From the qmailtap INSTALL file:

To compile it you will at least need to change the error.h file
to include errno.h just after the ifdefs at the top of the file.
#include error.h
doesn't make sense. shouldn't the include line be
#include errno.h
?
you need angle brackets (i.e. less than and greater than signs)
around the filename errno.h.
an easier way to describe it is... find this line:
extern int errno;
and replace it with these lines:
/* extern int errno; */
#include errno.h
and actually the first line, the one starting with /* and ending with
*/, is not really necessary. in C, /* starts a comment, and */ ends a
comment... so if you were to remove the entire line instead of
commenting it out, it ends up having the same effect.
this sed one-liner will do the job for any of djb's packages:
sed -i -e '/extern int errno/{s/^/\/* /;s/$/ *\//;G;s/$/#include
errno.h/;}' error.h
and the fix is only necessary for systems using glibc-2.3 or newer...
if you're using an older glibc, or not using glibc at all, you don't
need to do it.

Re: [vchkpw] email wildcards?

On my other server with qmail i would just create a .qmail-$email- default file and point it to the local directory. Example: I set up [EMAIL PROTECTED] now I want a wildcard for all [EMAIL PROTECTED] to [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s local mailbox. I would create .qmail-foo-default which contains | true ./foo/Maildir/ this procedure should work. and you don't need the | true line in each file, that's just wasting CPU cycles. you may need to check the ownership and permissions of the .qmail-* files you're creating. they should be owned by the vpopmail user, set to the vchkpw group, and have permissions 0600. if the vpopmail user can't read them, qmail-local (which will be running as the vpopmail user) won't be able to follow the directions they contain. http://qmail.jms1.net/scripts/ has a script called vfixpermissions (currently the last item on the page) which will recursively fix the permissions for all of your vpopmail domains. -- | John M.

Re: [vchkpw] a vpopbull question

When i look the file cuentas.txt, in fact, vpopbull skip to list accounts in a alias domain. the question is: how can get the missing alias mails? short answer: you can't. it's written so that your users will see one copy of the message when they log into their mailbox. it adds each PHYSICAL mailbox addresses once- if you were to force it to include these alias domains, users in the alias domains would possibly receive multiple copies. I really need all accounts beause i need then for use in a recipients features for spamcontrol pathc vpopbull is the wrong tool for the job. this is the equivalent of using a chisel to loosen a screw- it can eventually be forced to work, but it's a lot of unnecessary effort. vpopbull is designed to fake message deliveries into vpopmail mailboxes, not to build a list of valid email addresses. you may want to look at my mkvalidrcptto script- it scans the system and vpopmail directories and generates a list of valid email addresses, with @domain for domains which accept all email addresses. it was designed to build a file for use with my validrcptto.cdb patch, although its output is just a plain-text list of email addresses (and @domain lines) and can be used for any number of other things, whether you're using my patches or not. http://qmail.jms1.net/patches/validrcptto.cdb.shtml -- | John M.

RE: [vchkpw] a vpopbull question
Mr. Simpson: thank you for your advice. you may want to look at my mkvalidrcptto script- I'm interested on your script mkvalidrcptto but it has not a help. what is the syntax? it scans the system and vpopmail directories and generates a list of valid email addresses, with @domain for domains which accept all email addresses. I don't know if I wrong but I understand that if I have this: main domain: hn2.com alias of hn2.com: simon.intertel.hn So, if i have this email ie: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (of course it has an alias [EMAIL PROTECTED]) When I run ./mkvalidrcptto.pl [syntax ] I'll got the following list?: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks in advence Mario
