• How I configured Qmail + Serialmail + Checkpassword

Objective: Set up a mail system on a dialup under Linux using qmail and serialmail.

Download the source --------------------------------------->

Untar the source files.



Compile qmail:

- cd /qmail - x.x

cp INSTALL.ids IDS

vi IDS - remove everything other than the Linux part
- delete all the ' # ' from the file

- save the file and quit
- chmod -R 755 IDS (this will make it an executable file)
- # ./IDS (this will create the needed control files for qmail - /var/qmail/conrol)
- # make setup check (this will compile qmail in - /var/qmail )
- #./config-fast yourdomain.com (this will tell qmail your domain)

Now copy the file /var/qmail/boot/home to /var/qmail/rc

In rc, change ./Mailbox to ./Maildir/ (or whatever your system is)

That's it - qmail is ready - to run qmail,
- # /var/qmail/rc &

Compile serialmail:

- cd serialmail.x.x
- make setup check

That's it - serialmail installed, easy, 'aint it?

Compile ucspi-tcp:

- cd ucspi-.tcp.x.
- make setup check

Ucspi done!

Compile checkpassword:

- cd checkpassword
- make setup check

Done!

Create a new file /etc/tcp.smtp -
- # vi /etc/tcp.smtp
- insert the IP of your network in this file - eg. 203.152.128.:allow, RELAYCLIENT=" "

Now execute this command as root:
-# tcprules /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb /etc/tcp.smtp.tmp < /etc/tcp.smtp

make sure that tcp.smtp contains the IP of your network.
