Going from another 1ist (UNIX based majordomo), you can set a 1ist name,
that is to be added to the subject line before what is given by the sender,
as well as make the 1ist address the default "reply to".  I'm looking for
these features in Worldmail.  Does anyone know how to enable this if it's
even possible?

   I am finally throwing in the towel.  I have had too many problems with 
worldmail. I am going to outsource our email.  I have 50 mailboxes and 120 
aliases.  The ISP we use to co-locate our web server is going to charge us 
$50 per month to handle our email for us, so I have no more headaches over

My question is: I have a worldmail server 10 user base license, a 15 user 
add on and a 25 user add-on license, which I am no longer going to be able 
to use. Can I sell them or give them away? Anyone interested? (I would give

One of the extra things that we (Critical Path - ex-ISOCOR) bring to the
field is outsourced email [Worldmail is based on old version of ISOCOR
N-PLEX]
.
We have around 12 million mailboxes using our outsourced services.

SMTP is for message submission to mail server.
If the submitted message is to go out to another mail server - then it is
relayed.

The issue in this area is generally related to configuring your box so that
your local users can submit mail for:
a) delivery to each other
b) delivery to outside
but people from the outside can do a) but not b) [some people do not want a)
either - e.g. from Blacklisted origin]

SMTP means any messages sent using the server, regardless of whether 
the recipient is local or not.

Mail Relay means messages sent through the server, where the 
recipient is not on the server.

Typically, users within your own network need access to Mail Relay as 
well as SMTP, so they can send messages to anyone, anywhere. 
However, anyone not on your own network usually needs only SMTP 
access, so they can send mail to your own users, but they can't use 
your server to inject unsolicited bulk email (UBE).  If you find a 
site that is sending UBE to your users, you might want to turn off 
SMTP access for that site, so they can't talk to you at all.

   I checked cp.net for pricing before I went with my isp. The price was 
way out of the ballpark. It was something like $250 per month for my 50 
users.  My ISP is charging me $50 per month for my 50 users. (Of course, I 
also spend $400 a month with them for co-location of 2 servers, so that is 
a discount).

You know, I'd object to Paul's use of this forum to flog
his company's products and services.

Except that it is a useful vehicle for Critical Path to keep
getting the same message:

   "Your products and services are over-priced if
     you want to play in the market space in which
     WorldMail plays."

I'd object even less if there were any signs that Critical

Subject: WorldMail setup difficulties

Hello,

I have just bought a copy of WorldMail 2 server and am having
difficulties in setting it up. I would appreciate any light the list may
be
able to throw on these problems. Incidentally I have also sent this to
the Qualcomm tech support group.

Problem statement
=================
Having set up my server I can send mail from a client to other clients
within my network and also outside (via my ISP). A recipient within the
network can receive and read mail sent from within the network but not
from outside. In other words, mail is never being picked up from the
ISP. I understand that I cannot expect WorldMail to talk to my ISP's
POP3 server: I have always been under the impression though that the
smtp server at my ISP could send mail to me as well as receive it from
me, so thought I could do it that way.

Background
==========
I have a network of three desktop machines which connect together using
a 3com ISDN LAN Connect box. This box acts as a four-port hub, DNS and
my gateway connection via ISDN to my ISP. Following the suggested method
from 3com I originally set up my network with a set of ip addresses in
the range 192.168.1.*, with 1 being the LAN connect box and 2, 3 and 4
being the workstations. I have given my local network the name
impeccable.net, assuming that this is purely a local network. I have a
domain, impeccable.org.uk, assigned to me and managed by my ISP,
freenetname.co.uk

With this arrangement one or more of the PCs can connect to my ISP for
web or mail usage. However, when mail is delivered from my ISP the POP
server simply delivers all mail destined for *.impeccable.org.uk to the
mail client on the PC in use, so that mail for both of the major users
is being mixed between the machines client mailboxes. 

My purpose in buying WorldMail was to get a product which I could use to
make regular connections to my ISP, pull down all mail destined for
*.impeccable.org.uk and then file the messages as appropriate into one
or other of the client IMAP mailboxes. That way any of us could use any
PC to read our mail and not get it mixed up with other people's mail or
on other PC desktops.

Setting up WorldMail I decided to keep the local domain called
impeccable.net. This may have been a mistake, but I didn't think I could
call my local network impeccable.org.uk because my ISP does not allocate
static ip addresses and I thought I would be in trouble with them if I
start using their ip address range on my own machines! I
have thought about setting my home network up with the name
impeccable.org.uk but keeping the ip address range 192.168.1.*. However,
NT doesn't allow me to create a workgroup name longer than 15 characters
so that won't work.

