First out: give us real domain names. Avoids confusion.

Where do you want mail to the domain sss.ddd.com to go?

If you want it handled locally, try putting

:mmm.ddd.com

into control/smtproutes

Hi guys

I have had this problem for awhile now with every Linux + qmail box I have
set up. I have used all RedHat 6.x, running qmail with tcpserver on the
qmail and pop3 daemons, and supervise to keep an eye on it all, logging with
multilog. When I go to shutdown/restart a linux box, the killing of the
kernel logger and system logger takes absolutely ages, whereas without qmail
running (ie if none of it is alive when I shut the machine down) then it
shuts down just as normal. I have set up all as per Life With Qmail, so I
don't believe you need to read through my startup scripts since they are
virtually exactly the same as LWQ (with the obvious changes). Has anyone had
these problems, and more importantly has anyone solved them?

Thanks,

Hmm. /me thinks. Do you use svscan to start up your supervise processes?
There was a time when I neglected to have svscan killed off first, so
when I started killing off the supervise processes, they get respawned.
This, needless to say, does not make for a smooth shutdown.

All this is just a wild guess, of course.

I initally thought that too, but then I read the whole of Fabio's
message, and realised that Fabio's qmail-queue has exactly the same
ownership and permissions.

I suspect that /var was mounted with nosuid or somesuch. Or rather,
that was my conclusion when I first read the message, since I have
not given it further thought since.

Yes, I had an offline conversation with him that determined exactly that.

Do you have ddd.com in control/rcpthosts? 
Do you want to have the domain local or virtual? 

Have you restarted qmail?

Hi,
I tried the diagnostic utility www.qmail.org/qmail-lint-0.55 and I received this message:
 
Warning: users/assign checking not implemented
 
The file contains the following:
 
+{domain.name}-:{domain.name}:{vpopmailUID}:{vpopmailGID}:/home/vpopmail/domains/{domain.name}:-::
.
 
The question is: what is the syntax for this file and what is its role in the message delivering to a user created with qmailadmin?
It's not functioning properly.
Thank you
Marco

man qmail-users
It specifies what user local deliveries will be carried out as, and
which .qmail file(s) to use.

> It's not functioning properly.

Perhaps you could elaborate on that a bit?

Got strange problems with popbull (Qmail 1.03 + popbull patch 1.03):

  the new popbull patch isn't using 'cur' timestamp, but the stamp on the
'.timestamp' file in Maildir sub-dir. If I properly understood the popbull's
way of working, it should compare the time of the bulletins with the time of
the '.timestamp' - when bulletin is older, it shouldn't make a symlink in
/home/user/Maildir/new, when bulletin is newer, it should make a symlink,
and refresh the time of '.timestamp' (am I right?), to avoid sending the
bulletin over and over again.

  And this is exactly my problem: the users are receiving bulletins still
over and over, because (if I properly understand) time of the  '.timestamp'
is not refreshed after receiving the bulletin; it remain's still the same.

  When I erase .timestamp file, it's created by popbull anew, but then it
remains with it's date of creation forever.

Popbull is invoked in the following way:

/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -t3 -H -l pirx.ispid.com.pl 0 pop3 \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup pirx.ispid.com.pl /bin/checkpassword \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-popbull /var/spool/bulletins /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d
Maildir &

(last line, of course, isn't divided like above - 3. and 4. line are the
same line)

Perhaps somebody has a tip, how to get this to work properly?

Hello,
I own few ezmlm lists, I want to send a message to some of the lists at
once,
there are clients subscribed to more than one list,
is there a tool that prevents this situation of clients getting  more
than one copy of the message ?
Thanks,
Yair








You could always do this:

ezmlm-make . newlist ...
ezmlm-list list1 > subs
ezmlm-list list2 >>subs
...
ezmlm-sub `cat subs |sort|uniq`

I haven't tried, but it should work.

hello all

frequently (about 2 times a month) the file limits are being exceeded by
qmail haveing to many files open.  The box only has qmail/vpopmail and
pop3 running on it.

I have traced the 'failure' to 2 messages with 1053 reciepients listed.

Evidently there is no way I can find to increase the 1024 open file limit
on my 2.2.12 Red Hat box.

How do you control the incoming mail as to not force the system to error
out because of not open file resources?

Why dose qmail itself keep accepting SMTP connections (and having to
open a file to dump the mail to) when it must be getting an error about no
more open handles available???

Is anyone else runnng into this?

   I'm not familiar enough with the internals of qmail to give you any
advice on it's behaviour, but it is certainly possible to increase the
number of open files above 1024 on Linux.  see:

http://customer.support.redhat.com/rhoaprod/plsql/xxrh_know_pkg.srch2?p_id=3
52

   While those instructions were written for the 2.0.x kernels, I've used
the same procedure on 2.2.x, 2.3.x, and 2.4.x kernels.

Hi ,

To increase the number of file descriptors on Redhat 6.x add this to 
then end of /etc/rc.d/rc.local .

