Re: [vchkpw] dumb question! (QmailAdmin 1.2.x does require vpopmail 5.4.x)

QmailAdmin 1.2.1 supports managing MySQL-based valiases.  QmailAdmin 
1.0.25 and later includes contrib/alias2forward.pl, a utility for 
converting Maildir delivery in .qmail-alias files to email delivery.  
Vpopmail 5.4.1 includes dotqmail2valias for converting .qmail-alias 
files to MySQL valias table entries.

so what happens to those 'embedded' aliases once i upgrade? 
automatically converted to properly functioning forwards? i suspect 
not.that's what makes it kind of a tough migration.
They will continue to work (or not work) as they do now.  Upgrading 
won't make the situation any worse than it already is.  The latest 
QmailAdmin understands the Maildir-style aliases fine -- it just 
doesn't create them.

what's 'the way courier-imap does' ?

Do you really mean, are there any other imap servers that work with 
vpopmail?

If so, the answer is yes.  www.bincimap.org

BincImap works, but it doesn't support quota's like courier-imap does.

You bet! See www.bincimap.org.

And read http://www.differentpla.net/node/view/165. You can take some 
hints from here.

I meant the way it authenticates, you know, the vchkpw module. Sorry for
not saying exactlly what I meant.

[vchkpw] Re: Domain with home!= ~vpopmail/domains

Hello jasmine,

 I got strange problem. I don;t know when (what version) but suddenly a

 Is this a bug in vchkpw?
 Probably not. What user is qmail-popup run as? Probably not a user
 (UID) that is allowed to chdir() to 'klub.olga.pl' domain directory or
 read vchkpw.cdb in there?

 What user should qmail-popup run as? mine runs as root.

From PoV authentication this should be OK.

 And my problem is that my vuser isnt being authenticated at all!

What do the logs say? [tm]

P.S.: Please respond to the list, I've set 'Reply-To' and
'Mail-FollowUp-To' accordingly.

[vchkpw] qmail address extensions

2004-04-16 Thread Jeremy Kister
I recently had the need for qmail address extension support in vpopmail.
Since i was running an oldish release of vpopmail (5.3.28) I upgraded to
5.4.3.

I configured using:
./configure \
--enable-many-domains=y \
--enable-logging=v \
--enable-clear-passwd=n \
--enable-roaming-users=n \
--enable-rebuild-tcpserver-file=n \
--enable-qmail-ext

I then started playing with sending emails to address extensions.  when I
had a plain-vanilla mailbox, it worked perfectly, However, when i had a
forward/alias (or a .qmail-user for that mailbox), it did not work.

This is important, because I am using a TMDA like system.  I do:
~vpopmail/bin/vadduser [EMAIL PROTECTED] pass
echo '|/usr/local/bin/program [EMAIL PROTECTED]' 
~vpopmail/domains/example.com/.qmail-user

I'm not sure if this is a bug, or just not currently a feature, but can
someone implement this?

[vchkpw] limiting user pop frequency

2004-04-16 Thread Jeff Koch
Our mailserver is getting close to 10,000 pops per hour during the business 
day. We notice that some users have their email programs set to check for 
new mail almost every minute. We tell them not to check any more frequently 
than every ten minutes. Is there some way on the server end to limit the 
ability of a user to pop in so frequently?



Best Regards,

Jeff Koch