I'm stuck - can you please suggest how I can move forward? I'd hate to
think I have wasted my money on buying this product if I can't use it!

As suggested in the manual, I have created and attached the file
ismtpims.cfg to this message.


Ian.

Yes, but you need to make sure your ISP knows this, as they have to 
stop delivering mail to your POP mailbox and start holding it in an 
SMTP queue, waiting for you to connect and retrieve it, or, if you 
are always connected and have at least one static IP address, they 
can just deliver it as it arrives.

If you are intermittently connected, when you talk to them, find out 
what method they use to know when you have connected and thus are 
ready for your mail.  Some SMTP servers know this when you make an 
SMTP connection to them (to send mail), most support ETRN, some use 
another means.  You then also need to configure your WorldMail server 
to connect and issue ETRN on schedule.

You shouldn't appropriate a domain name not assigned to you.  If you 
haven't registered impeccable.net it's best not to use it.  You can 
use impeccable.org.uk as the domain.  This really doesn't have 
anything to do with NT's workgroup.  Instead it is configured using 
NT's TCP protocol settings.  You set the WorldMail machine to have a 
machine name of mail, for example, and a domain name of 
impeccable.org.uk.

This indicates that your ISP is still delivering domain mail to a POP 
mailbox.  Note that none of your client machines should be connecting 
to the ISP's mail servers, instead

This is one of the purposes of WorldMail.

See above.  The domain name and the workgroup are separate.  You can 
call your workgroup 'impeccable', for example, and your domain 
'impeccable.org.uk', and all should be well.

Note that you need to configure a local domain in WorldMail for 
'impeccable.org.uk', otherwise it won't know that it is supposed to 
handle mail for that domain.  Then you create mailboxes in it for all 
your local users.  Then you configure the mail clients on the local 
PCs to use the WorldMail system for POP and SMTP.  If you use any 
version of Eudora, you can autoconfigure settings for each client. 
This is explained in the WorldMail and Eudora manuals.

Normally you send that file to Eudora WorldMail technical support, 
not the public mailing list.

Sorry if it offended.

I know that many people have nejoyed what Worldmail can do.  I know that the
product that Worldmail was based on can do much more and when I see
complaints that something is not as they like and I know that the original
product that Worldmail was based on can do what is called for then I bite my
lip and try not to say anything.  But when I saw that Al was going to move
away then I was pained and I guess I tried too hard to show him that there
were other ways to stay in the fold.

Sorry again.

Does Freenetname allow you to access (read) mail using SMTP?
Their on-line help only seems to mention POP3 mail collection.

In any case ... with a Dynamic IP address you are likely to have problems
trying to use something like ETRN (would need a "trick" DNS update at their
end for this to work).

You could try something like PULLMAIL - run from a batch file submitted via
the at batch processor (AT).
This would bring the mail down and then re-submit it locally to your
Worldmail server for inward distribution.

[try http://www.swsoft.co.uk/pullmail - this is certainly where it used to
be]

Hi!

Have you experienced the Y2K problem of WorldMail Server ?

I can't decide whether internet mail service stopping related to the Y2K
of WorldMail Server or it related to the Y2K of HP NetServer Computer
Hardware.

If system date set to 1999, internet mail service is not stop. Otherwise
if it set to 2000, internet mail service stop within 5 hours.

Help me.

Thanks for reading this.

Subject: Re: Have you experienced the Y2K problem of WorldMail Server ?

We had a Y2K problem where the Management Center got
a totally obscure 'Network Error' problem trying to connect
to the mail server. Just that, in a meaningless message.

The server itself kept running, but we couldn't control it. Qualcomm
Tech Support didn't show up for work on the first business day
of Y2K..

We ended up having to:

1) back up the mail config using the nibl utility. (How to do so
     is one of the sparse pieces of useful info on the web site.)
2) de-install all of World Mail, wipe out the directories and the
     remaining registry entries that the lame installation utilities
     left laying around. This is very important, as the bug was
     re-triggered by these remnants. Go into RegEdit and find
     'Qualcomm' and 'WorldMail' and clean up all the junk.
3) Re-install World Mail cold
4) Restore using nibl

That got us back up and cooking.

When tech support finally got around to us, days later, they denied
that there were ANY Y2K bugs in their product.

Yeah, right.

I have had tech support at Qualcomm confirm that there is at least 
one Y2K problem - you get a date of 100 (instead of 2000) in the

Subject: Secure outgoing mail.

