[vchkpw] Re: SMTP after POP
[EMAIL PROTECTED] said the following on 02/14/2006 09:30 PM: I have installed vpopmail -5.4.2. I am having a problem with smtp. The open-smtp file does not exist. I have tried re-installing it is still not created. When I create it manually smtp after pop still does not work. SHould I also create open-smtp.lock. Any advice would be appreciated. My advice would be to use SMTP AUTH :) R.

That's exactly 'roaming users' feature of vpopmail.
Ask your provider if the pre-installed vpopmail was compiled enabling
this feature, if not: rebuild vpopmail (recompile, maybe repack for
not disturbing the package management).
Read vpopmail documentation about 'roamong users', 'clearopensmtp' and
daemontools' documentation about the meaning of '-x' parameter for
'tcpserver'. See most of the stuff is already set up, as I've seen in
your 'run'-script ('-x' is present and just needs to point to the
correct file, which can be achieved with the help of a symlink).

Yes. Just so everyone is aware, it won't work with the latest versions of Courier-IMAP. You will need to find a 3.x series Courier-IMAP if you want to use that feature. SMTP-Auth is more flexible and works better, IMHO. It usually comes with LDAP baggage in the patch, though... if you don't need that functionality, you could perhaps hack it back out (I haven't tried). It also has traditionally conflicted with the chkuser patch, which I need for my Barracuda spam firewalls.

Hi List, On my personal experience i use the combination of stock qmail + spamcontrol + vpopmail + eMail Messaging Policy Framework (eMPF) comes with inter7.com. spamcontrol can be found at http://www.fehcom.de/qmail/spamcontrol.html for me it has everything you need and i think the author himself is here on the list :) Best Regards --Ron - Original Message - From: Steve Cole [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: vchkpw@inter7.com Sent: Wednesday, July 06, 2005 4:56 AM Subject: Re: [vchkpw] Re: smtp after pop On Tuesday 05 July 2005 16:50, Peter Palmreuther wrote: Hello List, On Tuesday, July 5, 2005 at 7:24:19 PM patrick wrote: by the way: does anyone know a good howto to use smtp after pop with vpopmail? regards That's exactly 'roaming users' feature of vpopmail.
