[vchkpw] Wrong reply-to in SqWebMail for virt domains

[gjohnson]

Hi.

I have vpopmail, courier-imap and sqwebmail running on OpenBSD 3.3 with
apache NOT chrooted.

I have two domains: real.domain and virtual.domain
In SqWebMail, virtuser with virtual.domain logs on to SqWebMail thus
virtuser%virtual.domain & pass
But once logged on they see themselves as
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
which also appears as their reply-to address (until/unless they change it).
Naturally, many will not change it.

Real users see [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- so they are fine.
I would just like virtusers to see [EMAIL PROTECTED] both at the top
of the page and for their reply-to.  Is this possible?  If so, how do I
change the virt.domain setting?

[vchkpw] vppopmail 5.3 stable?

[Sverre Nilsen]

I've been trying to get vpopmail to work with spamassassin and I have now
set it up right. But I have problems with the vpopmail forking issue
making hundres of copies of catched spam. I'm currently running vpopmail
5.2.1 and I understand this bug is fixed in 5.3.

However I'm having strong doubts about running development software as
this is a production server hosting somewhat 500 domains.

So my question is do you have any estimate on when 5.3 will become stable?
Or is there a patch to fix this in 5.2.1?

[vchkpw] SMTP is too slow

[Nasib Salim]

Dear all,

   I'm running Qmail with vpopmail and qmail-scanner. For the past 2 years 
there were no problem but recently the problem starts. 

  SMTP Server is too slow to respond. it takes more than a minute for it to 
response.  My DNS is working fine and there is no problem even resolving the 
mail server. I know the DNS is the source is this problem but seems its not.

 Please help!

Re: [vchkpw] SMTP is too slow

[Ahmad Masood Shah]

for SMTP slow responce problem can be in may things and dns is one of them..
I will suggest better to check ..
1> vmstat 2 5 (check swap mem etcc)
2> check your LAN (Network load)
3> if hard disk IDE check that can be loaded with bad sectors.
4> check inode vie df 0i

Re: [vchkpw] SMTP is too slow

Hi Nasib,

a personal question because I'm having kinda same problem.
Do you have a DMZ?
Do you have internal dns and public dns?
I have a problem like yours but only from my internal net. Clients from 
the "outer world" dont have any problem, inside hosts have timeouts.

Re: [vchkpw] SMTP is too slow

[Kit Halsted]

I could be wrong here, but both of these sound like reverse-DNS
problems to me. Check that reverse-DNS (IP to name, rather than name
to IP) is correctly set up & see if that doesn't make the problem go
away. (Apologies if I'm wrong here, suffering from long-term
sleep-dep...)

Are you using inetd or tcpserver?  And is there any NAT between the smtp

Hi,
tcpserver (last release)
NAT only at the FW, routing to the inside net. Kinda like this

Re: [vchkpw] Wrong reply-to in SqWebMail for virt domains

[Kiril Todorov]

That's controlled from the sqwebmail-config file, which is in the user's 
Maildir/.
Find attached a small patch written by Peter Penchev <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> which creates 
that file in usercreate time with the proper FROM: setting there.

I think the patch was designed for vpopmail-5.3.20, not sure if it will need adjusting 
for different versions.
Hope that helps!

Re: [vchkpw] SMTP is too slow

[tonix (Antonio Nati)]

Did you add "-H -l yourlocalname" to your tcpserver?

It avoids consulting DNS for changing IP to names. When it looks for not 
existent names, or when yout DNS server is working bad, you have huge delays.

If you have a private address as sender or receiver, no public DNS will be 
able to traslate it.

Im assuming you're using vpopmail, yes?

If so, add your default domain using vadddomain, add all your default

Hi.

I have vpopmail, courier-imap and sqwebmail running on OpenBSD 3.3 with
apache NOT chrooted.
I have two domains: real.domain and virtual.domain
In SqWebMail, virtuser with virtual.domain logs on to SqWebMail thus
virtuser%virtual.domain & pass
But once logged on they see themselves as
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
which also appears as their reply-to address (until/unless they change it).
Naturally, many will not change it.
Real users see [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- so they are fine.
I would just like virtusers to see [EMAIL PROTECTED] both at the top
of the page and for their reply-to.  Is this possible?  If so, how do I
change the virt.domain setting?
Set the sqwebmail prefs for the user when you create the account. They 
include the Reply-To address.

