Subject: apop application
I install qpopper 3.0b26 on redhat 6.0 and wanna use apop.
Eudora supports APOP authentification method but netscape messenger and
outlook express do not it.
How can I use apop with messenger or outlook express ?
I wanna use apop because packet sniffer catch user id and passwd.
Is there any solutions using secure pop connection ?
Thank you in advance.

You don't need to use --enable-specialauth for shadow password
support on some systems, such as Solaris, and I think FreeBSD.
Enabling it on Solaris doesn't hurt, though.
Subject: qpopper 3.0b26 and FreeBSD 3.3
Date: Mon, 27 Dec 1999 18:49:27 +0100
From: Gildas PERROT <perrot at FranceNet dot fr>
Hi,
I am trying to install qpopper 3.0b26 and FreeBSD 3.3 with gcc 2.7.2.3.
I used "./configure --enable-servermode", modified config.h :
#define POP_DROP "/var/spool/poptemp/.%s.pop"
#define POP_TMPDROP "/var/spool/poptemp/tmpXXXXXX"
#define POP_TMPXMIT "/var/spool/poptemp/xmitXXXXXX"
in order to increase performances of popper server.
I create a /var/spool/poptemp directory with 777 permisions.
Now, when I tried to get my email, I have this error message :
PASS failed: -ERR maillock: '/var/spool/poptemp/.gperrot.pop'
and I can find that file which did not exist before :
-rw------- 1 gperrot wheel 0 Dec 27 18:41 .gperrot.pop
Any idea about that problem ?
BTW, i found that qpopper 2.53 was ported on FreeBSD but in the source of the
port, there was a flock.c file added to the standard distribution.
Any idea why ? Does someone have any explanation about the lock problem on
FreeBSD 3.x when using qpopper and sendmail 8.9.3 ?
Thanks in advance for your help. Gildas.

I am working on fitting German Poo's PAM patch into 3.0b27. (I am going to
make it work for Solaris as well as Linux).
One thing I'd like to change is the PAM service name. German used
"qpopper", but I'm inclined to think "POP3" makes more sense, as it would
be applicable to any POP3 server.
Any objections?

That's sensible, yes.
Now a stupid question: what advantages will we get with integrating PAM
with qpopper, especially in a setup that includes an MTA like
sendmail. You will still need /etc/passwd entries for sendmail, unless you
hack something else together....

The layer of authenticating users will be handled by PAM, not hard coded
into the process/daemon/server requireing authentication. So that you
can go from normal /etc/passwd to /etc/passwd + /etc/shadow with md5
passwords, not just crypts, and still use the very same binary, since
it is PAM that controls access and authentication.
And of course you will be able (theoreretically) to use other means of
authentication, like raduis, nis, kerberos, etc. transparently.

You'll need /etc/passwd entries no matter what you do as the PAM spec
specifically states it does not handle uid, gid or home directory
information. So unless you hack popper to get get uids and gids from
somewhere else or give everyone the same uid and gid, you'll have to get
the info from passwd,

Or unless you put the /etc/passwd /etc/shadow info in a different

In defence, I have a lot of luck with a program that imports what could be
considered the equivalent of an average email in size (thinking of
attachments, too), and it'll deliver at a rate of about 120 per second, with
an auto incrementing column & 2 indexed columns, done with not very
efficient code on my behalf ;-)
Of course, I'll be trying it out good & proper first, to see how well or not

Subject: Experimental smtp-after-pop patch for 2.53
Date: Tue, 28 Dec 1999 14:47:21 -0500 (EST)
Hello,
I've made a patch against qpopper2.53 that provides direct enabling of smtp
after a user authenticates via qpopper. By "direct" I mean the access.db
database that Sendmail uses is updated (using Berkeley DB routines). This
bypasses the need to parse a log file entry and should prove to be more
efficient.
If you are interested in trying this out, grab the tar file from:
http://www.netsuck.com
Note that this preliminary version is built for my configuration, namely a
Linux box running Sendmail 8.10beta10 and Berkeley DB 2.77. It also requires
that Sendmail is using the access.db database. See the included README file
for more information.
If there's interest in this, I'll work on fleshing out the implementation.
Thanks,
- Dana

Jay,
Thanks. Currently, the expiration is handled with a hard-coded timeout value.
Every time someone authenticates with qpopper, the list of IPs is scanned and
any stale entries are removed. I've toyed with having an external utility
that handles expiring the IPs (something that could be called from cron, for
example).
As for customized 550 messages, if you want just a single customized message
for all 550's, then I'll probably make a command-line option for qpopper to
allow you to specify that message. Otherwise, I'll have to implement some
kind of config file.
Also, I'm assuming that I'll have to create one or more --enable-xx options
to configure so that the location of the databases can be specified, and
possibly some non-Sendmail options (although I only have experience with
Sendmail for an smtp server).
I'm definitely looking for ideas to expand this, so fire away.

One thing to bear in mind is that MySQL usually delays writes and
doesn't fsync after writing. This gains speed at the expense of overall
reliability. Using a uninterruptable power supply is a necessity, not
just a really good idea.

Hi Dana,
while you`re talking about "firing away" ideas about this:
It`s great the patch you`ve coded!
It might be a nice idea to port it to Exim as well...

