In my remote server, before a trye DNS domain mapping, I used a temporary
domain name, and I install imap, and it runs well, now after renaming temporay
domain name to true new domain name, I've got the following problem:

I can only telnet real_ip_addr 143, but
telnet 127.0.0.1 fails; also

I cannot telnet real_ip_addr 25 from my local LAN

I did the following query at my remote Redhat 9.0 server,

tcp 0 0 fake_domain_name:imap *:* LISTEN 20027/couriertcpd

I believe if I can get the following:

tcp 0 0 *:imap *:* LISTEN 20027/couriertcpd

But how can I fix that? If that's in imapd setup, how can I do that?

Thx,
HTM

Can you post a copy of your imapd configuration file - it's a while since I used courier but I think it is in there.

I do not know why this system does not allow me to past a file,
I actually does not change anything in the file generated by imap package
under /mail/etc as imapd

Shall I change the address from ADDRESS=0 to ADDRSS=my_ip_address?

in /etc/xinetd.d/imap and imaps, I also changed the disable line from yes to no


BTW, my mailman installation complates under my apache, I can use
http://mydomain.com/mailman/test.php, but according to readme,
I need to enter http://mydomain.com/mailman/create,
the web sever tells me that object not found, why?
and where is the create from?

Thx,
HTM

Yes - try changing the ADDRESS variable - I think that is it.

What did you do to the apache configuration? Did you alias the directory?

Yes, I changed DocRoot from /var/www/html to /usr/local,
mainlamn dir is accessable, but create cannot be found, why?

Thx,
HTM

I strictly follow the INSTALL and README, I did add an Alias in httpd.conf,
every step went well till I hit http://mydomain.com/mailman/create, object not found

Thx,
HTM

Double check the INSTALL file. Make sure you created a ScriptAlias and that apache is running as the user you configured with and run the permission checking script to check the files.

Honestly etting up mailman is paiful, especially with it web interface side.

Currently I have the following problem:

My DocumentRoot is: /usr/local as opposed to /var/www/html

I set Alias and AliasScript, and use nobody as opposed to apache, now I
enter: http://mydomain.com/mailman/create, it tells me object not found;
if I try http://mydomain.com/mailman/cgi-bin/create, it gives me lots of bizard info;

now if I try: http://mydomain.com/cgi-bin/create, it shows me the interface I expect:

Create a hwswworld.com Mailing List ...

After I fill out all info, and hit Create List,

I got object not found again (http://mydomain.com/mailman/create), why?

How may I fix it?

Thx,
HTM

Can you post a copy of your httpd.conf file.

I am sorry this system again does not allow me post, anyway here
is a diff between my httpd.conf and /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

User apache
Grpup apache
->
User nobody
Group nobody

DocumentRoot "/var/www/html"
-> DocumentRoot "usr/local"

<Directory "/var/www/html">
-> <Directory "usr/local">

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/var/www/cgi-bin"
-> ScriptAlias /cgi/bin "/usr/local/mailman/cgi-bin"

<Directory "/var/www/cgi-bin">
-> <Directory "/usr/local/mailman/cgi-bin">

That's it, I put mailman installation under /usr/local

David,

Finally I got my copy/paste problem fixed, pls take a look at my httpd.conf
fopr mailman

Thx,
HTM

BrowserMatch "Microsoft Data Access Internet Publishing Provider" redirect-carefully
BrowserMatch "^WebDrive" redirect-carefully

Ok - for a start I would change everything back to the default config - it is not a good way to configure apache - then try adding:

Again with your suggestion, I just add those 2 sections (but moving mailman
from /usr/local to default apache root doc location), and it works well.



Have a great weekend

HTM

Is that sending mail to subscribe@lists.mydomain.com?
or admin_user_name-subscribe@lists.mydomain.com?

