|
I'm trying to configure Qmail with vpopmail.
Here's what works:
virtual users can recieve mail
virtual users can check mail via pop
And what doesn't work:
1) virtual users can not send mail via smtp. looks like smtp auth and tls aren't working.

telnet localhost 25
EHLO
250-AUTH LOGIN CRAM-MD5 PLAIN
250-AUTH=LOGIN CRAM-MD5 PLAIN
250-STARTTLS
250-SIZE 0
250-PIPELINING
250 8BITMIME
starttls
454 TLS not available: missing RSA private key (#4.3.0)
auth
503 auth not available (#5.3.3)

2)
real users can not log in via pop. password denied basicly. haven't focused on that yet.
also: real users can not send via smtp
3)
mail sent to real users doesn't deliever. The logs show this:
| Quote: | @400000003f6c9fc405b00824 delivery 1: deferral: /bin/sh:_line_1:_dot-forward:_command_not_found/
|
a google search doesn't turn anything up, so I'm stumped.
anyone? it can't really be this difficult.
I simply emerged vpopmail, which had qmail as a dependancy. Reading the vpopmail site said that qmail needed a patch to actually read the new mailboxsize way of managing quotas, and there was an ebuild for qmail that included that. (qmail-1.03-r12.ebuild). so I emerged that, and that's where I'm at.
any ideas, let me know. I haven't included any configs in this post, didn't want it to be too long.
thanks,

I'm staring to wonder if it's better to download the qmail source myself and apply the patches I want.
There seems to be a plethora of qmail configs, patchs etc. Very frustrating. |

Try editing /var/qmail/control/defaultdelivery and removing the line about dot-forward.
As for the SMTP auth problems... there is a set of instructions at the end of the qmail emerge. I do not know if they are the problem or not, but it is worth a try if you missed them:
| Code: |
If You want to have a signed cert, do the following:
openssl req -new -nodes -out req.pem \
-keyout /var/qmail/control/servercert.pem
Send req.pem to your CA to obtain signed_req.pem, and do:
cat signed_req.pem >> /var/qmail/control/servercert.pem

I got it working. I'm not sure exactly how..
I followed the directions here: http://www.pipeline.com.au/staff/mbowe/isp/webmail-server.htm and used the latest vpopmail compiled from source. everything else was emerged.
it doesn't allow relay, which is good. but i'm not exactly sure why it's not. i like understanding things.
as for the cert thing.. you're probably right. I saw the "send this to your CA" and I wasn't sure what CA meant so I ignored it. I thought I had generated ssl certs for apache https without sending any cert to anyone, so I figured that was an extra step.
So, what is a CA? I'm guessing something like "cert authority".
thanks,
