[vchkpw] Forwarding spec. users w/o local domain
Hi, Our system: netqmail-1.05 on RHEL4. I have a 'gateway' qmail system. It delivers nothing locally, and just does some filtering and logging before passing all messages through. locals contains only LOCALHOST, and there are no virtual domains. smtproutes contains the line macalester.edu:141.140.1.31:26, and rcpthosts contains macalester.edu. I'd like to do something I would think is very simple and possible, but I am stuck. I would like to setup some user forwards on this system. For example, if a message comes in for [EMAIL PROTECTED] I would like to be able to set a forward for that address to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or wherever. I would like to have a file with entries like: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:[EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ...and so on... Of course I don't care about the syntax, but you get the idea. All other addresses would just follow the rule in smtproutes. Here's the line of thinking I've been following and the conclusions I've come to. 1. Since no mail is delivered locally, creating local user qmail accounts with .qmail files has no effect. 2. The moresmtproutes patch is not applicable here because it is for forwarding a given address to a specific destination host, not a specific destination address. 3. Since no mail is delivered locally, the ~alias/.qmail-default file isn't processed either. I had tried populating that file wth the line | /var/qmail/bin/fastforward -d /etc/aliases.cdb, created an aliases file, installed fastforward, etc., but it just doesn't get used. A user on the qmail mailing list suggested using qmailtap. I think it would almost do what I need, so I thought it was worth posting the question to this list too. qmailtap sends a copy to a specific address, however it would still allow qmail to attempt delivery of the original message, which would result in a failure notice for the sender. The end result would be that the user would receive a forwarded copy of the message, but the sender would think it didn't work. Does anyone have any ideas on how to accomplish this goal, using qmailtap or something else? Thanks in advance, Ted

If the server that accepts mail for macalester.edu can be convinced to accept mail for somehost.macalester.edu, you can use vpopmail and qmailadmin to accomplish your goals. Make sure [EMAIL PROTECTED] is working correctly before modifying your gateway system. Stop qmail-smtpd and qmail-send before doing any of this, to make sure you get it set up right. You're going to add macalester.edu as a vpopmail domain on your gateway system. Change the catchall to [EMAIL PROTECTED]. If you're using qmailadmin, you can just enter @somehost.macalester.edu as the catchall email address, and it will automatically set it up. Here's the feature request on that undocumented feature: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php? func=detailaid=910410group_id=6691atid=356691 Remove the entry from smtproutes. At this point, you might be able to start qmail-send (leaving qmail-smtpd off) and use qmail-inject to inject a test message. Watch the logs to make sure it gets through. If so, you can start qmail-smtpd back up. Now, add aliases for the addresses you want forwarded elsewhere. Use QmailAdmin, or just create a .qmail-user45 file in the domain directory. If an alias exists, the email will be forwarded. If it doesn't exist, it will go to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You'll probably also want to modify the postmaster user to have its mail get forwarded to [EMAIL PROTECTED] If you really want to be safe, you could add the domain as test.com first, make sure everything works (using qmail-inject, or manually telnetting to port 25 on localhost) before doing it with the real domain. -- Tom Collins - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Vpopmail - virtual domains for qmail: http://vpopmail.sf.net/ QmailAdmin - web interface for Vpopmail: http://qmailadmin.sf.net/
[vchkpw] forwarding to local users
Hi, I need to forward a vpopmail user to a local users shell mail right now i have the domains .qmail-default set to : | /home/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' [EMAIL PROTECTED] this works but it rewrites all the headers to not have the original domain. I need something that will keep all the original virtual domain addresses in tact. It works if I chown the users Maildir to vpopmail.vchkpw but that really won't work for my purposes. Even worse :) the mail is going to a Mailbox and not a Maildir. Any ideas?

[vchkpw] Forwarding problem by using maildrop
Hello List,
I'm using qmail 1.03, vpopmail 5.2.1, SpammAssassin-2.53 with Maildrop.
Some of the mail-accounts have a forward file in their directory:
/vopmail-home/domains/problem.com/user/.qmail
If I send an email to an user who have this .qmail forward file, the
mail will not be forwarded. This happens when the spam filter is activated:
# cat .qmail-default
| /usr/local/bin/maildrop mailfilter
The qmail log file says that everything is ok and that the email is
delivered local - but she isn't.
Where goes the mail???
Thanks in advice!
Andrej.

[vchkpw] Forwarding....
Ok so after wading through documentation that didn;t document so very damn well, and the snide remarks from a few people on this list and suffering through the whole It was hard to write so it should be hard to use attitude this works for forwarding. The following assumes a standard Qmail install on Linux, a standard install of Vpopmail. Standard install will create: /home/vpopmail/domains Within the domains directory a sub-driectory for each domain you put onto the system is created it: New Domain = MyNewDomain.Com So you will have the following directory structure: /home/vpopmail/domains/MyNewDomain.com for the obligitory postmaster you will have: /home/vpopmail/domains/MyNewDomain.com/postmaster within the above you will have /home/vpopmail/domains/MyNewDomain.com/postmaster/MailDir within Maildir you will have three directories: new, cur tmp *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*= THE DEFAULT FORWARD *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* Create a user for the domain MyNewDomain.com, ie: 'info' and you will have: /home/vpopmail/domains/MyNewDomain.com/info/MailDir within Maildir you will have three directories: new, cur tmp within the directory: /home/vpopmail/domains/MyNewDomain.com execute the ls -all command and you will see the file '.qmail-default'. This file handles all e-mail comming to this domain that has no valid destination. The contents of this file are: | /home/vpopmain/bin/vdelivermail '' bounce To make all e-mail without a valid destination in MyNewDomain.com go to a specific user, replace the word 'bounce' with the fully qualified address of the person you want it to go to. This can be ANYONE! Inside or outside your domain. So suppose you want all e-mail with no valid destination at MyNewDomain.com to go to your mailbox on hotmail.com change the line to look like this: | /home/vpopmain/bin/vdelivermail '' [EMAIL PROTECTED] This is the Catch All! *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*= THE INDIVIDUAL FORWARD *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*= To forward for a specific user create a file in the DOMAIN directory: /home/vpopmail/domains/MyNewDomain.com name it .qmail-[user name of the person in this domain for which you would like to do forwarding] So in the above example, I have a domain called 'MyNewDomain.com' and a user named 'info'. If I want to forward ALL e-mail for the user 'info' to my hotmail address I would use a text editor such as pico since its very simple to use and execute the following command: pico /home/vpopmail/domains/MyNewDomain.com/.qmail-info Then add the following to the file: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Save the file and I have just created the forwarding rule for the individual user. = end

[vchkpw] forwarding a while domain regardless of users
I have a client asking me to act as a sort of bypass for their mail. I have spam and virus checking installed using spamassassin and trophie, and need to forward all users that come in addressed to a certain domain to another. They add and delete up to 20 users a day, but they don't want to have to add and delete them on their server *and* on my server. i.e., I receive a mail for [EMAIL PROTECTED], and I need to forward it to [EMAIL PROTECTED], but I can't have vpopmail look to see if [EMAIL PROTECTED] exists on my server - it just needs to know that this.com exists, and all users are valid for that domain. The client will handle that on their mailserver when I forward them the mail. Is there a way to do this with vpopmail? I'm using qmail with maildrop, BTW. Rob Short
