
could be found in debian/changelog and/or in git log).

I did my best to break as little things as possible, but the changes to
the packages were massive. There's one problem though - I am not active
Courier MTA user, so I can do my best from Debian point of view, but I
am unable to do any extensive testing.

Therefore I am looking for active Courier MTA users that happen to be
either Debian Developers, Debian Maintainers, or just people that would
be happy to learn the Debian Packaging - I would be more than happy to
provide guidance in such case.

I have filled RFH (Request for Help) bug on courier package, but nobody
responded so far. Today I have changed that to RFA (Request for
Adoption) and I intend to properly orphan the packages before stretch
release and remove them from next Debian stable release. Well, unless
somebody comes up and makes a hard promise to take care of all Courier
MTA till Debian stretch (next stable) end-of-life and becomes
maintainers.

Please note that the bug list on src:courier is rather long:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?repeatmerged=no=courier
(143 filled bugs) and it will need some time to comb through the list,
close the non-issues, fix the Debian related bugs and forward the
appropriate bugs to upstream. I would suggest it might be better this
would be a team effort.

Cheers,

[courier-users] (fwd)

[Sam Varshavchik]

This is a development build of _courier_, _courier-imap_, _sqwebmail_,  
_maildrop_, and _cone_ packages.


Download: http://www.courier-mta.org/download.php

The custom implementation of unicode-based character set mapping tables has  
been replaced by an iconv(3)-based implementation. This release also  
includes a major upgrade to sqwebmail that includes better support for  
flowed-format text, and a new search function.


== Backwards compatibility and upgrade notes

* The format of the autoreplies has changed. Autoreply content must now use  
flowed-text markup. This affects mailbot and the equivalent autoreply  
feature in sqwebmail. Existing mailbot autoreply files need to be edit and  
reformatted as flowed text. Ditto for autoreplies set up in sqwebmail. They  
need to be opened, and edited so that the only linebreaks occur between  
paragraphs. Additionally, the autoreply text in sqwebmail is now saved in  
UTF-8; existing autoreplies may need to be transcoded manually.


* When using sqwebmail to generate HTML text, the markup for generating  
text headings has slightly changed.


* Saved message signatures are now also saved in the UTF-8 character set,  
to get more consistent behavior when switching browser codings. Existing  
message signatures may have to be recoded.


* Site-specific message footer files, in the html/LANG directory, must now  
be coded in UTF-8, and use the format=flowed, delsp=yes text format, as per  
RFC 3676.


* Slight semantical difference in processing of signatures and footers. A  
signature, if specified, will no longer appear in the editable text area,  
but get automatically added to the message, upon submission. The signature  
will also be shown when previewing the message.


* A site-specific message footer file, if installed, will also be shown  
when previewing the message.


== Other, general changes:

* sqwebmail and Cone can now process mail coded in any character set that's  
supported by the system iconv(3) library, not just a few dozen character  
sets that used to be built into the codebase. This is true, of course, only  
if the browser or the terminal display supports UTF-8. Similarly Courier- 
IMAP now accepts search queries encoded in any character set known to  
iconv(3).


* This is due to the replacement of the internal character set and unicode  
library, that predates the standardization of iconv(3). The new iconv(3)- 
based API is completely different than the previous library API. The only  
remaining bits of code are mapping function that case-convert character  
data, as well as compute character width (there's no analogous  
functionality in iconv(3)). This is augmented by new implementation of  
unicode grapheme breaking and line breaking algorithms.


* Translating and mapping between different character sets is core  
functionality; from converting email content, in sqwebmail and Cone, to  
client's character set, to parsing i18n data from various mail headers  
(which have several different character set and language encoding formats  
as well), to searching and sorting messages, by sqwebmail, Cone, or the  
IMAP server. Most the impact from the rewrite should hopefully go  
unnoticed, aside from the larger character set universe known to sqwebmail,  
Cone, and Courier-IMAP.


* There's a new search box at the bottom of the folder index page.  
sqwebmail searches the messages in the order of their appearance on the  
folder index screen. The search starts with the first message on the folder  
index screen. If the folder index screen does not start with the first  
message in the folder, the previous messages are not searched, and the  
search stops when enough messages with the search string are found to fill  
one folder index screen. In this manner, a poorly chosen search string that  
finds a hit in a lot of messages will limit itself. If necessary, the  
search can be repeated after navigating the folder index screen to the  
starting point for the second search.


* Up to four occurrences of the search string in each message are shown on  
the search results page.


* Word wrapping rules in sqwebmail now use unicode line break rules, rather  
than simple word wrapping on whitespace. This should improve sqwebmail's  
word wrap with non-Western languages.


* Suppress logging the contents of a failed AUTH command in syslog, in case  
it includes encoded passwords.


* Fix requirements of rpm spec files, to depend on /etc/cron.hourly, rather  
than a specific cron package.


* Adjust indentation to avoid parts of DSNs unintentionally interpreted as  
quoted content.


* mailbot now generates flowed text-formatted replies.

 Sam,

 Attached is the logfile. I hope it is useful.

 Sorry, I made a small mistake. I forgot that $sbindir/authdaemond is a
 shell wrapper script, not the real binary that ends up running in the
 background.

 Please rollback the change, and edit the authdaemond script itself.

 Replace

 exec ${sbindir}/courierlogger -pid=/var/spool/authdaemon/pid
 $LOGGEROPTS -$1 /usr/libexec/courier-authlib/authdaemond

 with

 ${sbindir}/courierlogger -pid=/var/spool/authdaemon/pid $LOGGEROPTS -$1
 valgrind --tool=memcheck --leak-check=yes --log-file=/tmp/authdaemond.log.$$
 /usr/libexec/courier-authlib/authdaemond 

 This is one line. Hopefully this'll do the trick. After starting
 authdaemond and replicating the problem, make a copy of the log file
 before stopping authdaemond. You'll need to stop it by killing the
 process, rather then executing the stop command -- because of the way
 valgrind gets shoved into the pipeline, the regular stop command won't
 work.