Some persons within the company have suddenly become afraid
that someone will come in (physically) from outside, and use
our computers to send mails. Thus making it look like it is a mail
from a person within our company. (Did all that make any sense?) :-)

The question is: Is there a way to make the users type in a pasword
if they want to send a mail.  (Dear, I'm realy bad at explaining
things.)
A password for SMTP if you want. Maybe I should asy that we run
World Mail 2.0 on a NT4 server.

I hope that someone knows what I'm try to explain and have som kind
of solution.

Yes, we discovered this issue last month and informed Qualcomm the first week
of January. We discovered that any command sent to the listserve function of
WorldMail returned an email with the date in the year 0100. And so far, all
the commands do work. To date, any response to those commands will be the
oldest mail in our inbox.

I have experienced no problems changing over to 2000. I can access the 
management center, no problems. The date is correct on all distribution 
lists'. We're running Worldmail V2.0 on Win NT 4.0 server with service pack 
6a also.

Hi again,

OK, I now see that our server also behaves like that. I thought you meant
messages distributed via the list. I hadn't looked at the autoreply
messages from the list management agent.

Hi!
Have you experienced the Y2K problem of WorldMail Server ?
I can't decide whether internet mail service stopping related to the Y2K 
of WorldMail Server or it related to the Y2K of HP NetServer Computer 
Hardware.
If system date set to 1999, internet mail service is not stop. Otherwise 
if it set to 2000, internet mail service stop within 5 hours.
Help me.

Subject: Worldmail install fails because of (claimed) lack of admin privileges
Date: Wed, 9 Feb 2000 11:33:31 -0600

I run a small NT LAN with a single copy of Worldmail (35 users) on the
primary domain controller.  For reasons not relevant to this mail, I had to
reinstall the PDC from scratch.  When I finally got to reinstalling
Worldmail, it claimed that I must be logged on as administrator, even when I
was logged on as domain admin, local admin, and other users with admin
priviledges.  This the approximate order in which I reinstalled the server:

NT Client for MSDOS (to attempt to acess to NT server install image on
remote machine - didn't work)
Win95
NT Server 4.0
NT Server 4.0 (again, but not as domain controller, so it would accept
domain's existing SID)
NT Service Pack 6a
Netscape 4.6
IE 5.01 (install failed several times, so I think about 4 install attempts
total)
NT Option Pack (IIS and Index Server)
Service Pack 6a again
MS Office 97
Office 97 Service Release 2
Service Pack 6a again
MS Backoffice (2 failures due to corrupted install image, finally removed
all "backoffice" instances from registry by hand)
Worldmail 1.0 from CD (failed for reason given above)
Worldmail 2.0 from file (ditto)

I realize this was quite an ugly reinstallation, and I believe I managed to
demonstrate all possible shortcomings of installing stuff on NT.  However,
seeing as that none of the other installations of specific software failed
because of claimed lack of admin privileges, I'm very puzzled why the
Worldmail installer would claim such.  Would anyone happen to know precisely
what registry keys/group memberships/admin priviledges the installer checks
for?

I should add that a backup copy of Worldmail 1.0 (subsequently up'ed to 2.0)
that I installed on the backup domain controller (NT 4.0 Server, service
pack 5) gave me no difficulties.  So could this perhaps be an
incompatibility with NT Service Pack 6a?  I'm rather apprehensive of testing
this theory out on the BDC, because I fear that could render ALL my servers
incapable of running Worldmail.

Many Thanks

Ben,

I don't think your problem stems from Service Pack 6a.  We are new users of
WorldMail and are using it to host email accounts for the Georgia Academy
for the Blind.  I installed NT 4.0 from a copy of the CD \I386 directory,
Installed IE 5 and then applied Service Pack 6a.  WorldMail 2.0 (251 users)
was then loaded without incident.  I was loged-on as a domain administrator.

Subject: Shared Folder Access Problems

Greetings Worldmail wizards!

I running a worldmail server for 12 users that all need to be able to
access each other's mailboxes.  I have set up each user as a shared
folder with an associated message store user.  Our IMAP4 client is
Netscape Communicator.  My problem is this:

Some users cannot access mailboxes of other users-  When they try to
access the folder, they are told that it does not exist.  They are then
presented with an accurate listing of messages, but cannot open any of
them due to the same error.

We are also experiencing a similar problem with using the 'Trash' folder
on the server.  When a user deletes a message, if Netscape is set to
move deleted messages into the 'Trash' folder, if sometimes fails with a
similar "Mailbox does not exist" error.  We have no problems deleting
messages if the user has chosen to only mark messages as deleted (and
not move them to the Trash folder).

