Howdy,
I tried to get syncmail running on SF for our project phpcms. But I only
get a
sh: /cvsroot/phpcms/CVSROOT/syncmail: Permission denied
What I've done (I used Debian):
1. I checkout CVSROOT to a local directory:
2. I add the line "syncmail" to checkoutlist
3. I add
DEFAULT $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/syncmail -u %{sVv} nz...@us...
to loginfo
4. I commit checkoutlist and loginfo
5. Copy syncmail to my local CVSROOT directory
6. $ chmod a+x ./syncmail
7. $ cvs add ./syncmail
8. $ cvs commit -m "Syncmail added" ./syncmail
I got a "cvs server: Rebuilding administrative database". But when I
commit an other file to test syncmail, I got the error "sh:
/cvsroot/phpcms/CVSROOT/syncmail: Permission denied"
I used the actual syncmail from CVS so I tested the new -m switch to use
an other mail host.
I don't know the user CVS use to execute the script. The files described
above are available at
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/phpcms/CVSROOT/.
Maybe somebody knows this problem and can give me a hint. I didn't find
anything in the mail archive.
thx
[TOM]

Hi, just wanted to confirm SF bug #626140.
Doing a "cvs import ..." gives the following traceback:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/cvs/CVSROOT/syncmail", line 323, in ?
main()
File "/home/cvs/CVSROOT/syncmail", line 316, in main

File "/home/cvs/CVSROOT/syncmail", line 139, in calculate_diff

Inserting "print >> sys.stderr, filespec" at line 139 results in the
following line:

Yes, this sounds like a good way to implement it. Just build the
message, including the headers, and either feed it to smtplib.SMTP() or
to /usr/sbin/sendmail.
BTW, you might want to invoke sendmail as
--mta="/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -oi"
in order to cope sanely with lines containing single dots in the
message. Perhaps /usr/lib/sendmail is found on more systems than
/usr/sbin/sendmail; you might want to check for that too. See attached
patch.
[Just to get rid of any misunderstanding: I regard syncmail as a - be it
somewhat specialized - Mail User Agent, like mutt or pine or LaMail or
/bin/mail. These MUA programs get rid of their mail using a standard
interface. On Unix, this is the interface supplied by the Message
Transfer Agent, like Sendmail, Exim, qmail or Postfix. All these MTA's
supply a /usr/sbin/sendmail.]
FWIW, I've just taken a look at the Debian reportbug utility, another
Python script which sends out mail. It does:
pipe = os.popen(options.mta+' -t -oi -oem', 'w')
You might want to take a look at http://packages.debian.org/reportbug
and at
http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/r/reportbug/reportbug_2.10.tar.gz .

A, I see. Sounds reasonable :)

Patch for syncmail.pl attached; clarification, as given earlier: behave
as MUA's generally do on Unix systems: follow current best practice,
Beware: I've only done some minor testing of the patch.

Agreed.
Would you expect the MUA to handle a message in SMTP format, or would you want
the ability to specify recipients, subject etc. when calling the MUA. The
former approach obviously is a lot easier to implement and would be my
preferred option, something like
--mua="/usr/sbin/sendmail -t"

Mainly the need to run cvs-syncmail on a system that did not have Python
installed, and once I had ported the code to Perl I thought others might
possibly have an interest, too :-)
A patch would certainly be appreciated, or at least a clarification of the
requirement.

Yes, the reason to move from an /usr/sbin/sendmail interface to talking SMTP quite often is portability: Microsoft Windows lacks a ``standard'' interface to send out mail. However, using /usr/sbin/sendmail (if it's available) has benefits: you can rely on the local mail queueing, to deal with stuff like network outages.

We don't think it needs a lot of work; we created an SF project since that's a good way to make it available to others. It has proved a good idea since there have been valuable improvements from the community. As for the trackers, they weren't actually configured to send any mail on activity, so I was definately surprised to see so many things there. I've now configured them to send email to this list for all activity; since we really rely on email to know what's going on, this should improve turnaround of patches. (We could set up another list if this generates too much traffic on this list.) Catching up may prove to be another matter, however. ;-) If anyone can help by reviewing patches (and commenting on them in the trackers), that would be good, and generate an email that tells us what people care about the most. -Fred -- Fred L.

Being able to set the MAILHOST would change the requirement from the
current need to have SMTP available on localhost to simply being
available *somewhere*. That doesn't cover every case, but probably
covers most situations in which syncmail makes sense anyway.
I'll go ahead and apply a patch to the CVS version.

What would be cooler would be to modify Python's smtplib module to
enable it to talk smtp-over-stdin, e.g. use sendmail's -bs command.
I wish I had time for this.

Gentleman,
Thanks for all of the great ideas. From my reading, it seems that
Joost would prefer to have a command line option for cvs-syncmail to
choose to invoke the sendmail program rather than using the direct
SMTP connection to an arbitrary mail host.
Perhaps Joost will chime in and let us know if connection to an
arbitrary mail host will meet his needs or if _really_ needs to have
sendmail invoked.

It'd be less than <wink> a one line change to get that out of an
environment variable too.

The advantage of smtplib.SMTP is portability -- some platforms, most notably Windows, do not have a sendmail binary in the default path. The Perl version of cvs-syncmail at http://cvs-syncmail-pl.sf.net/, which is based on cvs-syncmail, has a configuration option for specifying a different SMTP server, so if you are relaying all messages through a smarthost at your ISP you can do export SMTP_SERVER=myserver cvs-syncmail ... > tried to write a patch, based on these old scripts, but failed. I'm not that fluent in python :( ) Retrofitting the change for allowing different smarthosts to the Python code should not be too difficult, if you prefer hacking Perl code you have a ready-to-use solution already (and changing the Net::SMTP call to an external sendmail call would be easy too if you still want to call sendmail instead). -- Klaus Johannes Rusch Kla...@at... http://www.atmedia.net/KlausRusch/ |

Hello CVS-Syncmail gang,
I'm forwarding a feature request from a Debian user.
