Re: [vchkpw] Re: smtp after pop
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: 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. > > Yes.

Forgot to mention. > SMTP-Auth is more flexible and works better, IMHO. Never would argue about this ;-) POP-b4-SMTP is a work around I'd never recommend, unless SMTP-AUTH ain't possible for whatever reasons :-) -- Best regards Peter Palmreuther THE GOLDEN RULE: He who has the gold makes the rules

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. Hope this helps. -- Cheers, Steve |President & Systems Administrator, Kingston Online Services |(e pluribus unix) Multiple-T3/OC3 URL: http://www.kos.net/ |Business and Education partners in SouthEastern Ontario | |"Through the firewall, out the router, down the OC3, across the |backbone, bounced from satellite, it's nothing but net."

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). -- Best regards Peter Palmreuther Blessed are the censors, for they shall inhibit the earth.