Re: [vchkpw] vdeluser and 'User does not exist'

[vol]

vpopmail recognizes and uses morercpthosts, I just
neglected to consider the fact that you might have more
than 50 domains :)
This certianly is an interesting issue.  I'd recommend
doing an strace on the vdeluser command.  If you'd like,
paste the results into a message to the list.  I'd like
to see what's causing the problem.
Thanks!

[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
Well, the majority of the vpopmail API checks things
in the same order qmail does.  vmoduser may be one of
the few exceptions.
/var/qmail/control/rcpthosts
/var/qmail/users/cdb
/path/to/domain/vpasswd.cdb (or other authentication mechanism)
Be sure the domain and user exist in the first two
qmail files.  /var/qmail/users/cdb is compiled from
/var/qmail/users/assign.  Im willing to bet there is
an issue with the domain these users are on existing
in the right places in the qmail configurations.


Nope. These files are exactly as they should be. The domain in question
exists in /var/qmail/control/morercpthosts and
/var/qmail/control/morercpthosts.cdb is up to date.
Of course, vpasswd might totally not expect morercpthosts. Strangely
though, vadddomain adds new domains to this file, even though it's
actually larger than rcpthosts(?).
Mail delivery is fine and dandy though. Mail is getting through to a user
that I can't delete or change the password for, and vdominfo displays the
right information for the user.
So if this is because the api is acting strange for vpasswd, prehaps it
needs to recognize the possible extra file
/var/qmail/control/morercpthosts.

Re: [vchkpw] vpopmail with mysql support

Hi, Zafar.

Try the latest development release of vpopmail.
As you can see below, it's stating there is a
syntax error in the header file.  This could be
a result of your system, or the older version
of vpopmail.  If you get the latest development
release and this occurs, make sure you have the
latest MySQL-devel, and latest MySQL installed,
and that you're running the latest stable GNU
compiler.
Hope that helps!

no error of any kind of info in logs.

I allready changed the connection on the switch, I had a VLAN where 
connected the eth of the mail server to the internal network hub, to the

release it last Friday, but it doesn't show up on 
.

Once vpopmail has been declared stable (or at least more stable than 
5.2.1), we'll be able to release qmailadmin as stable.

[vchkpw] Problem adding domains as non-root

[Juan Alonso]

Hello List,

I have got a problem with Vpopmail 5.3.20 and adding domains as the 
vpopuser.

Ive got a half-working installation of qmail + vpopmail (with mysql auth 
and custom user&group). I can send & receive emails but I can only add 
domains as root. Whenever I try to add one as user "gea" (the user I 
configured vpopmail as) I get the following error:

	Error: Domain does not exist

I have investigated in the source code and I think the problem lies here:

The last thing vadddomain does before aborting is checking if the table 
vpopmail exists no the db. Next thing (as I see from the attached 
strace) which throws an error is unknown to me.

Thank you in advance for any help,

PS: I have attached an strace done with
"strace /var/gea/services/mail/bin/vadddomain mydomain5.com lalala"

Re: [vchkpw] Problem adding domains as non-root

[Juan Alonso]

Ok, I forgot the strace and the vpopmail configure line, excuse me. The 
problem got inside my brain and I don't act clearly now.

The configure line for vpopmail was:

./configure  --enable-roaming-users=y 
--enable-tcpserver-file=/etc/tcp.smtp --enable-md5-passwords=y 
--enable-auth-logging=y --enable-mysql-logging=y --enable-clear-passwd=y 
--enable-libdir=/usr/lib --enable-mysql=y --enable-valias=y 
--enable-vpopuser=gea --enable-vpopgroup=dev

Re: [vchkpw] Problem adding domains as non-root

[vol]

You must add domains as root.   To add a domain,
vpopmail must access qmail's configuration files
and send signals to the qmail process.  Therefore,
you must be root in order to add domains.

[vchkpw] Password Changing via PHP (w/o vpopmail extensions?)

[Jeremy Oddo]

Hey all--

I have recently installed a test system with Horde/IMP.  I'd like to use
the password change feature under Horde (sork/passwd).  The difficulty I'm
having is with the vpopmail+MySQL encryption.

Am I right in believing that the vpopmail+MySQL user passwords are
encrypted using MD5?  If not, what encryption method is vpopmail using and
can it be changed to a different method?

Here's the rub; if it *is* using MD5, then I'll have to recompile PHP to
include the mhash() function.  Currently, I'm using the PHP RHM from the
RH9 distro CD which includes all sorts of goodies.  If I have to recompile
PHP, I'll have to download a lot of source to add in all the functionality
that currently comes with the RPM version of PHP.  Big mess!

Anyone have any info/help/tips/warnings/fears/etc?

Thanks!
Jeremy

Re: [vchkpw] SMTP is too slow

[Paul Fletcher]

Well with thopse tcpserver flags so far as I can see there should be no DNS
lookups going on at all, so I don't think you can blame the DNS server...
Someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

I have had this problem when not using -H and/or not using -R on a very
busy server where there is NAT between the mail server and the DNS server;
if you have UDP packets being natted for DNS lookups and there are lots of
them it can eat up all the nat table entries, and then you can't get
connected until entries get aged out.

Is it slow to actually connect, or slow to respond once you are connected?

I noticed that vpopmail in current versions uses a different encryption
method, so I called it: 'crypt-md5'. It uses a 'salt' with 8 chars,
starting with prefix '$1$'.

Re: [vchkpw] SMTP is too slow

[nasib]

I'm using tcpserver and there is no NAT between the smtp server and its dns 
resolver.
  
 I also tried to run the dns in the same smtp server but it didnt help.

Interesting thing is that when I reboot the smtp server, its works fine for a 
few minutes and then it start over again.

  So  I failed to get glues whether it is dns or something else.

[vchkpw] Re: SMTP is too slow

[Sérgio Manuel Rosa]

When internal clients try to send mail sometimes they get timeout, I 
bellieve that in this case it's when client connect to server, other times 
if a mail got attachs it starts to send... at least it's what Outlook says, 
and it takes an eternity (a mail with 1Mg taking 3 hours to leave outbox 
:-/) to deliver the mail to the server. After the messages reaches the 
server it's dispatched in a question of seconds... 

I'm completly over this issue but can't find a reason for this to hapen.

Thanks.  I presume I can apply this patch as I did those for qmail:

Re: [vchkpw] Re: SMTP is too slow

[Paul Theodoropoulos]

other things to look for:

excessive collisions on the ethernet (unlikely)

Denial of Service attack in progress, look for lots of connections to the 
server that are doing "nothing"

what is the IP address/name of the MX in question?

what are your concurrencylocal and concurrencyremote settings in 
/var/qmail/control?

do you have any values set in timeoutremote and timeoutsmtpd?

just a few additional ideas off the top of my head

Thanks for your reply.  I am working with sqwebmail-3_5_1, vpopmail-5_2_1,
and vqadmin-2_3_2.
When I create an account thus --
su - vpopmail
vadduser [EMAIL PROTECTED] password
exit
 -- I see no option for sqwebmail prefs.  I can not change reply-to with
vqadmin either.  Neither do I see any reply-to or "name-at-the-top" option
in the actual SqWebMail webpage itself.  Only when I send a mail from
the account in SqWebMail can I (permanently) change the reply-to address
(by simply changing the reply-to on that email).

What SqWebMail prefs were you referring to?  Can they be applied
domain-wide, or do I have to go to each virtual user after set up and
change
individually?

Check a user account that you have logged into with sqwebmail. There 
should be a sqwebmail-prefs file there that is a plain text file. You 
can generate this file automatically with the correct preferences at the 
time you create the user. Make a script to fill this file in, and run it 
after you create the user.

I have an elaborate wrapper system that sets up various aspects of each 
user after they get added, including setting initial sqwebmail prefs, 
creating extra folders, setting up Maildrop recipes, and some other fun 
stuff. You might consider creating the same sort of wrapper around 
vadduser so this becomes automatic to you.

Cheers!

I prefer to create wrappers around vpopmail commands instead of patching 
the source like this. That makes it easier to upgrade when the time 
comes, and I know exactly what's going on with my modifications.

Either way will work, I was just suggesting my preferredway.

Yeah. A mildly humorous exchange.
So, I understand your approach, and it appears to work.
I am still puzzled by the bizarre "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" at the
top of the SqWebMail page.

Re: [vchkpw] Wrong reply-to in SqWebMail for virt domains

[gjohnson]

So, I found the sqwebmail-config file and can edit it by hand.
Unfortunately, the patch fails on half of the files that it is supposed to
patch, with lines like this,
"Patching file vchkpw.c using Plan A...
Hunk #1 failed at 377."

