Hi Jerry,

I’m using mailquotacheck to set quota for each user. You might want to check it http://www.pgregg.com/projects/qmail/mailquotacheck/

Thanks for the patches. I’m having difficulties integrating patches that comes from different authors. I want to know if you have patch for SPF? I tried to install some patch from different author but it has FAILED error and I don’t know how to debug it. When I used your patch, everything went perfect so I ‘m hoping you could provide or add a patch for enabling spf.

Thanks,

Nelson

Great instructions. I’ve setup numerous qmail server with this. Now for the question, is there a way to set a quota for each user or domain?

Thank you.

That article no longer exists.
It has been replaced by: http://atmail.com/kb/?p=270

Just in case it disappears again, here it is:
———————-
Description: The standard Courier-IMAP 3.0.8 distribution will not build on stock Fedora/Redhat systems. Compilation fails while building the authlib library, usually with an error message like:

In file included from authstaticlistsearch.c:9:
/usr/include/stdio.h:385: error: syntax error before ‘&&’ token

A review of the stdio.h file shows that no ‘&&’ symbols appears on or near line 385.

Solution: The courier-imap/authlib directory contains a file named ‘debug.h’ to support the debugging of authentication attempts against the Courier IMAP server. This file contains a C preprocessor macro named ‘dprintf’ that conflicts with the ‘dprintf’ function defined in glibc’s ‘stdio.h’. This conflict isn’t a problem so long as ‘#include ‘ appears before ‘#include “debug.h”‘ in the authlib source files. Unfortunately, this is not the case for files ‘authstaticlistsearch.c’, ‘authmoduser3.c’, ‘mod.h’, ‘authtest.c’, ‘debug.c’, and ‘authdaemon.c’.

To fix this problem, open these files in a text editor and move the ‘#include “debug.h”‘ line so that it is the last include directive. Make sure that you do not paste it into a ‘#if … #endif’ block. Once you have made these changes, the build process should succeed.
