how to check user from text file in popmap.re???

by Winnie

Dear all, hi..i want to setup perdition server before 2 sendmail with openwebmail servers. But there are 200 users divided into 2 different sendmail servers A & B.. ...so..i made 2 text files /etc/sendmailA.txt and /etc/sendmailB.txt which are marked down which users are mapped to certain servers... but...in your "popmap.re" example, there are only divided character starting from A to F will map to server A and others will map to server B...but..I can't divide the user in this way...I must map those user from /etc/sendmailA.txt & /etc/sendmailB.txt ...then how to check user login name from both "/etc/sendmailA.txt & sendmailB.txt" in popmap.re .... thx for your attention and patience... regards, winnie

Here is my perdition.imap4.conf. add_domain servername_lookup connection_logging domain_delimiter @ F /var/log/perdition g perdition imap_capability IMAP4REV1 map_library /usr/lib/libperditiondb_posix_regex.so map_library_opt /etc/perdition/popmap.re server_resp_line P IMAP4 u perdition Here is my popmap.re nelsonts(a)foo.com nelsonts(a)10.5.0.1 nelsonts(a)fee.net nelsonts(a)10.5.0.8 foo.com >> 64.5.4.7 (sample IP only) fee.net >> 64.5.4.7 (sample IP only) When I tried to use Outlook, I input in my incoming 64.5.4.7, email add is nelsonts(a)foo.com , Account nelsonts and I successfully get my email under foo.com. But when I tried the email add nelsonts(a)fee.net using incoming 64.5.4.7 and Account nelsonts, I get the email under my nelsonts(a)foo.com account which suppose to be nelsonts(a)fee.net It seems it did not redirect to server 10.5.0.8 when I tried to used nelsonts(a)fee.net. Is there something wrong in my popmap.re or perdition.imap4.conf?

Come to think of it, you might not even need the "$1@" part, but I've not tried it that way. > I just add serverA,serverB and serverC in the outgoing_server of the > perdition.imap.conf. Is this correct? Oh yes, I forgot that bit. You won't need outgoing_server, because it should get the details from the popmap.re lookup. Our system setup is a little different from yours, but our perdition.imap4.conf file (minus a few irrelevant bits) might help: add_domain servername_lookup no_bind_banner domain_delimiter @ group nogroup map_library /usr/local/perdition/lib/libperditiondb_bdb.so map_library_opt /usr/local/perdition/etc/popmap.db timeout 1800 username nobody username_from_database We use BerkeleyDB lookups instead of regex and our login names get changed on the way through the system, but the basic idea is the same. The popmap.db file has entries that look a bit like this: user1(a)domain1.com mailbox1@server1 user2(a)domain1.com mailbox2@server5 user3(a)domain3.com mailbox9@server1 Our real IMAP server expects to see mailbox1, mailbox2, etc. as login names, but as you are probably not doing this, you can omit "username_from_database".

Re: [PERDITION-USERS] multiple domains and local servers

So you mean I will just remove the hashmark in add_domain servername_lookup and add: (.*)(a)64.0.2.6 $1@serverA (.*)(a)64.0.2.7 $1@serverB (.*)(a)64.0.2.8 $1@serverC to popmap.re? server A is the local server and 64.0.2.6 is the public. Same goes to other IPs. I just add serverA,serverB and serverC in the outgoing_server of the perdition.imap.conf.

Perdition should listen on all interfaces by default, so that part isn't a problem. You would then need to add "add_domain servername_lookup" into your config file(s) which will convert "USER eric" into "USER eric(a)64.0.2.6" (or .2.7 or .2.8 depending on which IP address they connected to). Finally you will need some sort of username to server map. For something as simple as this layout, regular expressions might be the way to go, so you will want something like these in your config files(s): map_library /usr/lib/libperditiondb_posix_regex.so map_library_opt /etc/popmap.re And something like this in popmap.re: (.*)(a)64.0.2.6 $1@serverA (.*)(a)64.0.2.7 $1@serverB (.*)(a)64.0.2.8 $1@serverC That should be about it. I've never tried using the regex library myself, so that last bit might be wrong, but the general idea should be okay. Chris. ____________________________________________________ Tired of spam?

multiple domains and local servers

by Nelson Serafica

I'm setting up a mail server but don't know if perdition can do this. I have a front server and 5 local server. Front server has 3 public ip's. Can I designate different domains per public IP basis? Let's say the public IP: 64.0.2.6 (domain X) to local server A 64.0.2.7 (domain Y) to local server B 64.0.2.8 (domain Z) to local server C So here's the questions: Can all these public IP listen to port 110/143 at the same time? If someone email to domain X, it will listen to 64.0.2.6 port 110/143 and transferred it to local server A? ____________________________________________________ Tired of spam? Yahoo!

string parsing fun with pop_capability and imap_capability

by bill-perdition＠carpenter.ORG

In the Debian/Ubuntu setup for perdition, there is /etc/perdition/perdition.conf and there is also /etc/default/perdition which gets dotted into /etc/init.d/perdition. I'm running all of pop3, pop3s, imap4, and imap4s modes. Most of the config info is the same, so I did that in perdition.conf. That leaves me with pretty short command line options to set separately in /etc/default/perdition. So far, so good. I'm trying to set imap_capability for imap4/imap4s and pop_capability for pop3/pop3s. By trial and error, I have figured out that those two names are just synonyms in perdition.conf, so I can't set them both there. Fine, I'll just set them differently in /etc/default/perdition. Alas, the embedded spaces are driving me a little crazy. Has anyone worked out the combination of quote marks, backslashes, and other shell magic to get things interpreted correctly by the time it gets interpreted by the init script? (I know I can just use different config files for the different protocols, which is what I will do if I don't find some other solution. I'd just rather avoid the redundancy if there is some other answer.)

Script Maps

by Matt Richards

Hello, Is there a map module for perdition that gets the necessary information it needs by using a script ? I was thinking something like the script runs in a constant while loop reading each line from STDIN and returns the remote server information to STDOUT. This is basically how authentication programs are used with the squid web proxy. I'm asking this because I am looking into a setup that runs multiple dovecot servers which all point back to the same location by use of networked file systems. Everything is working fine apart from a small problem that is related to users logging into two different servers at the same time. So although I need to make sure users are always connected to the same server this doesn't have to always be the same server but just the same server within a set amount of time from when the users logs in and I could quite easily set this up if perdition supported scripts as its backend. I'm sure this will open up other possibilities such as using database backends that perdition doesn't have a module for. Cheers, Matt.

We have a proxy in front of our email servers the mailboxes for each domain are spread across the email servers. Presently a users email client sends their complete email address as their username.
