What to do??? HELP!

Can only send email right now not get... is it because of that or is it something else?

Thanks!

do a

Code: Select all

netstat -ntulp

or

Code: Select all

netstat -p -a --numeric-ports

and look which prog is running on the port required by pop3d (25).
Terminate this prog and start pop3d.

Quotas get set by default with this howto. Not sure where/why this is done, and yes it can be a pain to remember to remove people's quota's.

In any case, verify that there is a quota on the account with

/var/vpopmail/bin/vuserinfo email@account.com

and remove the quota with

/var/vpopmail/bin/vsetuserquota email@account.com NOQUOTA

Everybody who install vpopmail wants to supply mailaccounts which are not systemaccounts.
If you just want to provide mail to users who have an systemaccount, install qmail without vpopmail.
Than you mail will end up in /home/user/.maildir or something similar ...

I agree with Blubbi. (only ditto-ing cuz my name was asked for an answer).

Vpopmail is for virtual accounts, not system accounts . I never have used system accounts for mail. If anything I would just create a .qmail file in the user directory to forward the local mail to my virtual account.

QUOTAS can be set or unset with qmailadmin (latest version)

blubbi, skywalker, other GODS who grasp qmail/vpopmail....

yup you were right-I must have had my brain shutdown when I embarked on the tedious process of getting qmail and vpopmail installed....

OK. Now that I *grok* that vpopmail is only for virtual mail-what does this mean ?

a) can I also have a local(system) mail agent setup -parallel to the qmail-vpopmail thingie ?

b) if so can I use qmail for this or must I install some other mail package for local (system) mail ?

c) beyond getting local(system) mail up and running - I *would* like to use qmail/vpopmail for hosting my own email address/server- I have dynamic dns(dyndns) configured and am running ddclient which automatically ties iwbcman.homelinux.org to my apache2 server- can qmail/vpopmail be configured to allow me to recieve and send email from this address ?

Ultimately I would like to :
a) have local(system) mail up and running
b) like to use my dnyns domain for sending and recieving emails
c) I would like to be able to use a web browser from another location to browse my local (system) email and my virtual domain email(hopefully I can tie a vpopmail virtual domain to a dyndns email server)

Ok. now the confusion should be complete...

It must be obvious how much I am *suffering* from confusion -if you, or someone else, could offer some hints, tips etc. it would be greatly appreciated...

thanks

Has anyone figured out the authentication problem?

I've read through this entire topic and couldn't find an answer.

I've followed the entire How-To several times.....and have everything working.

I can *send* mail through smtp but I cannot receive mail.

Using K-mail, I log into courier-pop3d only to get an authentication denial "User or Password is wrong." I've used the user login and the user@domain.com login iterations. Nothing.

Squirrelmail gives me the same error, as does courier-imapd......

I'm pulling my hairout here. I've done the suggested change from Maildir to .maildir in the .confs......and have run the script many times.

What is causing the auth error?

In my daemonrc I'm using vchkpwd as the only AUTHMODULELIST......etc. But can't get any authentication.

Is there any suggestions on how people have solved this? I have no clue where to being.

Thanks in advance for any replies.

Qmail _is_ your local mailsystem. If you associate "local mailsystem" as a system, where system accounts are mailaccounts you just have to uninstall vpopmail.

b) if so can I use qmail for this or must I install some other mail package for local (system) mail ?

You can use qmail for this. Uninstall vpopmail and qmail will use the sytemaccounts as mailaccounts and deliver mails to ~/.maildir. If you would like to use vpopmail, just create a the desired maildomain (for example your dyndns name) with vadddomain an add to this domain as many as users you want with vadduser

c) beyond getting local(system) mail up and running - I *would* like to use qmail/vpopmail for hosting my own email address/server- I have dynamic dns(dyndns) configured and am running ddclient which automatically ties iwbcman.homelinux.org to my apache2 server- can qmail/vpopmail be configured to allow me to recieve and send email from this address ?

local or not ... qmail/vpopmail is a mailserver, if you hav a mailserver up an running, this mailserver is your local mailserver, and if you are not at home, and your server is connected to the internet, its a mailserver which, depending on your configuration, accepts mail from everywhere.

Ultimately I would like to :
a) have local(system) mail up and running

Install qmail

b) like to use my dnyns domain for sending and recieving emails

Install qmail

c) I would like to be able to use a web browser from another location to browse my local (system) email and my virtual domain email(hopefully I can tie a vpopmail virtual domain to a dyndns email server)

install squirrelmail or sqwebmail, or any other webbased mailclient to get a webinterface running on your server

Ok. now the confusion should be complete...

Hope I could help to unconfuse you

First of all, a BIG thank you to everyone who has contributed to this topic (and the others for that matter!) - it was a huge help and greatly appreciated!!!!