The Welcome email says:

The information is in the headers. Because Outlook clients hide
(all?) headers by default, users don't get to see them. Yet another
reason why I don't use Outlook. :-)

Subject: Qpopper gets a relay message from sendmail 8.10
I could not yet identify if the problem is Qpopper or Sendmail
OS: HP-UX 10.20
Sendmail 8.10beta + BerkeleyDB 3.0.55
Qpopper 3.0b.26 (installed using all defaults)
Gnu gcc, make, etc.
On the HP machine (host1):
Using the command line or the HP mail program on the server I can send
and receive mail to/from any domain.
From another computer (A PC with NT4.0 server SP5) using Netscape 4.61 I
can read all received mail from any domain. I can send a mail to a user
that has an account on the mail server (same domain).
But if I send a mail to an user outside the domain I get this message
"an error occurred while sending mail
The mail server responded
5.7.1 <user@domain> relaying denied"
I did a similar installation in another HP-UX 10-20 machine (host2) in
the same domain using Sendmail 8.9.3 and Qpopper 2.53 and everything
worked fine.
The difference between the two cases is:
host2 the DNS constains IP number host2.domain
host1 the DNS contains IP number host1.domain
and mail.domain redirecting to host1.domain to keep the mail server
independent of the IP number
If you have an idea where is the problem, please, help me.

sendmail. the first host is not set up in the receiving sendmail access
files to relay mail to someone outside its hosted domain. you must put the
host's ip in the sendmail access files.
be wary thought of hosts you allow to relay through, for spam reasons

Subject: Re: Qpopper gets a relay message from sendmail 8.10
Thanks for your answer
This is what I did after reading your suggestion for a similar case.
using m4 I generated a new xx.cf file using
FEATURE('access_db', `hash /etc/mail/access')
Since I have two network segments I defined my access file as
128.227.121 RELAY
128.227.108 RELAY
using the makemap hash /etc/mail/access </etc/mail/access
the file access.db was generated.
After this I was not able to start sendmail. Checking using
/usr/sbin/sendmail -Csendmail.cf -bt < /dev/null
I got a message saying that could not find the class hash.
Before installing sendmail I installed the Berkeley data base. I check and
found the file
libdb.a in the BerkeleyDB lib dir. Then I assumed that sendmail would install
NEWDB with hash and btree. But it looks that did not. Although the files
aliases.dir and aliases.pag were created automatically.
As another test, I ran newaliases and got the message
line 123: readcf: map access: class hash not available
I am trying to understand why the class hash not there.
Since BerkeleyDB is there, I assumed that by default the hash class would be
installed

2. Fixed problems on SunOS4 and ar/ranlib.
3. Added --enable-bulldb ./configure flag to specify bulletin
directory and use of bulldb.
4. Added --with-new-bulls ./configure flag to specify maximum
bulletins for new users.
5. Fixed syntax problems with bulldb on some platforms.
6. Improved error messages in pop_bull.c
7. Edited man pages for new settings; clarified some other
items.
8. Fixed syntax errors on AIX systems.

My guess is that the client has lost track of which UIDs it has
already downloaded. Was the client software reinstalled? You could
try a different client.

you need to tell qpopper to use ~/Mailbox not /var/spool/mail

You tell qpopper to use ~/Mailbox in popper/popper.h not in config.h
and the #define you're interested in is HOMEDIRMAIL The qmail value
is there already, don't change it just uncomment it. End result should
be this:
#define HOMEDIRMAIL "/Mailbox"

I haven't done patches for 3.0 yet, but for 2.53 take a look at David
Harris' smtp-poplock at http://www.davideous.com/smtp-poplock/ You
won't need to make any changes to any of the qmail sources and only
add a couple of lines to qpopper. 3.0 won't require any changes when
I do the patches and get them to David.

You tell qpopper to use ~/Mailbox in popper/popper.h not in config.h
and the #define you're interested in is HOMEDIRMAIL The qmail value
is there already, don't change it just uncomment it. End result should
be this:
#define HOMEDIRMAIL "/Mailbox"

Put this: POP_MAILDIR back the way it was originally. Then make clean
and make.

Hello
You may want to look at these pages:
http://www.cynic.net/~cjs/computer/sendmail/poprelay.html
http://spam.abuse.net/spam/tools/smPbS.html
Works well here with linux. Pay attention to upper/lower case in patched
qpopper log entries and in the scanaddr-function.
hope this helps.

Subject: Problem with a virtual domain
Date: Tue, 4 Jan 2000 10:38:59 -0500
Hi,
Hope someone here can help me out with a problem I am having.
We are an ISP. We have a business customer that we host a virtual domain
for. I have set up a virtual user file (/etc/virtusertable)
which contains the following line:
@hardwickclothes.com hardmail
Things are working fine EXCEPT that all of the incoming mail for
hardwickclothes.com has: hardmail at hardwickclothes dot com
The purpose of the hardmail account is just to collect mail for that domain.
The business logs onto our server using that account, picks up the incoming
E-mail then distributes it internally. I need to have the To: field of this
E-mail read who the E-mail is really to (i.e.: johndoe at hardwickclothes dot com,
sally at hardwickclothes dot com, etc.) and NOT have the To: field on all of the
incoming E-mail for that domain changed to: hardmail at hardwickclothes dot com
I suspect from my reading that this has something to do with masquerading
and envelopes, but I have no clue as to what I need to change to make their
mail behave like I want it to.
Help please? :) Thanks.

Have you tried sending mail to <sally at hardwickclothes dot com>? I've been running
virtusertable (sendmail 8.9.3) for several years, and it's never failed to
work that way right out of the box. Catchall aliases shouldn't rewrite the
To: header, ever.

The one that says 'DO NOT DELETE'? Ignore it, qmail doesn't need it and
I doubt qpopper does either.

What did you configure with? I just used ./configure and made with gmake
and had no problems compiling and running on 2.2.8-RELEASE.
