rcpthosts only shows 3 items, one of which is localhost, domain belonging to
box, and a virtual domain.
The relaymailfrom shows addresses from our box since we have many folks to
access their mail from offsite.
The reason it uses the smtp-backdoor is because of the Vexira antivirus.
Would it cause any interference with that?
I was considering patching with the tarpit.patch file from
http://www.palomine.net/qmail/tarpit.html
Is this a bad idea? Do you use this? If so, how did you install it?
We use webmin also, and I noticed when I tried to set a password for a mail
account, it generated the following error:
Your system has MD5 passwords enabled, but neither the perl MD5 or Digest::MD5
module is not installed. site:www.webmin.com
Could this misconfigured script be allowing access from the outside?
Thanks for the help. -Mark