Thx,
HTM

#
##NAME: ADDRESS:0
#
# Address to listen on, can be set to a single IP address.
#

#ADDRESS=real_ip_addr

ADDRESS=0

##NAME: PORT:1
#
# Port numbers that connections are accepted on. The default is 143,
# the standard IMAP port.
#
# Multiple port numbers can be separated by commas. When multiple port
# numbers are used it is possible to select a specific IP address for a
# given port as "ip.port". For example, "127.0.0.1.900,192.68.0.1.900"
# accepts connections on port 900 on IP addresses 127.0.0.1 and 192.68.0.1
# The previous ADDRESS setting is a default for ports that do not have
# a specified IP address.

PORT=143

##NAME: AUTHSERVICE:0
#
# It's possible to authenticate using a different 'service' parameter
# depending on the connection's port. This only works with authentication
# modules that use the 'service' parameter, such as PAM. Example:
#
# AUTHSERVICE143=imap
# AUTHSERVICE993=imaps

##NAME: MAXDAEMONS:0
#
# Maximum number of IMAP servers started
#

MAXDAEMONS=40

##NAME: MAXPERIP:0
#
# Maximum number of connections to accept from the same IP address

MAXPERIP=4

##NAME: PIDFILE:0
#
# File where couriertcpd will save its process ID
#

PIDFILE=/mail/var/tmp/imapd.pid

##NAME: TCPDOPTS:0

# Miscellaneous couriertcpd options that shouldn't be changed.
#

TCPDOPTS="-nodnslookup -noidentlookup"

##NAME: AUTHMODULES:0
#
# Authentication modules. Here's the default list:
#
# authdaemon
#
# The default is set during the initial configuration.
#

AUTHMODULES="authdaemon"

##NAME: AUTHMODULES_ORIG:0
#
# For use by webadmin

AUTHMODULES_ORIG="authdaemon"

##NAME: DEBUG_LOGIN:0
#
# Dump additional login diagnostics to syslog
#
# DEBUG_LOGIN=0 - turn off login debugging
# DEBUG_LOGIN=1 - turn on login debugging
# DEBUG_LOGIN=2 - turn on login debugging + log passwords too

DEBUG_LOGIN=0

##NAME: IMAP_CAPABILITY:1
#
# IMAP_CAPABILITY specifies what most of the response should be to the
# CAPABILITY command.
#
# If you have properly configured Courier to use CRAM-MD5 or CRAM-SHA1
# authentication (see INSTALL), set IMAP_CAPABILITY as follows:
#
# IMAP_CAPABILITY="IMAP4rev1 UIDPLUS CHILDREN NAMESPACE THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT THREAD=REFERENCES SORT QUOTA AUTH=CRAM-MD5 AUTH=CRAM-SHA1 IDLE"
#

IMAP_CAPABILITY="IMAP4rev1 UIDPLUS CHILDREN NAMESPACE THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT THREAD=REFERENCES SORT QUOTA IDLE"

#
# For use by webadmin

IMAP_CAPABILITY_ORIG="IMAP4rev1 UIDPLUS CHILDREN NAMESPACE THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT THREAD=REFERENCES SORT QUOTA AUTH=CRAM-MD5 AUTH=CRAM-SHA1 IDLE"

##NAME: IMAP_IDLE_TIMEOUT:0
#
# This setting controls how often
# the server polls for changes to the folder, in IDLE mode (in seconds).

IMAP_IDLE_TIMEOUT=60

##NAME: IMAP_CAPABILITY_TLS:0
#
# The following setting will advertise SASL PLAIN authentication after
# STARTTLS is established. If you want to allow SASL PLAIN authentication
# with or without TLS then just comment this out, and add AUTH=PLAIN to
# IMAP_CAPABILITY

IMAP_CAPABILITY_TLS="$IMAP_CAPABILITY AUTH=PLAIN"

##NAME: IMAP_TLS_ORIG:0
#
# For use by webadmin

IMAP_CAPABILITY_TLS_ORIG="$IMAP_CAPABILITY_ORIG AUTH=PLAIN"