 By having the pid appended to the generated log filename
 /tmp/authdaemond.log.$$ this will prevent anything useful from being
 overwritten if the wrapper script gets executed again, by mistake.

 You can either mail the logs to me, or post it somewhere I can grab if
 my spam filters bounce it, rather than posting the whole thing to the
 list.



 Hi,

 Thanks for the help. I had to improvise a bit to get the log, i've
 seen that multiple processes has logged in the log unfortunately, but
 I hope that's not that crucial for the analysis.

 See attachment.

[Tim Lyth]

Forgot to include the list...

Incoming mail would be handled over SMTP, most probably, so Postfix 
would be the daemon to handle the .forward file.

That's correct we were not running courier previously,

  

According to the above, you are running Postfix, not Courier.



I wasn't clear in the previous post, the envrionment runs postfix for SMTP and 
courier for IMAP whereas previously we were running sendmail and cyrus for 
the same purpose. 

  

The best way to get help for your problem, is to be able to clearly explain
what your problem is. Even after reading your message several times, it's
still not clear whether you're running Courier, or Postfix, or whatever,
and what exactly is not working. Without understanding what exactly your
situation is, nobody will be able to offer much help to you.



It appears that I may be in the wrong forum for this specific problem. But I 
would appreciate if you guys could help guide me in the right direction. 
Given our setup (Courier for imap and Postfix for smtp), when new email comes 
in which application is responsible for parsing the .forward file and 
executing its insturctions?


Cheers,

[courier-users] [Fwd: Re: How to identify mails sent to an alias]

[Tim Lyth]

It seems that this didn't end up going to the list

 Original Message 

Without modifying the courier-mta package that comes in Debian stable, I 
have a VERY effective solution to alias use and determining which email 
was sent to whom.

In my setup I have a MySQL database as my backend for authdaemon, 
courier-{mta,imap} set to use maildir format.

My database fields are username, domain, crypt, clear, name, uid, gid 
and home.
username and domain are combined to give a valid email address for 
receiving email to (was needed to be two fields to allow 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] to be separate from [EMAIL PROTECTED]).  
crypt and clear define the password as either MD5 hash or cleartext. 
home defines the mailbox to drop the email in to.  All email accounts 
are purely virtual from the OS view-points and therefore uid and gid are 
constant for all fields - they are the uid and gid that courier runs as.
In my authdaemon configuration I do NOT allow NULL passwords for logging in.

Therefore:
1) to create a new address is just a matter of entering a row of data in 
to the DB - alias addresses do not have a password defined, real 
addresses do.  The home field in alias addresses is set to match the 
real address' home field.  crypt, clear and name are optional fields 
and usually I don't set them to anything.
2) any username with a password defined in crypt or clear can log in and 
check email, all others are denied access.
3) as the MTA only cares about username and domain pairings, they are 
all seen as real addresses by it and therefore are what actually 
appears in the logs.
4) I only need to check 1 account for email, namely the real address.
5) Setting up mail filtering/sorting within my email client is easy - 
base it on the To: header, which doesn't change anywhere along the way.


HTH.
Cheers,
Tim Lyth

[courier-users] Fwd: Can't login to IMAP: pass MySQL authentication, permission denied

[Adinda Praditya]

Hi all,

I installed courier-imap-4.3.1 i with rpm built as vmail. Then i filed
to login (as virtual user stored in MySQL) to IMAP. Here's my maillog:

Apr 23 08:46:42 mercury73 imapd: Connection, ip=[:::203.125.189.34]
Apr 23 08:46:42 mercury73 authdaemond: received auth request,
service=imap, authtype=login
Apr 23 08:46:42 mercury73 authdaemond: authmysql: trying this module
Apr 23 08:46:42 mercury73 authdaemond: SQL query: SELECT email,
passwd, clear, uid, gid, homedir, maildir, quota, name,  FROM users
WHERE email = [EMAIL PROTECTED] AND (postfix = 'y')
Apr 23 08:46:42 mercury73 authdaemond: password matches successfully
Apr 23 08:46:42 mercury73 authdaemond: authmysql: sysusername=null,
sysuserid=5000, sysgroupid=5000, homedir=/opt/mail,
[EMAIL PROTECTED], fullname=Test Info,
maildir=/opt/mail/nama.domain.com/info, quota=25000S,
options=null
Apr 23 08:46:42 mercury73 authdaemond: Authenticated:
sysusername=null, sysuserid=5000, sysgroupid=5000,
homedir=/opt/mail, [EMAIL PROTECTED], fullname=Test Info,
maildir=/opt/mail/nama.domain.com/info, quota=25000S,
options=null
Apr 23 08:46:42 mercury73 imapd: chdir /opt/mail/nama.domain.com/info:
Permission denied

As the log said, i passed mysql authentication and the problem is the
file permission. Inside /opt/mail/ has permission *00 (700 for folders
and 600 for the files) and they're all belongs to vmail.vmail. I think
this is a standard file permission as it stated on almost courier-imap
manual / tutorial.

The question is,
1. What should i check? What's wrong?

2. Even if i give the read and write permission to the user's maildir
(and its domain), i still couldn't login to IMAP. The email client
said login failed. Strangely, there's no more Permission denied
error in the maillog, it's just stop until the authdaemond:
Authenticated:. I couldn't find any clue / report from other logs
(messages, debug log). Can anyone explain the situation and the real
problem here?

3. I chat with someone in freenode. He said,

I suspect there is a problem with the user that the imap daemon is
trying to read it as. the virtual user, perhaps the imap daemon is not
using the correct username to do it.

Is it true? What should i check? What's the solution?

FYI, I'm using CentOS 5 and my SELinux was Permissive. Changing it
to Disabled also don't help. I search the web for similar situation,
still don't find the solution. Please help me. I'm lost here.

Regards,

Adinda P

Apostrophes in SQL are a no-no and can be used for SQL injection attacks.

Example: someone sends an email to your server at

user';delete * from users;

Voiala, there goes your users table! I'm not surprised to see that
authmysql is stripping these characters.

Escaping is an option. However, not all RDBMSs escape such especial
characters the same way, so that can be problematic.

