[vchkpw] disable_external_relay

Dear List Members, What does "disable_external_relay" do in the ".qmailadmin-limits" file? Can it be used to disable SMTP Relay even if I am using SMTP Authentication instead of POP-Before-SMTP? The install.txt says: *** quote *** You may disable these services: a) POP Access b)

Re: [vchkpw] disable_external_relay

No,it works only for pop-before-SMTP. I suggested to use it also for SMTP relay, but it wqas preferred to add a dedicated bit for SMTP relaying. So, you may also disable SMTP relay, but I don't know if you find the disable_smtp line working in the last vpopmail versions. I made the patch for ma

RE: [vchkpw] Problem with manually adding new domains

Yea but I also create those manually, (just forgot to mention that). So everything is there, assign, virtualhost, rctphosts and the directories. Also the .qmail-default is there containing the vdelivery stuff. Maybe I should add that if I use 'vadddomain', everything works perfectly. -Morten --

Henry, I too just started looking into it.. was the idea from this list?? Anyhow, what concerns me is the perl overhead for qpsmtpd, but I'm probably paying for that overhead by using SpamAssassin... There is a link for something that virtualizes a perl processor session to make the thing run like

[vchkpw] vpopmail with drbd / intermezzo

Hi List, our current qmail/vpopmail server gets a little unstable due to some raid problems, so i want to setup a 2-node failover cluster with qmail, vpopmail and imap. the plan is to use drbd to mirror /home via tcp/ip to the second node and to use heartbeat to do a failover if the primary fails.
