View 2 RepliesI am using sendmail-8.13 & procmail as an MDA. Now as our mail users are increasing I need to put up mailbox quota limit for every user. I have gone through the search engine but could not found any effective help to configure mailbox quota with sendmail & procmail.
View 7 Replies View RelatedWe're using sendmail with ldap routing. We've setup a new mailstore which some of our users are piloting.
We've been asked to configure sendmail to forward a copy of pilot users emails to the new mailstore (Zimbra) as well as the old (Sun Messaging).
I'm not exactly sure how to do this. I've tried modifying aliases to forward to 2 destinations, but ldap routing seems to take precedence before aliases.
I'm running Postfix in slackware 12.1. The mails are stored in /var/spool/mail/username. When a user's mailbox size got more than 200MB, the user can't check their mail. when it happend the log shows:
Apr 4 10:04:11 ns1 popa3d[2391]: Authentication passed for userX
Apr 4 10:04:11 ns1 popa3d[2391]: Failed or refused to load /var/spool/mail/userX
I have a Linux server that has local mail service. There are few user accounts on this server. User may send the mail to each other but that only restrict to LAN environment only.
For example, I may
# mail user1
To send mail to user1. User are not able to send mail to public. Some service like hylafax using this local mail service to send notification of fax status.
I don't want to manage and maintain local mail service anymore. I have subscribed a package from ISP to host a public domain of my own. I wish to have my hylafax service to able to send the notification mails to public mail server, is that possible to do it? It is great if all mails that send to local mail server may forward to public mail server. That makes the local mail service serve mail forward only.
(We are running CyrusIMAP v2.3.16 on Slackware 13.1)The Problem:A user deleted a HUGE public Folder (>10000 Messages, >250 Subfolders), and now the Folder is in his "Trash" folder.Besides the obvious "Why did he have the access rights to do so in the first place??" question, I am honestly at a loss as to how the user did it:Trying to copy it back using Thunderbird failed utterly, TB crashes, or copies only a part, or nothing at all... (Tried 3.x on Windows and Linux Clients)So now I'm searching for a way to copy the folder back serverside.But web and manpages seem to offer few help:I don't want to move the folder to another partition, nor do I want to reconstruct or restore any corrupted data...All I want is to copy the folder from "user/USERNAME/Trash/HERE" back to "shared/archive/HERE".
View 1 Replies View RelatedHowdy. I'm trying to get mailman up and running. I have CentOS 5 (hiab) and qmail. I did yum install mailman and that went fine, I set up apache and can see the mailman pages via htttp.The issue now is with sending mail, whenever I send emails to the list I get: 511 511 sorry, no mailbox here by that name
So I'm assuming my alias files/.qmail fies are in the wrong spot. The contents of my .qmail are (respective to the -admin, -bounces, -etc)
when I try to send emails to new created emails account, I get this error:
<teste@topdapop.com>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in virtual mailbox table�
And if I try to send a e-mail, the authentication fails if I setup the account at the desktop email client to password requirement on.
But it works when I try it using a webmail client (Horde) and I receive the email.The old emails accounts work fine. The new accounts and old ones were created with Plesk.I find an entry with
/usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/mail_auth_view | grep teste@topdapop.com
I get no output from
strings /var/spool/postfix/plesk/virtual.db | grep teste@topdapop.com
Using mchk and mailmng does not seems to change that.
I also found the file /etc/postfix/virtual.db .strings /etc/postfix/virtual.db : no output
I'm running CentOS 5.4 with sendmail. My computer hostname is bob.domain.com. Whenever I would nc -v 127.0.0.1 25 into sendmail I would get bob.domain.com on the banner. Whenever I send out email the emails would be user@bob.domain.com. I wanted the email to show up as user@domain.com. So in the etc/mail/sendmail.cf file I changed the line
Code:
Dj$w.hostname.com
to this
Code:
Djhostname.com
Now when I enter sendmail I see domain.com in the banner so I know the change took place. However, when I send email using
Code:
mail -s "test" xxx@xxx.com
then email still goes out as user@bob.domain.com. What other changes do I need to make?
me sendmail configuration steps on centos, i need to define AUTHENTICATION parameters in this configuration.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to install a dual booting machine with OpenSUSE v11.1 32bit and CentOS v5.2 64bit. I installed OpenSUSE first and allowed it to install and configure grub in the MBR and after that I wanted to proceed with CentOS v5.2. The installation went fine with two notable exceptions:- when I had to configure grub installation parameters, CentOS offered me only 2 solutions: either install it on the MBR of the first hard disk or not installing it at all. Other distributions are more flexible allowing you to install it in the boot sector of the root partition for example. Because I didn't want to ruin the existent grub onfiguration, I reluctantly accepted not to install it for CentOS assuming that I could manually configure the entry later in grub's menu.lst file.
- when I was presented with the options for software components installation, I've clicked on virtualization category/function because I intend to use the machine as a VMware host. There was no guidance on screen at that point and I blindly assumed that by choosing the virtualization function I would get necessary tools and drivers that will help me further on. It seems that this was a wrong move as you can see it below.
After completing the installation, I tried to search for a template or guiding on how the menu entry in menu.lst should look like but the grub directory was empty, not surprisingly because I've told CentOS earlier not to install it. Using the files in the /boot directory from the CentOS installation I tried to improvise a menu entry but it's not working. The boot stops with famous Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format. Using the file command to check what kind of files I'm trying to load as kernels I'm getting :

