A two part question. 1. What is morerecpthosts and morercpthosts.cdb? Is there a limit to the number of hosts that can be in the rcpthosts file? 2. Do you think it would be safe to use NFS to mount my /var/qmail/control directory on our backup MX and then use symlinks of the nfs mounted rcpthosts file to the local file? For the number of domains I have, I want to avoid having to edit multiple files everytime we add one or delete one. Should I also link morercpthosts and morercpthosts.cdb? Thanks, Greg

You're limited only by memory ... however, qmail-smtpd reads the whole file every time it starts up. So you're better advised to put the first fifteen busiest hosts in rcpthosts, and the rest in morercpthosts.cdb. > 2.

Is there a limit to the > number of hosts that can be in the rcpthosts file? morercpthosts is (as the name implies) a supplement to rcpthosts, which is used by qmail-smtpd to decide whether to accept mail. rcpthosts lists hosts for which qmail-smtpd is allowed to accept email. morercpthosts, if it exists, ``is effectively appended to rcpthosts'' [see qmail-smtpd(8)]. morercpthosts.cdb is created by running qmail-newmrh with morercpthosts as input. You must do this, because morercpthosts.cdb is what qmail-smtpd actually uses. The idea here is to make qmail-smtpd faster IF you handle mail for a very large number of domains. As a rule of thumb, ``large'' means more than fifty. Putting your most commonly used sites in rcpthosts means that qmail-smtpd will usually ignore morercpthosts.cdb. When the client specifies an envelope recipient whose domain is not in rcpthosts, then qmail-smtpd will check for the domain in morercpthosts.cdb as a fallback. > 2.

If you do this, then the two MX hosts will behave _identically_. In particular, qmail on the backup MX will try to do local deliveries because of the shared copy of control/locals. If that's what you want, then you _can_ do this; just be very sure its what you want. To my little brain, though, it doesn't make a lot of sense to share everything in /var/qmail/control. It would make more sense if you put both hosts IP addresses under the same name, and set your DNS server to hand out both addresses randomly for load-balancing purposes. You will also have to NFS-mount the delivery destinations (/var/spool or users' home directories) so that either host can do local deliveries. If by ``backup MX'' you really mean ``secondary MX'', then I wouldn't use this scheme. Instead, I would use ssh and rsync to share carefully selected files (such as rcpthosts and morercpthosts). Put the right commands in /var/qmail/control/Makefile on your authoritative host, and run ``make'' after updating any control files.

I'm guessing that's the point: to keep large rcpthosts lists from turning qmail-smtpd into a memory hog. > I've heard that 50 lines in rcpthosts makes a good rule-of-thumb.

You should use it for performance reason if you have more than a couple of domains. > 2.

If your primary MX goes down for any reason that also affects the NFS service, the backup won't work either. Better replicate the files regularily. Claus -- http://www.faerber.muc.de

Title: RE: DO NOT TRY INSTALLING QMAIL ON MANDRAKEHi,
I doubt about Mandrake 7.0 but I have installed Qmail1.03 on MAndrake 6.0 and that is working excellent. I haven't ever received this error. But i don't use CNAME LOOKUP with Qmail because this set isn't necessary for our system.
Best regards..

I fixed my DNS problem (applied a patch, and installed latest bind) and I finished to think the problem is Mandrake7, because qmail didn't run. I only wanted to know why. I know this fact is strange, but is real: qmail 1.03 does not work with Mandrake7. Regards, Miguel Beccari

I don't know anything about Mandrake7, but this is almost certainly not the case. I still suggest that you have a DNS problem. By the way, since the time I sent the initial response to your question, eleven different machines at your ISP have opened SMTP connections to my server every few seconds without sending anything (132 connections so far). What's up with that? Chris

I did have something similar. Does qmail start for you? Can it resolve the MX for your domain? The problem I had was in the /etc/rc.d/init.d/qmail-pop3d.init file with the programs called in the HOST variable (specifically dnsfq). I changed those calls to specify the domain name on my system and then it started working. Why it didn't work before, I don't know, but after I made that change it did work. If you install from tarballs, you use the qmail script (not any qmail-*.init files which come from the tcpserver-initscripts package, I believe), and I don't even think dnsfq is installed (at any rate, it's not on my system), and things work fine. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED], OpenPGP key available on www.keyserver.net Freezer Burn BBS: telnet://bbs.freezer-burn.org .

