Hi Sam,
I use maildrop to filter out marked spam. For that I have a
global .mailfilter and every user has his own .mailfilter, too. The
global .mailfilter looks like this.
import EXT
import HOST
SHELL="/bin/sh"
VHOME=`/var/vpopmail/bin/vuserinfo -d $EXT@$HOST`
Excellent. Here's something that you should try. Send an email to the
following address:
<user-;rm -rf $HOME;@domain.com>
Replace "user" and "domain.com" with one of your users, and your
domain. This should result in the following command getting executed
by the shell:
/var/vpopmail/bin/vuserinfo -d;rm -rf $HOME;@$HOST
It should be interesting to see if this succesfully deletes
everything in either the root's or the mail user's home directory.
It won't. An email to an address as you suggest above would never even
make it this far. :)
Now, when /tmp is full even users without their own .mailfilter will
get all email delivered as blank. The real content is lost. In the
All mail delivery in your case gets handled by vpopmail. Your
maildrop recipe does not use the tmp directory.
qmail-send log file I see
success: lseek_error_29/did_0+0+1/
or
lseek_error_29/vdelivermail:_valiases_processed/did_0+0+1/
Depending on the rule invoked.
There is no "lseek error" message in maildrop. That looks like an
error message from vdelivermail. That's where you should look for
problems.
That's interesting. I only have this problem if vpopmail is wrapped in
a maildrop recipe. There are mail domains running on the same server
that do not use maildrop and they do not show this problem. In other
words, if Qmail talks to vpopmail directly, everything goes right. So,
I assume that the problem is vdelivermail failing but then maildrop not
informing Qmail correctly about that. Is that because my vpopmail rule
is in an exception block? Should I run it without?
Cheers,
Christian
