[xmail] delivery confirmation

2004-09-30 Thread Roman Dusek
Hi all,

did anyone try to solve the problem how to confirm e-mail delivery?

The only way I have thought out is:
- send the e-mail to XMail server
- parse the smail log file for message ID to see if it has successfull 
delivery (RLYS) or delivery to secondary mailserver (SMTP)
- wait if error e-mail message doesn't appear for the case of delivery to 
secondary mail server (e.g. user doesn't exist on primary mailserver). But 
how to reliably parse this one?

Is there any other way?

Thanks,
Roman

[xmail] Re: XMail Manager LE Beta 1 Released

2004-08-09 Thread Roman Dusek
Dear Mike,

I have tested your XMail Manager, it looks great.

I have only found one bug - when opening mailing list user dialog box, if 
there is one mailing list member address twice in mlusers.tab, your app 
crashes with run-time error 457: This key is already associated with an 
element of this collection.

This is probably not important as this situation shouldn't occur, but you 
might want to fix it.

Cheers,
Roman

Hello Everyone,

I just wanted to let you know that I've finally released XMail Manager LE -
Beta 1.  For anyone who bothered to use XMail Server Manager that I wrote a
few years back, this is the fully functional final application that I
promised everyone who emailed me.  What started out as a minor update and
facelift turned into almost a full rewrite 3x the size of the original
application.

You can download it off of my website:  http://www.alouria.com/  I hope
everyone enjoys it!

[xmail] Re: Problems with POP3

2004-07-20 Thread Roman Dusek
Dear Noor,

I also had a problem like that. I have detected that it was caused by wrong 
format of the message file stored in XMail directory - it didn't end with 
end-of-line (CrLf). XMail isn't able to deal with this kind of corrupted 
file, it causes POP3 session to hang. Davide answered me it's impossible 
for message file to appear in XMail directory in corrupted format (if not 
modified externally). But it happened to me occasionally.

If you would detect this is your case, please report here.

Cheers,
Roman

Hello,

I run XMAIL 1.20 which I installed few days ago. We have few POP
accounts for the company, and the domain's MX records of course point to
this XMAIL box. We all use Microsoft Outlook 2000 or XP to fetch from
the POP3 server.

I have a weird case that I'm seeing for few users here. If they have an
E-mail message that exceeds few MB's, say 3MB's, Outlook continuously
downloads it and never deletes it from the server. In other cases,
Outlook reports that the connection to server has been cut and it
couldn't download all messages.

Now I know for a fact that the network is OK and disconnections are not
likely. Outlook never deletes those large messages, and worse than that,
it keeps downloading it from the POP3 server over and over again. When I
get into the mailbox using WAI's Web interface and delete those large
messages, then Outlook works correctly and doesn't get stuck with
subsequent messages.

Any idea how to even debug this problem?

2004-06-23 Thread Roman Dusek
No, I wrote it before - it happens only from time to time, under these 
conditions (I don't know which of them are essential):
- XMail running for a longer time (weeks since last restart)
- mailservers of users whose messages become duplicated have temporary 
delivery error at the time of sending e-mail to the mailing list.

But, most of e-mails sent to the same mailing list doesn't have any problem.

 Are there 10 copies of the *same* mailing list message to the *same* user
 inside the spool?

Exactly, that is the problem. In the file I have posted recently
(http://customer.iclub.cz/mail.zip), each directory contained theese copies
of the *same* mailing list message to the *same* user that I have found in
the spool (16 copies to one user in directory 1, 16 copies to another one
user in dir 2 and 4 copies to another user in directory 3)

 How such user delivery is handled? Does it have a
 mailproc.tab?

I'm not sure if I understand these questions. These users are outside
XMail, so no mailproc.tab. They are a kind of companies that are being
informed through this mailing list. In fact, this XMail server has one
domain with two accounts defined. One account is a mailing list with about
900 mlusers and another one is the user sending the message.

[xmail] email to mailing list delivered several times

2004-06-11 Thread Roman Dusek
Hi Davide,

the same situation happened again. Now I have gathered all the data, I hope 
it would help to find the problem.

To remind the situation: one e-mail sent to the mailing list causes 
sometimes that several messages to mailing list users are multiplicated 
inside the XMail queue into more identical messages that are all being 
delivered. End user then receives single e-mail in several copies.

This happens when mailing list user's mailserver is temporarily unreachable 
in the moment of sending email *and* XMail has been running for a long time 
without restarting. I don't know which of these two conditions (if any) is 
the important one.

