[qmailtoaster] Submission on the toaster
I read something in this list about enabling submission port (as stated in RFC 2476) in the toaster. There's something about this in the toaster? ( or maybe i just dreamed of it ;-) BTW, the message submission port is forced to be authenticated and with TLS ? (or it can be accomplished). Moreover, is chkuser used for this port? (this won't let users send more than N mails in a single submission, and wrong rcpt tarpitting, that's unwanted, since this kind of user can use very big CC, and they must know what they are doing). Submission port will be great for RBL and accounting, too.

If you go to my site, I have an original script someone sent to me to
learn from the spam messages in the Spam box. I have a modified one if
you need it.
As far as deleting the messages, do something like this (this is for
roughly 3 days):
#!/bin/sh
find /home/vpopmail/domains/v2gnu.com/jake/Maildir/cur/* -mtime +3 -exec
rm -rf {} \;
find /home/vpopmail/domains/v2gnu.com/jake/Maildir/new/* -mtime +3 -exec

How about something like this:

# moving to spam-clean file
# note: mtime is for how many days to leave the messages on the server

sh /var/qmail/spam-clean
That's a quickly modified script that George had sent me a while back.

Re: [qmailtoaster] Can't complete install
The /root/qtp-* scripts didn't make it into the sandbox, so you need to either rebuild the sandbox or simply copy them into the sandbox you have: # mkdir /opt/qtp-sandbox/root # cp /root/qtp-* /opt/qtp-sandbox/root/. If you copy them in yourself, you shouldn't need the fixed qtp-whatami script, but it won't hurt. ;) Francisco Paco Peralta wrote: Shubes, Do I have to rebuild the sandbox again? */Eric \Shubes\ [EMAIL PROTECTED]/* wrote: Sorry, EE, but that's not right. You *should* run this script while qmail's still running. The script takes care of stopping and starting qmail at the appropriate time. Paco, This is a bug in the qtp-whatami script.

Re: [qmailtoaster] Qmailtoaster failover server procedure
Short answer: I don't know. I've only learned (and am still learning) the wiki stuff by playing with it. I imagine that you could add the outline for TT to the main page with '==' tags, and it'd get sucked into the TOC. I don't like that idea though because we'd end up with the same thing in 2 places. I abhor redundancy (high maintenance). There might be a 'slick' way to do it, I just don't know of one. Now that I think of it, how about making each Tip/Trick it's own wiki page. That way they can be linked to individually from from the main page, and be included in the TOC. I think that'd be good. Would you like to do it? Craig Smith wrote: Sorry Eric I forgot to ask, is there any way to include the TOC for tips and tricks on the main list. Sort of as a submenu. I'm sure that if people were looking for something, and saw it on the main page, or at least saw what they could expect to find under a main topic they would more likely find it. It will make it easier to browse and quicker to find what you are looking for. Just a thought.

Re: [qmailtoaster] how to set nice level?
Simone Marzona wrote: Hi all how is possible to set nice level on spamassassin on mandriva? On Debian systems it's configured in /etc/default/spamassassin nice-level. I could simply put a nice x value before spamd.. in /var/qmail/supervise/spamd/run? That sounds like it's worth a try, but I kinda doubt that it'd be effective. spamd spawns the processes that actually do the spam checking (spamd child), so those are the processes you'd really need to 'nice'. I don't know if the children pick up the nice level of the parent or not, or how their nice level is determined. or there is a predefined place? Not that I'm aware of in the toaster. You might ask the spamassassin list how this is done. thanks Welcome. Having said that, let me guess what your problem might be (since you've asked about a solution w/out stating your problem). spamd on your toaster occasionally sucks up the cpu, the number of smtp sessions grows, some sessions might time out resulting in duplicate emails. What's might be going on here is that autoexpire is configured on, and when it kicks in things go kinda haywire, because the expiration process can take a bit of time and a lot of cpu. A solution in this case is to turn off autoexpire, and create a cron job (sa-learn --force-expire) which runs periodically (daily is probably good). This will also force the bayes database log to sync. EE, do you suppose we can change the basic spamassassin-toaster package to use this configuration? I think it'd be a good idea, as this will remove the expiration process from active smtp sessions, as well as forcing the bayes log to sync, which TTBOMK isn't being done by anything in the basic toaster. -- -Eric 'shubes' - QmailToaster hosted by: VR Hosted http://www.vr.org - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Using the blacklists file would block the message at the smtp session, before it's even transmitted. I think that would save you some bandwidth and processing.

I would try sticking just the servers that you know are good in there first, then add the others one at a time. Very few BL's will be ping-able, or resolve. They're essentially DNS servers. Your machine makes a query to them (using this email as an example) asking who qmailtoaster.com is. If the BL server returns 127.0.0.1 (this result can change from BL to BL) then your machine knows it's good. If it returns 127.0.0.2 then it knows it's bad and can bounce it.

Since running that, you shouldn't be suffering from auto-expire again for at least 12 hours (see EXPIRATION section of man sa-learn). I'd still be inclined to turn it off though and do it with a daily cron job. You might also be experiencing RBL delays via SA if you have SURBLs enabled. To check that, you might turn local-only rules back on (-L option, see wiki SURBL). Are you seeing a heavy cpu use by SA?

[qmailtoaster] Problems with PDF and XLS
Hi, my users are complaining of not being able to receive some PDF's or XLS files.I have tried removing the MIME from badmime types and rebuilding the database, however this and even hashing out all the different MIME types still does not allow the files to come through.The strange thing is this only happens occasionally, and is pretty random.Am I missing something?Can anyone suggest anywhere else this may be occuring?Id really like to restore the MIME database back to its original form, to block zips and so forth.Thanks Send instant messages to your online friends http://au.messenger.yahoo.com
RE: [qmailtoaster] Problems with PDF and XLS
badmimetypes is just for qmail. What is likely filtering your XLS/PDF files is clamav itself. I myself would be curious to know if it's possible to get clamav, however, to make an acception for attachments with a .PDF extention? Those should always be innoculous.

[qmailtoaster] Roaming users isn't working.
Hi y'all How can I troubleshoot why roaming users isn't working for me? I've compiled vpopmail with --enable-roaming-users, and recompiled everything else after installing. But I still get a 553 sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts (#5.5.3 - chkuser). I'm not quite sure the mechanisms that allow this to work. vchkpw intercepts a pop/imap connection and appends the remote IP to a cdb file used by chkuser? Thanks for any direction pointing.

How about something like this:

That's a quickly modified script that George had sent me a while back.

Ho,
I ran the install with mine and let it run. When I woke up this morning
the spam box was in my webmail with messages in it. It will
automatically Create it.

RE: [qmailtoaster] Dspam on the toaster
Hey Lee, With your setup, does it allow pop3 clients to download less spam?