Matt

quote who=Martin Strand
 I've got usernames with apostrophes (don't ask me why, people are strange)
 but they don't seem to work well with authmysql - the apostrophes are
 replaced with spaces in the mysql query:

 imapd: Connection, ip=[:::127.0.0.1]
 authd: received auth request, service=imap, authtype=login
 authd: authmysql: trying this module
 authd: SQL query: SELECT email, , clear, uid, gid, home, maildir, quota,
 ,  FROM users WHERE email = info [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 authd: zero rows returned
 authd: no password available to compare
 authd: authmysql: REJECT - try next module
 authd: FAIL, all modules rejected
 imapd: LOGIN FAILED, user=info'[EMAIL PROTECTED], ip=[:::127.0.0.1]
 imapd: Disconnected, ip=[:::127.0.0.1], time=5

 Is there anything I can do to prevent this? Are there other characters
 that don't work with authmysql?
 I should mention that I'm using the rather old courier-authlib-0.58 and
 courier-imap-4.1.0.


 One possible workaround would be:

 MYSQL_LOGIN_FIELD  replace(email, ',  )

 but that feels rather hacky so I'd rather not do it.

 Thanks,
 Martin

Re: [courier-users] [Fwd: Re: authmysql vs apostrophe]

[Martin Strand]

It should be up to authmysql to escape its input in order to prevent SQL  
injection. I doubt escaping differs much between different rdbms, but  
authmysql only supports mysql so that's not an issue.
Postfix is using the same table and does not have a problem with  
apostrophes.
I'll just add that hacky workaround for now.

 Aha! May be this is the missing chain? I'm using Debian (latest stable),
 which provide me prebuilded packages, what are easy to install and

 some informations skipped. I have no /etc/courier/smtpacces directory at
 all, I have an /etc/courier/smtpacces.dat - I have been checked it, but I
 do not now how to convert it back to human readable format. Do you know
 how to do it? - I'm afraid that whitout the source of smtpacces.dat file I
 can not recreate it expanded with FAXRELAYCLIENT which I need.

Perhaps try a...

OK! You win! Same on me, I have directory /etc/courier/smtpaccess with a
file called default supplied by author. It contain a raw

127.0.0.1 allow,RELAYCLIENT

I create a new file in this directory called default-fax and include
only one raw for faxing:

127.0.0.1 allow.FAXRELAYCLIENT

run makesmtpaccess but it gives me error

Cannot store record for 127.0.0.1 - duplicate or out of disk space.

How should look like FAXRELAYCLIENT?

[tovis]

Finally I succeed to send using email gateway :D
Thank you Mark! - you turn me to the right way.
There are some miscellanouse configurations to do, but finally it do what
I'm awaiting for.
I should say, that if I was read the hole documentation I should be gues
this, but from other point I simply does not falmiliar with email service
and logic of moving emails through it especially the way as courier do it.
Again thanks a lot!

Yes! Sorry I was so happy that I forgot the right entry:

127.0.0.1TABallow,RELAYCLIENT,FAXRELAYCLIENT

That solved my problem. The README.Debian is talking about that fax
facility should be enabled by root, and go to talk about faxrc which is
quite unusual configuration script, and do not talk about relaying - I
think for package manager it was obviouse. But as I wrote before the
courier is not counted in the list of recommended mta's and configuration
and setup is not so fined as for them :(

 where TAB means a real tab character. Test it and look at the
 logs to see how much further you may, or not, get.

From those time, with some help I managed to configure smarthost, simply
creating /etc/courier/esmtproutes contain only one raw
:mail.chello.hu
After this I've set I can send emails. Installed fetchmail, to collect
mails from different providers. Here was only one problem, which were
solved using smtphost - which was identical to
/etc/courier/defaultdomain is contain.
I can send/receive receive faxes - front end is apache2 and squirrelmail.
For now I have stucked on faxmail. I was deleted the first line from
default configuration file /etc/courier/faxrc (rw^  .  1), and check for
faxmail, as [EMAIL PROTECTED], but result was an SMTP 513 error. to field is
the same as I used for sending email, from field is [EMAIL PROTECTED] - lookup
from syslog.
What I've should set for faxmail? Is it not a real domain, it's some kind
of route which is on localhost. I'm strugling on documentation but I found
nothing about fax domain. Usually Debian packages are coming well
preinstalled, may be the problem is /etc/courier/esmtproutes what I've set
to everiything to my smarthost? Any ideas would be apretiated.

The problem is, so far, two different IP addresses are blocked, but
don't know how many actually are. Have to wait for a mail to bounce to
update the whitelist with a new IP is not an option.

Following advice from Jay Lee and after checking that the dsbl.net rbl
wasn't blocking anything (apart from google addresses) I opted for
disabling it from my config.

Thanks all for your comments.

Then create one with your favorite text editor. This file is usually not 
installed with package or from source. If all other courier configuration 
files are in /etc/courier, this is the way to go.

After setting of smarthost, I have used one of my e-mail address, send a
test. Thus is the result:

   UNDELIVERABLE MAIL

Your message to the following recipients cannot be delivered:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:
fmx.freemail.hu [195.228.245.2]:

 554 Your access to this mail system has been rejected due to the

For me it's sounds that it is not sended through smarthost :(, is not it?

I'm sure that Courier's faxmail won't work with exim4 MTA. My problem that
I'm not so mauch familiar with mail servers, and documentation on
http://www.courier-mta.org/install.html is about manuall installation of
the Coutier server - a complex full featured mailserver, what I'm do not
need. This documentation quite frighten me, and I'm try to get some
information that do it will good for me to go through this long
installation procedure, to have a simple, smarthost based mta. I know that
Debian prebuilded Courier's IMAP server is very simple to setup/configure,
as the exim4 for this purposes also do not need high efforts.
By the way I have some answers, which help me to decide that is it should
be good for me, need some more efforts for setup than usually. For now I'm
modelling the server and realized that Courier mta, imap and faxmail has
a lot of configuration files (for first look it's more then apache2),
which I need to understand.

courier-mta + courier-imap + courier-faxmail has much more setup/config to
do as apache2 (for exmple), a lots of configuration files, no clean step
by step instruction how I need to be setup/config a smarthost based mta,
which is (I hope) knows courier IMAP.

