hi list!
so... i've read a number of posts, looked in a number of places, compiled and recompiled numerous times, but i can't get qmail/vpopmail/courier on linux to write to an sql relay table. everything works except this part. i can authenticate and receive via pop or imap, and either over ssl. i can send using webmail on the local system.
i used the same patches and the same configure concoctions to compile the same software on two different freebsd boxes and it works fine (please don't ask why i don't just use the bsd boxes).
so, here's my configure lines:
no patches to vpopmail. i started with 5.3.23 and am on 5.3.27 now with the same results
/usr/local/src/vpopmail-5.3.27 ./configure --enable-mysql=y --enable-roaming-users=y \ --enable-defaultquota=1073741824S,100000C --enable-learn-passwords=y \ --enable-logging=p --enable-mysql-logging=y --enable-qmail-ext=y
no patches for courier imap. started with 2.1.1, am using 2.1.2 now.
/usr/local/src/courier-imap-2.1.2 ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --exec-prefix=/usr/local --without-authldap \ --without-authshadow --with-authvchkpw --without-authcram \ --sysconfdir=/usr/local/etc/courier-imap \ --datadir=/usr/local/share/courier-imap \ --libexecdir=/usr/local/libexec/courier-imap \ --enable-workarounds-for-imap-client-bugs --disable-root-check \ --without-authdaemon --with-redhat
my qmail-smtpd startup is: (variables are handled in the script) exec softlimit -m 8000000 tcpserver -S -R -H -c100 -x /usr/local/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -u $QMAILUID -g $NOFILESGID 0 smtp qmail-smtpd salo.chubbo.net /usr/local/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /usr/bin/true splogger smtpd
have tried removing path to tcp.smtp.cdb too.
/var/qmail/control/sql server localhost port 3306 database vpopmail table relay user vpopmail pass password time 1800
~vpopmail/etc/vpopmail.mysql localhost|0|vpopmail|password|vpopmail localhost|0|vpopmail|password|vpopmail
i'm logging mysql traffic for debugging and i don't see any inserts into the relay table, only selects and deletes (from cron).
ucspi was patched with mr simerson's ucspi-tcp-0.88-mysql3+rss.patch although i have tried ucspi-tcp-0.88-mysql+rss.patch with the same results.
i really hope i'm stupid this year and it's a simple thing, but i can't figure it out.
thoughts and helpful comments appreciated.
thanks in advance! joe
I cant help you on the problem about it not adding entries, but have you considered using a qMail auth patch for outgoing, so clients can AUTH to send mail. This would do the same thing, and would work as you intended, to let someone relay.
