Mail on FreeBSD
Hi, I was wondering if there was a web based system to check mail on a freebsd system.I wanted to setup a mail system for all users on the intranet.I have successfully installed sendmail and can send and receive mail on the system.(using pine).But how do i go about setting up a system for external lan users without them telnetting into the system?.Would i need a pop3 server?

Thanks, akshay. Hi, you have a number of options open to you, you can try a POP3 installation, you could get adventurous and go for IMAP. A Webmail setup is also one way to deal with your situation. You could even get really carried away and install all of the above. A quick check in the ports dir and qpopper is available as is solidpop3d and a number of others. I guess the trick is for you to work out which one suits your situation best. FWIW webmail can be a bit cumbersome at times your users might prefer POP3 or IMAP.

RE: Mail on FreeBSD
Hi, You should take a look at IMP (http://www.horde.org/imp/) or Squirrelmail, both of which are webmail solutions, and both can be found in the ports tree. They do however, require either a POP3 or IMAP server, and a server with PHP and a few other minor dependencies. Alternatively, you could try neomail, which can access local mailspool files using just perl. Good luck.

RE: Squirrel Mail on freebsd
hello, Anyone know of any bugs when running (or trying to run) squirrelmail off a freebsd box? Coz I have been trying to do this for a while now with appaling results timeouts, php related errors like maximum execution time exceeded, very slow response, and it seems that it cannot handle loads like lots of mail in the mailbox etc. If someone has used squirrelmail successfully on freebsd, I'd please like to know what configuration you are using, eg what imap server, what mail formats etc, Thanx in advance. I've been using Squirrelmail 1.2.9 on my system for about a week now. It was built from ports apart from a few teething troubles, parltly caused by my lack of knowledge I'm having a great time with it. My system comprises - Sendmail 8.12.6 (built from source) IMAP-UW 2002a (built from source) Apache13-modssl 1.3.27 (built from ports) PHP 4.2.3 (built from ports) Don't know too much about mail formats, I just created a 'mail' dir in my home directory altered IMAP-UW to use that before compiling (instructions on IMAP-UW site I think). For the slow response with many mails, you might try - cd /usr/local/squirrelmail ./configure Select option 4 'General Options' Set options 11 12 to 'true' Hope this helps a bit To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

Re: What are the SMTP rules for sending mail to FreeBSD
ISTR Postfix replies with 450 to (almost) all errors by default. And there are errors where you need to escalate the 4xx response to 554 to stop the sending MTA from re-trying for days, or just harvest the 4xx ip's to a new .map filean block with 554. Postfix's new sender address verification is extremely effective in blocking crap that used to get through, but it always returns 4xx so your reject counts go through the roof as SAV 4xx rejects are re-tried 100's of times. But, in fact, this is more of a resource consumption for the senders than it is on your MX. And the advantage of keeping this crap out of your system outweighs the higher rate of repeated rejects.

Re: What are the SMTP rules for sending mail to FreeBSD
Easier said than done. I've been assigned 66.45.116.136/29 by the ISP. .136 is not a power of 2 which is required for classless reverse delegation. It should be .132/29 or .140/29 I control DNS for quadtelecom.com, but I don't control the reverse lookup. I'd like to know the exact algorithm in use, so that I can negotiate with my ISP. For sub-Class C delegation, see the DNS BIND book, 4th edition. 1. Your ISP creates a arbitrarily named node in the reverse domain and delegates the zone to you: tabak.116.45.66.in-addr.arpa. NS ns1.quadtelecom.com. tabak.116.45.66.in-addr.arpa. NS ns2.quadtelecom.com. 2. then for each ip in your tabak subzone he create a CNAME in his NS: 133.116.45.66.in-addr.arpa. CNAME 133.tabak.116.45.66.in-addr.arpa. . . . 139.116.45.66.in-addr.arpa. CNAME 139.tabak.116.45.66.in-addr.arpa. 3. then in your NS: 133.tabak.116.45.66.in-addr.arpa. PTR name.what.ever. . . . 139.tabak.116.45.66.in-addr.arpa. PTR hostname.some.dom. The rule is that the parent domain's CNAME rdata field must, of course, be matched the child domain's PTR owner field. For example, how are are hosts with multiple IP adresses handled? put only one PTR per ip.

I have an IP that has a lot of forward names, but the PTR points at the ISPs name. I don't have any trouble with sendmail sending and receiving internet email. even tho the PTR returns one of many name for the IP? freebsd.org does not care if your reverse DNS mapping points back to the name you identified yourself with, it only checks that the name the server IDs itself as when submitting email resolves to the correct IP address.

Anything interesting in your log files? Look in /var/log/maillog for lines related to the messages stuck in your queue.
