To me this whole thing just weakens both companies' position. Anyone who
will let legal squabbles get in the way of keeping mission-critical software
up and running doesn't deserve much business.

Neither Qualcomm, nor the Isocor guys.

This is the kind of crapola that keeps Linux in the forefront.

It is possible to do this with a small custom program, using either 
the IMDA or IMSFA API.

Hi all
I have been "lurking" on this mailing list and a lot of the information is
very helpful dealing with some of my issues. However, this one I have not
seen and probably because no one has asked in awhile or it is so simple that
I missed it the first time around.  Anyway, my server that worldmail was
installed on crashes, the data was still there just not accessible until I
reinstalled NT.  The problem I ran across is that I had to reinstall
worldmail to register the dll's and it trashed the mailboxes of my users,
thank god not the email messages in the directories.  I had to re add all my
users in the manager, which I thought was not good.  I figured out that
adding a new mailbox and deleting the .dat file in the mailbox directory for
the user usually set things right.  What I would like to do is put the
configuration file onto a backup, does anyone have an idea of where or what
the file is called?  Eventually I will need to move it to another server and
would not like to start over.

TIA

What we do is run this 6-line batch file on a regular basis (I have removed
certain information for security reasons).  It exports the current
configuration to a folder that is in the tape backup path (we back up the
messages).  Popping open the explorer at the end allows you to rename the
file with, for example, 03-02 in the name, so that you have a set of
versions you can roll back to, should that be necessary.

   @echo off
   rem Backup WorldMail settings... 11/17/00
   C:\progra~1\worldm~1\smtp\nibl -e -r <password> -f d:\<path to
folder>\wmconfig.txt
   echo Please rename the file to include today's date...
   pause
   c:\winnt\explorer.exe d:\<path to folder>

It might be difficult to actually back up "live" configuration databases,
since they are "open" all the time.  Also, the output of this file
supposedly can be used to rebuild WorldMail with a simple import command
(using the nibl utility).  If you find a better way, please share.

I currently only have one domain hosted by my mailserver.  Is it possible to
create "alias" domains?

Currently, the domain, domain1.com is active.

If you send email to user at domain1 dot com, 'user' get's email.

What if I want user to also get email for user at domain2 dot com and
user at domain3 dot com?

Is this a "custom" domain?  How do I need to set it up?

I have done it before, myself.  You create a secondary domain.  But you only
add aliases to the domain.  However, if you are disabling relaying, then the
aliases should be inputed as distribution groups with the true destination
email address as the only member.  Otherwise it won't go through.

Not true. We currently run three secondary domains of aliases to our primary
domain mailboxes.
Make sure you allow relaying from at least your own machine and you
WON'T need
distribution groups for internal aliases. The alias works for both POP and
SMTP. Unfortunately, you cannot "alias" an entire domain. That would be a
gateway, and Worldmail doesn't do gateways.

I suppose what you meant to say is "Not entirely true".  If in fact you are
using aliases for internal users, then using a regular alias will work.  If
you're using it for external users, such as traveling salesman, or
offsite/home offices, then you will have to use a Distribution group instead
of an alias, unless you add their IP addresses to Worldmail permitting them
to relay through it.  However, most traveling salelmen and home offices
don't have static IP's, making this impossible.

The domain name itself won't be an alias, but would have to be registered in
the DNS servers you are using if you expect to send email to users or
aliases within that domain.

I think you also have to set a default domain somewhere in the mgmt console.  As
I remember, only the primary domain can have POP accounts.  The other domain(s)
only have aliases to the real POP account in the primary.  I may be wrong but I
think WM can't tell for sure what domain a client is checking mail for without
setting a default.  I never tried an IMAP account.

Not really.  There is an advantage to setting a default, in that the default
domain you can login with your username only, but for any other domain your
login name would be your email address in the domain you are attaching
too...  Of course, that's if you have regular accounts in the other domains.
With aliases, you're still logging into your regular account in the domain
you are actually using.

Hello all,

A few months ago, I took over the administration of a WorldMail 2.0 server.
Up until today I've been connecting to the Management Center on the local
machine using the stored password. Thinking I knew the password, I unchecked
hte "Use Stored Password" box. As it turns out, I don't know the read/write
password.

