Hi, I'm using the patch found at members.elysium.pl/brush/qmail-smtpd-auth to autenticate senders. My problem is that I have to run it (through inetd) as root, in order for it to work, my inetd.conf has the following entry: smtp stream tcp nowait qmaild /usr/sbin/tcpd /var/qmail/bin/tcp-env /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd /bin/checkpassword /bin/true That configuration only works if i substitute qmaild with root. I have tried chmoding /etc/shadow so qmaild can read it. I've also set so qmaild can execute /bin/checkpassword. Now, I know you're supposed to run qmaild through tcpserver nowadays, but I can't seem to get that to work with another user except from root either. Anyone with a clue? The logs don't show anything unnormal as I can see. Thanks /Chris
Hello, I have been having exactly the same problem. I solved it by creating an empty ~alias/.qmail-default file.

Hi all, does anyone know why tcpserver would die? I have a lightly hit server and discovered that it was not servicing pop3 requests anymore, tcpserver was not running. The only non-standard things I'm doing is authenticating with vchkpw from the vpopmail software. It started right back up but I see no reason why it would have stopped. Here's how I start it: case "$1" in start) # Start daemons. echo -n "Starting the POP3 daemon: " env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:/usr/local/bin" \ tcpserver -v -g 200 -u 407 -p -R 0 pop3 \ /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup my.server.com \ /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir 2>&1 | \ /var/qmail/bin/splogger pop3 20 & echo "Done." ;; Thanks, David
Was it started at reboot or did you start it manually? If the latter, did it exit when the login session that started it, logged out? How about now? How did you restart it? Reboot or manually? If the latter, is that login session still going? Regards. On Mon, Nov 06, 2000 at 08:57:10AM -0500, Hubbard, David wrote: > Hi all, does anyone know why tcpserver would die?

Also that will only work for eMails injected via SMTP. Real "local" users that inject via qmail-inject can still send messages of any size. \Maex -- SpaceNet GmbH | http://www.Space.Net/ | Stress is when you wake Research & Development | mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | up screaming and you Joseph-Dollinger-Bogen 14 | Tel: +49 (89) 32356-0 | realize you haven't D-80807 Muenchen | Fax: +49 (89) 32356-299 | fallen asleep yet.

If you always have more than one new message on each loop of the scheduler, your system is not going to be able to catch up unless you can make the scheduler loop more often. ;-) The problem is that it's fairly easy to create traffic which causes the todo queue to grow faster than it can be processed. At one point a few years ago I had tweeked with building an SMTP system that could handle injecting messages into a queue much faster than qmail, and I had relative success. Let me run that test again... Nearly 400 3KB messages per second. I really should find time to work on that system again... Sean -- America has the best government money can buy! VOTE!

I know Dan has commented on this kind of thing before, and I'm sure he'd actually tested it. The gist of his comments as I remember was that fork() and exec() have gotten an unjustified bad reputation among UNIX programmers which they DO NOT DESERVE. Forking a small process is quite cheap, and exec is even cheaper. I think expending effort on an ugly hack of an optimization like this is poorly considered when there are far more fundamental causes of poor performance than this in qmail. -Matt -- | Matthew J.

I think there shouldn't be one queue in the scheduler. There's IMHO no need to have the scheduler do both: insert new messages and schedule deliveries. the big-todo patch has nothing to do with it. it just speeds up access time on some filesystems. > >well administrated and even after the queue has reached a status where > >you have no unprocessed messages at one point the bounces slow down > >qmail quite a lot. > > Sounds like a good case for setting up a second qmail, one just for pumping > mail out while another is handling bounces. Sorry? No you can't, at least not with a lot of the bounces. If qmail-remote gets a permantent error, it signals back to qmail-send and a bounce is generated internally (i.e. injected into the queue). You can't avoid this happen locally. \Maex -- SpaceNet GmbH | http://www.Space.Net/ | Stress is when you wake Research & Development | mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | up screaming and you Joseph-Dollinger-Bogen 14 | Tel: +49 (89) 32356-0 | realize you haven't D-80807 Muenchen | Fax: +49 (89) 32356-299 | fallen asleep yet.

Otherwise you chew up a lot of time in the kernel. That's why I said it's a good idea to have a scheduler that gives precedence to the todo queue. Why do you disagree? >Sorry?

If it's important to you to do so, simply move into place a qmail-queue which injects the messages into the other queue. If you're still injecting into the main queue at this time, you'll need to call qmail-queue directly. It all comes down to how important it is to you to get better performance. The images posted previously suggest that their biggest problem was with remote bounces, however. If they were local bounces, I would expect to have seen consistently lower performance, but the way it looked to me was that delivery would pick up quite nicely and run for a while until remote hosts started turning around a bunch of bounces. That was just a guess, but it seemed not entirely an unreasonable one. Sean -- Hack the man. VOTE!