I have followed this forum, Blubbi's docs and the Howto from the Gentoo Docs. However I still have two issues:

1. My pop3 auth is working (I can login and check email from a pop3 client) and vpopmail is working fine with the database (domain and users are created). However, email is being delivered to a local user instead of the virtual one. Furthermore, when I try to send it to a virtual user that doesn't have a local account, it gets rejected. What should I look for so that all mail gets sent to the /var/vpopmail/domain/<name>/<user>/.maildir and not the local user? Also, I assume this means that vpopmail isn't truly working since my other virtual user without the local account can't recieve email? Does the user have to be added to the qmail users too?

2. Why does

Code: Select all

/var/vpopmail/bin/vuserinfo <username>

return

Code: Select all

no such user as <username>

. I can see the user made in the sql database just fine.

3. From the Gentoo Howto - when I type:

Code: Select all

# printf "postmaster@wh0rd.org\0postpass\0blah\0" | vchkpw `which id` 3<&0

I do not get anything returned. What should I do?

I have a feeling all of these things are related. . . ya think?

I guess you installed vpopmail befor qmail .... ahve a look in /var/qmail/users/ if the etries in the files there point to your virtual domains/users

2. Why does

/var/vpopmail/bin/vuserinfo <username>

try 'vuserinfo user@fqdn'

No Idea, sorry

Thanks for the reply.

I guess you installed vpopmail befor qmail .... ahve a look in /var/qmail/users/ if the etries in the files there point to your virtual domains/users

This was a fresh install and I followed the instructions so I install qmail before vpopmail. Here is the contents for /var/qmail/users:

Code: Select all

tolkien users # ls -l
total 8
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root           93 Apr 12 04:21 assign
-rw-------    1 root     root            0 Apr 12 04:21 assign.lock
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root         2185 Apr 12 04:21 cdb
tolkien users # cat assign
+alextechstudio.com-:alextechstudio.com:89:89:/var/vpopmail/domains/alextechstudio.com:-::
.
tolkien users # cat cdb
D!alextechstudio.com-:alextechstudio.com:89:89:/var/vpopmail/domains/alextechstudio.com:-::

I assume this is correct?
BTW, the user@fqdn fixed the vuserinfo. Thanks.

Blubbi, Sabrex, Anyone,

please help!

I've followed Blubbi's How-To to the letter. Everything seems to be running fine. I am able to setup email accounts with Qmail admin and such.

However, I CANNOT LOG IN AS A USER. The username and password ARE correct (even identitical to /etc/passwd).

To test out my configuration, I sent an e-mail to a newly created user as root@mydomain.com using mutt.

The mail is sitting in the users Vpopmail account, but I cannot retrieve it. Squirrelmail, Kmail, even Mutt give me a "Unknown user or bad password." error whenever I try to login.

I don't know what's wrong!

Here's my Authdamonrc:

I don't know what I'm doing wrong!

Also, I'm using No-Ip.com to run a virtual host called enon.no-ip.org.

Could this possibly have any effect? I did add the domain through ./vadddomain and typing in the domain name does send me to the correct address.

But my mail isn't working. Any advice or help?

vcihon · Post by **vcihon** » Thu Apr 15, 2004 8:15 pm

Pardok -

How have you entered your username in your mail client?

Are you typing just

<username>

or are you typing
<username>@domainname.com

The second is the correct username because it is a vitual domain.

Pardok · Post by **Pardok** » Thu Apr 15, 2004 9:45 pm

Yeah, see, the problem here is that I'm a complete moron.

Thanks......sorry for the stupid question.

Pardok · Post by **Pardok** » Fri Apr 16, 2004 5:29 am

Ok, me again.

I got everything working perfectly. I could send AND receive using Blubbi's How-To (as a sidenote, thank you so much Blubbi)

However, when I restart the server, I face the authentication error again. Squirrelmail gives me the Unknown user or password error, K-mail says password is incorrect, etc.

It was working before, but when I restart, it doesn't.

I have the feeling something isn't starting up at boot....but I can't figure out what. I went through the How-To again, trying to restart services, but nothing worked.

Anyone else face this problem or figured out how to fix it?

Thanks.

Pardok wrote:Ok, me again.

I got everything working perfectly. I could send AND receive using Blubbi's How-To (as a sidenote, thank you so much Blubbi)

However, when I restart the server, I face the authentication error again. Squirrelmail gives me the Unknown user or password error, K-mail says password is incorrect, etc.

It was working before, but when I restart, it doesn't.

I have the feeling something isn't starting up at boot....but I can't figure out what. I went through the How-To again, trying to restart services, but nothing worked.

Anyone else face this problem or figured out how to fix it?

Thanks.