I do have a read password, I can run nibl program to get diagnostic
information, but unfortunately, that doesn't give the management password.

Any have any ideas how to reset the management password?

Password Recovery in Worldmail 2.0


From the desktop select start then run and type in cmd and press enter

Once at a command prompt navigate to the Worldmail directory. This is
located by default in \Program Files\Worldmail

From the Worldmail directory, navigate to the SMTP directory

Subject: Lost management password


Hello all,

A few months ago, I took over the administration of a WorldMail 2.0 server.
Up until today I've been connecting to the Management Center on the local
machine using the stored password. Thinking I knew the password, I unchecked
hte "Use Stored Password" box. As it turns out, I don't know the read/write
password.

I do have a read password, I can run nibl program to get diagnostic
information, but unfortunately, that doesn't give the management password.

Any have any ideas how to reset the management password?

Rich,

Thanks for the quick answer! And I guess I should have done my homework
before asking the list. (Once I saw the document number in your post I did a
search on Eurdora's site, and found the same thing immediately).

Password Recovery in Worldmail 2.0


From the desktop select start then run and type in cmd and press enter

Once at a command prompt navigate to the Worldmail directory. This is
located by default in \Program Files\Worldmail

From the Worldmail directory, navigate to the SMTP directory

In the SMTP directory, run the following applications exactly as they appear

Reinstall the program again. Keep all the user's folder... after
installation copy the folders back to the
program.

This should work. But make sure you know the settings and configurations.

Subject: Alias and Relay question
Date: Fri, 9 Mar 2001 10:06:19 -0800

I'm going to enable some relay restrictions on our server, but I just read a
support article on Eudora's site that says:

"If you enable security settings for WorldMail, that will effectively
disable any aliases that you have set up."

So, if I'm wrapping my head around this correctly, does that mean the alias
that sends all my mail from "chris@altuscorp.com" to "kris@altuscorp dot com"
will stop working?

http://www.eudora.com/techsupport/kb/1891hq.html

One other quick question:

If I set 171.70.19.21/255.255.0.0 as allowed to use my SMTP server, does
that mean all IPs in the 171.70.x.x range can use the server?

I enabled mail relay security and my aliases for local users still seem to
be working OK.
I wonder what specific situation the support topic is referring to?

I believe that your interpretation of the subnet address masking is correct.
Also, I found out that once you allow an address range Worldmail ignores any
request to deny a specific address in that same range.

Terry

No, this would basically block everyone from using your server. If you want
to allow 171.70.x.x range to use the server, then you need to set
171.70.0.0/255.255.0.0 in the settings.

You can remove the messages from the directory on the server, just make sure

I guess that the user is running POP3 [since with IMAP4 he could work in a
different way] then you can:
a) backup users mailbox directory
b) delete the unwanted messages
c) delete mailbox.dat
Mail server will rebuild mailbox.dat on next login to the mailbox.

[If IMAP4 then don't do this because of sub-folder info that is held in
mailbox.dat]

Alternative - let user connect via IMAP4 and he can manage the account
himself without having to download the messages at all.

Subject: SMTPD Memory Leak Information

I'm running Worldmail V2.0 with 750 users on a dual processor 233Mhz 
system running NT4 with SP3 with 256MB RAM.


I just had the well known SMTP memory leak occur and was able to 
collect some more information on the problem.

Using Worldmail Management Center, I was able to open Current 
connections/Servers and found that there was a large attachment 
(180MB) coming in from a mail client (Eudora). Using the IP address 
displayed as the source, I contacted the owner and had him stop his 
outgoing mail. Immediately, the SMTPD process dropped from over 100MB 
back to around 3MB. I then had him delete it from his OUT box so it 
wouldn't try to send it again and cause the same problem. The resend 
is apparently why we've seen the problem reappear even after a reboot 
when memory has gotten so tight that NT won't run.

After this I noticed another inbound of a large attachment from 
another user that came in and got resent out ok. It was about 230MB 
and through out the transaction, SMTPD would grow to up to 40MB, then 
drop back to 3MB.  This occurred several times during the 
transaction.  So, the attachment size wasn't the problem.