This issue now appears to me as a SqWebMail bug, and I will report it as
such.

[vchkpw] SqWebMail bug: bizarre virtual domain behavior

[gjohnson]

I have an OpenBSD 3.3 box running (apache NOT chrooted)
vpopmail-5_2_1, courier-imap-1_7_1, and sqwebmail-3_5_1
vpopmail was configured with
--enable-defaultquota=500S \
--enable-clear-passwd=n \
--enable-default-domain=real.domain

When I log in to SqWebMail using realuser%real.domain
everything looks good.  I see the top of the webpage
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
The reply-to address is <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>


BUG:
When I log in to SqWebMail using virtuser%virt.domain
I see at the top of the webpage
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

The reply-to address is also <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
and must be manually changed on a user-by-user basis.

I can not change the bizarre "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
at the top of the webpage.

[vchkpw] Over quota message to recipient

[webmaster]

Assuming that we can truncate the bounced message to a certain size, it
would 
be useful to notify the recipient as well as the sender about e-mail
account 
being over quota.

Any pointers on how to accomplish this ?

Thanks.

[vchkpw] MySQL Optimization.

[vchkpw] SqWebMail bug: bizarre virtual domain behavior (fwd)

[gjohnson]

That did it!  Logging on as "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" gave 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] both at the top and as the reply-to.

I too use Squirrelmail along with vmailmgr and omail-admin.
Squirrelmail is a script (php) whereas SqWebMail is cgi.  So, SqWebMail
runs at least ~6 times faster -- even with less memory.

Specifically, on a 486-66 with 48MB of memory, Squirrelmail 1.2.11
(with no plug-ins) takes ~29 sec to load the page after log on.
With 32MB it takes ~50sec.  In contrast, with merely 16MB (!),
SqWebMail loads the first page in ~2-5sec.  An astonishing difference.

[vchkpw] error: segmentation fault and unable to chdir vpopmail/users directory

[lixiang]

hi,all:
    i have installed 
vpopmail-5.2.1,qmail-1.0.3, qmail-ldap, openldap-2.0.27, qmailadmin-1.0.6 in my 
Redhat 7.3 box.
    sth seems strange:
 
    all the work was finished by root 
user.
    when i added the first domain xxx.com 
,succeed。 then i added the users through qmailadmin, qmailadmin reported: xxx 
could not be added. but actually, this user has been added to the 
system.
if i added  user through  
vadduser in command line, it reported: Error: Unable to chdir vpopmail/users 
directory, and the user actually was not be added.
    if i added another domain through 
vadddomain, it reported: segmentation  fault. but the domain  has been 
added.  then i deleted this domain through vdeldomain, succeed. and then i 
added this domain through  vadddomain again, it reported : Unable to chdir 
to vpopmail/users directory. and the domain still has been added. but if i want 
to  manager this domain through qmailadmin, i couldn't login. then i 
repeated the del and add this domain, it always repeat this fact.
 
    i am so confused about these facts, and i 
have read the README.ldap and INSTALL and FAQ, i also have read the  
archive in the vpopmail website. get no solution ,and the response from the 
archive is slow. so i seek for help in the mailinglist. another question, i find 
that there are many  combinations of vpopmail+mysql,  but the 
combination of vpopmail+ldap is few. has anyone succeed for this combination 
?
 
   thanks a lot .

Re: [vchkpw] Wrong reply-to in SqWebMail for virt domains

[Kiril Todorov]

That thingie can be controlled easier if you create the logindomainlist file in the 
sqwebmail directory,
just put the virt domains you want to be browsable trough sqwebmail there - one per 
line

not sure if it will fix your problem thou, first time I see such weird behaviour.

Re: [vchkpw] error: segmentation fault and unable to chdir vpopmail/users directory

[Jens Jahr]

Zitat von lixiang <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

Hi lixiang,

> i have installed vpopmail-5.2.1,qmail-1.0.3, qmail-ldap, openldap-2.0.27,
> qmailadmin-1.0.6 in my Redhat 7.3 box.

Please do not mix qmail-ldap and vpopmail-ldap. These are totally different 
programms that both try to do the same. !!