I have put messages from the XMail queue (with removed message body to make 
it smaller) and their slog files to http://customer.iclub.cz/mail.zip (112 
KB). Archive contains three subdirectories, each of them contains all 
multiplicated copies of a message to a single mailing list user (and their 
slog flies). I can provide another ones if necessary.

Archive also contain smtp and smail log files - smtp log is filtered for 
specific message ID of the message sent to the mailing list (SEC41), smail 
log is filtered for three addresses corresponding to three directories 
described above. Please note that two of them aren't in the smail log file 
(that means message is multiplicated and no copy has been delivered to 
mailing list user yet) and one of them is in the smail log file for several 
times (that means several copies of that message has been delivered already 
and some of them were still in the queue - directory 3).

I'm using XMail 1.20 on Win2000.

As this situation causes me troubles, I would be very grateful for any help.

Thanks,
Roman

Hi,

according to documentation:

Indicate if mail has to be removed or stored in 'froz' directory after a 
failure in delivery or filtering.

I would suppose having RemoveSpoolErrors set to 1 there would be no

frozen messages in spool, mostly undelivered error messages from

This happens on XMail 1.18, no filters.

What could be the problem?

I'm not sure if there is some relevance, but I have seen via XMail Queue

[xmail] Re: custom domain Backup MX

2004-05-06 Thread Roman Dusek
I have the same problem. Cmdaliases is a good solution, bud its hard to 
keep them synchronized with primary server.

There is a XMail-SYNC software for Windows from AltairSoft that 
synchronizes custdomains (on domain basis) - it would be nice if it could 
synchronize cmdaliases on user basis - what do you say Michal? ;-)

If this spam is directly sent to the backup MX ( custom domain with

Has anyone found a solution or any idea to reduce process ?

cmdaliases implement custom domains at user base. we do backup mx so.

[xmail] status overview tool?

2004-04-01 Thread Roman Dusek
Hi all,

I would find usefull some tool that could bring me a quick overview of how 
bussy is currently XMail - especially how many e-mails to be sent are in 
queue (i.e. when some customer starts a mailing to several thousands 
addresses). Is there any easy way to do it? Or is there any tool (for windows)?

I know XMail Queue Manager but that is not quick enough.

If not, I would try to write it myslef.

[xmail] howto apply filter on redirect accounts

2004-02-09 Thread Roman Dusek
Hi,

according to my tests filters are applied only to messages that go into 
local mailbox (mailbox command in mailproc.tab) and are not applied to 
redirected messages (redirect command). Is there any way howto apply it 
on all incoming e-mails?

My configuration:
XMail 1.17
filters.in.tab contains:
* * 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 avfilter.tab

avfilter.tab works fine, it also logs any e-mail processed. E-mail to 
accounts that have redirect command are not processed.

I would like to apply antivirus filter and traffic counter filter to all 
messages including those redirected. Is it possible?

Thanks,

2003-10-17 Thread Roman Dusek

I have also no filters that would change the message file and the same 
situation occured, with two significant facts:
- analyzing the message file that caused pop3 session to crash I have found 
that the message file contained regular message body (itself ending with 
crlf) followed by couple of #00 bytes and then some amount of unknown 
data. System crash would cause the message file to be cut in the middle 
that was not the situation
- our mailserver is on UPS and had no crash for last several months

Lev, maybe analyzing your message file that caused pop3 session to hang 
would help.

If that's true, then we just narrowed down the problem to a

say, that the time-out occur in email clients and even those

the server, so the next time everything happens all over again.

I had to go to the mailbox folder and manually delete the file

After analyzing several of those files, I found that the
problem was improper terminated file. There where no CR LF at

Try it, just remove Carriage Return and Line Feed characters

that message.


Can this be fixed?

[xmail] Re: announce: AttachmentSplitter add-on for filters using F-Prot for DOS

2003-09-30 Thread Roman Dusek

Your mimeqp unfortunately doesn't solve F-Prot problem with Swen virus 
e-mails - the problem is probably in combination of multipart/alternative 
and multipart/related attachments that F-Prot seems not to be able to 
deal with. Splitting attachments should solve it in general.

You can test with Swen virus message downloadable from 
www.iclub.cz/xmail/_virus/swen.zip - running F-Prot on the message file or 
the one after mimeqp processing doesn't succeed in finding the virus. 
F-Prot succeeds after AttachmentSplitter processing the message.

Hi,

in some cases, F-Prot for DOS isn't able to parse message attachments from

this happens on Swen virus lately.

That's why I have developed the script that splits the message into several

files, viruses are detected successfully.

You can download the script and find more info on

[xmail] Problems when sending mail to _many_ recipients

2003-06-03 Thread Roman Dusek

Dear Davide,

I have encountered some problems when sending one e-mail to ~10.000 
recipients: I have set -Sr cmdline parameter to 12000, connected via telnet 
and copypaste file like:
helo mail
mail from: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
rcpt to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
rcpt to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
rcpt to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
. cca 10.000 addresses

XMail usually accepts about 3.000 - 5.000 addresses, then (different time 
on different point of the list) says: local error in processing and 
doesn't accept other addresses.

There is no problem in the addresses list as if I divide the list into 
several parts and copypaste each part separately with several seconds 
delay, the mail is sent to all the addresses with no problem.

I guess there could be:
- some buffer overflow in XMail
- clipboard problem in Win2000

XMail 1.15 running on WinNT 4.0 Terminal Server Edition SP6, Pentium/166, 
96 MB RAM

Kind regards,

[xmail] external app calling on XMail startup

I wonder whether it's possible to call some external application when XMail

And another question - if a filter is working (via filters/.tab) and didn't 
return any value yet, and the server / XMail is restarted - what happens to 
the half-processed message? Is it going to enter the filter again after 
XMail restart?

  Hi,
 
  Back again, with two questions this time and thanks again for your
  patience yesterday
 
  If I take a copy of all files contained within the /var/MailRoot/
  directory, can I restore them to another machine so that it can act as a
  secondary mail server?

if your idea is to build a backup MX machine, it's better that you
configure such machine with custom domains with redirct lines to the main
MX

[xmail] message headers when using aliases

2002-06-11 Thread Roman Dusek


Hi,

I need to setup mailbox that gets all the emails for the domain - i.e. 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

I use one account, let's say [EMAIL PROTECTED] and in aliases.tab I have: 
domain.com[TAB]*[TAB]mailbox

The problem is that if e-mail is sent to let's say [EMAIL PROTECTED], there 
is no header (except To: that is irrelevant) that would contain the 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] address. The X-Deliver-To header contains 
[EMAIL PROTECTED].

Thus when customer downloads the entire domain e-mails and would like to 
have his internal mailserver (FTGate) to sort it into mailboxes, he has no 
chance to do it.

I know of the solution to setup all the mailboxes (including 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]) on the XMail and set the 
redirect[TAB][EMAIL PROTECTED] mailproc command - then X-Deliver-To 
header is allright. But isn't there any solution that would work without 
setting up the particular e-mails on XMail?

Thank you,
Roman

[xmail] Re: message headers when using aliases

2002-06-11 Thread Roman Dusek


I am getting quite the same headers - recepient's address 
([EMAIL PROTECTED]) is only deep inside Received:... header and in 
To: header that can be hidden using Bcc. So where should the client 
mailserver get the right address from?

However, I don't see why you are having the problem with that setup, unless
it's related to how your client mail server is retrieving the mail. As I
indicated, the headers on the mail that is redirected contain the original
recipient when my mail client receives them. For example:

Return-Path: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Received: from sas-dc-mail-101.amazon.com (207.171.190.150)
  by arisiasoft.com (216.201.36.227) with [XMail 1.5 (Win32/Ix86)
ESMTP Server]
  id S5199D for [EMAIL PROTECTED] from
[EMAIL PROTECTED];
  Tue, 11 Jun 2002 07:38:30 -0400
Received: by sas-dc-mail-101.amazon.com (Postfix, from userid 1001)
  id 6FFDA59809; Tue, 11 Jun 2002 11:38:29 + (GMT)
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The mail client has to be getting the original recipient somewhere, which
means it has to be preserved by XMail when the mail is redirected by the *
alias.

At 08:54 6/11/2002 -0400, Tracy wrote:

 Set up a single mailbox and assign the * alias to that mailbox. That should
 direct all mail into that single mailbox - and the original recipient
 address will remain in place (I have a similar setup, and I use my mail
 client to sort based on the original recipient address).

[xmail] 1.3 version SMTP server problem

2002-01-09 Thread Roman Dusek

Hi all,

I have installed and run XMail version 1.2 on Win2000 with no problem, but 
now trying to run v. 1.3 on WinNT4 and cannot get SMTP server running. 
After sending HELO and getting 250 response, which is OK, but then after 
sending MAIL FROM: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I am getting: 451 Requested action 
aborted: (-31) local error in processing.

One more problem I have with CtrlClnt, that responds to any command with 
err -148: Resource lock entry not found

Maybe these two problems have anything common? Can anyone help?

Thanks,
Roman Dusek
