Smtp Auth

[Gimpy00Wang]

Here's the pop3.sh:

#!/bin/sh
# This starts qmail-pop3d using tcpserver

env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:/usr/local/bin" \
tcpserver -H -R 0 pop3 \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup _SHOST_.domain.com \
/var/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir &

smtp.sh:

#!/bin/sh

echo Starting qmail-smtpd...
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -x /var/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -u 82 -g 81 0 \
smtp /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd \
2>&1 | /var/qmail/bin/splogger smtpd &

...and my rc...

#!/bin/sh

# Using splogger to send the log through syslog.
# Using qmail-local to deliver messages to Maildir format by default

case "$1" in
start)
        exec env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:$PATH" \
                qmail-start ./Maildir/ splogger qmail&
                /var/qmail/bin/pop3.sh
                /var/qmail/bin/smtp.sh
        exit 0
        ;;
stop)
        exec killall qmail-send
        ;;
*)
        echo "Usage: `basename $0` {start|stop}" >&2
        exit 64
        ;;