I have installed postfix and dovecot on my server and thought postfix will not only take SMTP connection from my e-mail client like Outlook, but also handles "mailx" commands from the server. However, it looks like sendmail is still responsible for sending mails from "mailx". I tested this by turning it on/off using "service sendmail stop" and "service sendmail start". Mails sent using "mailx" will only be sent when sendmail is up. When I did "yum info sendmail", it lists sendmail as an installed package. Is is safe to remove sendmail by running "yum erase sendmail", and let postfix handles "mailx" also?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm working with a vendor on getting a web site certified for Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard for processing our credit card transactions. The vendor's running Centos 5 (which we also run at my business). The current issue has to do with sendmail, which the required PCI security scans say should be upgraded to 8.14.4. However, the vendor points out that latest version packaged for yum on Centos 5 is 8.13.8.
I'm still somewhat of a newbie at this, but from my reading, it seems that installing the 8.14.4 sendmail means using 3rd party repositories and potentially breaking the system. I browsed through "Installing RPMforge" on Centos wiki, which notes that a complete listing of the over 4000 RPMforge packages is at [URL]. Scanning that link shows sendmail packages with lower numbers than what's currently installed, 8.13.8. All I see on sendmail.org are tarballs of the latest verson, 8.14.4, available 2009-12-30. I presume this means you must install from source; I'm not sure the vendor's comfortable with this, especially for such an essential service.
I'm contemplating to switch from sendmail to postfix. My current setup is very simple: a minimal CentOS 5.5 64bits install with Selinux enabled on ports 25, 80, secret sshd, 53 and 953. I also use Google Apps for my domain to manage the email accounts. Basically, I use sendmail only to email the daily logwatch, as well the email sent from my forum software. The issue that I'm facing is the forum is starting to hammer sendmail with a lot of emails.
My goal is to use Postfix only to send those forum emails. I don't need a SMTP setup, that is handled by Google Apps. Can I do that with Postfix? Will Postfix perform better than sendmail? All guides I saw on internet pair Postfix with Dovecot and the setup is a little complex, not to mention that I will never have email accounts created on server.
I was wondering if you have any handy guide who will basically replace sendmail with Postfix. Personally, I tried myself using the CentOS HowTo. I yum'ed postfix and system-switch-mail, then I disabled sendmail and switched the agent to Postfix. I left the main.cf config unchanged and tried to start Postfix (service postfix start), but I got a "master is stopped" message when I checked the daemon status.
I run a CentOS server and would like to put a disclaimer message on every email that is send through that sendmail server.

I've previously configured sendmail on Fedora systems and CentOS 4 and haven't run into this before...
After upgrading to CentOS 5.3 my sendmail will no longer deliver messages using a program in my /etc/smrsh. It fails with the message "unknown mailer error 1". This program was working perfectly before I did the upgrade using yum. Here is the list of packages that were upgraded. Does anything jump out as being the source of the issue? I don't believe that sendmail itself was upgraded:

libselinux-utils - 1.33.4-5.1.el5.x86_64
