[qmailadmin-devel] Problem with TMDA

[Andrea R. <ml...@ne...>]

Hi folks,

I've a problem with qmailadmin-1.2.0 (rc3) and TMDA.
Normally, when I check the box "antispam filter", in the .qmail file I've
this command:

| maildrop /etc/mailfilter

Because I've compiled qmailadmin with these options: --enable-modify-spam=Y
--enable-spam-command="| maildrop /etc/mailfilter"

Well, If add the TMDA to check the senders, I've to put on my .qmail this
command on the first line:

|preline -f /usr/local/tmda-1.0/bin/tmda-filter -c 
|/home/vpopmail/domains/mydomain/me/.tmda/config

The problem is: in my qmailadmin's web interface I see this line in the
"forward" box, with the "save" check-box activated.

Well, is this a problem without solution?
Thanks for your support
Regards
Andrea

Yes, the 1.2.0 version of qmailadmin will not work with TMDA.  We'd 
love to get a patch that adds a checkbox for TMDA filtering, but even 
if we don't, we plan to properly handle extra program delivery lines in 
.qmail files when we update the code in the 1.3.0 development series.

I hope very soon :)
TMDA is a very good thing vs. spam.
Where in qmailadmin is the code about spamassassin checkbox?

Thanks

If my changes to QmailAdmin are accepted, it probably isn't worth you 
putting any effort into the older version.  Handling .qmail files will 
be totally differrent when I get done.

What I have in mind...  If you select 'Standard' delivery then you can 
select various kinds of standard delivery from a dropdown list.  One 
option would be "no .qmail file".  If there are other choices, those 
choices are the names of files in a special directory.  If you chose one 
of those template .qmail files, that file is passed through the template 
processor and the output becomes the .qmail file for that user.

Instead of having to re-write the code to change the contents of the 
.qmail file, you create a template.  QmailAdmin could come with a few 
pre-written templates, and the server owner could alter or add to them. 
I probably want one directory that affects all domains and another for 
each domain with the drop down list showing files in both the system 
wide and domain specific directories.


Do you think you could work with that?

Is this in addition to or instead of spam checking?

Do you want to use TMDA with other delivery modes like Forward or Vacation?

What does your .qmail file look like with TMDA enabled?

Thanks,
Rick

In addition.

Is better that the user could have tmda and Forward/Vacation

> What does your .qmail file look like with TMDA enabled?

My .qmail file working is that (ie: user 'test'; domain 'domain.dom'):

|preline -f /usr/local/tmda-1.0/bin/tmda-filter -c
/home/vpopmail/domains/domain.dom/test/.tmda/config
| maildrop /etc/mailfilter

Where mailfilter is a script to redirect spam to ab...@do...m, and
others email to maildir.
Well, I've in mind that the new qmailadmin could have these options:

--enable-use-mda to the checkbox, for all the best message delivery agents
(TMDA, and if you want qconfirm and ASK), and to the first configuration
(mkdir .qconfirm or .tmda for example, with subdirectories, and so on).

--enable-mda-command to put in your .qmail the specific command.

The problem, in my opinion, is that: how qmailadmin interprets the .qmail
file's top-down processing.

What you're thinkin about?
Thanks
Andrea
