Hi - I seem to remember this happened with an earlier version of qmailadmin (0.35?) when the postmaster created an autoresponder without a name and then deleted it. When the autoresponder was deleted, the domain disappeared. I thought it had been fixed. Since you're not using 0.35 you could look at http://www.mail-archive.com/qmailadmin@inter7.com/msg01396.html as this has something about domains being deleted as well (but in later versions I think).

Re: Web-based server-side mail clients
Steven, You might want to checkout IMP as well (http://horde.org/imp). It's a bit older, and perhaps more stable than SquirrelMail. But SquirrelMail is much easier to setup, and has lots of neat plugins. SM also has search functionality, which IMP does not (but will in the 2.3 release). Use CourierIMAP: http://inter7.com/courierimap. It works very well. If you are using a webmail program to access it, you'll need to bump up the max connections per IP, as the default is 4. I ran into this limit really quickly, obviously. Hope this helps. Bill Shupp on 6/13/01 9:43 AM, Steven Katz at [EMAIL PROTECTED] spake: Thanks, Kieran.

Thanks, Bill. I'm already using qmail-pop3d -- can CourierIMAP be installed without the included POP3 server? Or, is there some advantage to using the included POP3 server?

RE: Web-based server-side mail clients
Ignore the pop3 server provided with courier imap. It just confuses things! It will install it, but just dont change your tcpserver startup file (or inetd if your that way inclined) I found IMP very over complex. According to the site SM doesn't support virtual domains too well, but I fiddled around with the development release (1.1.2) and got them working perfectly. It took a bit of messing with the user's prefs files to get it working perfect. I am currently working on a script that sets up SM ready for the user to log in and send mail straight away. Like Bill said, it has some excellent plugins that make it very powerful. On a side note, don't be swayed by apperences. sqwebmail looks ugly out of the box, but its all template driven, so you can completely change the way it looks with a bit of HTML hacking. But, agreed, SM looks much nicer out of the box. -- Regards, Kieran Barnes Signum 1226 Ltd Visit our website at http://www.1226.net Phone: 01772 622889 || Fax: 01772 622558 -Original Message- From: Steven Katz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 13 June 2001 16:06 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Web-based server-side mail clients Thanks, Bill.

Re: Web-based server-side mail clients
I would say SquirrelMail. While SqWebMail is template driven, a decent amount of the HTML is embedded in the C source code. Once you've compiled it, you can't change it until you edit the source code and recompile. It can be done, but I think SquirrelMail is easier to customize. -Bill Shupp on 6/13/01 12:43 PM, Qmail at [EMAIL PROTECTED] spake: Which client is easier to customize the look and feel of?

Re: Web-based server-side mail clients
I never had to fiddle with it. Just setup courierimap, and the users will log in with their email address. It's as simple as that. Not all my hosting customers get webmail. To prevent the ones that don't from logging in, I force them to login through their website, and append the HTTP_HOST to their username when logging in so that only virtual hosts with the Aliased directory for SquirrelMail (in httpd.conf) can log in. But that's just how I do it. If you want all your domains to have webmail access, it's a snap. SM has a menu driven perl tool for configuring it. It's self-explanatory. Courier is more involved. You need to sit down and read the docs thoroughly to save yourself time. That's it. Just dig in.

pop authentication solved
i recently posted because i was having trouble getting vpop to authenticate and couldn't for the life of me figure where my problem was. fresh installations of the latest software following instructions and reading all the literature i could find didn't seem to help. in the end it turned out to be the user i was starting pop3 with. /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -u 51 -g 50 0 smtp /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -u 51 -g 55 0 pop3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup host.domain.com /var/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail /bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir vpopmail.vchkpw user.group = -u 60 -g 60 i had been starting pop3 using a member in the qmail user pool and didn't realize that vpopmail user is the only one who has access to the password files. all the times i recompiled and re-read could have been averted had i just checked my startup closely. i have heard some debate here and there on this mailing list about whether simple questions should be outright answered or hints/nudges should be given...and i don't know if people just ignored my earlier posting...but i am glad because i learned a lot during this whole ordeal. thanx.
vpopmail config question
Hi all, Quick one. I have a client who has 4 different email accounts for 4 different employees. He has requested that if someone sends email to any of the 4 he would like to be copied as well. So if someone sends an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] , it goes to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] as well. How can I accomplish this.
