Hi,

I just upgraded vpopmail version from 5.3.30 to 5.4.4 with qmail 1.03 and qmailadmin 1.0.29

I did run some testing as below: -

1. Add "disable_external_relay" into .qmailadmin-limits for domain name testing.com (example).
2. Stop the vpopmail service, clear the open-smtp file and start the vpopmail service.
3. Log into the pop3 service with this account [EMAIL PROTECTED], login successful.
4. Try sending an email via the smtp service with this account [EMAIL PROTECTED], message show "unable to relay", good, it works, :)


Next, I run another testing as below: -

1. Log into the pop3 service with another account (different domain) [EMAIL PROTECTED], login successful.
2. Try sending an email via the smtp service with this account [EMAIL PROTECTED], email can be send, good, :)
3. I noticed that my IP address had been created in /home/vpopmail/etc/open-smtp


But, here comes another testing...run the first test again as below: -

1. Log into the pop3 service with this account [EMAIL PROTECTED], login successful.
2. Try sending an email via the smtp service with this account [EMAIL PROTECTED], email can be send, no good, it didn't work, :-(


Hmm...can the "enable-romaing-users" log the IP address with the domain name together as one line?
So, this will prevent the user coming from same IP with different domain name to be able to send email via the POP-before-SMTP.


Have a nice day, :)

Regards,
ro0ot

I already set the .qmailadmin-limits to a particular domain with the
setting below but I still can send email via the mail server, why?


You might want to upgrade to the lasted production version 5.4.4

You will definitely want to upgrade. I just checked the ChangeLog, and in the release after 5.3.30 I added a fix to "Correctly apply domain limits to user accounts."

Take a look at the ChangeLog yourself -- there were probably 100+ changes made between 5.3.30 and the final 5.4.0 release.
