[toaster] Help :: SMTP Auth Doesn't work
Hi, Thanks to Bill's toaster, I have succeeded in setting qmail+vpopmail with mysql user auth. I have no problem in sending email to users in the same domain. However, while sending to external users, the SMTP Authentication seems not working. My mail client always report SEND - WARNING: there were no compatible authentication mechanisms detected SEND - Message has not been sent. Server reply - sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts (#5.7.1) Can anyone advise what's going on and how to debug it? FYI, the qmailctl stat shows every process are running fine. TIA. -- Best regards, YM

Hi, I realize that the problem in my previous email may be related to TLS issue. After compiling qmail, I issue the "make cert" but I got "make: *** No rule to make target `cert'. Stop." error. I skip "make cert" and "make tmprsadh" part and continue with the installation. I check my Linux installation and find that OpenSSL is openssl-0.9.7d-25 and OpenSSL-devel rpm is also installed. Can someone advise? TIA. -- Best regards, YM

Re[2]: [toaster] Help :: SMTP Auth Doesn't work [2]
Hi Bill, Thanks for your reply. I found that I didn't install stunnel rpm in my SuSE pro 9.2. I then installed the rpm for it. From stunnel website, I found that the "make cert" is equivalent to (umask 077; \ /usr/bin/openssl req -new -x509 -days 365 -nodes \ -config /usr/share/doc/packages/stunnel/stunnel.cnf \ -out /etc/stunnel/stunnel.pem -keyout /etc/stunnel/stunnel.pem) So execute these commands and have the /etc/stunnel/stunnel.pem generated. But the "make tmprsadh" always failed. Got "make: *** No rule to make target `tmprsadh'. Stop. Any idea? Thanks!

Hi Bill, Thanks Bill. I finally re-do every patch step-by-step and the problem solved. Guess that I might have conducted some stupid errors. BTW, I noted that mfcheck is not included in latest toaster. Is it because it has been replaced by spf or other reason? -- Best regards, YM

Hi Bill, Thanks Bill. How do I block my users to put <> or invalid From: address in their outgoing emails? Using /var/qmail/control/badmailfrom or ? Secondly, what is the effect of SPF to end users?

[toaster] use of /var/qmail/spam ?
Hi Bill., What is the purpose of /var/qmail/spam directory? I saw it in the toaster: chown -R vpopmail:vchkpw /var/qmail/spam but never see any place else. -- Best regards, YM

Another is to force SMTP Auth.. It doesn't fix the bad From: address, but it will tag the email with an authoritative header on who sent it.. :) Secondly, what is the effect of SPF to end users? SPF ... Well, in a nutshell, when you are checking SPF with the default setting (a 3 in spfbehavior), it will look for an SPF record for the domain in the From: header. If there is none, the mail is passed on as if nothing happened. If there is a record, then one of two things happens. If the record indicates that the email could have originated from the mailserver that's sending it, it's passed on as normal. If the record indicates that the sending mailserver is not allowed to send mail for that domain, then it rejects the mail. So, in essence, it will only affect the end user if they are trying to receive mail from someone who is incorrectly sending the mail from a non-authoritative server. There is no effect on sending mail, unless you have published an SPF record for your domain. I suggest checking out http://spf.pobox.com for more detailed information. Personally I think SPF is nice and will help, assuming the majority of mailservers publish SPF records... -- --- Jason 'XenoPhage' Frisvold Engine / Technology Programmer [EMAIL PROTECTED] RedHat Certified - RHCE # 803004140609871 MySQL Pro Certified - ID# 207171862 MySQL Core Certified - ID# 205982910 --- "Something mysterious is formed, born in the silent void.

[toaster] OT simscan and kaspersky
Hi, I know that is a bit OT but maybe someone here can tell me if it's possible to use kaspersky antivirus with simscan? At the moment i use qmail-scanner. But i found the simscan can scan per domain and that will help me much. regards rene
