Not getting mails in INBOX, postfix with squirrelmail in rhel6.1
Hi,
I have configured postfix with squirrelmail on rhel6.1.
Using squirrelmail I can send mails but can't get mails in inbox. Even in sent folder, I can see the sent mails.Maildir is the mail format.
User is getting authenticate by openldap.
Your valuable suggestion is required to resolve this issue.
if this is a NEW install then is there a MUST use need for the old RHEL6.1 ,
RHEL6.3 was just released .
if new install on the older 6.1
how did you install "squirrelmail" & "postfix" ?
using the RHN and/or other third party repos and yum ?
or some other way ?
currently environment is running on rhel3 and we want to migrate on rhel6.
We have used RHEL6.1_64 bit and squirrelmail from squirrelmail site. since this is not coming with rhel6 bundled.
First we have tested using imap and it was working but when complied courrier-imap with squirrelmail mail+postfix is not comming in INBOX.
Maildir is the format and might be some where we need to related this but no idea.
your BEST and first option with RHEL is to use the tech support you ARE paying for
a RHEL server can be upwards of $6,500/ year for the required license
from the last post
a guess is that there is a bit something off with the postfix install
is postfix up and running ?
how was it installed , the correct way with yum
are all the prerequisites for squirrelmail installed AND configured ?
Things like
- apache, it needs
1)register_globals off
2)magic_quotes_{runtime, gpc, sybase} off
and how did you install the prerequisites like Apache, php ,
both of those are in the RHN repo
Code:
yum install apache php
-- or --
yum groupinstall " web server"
/* Now i DO prefer that people manually install Apache( and all prerequisites) from source for the first 12 or so installs
that way they LEARN how to set it up an CONFIGURE it then use the repo to save the extra 45 Min. */
and on RHEL6 there is also SELinux to configure
ask your RHEL support for that and writing the needed rules from the error logs LEAVE SELINUX SET TO ENFORCING !!!
Also on RHEL did you uninstall the default installed sendmail?
I do not use RHEL6 ( I use scientificlinux 6)
nor squirrelmail so for more than just the normal basics , i can not help more
BUT
this is RHEL6 on a server so you ARE paying red hat $700 to $6500 per year for support
have you asked red hat
seeing as you ARE paying then you might want to use the support that you paid for .
Yes, I am paying and also opened a case but didn't get any solution from last 5 days.
That's why we are discussing and provided the solution and concept in forum.
Hi,
After rebooting the server, now I am not able to open squirrel-mail and getting below error.
Bad request: The IMAP server is reporting that plain text logins are disabled. Using CRAM-MD5 or DIGEST-MD5 authentication instead may work. Also, the use of TLS may allow SquirrelMail to login. Please contact your system administrator and report this error
Now mails are coming and sending but still error are coming continuously.
/mailslice is the NFS mount point from HP NAS storage and this is in cluster.
I have given mount options as rw,intr,hard during cluster configuration.
