Is there any way to see these if you don't have XFmail?
VM under XEmacs and Zmail (which was bundled with IRIX for a while)
both handle X-Faces.
Hi
I am new to qmail. In our office we have a lotus notes mail server ADSC which
handles incoming and outgoing mails. Now we want to introduce a linux based

I looked through a lot of E-mail qmail archive discussing it, but I did not
see any solution.

I run setlock to lock qmail-pop3d sessions on a per-user basis. Setlock
runs the poplogger script to log POP activity.
After two days of running smoothly, setlock fails with something close to:

I'm goofing around with HP's OpenMail for Linux. One of the things it
requires (wants) is a sendmail installation to route e-mail. During
installation, OpenMail attempts to add some rules to the sendmail.cf.
Basically, it looks like it just finds mail destined for "*/*" or "*;*" and

I run the poplogger script with setlock for my qmail-pop3d invocation.
After running fine for two days, I get an error similar to:

What's strange is that poplogger.sh is set to 755:

Please excuse my blunt language, but what you suggest is dumb,
broken, and a malicious attack on a fundamentally necessary property
of SMTP.
Far better would be to either (a) block reception of mail from the
broken site, which eliminates the need to bounce messages to them,
or (b) write a patch
Hi all,
Our current mail system uses qmail as the front end to an MS Mail system.
It looks something like this:

Here's related question. What should internal domains be called and how
are they setup in DNS? I've always used a non-existant domain name that I
made up, but I know this is wrong. What's the correct solution?
