2) Another alternative: Turn on aliases on cyrusv2d mailer (add F=A flag)
*.mc file: dnl cyrusv2 release B - http://anfi.homeunix.net/sendmail/cyrusv2.html MODIFY_MAILER_FLAGS(`CYRUSV2D',`+A') MAILER(`cyrusv2')
aliases file: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
P.S. You can make sendmail check cyrus mailbox presence when replying to "RCPT TO:" - http://anfi.homeunix.net/sendmail/rtcyrus2.html
I'm having a bit of a problem with the above tht I hope I can get some help with. I realize that it's only marginally related to Cyrus IMAP, but the server is in the mix so I thought I would start here for help.
I'm using cyrus-imapd 2.2.3, sendmail 8.12.11, and MailScanner 4.26.8.
I've recently started getting mail bounced back to non-existent users in my domain (I.E. returned spam) so I implemented the check described in the above link. For checking the presence of a mailbox, it works fine and these bounced messages will be rejected immediatly, even for my virtual domains.
Which variant have you used ? [ there are three: mailertable, stickyhub, user]
My problem is that I'm also using MailMan 2.0.13 to host some email lists for the virtual domains. Mail for these lists is usually resolved in the aliases file to go through a mailman command: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: "|wrapper post listname"
With that entry (and all the others necessary for the list) in the aliases
file, sendmail complains about "cannot alias non-local names". Various
searches point to the 'A' flag that Andrzej mentions above. I added that
in, with no change in results.
What is reported by the commands below: # which mailer is selected for [EMAIL PROTECTED] before aliases echo '3,0 [EMAIL PROTECTED]' | sendmail -bt # which flags are set for cyrus mailers echo '=M' | sendmail -bt | grep cyrus
If I remove the domain name from the alias: listname: "|wrapper post listname"
I no longer get the "cannot alias" complaints from sendmail, but now the mail is failing because there is no actual imap mailbox for the mail lists.
You can use virtusertable to redirect [EMAIL PROTECTED] to listname.
Since version 8.10 virtusertable can be consulted for some non local email domains (domain handled by mailertable).
I've gone around on this a few times and probably gotten myself totally confused. Do I have an incompatible mix of features that I'm trying to implement or do I just have something totally hosed in the configuration.
You can use virtusertable rewriting or you can try to debug why "cyrus aliases with domain" does not work [please send replies to question I wrote above]
