[fetchmail-users] fetchmail header (undisclosed recipients)

[Sylvain Le T. <syl...@ad...>]

Hello,

 

I don’t find answers of my last questions in your FAQ.

 

1- On my server, I’ve got some mails where there is “undisclosed-recipients”
in the mail. Fecthmail doesn’t know how to retrieve it, what can I do?

2- When an external user of my network sends a mail on my network, I receive
2 copies of this mail.

3- If an external user sends a mail to 2 or more users, fetchmail re-inject
the mail in my qmail and this one sent the mail to other recipient. What I
do to make fetchmail look only the mail address of my network. 

4* – if an external user (from @domain.com) send a mail to my network
(@mydomain.org) and to one or more user on domain.com, each user will
receive 2 or more same mails.

 

*an account from domain.com receives all mails to mydomain.org. Fetchmail
pop it to retrieve mails.

 

What can I do to make fetchmail not look the “to:” and look the right
header?

How can I do to make fetchmail work nice with qmail (not reinject to make
qmail send again mails)

 

Thank you very much.

 

I hope someone can help me

1) Please do not use HTML for posting to a mail forum. I know you are
employing MS Outlook; however, that can be configured to send plain text
messages. In addition, sending it as a 'HIGH' or 'HIGHEST' priority has
no effect on a mail list either.

2) What version of 'fetchmail' are you using?

3) What MTA are you using?

It sounds like you have something seriously configured incorrectly.

Read the FAQ and provide the information requested.  We'll also need
mail headers from one of the emails so we can point out which envelope
header you should be using (see the man page).

These are all the same problem and related to your using multidrop
without defining the envelope header.

As Gerard said, please provide your fetchmail version.  You also need
to provide your fetchmailrc and any command line arguments you're
using - as per the FAQ you read :)

First, thank you for your quick answer

I'm using fetchmail 6.2.4 (I know I have to upgrade it) with qmail
-----------------------------------------
See my fetchmailrc
-----------------------------------------
defaults
set no bouncemail
poll domain.mydomain.org protocol POP3
localdomains mylocaldomain
tracepolls
envelope "Delivered-To:"
qvirtual "Delivered-To:"
username myusername
password mypasswd
is *
fetchall
mda "sed 1,2d | /var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject"

# the last line allowed to not receiving 2 copies of a mail.        
-----------------------------------------

I found your mail in my postier account...

Reporting-MTA: dns; mail.berlios.de
X-Postfix-Queue-ID: 3666CC4720
X-Postfix-Sender: rfc822; root@mydomain
Arrival-Date: Thu, 15 Mar 2007 22:13:38 +0100 (CET)

Final-Recipient: rfc822; fet...@li...
Action: failed
Status: 5.0.0
Diagnostic-Code: X-Postfix; mail forwarding loop for
    fet...@li...

my fetchmail doesn't know what to do with.... 
------------------------------------------

When there's a mail with "undisclosed recipients", my fetchmail dies and
it's blocked.

Thank you.

Please trim your quotes. Only quote necessary material and delete the
rest. (Outlook makes people misbehave, that's just incredible.)

Newer versions have better documentation, too...

This is bogus, you need to specify the prefix that the UPSTREAM qmail
adds to Delivered-To headers (what they have in their virtualdomains
table on their right hand side), if for instance all headers looked like:

Delivered-To: let...@ba...z

You could use qvirtual "letorrec-".

Make that

mda "sed 1,2d | /usr/sbin/sendmail -i -f %F -- %T"

That should work with qmail (you MAY have to use /usr/lib/sendmail
instead) and prevent forwarding loops (by making recipients explicit -
the %T is it).

Also, will people *please* stop using this ghastly qmail-inject? It
offers no advantage, only the disadvantage of a nonstandard command line
interface. (qmail's sendmail compatibility wrapper even understands
qmail-inject's environment variables.)

As I said before - you need to provide the headers from a sample email
so we can point out which header you should be using for the enevelope
header.  Blindly putting in values won't help you.

You also haven't provide any of the other diagnostic information that
the FAQ tells you to provide, except for the contents of your
fetchmailrc and version of fetchmail.  If you really want help then
please provide this.

Are you sure?

Fix your upstream and your configuration - this should address items #1
to #4. Make sure to meet the requirements at
http://home.pages.de/~mandree/mail/multidrop

man fetchmail
/envelope
/qvirtual

I don't understand this question. See if whatever problem you have in
mind persists if you've fixed the other issues.