I then had the person that sent the original problem causing 
attachment again and finally had to have him abort it when SMTPD got 
to about  75MB. SMTPD continually grew during this transaction 
without ever doing a reset. I had him check his attachment encoding 
setting in Eudora and it was set to MIME, which is what we use.

I still don't know what the real problem with his particular 
attachment is, but at least I now know that the SMTPD memory leak 
seems to be caused by certain large attachments.

Do any of you have any more information on this problem.

You should configure a max message size enforcement in your server so that
the server will not accept messages over a certain size (e.g. 5MB). What you
described is not really a memory leak since memory leak indicates that the
server allocated memory and never released it once the processing was done,
but in your case the server promptly returned all the allocated memory once
the processing was done. The server does keep the message in memory while
it's receiving the data, so it is normal behavior to see the memory usage of
the server to go high, but then once those messages are delivered to their
respective recipients, the memory size should decrease right away.

Thanks all. Gotten some good tips from the list.
Just got through replacing all aliases with distribution lists - tedious task. I was getting spam relaying and allowing IPs is not a viable option. 
I know I'm not I alone in wishing Qualcomm would get their act together and get some filters (incoming & outgoing) etc. on an update, or alone in assuming it won't happen anytime soon if at all.

Hello All,

I have a problem that has happened here twice in the last year. We run 
Worldmail on an NT Server, twice in the last year it has Blue Screened. 
What happens when it comes back up that all is well except for a couple 
of the IMAP users no longer have their messages. The server itself still 
shows all messages in the user folder on the mail server but the 
messages can no longer be retrieved. It appears as if it has lost the 
link to the old messages on the server, all new messages work fine. I 
don't know if this was because these particular users were actively 
using their mail at the time of the crash or what? but this the second 
time this has happened. Has anyone else ran across this problem? If so 
is there a fix?

Thanks for any help,
Kurt Mackesty

You can try stopping the WorldMail services, then renaming the 
affected files from ".msg" to ".new", then starting the services 
again.  That may cause the messages to be added back into the index 
file.

Subject: Can't Receive Email.

Hi all.

I'm new to Worldmail2, and I'm having a tough time
resolving this issue.

Here's my situation:

My Worldmail2 Server runs on Windows 2000 SERVER, and 
sits on a private LAN.

The Lan is connected to the INTERNET through a DSL
Router.

The router does NAT (network address translation)
between the private IP's on the LAN, and the
statically assigned PUBLIC IP's.

I can SEND and RECEIVE email on the LAN. and I can
SEND EMAIL to the INTERNET at large, from the LAN.

BUT, email from the internet, INBOUND to my LAN gets
BOUNCED BACK. And, it returns the Public IP address
that is mapped to the email server.

So...I'm trying to narrow this down. I suspect that it
may be a problem with NAT on the router? 

Has anyone ever had trouble like this before?



Thanks for your help.

Carl Giorlando

PS
As an aside, getting Worldmail2 up and running was
frustrating. You can imagine how surprised I was to
find that I had to hack the registry to get it to work
at all under Windows2000! None of this was mentioned
in the documentation or help files. That cost my a
couple of very frustrating days, beating up my DNS
server, looking for the flaw.

Hello Carl,
The first thing to discover is how far the inbound SMTP requests are
getting - i.e. is it even reaching the W2K machine that is running
WorldMail.

This is pretty easy to tell from either the WorldMail SMTP logs or even more
info from the supplied ISOTRACE.EXE program. [just run it and enable tracing
on SMTP - then make a connection from one of your internal machines and see
what happens then try from somewhere on the other side of the DSL link.

Re Win2K and registry - the problem is that the documentation was written
before Windows2000 was released [yes WorldMail2 is old].
Microsoft changed the way that the DNS configuration was held - so WorldMail
couldn't find it any more.

Subject: Multiple Email Servers
Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2001 08:01:30 -0500

I have to integrate 2 email servers, one of them being an Exchange server,
and one being Worldmail.

I want to make my worldmail server appear to the outside world to be the
same as the Exchange server.

Exchange hosts "domain1.com", and I host "domain2.com" on Worldmail.

