Sam Varshavchik writes: Warren Konkel writes: I read somewhere that there's a setting somewhere in the imap config file that will turn on auto-sending of anything placed in the Outbox, but will courier then move it to a Sent Items box when it's done or something? No. Although the Outbox is a great feature, you can do a lot yourself using cronjobs. It takes some thinking to get it right, but once it works, it works great. One can implement an outbox this way that does move the item to sent items. I use this myself to process the occasionally misidentified spam or ham. By placing it in the right folder, a cronjob picks it up, feeds it through spamassassin, if spam sends it to spamcop, and files the message in the appropriate folder. This is very easy to do when one user is involved. When multiple users are involved it is actually not that much harder, something like (I have real users and virtual domains): for d in /home/*/Maildir/.Outbox/cur/ `find /var/vmail \ -path /var/vmail/*/.Outbox/cur/` do # process outbox done Processing of a mailbox should ofcourse be done in a manner that is resilient to multiple invocations of the script, I leave that up to your imagination.

David Corbin writes: In the IMAP protocol the server cannot unilaterally inform the client that a message has been removed. The server can inform the client only when the client explicitly requests a folder status update. It's true that some clients crash, or are otherwise unable to gracefully handle the situation where the requested message is not available. There's nothing that the server can do about that. I'm not asking for the server to tell the client that a message is removed. The problem is that when the client polls the server a minute later, the server still says it has X messages, where X 0, when X is in fact 0. That's how IMAP works. If the server previously told the client there are X messages in the folder, the server can't suddenly tell the client that there are now X-1 messages in the folder, unless the server first notifies the client that a message was removed. And the server cannot notify the client that the message is removed until the client asks whether or not messages were removed. I'm not worried at all about the client trying to access the email that is now gone. I want the client to accurately reflect the number of total and unread messages, which it is not doing. And, as near as I can tell, this is a server problem and not a client problem. This behavior is required by the IMAP protocol. Additionally, the client has no business whatsoever asking the server how many messages there are in the current folder. The client already knows that, as part of the IMAP protocol exchange. Such a request indicates that the client is poorly designed. pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

Re: [courier-users] Re: imap/pop over ssl
I'd tend to think option A is more likely. I have been playing with pop and imap over ssl with Outlook for a while and have not found it to do anything other than throw warnings that you can then accept or decline (this is with newer versions of Outlook and Express). Specifically, if the CN on the certificate is not exactly the same as the server name entered in Outlook config, Outlook throws an warning. It throws a different warning if the cert is self-signed (but either way you can still accept it). To install a self-signed cert on your client computers, save the certificate as mycert.crt and then double click it in Windows. Click Install Certificate and pretty much accept the defaults. It should then let you use a self-signed cert with no warnings. You can view the certs you have installed or add/remove them from within IE's ToolsInternet Options or from the certificate manager in XP. Hope that helps.

Depending on exactly which version of Outlook you have, and which operating system, and which set of updates for each you have currently got installed, Outlook will display a bunch of different odd behaviours.

Andrew writes: I'm a little confused as to why my setup is working the way it is. In my imap-ssl configuration file, I have these lines: SSLPORT=993 SSLADDRESS=0 IMAPDSSLSTART=NO IMAPDSTARTTLS=YES IMAP_TLS_REQUIRED=0 As I understand things, IMAPDSSLSTART tells Courier to use SSL for IMAP connections on port 993 and the IMAPDSTARTTLS line tells Courier to use the TLS protocol on port 143. I'm using the imapd-ssl.rc file to start Courier and Courier is only listening on port 993. I've configured my mail clients to use SSL when imapd-ssl.rc starts imap-over-ssl on port 993 no matter what the configuration file says. Similar for imapd.rc. They do not use these variables. They are for a higher level script, such as an initscript, that checks these variables, and runs or doesn't run imapd.rc/imapd-ssl.rc accordingly. What I want to know is, why don't I have to set IMAPDSSLSTART to yes in the configuration file? What settings would I need to use if I wanted to use the starttls protocol on port 143?

[courier-users] Re: imap authdaemon process and memory behavior
Brian Candler writes: Um, practically speaking, what does that mean for the client? My experience/bias with http makes me want to lower this 30 minutes to something more like two minutes. If I could do this, what would the user experience? Bad things. RFC2060: 5.4.Autologout Timer If a server has an inactivity autologout timer, that timer MUST be of at least 30 minutes' duration. The receipt of ANY command from the client during that interval SHOULD suffice to reset the autologout timer. IMAP is a remote message store which you browse interactively - and many mails take longer to read than 2 minutes. The burden on the server of maintaining an inactive process is minimal; the burden of doing additional authentications and re-scanning mailboxes is not. My basic concern is that if, as in the case of Courier, it is one process per user, for thirty minutes, than how many users can your typical 1U web server support? I have never used an IMAP MUA, so I have no notion of how users normally interact with one. What happens after thirty minutes? Does the user have to login again? That is not what happened to me today when testing with Outlook Express and Eudora. They had my password cached (I gather) and I was seemingly able to kill the backend processes willy nilly without seeming to hurt anything. So if the timeout is shortened, what might the user experience?

