Hi,
I'm trying to increase the robustness of our qmail environment by setting up
multiple default routes in control/smtproutes such as:
...
:hub1.company.com
:hub2.company.com
The problem is that the emails will only route to hub1 and never to hub2.
Before I try to implement round robin DNS or lbnamed, is there any way to
set up in qmail so that it will automatically fall over to hub2 if hub1
fails, or do a random choice between hub1/2?
Thanks,
Kai

smtproutes isn't really there for this; it's to hardcode the equivalent of
an MX when you want to override that (for an internal domain that doesn't
have one, etc). Is there something wrong with letting qmail look up
MX records for mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], and using the MX records? It will
then fall back to lower-priority MX hosts when the higher priority MX host
is unavailable, giving you your desired robustness.

If you don't absolutely have to have a cute GUI, it looks like some folks
have compiled mutt for Windows*. It's a cygwin thing to compile, so it won't
be totally straightforward. However, if you want a tremendously powerful
mailer, I'd highly suggest at least looking into it.

Outlook's error messages are generally worthless, but in this case
"Can't connect to server" seems quite clear. This is not an authentication
issue.

I think you had to give it your fqhn and not the (virtual) domainname...
> my virtual domain is dbeit.com
> one user is [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Did you login with username "mike" or "mike%dbeit.com" ?
Let´s take a look at the FAQ:
---snip---
1. How do I pop in to pick up my virtual domain email?
Virtual domain users need to use the following format for thier
user name when popping in:
user%virtual_domain_name
Eudora might require the following syntax
user%virtual_domain_name@pophost
If you don't include the %virtual_domain_name, vpopmail will
assume it is either a /etc/passwd user or a vpop user in
~vpopmail/users or configured with "default domain".

By the way, I'm almost willing to put money on the fact that the
next major version of qmail will no longer have this ``hidden
limit'' on operating systems that support poll(2).
Why? Because newer DJB packages use the iopause interface[1],
which internally uses poll(2). I am rather confident that qmail
will follow.

No. You'll be surprised how many newbies start new threads by

Hi all
I have a slight problem that i am apparently to stupid to figure out how to solve :(
i have set up virtual domains to all be handled by the alias user.
The alias user then forwards the mails to the virtual domains to the right local users
or forwards
them to a remote host.
The problem i have is when forwarding to local users.
example:
i have a virtual domain like this:
domain.com:alias-domain:com
now i get a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] which is then handled by
alias/.qmail-domain:com-mbj-default and
it looks like this:
&[EMAIL PROTECTED]
the problem is that user mbj doesn't have control over [EMAIL PROTECTED] with this
setup since
[EMAIL PROTECTED] also goes to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
and not
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
like i want it to.... how can i make it work the right way?
i mean, without having to set up individual .qmail-ext files for all the users in
alias's home
dir....

That address is the standard one used for bounces. That's why badmailfrom
doesn't let you block it.

Difficult, because they are control characters (check DJB "E Mail Header"
page).
In your case, E-Mails with the "RCPT TO:" lines seem to be bounces. Use my
SPAMCONTROL patch (version 1.30) which includes additional sender MX checks.
cheers.

The qmail-getpw program is responsible for telling qmail where .qmail
files responsible for a given local address are; your problems could
be caused by its confusion. What is the output of:
$ qmail-getpw t-online | xargs -0 echo
$ id alias

Hmm...Okay, well, I'm using QPOP 3.0.2, I've even recompiled it a couple
times. When I look at the messages that are getting appended. There is a
normal header at the beginning, but at the end, the header of the next
message is prefixed with a '>' on the first line of the header. I'll see
if I can also ask someone associated with Qualcomm, but I have this setup
running on other systems without any problems (read exactly the same but
for hardware and the SMTP_AUTH patch).
The problematic system is:
Sun Ultra II Enterprise w/ dual 200mhz chips
1.2G RAM
20G SCSI storage
Solaris 8
qmail 1.03 w/ Mrs. Brisby's SMTP_AUTH patch, and checkpasswd
QPOP 3.0.2
Hope that helps. If I /have/ to, I'll go to Maildir, but I'd hate to have
to do that.
Please let me know.

Did you change any config values between the recompiles or did you just
recompile and expect the compiler would generate different code each time?
If the former, what did you change? If the latter, why did you expect that?

Why not show us those lines exactly? It would help. Are they, perchance lines
that start with the string "From "?

Why is that? You might get a pleasant surprise. If your users only access
via POP, then the change-over may be worth it.

One issue is whether qpopper is compiled to use the same locking method as
qmail-local. The dot-qmail manpage explains the locking method that qmail-local
uses.

