Author : corey (lewt_at_warcry.com) poste le 21/11/2003 06:06 Comment : were running the www.qmailtoaster.com setup and I've followed all of these instructions and tried a few other setups but SA and Clamav are just not working. IE The qmail-scanner-queue.pl file will not call from either the supervise run file in the smtp directory or if you set it up in the tcp.smtp file for tcpserver. I dont get errors though in any of my logs so I'm at a loss of what's going on. Reply to this comment

Author : sylvestre (sylvestre_at_ecranbleu.org) poste le 24/11/2003 22:04 Comment : Are you sure you patched qmail and updated /etc/tcp.smtp ? Reply to this comment

Author : Tomdkat (tom_at_bay-online-media.com) poste le 21/06/2004 07:50 Comment : I had this EXACT same problem and it turned out to be a permissions between clamav and qmail-scanner. Make sure clamav runs under the SAME id as qmail-scanner so clamav can access the files for scanning. Peace... Reply to this comment

Author : Filipe (encrypt_at_ew3.com.br) poste le 25/11/2003 18:37 Comment : As i said, i followed up this how-to.. But to install clamav i had to install libc6 and libc6 made several changes in my system.. (i'm migrating from redhat to debian, so i'm just a newbie in debian).. now i can't find the reason for i'm having this problem: # telnet localhost 110 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. +OK <423.1069774567@loalhost> user test@test.com +OK pass test ld.so: Incorrectly built binary which accesses errno or h_errno directly. ld.so: See /usr/share/doc/libc6/FAQ.gz. +OK I've patched qmail properly, reinstalled all binaries. I've searched for the errno calling in uscpi and vpopmail but it's all ok. What do i do? Reply to this comment

Author : sylvestre (sylvestre_at_ecranbleu.org) poste le 25/11/2003 18:52 Comment : In my opinion, you forgot to patch Daemon tools (or qmail or ucspi) with the errno error.... Anyway, you should ask on the appropriate mailing list, I guess you will get more answer. Reply to this comment

Author : Tanen () poste le 07/01/2004 17:58 Comment : @Joker, i'm pretty sure it's the path of your mysql.sock file that isn't correctly defined, verify where MySQL put his file (mysql -u user -ppass and after have been logged type \s or status) and you will see the path where the mysql.sock is. After search where Vpopmail try to access to the fil mysqld.sock, (the name of the file is different mysqld.sock here) on your syslog file, (on my Debian, when i have get this error, the file have been search on /var/run/mysqld/ path, you can try to add your domain name, by adding a symbolic link, between the directory of the MySQL file, and the directory where vpopmail want find it (ln -s /tmp/mysql.sock /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock) and after you need to fix it, on the configuration file of vpopmail.

If so, "quit" will end the session. c.) try "mail " in your shell. this will send you an email from your network, what means, that no firewall can stop it.

I dont know what to do in regards to the: apt-get install libmysqlclient10-dev If you are under debian, otherwise, you must have the mysql sources available apt-get install zlib1g-dev If you are under debian, otherwise, you must have these sources available (Thanks to Ken MacFerrin). so i skipped it (this could be my problems :P hehe) but then when i type MAKE i get this error: make all-recursive

In fact, i'm using a local http server, and some automatic mails can't be send to some providers (aol, club-internet) which don't accept mail from all sources... So i want these mails to be redirected to my smtp server (i'm in France, and i want to use smtp.wanadoo.fr). If anyone has a clue... Thx ! Reply to this comment

The users can accept emails, but not send through my server. ("Sorry, that domain is not listed in my allowed rcpthosts). (I went for the MySQL way with ucspi-0.88) And when a user logs in through pop3 or imap from a remote machine, the 'relay' table in the vpopmail database is empty, but lastauth table gets information, so there's nothing wrong with the database, also the /var/qmail/control/sql file is readable by everyone. What could possibly be wrong? I really need to fix this a.s.a.p. Thanks in advance! Martin Reply to this comment

Author : dms (qmail_at_sicknoise.de) poste le 09/05/2005 16:44 Comment : Great Howto, thanks alot! :) But I got a little problem now and don't know where to look for a solution. I followed your instructions and everything works great, except SSL. I am able to POP with SSL and retrieve my mail, but then there will be made no entries into the MySQL-relay-Table. If I POP without SSL there are no problems. The IP will be written to the relay-Table and I am able to SMTP. Is this an ordinary behavior? Or is this the issue you mentioned at chapter 14..."But it may cause some issue with the pop-before-smtp system."? If so I will change to an older version, but I don't want to experiment around too much now that most of the stuff is working. ;) Maybe the problem is somewhere else. Thanks for any hint.

