Did you ever get it working? I just made a new checkout with:

 cvs -d :pserver:cvs@anoncvs.pld.org.pl:/cvsroot login

(No password. Just hit [ENTER] when it asks)

cvs -d :pserver:cvs@anoncvs.pld.org.pl:/cvsroot co solid-pop3d

Worked like it's supposed to.

The web site is out of date. Who maintains it?

Message-ID: <5.1.0.14.0.20010907214458.039678d0@mail.servicemail123.com>

Hello, I just have some questions.

1. How many people are working on Solid-POP3d (perhaps a better Q is how many have CVS commit access), and who are they?

2. As several have noted, cvs instructions on the web site (http://solidpop3d.pld.org.pl/) are wrong.

3. Who maintains the web site, and are they actually working on a new one, as the current one claims? Do they need/would they like help with it? The current one is pretty boring. In fact, it is so plain it nearly scared me away from using Solid-pop3d when I first looked at it (I thought any project that had a site that plain and un-maintained-looking might have plain, un-maintained code :-) )

Whoever you are, I'd be willing to work on a new one, if you'd like. Just drop me a line.

4. I do not yet know C, so I can't start coding away myself, but I'm curious about the goals and plans of the authors. I do not see a TODO, WISHES, or GOALS file in CVS, nor anything like that on the web site. 

5. Are the authors open to suggestions and requests from people who aren't programmers?

Hello,

I've been trying to setup Name Based Virtual addresses using the
/var/spool/mail/name.dom/user setup, but things are not working for me.
I've downloaded the 0.15-1 debian source package and recompiled it using
the added options
	--enable-bulletins
	--enable-mapping
	--enable-configfile
	--enable-nonip
which are in addition to the standard:
	--enable-last
	--enable-createmail
	--enable-maildir
	--enable-mailbox
	--enable-ipv6
	--enable-apop

However, using the example configfile from VIRTUALS, I have this:

...
<VirtualHost 1.2.3.4 goobers.com>
	DpUIDEnable	yes
	...
</VirtualHost>
...

And the logfile reports that DpUIDEnable is invalid with a:

	config file: line 23, column 1: unknown option name


I've tried to get the latest version from CVS as directed by the website
at solidpop3d.pld.org.pl but I cannot log in with the password given.  I
can log in by just hitting enter, but there is no solid-pop3d to checkout.

Help!

Thanks,
Christopher

Use the latest CVS, it has changes that you need for virtual hosting, IIRC

Does anyone know if the developer for this project is still alive and around? s/he doesn't reply to any messages.

--enable-dpuid?  Missed that one I guess.  :(

Thanks for the help!

Now, I trust that it works (so much faith!) ... anyone have a web-based
mail client installed that handles the multiple domains out of the box?
Open WebMail (http://turtle.ee.ncku.edu.tw/openwebmail/) looks the most
promising, but as there are people on this list, I'll ask here first.

Thanks again,
Christopher

Do you actually have this working?  I have it setup and it doesn't
complain as much, but the latest CVS will not allow you to --enable-dpuid
unless you also --enable-logextend, and it expects the DBFile to be a
[ng]dbm database.  Documentation is parse at best; I want to just use an
/etc/passwd type file for the passwords, not a dbm file.  Failing that,
what is the format for this dmb file?

thanks again,
Christopher

Here is a URL where I found version 0.16d

I didn't even try to get CVS working. :)  I was able to get solid-pop installed and working with virtual hosts using this source download.

Yes. I'm still alive. Sorry for late (or lack of) responses, but I'm busy

Aye, well, my vs checkout is a little old now, what I showed you is exactly what I used way back when :-)

You're not kidding. My offer to the Author/web site maintainer to help with docs and the web site still stands, if s/he will but contact me.

You absolutely cannot use /etc/password for virtual hosting, no if, ands or buts, as far as I know (but I'm not the author, maybe someone knows better then me).

First thing is to fix the broken CVS link.  And why isn't this a project
at SourceForge?  That removes so much management headache...

Well ... why not?  I mean, there's already one file per VHost, it just
happens to be in gdbm format.  Whay can't it be in a
	user:cryptword:apopcrypt
format instead of a how-do-i-read-binary? format?

But the secret was the great undocumented spdbm program.  Using this
program is like searching for El Diablo.  I feel like Vasquez!

thanks for the help; working like a charm ...

Hellos again,

I'd like to thank everyone for their help in the past - the daemon is
running great (actually, I have it running from inetd, but whatever) with
my virtual hosts an DpUID settings.

However, I'm trying to integrate Open WebMail into the virtual domains,
and having difficulty.  I basically need to rewrite the authentication
since solid-pop3d contains all the user passwords for my hosts.  However,
perl (Open WebMail is written in perl) doesn't generate anything that
looks like the solid-pop3d MD5 hashes.  I've read the source and found
that the format is "$1$ <salt> $ <md5hash>" and I can parse this into a
salt of 8 charaacters and a hash of 22 characters, which leads me to
believe that the hash is a base64 encoding.  However, Digest::MD5 has no
way to specify a salt (that I can see) so my hash always differs.

I could really use some pointers at this point since I am stuck hard.

Thanks,
Christopher

Just in case anyone was interested, I am rewriting the authentication for
Open WebMail now, and found my cluebat:

   } elsif( $AuthEncode eq "md5-bsd") {
      use Crypt::PasswdMD5 qw(unix_md5_crypt);
      # BSD MD5 goes like '$1$ <salt> $ <md5>'
      $p =~ m/\$1\$([^\$]+)\$(.*)/;
      $salt = $1, $p5 = $2;
      writelog( "Error! Not a BSD-MD5 encoding!\n" ), return 0
         if( $salt eq "" || $p5 eq "" );
      return 1 if $p eq unix_md5_crypt($password, $salt);
   }

So support is on the way!  I can authenticate the virtual user ... now I  
need to find some nice way to determine the real UID to setuid to, or take
the easy way out and just setgid instead.  (Then I have to fight exim to  
umask 117, which I already tried and failed...)

Oh well ...

Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.10.10109290146580.25947-100000@spanky.aet-usa.com>

Hello,

Please ignore me if bulletins are done this way, but ...

>From the [sparse] documentation I've read, spop3d keeps track of bulletins
by a .spop3d-bull file in the user's home directory (by default).  Now, I
haven't compiled support for bulletins, but this seems silly to me.  I
would like to propose the following logic:

$inbox   = stat <inbox>
$bulldir = stat <bulletin directory>
if( last_read($inbox) < last_wrote($bulldir) )
	foreach( $newbulletin in <$bulldir> )
		append_to_mailbox( $inbox, $newbulletin )

This should be the same logic functionally, but remove the need for a home
directory and a bunch of spop3d dotfiles.  It may not be "as reliable" as
the dotfile method, but it is if the inbox is a pure virtual (no user
account at all).  Maybe it's supplimental logic, and not a replacement,
but as I am not submitting a patch, I don't know ...

Also, is there any sort of expectancy for an official 0.16 release?

thanks,
Christopher
