I installed a mailserver on ubuntu and also installed squirrelmail as the webmail. I am able to send emails from the web interface but not able to see emails that are sent to me. I am only able to see the emails in the folder on the machine. It looks like I am missing some configuration.
View 2 RepliesI 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.
I am having Sendmail ver 8.13.1 installed on CentOS 4.5. Recently we have noticed that some emails are not getting delivered to user. Mailserver is receiving emails and they are getting processed but not getting delivered to user.
I have checked mail log and in the log it shows that email has been delivered to user below is log for reference
(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".

how to deliver the mail externally?
Using Ubuntu 9.10 with sendmail
Does anyone know what might be causing the following situation?
Crontab emails are bouncing with the message "Message rejected as spam by Content Filtering." (I've contacted the mail server admin about this.)
But emails sent with the command "mail user@example.com" etc. are "stat=Sent ... Queued mail for delivery" (according to the log), but never arrive and never bounce. I've tried sending as root and as other users.
Whenever Debian is installed, a mail client is also installed. I don't have the faintest idea what is happening below the surface, but if something happens with the system, like a failed cronjob, a mail is sent to my account on that computer. I can't recall it exactly, but I think during Debian installation I had to specify where system mail has to go to. In my case I am installing as jlinkels, so all mail directed to root goes to jlinkels. I am not sure if that redirection is still asked, on older versions I know it was, but I can't remember I had to tell that while installing newer versions. Anyway, on all boxes, automatically a folder /home/jlinkels/Maildir is created and within that the subfolders new cur and tmp. Whenever I log in in such a box mail is checked, and when I run mail I get a listing and can read the mail.
However, now I am running a server for which it is extremely important that I get the mail if there is something exceptional, and this mail does not function. That is, I don't have the ~/Maildir/new ~/Maildir/cur etc, but for some reason I do have ~/new, ~/cur etc. Now when something happens, root receives a mail. This mail is placed in ~/new. But when I run mail I see that there is no new mail for me. Still there is new and unread mail in ~/new. Installed Debian Lenny on this box and did nothing unusual. I have installed tens of Lenny boxes and run thru the installation procedure almost with my eyes closed so I am pretty sure I did not do anything out of the ordinary on this box. Still the mail is screwed up.
A few observations:
- the system (programs like cron) know they should send mail to root. This happens. I see in the header the mail is sent to root.
- the mail system (whatever that is) knows that mail to root should be sent to jlinkels
- the mail system even knows where to find the mailboxes of jlinkels
- the mail client does not know where to find new mail for jlinkels
I have seen that exim4 is running on the box. Is exim4 responsible for forwarding and dropping the mail in ~/new? How this mail is produced, how it is dropped in my mailbox, and how the mail client can find this.
I recently started having a problem with Dovecot deliver on my mail server. Mail is no longer delivered to the mailboxes. The mail boxes are on an NFS share. I tracked this problem to the following system call:
[Code]...
I have followed the official instructions here to setup VNC service initially and was able to get it working.
However, during the course of setting up my BIND service, I have done the following:
1) Turned on SELinux
2) Used system-config-security to add the ports TCP:53 and UDP:53
When I tried to save the settings from 2) above, my GNOME desktop delivered via VNC got frozen.
Now when I tried to restart vncserver with "service vncserver restart", I see the following. I am also unable to connect via [url] anymore.

In December 2009 I switched my web-hosting package with 1and1 to their best VPS package. What a difference! At this time I knew absolutely NOTHING about Linux sys admin stuff. Now, I know a little more I now run 'several' VPS instances (all with 1and1). Back to the problem then... On all my boxes I run CentOS 5.5 (Linux 2.6.18-028stab070.4) with various different versions of Plesk (9.5.2 and 10.2.0) The VPS instances themselves are on Virtuozzo nodes. As you may know, Virtuozzo has a firewall GUI allowing modification of iptables. I only use this when I make a mistake and cannot SSH. My 'original' iptables: (the VZ chains are controlled by the Virtuozzo container)
Code:
Chain INPUT (policy DROP)
target prot opt source destination
VZ_INPUT all -- anywhere anywhere
Chain FORWARD (policy DROP)
[code]....
if this iptables chain limits the number of connections to 3 per second and 100 per second respectively, is this still secure or is there no point in having this rule? If the rule is a good one to have, then how can I allow http connections to bypass this chain/rule?
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 5 Replies View RelatedI have recently set up an ubuntu 10:04 based email server using postfix, clamav and squirrelmail. The setup works like a beast, much better than the old sco based system we were using. Anyway I work for a law firm, and we have use a bespoke case management system to complete work on cases. We have started a paperless office initiative. This means we are asking more and more clients and firms to correspond via email. This is where my troubles are kicking in. The governing body of solicitors in the UK is very picky, and we have to have certain formats and information in documents when sent out to clients, this is the same for emails.
I have a script that will cat the html header information, then cat the body of the email and finally cat the footer html information. The output of which is perfect and usable to the firm. My problem comes sending this file. The end of the script I have the following:
Code: mail -s $SUBJECT $CLIENTS_EMAIL < email.$$$ Pretty self explanatory. But when the email is sent from the mail queue its not delivered in html format but in plain text. Any email sent using outlook from any machine on the network can send and receive html email. How can I make this happen from the command line?