I have found a suggestion on a Debian list that says that I have to alter the ./configure script. Supposedly I should change the line SUIDPERL="${SUIDPERL:-$dir/suidperl}" into SUIDPERL="${SUIDPERL:-$dir/perl}", which I did. Unfortunately this didnt change anything.

The first time qmailadmin wouldnt let me log in, so deleted everything, tried again. Second time around, a lot less errors, but qmailadmin still wont let me log in. So first question: Why wont qmail admin let me log in? Not as postmaster or as any user on the domain or as any username/domain combination. Second question: I'm trying to make a mail server which would collect all mails from an existing mail server, and act as a local mail server on a dial up (adsl) line, with a changing IP adress. What needs to be changed in the setup proces to do so? Third question: squirelmail, i do the setup, but afterwards i dont see any files for it in /var/www. What's up? Reply to this comment

Qmail and all his stuff correctly installed, everything is ok but one: after i create a new virtual user, in his Maildir there are only the folder Tmp, Cur & New, .Sent .Trash & Drafts aren't created and the 2 files courierimapsubscribed & courierimapuiddb too. And now the funny: after the very first log into squirrelmail the missing folders magically appear, looking at the time of creation of them you see it is the same of the logging into squirrel. Who's responsible? what/where is the cause of this? Thanks all! Reply to this comment

Author : Sylvestre () poste le 25/07/2006 08:16 Comment : Yep, I had this issue many times. You have a few solutions : * decrease the number of thread max for spamassassin * export the spamassassin on a other server (the best solution) * enable the spamassassin service just for a few domains/users * Install the patch : http://www.interazioni.it/opensource/chkuser/ because each email is processed even if the user account doesn't exist (be carreful with this patch, I haven't really been able to install it with my documentation). hope this help ;) S.

I installed the last qmail-toaster but I had to remove the ucspi-tcp package because I need the vpopmail mysql solution so I decide to follow your indications. I just downloaded and installed the files you recommend for tcpserver and the MySql solution as follows: wget http://cr.yp.to/ucspi-tcp/ucspi-tcp-0.88.tar.gz tar -zxvf ucspi-tcp-0.88.tar.gz cd ucspi-tcp-0.88 wget http://www.qmail.org/moni.csi.hu/pub/glibc-2.3.1/ucspi-tcp-0.88.a_record.patch patch -p1 < ucspi-tcp-0.88.a_record.patch wget http://www.qmail.org/moni.csi.hu/pub/glibc-2.3.1/ucspi-tcp-0.88.errno.patch patch -p1 < ucspi-tcp-0.88.errno.patch wget http://www.qmail.org/moni.csi.hu/pub/glibc-2.3.1/ucspi-tcp-0.88.nobase.patch patch -p1 < ucspi-tcp-0.88.nobase.patch wget http://sylvestre.ledru.info/howto/qmail/ucspi-tcp-0.88-mysql.patch patch -p0 < ucspi-tcp-0.88-mysql.patch The messages I had after that were these: # patch -p1 < ../ucspi-tcp-0.88.a_record.patch patching file rblsmtpd.c # patch -p1 < ../ucspi-tcp-0.88.errno.patch patching file error.h # patch -p1 < ../ucspi-tcp-0.88.nobase.patch patching file rblsmtpd.c Hunk #2 succeeded at 228 (offset 38 lines). # patch -p0 < ../ucspi-tcp-0.88-mysql.patch patching file tcpserver.c patching file db.c patching file db.h patching file Makefile patching file conf-ld patching file conf-cc I guess this means that everything was OK...