PS: Generally, in many situations I should trust to this descriptions,
because no reliable description of how to check setup/configuration.
Tipical example mail delivery subsystems. I'm sure that these checks are
much more complex than setup/config itself, and guys from Debian do it,
know it, much better and deeper then me.

Re: [courier-users] [Fwd: courier is good for me?]

[Aidas Kasparas]

In your situation I would write small script called from .forward (or
whatever your MTA uses) which would get attachments and process them
with hylafax (or whatever you intend to use as fax server).

I went this way even I use courier-mta for mail handling -- courier's
faxmail was not powerfull enough for my purposes.

Re: [courier-users] [Fwd: courier is good for me?]

[tovis]

 In your situation I would write small script called from .forward (or
 whatever your MTA uses) which would get attachments and process them
 with hylafax (or whatever you intend to use as fax server).

 I went this way even I use courier-mta for mail handling -- courier's
 faxmail was not powerfull enough for my purposes.

Can I ask why? What are you missed?

I'm using Debian Etch - mgetty, mgetty-fax. I found some suspiciouse
informations that courier is use netpbm pack - g3topbm and pbmtog3 from
that packagedoes not work for mgetty - I checked out. I think it could be
worked around.

I needed to send faxes with modems located in different cities. And had
only very old computers to handle these modems. And for some reason (do
not remember why) I preffered hylafax over mgetty-fax. So, it was more
simple to use one central mail/fax server with number of modem-handlers
in remote places than to setup network of mail servers what each take
care to handle incoming mail, format conversion and modem.

 Really special situation - if I only understand it well - you have
 several
 modems, in several cities, each of them connect to very old boxes, and
 you
 built up a server on another place, sending emails to those old boxes
 which are sends the real faxes - amazing! but possible.

 All true except I do not send mails to these boxes. Instead hylafax has
 protocol for submitting faxes to remote boxes. I use it.

Your choice is better! - mail delivery protocol is quite an information
blackhole. I have choose mgetty, because it is a much more old realization
then Hylafax, and seem to me is quite simple. Small amount of
configuration files, and practically two apps mgetty and sendfax.
Additionally, courier does not use mgetty's spool mechanizm but his own
mail pool is used - faxrunqd start/stop daemon script includes some kind
of timeout about 60 sec(!) - is it quite painfull for UPS.


 Fortunatelly my situation is quite simple against this :)
 I need a FAX server to send faxes from an office, where working about 20
 person with different boxes and OS's on them (Windows, Linux). Also need
 to get faxes (in 99% of situation) from a so small country such as
 Hungary.

 This is implemented in Lithuania. And according to wikipedia, Hungary is
 bigger :)

 Population: hu 10M, lt 3.4M
 Area (sq.km): hu 93k, lt 65k


Yes, that's it! Some years ago one of my clients bought a a multifunction
laser printer/copy/fax from a well known american manufacturer, but from
many far places in Hungary they can not receive FAX's, because of the
quality of connection - huge/large/small depend on many factors.

Good choice. Hylafax comes with 'faxmail' which takes a (mime formatted)
email as input. Just have your mta deliver to that program. Hylafax
doesn't come with a pdf filter for attachements, but the infrastructure
is in place to supply your own. The documentation (man faxmail) should
have everything to get you going.

I was going to do all that myself, but at the moment I'm too busy. Maybe
in a couple of months. For me it's just an academic excersise since I
won't use it very often. But it might come handy at some point.

I'm running a small SOHO (about 20 users for now), based on a server,
running Debian stable with usuall services - samba, apache2 and
PostgreSQL.
I'm using exim4 (as mta), courier-imap and squirrelmail, for reliable,
platform independent mailing system, with some help for group work. I do
not want to build a fully featured mail server, I'm using exim4 through
smarthost, fetchmail is getting incoming mailes. This configuration works
fine for several years, and it was simply to install/configure.
For now I need FAX service, and I found that courier has faxmail module,
but it need courier mta. I have been start struggling on courier
documentation and realized that is it a large and complex mail server
package, with a lots of configuration issues and possibilities. Try google
to find a more simple setup howto - I do not find any for my situation.
May be courier is not good for me?

Hi.

First: I never used the fax module, so I have no clue if this might be what 
you want.

I don't really have much experience with other MTAs, but most parts of the 
default configuration can be used as-is. Just because many things are 
possible, this does not mean that you need or want them.

The default config will do just fine for many people. Especially if you don't 
use incoming SMTP (and so don't have to worry about IDENT lookups, blacklist 
configuration, greylisting or thinks like that).

Have a look at http://www.courier-mta.org/install.html. More than half of the 
chapters are marked OPTIONAL and that is meant like that. :)
The sections about configure/make/install (Everything from Preparing for 
installation up to Post-installation checks) should be obsolete if you 
have packages from your distro.

Can you specify which part of the installation docs is complex if you leave 
out things you don't need?

regards, Bernd

Setup exim4 as a smarthost using mta on Debian called as zero setup.
There is small shell/perl questionary ned to answer about ten questions.
- using smarthost, incoming emails are coming through SMTP or fetchmail
- host name for mail susbsystem
- listening interfaces for incoming SMTP connection - no one
- other recipients to accept to - no one
- other senders from relay - no one
- name of the smarthost
- strip local names from mails - yes
- local users domain name - myserver
- minimalize DNS requests - no
- Also need to firgure out what directory to use for (maildir_home)
- Setup smarthost password
- some email addresses
- courier imap does not need any setup!?
Thats all :)
Recent about squirrelmail, apache2 and fetchmail.
I lookup the http://www.courier-mta.org/install.html - I have seen it but
it was quite terrify - work for days and continouse maintenance.

Contionus maintainance (say: security upgrades) should be the basic work for

Right.
The answer for me, it is good for me but of course not some much obviouse
to setup then exim4 on Debian. I should do some jb, but the result would
be apropriate :)
About the maintenance I do not mean only updates/upgrades - Debian do it
very well, mostly automatic security updates are does. I mean about
blacklists, filters and other stuff top be safe - that no one will use my
small server as a spam spreading/colleting box.