I suspect that my problems stem from differences in how the Worldmail
server and Netscape negotiate IMAP Namespaces, but I am not an expert in
this area and would greatly appreciate any help anyone can provide.  Any
ideas?

================
My guess is that this is an issue with the operating system, not with World
Mail.
Have you checked both the share permissions and the file permissions of your 
directory tree?  By default, "Everyone" has full control for both share
permissions
and file permissions, and this should work for the purposes you describe.
If someone
has changed the defaults, then this could be causing you problems.

Subject: Worldmail - Redirecting off-site, cannot do

Hi -

Dumb problem with Worldmail. I have got off-site relaying disabled, as 
every site should.

(Relaying is the practice of spammers using your machine to launder / 
forward messages that are coming from them and which they have addressed 
back out to victims in the outside world. To disable it, go to Internet 
Mail / Security / Message-Relaying and tell Worldmail the list of all your 
local machines/subnets.)

Unfortunately, I just discovered that this also kills off all my aliases 
that point off-site. Specifically, if "foo@ithaca dot com" is an alias I've 
created that points to "foooutthere@outthere dot com", and a message comes in 
from the outside world for foo, Worldmail rejects the message with a 
"Relaying not allowed" error.

This appears to be a botch in the Worldmail definition of "relaying" -- the 
relay prohibition should apply to messages that were actually -addressed- 
back out to the outside world, rather than to messages that were 
re-addressed by Worldmail itself.

Sigh. I've had several such low-volume aliases defined since forever (I was 
grandfathering some old e-mail names.) Apparently all of them have always 
been broken for off-site use.

So, killing relaying has the side effect of killing all aliases that aren't 
local. This seems like, if true, it must be common problem. Hasn't anyone 
noticed this before? Or do I have something odd going on with my set-up?

thanks much for any enlightenment.

Garry

PS - The workaround I've found is to create, instead of each alias, a 
distribution list with a single entry. Worldmail then doesn't perceive the 
problem.

Subject: Re: Worldmail - Redirecting off-site, cannot do

Hi,

It's a known problem with WorldMail. Here is the description from Eudora's
Support Knowledge Base:

Document ID: 1891HQ
Problem: If you enable security settings for WorldMail, that will
effectively disable any aliases that you have set up.
Solution: The only solution at this time is to delete the alias and
recreate it as a Distribution list. Then add the address to the
distribution list that the mail is to be redirected to. One advantage to
this is that this method will also allow you to alias mail to more than one
outside account. Under the Automatic Management tab for the list
configuration you will need to set the List Type to Closed and List access
control to Private. This will ensure that unauthorized users will not be
able to access the list.

You can also create an inactive user instead of an alias, which sends a
non-delivery report with a customized text string back to the original
sender, e.g. "John has moved and his new e-mail address is
john@outthere dot com". This will not relay the message, but has the advantage
that people will be informed about address changes.

Subject: Problems connecting to Netcom

Does anyone else have trouble passing messages to the domain
netcom.com?

When we relay via our ISP, no problem. No problem with other domains
so far, using direct DNS lookup of the MX records.

But with Netcom, we connect in INIT state for about 5 minutes, then get
'couldn't open association with <ip address of netcom mail server>' and
fail with 'unexpected loss of connection.  We do that in sequence through
the 6 or so MX records from netcom.com, and eventually give up.

Like I say, we do fine with a whole range of other domains, but this one is
a real problem.

Netcom tech support is little to no help on the matter. They claim it's us
giving them a 'connection refused.'  But we're already connected.

And besides, I'm able to send receive mail directly from netcom's mail
servers.

I'll reply to my own problem.

Netcom is one of those oldy-moldy ISPs running SunOS, and their
sendmail program does an AUTH prior to issuing any more commands.

My firewall was denying AUTH requests (very minor security exposure
is inherant) and so the connection was crashing.

From: Ric Wall <ric_wall at informatixinc dot com>
Subject: Renaming domains

The way I see it, domain names are mostly the responsibility of lower-layer
protocols such as IP.  The domain name server (DNS) has to be updated to 
reflect the network address for the new domain.  So, for example, aaa.bbb.cc
has to be mapped to 192.1.1.0   or whatever.

Assuming your workstations resolve names using the same server that they did
before, this will not be a problem.  Also, assuming your users address mail
WITHOUT using the domain name, there will be no need for change.  For instance,
if people are used to sending mail to "johnny"  rather than to
"johnny@xxx.yyy dot zz"
they will not have to change their entry.