##NAME: IMAP_DISABLETHREADSORT:0
#
# Set IMAP_DISABLETHREADSORT to disable the THREAD and SORT commands -
# server side sorting and threading.
#
# Those capabilities will still be advertised, but the server will reject
# them. Set this option if you want to disable all the extra load from
# server-side threading and sorting. Not advertising those capabilities
# will simply result in the clients reading the entire folder, and sorting
# it on the client side. That will still put some load on the server.
# advertising these capabilities, but rejecting the commands, will stop this
# silliness.
#

IMAP_DISABLETHREADSORT=0

##NAME: IMAP_CHECK_ALL_FOLDERS:0
#
# Set IMAP_CHECK_ALL_FOLDERS to 1 if you want the server to check for new
# mail in every folder. Not all IMAP clients use the IMAP's new mail
# indicator, but some do. Normally new mail is checked only in INBOX,
# because it is a comparatively time consuming operation, and it would be
# a complete waste of time unless mail filters are used to deliver
# mail directly to folders.
#
# When IMAP clients are used which support new mail indication, and when
# mail filters are used to sort incoming mail into folders, setting
# IMAP_CHECK_ALL_FOLDERS to 1 will allow IMAP clients to announce new
# mail in folders. Note that this will result in slightly more load on the
# server.
#

IMAP_CHECK_ALL_FOLDERS=0

##NAME: IMAP_OBSOLETE_CLIENT:0
#
# Set IMAP_OBSOLETE_CLIENT if your IMAP client expects \\NoInferiors to mean
# what \\HasNoChildren really means.

IMAP_OBSOLETE_CLIENT=0

##NAME: IMAP_ULIMITD:0
#
# IMAP_ULIMITD sets the maximum size of the data segment of the server
# process. The value of IMAP_ULIMITD is simply passed to the "ulimit -d"
# command (or ulimit -v). The argument to ulimi sets the upper limit on the
# size of the data segment of the server process, in kilobytes. The default
# value of 65536 sets a very generous limit of 64 megabytes, which should
# be more than plenty for anyone.
#
# This feature is used as an additional safety check that should stop
# any potential denial-of-service attacks that exploit any kind of
# a memory leak to exhaust all the available memory on the server.
# It is theoretically possible that obscenely huge folders will also
# result in the server running out of memory when doing server-side
# sorting (by my calculations you have to have at least 100,000 messages
# in a single folder, for that to happen).

IMAP_ULIMITD=65536

##NAME: IMAP_USELOCKS:0
#
# Setting IMAP_USELOCKS to 1 will use dot-locking to support concurrent
# multiple access to the same folder. This incurs slight additional
# overhead. Concurrent multiple access will still work without this setting,
# however occasionally a minor race condition may result in an IMAP client
# downloading the same message twice.
#

IMAP_USELOCKS=0

##NAME: IMAP_ENHANCEDIDLE:0
#
# If Courier was compiled with the File Alteration Monitor, setting
# IMAP_ENHANCEDIDLE to 1 enables enhanced IDLE mode, where multiple
# clients may open the same folder concurrently, and receive updates to
# folder contents in realtime. See the imapd(8) man page for additional
# information.
#
# IMPORTANT: IMAP_USELOCKS *MUST* also be set to 1, and IDLE must be included
# in the IMAP_CAPABILITY list.
#

IMAP_ENHANCEDIDLE=0

##NAME: IMAP_TRASHFOLDERNAME:0
#
# The name of the magic trash Folder. For MSOE compatibility,
# you can set IMAP_TRASHFOLDERNAME="Deleted Items".
#
# IMPORTANT: If you change this, you must also change IMAP_EMPTYTRASH

