Subject: syslog vs. spop3d
Message-ID: <20010107022721.A2229@smtp.pharmacy.bg.ac.yu>

Hello,

I have "traditional" settings in /etc/syslog.conf:

*.info;mail.none;authpriv.none         /var/log/messages

mail.*                                 /var/log/maillog

and in /etc/spop3d.conf I have put:

  LogPriority   mail.debug

but spop3d still logs everything in /var/log/messages?!

What could I be doing wrong?

Hello,

I was wondering if there is any planned support to integrate VPOPMAIL
support for virtual domains?

I like the product so far, but need to be able to authenticate against
multiple vpopmail passwd files.

Thanks.

It won't appear in 0.16 for sure. Maybe in next releases.

Hi

I have the following setup:

3 POP servers mounting a common NFS mail spool and 3 MX servers 
delivering to this spool using postfix. (They are actually the same 3 
machines)

The mail spool is in maildir format.

I have about 15000 mail accounts.  I do not have local user accounts on 
each of the machines for these users. Rather, I am using PAM 
authenticating the ussers off a remote RADIUS system (which is also used 
for dial up)

I had to modify the solid-pop3d code slightly to allow this.  All 
maildirs are owned by user 'mail'.

My spop3d.conf:

<Global>
  LogPriority    local1.info
  MailDropName   /var/spool/mail/%s
  MailDropType   maildir
  UserOverride   false
  ChangeGID      false
  LogStatistics    true
  UserBullFile   /var/spool/mail/server-bulletins/users/%s
  BulletinDirectory /var/spool/mail/server-bulletins/bulletins
  AddBulletins   true
</Global>



My questions:

Is solid-pop3d (ver 0.15) stable (solid) enough for this setup (I am 
using inetd)?

How will it handle the same user connecting at the same time on two of 
the servers?

I think it is (I hope :). I know some server with SolidPOP which handles
about 100,000 accounts and they haven't big problems with it.

Yes. Multiple access to the same maildir is allowed.

I am using 0.15, but that was not the couse of the problem. I
missunderstood about where spop3d.conf shold be. I put it in
/etc/spop3d.conf. Now it works. I'll try to watch if there is logging
proglem regarding LogPriority.
