[vchkpw] Normal user delivering
I would like some domains email be delivered in the normal "qmail-scenario". If I put the following in virtualdomains: test.egp.cx:eric I want it to be delivered to /home/eric and use the .qmail files there. Cant this be done once you replaced qmail-local? Any tips/help would be appreciated. //eric

Also check the /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts and morercpthosts Then check /var/qmail/users/assign for the domain. Then check the /home/vpopmail/domains directory for the domain. It should be in all of those places. If not, you'll need to delete them by hand by removing it from each of those places plus deleteing it from the database. Ken Jones
Re: [vchkpw] tcpserver mysql patch
the vchkpw program updates the tcp.smtp.cdb file. So you'll need to reconfigure vpopmail without roaming-users (the default is roaming users turned off).

[vchkpw] Restrict amount of vchkpw authentications
Hi I've got vpopmail 5.2.1 on top of qmail 1.03 on a Solaris 2.7 SPARC machine. Everything is going well. I've noticed, though, that several of my users are abusing my pop3 service, that is, that they are popping their email every minute, 24 hours a day. this has not become a problem for my mail server performance as of yet, but i'm being pro active. It is clearly stated in my aup that checking your mail more than once every 5 minutes is unacceptable, and that once (or less than) every 10 minutes is preferred. I'm wondering if anybody has implemented a method of making vchkpw only allow one authentication per user per 5 minutes.. I'm looking for something that will not silently deny their connection, but something that will actually make their mail client do something like pop up a message, or pop up a username and password window.. just so that the client knows that he's doing something wrong. --- Jeremy Kister www.jeremykister.com PGP: http://www.jeremykister.com/jeremy/public_key.asc ---
Re: [vchkpw] Restrict amount of vchkpw authentications
You might be best off hacking up your popd to achieve this. Have it look at last login time and spit out an "-ERR You are popping too often see http://blahblahblah";. Some clients will show this others won't. As a shortcut you could pull some existing data out of mysql and send a nagging email to the abusers...

[vchkpw] Limit local user's e-mail
Does anyone know if there's an easy way to deny SOME users the right to e-mail outside our organization? For example, let's say I have three users: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] I would like user1 and user2 to be able to e-mail anyone over the Internet. But I'd like to restrict user3 to ONLY be able to e-mail those people in his domain, meaning, he can only e-mail user1 and user2. How does one go about setting this up? Thanks, Jer

Re: [vchkpw] Limit local user's e-mail
You might want to take a look at maildrop. Per user configurable and has regex rules for delivery.

Re: [vchkpw] Restrict amount of vchkpw authentications
I don't think there is anything in POP that makes the client pop a warning. Cheapest way is to write something that reads the log file and mail warnings or do your desired actions to offenders.
