[vchkpw] Vpopmail/QMail relay local mail to another server mail ??
Currently, I had a Qmail Server in Fedora 4 and MDeaemon in Windows 2003. In MDaemon, I store all email acount in my network. Now I have some email acounts in QMail ( they're also same name with account in MDaemon). I have a problem like this: I use VPoppmail to create mydomain.com and add this name in file /control/local user1,user2 account in QMail. user3 account in MDaemon When [EMAIL PROTECTED] send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] User2 receives successful. But when user1 send to user3, QMail return error - Hi. This is the qmail-send program at mydomain.com http://mydomai.com/. I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses. This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out. Sorry, no mailbox here by that name. (#5.1.1) . I know Qmail would process mail in local so if doesnot find email account in vpopmail they would return error. I want Qmail continue send email (after QMail can not find account in it's loccal) to MDaemon so user3 can receives. I also configure file smptroute for QMail relay to MDaemon successful. Mail account in QMail can relay to MDaemon for internet mail. There is some files in dir /var/qmail/control file locals - smtp.mydomain.com (dns record of QMail) file rcpthosts - there no word, I use tcp.smtp control access file smtproutes has 2 lines. The first line I hope QMail would continue to send non-success local email (it means user3) to MDaemon but it can not. mydomain.com:mail.mydomain.com (mail. http://mail.henho.com/mydomain.comis dns record point to MDaemon) :mail. http://mail.henho.com/mydomain.com ( this line to relay another domain (not mydomain.com http://henho.com/) to MDaemon) file virtualdomains - mydomain.com http://henho.com/ file tcp.smtp 127.:allow,RELAYCLIENT= 172.16.:allow,RELAYCLIENT= When you read to these line, you know that I don't know how to config for VPopMail relay (or QMail) Thanks for reading and soon relpy

Help! How can I configure catch-all when I have Vpopmail+Qmail+PostgreSQL already working? I have /home/vpopmail/domains/mydomain.org/.qmail-default but catch-all still not working.

[vchkpw] VPopmail+Qmail+Quota
I am currently running a slightly older version of vpopmail (5.2.1). I have been attempting to update to 5.4.0 or 5.4.8, but regardless of what compile options I give I consistently get the following error on any mail deliveries to the domain and the message fails to go through. It is also funny that mail quota usage all shows up as 0% (this is in a production machine). There is an NFS mount involved, but I've tested this as well on the server with the NFS share, and that isn't changing anything. Everything else vpopmail works (pop, imap, etc...) Any ideas? @400041b98f4b27326e74 delivery 382616: failure: user_is_over_quota/ Thanks, -- Clint Ricker Systems and Network Administrator NorthEast Georgia Internet Access (706)546-5787

By the way, I still have the open question regarding a recommendation for a construct similar to the realrcptto patch, to operate with vpopmail and bounce all this crud BEFORE it crawls into the sytem.

[vchkpw] vpopmail/qmail doublebounce issue
First time poster Have mercy on the neophyte! Can anyone point me to the right documentation source for properly configuring vpopmail+qmail so that doublebounces don't hang in the queue? My son had been managing this system, but got too busy, so I have to come up to speed just as Comcast decided that all the SPAM bouncing back out of our system was SPAM originating from our system, and quit allowing us to relay through their server. Originally, to mollify the ISPs that refuse mail from floating IPs, we had smtproutes set thusly: :SMTP.Comcast.Net Fine, until they got tired of processing the SPAM bounces. So, I peeled smtproutes back to: AOL.Com:SMTP.Comcast.Net ...so that at least the AOL mail from us would get delivered. Our server hosts several very small domains: TS5.Com, TS4.Com, and Christy9.Com. The system ME is mail.ts5.com. I noticed after removing Comcast as the relay that the queue began filling with doublebounces, addressed to [EMAIL PROTECTED], and the log indicated tons of entries like this: @400041372d553b41077c new msg 3794941 @400041372d553b410b64 info msg 3794941: bytes 11149 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] qp 13481 uid 507 @400041372d5601445164 starting delivery 81338: msg 3794941 to remote [EMAIL PROTECTED] @400041372d5601446cbc status: local 0/10 remote 2/20 @400041372d560fc141ac delivery 81338: deferral: Sorry,_I_wasn't_able_to_establish_an_SMTP_connection._(#4.4.1)/ @400041372d560fc160ec status: local 0/10 remote 1/20 @400041372d580f829a9c starting delivery 81339: msg 3794751 to remote [EMAIL PROTECTED] @400041372d580f82b5f4 status: local 0/10 remote 2/20 @400041372d581900bfcc delivery 81339: deferral: Sorry,_I_wasn't_able_to_establish_an_SMTP_connection._(#4.4.1)/ @400041372d581900db24 status: local 0/10 remote 1/20 @ So, vpopmail knows that ts5.com is a local domain, but when the doublebounce is generated, it is treating [EMAIL PROTECTED] as a remote address. Am I reading that right? (below: I have redacted the name of the relay server we are using, not because it is in any way an open relay -- it isn't, we run it, too -- but because the customer wants to remain private) I temporarily worked around the problem by adding first the entry TS5.Com:SMTP.*.Net to smtproutes: no effect. Then I added mail.TS5.Com:SMTP.*.Net, and the queue began to empty, but sent all the doublebounces to the default account [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead of to postmaster. Obviously I don't understand all the flow here, but would sure appreciate it if someone could point me to (1) the right documentation to cover this, and (2) an appropriate patch to vpopmail+qmail to avoid such heavy SPAM issues, like a SMTP-time bounce that works with vpopmail, or other technique that works more effectively than receiving all the bad mail, then generating bounce messages for them. 'Cause I know sending doublebounces out to another qmail server, and back again, ain't the way it should be done!

