Suspending an POP3 account.

Hi, I'd like to be able to suspend a POP3 account without changing the client's password. Is there anything I can do to the home directory or Maildir to accomplish this? What I'm doing the for incoming mail is a simple .qmail file that creates a message and spits back an error saying

(lack of payment) clients when using a passwd/shadow authentication method. Any ideas on a solution? Though different checkpassword and pop programs will handle the problem differently, changing the _permissions_ on the ~Maildir/* so the owner doesn't have read access will work.

Re: *sigh* performance issues again. Please help!

at a 100% CPU. Get cyclog (as far as I know it will fix this problem, although again I have not tested it, yet). Or some other syslogd replacement (for linux users, hit www.freshmeat.net). Hope this helps whoever needs it. Reid Sutherland Network Administrator ISYS Technology Inc. http

Re: Using qmail with CGI feedback form - needing reference

As per the qmail install doc, you must link /usr/lib/sendmail to /var/qmail/bin/sendmail. (ln -s /var/qmail/bin/sendmail /usr/lib/sendmail) I've used multiple form mailers, and they all work fine with qmail's sendmail replacement. Reid Sutherland Network Administrator ISYS Technology Inc. http

Re: Using qmail with CGI feedback form - needing reference

Linking /var/qmail/bin/sendmail ensures backwards capatibility with older programs / scripts that use the old sendmail. Using /var/qmail/bin/sendmail in your script is the same as the link /usr/lib/sendmail. Reid Sutherland Network Administrator ISYS Technology Inc. http://www.isys.ca

Re: tcpserver and firewalls/NAT

Makes sense. The man stated something in regards to TCPREMOTEINFO which throws me off. But now I know :) Thanks again, the problem seems to be fixed now. Reid Sutherland Network Administrator ISYS Technology Inc. http://www.isys.ca Fingerprint: 1683 001F A573 B6DF A074 0C96 DBE0 A070 28BE

tcpserver and firewalls/NAT

/pop3 both running under tcpserver. I've tried adding the -o option, but with still no results. Has anyone seen this problem, or have an answer for me? Reid Sutherland Network Administrator ISYS Technology Inc. http://www.isys.ca Fingerprint: 1683 001F A573 B6DF A074 0C96 DBE0 A070 28BE EEA5

Re: inetd-smtp/tcp problem

inetd natively sucks. Get tcpserver from DJB's page. If you need help setting that up, hit the FAQ, then hit the mailling list archive, then hit the list if all else fails. Hope this helps. Reid Sutherland Network Administrator ISYS Technology Inc. http://www.isys.ca Fingerprint: 1683 001F A573

Re: ERR User has no $HOME/maildir (STILL GETTING ERROR)

Did you check the /etc/passwd file to make sure it's pointing to the right dir? Such as /home/whoever. Also, chown the home to that person, chown -R whoever /home/whoever Try those. Reid SutherlandNetwork AdministratorISYS Technology Inc.http://www.isys.caFingerprint: 1683 001F A573 B6DF

Something a little interesting...

http://www.mindcraft.com/whitepapers/nts4rhlinux.html Not really related to email, but, I found it interesting how this company makes a claim that has been proven wrong millions of times, NT is NOT faster then Linux. I think the report is bogus. Reid Sutherland Network Administrator ISYS

qpop3d and PAM

I'm having problems with qpop3d and accepting passwords longer then 8 characters. I'm running PAM 0.64 with the bigcrypt encryption algorithim. Anything shorter then 8 char will be accepted. Very weird, because I had it working before. :/ Thanks. Reid Sutherland Network Administrator ISYS

Connection closed on qmail-smtpd using tcp-env

the INSTALL file, it works fine. But when I make use of tcpd, it pukes. Now my tcpd works fine, because I have many lines in my hosts.allow, and other services respond to it fine. Also my hosts.deny is set to ALL:ALL. Thanks. Reid Sutherland Network Administrator ISYS Technology Inc. http

Customizing return messages. (MAILER-DAEMON messages)

Anyone know how to customize those messages. Instead of the "...sorry it didn't work out." stuff. I don't think my boss thinks it's "professional". Personally I don't care, it's a damn return message. :) But anyone know where I could customize. Even if I have to recompil

Re: Connection problems.

and then it says the remote system has closed the connection. I'm telneting from localhost to port 25. And if I telnet from anywhere else it does the same thing. I've removed my hosts.allow and hosts.deny and I still get the same problem. I have no clue what's doing it. Thanks. Reid Sutherland Network