Thanx Bernd

I hove my next questions will so quckly answered as this :)

If you don't open up SMTP to the outside world, you don't need any blacklist.
Why do you compare a smarthost-style EXIM with a full-blown courier? Keep your 
config simple and you don't need to maintain anything you arn't using.

But hey, it's up to you. Use it or not. I'm out of this.

[courier-users] Fwd: FAM and Gamin problems

[Chuck Williams]

Hi All,
(Sorry if anybody gets this twice.  I forget this membership was associated with an older email address so my first attempt was sent for moderation.)

I have run a small courier implementation on a debian server for friends 
and family for the past few years.  This uses local account Maildir 
delivery.  Recently we have been experience performance problems and 
timeouts accessing the server from Thunderbird.

After some googling I traced down FAM and the IDLE feature (which is 
confusing) as the likely culprit.  I replaced FAM with Gamin.  
Performance improved immediately, however it is still not good and 
messages like this now show up constantly in syslog:

 Feb 27 07:36:09 ohana imapd-ssl: 
 FAMMonitorDirectory(/home/chuck/Maildir/./new) failed: Broken pipe
 Feb 27 07:37:11 ohana imapd-ssl: 
 FAMMonitorDirectory(/home/chuck/Maildir/./new) failed: Broken pipe
 Feb 27 07:37:23 ohana imapd-ssl: 
 FAMMonitorDirectory(/home/chuck/Maildir/./.Open 
 Source.axis2.axis-dev/new) failed: Broken pipe

This is a debian Etch system running the debian Courier and Gamin 
packages.  The Courier package is based on upstream version 0.53.5.  I 
know these are not Sam's favorite packages, but unfortunately this is 
what we have on my favorite distribution.

One possible issue is that my Maildir has many folders and is a bit large:

 ohana:/home/chuck/Maildir# du -hs
 3.5G.
 ohana:/home/chuck/Maildir# du | wc -l
 3341

Does anybody have any suggestions?

Thanks a lot for any help!

Chuck

PS:  here is my IDLE configuration:

 ohana:/etc/courier# grep IDLE imapd
 # IMAP_CAPABILITY="IMAP4rev1 UIDPLUS CHILDREN NAMESPACE

Hello,

Where is the latest CVS version ?

(As my box has been hacked, I will have to destroy and rebuild it
There is no risk for now as I eliminated culprits and closed enough ports
The n00b tried to use a file named nc.exe on a debian server... I think 
he has not created a lot of mess :-) )

[Enrique Verdes]

Thank you for the help with this issue. Filtering is running smoothly.
Attached is the Jérôme version of clamav.py, with the mail warning I 
added. Maybe can be of some use to somebody there. In case you have 
suggestions  or improvements I'll be very thankfull if you let me know.

I'd use string formatting instead of concatenation:

message.set_payload(text)
mailServer = smtplib.SMTP('localhost:25')
mailServer.sendmail(sender, to, message.as_string())

Right there, you want:

 sender = courier.control.getSender(controlFileList)
 for recipient in courier.control.getRecipients(controlFileList):
 mail(recipient, sender)
 return 554 %s was detected. Abort! % avresult[bodyFile]

With clamd running as root everything is going fine. But, my boss asked 
me he wanted that, when a virus infected mail were rejected, the 
intended recipient get a warning about it. So, being my first time doing 
python programming, began looking on variuos web sites and crafted this 
solution using smtp and email.Message modules.

I encourage you to use the clamav.py filter from the distribution.  It

clamav.py from the distribution uses pyclamav. In the page of pyclamav 
they encourage to use the new pyclamd.



So it does.  I'm not sure why... the scanfile() function isn't affected, 
and still works as it always has.


  
Also, pyclamav uses clamav and 
libclamav 0.88 and  I'm running clamav 0.90.3.



You can rebuild pyclamav 0.4.0 with clamav 0.90.3.  It works.
  

No need...

It's not sufficient to just replace pyclamav with pyclamd. 
pyclamd.scan_file returns a different data type than pyclamav.scanfile 
does.  You might check the list archives, someone else was recently 
using pyclamd.
  

Here is the clamd.py I use on 2 servers...


Thanks Jerome, I tried your file, only modifying the clamd socket location.

Which user is running your clamd daemon?


Courier and clamd are working as root...
As the file is provided by pythonfilter to the clamd socket, I'm not 
sure that's the problem.


What are the permissions on pythonfilter file?
You can try to run clamd as root, but I don't think it will solve anything.

 I have also submitted a patch to Sam that includes redhat-rpm-config as a

available and required.

Heh - I just tried that :) Not sure if my previous message made it to the
list or not, but installing that has solved the problem.

I have also submitted a patch to Sam that includes redhat-rpm-config as a
dependency for the build.

Looks to me like CentOS, Fedora and RHEL all have redhat-rpm-config:

http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/6/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/redhat-rpm-config-8.0.45-6.noarch.rpm
http://mirrors.kernel.org/centos/5.0/os/i386/CentOS/redhat-rpm-config-8.0.45-17.el5.centos.noarch.rpm
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/5Client/en/os/SRPMS/redhat-rpm-config-8.0.45-17.el5.src.rpm

SUSE and Mandrake might not have it but I believe their deps are already 
broken anyways for the courier.spec anyway.  I could be wrong though, I 
haven't used either of them in quite awhile.


The package generally includes all files in /usr/lib/rpm/redhat which 
rpmbuild looks at for macros and rc files after looking for the files in 
/usr/lib/rpm.  I believe the purpose is to allow distribution specific 
options to be passed to rpmbuild.  rpmbuild will work fine if all the 
variables courier.spec uses are defined in the /usr/lib/rpm files but if 
they're not (as is the case in CentOS5) then the build will fail.