I totally agree with the performance gain of the big todo patch on such systems. However, if you e.g. have a busy "incoming" server I don't see why it would be good to give precedence to processing the incoming queue. IMHO you can't generalize that. It heavily depends on the sort of messages you receive. If within one loop of the scheduler you always have one incoming message with one remote delivery it's a pari situation, but if you always have one incoming message with more than one remote delivery it would be IMHO better to priorize deliveries. > >Sorry?

Ok, thats a valid point :-) I'll try setting up a second queue (i.e. for bounces) on the "waving" server and see if performance changes. > The images posted previously suggest that their biggest problem was with > remote bounces, however.

That was just > a guess, but it seemed not entirely an unreasonable one. In the first image (wavy server) the MX of the sender address is set to another server. The slow down because of bounces are those bounces that get a permanent error directly from qmail-remote. \Maex -- SpaceNet GmbH | http://www.Space.Net/ | Stress is when you wake Research & Development | mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | up screaming and you Joseph-Dollinger-Bogen 14 | Tel: +49 (89) 32356-0 | realize you haven't D-80807 Muenchen | Fax: +49 (89) 32356-299 | fallen asleep yet.

Right now, fork() and exec() (funny how exec() actually doesn't exist :) are the only calls that I trust to be portable over a wide range of UNIXes. > I think expending effort on an ugly hack of an optimization like this > is poorly considered when there are far more fundamental causes of > poor performance than this in qmail. Very correct. Useful things would possibly be redesigning the scheduler so that high concurrency could be reached much faster while injection is still happening. Even djb states (in THOUGHTS?) that there is room for improvement.

It works pretty fine, but at the end of the smtp session he says "451 qq trouble creating files in queue (#4.3.0)", what does that mean and where can I get information about this error?

Hi Everyone We need transfer emails using UUCP. The n/w consists of a QMail server (Q1) which needs to fetch/send mails from a central qmail server (Q2) using UUCP over dialup. Now the fetching of emails is partly complete. We have two problems. 1. Qmail on server Q1 is unable to deliver the mail fetched over UUCP to the local POP mailboxes. How do we setup Qmail to deliver mail fetched over UUCP to the local pop mailboxes.? 2. How does the server Q1 send outgoing email to the central server Q2? We have considered using SMTP, but since the dial up connection is available only for less than an hour daily, it will not be possible for Qmail to pump out all queued emails during that period. Can UUCP solve this problem? Any help would be greatly welcomed. Thanks Ruchir

Date: Mon, 06 Nov 2000 17:14:14 +0530 From: Ruchir Chandra <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 1. Qmail on server Q1 is unable to deliver the mail fetched over UUCP to the local POP mailboxes. How do we setup Qmail to deliver mail fetched over UUCP to the local pop mailboxes.? In what way does it fail? What precisely are you trying to do? Sending mail over UUCP is normally done by using uux to invoke rmail on the remote system. To make this work, you must have a copy of the rmail program, which is provided by neither qmail nor UUCP. The rmail which comes with sendmail will work with qmail. 2. How does the server Q1 send outgoing email to the central server Q2? We have considered using SMTP, but since the dial up connection is available only for less than an hour daily, it will not be possible for Qmail to pump out all queued emails during that period. Can UUCP solve this problem? You can send outgoing mail over UUCP. See http://cr.yp.to/qmail/faq/outgoing.html#uucp However, if your dialup connection is not up for long enough to send out all your mail messages, then you are still going to have trouble. UUCP does not increase the bandwidth available over a link. Ian

Look at the Received headers, see if you can tell the first SMTP server it comes from. Test it to see if it is an open relay. If it is, you're in trouble because it is hard to track them. If it isn't, the spam is being sent from a user authorised to use that server. Easy solution? Create a ~alias/.qmail-user that contains &[EMAIL PROTECTED] or &postmaster@[ip.addr.of.relay] and let their postmaster deal with it. Brett. -- "I don't have anything against geeks.

Dear All I've setup a qmail / vpopmail combo and added a Virtual domain. This machine is not connected to the internet (I am using it for local testing / install scripts for a bunch of servers). It delivers to know address fine - but when I send a message to a nonexistant_address@existing_domain I get the log entries below (no funny what do the logs say ... comments ;-). I know I am missing something simple - but why is qmail looking in /etc/qmail/aliases ?!?! in /var/qamil/aliases/.qmail-postmaster is: &[EMAIL PROTECTED] Is this mix up due to the fact that I do not have a DNS entry for localhost.localdomain (obviously!) and that gjjc@rubber ... is a non local address ?

Hello, I had to reinstall part of my system, and since then qmail is acting strangely. I have tried to locate the answer in the archives, but I cannot find it. When I dial into my ISP, qmail now starts downloading incoming mail by itself. It did not do that before. In itself this is not a terrible thing, but the mail that is retrieved is dumped into the alias-directory that I set up for serialmail. This directory usually just contains the mail I want to send out. Can anyone please tell me how to prevent qmail from downloading my e-mails?