# increase max files
echo "32768" > /proc/sys/fs/file-max
# increase max inodes
echo "131072" > /proc/sys/fs/inode-max

Adjust the numbers to suit your install. You can also set the /proc 
values on the fly.

To see how many files and inodes are in use

cat /proc/sys/fs/file-nr
cat /proc/sys/fs/inode-nr

It gets a bit more complex than this as some programs set there 
maximum file descriptors at compile time ( eg squid) , dont think 
qmail falls into this category. You need to tweak some kernel include 
files for these ones /usr/include/linux/limits.h
/usr/include/linux/tasks.h

Regards
Simon.

Hi, friends 
Sorry, because I'm new in the world qmail 
I need know where is the information about rules antispam 
I won't be a open relay.

Please send me URL's for this configuration and also 
for the way of try than my configuration is OK. 
Where can I try my configuration?
I tried make a 
telnet mailabuse.org 
Is it a good try?

Thanks.

 





When i start qmail , all i get is a lot of lines like this:
#multilog: fatal: unable to switch to current directory: access denied

Thanks
Max

Add a 'cd /' to your startup script before qmail (with multilog) is
started.

Greetz, Peter.




I apologize of this is in the docs somewhere, but I didn't see it.

If I understand what rcpthosts does, I would think that this file should be
empty.  My understanding is that if the "To:" address contains a domain name
listed in rcpthosts, then it will relay that email.  So, a spammer can send
a message to mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED], and to a bunch of
spam victums in the cc and bcc fields.

If that's correct, and I'm using POP before SMTP, should I have an empty
rcpthosts file?

Thanks,

Peter Janett

Wrong. qmail looks at the envelope recipient, not at the headers. 
Besides... Having an empty rcpthosts would block mail allright... Even your
own local mail.

Don't think "relay".  Think "deliver".  That's why it's named
"rcpthosts".  That's "receipt hosts".  That's "hosts you will
*receive* mail for".  So it should list, like, all the hosts you will
unrestrictedly receive mail for.  Which generally means the ones
listed in locals plus the ones listed in virtualdomains.  You want any
site in the world to be able to send you mail for those sites.

I *think* the reason so many people get confused about this is because
of using POP clients, which send their outgoing mail via smtp.  That's
an anomaly and a distortion.  Thinking about that as your normal model
makes all the terminology come out wrong and causes confusion.  In the
*normal* unix world, locally-originated mail is injected into the
queue via qmail-inject, not delivered via smtp.

(Nothing at all wrong with using pop clients and such, it's just that
they don't follow the normal mail model, so trying to think about MTAs
from a pop client perspective seems to cause confusion.)

Now, "relaying" means "accept via SMTP mail that will NOT be delivered
locally, but will instead be sent on via SMTP".

Because of the need for relaying (if you act as a smart host for
system hidden behind you, or because of the need to relay for POP
clients), there are *two* kinds of mail you want to accept via SMTP:

First, mail intended for the local environment.  This is determined by
examing the envelope RCPT field; rcpthosts identifies which mail
should be accepted for this reason.

Second, mail which you wish to relay to its destination.  This mail is
identified based on where it comes *from* (the IP address of the
system initiating the SMTP connection), not where it's going *to*.
This mail is identified by the RELAYCLIENT environment variable set by
tcpserver, based on the originating IP address, either statically, or
dynamically using pop-before-smtp.  (or is injected locally using
qmail-inject; mail injected locally will never be bounced based on
anti-relaying rules).

Thanks for the responses.

Let me make sure I understand.

If newmediaone.net is in rcpthosts, and some spammer send this message via
SMTP:
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
CC: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]
BCC: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: whatever

Will the message be delivered to [EMAIL PROTECTED], but not the other
addresses listed?

Thanks!

Don't confuse headers with SMTP envelope recipients.  There's no
necessary relationship at all; and to the MTA, the message hearders
are nothing but data.  They're carried along, but they don't control
anything.

If a spammer sent that message with an envelope recipient of
[EMAIL PROTECTED], it would be accepted because newmediaone.net is in
rcpthosts.  

If the spammer sent a second envelope recipient of [EMAIL PROTECTED],
and aol.com is NOT in your rcpthosts, he'd get an error on that
recipient (unless RELAYCLIENT had been set through tcpserver when this
connection was accepted).

does that mean: the message is accepted *and* the mails to the Cc: header
recipients (which are not in rcpthosts) are *also* delivered? that was the
original question.

does a Cc: header create a second envenlope recipient? (so far i thought
it doesnt)

Yes, I figured that was the question. Of course, qmail-smtpd is an
SMTP server; it only cares about what's in the envelope. It _doesn't_
care about what's in the message header.

Envelope recipients are accepted or rejected on a case-by-case basis.
If you specify multiple recipients in an SMTP conversation, some may
be accepted, some may be rejected. control/rcpthosts determines which
ones to accept/reject.

> does a Cc: header create a second envenlope recipient? (so far i thought
> it doesnt)

The machine talking to the SMTP server may specify the Cc recipient
as an envelope recipient. The SMTP server itself, however, does not
do that (since, as I said before, the SMTP server does not look at
the message header).