Thanks, Jay.  I was looking at this way too early.  I thought I did a 
yum search, and I hadn't.  I've really got to quit computing in the 
morning. :(

I'm using CentOS 5, and my builds went fine.  I think the problem is 
that /usr/lib/rpm/ia32e-linux/macros wasn't present on Wayne's system, 
and rpm reported that was the file it was using.

I just downloaded rpm x86_64 from CentOS, and looked at the package 
contents.  I can see that /usr/lib/rpm/x86_64-linux/macros is 
included, but rpm is looking for /usr/lib/rpm/ia32e-linux/macros.

This should be reported to Red Hat as a bug in rpm.  That file needs to 
be put in a directory which reflects the arch name that rpm is going to 
use to locate it later.  Duh.

Installing redhat-rpm-config fixes things in a roundabout way, but 
shouldn't be necessary.

 and than I did a dig mx outbound.mailhop.org and got nothing back,
our mail server is correct. the include domain is missing the mx
entry.

There is nothing wrong with our SPF record for 'dyndns.com'.
'outbound.mailhop.org' has no MX records because the mailserver at this
location should not receive email (no mailboxes for '@dyndns.com' or
'@outbound.mailhop.org' addresses).

You will need to change the mailserver's behavior, and/or simply use
another address to receive the account confirmation emails.  If you have
any questions, please feel free to ask.

Hi all,

Someone has some idea about??? I really want to use Courier, but without

Fabiano Felix
---BeginMessage---
Hi All,

I'm setting up a Postfix+Courier-Imap+Maildrop environment, which uses a
pre-existent LDAP base (with Unix and Samba objects), with non-virtual
users. Adding the courier.schema objects, I configure the system to
send/receive messages without any problem, except that I can't have
success using quota manager. I tested it using both courier and maildrop
(maildrop is the postfix default delivery agent).

I use the same apps configuration on an Postfix+Courier+Maildrop+MySQL
+Virtual+Users setup, and quota works fine... someone using these apps
with non-virtual users??? I tested many configurations, but I didn't
obtain success...

Any help will be apreciated...

With best regards,

I'm not sure if it's possible for authpam to pull the information or not 
but another possibility would be to create a simple script that connects 
to LDAP, retrieves the quota for each user and updates their 
$HOME/Maildir/maildirsize file if the LDAP quota setting has changed.  
It shouldn't require to many resources to run the script hourly so that 
changes would show up within the hour.

Your config file specifies several items that may be different than the 
defaults that are used when you use the command line mysql tool.

Log in as the daemon user (if that's what courier is running as):
su - daemon -s /bin/bash
Then try to connect to the socket and the TCP port.  See if one of them 
doesn't work:
mysql vexim -S /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock -u vexim -p
mysql vexim -h localhost -P 3306 -u vexim -p

[courier-users] Fwd: Having problem compiling the code

Does anyone know if my problem is related to having a version of the compiler and libaries that is too new for the latest version of Courier IMAP?

Just wondering if anyone could come up with any suggestions tothe problem that I'm still having? This morning, I ran "gmake clean", followed by gmake, and I'm still getting the error as described below:

I'm guessing the I'm missing something on my Linux box, but I can't figure out what it is. I've done multiple apt-cache searches and have installed (what I think is) all the apt-get pacakges I would need for gnu c++. Can you help?

I just checked again, and just as I thought, both the libstdc++-devel and libstdc++-ssa-devel are up to date and I have the latest ones, but I still have the same problem. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Is there any chance we can boot people off the list who do stuff like 
this? It is very annoying to have this message come back to me every 
time I post. Presumably I'll get yet another one of these as a result of 
this post, and [EMAIL PROTECTED] will be none the wiser because he'll never 
see it (I am not going to jump through these silly hoops just so this 
person can get the messages that he signed up to receive).

BTW, for anyone else out there who might be thinking this is an 
appropriate method for blocking spam, please go wash your brain out with 
soap. Just imagine if all 1400 people on this list decided to do the 
same thing: A new user joins the list, posts once, and gets flooded with 
1400 requests to follow all kinds of stupid little instructions before 
anyone will read what he wrote. Sheesh...

[courier-users] Fwd: fetchitem() patch

[Jan Stanik]

Hi

  here is the problem which our developer discovered in imapd in last
  version of courier (courier-0.45.2 on FreeBSD 4.9-RELEASE-p4)
  but sent it in wrong list ;-)
  
This is a forwarded message
From: Ondrej Jombik [EMAIL PROTECTED]
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Date: Wednesday, March 24, 2004, 4:11:42 PM
Subject: fetchitem() patch

===8==Original message text===
[ Please CC me in the answer as I'm not in the list ]

We discovered several SIGSEGVs while running Courier IMAP daemon.
Full backtrace concernin to this issue is in the attachement.

I discovered, that problem is in this part of code in fetch.c:

if (do_open  *fp == NULL)
{   
*fp=open_cached_fp(msgnum);
if (!*fp) {
*open_err=1;
return rc;
}
}

if (parsemime  !*mimep)
{   
*mimep=fetch_alloc_rfc2045(msgnum, *fp);
}

You can see, that if open_cached_fp() returns NULL, *open_err is properly set,
however *fp (with value of NULL) is passed into fetch_alloc_rfc2045() where
fseek(fp, 0L, SEEK_SET) is called causing immediate SIGSEGV (at least on
FreeBSD operating system).

Patch in the attachement tries to solve this.

Any reply would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Nepto

[courier-users] [Fwd: Re: courier-pop with maildir in /var/mail]

[Martin Arrieta]

hi:

(...)
The function of /etc/courier/hosteddomains is very similar to the one of
/etc/courier/locals. Both configuration files specify a list of domains
that are considered to be local domains - domains whose mailboxes are
stored locally.
(...) 

check this url

Re: [courier-users] Fwd: NOTICE: mail delivery status.

[Ricardo Kleemann]

Yes... strange! :-(

This happened yesterday, I tried multiple times to post a
message (always from the same account and same server) and
they would bounce.

I've seen this happen in the past. I don't know if I have
something misconfigured with my server, it happens very
rarely, and then towards the end of the day the list will
start accepting the post again. This is strange and
annoying. :-(

Is this a feature of courier, that it checks/verifies the
sender address (which, btw, has always been a perfectly
valid address)


 Wild... you're emailing this list with a rejection from
the list saying you can't email  it? Neat trick :-)Did you
send these messages from different servers or different 
 accounts?