I want to make the world see me as user at domain1 dot com, and domain1.com will
maintain the MX record for the domain.

They are going to enter aliases at domain1.com for all my users at
domain2.com.  I am going to have my users change their email addresses to
user at domain1 dot com.

Is this the best way to handle it?  Does anyone else have any more
suggestions?

First, thanks to all for your help. So far, I can
still send email with Worldmail, but can't receive a
thing.

Does anyone know how to use the Protocol Trace
Utility?

I can not find any directions or help anywhere!
Nothing seems functional. For example,under the ACTION
menu, the 2 choices START TRANSPORT PROTOCOL and STOP
TRANSPORT PROTOCOL are both GREYED out and
unavailable. Anyone else have this?

Also, on the TEST menu, there are 4 START test
options. When i select ANY of them, i can NOT enter
any data. For example, the Start Transport Receive
test has a Drop Down box to select Called Transport
Prototcol. It is empty and i can NOt enter anything
into it.

Does anyone else have these problems?
Is there any place i can get some directions on how to
use the Protocol Trace Utility?

I have checked my router and all the ports seem open.


Finally, one last strange thing. When I go to the
command line and type nibl -e and enter my password, i
get Abnormal Program Termination. i'm sure i'm usiing
the right password. I just don't get it.

Any help would be appreciated. 

What sort of support is available from EUdora? Any

The trace utility works fine on my Win2000(Workstation) + Worldmail
installation.

Same here. I notice that "Trace/Transport Drivers" and "Configure" are 
also
grayed out. My guess is that the Worldmail developers left themselves 
room to
plug brand-new drivers in on the fly for development; but you and I don't
have any of those.

>Is there any place i can get some directions on how to

I start it running, and without touching any of the settings in any way 
it
starts showing me a trace of all the SMTP and POP requests going by. And
that's usually all I need.

It's been about a year now since the last time I got nibl to work. My 
copy
has massive problems with the passwords. I've followed all the advice 
here on
that subject, to no avail. Oh well. Quite inconvenient, not having it.

The ISOTRACE utility is general purpose and it is able to trace the ISOCOR
(hence ISOTRACE) transport stacks.  Those transport stacks cover the lower
OSI models [used in the old ISOCOR X.400 and X.500 products] ... which are
not used on SMTP/POP3/IMAP4.  Since those lower layer transport stacks are
not installed ... those options are greyed out.
So - don't worry.
You just need to find the trace item for SMTP and put it into Verbose mode.
[this then sets a flag in the registry ... and if you quit ISOTRACE with
that flag still set the next time you come in you will not have to re-enable
trace]

I don't think that you really have to worry too much about ISOCOR messages.
They aren't really problems, but rather, warnings.  At least the way that I
understand them.  I've setup a few Worldmail Servers, and they all have
these messages from time to time, but everything works fine.  I've got so
many other things to handle, so I've never really pursued them any
further....

Well, I just went to Eudora Worldmail support and found this, confirming
what I said:

Might be better to see if we can resolve the specific issue ... just in
case.

Can you say what is in the event log - and run ISOTRACE/trace SMTP/IMS then
restart the services and try to get the event log item recreated while
ISOTRACE is logging (you can set it to log to file at same time as screen).

Subject: Worldmail List Robot Date Problem

Hi,

I have created a mailing list with a Worldmail Listserve robot.  The
list seems to work fine.  Once people have subscribed, sending a message
to the list gets it to everyone.

My problem is with the robot itself. When you send a message containing
commands to 
the robot, it processes the message and sends back a reply saying it
succeeded or failed or whatever. 

Unfortunately all the return messages from the robot come back with an
invalid date format that makes my mail client think the mail came from
the far past.  It gets sorted  waaaaaay down to the bottom of my inbox.

Here is an actual date line from the header of a message sent by the
robot.  Has anyone else seen this and is there a patch to fix it.?

        Date: Mon, 30 Apr 101 16:55:05 Eastern Daylight Time
                          ^^^

This has happened in multiple attempts. From multiple computers. With
multiple mail clients (Eudora, Netscape Messenger...).  We have verified
that the clock and calendar on the Mail Server computer are set
correctly.   

This looks Y2kish....HELP!

Thanks,
