your friends don't get emails from facebook unless you explicity type in their address and/or upload your address book for facebook to invite them. i've not done either of these things so facebook hasn't "spammed" my friends - surely it's not spamming them if you entered the addresses to invite them...

really, i got the impression that the usermap was an optional thing. wouldn't be an issue for me though luckily.

thanks for the feedback

do you have their anti-spam features turned on?

I stumbled across http://rollernet.us/ as a free secondary mx service today.

Just wondering if anyone's using / used it and if so, is it reliable?

martin, which rss hack did you use for this?

I would suggest including this for stand alone mysql servers too. I've had a couple of corrupted tables over the time i've used hMailServer - always after a crash or unexpected restart (not hMails fault at all)

However a lot of web sites with forms that you fill in and then click a button to e-mail only run a dumb script and do not retry so the e-mail is lost. How much of an issue has this been? Presumably you can get round this problem by clicking the button on the website again? (obviously undesirable t...

From what i have read, SP2 just added to the limits by limiting outbound as well as inbound: "Similar to the inbound connection limit Microsoft imposed on Windows 2000 Professional and Windows XP (where these platforms are limited to 10 simultaneous inbound connections), Windows XP SP2 now limits ou...

I'm using apache and have noticed the constraint in my application log (i'm using xp pro). From my understanding, it's the number of tcp/ip connections regardless of what port they come in on? A consideration for business users: I *think* that the patches available to get round this limit break the ...

isn't a reason to use 2k3 over xp the fact that XP Pro SP2 now limits inbound and outbound connection attempts to no more than 10 at one time (and XP Home limits to 5) ?

the above is from memory so forgive me if i've got it wrong!

pretty sure all those options are in 1.1.1

there is no "cleanup" option. you need to set the following: uncheck "use subject as filename" set the max files option (which you've already done) remove the 85000 you've already got (however, i'd be slightly cautious with this as my ASSP recently seem to forget all the spam training it'd had.. and...

you need to set the "External OK mail" folder in ASSP. i had it set as c:\assp\other during testing. ASSP will put the 5% that you have to dig up in this folder...

I think that rather than spending time on developing a new webmail client, it would make more sense to compile a very detailed (but idiot proof) step-by-step guide to setting up Squirrelmail (and php?) on Apache or IIS. I've personally set up hMailServer with Squirrelmail on Apache on two separate s...

this might be of use:

i haven't got round to trying it out yet, so let me know if you get it working!

thanks for that matty.. may be the answer i was looking for... please can someone confirm that this will work: for mydomain.com, add a route with my ISPs SMTP server specified, add distributionlistname@mydomain.com in the addresses tab. What I expect that to do is send mail to everyone on the distri...

For a certain account, I want to send all mail via my ISP's server. It'd be like setting up a route for a user rather than a domain.

Thanks for the link. Unfortunately they're far more expensive than what we currently use (£75/year). Ideally I want to move the list to my own server though as free = better

Is it possible through scripting to send all mail from a particular user through the SMTP relay? The reason I want to do this is: So far I have discovered two domains that reject mail from my server (not sure why - they don't give me detailed info, just that it was rejected. I assume this is due to ...

i'm pretty sure this isn't possible - i looked in to it in the past and couldn't find any info other than other people failing to make it work.

so you can set the number of concurrent smtp connections + the delay in seconds between the current set of connections closing and the next set opening?

I've had a look for some info regarding tarpitting in hMailServer but haven't been able to find much. [using 3.4.1 b86] I think I understand what it is for / how to use it, but would like clarification. My understanding is that tarpitting causes a small delay inbetween messages when sending a large ...

Are you using Apache or IIS as your webserver?

had both those settings set correctly. narrowed it down to paths as i got a js error on the composition page saying something along the lines of file not found. sorry, i'm not being very useful... i did this a while ago and can't really remember. i decided in the end that I don't really want to be w...

i've also not been able to get this to work...

with the latest version, trying to use FCKEditor I narrowed it down to being a problem with paths.

this is a wild guess but it may not work properly on Windows..

every post about it on the SM forum suggests that it "just works".. a bit odd...

Sounds like you unticked "Allow empty sender address" on the SMTP security tab, and that the remote server "verifies" that you're not a spammer by trying to send a mail to your server without specifying a sender address

any news on how close 3.4.1 is to being released as stable?

i'm not sure that this will be of use, but http://www.jmu.edu/computing/ittraining ... upxp.shtml has a section on subscribing to IMAP folders about 3/4 down the page (after step 17)

maybe you need to tell Outlook to subscribe to Inbox.Sent ?

i also agree on "split log after size = x"

i've had this problem too and the error in the logfile is (from memory) "could not connect to mysql db" - it only happens occasionally so is probably a case of the mail service trying to start before the db service.. so what martin said about the hMailServer service being dependent on the DB service...

i've put it up here....
