[root@rk install]# ./qmr_install_linux-s1.script


Output like below.

Done!

And set up the supervise script directories...

Setting conf-split and conf-spawn

All steps completed!

[root@rk qmail-1.03]# make man && make setup check


[root@rk qmail-1.03]# hostname
rk

[root@rk qmail-1.03]# ./config-fast rk
Your fully qualified host name is rk.
Putting rk into control/me...
Putting rk into control/defaultdomain...
Putting rk into control/plusdomain...
Putting rk into control/locals...
Putting rk into control/rcpthosts...
Now qmail will refuse to accept SMTP messages except to rk.
Make sure to change rcpthosts if you add hosts to locals or virtualdomains!


[root@rk qmail-1.03]# make cert

openssl req -new -x509 -nodes \
    -out /var/qmail/control/servercert.pem -days 366 \
    -keyout /var/qmail/control/servercert.pem

chmod 640 /var/qmail/control/servercert.pem
chown qmaild.qmail /var/qmail/control/servercert.pem
ln -s /var/qmail/control/servercert.pem /var/qmail/control/clientcert.pem


Now Set the correct ownership for Cert.

[root@rk qmail-1.03]# chown -R vpopmail:qmail /var/qmail/control/clientcert.pem /var/qmail/control/servercert.pem


Now Build UCSPI-TCP

[root@rk ucspi-tcp-0.88]# pwd

[root@rk download]# wget http://www.balabit.com/downloads/files/syslog-ng/open-source-edition/3.3.8/source/eventlog_0.2.12.tar.gz

[root@rk syslog-ng-3.3.8]#wget http://www.balabit.com/downloads/files/syslog-ng/open-source-edition/3.3.8/source/syslog-ng_3.3.8.tar.gz


Event log must install before syslog-ng setup.

[root@rk tmp]# tar -xvzf eventlog_0.2.12.tar.gz

[root@rk eventlog-0.2.12]# ./configure

[root@rk eventlog-0.2.12]# make

[root@rk eventlog-0.2.12]# make install

After installation you can find info under following dir.

[root@rk pkgconfig]# pwd
/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig
[root@indfumarket pkgconfig]# cat eventlog.pc
prefix=/usr/local
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib
includedir=${prefix}/include/eventlog

Name: eventlog
Description: General system logging format library
Version: 0.2.12
Cflags: -I${includedir}
Libs: -L${libdir} -levtlog


IMP
Now export the path & configure Syslog-ng Otherwise it will through following error.


configure: error: Package requirements (eventlog >= 0.2.12) were not met:
No package 'eventlog' found
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables EVTLOG_CFLAGS
and EVTLOG_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

Solution:-
[root@rk syslog-ng-3.3.8]# export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig


Now Time to run syslog-ng Setup

After extract & change dir, run configure

[root@rk syslog-ng-3.3.8]# ./configure

[root@rk syslog-ng-3.3.8]# make

[root@rk syslog-ng-3.3.8]# make install

Managing Mailboxes with cyradm

In three Steps you can create/delete mail with cyradm.

Login on IMAP server, in my example it running on local system

1) [root@imap01 tmp]# cyradm -user raman localhost
Password:

 lm : listmailbox : Lists the names of all mailboxes that match a given pattern.

No mail apper.

2) Now time to create new mailbox e.g abc

hit this command

localhost> cm user.abc

cm : createmailbox : Creates a new top-level mailbox.

Now run lm command to to list.

localhost> lm
user.abc (\HasNoChildren)

or lm user.abc

3) Time to delete mail box.

localhost> dm user.abc
deletemailbox: Permission denied


dm : deletemailbox : Deletes a mailbox and all mailboxes below it in its hierarchy
 
Reason :- Admin does not have this permission by default. to fix this give the admin user 'create' permissions on the mailbox.

Now run like this.

localhost> sam user.abc raman c
localhost> dm user.abc
localhost> lm


Done.

P.S :- Keep it Simple.
