Another sendmail question....
by Simon 27 Feb '02

27 Feb '02

Hi again.... I've got a user who wants a copy of all their received mail sending onto another account.. I was thinking of a .forward file but this sends the message and removes it from the server.. It's got to be a copy, so he can pick his mail from 2 different accounts..... Also, anyone know of an auto-responder for sendmail.. Simon

Possible yes, but easy? No, not when I last tried. If your lucky, someone will have a quick HOWTO on that one, but I'm not sure that many people still use sendmail if they have a choice. Maybe I'm wrong. > Limiting mailbox size.. I believe it's done using quotas? Can anyone point > me to a good resource to figure this one out.... Is there any other way > other than with quotas..... If there is some support for it in the MTA, then you could do it that way, but that would probably be less certain than using quotas. To get started with quotas, try http://webdocs.essex.ac.uk/LDP/HOWTO/mini/Quota.html > I've been told that qmail does all of the above without any problems.. Any > views on this ? Sounds like the normal rubbish qmail apologists say without thinking. Any MTA will do quotas and you could force a limited number of recipients with any MTA. It just depends how many hoops one has to jump through. If you do use qmail, remember that it is restricted (non-free for Debian) and realise what you're getting into. -- MJR

Hi Guys, A few questions for Sendmail..... Is it possible to set the maximum recipients for an e-mail ? If so, any pointers please... Just I've got users sending a half meg file to 200 or so mail addresses!! Limiting mailbox size.. I believe it's done using quotas? Can anyone point me to a good resource to figure this one out.... Is there any other way other than with quotas..... I've been told that qmail does all of the above without any problems.. Any views on this ? Simon

Meeting in Norwich, UEA, Sunday 24th Feb
by John Billings 24 Feb '02

24 Feb '02

Hi all, The next meeting will be taking place in Common Room A, Nelson Court at the University of East Anglia on Sunday between 2pm and 5pm. Directions to the uea are available from www.uea.ac.uk, and there are mapboards on the campus near the main car park that should get you to the common room easily enough. Post meeting drinks will happen in the Union bar, 5pm - 6pm, altho this is not a hard limit, and may well go on longer.. Rumour is that some beer in the Union is current £1 a pint... not that that should effect whether you turn up or not... ;-) Label your kit, if you're bringing it along, and post here to let us know what to look forward too... I will almost certainally be there, hangover from saturday permitting, and will be bringing my Pico Laptop, running debian unstable, and possibly my other Linux machine, if i've failed to get adsl going on it by then. It'll be my first meeting, and hey, this is my first meeting announcment... firsts all around.. Hope to see you there... J. PS.. please post this to other relevent places, if you can think of any.

ADV: Job vacancy in North West London
by Martyn Drake 22 Feb '02

22 Feb '02

Hi folks, I wouldn't normally post something like this, but this might be of interest to some of you. There is a systems administrator's position at a North West London ISP (who also provide specialist and hard-to-find PC and Mac components as well as fully built PCs - see http://www.webcoin.co.uk, http://www.pc500.net and http://www.spot5.com for details). Roles will include the installation, maintenance and monitoring of Linux servers (based around a mixture of Red Hat 7.2, Slackware 8.0, and Debian) as well as Sun Solaris 8 on Ultra-SPARC IIe's, some FreeBSD boxes (mainly workstations, though) and a wireless private network powered by Debian proxy servers/gateways. Other duties include supporting the development team with whatever requests they have for installing applications on the servers (such as Postgres and MySQL installations, Apache configuration, Exim and Sendmail configuration, etc). You will also be supporting clients by email and telephone and resolving any problems they may have with their web site or email. There will also be the occasion to visit Redbus for maintenance of the server hardware, or to install new kit. If you're interested, please email me directly off the list for more information.
