[vchkpw] pop-before-smtp issues

2004-10-15 Thread Kent Ritchie
I have a qmail/vpopmail setup using pop-before-smtp, and the roaming is
working fine for 99.9% of the users, but a very few are having problems
with it. The normal forced send / recieve does not update thier IP's in
the relay table, nor does deleting and recreating the accounts. I am
almost positive this is a user issue, but I wanted to check the list
before I lay the smack-down on some users. At first I thought it was my
rbl blocking the IP's, but I have disabled it for the moment.



[vchkpw] Guidence needed for a vpopmail migration issue.

2003-01-15 Thread Kent Ritchie
I am having some issues with a qmail+vpopmail setup that I moving to
another server. Most of the accounts are working fine, however some of
them give this error when an email is sent to them:

Auto re-creation of maildir failed.  vpopmail (#5.9.9)

So I was hoping someone here could point me to howto, man page, irc
channel or something to help me figure this out. The server that the
data was migrated too works just fine on its own, and most of the
accounts work just fine, but the accounts that give the above error also
do not allow any logins at all. I have tried changing passwords and such
but this has not helped.

 If the user's Maildir doesn't exist, vpopmail will try to auto-create it.
 Check the permissions on it, and make sure the path to it matches what
 vpopmail has in it's database (run a vuserinfo [EMAIL PROTECTED] and make sure
 the paths match).

The paths all match, and so do the permissions. I have found that remove
and re-adding the affected accounts will fix the issue. However it is
NOT an elegant solution, and not one I would like to try when I have no
real idea how many email accounts are effected by this.

[vchkpw] Auto re-creation of maildir failed. vpopmail (#5.9.9)

2003-01-14 Thread Kent Ritchie
I'm building a new mail server to replace the existing one.
I built the qmail+vpopmail+mysql+qmailadmin+sqwebmail setup, and it is
all working.

When I try and migrate the data over from the old server to the new,
most accounts come over fine. However for some I get the following
error:

Auto re-creation of maildir failed.  vpopmail (#5.9.9)

Google searching the error has not been fruitful I'm afraid, I was
hoping someone here could enlighten me before I go stark raving mad as
this error has put me far far behind my schedule...

[vchkpw] vpopmail+mysql + changing mysql servers

2002-12-16 Thread Kent Ritchie
I might be stupid to ask this, but I have looked online and in
documentation, so I decided to ask here.

I have a qmail+vpopmail setup, that authenticates through a remote mysql
server. When I take the mysql server down and replace it with a
different box, thats has all the data, users, grants etc on it that the
previous box had, it no longer authenticates. I replace the old box, and
it once again works... So, has anyone here ever made replacement like I
am trying and failing to do?
