At least more than one a month. Well lets make it a rule of tumb, only put out releases every 3 months or so...

Re: [vchkpw] skel
hmm well this patch was bad, cause it had some text-wrapping... I fixed that... but still that patch doesn't work with the latest devel of vpopmail Does anyone have a working one with 5.3.29? > It's a good feature, but not ready for the release version of vpopmail. I think I'm gonna have to dissagree, thats exactly what many ppl are looking for in a new stable release, some new useful feautres, and this feautre is good for anti-spam, anti-virus setup's > It makes use of a system call to copy the files. > > I emailed the original author with code to handle the copying within > vpopmail. If that gets integrated, replacing the system call to cp, > then I'll consider adding it. David Winkler would you fix that Tom just said if you by any chance are reading this or anyone else that got the times and knowdlege to do it? And seriously, I'm not a coder, but I think like this, the code is probibly(I would think) applied to the vadduser part of the code? So that would mean you must be either vpopmail or root to run it,, hence it isn't suid.. So if a "intruder" would get access as root or vpopmail user they wouldn't use some vadduser binary to "insecure" your system...?? Or just maybe someone would be able in some difficult way thru qmailadmin be able to haxx0r your system just cause of the vadduser code is using system?? I think it's safe enough.. I don't know about this for sure, but for me it sounds pretty hard??? /Raboo

Who will be our saviour and take on the task to make the patch secure and worthy to be a part of vpopmail future releases ( P.S. sorry Nick if you've recived the message twice I pressed the wrong reply button at first )
Re: [vchkpw] spamassassin patch ready ahead of schedule
what does the patch do exactly?? calls spamc uppon mailcheck?
Re: [vchkpw] spamassassin patch ready ahead of schedule
is this a feature that will be added to vpopmail permantly?? if not now it should be in contrib on the stable i think
[vchkpw] courier 2 binc
I've made a small script that will copy the courier imap subscribed folders list to binc-style... I actually made this for qmail+vpopmail+imap... I don't know how other MTA's work, but this script should work for vpopmail+qmail users. So here you go. http://qmail.nu/files/courier-2-binc.sh
Re: [vchkpw] clamav in .qmail-default
you could pipe it to scanmail.sh http://www.qmail.nu/files/scanmail.sh.gz (sorry andy if you got this message twice) On 2004-01-31 16:52, Andy BIERLAIR wrote: Hi, is it possible to use clamav as a pipe in .qmail-default and not with qmail-scanner.pl.

how come ppl don't start new threads when creating mails?? or is my mail client broken? /Raboo
Re: [vchkpw] OFFTOPIC! how come ppl don't start new threads when creating mails??
Looks like you as well need to not start threads in the middle of an old one. It proves my point better. even this mailinglist a martyr.

Re: [vchkpw] vqadmin silly question?

What if I want to set it unlimited? try 0 or leave it empty I think both ways should work
Re: [vchkpw] Change passwd howto
You should mail your patch to this list and also squirrrelmail, it could be a usefull thing to have in the contrib dir On 2004-05-30 17:17, Rakesh Tiwari wrote: I use MySQL as my backend. I hacked squirrelmail to add a page that takes in the username ( from session ) and asks for the current password and new password. Then using SQL is check is the current password matches. If so update the new passwords in the database. else prompt him again. Hope this helps. Regards Rakesh