I believe you may have to export users on your mail server, since you will
have to 
create a new internet domain in your mail server, although i do not have
experience
with this.

The easiest way that I have found to rename domains and accounts is to run
regedit32 and rename the domain's registry key.  It is located in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/ISOCOR/Services/SMTP/LocalDomains.

It's probably a good idea to back up the registry subtree before you attempt
any changes.

the e-mail domain name from lets say ins.domain1.ethz.ch to
ins.domain2.ethz.ch. Could someone give me some tips about that. I suppose
that it is not possible just to rename it. Can I make second domain on the
same server and than "cut and paste" users? Is it better to export users
(nibl), set up server again and than import the users again? My goal is to
reduce the end user action to the minimum, and of course to minimize my
administration work.

Thanks a lot.

Sorry I don't have any additional input regarding this question, but it
raised a different question in my own mind.

As Ric mentioned below, how do you get Worldmail to allow local email
between users without a fully qualified domain name address(ex:  to "connie"
instead of "connie@somedomain dot com")?  Our clients are using Outlook 2000.

Thanks!

The way I see it, domain names are mostly the responsibility of lower-layer
protocols such as IP.  The domain name server (DNS) has to be updated to 
reflect the network address for the new domain.  So, for example, aaa.bbb.cc
has to be mapped to 192.1.1.0   or whatever.

Assuming your workstations resolve names using the same server that they did
before, this will not be a problem.  Also, assuming your users address mail
WITHOUT using the domain name, there will be no need for change.  For
instance,
if people are used to sending mail to "johnny"  rather than to
"johnny@xxx.yyy dot zz"
they will not have to change their entry.

I believe you may have to export users on your mail server, since you will
have to 
create a new internet domain in your mail server, although i do not have
experience
with this.

Hi there,
we use at our institute WorldMail Server ver.2 and we are very happy with 
it (we only have some problems with relaying and aliases, but thanks to 
this list that is not the problem any more). So, now my question:

Subject: access violation error

Our WorldMail 2.0 system has been running flawlessly for the past 1+ year.
In the last 2 weeks, I am seeing the SMTP service stopping at least once every day.

The error message reads:
SMTPD.exe 
exception: access violation (0ce0000005)
Address: 0x0042e0d7

This error did occur once before when my DNS server was down, and the system was overloaded with queued messages. That is NOT the case today, but just thought I'd mention it.

Is there a way to block users from receiving
executable "exe" attachments ?

No built-in way, but you can create a small filter program to do 
this.  ISOCOR has instructions and an SDK on their web site.  Look 
for IMSFA (Internet Mail Security Filter Architecture).

In the Registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ ISOCOR \ Services 
\ SMTP \ CurrentVersion \ Settings

Create the DWORD AllowUnqualifiedGarbage and set it to 1.

If you have more than one domain you need to specify a default using 
the STRING value DefaultDomain.

Simply put, is there any way to view the password for a user? nibl gives me 
the password but it is encrypted... Even the registry entries have it 
encrypted. Is there a way I can capture the POP3 dialog including the 
password to "capture" the password assuming APOP is not enabled on the client ?

I believe when the user logins with a plain text password, this information
is available from ISOTRACE (of course, you can only run this application
only if you are at the machine where the server is installed). Other than
this all the passwords stored for plain text logins are encrypted with a
one-way encryption function, so having the encrypted password you can never
extract the plain text password.

Subject: Domain aliases (internet and intranet)

I would like to have Worldmail accept mail addresses to both
user at mydomain dot com (my registered domain) and
user at localserver dot localdomain (intranet domain).

I currently have my all users in the Worldmail local domain
"mydomain.com".  I've attempted the settings below, where I set
AllowUnqualifiedGarbage=1, DefaultDomain=mydomain.com, but Worldmail
still reports "MX lookup failure" for messages addressed to
user at localserver dot localdomain.

Must I setup a local DNS that intercepts lookups for "localdomain" for
this to work, or must I setup a custom domain "localdomain" and add
aliases for ALL users in "mydomain.com"?  Either way, a tedious job I'd
just assume avoid.

Thanks.

I think that you would have to add new domain and then add aliases within it
for your users.
Although tedious to type and maintain ... if your user list doesn't change
uch then you could use NIBL to export your current list then cut/paste to
make your new one and then import.

[set up a sample user first to show that it works - and you would then also
see the syntax of the alias "user" when you export.
The "Allow Unqalified Garbage" hack is to allow mail to come in as
fred.bloggs instead of fred.bloggs at domain dot dom - so not really relevant here.