Here's the output from ps -ef:

Modify the following entries in your courier config (imapd and pop3d) files:

Code: Select all

##NAME: DEBUG_LOGIN:0
#
# Dump additional login diagnostics to syslog
#
# DEBUG_LOGIN=0   - turn off login debugging
# DEBUG_LOGIN=1   - turn on login debugging
# DEBUG_LOGIN=2   - turn on login debugging + log passwords too

DEBUG_LOGIN=2

restart courier-pop3d|imapd and restart svscan

and have a look in the following logfiles:

Code: Select all

/var/log/mail
/var/log/qmail/qmail-smtp/current

mmmh, I have no Idea, why this souldn't work after a reboot .... for me it works even after a reboot ...

But take a look at these logfiels and report.

Everything is working - two more questions:

1. Can someone explain why you would use/want SMTP Auth Post Pop3?
I'm somewhat new to this (we run an Exchange server at work without Pop3 or Imap)

2. This is not directly on topic (qmail setup) but is related:
I have a test domain and a production domain. I set up the test domain with a copy of my website and qmail/vpopmail per this forum. I now want to have email and web traffic redirect from the production domain to the test domain so I don't have to redo everything. Should this be done locally with vpopmail and the use of aliases (and with Apache) or can it/should it be done on the DNS level?

Hints on how to do either scenario would be appreciated. . .

Thanks for the reply Blubbi.

I'm getting the error:

Code: Select all

Fatal: unable to bind: address not available

Very strange. Here's my host file:

Code: Select all

Also, diving deeper into logs, I found this in my qmail-send current file:

Code: Select all

I don't understand. It connected to the address before, but when I restart it doesn't. Any advice?

I'm getting the error:

Very strange. Here's my host file:

Also, diving deeper into logs, I found this in my qmail-send current file:

And netstat shows this:

I don't understand. It connected to the address before, but when I restart it doesn't. Any advice?

First of all try to solve your

Code: Select all

Fatal: unable to bind: address not available

error ... I have no clue what you have done. After you have fixed that error we will have a look at the oterh probs.

What is the problem?

Is clamav working. Are you able to scan any directory. Try scanning your home dir and look if clamav is working. If so, try to rise your "SOFTLIMIT_OPTS" re-emerge clamav, re-emerge qmail-scanner.
If that doesn't help, uncomment clamav in your qmail-scanner file, or unmerge clamav and re-emerge qmail-scanner.

1. Can someone explain why you would use/want SMTP Auth Post Pop3?
I'm somewhat new to this (we run an Exchange server at work without Pop3 or Imap)

Ähhhmm .... if everyone at work uses M$ Outlook, no problem (except securety problems

SMTP AUTH is a protocoll to authenticate SMTP connections. If clients are not able to perform this type of auth, the client can use SMTP after POP. That means, the client has to open a pop3 connection to the server befor he is allowed to relay throug the server he made the connection to.

2. This is not directly on topic (qmail setup) but is related:
I have a test domain and a production domain. I set up the test domain with a copy of my website and qmail/vpopmail per this forum. I now want to have email and web traffic redirect from the production domain to the test domain so I don't have to redo everything. Should this be done locally with vpopmail and the use of aliases (and with Apache) or can it/should it be done on the DNS level?

Hints on how to do either scenario would be appreciated. . .

Anyone able to help?

I followed the instructions word for word (well at least i think I did..)

When trying to add a new domain, I get the following

could not connect to mysql update server Access denied for user: 'vpopmail@localhost' (Using password: YES) with database
could not connect to mysql update server Access denied for user: 'vpopmail@localhost' (Using password: YES)
vmysql: sql error[c]: MySQL server has gone away

vmysql: sql error[3]: MySQL server has gone away

vmysql: sql error[c]: MySQL server has gone away
vmysql: sql error: MySQL server has gone away
vmysql: sql error[3]: MySQL server has gone away
vmysql: sql error[2]: MySQL server has gone away
Error: Unable to chdir to vpopmail/users directory

Any ideas ? I think possibly it's trying to connect to the mySQL database, but using the wrong password? I dont -really- know what else to try..

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Blubbi -

I am having the same issue as Pardok. I rebooted my server and now Pop3 auth is no longer working - says the password is wrong.

I enabled logging as you suggested but do not see any errors. Also, there is Nothing in my /var/mail directory - I'm not sure what should be there. .

Any ideas how to troubleshoot this? I have a feeling if I remove the user and then add him again, it will work however I would rather troubleshoot it first. . .

Vcihon,

I found out that the reboot problem has something to do with relaying.

I installed via Blubbi's How-To without doing the relay-ctrl steps, and my server was running well, even after reboot.

However, I face the problem of not being able to send from outside my own network. That is, I'd sign onto squirrelmail from a machine running Windows XP, try to send an e-mail, only to have it got losts in the ether of my machine.

It was never delivered. I checked the logs and couldn't find any errors. Everything was running and connected.

I don't know where to begin troubleshooting. I'm thinking it has something to do with tcprules.......but I'm not quite sure where to begin.

Blubbi, any advice? The "no-connect" error after reboot has been isoloated to relay-ctrl....perhaps something to do with realy-ctrl isn't starting at boot?
