[toaster] Enabling vpopmail clear-text passwords
To get CRAM-MD5 work in my qmail setup, I'd like to recompile vpopmail with clear-text passwords enabled. Does anyone know, whether this breaks the current vpasswd files? Or is qmailtoaster smart enough to use the encrypted passwords, if it doesn't find the clear-text passwords, which obviously only exist for accounts, that have their passwords reset after the recompile. Furthermore, I have to to recompile Courier and qmail-smptd as well after the vpopmail recompile, right? Anything else that needs a recompile? Thanks Pete

Re: [toaster] How do you get qmailmrtg7 to generate spam stats
OK - I was dumb. I never followed the Toaster instructions for that part of the mailserver preferring instead to control Spamassassin via /etc/init.d. How do you stop/start/restart spamd when controlled with the daemontools?

[toaster] Bounced email question
Can someone help me understand what happens here? I get bounced messages some times from users (including myself some times) where the bounced message says that the user address is unknown. However, the user address listed is not an address that any mail was sent to. I have done virus scans, spyware scans, etc. and find nothing. I have searched the qmail logs and never find a message that was sent to the listed user. I have searched the qmail logs for the Message-ID and only find it in the mail that is correctly addressed to the real people the original message was sent to (not the listed person in the bounce) I assume something really is sending a message to this bogus user? How can I track this down and correct it? I'm concerned that somehow my server or my clients are truly sending email to unknown places due to some type of virus, spyware, or other error and would like to know how to track these down. Is it maybe something on the receiving end pc? I've been using the toaster for several years and really like it, thanks Bill for all the good work!! Here is an example of the type of bounce referred to. There is no evidence that my client or my server ever sent anything to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" (real addresses changed to protect the innocent or the guilty as the case may be) or the ip address listed for this user. Hi. This is the qmail-send program at mail.company. I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses. This is a permanent error; I've given up.

If so, you could be getting the non-delivery notice because the message was forwarded to a bad address. If you look at the bottom Received line, it would appear that [EMAIL PROTECTED] connected from IP xx.xxx.xxx.xx with SMTP authentication in order to send the email. Does [EMAIL PROTECTED] have a simple password? Where is the IP address that made the connection? Could a spammer be relaying mail through your server by guessing the account password? -- Tom Collins [EMAIL PROTECTED]
