Hi Info, Three notes first: - Writing in German to this list ain't a really good idea. Germans will be the minority here, so english is the preferred language. - Sending your answer to the list is enough, I'm reading the list and don't need a copy in my PM mailbox. - Setting Reply-To in your mails to anything different than this lists address is a bad idea, unless your mail is going to be OT and you want answers _only_ via PM. While you expect answers helping with your vpopmail problem you should set Reply-To to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or leave it empty.

[vchkpw] Qmail + Vpopmail + patches
Hello, all Probably an already discussed topic.. I need qmail to reject mails whose 'mail from:' contains an invalid domain AND reject mail if the recipient is not known locally (not in the vpopmail mysql database) and not an alias, etc. Both patches work fine for me, but only separately. Tried varios ways of applying both, tried patching manually, but I get various errors and cannot compile qmail-smtpd. (or it compiles but does not do what I want it to do.) Does anyone have a working solution for these 2 features? Or is there a cumulative patch? I tried using http://www.interazioni.it/qmail/qmail-smtpd-chkusr-1.0.patch and http://www.qmail.org/qmail-1.03-mfcheck.3.patch Thanks, Anton G. Popov Bitex.com

[vchkpw] Using vchkwp on a seperate box for smtp auth
I am wanting to setup a seperate smtp auth server and use vchkpw to query a vpopmail DB for user id and password. I then use the qmail smtproutes command to foward that mail to a virus scanning gateway and then to the final destination (the vpopmail users mailbox or external MTA). My question is do I need to set anything different on the vpopmail install other than pointing to the server running MySQL and the vpopmail db? If not will this allow the users to just use the smtp auth settings with thier email address and password? -- Ron Culler

One step ahead of you on that one. I deleted the Postfix user before installing Vpopmail because it would not allow me those userID's .

If _you_ don't know where qmail log entries are directed to it will be hard for anybody on this list to help. as I have looked at a few of them but don't see anything about not finding the user etc in the logfiles that I looked at. Haven't you found _any_, or haven't you found error messages? If it's the latter: have you found messages of _success_ for this particular mails you're trying to send? Has your qmail worked ever (w/o vpopmail)? Does it still work if you send mails to a local, non-vpopmail handled, domain?

Re: [vchkpw] changing defaults for vqadmin
H This is very weird. I have vpopmail compiled with a default quota already, but when I add someone in vqadmin, vuserinfo still displays NO QUOTA for that account's information.

Re: [vchkpw] Address book with/without LDAP
LDAP, in basic terms, is a protocol and method of storing stuff. All sorts of stuff. The LDAP that vpopmail would be talking about would be the usernames, passwords, home directories, etc of the various email accounts on your system. Just like you would store it on a mysql or cdb database. You can also store address books in LDAP, but that's a different program. vpopmail just does email delivery.

Re: [vchkpw] Address book with/without LDAP
Once LDAP authentication is setup, you'll know what 'fields' are being used. Ie. LDAP fullename = users Real Name. LDAP cn=email address or login name. Then configure your Addressbook of choice to read those fields. My personal experience is with LDAP on NDS, so I've had to grant rights to those properties within NDS for an LDAP guest login to view those properties, but I don't know if that applies to OpenLDAP. Just get the box setup to auth to LDAP, that should take more work than merely reading cn,fullname from the directory.
