SPF update?

U.Mutlu — 2013-05-19T19:31:12

Hi Davide & All,

just a question: does the SPF script (xm-spf.pl) cover the
final SPFv1 specification (RFC 4408) as depicted here:
  http://www.openspf.org/Specifications

The script is from the year 2004, but the above RFC was ratified in 2006.
Can something go wrong when the script is used nowadays?

Thx

To which firewall have you migrated to? Pfsense?

Did you change MTU size in migration?

  Hello all,

  I have an issue with two Xmail installations.
  I suspect that it's not XMail per se, but I need your feedback.

Hello,
see these links:

http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/12247/linux-file-access-monitoring

inotify-tools:
https://github.com/rvoicilas/inotify-tools/wiki

"Use kfsmd to keep track of changes in your filesystems"
http://archive09.linux.com/feature/124903

Besides this, you as an admin must know about all the software
that is installed on your system and is always running,
or is running via a schedule (ie. crontab).

It seems you have an addon-tool installed that does spam-filtering,
maybe a webmail addon with such spam filtering capabilities,
or xmail filters --> check the contents of filters.*.tab files in your
xmail directory (/var/MailRoot or somewhere else like /etc/xmail;
see of course also the docs of the xmail distribution for your system,
maybe there are 2 sets of xmail config files on your system?... :-).

You should also post information about your OS, the xmail distro you use,
start params / start-script, which addons or filters are installed etc.

Are you sure that no anti-spam or some script is running in your server?
Xmail, by default, doesn´t add entries in theses files automatically.

Try to monitor these files with something like:

aliasadd command

2013-04-15T17:22:09

Hello everyone:

Please skip that last email.

My problem comes down to the aliasadd command only.

I was hoping to use the command for both internal and external 
forwarding based on wildcards

But it seems that external forwarding is not liked by this command. It 
keeps spitting out: record no found in TAB file whenever the destination
is routed for an external email address.  The internal ones have no problem.

Anybody know how to route

*.internaldomain.org -> "myuser< at >externaldomain.org"

Do I have to use EXTALIASES.TAB file to create a mapping between 
internal and external?

Thanks,

marco

Re: Address family fallback bug

How to load up aliases.tab, domains.tab so that all email from a given 
domain forward to an internal or external email.

Inside domains.tab

"mydomain.org"

Inside aliases.tab

"mydomain.org" [tab] "joe" [tab] "joe< at >mydomain.org" [enter]
"mydomain.org" [tab] "*" [tab] "junk< at >externaldomain.com" [enter]
"*" [tab] "postmaster" [tab] "webmaster< at >specificemail.com" [enter]


What I am getting when email to fred< at >mydomain.org  results in a -550 
Mailbox unavailable error, when
I want the aliases.tab to pick it up and send it to junk< at >externaldomain.com.

The same for any "postmaster" emails, I want them sent to 
webmaster< at >specificemail.com

Anybody got any ideas?

Thanks,

Re: Outbind

Hal Dell — 2013-04-11T18:38:58


Hello... I have recently performed a new installation of xMail 1.27 onto a 
Windows Server 2008 R2 X64 configuration. 

The Server has two IPs 64.XXX.XXX.230 and 64.XXX.XXX.229. 

I am trying to force xMail to use 64.XXX.XXX.230 for all outbound eMails. 
I've looked an OLD server.tab that I have PLUS I look at the docs several 
times at: 

www.xmailserver.org/Readme.html#server_tab and 
www.xmailserver.org/Readme.html#smtp_gateway_configuration. 

After which I added a line in sever.tab like: 

"SmtpGwConfig" "OutBind=64.74.149.230"

It appears to NOT be working when I perform a telent test and review the 
received eMail -- its still coming from the default IP 64.XXX.XXX.229.. Do 
I need to add some privledge to the service enable this or am I missing 
something else? The service is running with LSA!

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Hal Dell

Re: Address family fallback bug

Sob — 2013-03-14T21:44:42


Yes. I think it's the right thing to do. In most cases, the first 
address will work. And when it doesn't, it seems wrong to ignore 
others if present, because using them might be the only way to 
deliver the message (there's no guarantee that other MXes will work, 
or there may not be other MXes at all).


If you don't fear binaries from untrusted strangers, this is what I 
currently use:

http://web.hisoftware.cz/sob/download/XMail-1.27-af-fix-test1.7z

No problems so far.

Re: Address family fallback bug

2013-03-14T13:05:57

Sorry for late response

Does your patch tries all the mx assigned ips even in -m4 mode (ipv4 only) ?

Do you have binaries available (here for win32) for testing ?
(i don't have vc compiler here)

Hi

On my servers, I noticed increasing number of failed deliveries with 
"417 Temporary delivery error" and "Error connecting to remote 
address". I did a little investigation and long story short, XMail 
doesn't handle address family fallback, when connection using 
preferred one does not succeed. It simply tries only one address per 
MX and if it doesn't work, it considers that MX dead and moves to another one.

Now imagine what happens when you use -M7 parameter (use IPV6 records 
if present, or IPV4 records otherwise, for host name lookups), target 
system has both IPv4 and IPv6 records set for all MXes (soon to be 
standard for most servers, well perhaps not so soon, but it's getting 
more and more com

Re: User password

Barry Kavanagh — 2013-03-09T16:42:33

Positive I mean to me it makes no sense. My environment is as follows

 

2 Virtual machines

Windows XP machine - IP address 10.1.1.17 (fresh install, outlook &
thunderbird mail clients, no AV, no firewall)

Gentoo Machine - IP address 10.1.1.200

 

A port scan of the Gentoo machine reveals ports 110, 25, 53 open but no 6017

Both machines can ping each other. I have full root access for both machines

I can telnet to port 110 and 25, haven't tried any commands for the POP3 as
I don't know hot to ask the server via telnet to authenticate users etc.

want to change the password for the XMail _Superuser_

stuff on XMail from the 6017 command line).
