Installation and Upgrades / Repository Questions

« on: September 02, 2008, 10:48:13 pm »

The installation page refers to this one as the stable (one I'm using):
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/juruen/ubuntu hardy main

This one as the unstable/testing:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ebox-unstable/ubuntu hardy main

But I've also noted the existence of this repo:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ebox/ubuntu hardy main
Anyone now what this one is used for? Looks to be like the new stable repo with 0.12?

Installation and Upgrades / Quota/Mail Questions

« on: August 16, 2008, 05:33:34 am »

For some reason this is not clear to me. I see several quota options.

1) eBox/Mail/VDomains
"Default Maildir Size (MB)"  (Is this for the vdomain's TOTAL; all users total files?)
Also If you click a virtual domain the tabs appear to be reversed here.
But if I click "Mail filter settings" (should be "Size quota" I'm sure) you get:
"Maildir size for example.com virtual domain"
If it's a TOTAL quota for the vdomain. What does "Force the change to the existing accounts" do?

2)eBox/Mail/Index?menu=settings
"Default maximum mail account size"
This looks like the setting per user?
BUT, create a new user and "unlimited size" is checked, the default does appear to be effective?

It seems quotas are not set using maildirmake -q? So, in the current setup is a mail reader, such as Thunderbird, able to give quota feedback to the user? I'm guessing I can just do "maildirmake -q" myself to help with the user feedback issues if needed. Any potential issues with that?

I've used Cyrus for IMAP with system users and currently testing Ebox. I'm not wedded to Cyrus but wouldn't mind Sieve or some sort of filtering with eBox setups. Autoreply is also good though annoying  .

I would also like to be able to modify the postfix config, but would like eBox to still work. I'm assuming I can do this by modifying a template of some sort?

Thanks in advance. So far this appears to be a very nice frontend.

Installation and Upgrades / Small Add-On

I suggest adding the option to enable an RBL service such as:

NOTE: This is from my non-ebox server (just an example).
smtpd_recipient_restrictions =
        permit_mynetworks,
        reject_unauth_destination,
        reject_unknown_recipient_domain,
        reject_unauth_destination,
        check_sender_access hash:/etc/postfix/access,
        check_helo_access hash:/etc/postfix/helo_checks,
        reject_rbl_client zen.spamhaus.org,
        permit

Not everyone will want to enable this, but the option would be nice.
