Hi, Recently I installed a bells-and-whistles mailserver on a Debian Sarge box, acoording to the howto at http://www.web-cyradm.org/documentation/debian_sarge-cyrus-howto.pdf
It runs quite fine (using Postfix-mysql, Cyrus, Web-cyradm, ...) but now I want to get some mail over pop3 (from my provider) and deliver it to a mailbox on the debian box. Postfix is configured to deliver it's mail to cyrus. I found that fetchmail should be a bit insecure, so I decided to try Getmail (http://pyropus.ca/software/getmail/). Should be easy to configure too. My idea is to forward the mail with smtp to localhost to a specified mail address. Then the message should proceed the normal way (amavis virus and spam filtering and deliver with cyrus). Because I only found procmail, mailbox and maildir configurations for getmail on the internet, I tried to use this home-brew configuration Make a user getmailuser In homedir, create ./getmail/getmailrc file getmailrc file content section destination [destination] type = MDA_external path = /usr/cyrus/bin/deliver arguments = ("-m the.existing.cyrus.user") when I try to run "getmail" as getmailuser, I get this error message: Delivery error (command deliver 11252 error (75, couldn't connect to lmtpd: Permission denied)) It also says the message is retrieved succesfully, but not delivered. Running as root (with appropiate getmail options) isn't succesfull too: Delivery error (command deliver 11260 error (127, exec of command deliver failed (refuse to invoke external commands as root or GID 0 by default))) The question: How to get getmail forward to smtp with a mail address, or to cyrus (quite bad, because then no virusscanning is done) TNX in advance, Corné -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
