Qmail SMTP Relay

Giany — Fri, 12 Aug 2011 12:05:00 +0000

If you have a Qmail server and you want to allow a specific IP to send emails (relay) through Qmail all you have to do is to add in /etc/tcprules.d/tcp.smtp :

IP:allow,RELAYCLIENT=”",RBLSMTPD=”",NOP0FCHECK=”0″,DKSIGN=”/var/qmail/control/domainkeys/domain.com/dkim1″

Where IP is the IP of your remote email server. You can even specify something like : aaa.bbb.ccc.:allow,RELAYCLIENT=”"

After this you have to run :

tcprules /etc/tcprules.d/tcp.smtp.cdb /etc/tcprules.d/tcp.smtp.tmp < /etc/tcprules.d/tcp.smtp

Qmail Toaster on Centos 5.5

I’ve followed the steps described in here : http://wiki.qmailtoaster.com/index.php/CentOS_5_QmailToaster_Install to install Qmail Toaster on Centos 5.5.

If you access the isoqlog and get this error:
Forbidden?You don’t have permission to access /qlogs-toaster/ on this server.

After you do some email traffic run this :

sh /usr/share/toaster/isoqlog/bin/cron.sh

Commands that can be used:

qmailctl stat
/home/vpopmail/bin/vadddomain domain.com password
/home/vpopmail/bin/vadduser user@domain.com password
/home/vpopmail/bin/vmoddomlimits -S domain.com // view domain limits
/home/vpopmail/bin/vpasswd // change pass
/home/vpopmail/bin/vmoduser // modify user stats

Plesk Qmail issue regarding /etc/courier-imap/shared/index

If you see in your logs:
Jun 4 16:11:18 host imapd: /etc/courier-imap/shared/index: No such file or directory

you need to check perms and ownership on /var/qmail/bin/qmail-queue

# ls -la /var/qmail/bin/qmail-queue
-r-s–x–x 1 root qmail 25828 Apr 26 15:20 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-queue
perms are fine, but ownership is not
# chown qmailq:qmail /var/qmail/bin/qmail-queue
# ls -la /var/qmail/bin/qmail-queue
-r-x–x–x 1 qmailq qmail 25828 Apr 26 15:20 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-queue
[root@host ~]# service qmail restart
