Hello
I'm currently using procmail 3.21 on a RedHat 7.2 together with sendmail 8
11.6-3.
Pop3 is handled by Teapop 0.3.5.
I wrote some recipies which mark emails with some spam characteristics with
[SPAM]
in the subject line. This works fine as long as I send emails to user
accounts (users
present in /etc/passwd).
However, I configured Teapop to use /mail/users as the basic directory
instead of
/var/spool/mail. All domains on my server are also listed in the
/etc/mail/domain file.
To handle those users without system accounts, I create an entry like
"foo(_at_)bar(_dot_)com foo.bar.com" in the virtusertable and "foo.bar.com:
/mail/users/foo.bar.com"
in the /etc/aliases file. This worksfine for all incoming mails. But
procmail does _not_ do
any parsing/replacing/filtering of the emails. But it does filter emails for
a user present in
/etc/passwd. If I do not enter the aliases to both sendmail files, sendmail
complains that
the user is unknown an rejects the email (I'm testing with a telnet on port
25).
How can I instruct sendmail to pass _all_ emails to procmail (just like it
does for passwd-
accounts)? Plus, why are the emails not piped to procmail? I spent about 1-2
weeks messing
around with lots of pop3 servers to find one who can do text (or mysq)-based
auth instead
of /etc/passwd. I just need to find a solution for this...
Thanks a lot
Sven