As lurkers should tell by now: the envelope is totally independent of
the header. Bcc works because it specifies recipients in the envelope
that do not get specified in the header.

Hi, i have recently installed qmail and everything is working fine bar one
thing... on our website we run a cut down version of slashcode which allows
users to sign up for accounts and personalise their view of our site, during
the registration procedure the site sends the user their user name and
password to them via email... its does this by using the program "mail"
which worked fine when using sendmail, however since switching to qmail when
ever someone tries to sign up they never get their password we get this
error in the apache logs 
"newaliases: fatal: unable to create /etc/aliases.tmp: access denied" now i
was wondering if there is a "mail" variant for qmail... any help would be
greately appreciated 

Cheers
Danny

Let me ask: why is your script trying to run ``newaliases''? It has no
business doing so. If newaliases needs to be run, do it via a cron job.

qmail's (or rather, fastforward's) newaliases has to be called by a
user with write access to /etc; usually the superuser. sendmail's
version, on the other hand, can be called by all ``trusted'' (class t
in sendmail.cf) users, since sendmail is setuid.

Just take out any instances of ``newaliases'' from your script, and I
believe things will be fine.

According to INSTALL.alias, you should create the ~alias/.qmail-XXX
files by touching them. Presumably you *wouldn't* be logged in as alias,
so the owner wouldn't be alias. Maybe that doesn't matter, but upon
inspection, I find all my ~alias/.qmail-XXX files are owned by
root:qmail.

Also, and more importantly, the dot-qmail man page says:

       If .qmail is world-writable or group-writable, qmail-local
       stops and indicates a temporary failure.

Your permissions are group writable. chmod 644 .qmail-postmaster and see
if the delivery works.

Tim,

Thank you for the previous recommendations.  However, it still is not
working...  (this is crazy)

To answer you directly:

1)  In /var/qmail/control does rcpthosts and locals have:

missionprinting.org

in them?

ANSWER:
rcpthosts did have it.
locals did not have it.

Instructions provided at:

http://www.tibus.net/pgregg/projects/qmail/single-uid-howto.html

specifically said not to add <company>.<org> to the locals file as it would
disturb delivery of EMAIL.  I tried it, and the server would receive EMAIL
for everyone, but would not place the EMAIL in anyone's boxes.

2)  Users are defined as you documented below in the assign file.

3)  START/STOP QMAIL.  At this point, I am rebooting the server just to be
sure...

***

More suggestions will be welcomed.  Please keep me in mind!

Thanks!

Tom,

In /var/qmail/control does rcpthosts and locals have:

missionprinting.org

in them?

And the next thing I can think of is where does the
email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
point to? Is it defined in /var/qmail/users/assign file?

=tom.sarrett.jr:<unix id>:UID:GID:<home-directory>:::

And then you created the cdb file using the
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-newu command?

Or is it an aliases that is defined in /etc/aliases
that is used by fastforward?

I am just throwing out ideas... to debug this...

And after all the changes, have you stopped and started qmail?

I have attached a PDF which helps to show the flow
through qmail (the Big Picture)...

Can you please stop being so verbose with your requests. You're clogging

you're so full in and descriptive in your question, here's the answer:

Kinda off topic, but with the intelligent people in this group hopefully I
can get an answer.

Since qmail doesn't support fallback smtp hosts, does anyone know how to
setup linux to go out a different way...let me explain.

I have 2 dsl connections to the internet with seperate providers.  As it
stands know if the one with the default route dies I am sunk unless I am
here to change.  I would like to have 2 default routes and have it use one
as the primary and the other as the secondary default route.  I have tried
many different things but cannot get it to work.  I have tried putting both
in as default and one having a slightly higher metric and pulled the plug on
the main on, but nothing goes out until I plug it back in.

Any ideas???

Is there a way to automatically tell when one of the routes will fall
over? If so, just have a script automatically rewrite ``smtproutes''
when that happens.

Try:
exec env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:$PATH" \
qmail-start ./Mailbox splogger qmail

That trailing \ helps...

Hi there , im really confused about the following:

Using qmail 1.03
and
vpopmail 4.9

i set up 2 virtualdomains

myfirst.domain
mysecond.domain

I want my users to have the same account on both domains therefor i set up

../vpopmail/domains/myfirst.domain/USER/Maildir
using the adduser command

and

../vpopmail/domains/mysecond.domain/.qmail-USER

to redirect mail in the "myfirst.domain-maildir"

.qmail-USER looks like the following

/../vpopmail/domains/myfirst.domain/USER/

Mails injected via SMTP to [EMAIL PROTECTED] are processed normally while
mails injected to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
produce logfile output like the following:

info msg 360546: bytes 190 from <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> qp 22702 uid 503
starting delivery 1: msg 360546 to local
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
status: local 1/10 remote 0/20
delivery 1: deferral: Temporary_error_on_maildir_delivery._(#4.3.0)/

What the ..?

Thanx
Manuel
