-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 The sign up page is up (http://www.thefreespeech.org/collaborate/). Its working all right, but I am not exactly happy with it. 1. The short id is mandatory, and has to be exactly 6 chars. I have not made any provisions to check for it. Need to do it asap. 2. the php code is not really neatly written. 3. I dunno if there are any bugs in this (security or otherwise). Could someone please go through the code and just help me with modifications. I must admit that this is the first time I played with php + mysql. However, till then, you could sign up guys..it does the job all right! - -- Regards, | Cybertech Networks Pvt.

How to block junk mails at Server level
by Jaishankar Krishnan Iyer 30 Jul '02

30 Jul '02

Hi Guys, Our linux RedHat 6.2 Email Server runs sendmail with qpopper and Drac perfectly. The system also run RAV Antivirus good enough to clean all virus at server level. After setting up DRAC we could minimise the spammers to a larger extend. Now the issue is users do receive lots of junk mails with promotional offers/ads etc which we would like to block at server level itself. Setting filters in procmail has really not Any pointer to commercial softwares or any other method to achieve this would be appreciated. Thanks and Regards jaishankar

Example, If in Mumbai, enter mum.yourdomain.com, and in locals / rcpthosts for all machines, enter yourdomain.com. In addition, all locations' host names should be entered in locals and rcpthosts (this will be needed for what you intend to do) > 2)Intra-office mail, i.e mail from an user to another user > in the same office should be delivered locally. Use ldap replication and the mailHost attribute - Let mum.yourdomain.com be the central Master LDAP server, and let all other locations be slaves. If you add any entry at any of the slaves, they shld be replicated at all slaves via the master. Use the mailHost attribute to specify that user's mailbox location. Mails will get delivered locally for local mailboxes, through QMQP for <yourdomain> users who are not local, and others will get delivered through normail Qmail procedures. > > 3)Mail for remote user i.e.one situated at another location > should be routed to that location's mail server, but > through the central anti-virus gateway. IMHO, this is not possible if you are using Qmail-LDAP. I wld say that the above procedure is the best method. IF you still wnat to do it this way, this could be the architecture. Apart from the central server, none of the machines run LDAP, but all of them have the QMQP service running. Run two Qmail services at all locations - the second only with QMQP. The only file in the second Qmail's control file would be smtproutes, which would have the entry of your central server. The main Qmail's .qmail-default file would contain something like: | /var/qmail2/bin/forward "$EXT(a)yourdomain.com" So all mails for "anyone(a)yourdomain.com" not found locally would be delivered to the central mail server through QMQP. Here using the mailHost attribute, Qmail would deliver the mails to the appropriate location. > > 4) All users have a common web interface for changing > passwords hack Horde IMP. > > 5)In case of qmail,how can i have some accounts on the > local server and then instruct the server to send mails to > some other user but belonging to the same domain to some > other smtp sever.. this without LDAP.... > i.e user1(a)company.com wants to mail user2(a)company.com > but user1 and user2 are on diff machines ..

Not at all - the most common scenario in corporates, but thanks to Qmail-LDAP, the solution is just about perfect, and simple - Just 1 catch though, it helps if all your locations are connected permanently. - -- Regards, | www.thefreespeech.org | Cybertech Networks Pvt.