I have the problem where once you login to imp (with IMAP) with more than 5 characters long user part of the email, then all the shorter usernames cannot login (until I restart the services) ie [EMAIL PROTECTED] can login and check mail fine. logout fine. then say the email [EMAIL PROTECTED] logs in and then [EMAIL PROTECTED] can no longer login. I thn restart the services and its all good until the longer email logs in again does anyone know if the problem stems from courier-imap, imp or vpopmail (vchkpw) or maybe even something else?? I am using; vpopmail 5.3.20 qmail 1.0.3 qmailadmin 1.0.24 courier-imap 1.7.3.20030606 and imp 3.2.1 POP auth is not a problem.

[vchkpw] vpopmail/qmail/IMAP (courier-IMAP)
Hello, I have a problem with my setup -- I use an webmail client to connect to an IMAP server (courier-IMAP) and that seems to work fine. However, when I do, and when I also change something on the IMAP server, my POP3 client downloads duplicates of every message in the mailbox. Anyone have any idea why this would happen? Thanks!

Its odd, but I have been looking at manuals and postings for a while, and I don't see anything like this happening anywhere. Simply put, the mail all gets put into the appropriate Maildir, but when I try to retrieve it using a windows based pop client it doens't work... any suggestions? When I look in the Maildir directory it says the following: [EMAIL PROTECTED] new]# pwd /home/vpopmail/domains/my domain/user/Maildir/new [EMAIL PROTECTED] new]# ls 1048896214.12998.localhost.localdomain,S=444 1048927906.8559.localhost.localdomain 1048928982.11823.localhost.localdomain,S=823 1048910262.25323.localhost.localdomain,S=789 1048928795.11304.localhost.localdomain,S=837 1048983833.30760.localhost.localdomain,S=2549 [EMAIL PROTECTED] new]# I'm wondering if there is a problem with it being confused between localhost.localdomain and my domain where the email should actually be going... very confusing... any help? Thanks! Jon

[vchkpw] Vpopmail/qmail/multiple servers
I have a mail server currently handling smtp/pop3 with storage across NFS and auth through mysql. (qmail 1.03, vpopmail 5.2) I working to add another server (qmail 1.03, vpopmail 5.3.16) as a load share for smtp/pop3. When I add the second server to the mix, using vuserinfo I can query the database and get back results for email boxes and virtual domains without a problem. When I try to add an email box to an existing domain that vuserinfo just told me was there, I get : Error: Domain does not exist For example : == [EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]# ./vadddomain testing3431.com password [EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]# ./vdominfo testing3431.com domain: testing3431.com uid:89 gid:89 dir:/usr/local/vpopmail/domains/0/testing3431.com users: 1 === [EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]# ./vuserinfo [EMAIL PROTECTED] name: postmaster passwd: $1$tEwdi$gxDfuY8/NerlUWDmfmlpS. clear passwd: password removed uid:0 gid:0 all services available dir: /usr/local/vpopmail/domains/0/testing3431.com/postmaster quota: 1000S,2000C usage: 0% account created: Mon Mar 17 17:06:53 2003 last auth: Never logged in [EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]# ls -la /usr/local/vpopmail/domains/0/testing3431.com/postmaster total 3 drwx-- 3 vpopmail vchkpw 512 Mar 17 17:07 . drwx-- 3 vpopmail vchkpw 512 Mar 17 17:07 .. drwx-- 5 vpopmail vchkpw 512 Mar 17 17:07 Maildir [EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]# ./vdominfo testing3431.com domain testing3431.com does not exist [EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]# ./vadduser [EMAIL PROTECTED] what Error: Domain does not exist [EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]# If I create the domain on the new server and do the query/email add from the current server, I also get the same errors. I'm guessing there is something I'm missing on letting the multiple servers share emailbox info or something between themselves.