1. Please don't send HTML mail with attached graphics.
2. Look into vpopmail or vmailmgr. Links to those and other useful

I have installed qmail server in my FreeBSD 4.1.1-stable box, I've also
got tcpserver, courier-imap running, ipfilter and IPsec running as well.
IPsec is running between my cllient and server box. The following
diagram illustrate the my basic networking:
Client (FreeBSD 4.1-stable) -> Server (FreeBSD 4.1.1-stable) ->Internet
(sendmail) (Qmail server)
sec.rock.com fastline.rock.com
I don't think ipfilter and IPSec blocks the connection, because server
box (FreeBSD 4.1.1-stable) can send email to the client machine (FreeBSD
4.1-stable). The problem is the client box cannot send email to the
server. Whenever it sends email, an error msg will be raised by sendmail
with the "Connection reset by server" err msg. Besides, server can
client can ping each other, and client can ping and lynx outside wild
wild internet websites. I can send emails within my server box. email
can be sent to theh client box.
Here is the error msg from /var/log/maillog:

Can anyone tell me what may be wrong with it?

Title: Message
MessageApart from the fact that (and this I guess :> ) was a pointless waste
of bandwidth for the qmail list,
1. We don't like HTML messages in general...
2. Your date looks screwed

Hi !
I use xinetd for invoking qmail
next configuration:
service smtp
{
flags = NODELY REUSE NAMEINARGS
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = qmaild
id = smtp
server = /var/qmail/bin/tcp-env
server_args = -R /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd
log_on_success -= DURATION USERID PID HOST EXIT
log_on_failure -= USERID HOST ATTEMPT RECORD
}
but I have delay about 10 sec when I try to use smtp
How I can remove this delay ????
P S: iF i remove -R option delay become 1 or 1.5 minutes
and next question how I can set relay rules

--- you should check, WHERE Xinetd stores the log. Ususally thats defined
in the header section of the xinetd.conf Check also your /etc/syslog.conf.

-- you have to use tcpserver instead or to apply the "relaymailfrom" or my
SPAMCONTROL patch.

hi all,
i'm using qmail with vpopmail (inter7). i'm having this problem that, i've
set up alias files at /home/vpopmail/domains/mydomain/.qmail-myalias
and the file format is
/home/vpopmail/domains/mydomain/user1/Maildir/
/home/vpopmail/domains/mydomain/user2/Maildir/
/home/vpopmail/domains/mydomain/user3/Maildir/
/home/vpopmail/domains/mydomain/user4/Maildir/
/home/vpopmail/domains/mydomain/user5/Maildir/
/home/vpopmail/domains/mydomain/user6/Maildir/
sometime (inconsistant problem), some users, for example user1 and user6
will receive multiple copy of the same mail that sent to this
[EMAIL PROTECTED] over and over again, what could be wrong here? where
should i start tracking this problem from?
thanks!

I have this problem I dont even know how to start solving...
There is this mail server for a company that is online most of the time
(18-20 hours a day), but it can happen, that the server goes offline for
some period (dont ask, I tried, but they dont want to change it!).
Ok, I thought, so I put that server as the primary MX, and put another as a
lower priority MX...
As far as I understand this, any mail server that want to send mail to the
primary MX will do so, if that server is available. If not, it will use a
lower priority one.... Correct?
Ok, but how do I get the lower priority mail server to send mail to the
primary one when he comes online? My guess is that something like smptget*
(whatever) is not really a sollution...
Thanks in advance, Goran

Yes

A few ideas here...
1. Have a rexec script set up...when the primary one comes online, it
rexec's a script on the secondary server that runs /etc/rc.d/init.d/qmail
alrm (presuming you are using SysVinit style scripts...if not, check them
out and find out how to send alrm to svc). I use this for all of our
subsidiary servers. You may have to play with sudo a bit...
2. Learn about the ETRN capabilities of qmail
3. Mail is deferred on the secondary server, not just held. At extending
intervals, it is attempted to be sent again. (It is almost logarithmic...but
I don't guarantee this). You could just wait. That may mean mail won't be
delivered for up to 4 hours after the primary server comes online, but its
easy, and it could win you some points to keep your primary server online
permanently!
Enjoy

OK I want to limit the size of e-mails to particular aliases on my qmail
system. This is a weird concept, and not a natural one, I know, so here's
the time for some of you to be real inventive!
Basically, I am using fastforward in conjunction with supervise, tcpserver,
multilog, (qmail, in case there r some drongo's out there), the whole
shabang. I want some users in the aliases file to be limited in the size of
an e-mail that I send to them (I act virtually as an incoming relay for
these users... Mail hits me from the Internet and I 'bounce' it to the
appropriate user somewhere else on the net). I only have limited outgoing
bandwidth (but virtually unlimited coming in), so I would much rather reject
e-mails than send them to the user or bounce the entire e-mail back to the
originator.
I know the databytes file can limit ALL e-mail, but I want to limit it for
particular aliases (the $LOCAL part of the recipient). Remember that e-mails
handled by fastforward are actually delivered to the alias user first, and
piped in .qmail-default, so there may be some way of setting databytes on
the fly, depending on the user that it appears to be delivered to and the
'rule' set up for that user's e-mail limit. I don't know the best way of
implementing this, or even in what stage of the delivery databytes is read,
so any ideas from any of you smart people out there?
Thanks
