#qmail on EFNet channel site

Welcome to a temporary plug site for #qmail on EFNet. Eventually there will be more here, but I'm still in the process of making things how they should be.

Frequently Given Answers

Patches written by myself

badmailfrom-x-relayclient.patch - Patch to qmail-smtpd to prevent badmailfrom checks if RELAYCLIENT is set.
qmail-smtpd-viruscan-logging.patch - Patch to Russell Nelson's qmail-smtpd-viruscan patch to log when a message is rejected.
relay-ctrl-3.1.1-ucspi-compliance.patch - Patch to Bruce Guenter's relay-ctrl package to make it more UCSPI compliant.
ucspi-ssl-0.50-postsetuid.patch - Patch to ucspi-ssl 0.50 to have it load the certificate/key/dh/etc files before changing its uid/gid. This functionality was added to 0.68 as an optional command line parameter.
freshclam-foreground.patch - Patch to clamav to give freshclam an option to stay in the foreground. Useful for running freshclam under DJB's daemontools or Gerrit Pape's runit package. Note: as of 0.83, clamav has support for the Foreground directive in freshclam.conf

Various files from my qmail setup

smtpd-run - my /service/qmail-smtpd/run script, I do not have smtp auth
mailfilter - my maildrop filter file. I call it using '|maildrop' in my .qmail file
imapd-run - a supervise/tcpserver based courier-imap startup script I attempted to write. It seemed to work, but I cannot guarantee that it will work for you.
clear - a handy service to set up with daemontools to be able to clear your readproctitle service errors

Scripts and utilities

CIDR2tcprules.pl - converts CIDR notation to tcprules compatible range format.
fake_mta-2-1memphis.src.rpm - fake_mta package to trick RPM based systems into thinking you have an MTA installed. This way you can install qmail yourself and still use RPMs! I didn't write this but I can never seem to find it when I need it, so here it is. This version also has the update so it provides /usr/sbin/sendmail (some newer packages were barfing if you tried to install them)
