RE: [vchkpw] Spam Protection with vpopmail and qmail

2003-06-26 Thread Jeff Garvas
Gonzo, I highly suggest installing qmail-scanner and reading the howto for using spam assassin with it. It works perfect. You scan mail prior to the queue stage, and if you configure it right, everything is hidden in the headers. I scan it this way for over 5000 people and most of them don't e

[vchkpw] OT: list question

2003-06-06 Thread Jeff Garvas
Does anyone know why the SMTP server for this list doesn't reverse resolve? I'm thinking of turning on mandatory reverse resolve to cut down on the volume of junk hosts connecting from 80.0.0.0/8 and I noticed that doing so would stop delivery from this mailing list. Does anyone know if reverse

RE: [vchkpw] Working towards vpopmail 5.4 stable

2003-06-04 Thread Jeff Garvas
Ben, Just read the vpopmail directions on --enable-roaming-users=y as a ./configure option. It tells you what you need to do. You can use mysql or a flat file to store the files, it doesn't matter. As for the POP-before-imap I can't tell you off the top of my head. I have not tackled it yet.

[vchkpw] tcprules can't write to /etc/tcp.smtptmp.xxxxxx

2003-06-04 Thread Jeff Garvas
I've patched ucspi-tcp-0.88 with the mysql patch and I keep running into a strange error. When I telnet to port 110 and try to manually login with a valid user/pass i get this: tcprules: fatal: unable to create /etc/tcp.smtptmp.23892 (or some other pid) Clearly it's trying to dump the database