I 'll give you a short step by step way to use vpopmail-ldap:


1) Edit qmailUser.schema

--- snip
attributetype ( 1.3.6.1.4.1.8868.3.1.2
NAME 'qmailGID'
DESC 'qmail group id'
EQUALITY caseIgnoreIA5Match
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.26{100}
SINGLE-VALUE )

attributetype ( 1.3.6.1.4.1.8868.3.1.3
NAME 'qmailUID'
DESC 'qmail userid'
EQUALITY caseIgnoreIA5Match
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.26{100}
SINGLE-VALUE )

attributetype ( 1.3.6.1.4.1.8868.3.1.4
NAME 'qmaildomain'
DESC 'qmail Domain'
EQUALITY caseIgnoreIA5Match
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.26{100}
SINGLE-VALUE )
attributetype ( 1.3.6.1.4.1.8868.3.1.6
NAME 'mailQuota'
DESC 'qmail quota'
EQUALITY caseIgnoreIA5Match
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.26{100}
SINGLE-VALUE )
attributetype ( 1.3.6.1.4.1.8868.3.1.7
NAME 'mailMessageStore'
DESC 'qmail Store'
EQUALITY caseIgnoreIA5Match
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.26{100}
SINGLE-VALUE )

attributetype ( 1.3.6.1.4.1.8868.3.1.8
NAME 'clearPassword'
DESC 'qmail Clear Password for APOP'
EQUALITY octetStringMatch
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.40{128}
SINGLE-VALUE )

objectclass ( 1.3.6.1.4.1.8868.3.1
NAME 'qmailUser'
DESC 'qmail local mail recipient'
SUP ( top $ person $ organizationalPerson )
MAY ( qmailGID $ qmailUID $ qmaildomain $
mailQuota $ mailMessageStore $ clearPassword $
uid $ name $ sn $ cn ) )

--- snap

2) Modify the definition of  "person" in core.schema to :

--- snip

 objectclass ( 2.5.6.6 NAME 'person'
 DESC 'RFC2256: a person'
 SUP top STRUCTURAL
 MAY ( sn $ cn $ userPassword $ telephoneNumber $ seeAlso $ description 
 $ mail $
 workphonenumber $ cellphonenumber $ postalAddress $
 title $ telexNumber $street $givenName $registeredAddress 
 $cellphone) )
 
--- snap
 



3) Edit vldap.h

vldap.h

--- snip

#define VLDAP_SERVER "localhost"
#define VLDAP_PORT LDAP_PORT
#define VLDAP_USER "cn=root,dc=xx,dc=net"
#define VLDAP_PASSWORD "xx"
#define MAX_BUFF 500

#define VLDAP_BASEDN "ou=people,dc=xxx,dc=net"

--- snap


4) Recompile vpopmail --with-ldap
Do not use both mysql and ldap !!!


5)
Setup slapd.conf 

slapd.conf
snip
include   /vmail/etc/openldap/schema/core.schema
include   /vmail/etc/openldap/schema/qmailUser.schema
..
access to attr=userPassword
   by  *  auth

database  bdb
suffix "dc=xxx,dc=cn"
rootdn "dc=admin,dc=,dc=net"
rootpwsecret
directory /var/openldap
index  objectclass   pres,eq
index  cn,sn,uid  eq,


6)
Start slapd

7)

Edit dn.ldif
snip
dn: dc=xxx,dc=net
objectclass: organization
o: ynst

dn:ou=people,dc=,dc=cn
objectclass: organizationalUnit
ou:people
snip

8) Add base DN
-
ldapadd -x -w admin -D 'cn=admin,dc=,dc=cn' -f  /tmp/dn.ldif
   adding new entry  "dc=,dc=cn"

   adding new entry "ou=people,dc=,dc=cn"
--

9) Test it 
ldapsearch -x -w admin -D 'cn=admin,dc=,dc=cn' -b 'dc=,dc=cn'

10)

Now you should be able to add domains and users using either qmailadmin oder 
commandline.


Note: LDAP support does work !!! And is stable !!! 
Some patches from me are still not included for any reason I do not know, so if 
you have any problems feel free to ask !!! I will do my best ;-)

On first glance this looks a little bit tricky, but when you go ahead living 
with LDAP all steps are getting more and more reasonable to you. After you have 
discovered the advantages of LDAP you do not want to miss it anymore, I 
promise ;-))

And if any error still occur please send the LDAP error message. I included 
this into vldap.c to have much more debugging informations.

Best regards Jens
