Hi,
I've been using spamdyke for about 2 weeks now, and I'm quite satisfied
with the results. Thanks for this great tool.
As the subject states, I'm running a Plesk 8.1 based system. Today I
upgraded from the 2.6.3 version, to the 3.1.0.
The good news is: I got everything working so far.
But what made me curious are two things:
With the old 2.6.3 I could use the --smtp-auth-command option, with the
new 3.1.0 this does not work anymore. "Not working anymore" in this case
means, that I have to remove this option or my client gets an error
message. In the logs it looks like authentication is tried twice. Really
weired, but since Plesk delivers a SMTP_AUTH capable server, this is no
problem - at least my relaying tests all failed when not authenticated.
So I think I'm still good.
During the trial and error phase of this, I ran the --config-test option
of spamdyke. Although smtp authentication works, the config-test gives
me this warning:
WARNING: /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd does not appear to offer SMTP AUTH
support. Please use the "smtp-auth-command" flag or the
"smtp-auth-command-encryption" flag as well as the "access-file" and
"local-domains-file" flags so spamdyke will be able to authenticate
users and correctly allow them to relay.
Now I'm wondering why this warning occurs at all. Is it a
misconfiguration on my part, or just the config-test failing to detect
the SMTP AUTH capabilities of my qmail_smtpd?
bye, Michael
P.S.: Although offtopic: Can anybody point me to a place where the
commandline of qmail_smtpd is explained? Basically I would like to know,
why /var/qmail/bin/true has to be in the commandline twice, or even
better, what qmail_smtpd in general does with it's parameters? Thanks.