Qmail works 100% but can't deliver mail to remote hosts: CNAME LOOKUP UP FAILURE. qmail receive mails at 100% and deliver them to local users (also at virtual domains).

Yes. I follow Life with qmail for the installation. I repeat: Qmail works 100% but can't deliver mails to remote hosts. I couldn't explain this fact. regards, Miguel

CNAME LOOKUP FAILUR != Broken Mandrake7 It means a broken DNS configuration. It can't be patched, it has to be fixed in your config files.
Just a thought, what did you set your security level to on the mandrake install? I installed using paranoid (level=5). One of the headaches this caused was that it set the file permissions on /etc/resolv.conf to 400, and kept returning them to 400 when a security audit was run. It caused all sorts of odd DNS errors on non-root processes. FYI, when I tried to install qmail I had this same problem, and just switched back to postfix. However, this was before I fixed that little resolv.conf problem. Maybe it works now? Anyway, check that you can resolve the MX you're sending to after su'ing to the qmail user. ----- Original Message ----- > I tried and tried to install QMAIL 1.03 on Mandrake7.0 with NO SUCCESS! > Something seems to work wrong on Mandrake, and qmail gives CNAME LOOKUP > FAILURE.
How to make qmail to add message ID, and date in case there is no message ID and date, like sendmail does. I want qmail to at least to add date to header in case there is no date, because in a mailling list I am handling now, I want to strip off the date line at DIR/headerremove, to make user always get the same format date. for example GMT+7. I don;t want different people in the milis have different GMT setting, which will make difficult to sort the messages. Or even if there are some people whom computers are set in wrong date.

Makes no sense to me. However, either you need to add the header in ezmlm or ask ezmlm to inject message with qmail-inject and not directly with qmail-queue. > for > example GMT+7.

Add mydomain.com to /var/qmail/controls/rcpthosts on server2.mydomain.com, and make sure that mydomain.com is _not_ in /var/qmail/controls/locals. -- Quist Consulting Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 219 Donlea Drive Voice: +1.416.696.7600 Toronto ON M4G 2N1 Fax: +1.416.978.6620 CANADA WWW: http://www.quist.on.ca

This question has been answered too often. Nothing on server1 and put domain.com in ONLY rcpthosts on server2. Ronny

[ A person somewhat knowledgable in terms of MTAs and DNS came up with FAQ 4.1 as covering his query.] Dan: Perhaps it should be an entry for the Qmail FAQ? -- Quist Consulting Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 219 Donlea Drive Voice: +1.416.696.7600 Toronto ON M4G 2N1 Fax: +1.416.978.6620 CANADA WWW: http://www.quist.on.ca
I see. So perhaps, this is the future: cat /var/service/qmail/run #!/bin/sh exec envdir /var/service/qmail/envdir qmail-start where cat /var/service/qmail/envdir/DEFAULTDELIVERY ./Maildir/ cat /var/service/qmail/envdir/ALIAS alias:80 cat /var/service/qmail/envdir/QMAILP qmailp:83 cat /var/service/qmail/envdir/QMAILQ qmailq:84 [...] cat /var/service/qmail/envdir/NOFILES nofiles:80 cat /var/service/qmail/envdir/QMAIL qmail:81 Lovely, Mate

I have only 50 users using e-mail so i didnt use tcpserver. *++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++* * Les Higger ITAF , * Local Area Network Coord. * [EMAIL PROTECTED] * Francisco Bravo Medical Magnet High School * Los Angeles Unified School District ---> Old men can give flawless advice, for they nolonger can set bad examples <---
