How can I make a sorted list of all users on my local machine who currently have mail in their 'Inboxes' (i.e., their spool of delivered but not yet read email). I also need to include "system" users and list one user per line.
View 1 RepliesI am using CentOS, In Evolution mail, I was not able to send/receive my mails. When checked I found my Inbox exceeds 2.1 GB in size. I renamed my Inbox to Inbox.old and made a new Inbox in evolution. Now mail is working fine. but I want to get my old mails also. Is there any solution to get my mails back ? Also please tell me the cause of this problem
View 2 Replies View RelatedI just added my login id to /etc/aliases to forward root's local e-mail to my local e-mail account in evolution.
As always, when I make a change to /etc/aliases, I run newaliases. I now get the following, and root's mail is not showing up in my local mail Inbox:

Is this correct?
I understand my hostname (i.e., Eng-Lab-010) is not a fully qualified host name, but I never had a problem before. But it appears this not a good thing. What should I do?
Is there a command to list all of the users I, as an administrator have created? It is difficult to tell the users I created from those created by the system by reading /etc/passwd. I thought 'man 5 passwd' would shed some light on this but is wasn't so
View 3 Replies View RelatedI tried to use evolution as mail manager for my yahoo account,and now it works but there is really big problem for me. Evolution sucked and deleted ALL messages I had on yahoo so now I can't find them with any other computer except this one ! This is really bad because I'm on the move all the time and it is impossible to access my contacts or reply to some message from cell phone for example ! Can I somehow recover all inbox from evolution to yahoo mail ?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI haven't logged on to Fedora for a few days, but I did this morning and opened claws mail and clicked 'get mail' and it proceeded to download new messages. However, when I clicked on the inbox folder, the email count changed to zero! No email. I checked and found the folderlist.xml has the correct Mail folder location, and when I went to that location, (on a shared data partition) indeed the 'inbox' folder was EMPTY. No files at all. I'd had a similar issue once, but the email #MH location wasn't correct, so when I fixed it, the email appeared. I did a web search and a search of the claws bugzilla.
The closest I came was a message about the cache not keeping accurate information. There was a claws-mail update at the end of May, but it had been working fine since then up until now. And, it's possible it's some sort of Fedora issue (?), because I had opened my 'home' folder on my desktop to check the claws folder, and now I see that there's a gaping hole on my desktop where that folder should be. I can get there by clicking 'places' and 'Home Folder'. Any other reports of disappearing folders and email?
Is there an option in Evolution to return to the Inbox view after you delete a message, rather than going on to the next message? I cannot find it anywhere.Incidentally, this same question is one of the zero-reply questions: URL...I wonder if this means there is no such feature in Evolution and I should submit some kind of "feature request" at their development site.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've just upgraded to 11.04 and I created a evolution-backup.tar.gz file as I've done in other upgrades. When I restored the backup and started Evolution, I've lost all the emails in top-level folders (Inbox, Sent, Drafts etc). My own custom folders within these top level folders contain the emails that I backed up. There are quite a few important emails that I've yet to respond to in my Inbox and this is very concerning. Also, I've lost all my Contacts!
View 4 Replies View RelatedRecently did a fresh install of F12, previously used F11 without any problems. Now Evolution move ALL received messages to trash automatically. I have had to make rules to move each e-mail to the inbox but still all incoming messages go straight to Trash.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI was asked to list passwordless or locked accounts in a fedora system. As far as I know, fedora or RH dont allow passwordless accounts (the system locks the account Edit: ... unless you set passwd -d :-P ), so I might show info about locked accounts.
I am totally aware that I could do a grep or an awk searching for "!!" or "", but my people is asking me to check against passwd -S (which prints info of accounts). The thing, is that in Solaris you can check with passwd -a -s all the users, but in Linux I couldnt find anything similar. what approach do you reccomend for passing, say , the list of users ( like the output of awk searching only user names) to the command passwd -S one by one?
I was trying to list sudo users in a Linux Machine,
[root@redhat ~]# grep -v -E '^#' /etc/sudoers
root ALL=(ALL) ALL
%work ALL=(ALL) ALL
%dilipvp ALL=(ALL) ALL
where work is a group and dilipvp is user. Can you help me in creating a better script which can list the members of the group work as well. and why I am getting empty space in between.
I'm trying to send mail to other users on the same host, but they don't arrive.I've tried using mail and alpine. Both programs apparently work fine, in that they behave as expected and apparently send the email.But when logging in as the recipient, there is no mail in /var/spool/mail, and nothing in alpine INBOX

Firefox opens file listing instead of Nautilus opening file listing.When I access a folder via "Places" -> "Home Folder" or "Places" -> "Downloads", Firefox opens and list the contents of the directory.I have re-installed Nautilus, un-installed Firefox and then going to "Places" -> "Home Folder" or "Places" -> "Downloads" launches Nautilus and I can view the contents normally. Anybody else had this problem with Firefox ? Anybody know how to fix this Firefox problem ?Running Ubuntu Desktop 9.10 64bit.

When I open evolution sometimes i cannot view my inbox? although I can view my other folders of which i have about 8 or 9. I suspect this is an issue with the storage folder for my inbox, but where would i find it?

View 14 Replies View RelatedI just installed ubuntu for the first time today, and setup Evolution to check my email from my hotmail account. All went fine, I downloaded all my emails from the last 7 years but then when I actually logged in to my email account on hotmail.com all of my messages were gone and my inbox empty. I was hoping that it would downlaod a copy of my messages - I still want a copy in my hotmail inbox for backup just in case something happens to my computer. Anyway, so my question is there a way to put them back into my hotmail account? I know its not as though I have lost them forever, I just would like the last 7 years of important emails on there in just in case.
View 5 Replies View Relatedi am trying to set up a mail server that will support users in a LAN in my school. I am using postfix on a Mandrakelinux distro.
I can send mail when I am root to the other user on my (same) machine both when in command line (mail command) and on Graphical mail client (Kmail ) but the user (sam) cannot send mail to the root account on either interfaces.
I followed the postfix configuration settings on John_Wiley_-_Redhat_Linux_Networking_and_System_Administration_3rd_Edition.
I installed sendmail in RHEL5.4 with TrendMicro Spam scan engine. The configuration like sendmail should forward all the mails to scan engine after scanning it will deliver it to the mail domains. same way all the mails coming from external servers are scanned and the delivered to local box. My problem is when i sent mail for local users its delivered locally. but when i sending mail for external like yahoo its going through scan engine. I added the smarthost in sendmail.mc file also.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to know is it possible in Sendmail to restrict some users from sending / receiving mail to / from outside world i.e. they should be able to send and receive mails only from local domain.

I have a mail server running Postfix and the problem I'm running into is that when trying to send mail, I get a "relay access denied" error.Inside my main.cf, I did not specify 'smtpd_recipient_restrictions' so by default, the variable is:

smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, reject_unauth_destination

I recently made the migration from mbox to maildir.I use postfix, spamassassin, dovecot for imap and procmail for delivery.I made the changes for Maildir to postfix main.cf, dovecot's dovecot.conf and procmail's procmailrc.All good, working well.Just noticed though, that mail marked as spam and filtered by procmail to be put in the users ~/Maildir/.spam/new folder are owned by root. Not allowing the users to even see it (600 perms)
So postfix sends all mail to Procmail:
mailbox_command = procmail -a "$EXTENSION"
But not all mail is effected, only mail picked up by this receipe in the /etc/procmailrc:
