Hi, I've recently installed, and am now road testing, squirrelmail 1.2.4 and have come up against a bit of weirdness. That is, in my logs I've noticed all mail is being set out as user 'nobody'. E-mails do arrive in the destination inbox with the From: field correctly addressed. Messages going out as being from 'no...@my...' does make troubleshooting problematic. My set-up is as follows: Solaris 8 Apache 1.3.22 Squirrelmail 1.2.4 OpenSSL 0.9.6c PHP 4.1.1 Exim 3.34 The data and attachment directories sit immediately above the squirrelamail folder, and are owned by nobody:nobody as per my apache set-up, except for 'attachment' which is owned by root. Permissions are: data: 700 attachment: 730 squirrelmail: 730 Any ideas/thoughts/solutions appreciated. David Smith University of Oxford |

This has to do with how you have postfix & apache & php setup. The mydomain.com part comes from the postfix main.cf file mydomain = yours.tld The nobody part comes from the user that you have a apache & PHP running as. As far as I know there is no way to change the "apparently from" header. I'd love to change mine if somebody knows how. I'd love it to support virtual domains and the real system users. Oh well.

It's the 'trusted user' problem again. The solution for Exim is to set trusted_users = nobody in the main (top) section of your Exim configuration file. Or add ' : nobody' to the list of trusted users if you already have the trusted_users option set.

That's because the web user you have setup to run apache is nobody, there's no real way to get around that. Although I guess this may well not happen if you send using SMTP rather than sendmail (just a feeling though) -- Simon Dick |