Re: [vchkpw] vpopmail/qmail + non virtualdomain aliases/forwards
Hi Stratsimir, The only solution I am aware of is to make .qmail-abuse in every domain dir, but then the postmaster users will be able to delete those forwards using vpopmail frontend. Bloody workaround: After creating .qmail-abuse, do a chown root.root .qmail-abuse. People will be able to see that address, but they can't delete it. I've tried to put .qmail-abuse in /var/log/qmail/alias - it didn't worked for me. It doesn't work in general because ~alias is only consulted if no matching user is found. Jonas

[vchkpw] vpopmail/qmail migration
I have an existing vpopmail/qmail server hosting several domains. I've put together a new server on the same subnet to replace the old one. vpopmail is configured and functioning properly on the new server. My plan is to simply copy the /home/vpopmail/* directory to the new server, and move the IP address from new to old. My question is: Are there any important files withing /var/qmail or elsewhere that also need to be moved at the time of migration? Thank you. -- -- Zak L Brown, R.H.C.E.

Re: [vchkpw] vpopmail/qmail migration
make sure that the permission (uid and gid are the same on the new server. also the qmail control files need to be copied over also. and the db needs to match everything else. so to sum it all up.. qmail, /var/vpopmail and the db all need to match.

[vchkpw] vpopmail qmail
i have RH6.2 using INETD. i already installed Qmail. the domain is in the
/var/qmail/control/locals /var/qmail/rcpthosts but i'm having problem
configuring vpopmail-5.2.1 on the INSTALL file after instruction number 11,
12 thank you very much.
11. Information details hiding
Alot of the underlying qmail details are not covered in this
file. This is on purpose. If you want to find out the internal
workings of vchkpw and qmail look into /var/qmail/control files
and /var/qmail/users/assign file.
12. How to use vchkpw with qmail-pop3d server
Here is a sample startup line for qmail-pop3d and vchkpw
env - PATH=/var/qmail/bin:/usr/local/bin \
tcpserver -H -R 0 pop-3 \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup your.domain.com \
/home-dir-of-vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir
If you want to authenticate against /etc/passwd do not use the -u -g
options, since it would need to run as root.
Notice where the vchkpw program goes.
Some sites use pop3 instead of pop-3. /etc/services has the
master list. grep pop /etc/services to find out.
If you want to use inetd style startup use this:
pop3 stream tcp nowait root \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup \
qmail-popup mail.stilen.com \
/home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d \
Maildir
If you want to use xinetd style use this:
service pop3
{
disable = no
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = root
server= /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup
server_args= foo.bar.com /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir
log_type = FILE /var/log/xinetd.log
log_on_success = HOST
log_on_failure = HOST RECORD
}
13. For sites using the mysql module and --enable-roaming-users=y it
is highly suggested to use Matt Simersons tcpserver-mysql patch.
This removes the need for vpopmail to compile a tcp.smtp.cdb file
for each pop authentication. Instead, tcpserver looks directly
into the vpopmail mysql table of IP's.
14. Good luck

Do you need a guide how to copy/paste? 13. For sites using the mysql module and --enable-roaming-users=y it is highly suggested to use Matt Simersons tcpserver-mysql patch. Are you using mysql functionality in vpopmail? If yes: what's the concrete problem? If no: what's your interest in #13? 14. Good luck What's the problem with this? I mean ... you cited it, so you seem to have a problem with it?! To sum it up: you wrote you've trouble _configuring_ vpopmail. configuring like the initial './configure' before compiling or configuring like 'configure the rest of my system to get the mail delivery and pop3-fetch working'? If first problem is getting the mail stored in vpopmail mail directories: remove the domain(s) you want to be processed through vpopmail from '/var/qmail/control/locals'. Everything up there will be threaded as _local_ like 'local qmail system' by qmail. When setting up the domains using vpopmail command interface (vadddomain) it will be correctly inserted into 'virtualdomains' (and rcpthosts) where it belongs (beside that appropriate entries in '/var/qmail/users/' will be made). -- Pit

After all, qmail's mentality is chaining programs together to complete the task, so why don't we filter this way? So here is my spam-filter.pl script, been in production for quite some time with me, and I haven't had any problems. There is quite detailed usage file ( http://www.ledscripts.com/dev/install.txt ) plus reading the source itself will likely tell you a lot. Anyhow, you can get it at: http://www.ledscripts.com/dev/vpopmail-spam-filter.html Please try and comment. I really think its implementations like this that will finally help some of us clean up our mailboxes :) By the way, this is not something that should be used on a heavy-load machine. If interest is high enough, I'll do something similar to what the spamassassin people did with spamd/spamc. Anyway, good luck! Jon Coulter [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [vchkpw] Vpopmail/qmail spam filter using SpamAssassin (andother stuff)
Problem with qmail-scanner is that it does not allow the Spam preferences to be controlled on a per domain or per user basis.

[vchkpw] Vpopmail/qmail spam filter using SpamAssassin (and other stuff)
