[vchkpw] fetchmail and maildrop to a vpopmail account

I'm struggling finding a "howto" on a particular issue: I have a webmail/pop3 account, no IMAP. I do not run that server and only have user privs on the email account. I want to do a ONE-TIME conversion to pull the 400+ messages from this account using fetchmail (or whatever you recommend) for d

[vchkpw] Howto reject invalid recipients AFTER SMTPD receipt of msg?

I want to reject incoming email to invalid users AFTER accepting the email by SMTPd. Where can I insert a small bash script to check valid users against VPOPMAIL MYSQL DB before allowing SPAMD, CLAMAV, qmail-inject, etc. to run??? Vpopmail 5.4.5, Mysql 3.23.54. Also, I'm aware of Tonix's patch to

[vchkpw] CHKUSER 2.0.8b - banning IPs into tcp.smtp

CHKUSER 2.0.8b on qmail 1.03 and vpopmail 5.4.10. I LOVE that CHKUSER can single out the unknown recipients and block the offending SMTP session - big traffic control helper! However, I've got one domain that's really being hit hard by dictionary attacks. Some attack traffic is a few hits from m

[vchkpw] How expensive is reloading the tcp.smtp.cdb?

Related to my earlier post, how expensive is it - resource-wise - to reload a tcp.smtp file of 100-1000 lines? If I have processing that is updating tcp.smtp every 5-10 minutes and I choose to reload the cdb from that tcp.smtp, is that a bad idea? The "qmailctl cdb" command runs very fast for me

I wanted to announce a little script project I'm starting called 'bantcp'. I got frustrated by a dictionary attack on one of my domains. Tonix' CHKUSER patch did it's job in repelling the offending IPs (who were not already RBLd) but I wanted more. I wanted a (semi-)automated way to extract the

I had a case where a single destination SMTP MX server was denying my send request from what appeared to be an IP range-based RBL blacklist. Nobody elses MXs levered that blacklist, so I only had the one problem delivery. I was able to mockup a gateway on another server of mine in another IP bloc

Re: [vchkpw] Problem compiling courier-auth 0.59.3+

Some very smart person - I'm REALLY sorry I cannot easily find the link to give proper credit - posted this patch "out there" a few weeks ago. I don't think it's become mainstream yet, but I literally just went through the same problem with authlib 0.59.3 and vpopmail 5.4.17. Yes, the patch work

Crud, NO that is not the correct link for what I thought was the patch source. OK, I found it! It's in French, that's why it's kinda hard to find. You can run this page through Babelfish and get something readable, but the patch originated from this page http://christian.caleca.free.fr/qmail/cou

[vchkpw] OT: Webmail trends for vpopmail/qmail/IMAP

Off-topic, perhaps respond off-list? What are the hot applications in F/OSS webmail that start to move towards AJAX clients (yahoo! mail beta, gmail) that might function well on a vpopmail/qmail/IMAP infrastructure? I looked at Sourceforge and didn't see much that would leap past squirrelmail.
