Re: [CentOS] web based mail packages for CentOS

Ed,

I saw no activity though the sac queue (I kept refreshing) but no luck. I had created 2 users in SAC to hopefully catch all of the mail that I was no longer recieving while I was trying to get the kerberos going... I believe what could have been the cause is: 1 the post I read on setting this up wasn't correct or some part of the process was not the same 2) I configured scalix to authenticate against the kerberos. So when I tried to logon I kept getting rejected as password or userid not found 3) not understanding what I am getting -> do I have to create an account and 'tie' it to the kerberos?

The sendmail was rejecting to my userid even though the user existed on both the sac and AD, which supports my idea that it's not 'authenticating' with the AD server...

As I mentioned sendmail isn't my favorite but I did run for some time before moving to postfix. From what I've read scalix takes care of this. Are there any post install scalix scripts that I have to run?

I see that there is a component called Scalix ForestPrep. Is this included in the open source distro? I would prefer this if possible. A single sign on is ok if that's all I can get but having true integration with the directory server would be preferable as I would like to have a single entry for ease of admin.

James,

When you say mail is not coming in do you mean that scalix is not accepting mail for your users? Did you provision your users in the Scalix SAC? What sort of error message is Scalix giving you when it rejects email?
Also, sendmail is most likely not the issue as sendmail is only used to process outbound mail. Scalix has its own smtpd that handles processing inbound mail and relaying. Let me know if I can help.

Easy for you to say! I was up late last night trying to figure out why no mail was coming in? I think it has to do with the kerberos integration with AD (which is what provides the single sign on).

I followed the directions and even saw users but for the life of me I could not logon to webmail?

Using the sxadmin I noticed that no mail was active at all in the queue? Do you have any idea to what could be the cause?

All of the mail coming in was being flat out rejected. Was there some additional steps that had to be done on 'sendmail' I had not configured the sendmail.mc which I would have typically done to get a mail server running with sendmail.

I hate sendmail (though I have a big hefty sendmail book) and moved to postfix for the ease of admin...

Perhaps I do not understand what is going on with the imap service and mta. I noticed that there is a modififed sendmail.cf that contains information of scalix. This makes me think that scalix 'should' (key
word) be setting up what it needs to. By default sendmail will only accept mail from localhost. Does scalix take care of this or is it one more thing that I have to do? The docs and knowledge base do not really talk about it, which makes me believe that this thing should be working out of the box.

I would like to give another shot (this time try it without the AD
intergration) to see how it works.

Thanks,

James

Was it easy to install? I currently have postfix and cyrus-imapd running but could make changes.
Extremely easy if you have the right RPM andright OS, just RH [CentOS] or SUSE. Disable your existing postfix..., they provide everything.

I just changed from a linux Samba DC to an Active Directory one to change things up a bit. Does this Zimbra integrate with AD (or vice-a-versa)?
No experience, my customers do not have ADs, but Zimbra claims easy integration. Take a look @