IMAP_TRASHFOLDERNAME=Trash

##NAME: IMAP_EMPTYTRASH:0
#
# The following setting is optional, and causes messages from the given
# folder to be automatically deleted after the given number of days.
# IMAP_EMPTYTRASH is a comma-separated list of folder:days. The default
# setting, below, purges 7 day old messages from the Trash folder.
# Another useful setting would be:
#
# IMAP_EMPTYTRASH=Trash:7,Sent:30
#
# This would also delete messages from the Sent folder (presumably copies
# of sent mail) after 30 days. This is a global setting that is applied to
# every mail account, and is probably useful in a controlled, corporate
# environment.
#
# Important: the purging is controlled by CTIME, not MTIME (the file time
# as shown by ls). It is perfectly ordinary to see stuff in Trash that's
# a year old. That's the file modification time, MTIME, that's displayed.
# This is generally when the message was originally delivered to this
# mailbox. Purging is controlled by a different timestamp, CTIME, which is
# changed when the file is moved to the Trash folder (and at other times too).
#
# You might want to disable this setting in certain situations - it results
# in a stat() of every file in each folder, at login and logout.
#

IMAP_EMPTYTRASH=Trash:7

##NAME: IMAP_MOVE_EXPUNGE_TO_TRASH:0
#
# Set IMAP_MOVE_EXPUNGE_TO_TRASH to move expunged messages to Trash. This
# effectively allows an undo of message deletion by fishing the deleted
# mail from trash. Trash can be manually expunged as usually, and mail
# will get automatically expunged from Trash according to IMAP_EMPTYTRASH.
#
# NOTE: shared folders are still expunged as usual. Shared folders are
# not affected.
#

IMAP_MOVE_EXPUNGE_TO_TRASH=0


##NAME: OUTBOX:0
#
# The next set of options deal with the "Outbox" enhancement.
# Uncomment the following setting to create a special folder, named
# INBOX.Outbox
#
# OUTBOX=.Outbox

##NAME: SENDMAIL:0
#
# If OUTBOX is defined, mail can be sent via the IMAP connection by copying
# a message to the INBOX.Outbox folder. For all practical matters,
# INBOX.Outbox looks and behaves just like any other IMAP folder. If this
# folder doesn't exist it must be created by the IMAP mail client, just
# like any other IMAP folder. The kicker: any message copied or moved to
# this folder is will be E-mailed by the Courier-IMAP server, by running
# the SENDMAIL program. Therefore, messages copied or moved to this
# folder must be well-formed RFC-2822 messages, with the recipient list
# specified in the To:, Cc:, and Bcc: headers. Courier-IMAP relies on
# SENDMAIL to read the recipient list from these headers (and delete the Bcc:
# header) by running the command "$SENDMAIL -oi -t -f $SENDER", with the
# message piped on standard input. $SENDER will be the return address
# of the message, which is set by the authentication module.
#
# DO NOT MODIFY SENDMAIL, below, unless you know what you're doing.
#

SENDMAIL=/mail/bin/sendmail

##NAME: HEADERFROM:0
#
# For administrative and oversight purposes, the return address, $SENDER
# will also be saved in the X-IMAP-Sender mail header. This header gets
# added to the sent E-mail (but it doesn't get saved in the copy of the
# message that's saved in the folder)
#
# WARNING - By enabling OUTBOX above, *every* IMAP mail client will receive
# the magic OUTBOX treatment. Therefore advance LARTing is in order for
# _all_ of your lusers, until every one of them is aware of this. Otherwise if
# OUTBOX is left at its default setting - a folder name that might be used
# accidentally - some people may be in for a rude surprise. You can redefine
# the name of the magic folder by changing OUTBOX, above. You should do that
# and pick a less-obvious name. Perhaps brand it with your organizational
# name ( OUTBOX=.WidgetsAndSonsOutbox )

HEADERFROM=X-IMAP-Sender

##NAME: IMAPDSTART:0
#
# IMAPDSTART is not used directly. Rather, this is a convenient flag to
# be read by your system startup script in /etc/rc.d, like this:
#
# . ${sysconfdir}/imapd
#
# case x$IMAPDSTART in
# x[yY]*)
# /mail/libexec/imapd.rc start
# ;;
# esac
#
# The default setting is going to be NO, so you'll have to manually flip
# it to yes.

IMAPDSTART=NO