==

Hello,

Does anyone know why I'm getting the error below? This
started happening all of a sudden. The sender address is
[EMAIL PROTECTED], which is a valid address...

Is this an error message generated by courier? If so, how
can courier be configured to test/check sender addresses?

Also, Please read below the original message I've been
trying to post, but which is getting bounced.

Thanks for your help.

I think that the 550 is the response from mail.sourceforge.net.  Your 
courier server tried to send your message and the server at the other end 
refused and returned 550 Sender verify failed.  So courier sent the message 
back to you as undeliverable.

Something happened at sourceforge's end that they didn't like your return 
address - but only certain times.  DNS weirdness???

Sourceforge introduced the 'callback' some moths ago.
Check your logs (as you always should before posting...) and you may see
a connect from there at the same time.

If you dont see anyting it was probably because you server was unreachable
like just now. mail1.americasnet.com has a delay of at least 30 seconds
until the greeting appears and mail2.americasnet.com just sits there without
any greeting at all for 2 minutes:

# telnet 38.118.152.247 25
Trying 38.118.152.247...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection timed out

You are probably using defunct dnsbl or something alike.
Additionally the identical priority of your mx prevents a fallback, one
good configured mailserver is still better than two messed up boxes ;)

From: Ricardo Kleemann [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: Please help understanding mailq, I have messages
that seem to be stuck Date: Mon, 08 Dec 2003 12:02:23
-0800

Hi,

I'm having a hard time understanding why a message that is
in the queue is still pending. I don't quite understand how
the queue mechanism works, even after having read the
queue.html document.

So as an example, I have a message in the queue, where the
maillog only shows a newmsg entry and does not have any
followup information:

Dec  8 10:04:41 server2 courierd:
newmsg,id=0F00536A.3FD4BD38.52AE: dns; mysql
(localhost
[:::127.0.0.1])

The message originated on the localhost from mailman, a
mailing list manager.

There is no other mention of this message id in the maillog,
and the message was queued up about 1 hour ago.

Even more strange, maybe, is that I've issed the command
courier flush 0F00536A.3FD4BD38.52AE at least once,
but the message does not leave the queue, and maillog still
makes no further references to the message.

I can see the message via mailq, here is its entry:

5.1K 0F00536A.3FD4BD38.52AE  Dec 08
10:04
daemon   sender
 list recip
 list recip
 list recip
 list recip
 list recip
 list recip
 list recip
 list recip
 ...

In this particular case, there were about 13 recipients for
delivery, all of which happened to be of the same domain.

When I look at the control file for this message, I don't
see any useful information that would indicate to me why the
message is still pending; it doesn't even seem, from looking
at both the control file and the maillog, that delivery has
even been attempted yet.

Here's the contents of the control file, with addresses
stripped out:

ssender
fdns; mysql (localhost [:::127.0.0.1])
e

M0F00536A.3FD4BD38.52AE

W1070921080
A1070906681

Could maybe the problem be related to my queuelo and queuehi
settings? I had set those to high values because my system
has a large number of queued messages at all times, but
maybe that is causing some problems...

I have queuelo=5000 and queuehi=1

Following suggestions from previous posts in this list, the
partition where var/msgq and var/msgs is, is mounted with
noatime, to increase performance. I hope there's no adverse
effect due to that.

Anyway, I can't understand why there would be a newmsg entry
in the log but then no other references to the message
whatsoever, even after trying to flush it out.

And the problem isn't with only this one message. The same
post to the list generated a few outgoing messages from
mailman, and there are 2 other related messages in the queue
which are also stuck.

Thanks for any help
Ricardo

I am shure there are several references to this problem in the

But you better spend the time with the long overdue upgrade.

thats not that easy .. 0.37 is still the version thats shipped with debian 3.0 
(woody)  and I like to stay with the debian packages

anyway I moved from a woody to a woody .. so no change in the version of 
courier, on the first server it worked on the second not.

2002-07-24  Mr. Sam  [EMAIL PROTECTED]

* courier/cmlmbounce.C: Ignore case of bounce tokens.
 
 archive - back when courier 0.37 was used.
 But you better spend the time with the long overdue upgrade.
 thats not that easy .. 0.37 is still the version thats shipped with debian
 3.0  (woody)  and I like to stay with the debian packages

Your choice, but apt easy allows to use unstable for individual packages,
and Debian would be rather unusable if not ;)

http://packages.debian.org/unstable/mail/courier-base.html

 anyway I moved from a woody to a woody .. so no change in the version of 
 courier, on the first server it worked on the second not.

Apt to 0.42.2, and this also fixes many bugs you dont want to know about.

[courier-users] [Fwd: Re: [Evolution] IMAP Problem - verbose debug]

[cdavis]

Can someone who knows a lot more about IMAP than I do help me with this. 
I am trying get Evolution to work with one of my IMAP accounts, and I have
been told that the server is not working correctly?  However, I have used
other mail clients with that server without any problem?

Well, according to that, its sending the * CAPABLITY response on two
lines - which is invalid.

Not that that makes any sense ... unless its a custom courier imapd or
something else is interfereing with the stream.

At least, i'm pretty sure the code keeps reading the input until it
reaches a \r\n, and not just each packet, might need to check that.

  No you're not.  IMAP is only used to receive  store mail, not send
  it.

[courier-users] (fwd) Re: maildir in Gnus vs. clock corrections and PID recycling

[Matthias Andree]

Paul Jarc found a problem with the new/time.inode.hostname approach, he
suggests tagging the inode, such as new/1234567890.i4321.hermes, read

 It seems that Postfix, Courier and Maildrop will settle on using the

What I saw in the qmail archives was new/time.inode.pid.hostname.
time.inode.hostname is extremely broken, and must not be used: there
might be two delivery programs running at once.  One might be an old
one using pid and the other might be a new one using inode.  If the
old one's pid is the same as the new one's inode, you can get a
collision.  So it should be time.iinode.hostname instead, to
ensure that it cannot be confused with the old format.  Please pass
this on to anyone who is planning to use time.inode.hostname.