Looks good... I tried not play with the original rblcheck as much as possible. Thanks for the tips, I'll roll them in when I get a chance. My plan is to rewrite the whole mess to make it a bit more coherent (not that rblcheck wasn't, but the combo of my code and his isn't the cleanest, and there's extra stuff in there that doesn't need to be). jon On Mon, Nov 06, 2000 at 03:25:33PM +0000, Tullio Andreatta wrote: > >I'm not an experienced C programmer, so feedback is welcome and > >encouraged. > > Using dynamic allocated memory to store static data is not so good. > Since we know RBL domains at compile time, how about ... > > struct rbl { > char *site; > unsigned int rating; > } rblsites[] = { > { "rbl.maps.vix.com", 16}, > { "dul.maps.vix.com", 8}, > { "relays.mail-abuse.org", 4}, > { "outputs.orbs.org", 2}, > { "relays.orbs.org", 1}, > { NULL, 0 } > }; > > struct rbl *ptr; > > ... and ... > > rblfiltered = 0; > for (ptr = rblsites; ptr->site != NULL; ptr++) > { > if (max_rating >= ptr->rating) > { > response = rblcheck(a, ptr->site, txt); > if (response) > rbfiltered += ptr->rating; > } > } > > return rbfiltered; > } > > ... ?

After all, a new I've been thinking about something similar. Suppose you're an ISP that hosts domains for your customers. IMHO it would be a nice service to offer the option of using MAPS RBL, RSS or ORBS for your customers. For example, if you want to offer a) no filtering b) MAPS RBL c) MAPS RBL + RSS d) MAPS RBL + RSS + ORBS you'd setup your qmail-installation as you normally would, but create some extra qmail-smtpds on different IP adresses, and point the domain MX record to the qmail-smtp of your choice.

Hi everyone. I use the pop daemon from qmail (qmail-pop3d) and the Outlook Express program is making me crazy. I looked for a solution in the archives, but i didn't find it. My problem is: My clients use Microshit Outlook Express and i'm having a lot of error messages from qmail pop server: Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity. Account: 'infomoney', Server: 'mail.infomoney.com.br', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCC0F Then I try again, and everything works fine! Then I try again and the error reappear, and ... The computer with the pop daemon is on the same network that the clients are. I can ping the machine all the time. There are no network problems neither a long period of inactivity (i suppose). The config of qmail is so simple that i couldn't find anything suspect. What is happening? There is no way to change from Outlook to other mail client. I have seen that there are many problems with Outlook, but i need a solution using outlook express. Can someone help? I'm sorry if the solution is in the docs, or in the faq, or in the archives, or ... but I looked for and I found nothing. Thank you for your help, cassio.

Hello! My server is going to receive emails that look lke this: vy-anon(anumber)@mydomain.com where (number) is a timestamp. I do not know what the number will be since it is generated on-the-fly. However, all such emails will be processed by the same facility. Reading the man pages (shock!) I found that there is a facility for this very thing - you add a config line to users/assign file then run newu. Here is my config line: +vy-anon:fred:1000:100:/usr/local/myapp::: My problem is that I can't deduce what the .qmail file is supposed to be called. Everything works fine if I put .qmail-default in /usr/local/myapp. But I don't want a default file - I want a config file that is explicitly associated with vy-anon. The documentation spells it out fairly well for simple conversions but I am confused by the sentence pertaining to wildcards. Here is a portion of the man page: |WILDCARD ASSIGNMENTS | A wildcard assignment is a line of the form | | +loc:user:uid:gid:homedir:dash:pre: | The crux is this "pre" value. What is this!? In the example above, what should the .qmail file be called? Thanks, Tony

The man pages for the version of qmail I'm using says that the cdb file is made from the assign file: "qmail-newu reads the assignments in /var/qmail/users/assign and writes them into /var/qmail/users/cdb in a binary format suited for quick access by qmail-lspawn."

Then run qmail-newu, which will gen the cdb file. I think you might need to restart qmail too. - David Geller
Ok, if I understand the process, qmail allows me to use the /var/qmail/users/assign file to define wildcard email address processing. Basically, I can define a user and a directory to use when processing emails whose addresses start with certain characters. qmail looks into the specified directory and tries to file a .qmail file. If there isn't a suitable one, it creates something called Mailfile. That isn't what I want. If it finds a file called .qmail-default, it executes the instructions within and does exactly what I want. I don't want to use .qmail-default, however. My problem is that I want to use a more specific name for the .qmail file. I can't deduce from the man pages what the qmail file should be called. ********** As per the man page for qmail-user, .qmail files ARE involved: "A simple assignment is a line of the form =local:user:uid:gid:homedir:dash:ext: Here local is an address; user, uid, and gid are the account name, uid, and gid of the user in charge of local; and messages to local will be controlled by homedir/.qmaildashext." ********* I believe there is an alias facilty that does something similar and involves something to do with sticking .qmail files in the qmail/aliases directory. I have had poor success with that - I wonder if the qmail daemon has the authority to write into my application's directories.

Yeah, right... And for someone recommending RFCs to a mail server beginner, you're displaying an astounding amount of uninformedness about simple things like "I do not quote signatures", "no need to Cc: people who are subscribed to a mailing list, anyway" or "I need to get an operating system before talking to the big boys about 'puters". -- Robin S.
