[webmin-l] Usermin Issues

[Jesse C. S. <jsm...@ga...>]

Hello all once again.  Over the last couple of months I've noticed the 
following issues.  Was wondering if anyone had some ideas on how to work 
around them:
1.) Even though I currently have "Session Authentication" enabled and 
also have enabled "Auto-Logoff" after 30 minutes it doesn't appear to be 
working.  If the users are idle looking at an email for 30 minutes or 
idle at the main windows for 30 minutes they do timeout like they 
should.  However, if they are looking at their mailbox they never 
timeout.  One of my techs believes its because the page is set to auto 
refresh every 120 seconds and that Usermin is interpreting the refresh 
as user interaction.  I would like to find away for this not to happen 
anymore.
2.) I have Usermin setup to send mail via the sendmail executable which 
98% of time works without incident.  However, a few months ago there was 
a problem where users couldn't write to /dev/null.  Usermin was not able 
to send emails, but reported to the user that it had.  I worked out the 
/dev/null problem and thought this was over with, but found out this 
morning that we had a milter failing on our server which was telling all 
connecting servers "451 error 4.3.2 Try again later"  Again usermin 
clients were sending email and not getting any indication that there was 
a problem.  Those mails never left the server and they don't appear to 
be in the queue anymore.  I was thinking about changing it so it 
actually connects to the server by port and not using the command but I 
don't know if thats a solution to this problem.  Ideas anyone?

As usual any help or ideas are greatly appreciated a head of time.  
Thanks all.