You said it worked on 4.7x, but Netscape 6 should be the same as Mozilla. Yes, upping the connection limit fixes the problem, (until a user has enough folders to exceed the limit). No, I have plenty of folders to run into the problem. Mozilla ONLY opens 5 connections, by default. I initially set my MAXPERIP up to the MAXDAEMONS value, and found that Mozilla would only open 5 connections. So then I went looking in prefs.js for a value of 5, and found it. Now, MAXPERIP is set to 5 and Mozilla's setting is 4, so that we should be cool. Also, I think Outlook x.x opens a new connection for each IMAP account it has set up, but uses that same connection for each folder, so it was only hanging because I have 8 IMAP accounts being checked at once. My guess too. I haven't seen multiple connections from either Outlook or OE, but I only use one account at a time on those.

You can implement this using an intelligent .courier-default file (all
on
one line):
|| x=`echo $DEFAULT | tr '/' '.'`; test -d $HOME/Maildir/.$x || exit
|| 0;
echo $HOME/Maildir/.$x/. ; exit 99
Haven't really tested this, but it should work. Haven't also looked at
this
closely, but it should be safe from envelope-based attacks. A shell
script
is also not a terribly efficient way to go about this, but you can
always
write some tiny executable binary that does the same thing.

RE: [courier-users] Re: IMAP Folders
Hi
Sorry Sam.
I shouldn't have posted the last message. I got a bit confused with the
$HOME/.courier-default and /aliasdir/.courier-default files but I
managed to figure it out.
Here's what I did.
(1) I created a user imap with a maildir
(1) I created a file /usr/lib/courier/etc/aliasdir/.courier-default with
the following line
|| echo imap-$[EMAIL PROTECTED]
(2) I create a file /home/imap/.courier-default with the following two
lines
|| x=`echo $DEFAULT`; test ! -d $HOME/Maildir/.$x || echo
$HOME/Maildir/.$x
|| x=`echo $DEFAULT`; test ! -d $HOME/Maildir/.$x || echo
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
When courier is unable to resolve an email address, it attempts to see
if there is an imap folder with the same name. If the imap folder is
found, then the mail is delivery to it. If the folder is not found, then
the email is returned to the postmaster.
This probably isn't the most efficient method of handling the imap
folder but it allows me have emails list [EMAIL PROTECTED] without
creating a user account called anyone. This more or less duplicates the
functionality of public folders in MS Exchange.
Does anyone see any problems with what I have done.
Thanks for your help.

Hi
The sample you provided works for a courier-{user}-default file but
not a courier-default file.
You are incorrect on both cases. I provide a sample .courier-default
file.
courier-{user}-default is run under the {user} account
No it's not. .courier-{foo} is run under the user's account.
courier-default is run under the courier daemon account (i.e. courier)
Not true either.
Since any mail delivery to a Maildir by the courier-default file will
only be readable by the courier daemon account, what use is a
courier-default file?
See the dot-courier(5) man page.

What I have not been able to figure out is how to get an account setup so that mail for that account ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) goes to the shared folder. The current design of shared folders does not permit mail to be delivered to a shared folder directly. Mail has to be delivered to a regular INBOX (or another folder in the INBOX first, then copied to a shared folder manually. Shared folders are meant to be simply as a convenient way to swap mail without explicit forwarding.

I created a test user and captured the strace output from both the IMAP process and the mail client.

[courier-users] Re: IMAP (More infomation)
I noticed that the IMAP strace shows a /dev/tty error that doesn't appear in a POP3 strace (POP3 has no mention of /dev/tty at all). I don't know that means anything, but it made me think of one other thing that I forgot to mention: My systems all run devfs _without_ compatibility mode turned on. Should that cause a problem for Courier? FWIW I also use reiserfs, but that doesn't strike me as a potential source of problems. m. ___ courier-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-users

Commands I've issued are prefixed with @@ to find them easily, and the very beginning of the log shows the environment variables that are set.

This actually happens to _several_ of the files in the bin directory, including the pop3 binary. I thought all those symlinks looked a little strange, but since everything else was working fine, I assumed that, for whatever reason, that was just the way things were done. Note that bin/pop3d and bin/pop3d-ssl are ALSO symlinks to startup scripts, just like bin/imapd, but POP3 works fine. For this reason it didn't occur to me that the installation was bad. Seriously, despite all those crazy symlinks, the rest of Courier exhibits no end-user problems at all. Glad you spotted this. I'm digging into the problem right now, but I thought I'd share the news and post the link to the log file in case you or someone else wanted to see it also.

I've posted the complete build log to: http://karmak.org/2002/01/courier/i686-pc-linux-gnu.1.log Woo-hoo! IMAP is now working. The problem was that I don't typically use 'sbin' on my machine, instead consolidating all binaries into bin. I specify this at 'configure' time with --sbindir=/path/to/bin. In the case of Courier, as you've probably guessed by this point, there is file named 'imapd' in BOTH bin and sbin: The binary in bin, and the script in sbin. So, the installation did exactly what I told it to, first installing the binary in 'bindir', then promptly overwriting it with the script in 'sbindir'. I changed the configure variable, and now things are working like a charm. Many thanks for taking the time out to find the problem. As a token of thanks I'll be typing up a document describing the way I got Courier installed and running on my system.