Re: [courier-users] [Fwd: imap and ldap]

[Theodore Knab]

 Does this affect my courier-imap lookup? if so, what should i do? if not,
 then could you please give me any suggestions?

No, I asked the same question on the OpenLDAP list a few months back.

 Hi all, i am still having trouble connecting courier and ldap, and i
 think my problem is ldap related, because i have modified my ldif entry
 and my authldaprc file several times with no luck, please i need to know
 if im missing something here or if i should edit another file or what
 this is my curent ldap entry and authldaprc files:

For the other questions, you need to show some logs.

It is very difficulty to simply guess what is going wrong from your 
configuration files, although they help too.

run a tail -f /var/log/syslog on your imap server

run tail -f /var/log/syslog on your ldap server.

Setup your /etc/ldap/slapd.conf file to allow verbose logging and restart 
slapd.
I like #loglevel 4

You need to narrow the problem down.

Use courierauthtest it will give you a better idea where things are failing.

Title:  Courier CPU exhaustion
Author: ZARAZA [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Date:   May, 31 2002
Affected:   courier-0.38.1
Vendor: Double Precision, Inc.
Risk:   Low to average
Remote: Yes
Exploitable:Yes
Vendor notified:May, 20 2002
Product URL:http://www.courier-mta.org
SECURITY.NNOV URL:  http://www.security.nnov.ru
Advanced info:  http://www.security.nnov.ru/search/news.asp?binid=2055

Introduction:

Courier is widely used suite of e-mail services written with security in
mind.

Problem:

A  loop  with  unchecked  iteration counter controlled by user input may
cause  courier  to  freeze  for  over  the minute with 100% CPU usage on
single command or message.

Details:

rfc822_parsedt.c:

unsigned day=0, mon=0, year;
...
unsigned y;
...
if (year  1970)return (0);
...
for (y=1970; yyear; y++) ...

year may be any unsigned integer.


Vendor:

 Sam  Varshavchik  [EMAIL PROTECTED]  was  contacted  on  May, 20.
 Problem was patched in CVS version on the same day.
  
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Bonus on imap-uw:

Imap-uw allows user to access any file he could access locally. It's not
a  bug  it's  insecurity  by design (it was not created with security in
mind  ;-). According FAQ from vendor's web site (it's not mentioned in a
FAQ inside program distribution):

-=-=-=-=-=-=-

5.1  I  see  that the IMAP server allows access to arbitary files on the
system, including /etc/passwd! How do I disable this?

 You  should  not  worry about this if your IMAP users are allowed shell
 access.  The  IMAP  server does not permit any access that the user can
 not have via the shell. If, and only if, you deny your IMAP users shell
 access,  you may want to consider one of three choices. Note that these
 choices  reduce  IMAP  functionality,  and  may  have  undesirable side
 effects.   Each   of   these   choices   involves   an   edit  to  file
 src/osdep/unix/env_unix.c

 The  first  (and recommended) choice is to set restrictBox as described
 in  file  CONFIG.  This  will disable access to the filesystem root, to
 other users' home directory, and to superior directory.

 The second (and strongly NOT recommended) choice is to set closedBox as
 described  in file CONFIG. This puts each IMAP session into a so-called
 chroot  jail, and thus setting this option is extremely dangerous; it
 can  make  your  system  much  less  secure and open to root compromise
 attacks.  So  do  not use this option unless you are absolutely certain
 that you understand all the issues of a chroot jail.

 The  third  choice  is  to  rewrite  routine mailboxfile() to implement
 whatever   mapping   from   mailbox   name   to  filesystem  name  (and
 restrictions)  that  you  wish.  This  is the most general choice. As a
 guide,  you  can  see  at  the  start of routine mailboxfile() what the
 restrictBox choice does.

-=-=-=-=-=-

 It  should  be  noted  that  restrictBox/closedBox  is not described in
 neither  CONFIG nor any other document from program distribution at all
 (as for imap-2001a)... And even if you smart enough to check the FAQ on
 the  web  site after you red the FAQ in source distribution restrictBox
 can   be   bypassed   in  case  of  any  Windows  builds  (for  example
 http://sourceforge.net/projects/uw-imap-cygwin/) because '\\' symbol is
 never  checked. Hope nobody uses UW under NT or a version from OS ports
 distribution in production environment because as far as I can see port
 maintainers do not change the value of closedBox :).

 I'm  not sure if there are utilities to access file system via imap-uw,
 a created a small set of tools you can download imaptools.tgz from
 http://www.security.nnov.ru/search/news.asp?binid=2063

 it includes:

  imapget.c - to retrieve file via imap-uw, usage example:
imapget imap.host.name /etc/passwd  passwd
it should work for both text and binary files.

  imapls.c - to get a file listing, usage example:
imapls imaphostname /tmp/\*  ls-tmp

  imaprm.c, imapmkdir.c - hope you catch the idea.

  it's also possible to create file with any name in mailbox format.

hi again,
after finally having configured courier-imap to work with mysql i now need 
to get pop3 to work...
but when i am starting /usr/sbin/courier-pop3d i only get

my /etc/courier-imap/pop3d looks like this:

   symbion courier-imap # egrep ^[^#] pop3d
   prefix=/usr
   exec_prefix=/usr
   sbindir=/usr/sbin

is there a way to check POP3 connections against the MySQL database i set 
up for IMAP (and that is actually working fine with IMAP). i guess 
POP3AUTH= must be set to something like mysql or so... but i have no 
idea. i couldnt really get any reasonable information on the web,...
can anyone help?

input/output relays are every bit as much a problem as single host open

[courier-users] [Fwd: stupid mail servers, broken STARTTLS fallback]

[steve j. kondik]

i know that courier's policy toward stupid mailservers and stupid
administrators has always been pretty straightforward, but here is a
situation where the remote server is advertising TLS but isn't
configured for it.  courier doesn't fall back to non-TLS delivery in
this situation:
