maybe vpopmail has a bug ?
the environments: redhat7.0 + qmail-1.0.3 + vpopmail-4.9.10 + ucspi-tcp-0.88 + daemontools-0.70. after I intalled qmail1.0.3, there was no problem for sending and receiving email. then continue installing vpopmail,the whole steps in detail look like below: 1,./configure --enable-romaming-user=y --enable-default-domain=mydomain.com --enable-ucspi-dir=../ucspi-tcp-0.88; 2, make; make install-strip; 3, ./vadddomain mydomain; 4, ./vadduser myuser; 5, replace the entry checkpassword in the file /service/qmail-pop3d/run with vchkpw; the files concerned will look like below: the file /var/qmail/control/me: mail.mydomain.net the file /var/qmail/control/locals: localhost mail.mydomain.net the file /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts: localhost mail.mydomain.net mydomain.net the file /var/qmail/control/virtualdomains: mydomain.net the file /var/qmail/control/defaultdomain: mydomain.net the file /var/qmail/user/assign: +testdomain.net-:testdomain.net:501:508:/home/vpopmail/domains/testdomain.net:-:: . the file /etc/tcp.smtp: 127.0.0.:allow,RELAYCLIENT='' 129.0.0.:allow,RELAYCLIENT='' 63.108.64.5:allow,RELAYCLIENT='' :allow nothing for /var/qmail/control/plusdomain; (the user vpopmail and group vchkpw have been created before installing vpopmail) then test the pop3d service with vchkpw from the address 129.0.10.15: telnet mail.mydomain.net 110 trying 129.0.10.18... connected to 129.0.10.18. Escape character is '^]'. +ok<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> user testuser +ok pass 123 -ERR authorization failed Connection closed by foreign host. (the result was same as test launched at mail server itself) if I test the pop3d service with checkpassword from the address 129.0.10.15: telnet mail.mydomain.net 110 trying 129.0.10.18... connected to 129.0.10.18. Escape character is '^]'. +ok<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> user testuser +ok pass 123 +ok if I send email from somewhere to [EMAIL PROTECTED], the email can be delived to the directory correctly: /home/vpopmail/domains/mydomain.net/testuser/Maildir/new; now, my big problem is pop3d with the vchkpw. I don't know where I made a mistake with the vpopmail, sometimes I even thought maybe vpopmail has a bug ? I'm eager for some expert's answer, thanks a lot. hopefully lawy
Autocreation
The autocreation of maildirs based on SQL data seems to be broken again? I've tried both with a NULL and empty value in the pw_dir field. --- ChangeLog --- - vchkpw will autocreate a user directory if thier path value in the authentication structure is empty. Sep 21 - autocreation of directories would cause vdelivermail to core dump if pop account does not exist Sep 20 - updates to FAQ file 4.9.3 Sep 18 - fix up vclose is_open login in vmysql.c vsybase.c voracle.c - vdelivermail will auto create a users directory if thier directory value in thier authentication structure is blank. This can be used by sql based systems, or ldap systems. Users can be created and inserted into the database, and if their path value is left blank, vpopmail will use the bigdir directory layout algorythm to create a directory and update the authentication database. So, users can be created by just adding them to the database and leaving thier directory path blank. - -- IDG New MediaEinar Bordewich Development Manager Phone: +47 2336 1420 E-Mail: eibo(at)newmedia.no Lat: 59.91144 N Lon: 10.76097 E
Using qmail for archiving mail
Is it possible to implement archiving of all or selected (based on To: or other fields) mail passing through qmail box? Most of the mail isn't delivered locally (qmail acts as relay for internal network). I can catch mail for particular address by adding its domain to rcpthosts, defining user in virtualdomains for this e-mail address and creating .qmail- file in /var/qmail/alias. But using this way I'm only able to forward all mail for this e-mail to different account, not to have a copy of all email for this external address (and still have this mail delivering). Any suggestions?
Re: Autocreation
Ignore. I had a NULL value in the pw_gecos field which vpopmail obvius did'nt like, ending session with a "-ERR aack, child crashed". Seems to work as expected. -- IDG New MediaEinar Bordewich Development Manager Phone: +47 2336 1420 E-Mail: eibo(at)newmedia.no Lat: 59.91144 N Lon: 10.76097 E - Original Message - From: "Einar Bordewich" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, September 05, 2001 12:52 PM Subject: Autocreation > The autocreation of maildirs based on SQL data seems to be broken again? > I've tried both with a NULL and empty value in the pw_dir field. > > --- ChangeLog --- >- vchkpw will autocreate a user directory if thier path value > in the authentication structure is empty. > > Sep 21 - autocreation of directories would cause vdelivermail to core > dump if pop account does not exist > > Sep 20 - updates to FAQ file > > 4.9.3 > > Sep 18 - fix up vclose is_open login in vmysql.c vsybase.c voracle.c > >- vdelivermail will auto create a users directory if thier > directory value in thier authentication structure is blank. > This can be used by sql based systems, or ldap systems. > Users can be created and inserted into the database, and > if their path value is left blank, vpopmail will use the > bigdir directory layout algorythm to create a directory > and update the authentication database.

open-smtp and tcp.smtp
Hi guys, I have configured vpopmail to allow roaming. I get the entries in the /home/vpopmail/etc/open-smtp and I have configured to use tcp.smtp (default to /etc) but that file never get updated. Here is the script I use for my qmail-smtp: #!/bin/sh QMAILDUID=`id -u qmaild` NOFILESGID=`id -g qmaild` MAXSMTPD=`cat /var/qmail/control/concurrencyincoming` exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 200 \ /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -H -R -v -p -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -c "$MAXSMTPD" \ -u "$QMAILDUID" -g "$NOFILESGID" 0 smtp rblsmtpd rblsmtpd -rrelays.mail-abuse.org /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd 2>&1 Thanks for your help.

where does the "netscape bug" problem actually fall
just curios.. my understanding is that the whole qmail, vpopmail, mysql conglomerate creates a "pop before smtp" authentication protocol, and netscape ignores this and tries to authenticate using smtp anyway, thus hitting an error since smtp isn't tied into the vchkpw in the mysql... is this generally the problem? latest versions >.30 seem to solve this by their description, is this the case or are we still without the ability to service netscape users? any hacks to remedy this?

No, this is not the problem. You are mixing apples and oranges, specifically: 1) smtp authentication before relay 2) pop authentication before relay The pop method is invisible to the Mail User Agent so Netscape has no problem with it. When you setup Netscape there is a way to type in your user name to send to the smtp server. If you do that, netscape assumes there is smtp authentication. If you do not type anything in for user/smtp server, then it does not try. If you want to use the pop method don't tell netscape to try the smtp authentication method. If you want to use smtp authentication then give netscape the smtp user name values. So it sounds like your problem is Netscape is not configured for what ever method you are trying to use. > > latest versions >.30 seem to solve this by their description, is this the case > or are we still without the ability to service netscape users? All the releases back to the first ones that supported roaming users has worked with netscape. I know because I used netscape as my MUA. All current releases also work. the current 5.0 pre release definitly works with smtp authentication. I know because I set one up last week and it worked fine. > > any hacks to remedy this? No hacks needed, you probably have something misconfigured, or it is some other, unrelated issue. ken
vpopmail 5.0pre1
Hello, We've installed vpopmail 5.0pre1 so that we have the possibility to add no password. However, adding a record with an empty password field returned an error since the table definition doesn't allow null values by default. We have changed this so that nulls for the password field can be added, so that we could succesfully add a new record. However we now receive the following error during logon: 'ERR aack, child crashed'. Do we need to specify a specific value for the password field, since it doesn't allow nulls by default? Normally, it should ask for a password when first authenticating via pop3 right? cheers, lao _ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp
