Netscape Messaging Server 4.15 patch 6

This is probably not the right newsgroup for this, but I can't find any for
this product.
Anyway, we experience that our smtpd daemon uses approx. 100% of the CPU and
after a while (some hours) it stops handling anymore smtp requests. The
only solution is to restart the service and it will work for yet some more
hours.
Anyone have an idea on what this problem might be, or a more suitable
newsgroup to post it on?

Morten,
I am facing the same problem with 4.15 Patch4.Any solution you got for the same?Would very much appreciate if you got the solution.

Netscape Messaging Server & iPlanet Web Server question

The netscape messaging server (v 4.1) is receiving emails which are html-only formatted. Through webmail, the body appears to be empty. When checking the message store, the message is not empty. When accessing through webmail, we are able to view the emails that arrive in the html and plain text formats (both together) or plain text, but not those that arrive html-only. The webserver is iPlanet Web Server, Enterprise Edition.
Is there any workaround for that, or is it a limitation of the web server?

WEll, um,
1. Netscape Messaging Server 4.xx, all versions have been End Of Support life for over 2 years.
2. There is no web server involved, here. Messaging itself serves the http interface.
3. Yes, there is a workaround. Upgrade. You're using very old bits, and the only real answer is for you to use a current product, if you need current features.
Messaging Server 5.2p2 is considered "mature", though still under support. No new features are getting added.
Messaging Server 6.2 is the current product. It's part of the Sun Java Enterprise System, and may be downloaded.

Is there a possibility by which i can configure Netscape Messaging server as a POP server.

I'm running Netscape Messaging server on Solaris 8 is there a provision to configure the NMS as a POP server.SO user's could download the mail through mail clients like Outlook express.

Which version is it? Netscape 4.x or Iplanet 5.x? In both cases the information to configure your mailrelay server as a pop3-server is contained in the administration guide. There you can find everything there is to know about pop3. And it is a lot...
The manuals can be found on the internet: www.iplanet.com.
Good luck.

Netscape Messaging Server 4.1 timeouts in WebMail at LOGIN

Netscape Messaging Server 4.1 times out users in WebMail at LOGIN, but from
seemingly random sites.

Use configutil, found in the <server-root>/msg-<identifier>/ directory as follows:

./configutil -o service.http.ipsecurity -v no

My SMTP log is already in debug mode, yet it doesn�t show any information from the filter. The only area where I was able to find any reference to the UBE filters was in the log that I posted in my original post.
I've tried changing the COPY commands to DROP, yet it stll doesn't work.
I even tried:
$ALL DROP deadmail
and
$ALL DROP [email protected]
I'm starting to think that the UBE filters for 4.15 just don't work as the above should have worked fine.
Unfortunately, upgrading isn't an option right now, so I'm stuck with what I have.... So, any help would be great.
Thanks,

Migrating from Netscape Messaging Server 4.15 Plug-in to iPlanet Messaging Server 5.1 Channel

Hi, there.
I wrote a custom plug-in for Netscape Messaging Server 4.15. The client for
whom I did this is now upgrading to iPlanet Messaging Server 5.1 and has
requested that I update the custom plug-in accordingly. Unfortunately, as
specified in the iPlanet migration documents, you have to re-code the
plug-in as a channel to get it to work under iPlanet Messaging Server...
I've scoured the documentation about how to go about doing this, but I don't
know how to get started as I don't know anything about writing a channel.
The plug-in processes incoming messages to see if they were sent from a
specific domain. It then adds an arbitrary signature to each appropriate
MIME part in the message before letting the messaging server relay it.
1. Can anyone direct me to some explicit directions about how to write a
channel for iPlanet Messaging Server? The documentation for Netscape
Messaging Server was extremely helpful; I haven't found anything equivalent
for iPlanet channels.
2. Channels run as daemons? Do you have to start them when the machine
boots, or are they started for you by the MTA as a result of the channel
configuration file?
3. Do channels listen with sockets on a particular port for communication?
Do I have to parse incoming data and encode outgoing data as if it was an
SMTP communication?
4. Can an SMTP channel co-exist with other SMTP channels on the same
machine? Do the channels have to listen on unique ports? (Sorry, my socket
programming is a little rusty.)
Anxiously awaiting your reply...

What is the expected result of the plug-in?
Also, if you set the smtp log level to debug do you see it initializing the plugin at startup time and also entering the plugin during the smtp-accepts?

Problem in installing Netscape Messaging Server in Windows2000 Professional

I have installed NMS 4.15 on Win 2K Professional.Setup completed successfully.When I logged in Console I can able to see only Administration server and Directory Server,but Messaging Server is not listed. When I tried to uninstall,it shows the Messaging Suite also in the Uninstall list. I can't access NMS thru browser also.
Anybody's help would be appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.

NMS 4.15 is not supported on Windows 2000 prof edition. later i got the solution from NMS release notes.

Mail.app and Netscape Messaging Server v3.6

We are trying to track down performance issues with Mail.app in both Tiger and Panther. Issues include how long it takes to download large attachments (PDFs upwards of 10MB), how long it takes to synchronize and cache, and other things that appear in Mail's activity window and never go away. Downloading large attachments puts a large CPU load on our mail server. We are looking at all variables -- switches, network configs, local client settings, etc. We are on a switched network with a mix of Gig and 100BT to the desktops. But my question here is: What might be the advantage of upgrading to a newer mail server? Our Netscape 3.6 software is very old, but the Sun hardware it lives on had a CPU upgrade last year. Even though the IMAP protocol itself has been pretty stable for years, would we find newer platforms more efficient with modern needs such as large attachments and inboxes that receive dozens of messages a day?

Wow, this is dusting off the cobwebs. NS 3.X has a different format for mail message, the IMAP data is contained in the first 400 bytes (or so) of the message file. So sending them through the deliver program is not an option, unless you strip the bytes off.
When you ran upgrade on an individual user, did you first remove the 4.15 mailbox with mboxutil -d?

Hi,
I added a new net/range to our UBEfilter.cfg and to antirelay.config to allow to use our mailserver.
With all other hosts/nets set in these files everything works well, but with this new net, messages which are not destinate to our domaine are rejected caused by UBEfilter.
Can anybody help?

Question about active queue and related msg of Nets.Messaging server 4.15

I have Netscape Messaging Server 4.15 Patch 7 (buil
t Sep 11 2001). I see that the number of messages in active queue viewed as number of file (ls -l queue/messages | wc -l) doesn't matches with the number of messages that I see in Mailbox-deliver as showed by sendmail -bp command.
Why?
Very often number of file are few hundred, when the emulator of sendmail shows only twenty-thirty messages.
And I see that the messages in active queue (if I open them with commands like more, view...) are all for local domains on server, so mailbox-deliver.
There are sometimes a lot of messages of months ago...
Thank you very much
Best Regards
Marco

IPlanet Messaging Server 5.2 (for Solaris 8 and 9) with patch 5.2hf2.13

Hi..
iPlanet Messaging Server 5.2 Patch 2 (built Jul 14 2004)
libimta.so 5.2 Patch 2 (built 19:30:12, Jul 14 2004)
I heard that SUN have released security vulnerability in Sun Java System or iPlanet Messaging Servers that may allow remote unprivileged users to craft specific messages which contain Javascript to be executed in the end user's browser.
The problem can be solved by using iPlanet Messaging Server 5.2 (for Solaris 8 and 9) with patch 5.2hf2.13 or later..
where can I download patch 5.2hf2.13 for messaging server 5.2 ?

Hi,
If you have a support contract with SUN you can log a service request to get a copy of the patch via:

Messaging Server IMAP capabilities

What capabilities
does the IMAP server support?
The IMAP server supports these capabilities:

<UL>
<LI>
IMAP4 (RFC 1730)
<LI>
IMAP4rev1 (RFC 2060)
<LI>
QUOTA (RFC 2087)
<LI>
LITERAL+ (RFC 2088)
<LI>
AUTH=LOGIN
<LI>
X-NETSCAPE
<LI>
XSENDER
<LI>
SCAN
</UL>
AUTH=LOGIN
<UL>Server supports the UW "LOGIN" SASL method. Note that this mechanism
has never been officially published in a standards track document, and
newer implementations are encouraged to use the "PLAIN" SASL method, described
in draft-newman-sasl-plaintrans-02.txt (or newer revisions of that document)
and supported by version 4.0 of the Netscape Messaging Server.
The LOGIN method works as follows for the IMAP4 SASL profile (comments
are offset to the right of the protocol exchange):
 C: A001 AUTHENTICATE LOGIN
 S: + VXNlcm5hbWU6AA== '+'
SP base_64(arbitrary_text) CRLF ; (here, "Username:")
 C: Zm9vYmFy
base_64(username) CRLF ; (here, "foobar")
 S: + UGFzc3dvcmQ6AA== '+'
SP base_64(arbitrary_text) CRLF ; (here, "Password:")
 C: c2VjcmV0
base_64(password) CRLF; (here, "secret")
 S: A001 OK Authentication successful
This same basic method and exchange is used for POP and SMTP authentication,
with slight adjustments for protocol differences; i.e. the initiation and
acknowledgement lines will change, but the internal base 64 dialog will
be the same. "arbitrary_text" (anything between the server supplied '+'
and the following CRLF) is not required.</UL>
X-NETSCAPE
<UL>Server supports specific Netscape vendor extensions, enabled by the
NETSCAPE command.
 C: A002 NETSCAPE
 S: * OK [NETSCAPE] Netscape Communications Corporation
 S: * VERSION 3.0 SOLARIS
 S: * ACCOUNT-URL "http://jimi-hendrix.mcom.com:1234/"
 S: A002 OK NETSCAPE completed
Description of specific responses:
<UL>
<LI>
"VERSION" SP version_id SP platform CRLF
<UL>version_id and platform are of type astring and contain textual information.
It is not guaranteed that version_id is a simple numeric version as it
may include build date and patch information.</UL>
<LI>
"ACCOUNT-URL" SP url CRLF
<UL>url is of type astring. This response provides the URL of a service
providing administrative options for this server. In the 3.x series server
this info is stored in the master configuration database under the key
"AccountURL" (in /etc/netscape.mail.conf on Unix servers, and in the NT
registry for NT systems.)</UL>
</UL>
Both responses may be considered optional. The server is not guaranteed
to provide either or both or in any particular order. In practice, the
VERSION response is always generated, and the ACCOUNT-URL will be generated
if the server configuration information is present.</UL>
XSENDER
<UL>Server supports a mechanism to retrieve envelope information
 indicating that the message was received via Authenticated SMTP.
The specific mechanism is the addition of a new FETCH parameter "XSENDER";
which returns one astring - the address of the authenticated sender of
the message. This may be used in addition to any other FETCH parameters.
 C: A003 FETCH 23 XSENDER
 S: * FETCH 23 (XSENDER "[email protected]")
 S: A003 OK FETCH completed
Fetching XSENDER on a non-verified message will return an empty string.</UL>
SCAN
<UL>Server supports the UW SCAN extension, which is a mechanism to combine
list and searching. Note that this mechanism has never been officially
published in a standards track document. Communicator does not support
it. This capability will NOT be supported in Messaging Server 4.</UL>
The IMAP server also supports an undocumented PROXYAUTH capability which
allows an administrator access to a user mailbox by using the administration
password (this is used by migration tools).

If you wanted to get the GOST cipher suite implemented the best place to start would be to ask on the mozilla newsgroup (mozilla.dev.tech.crypto) although as was pointed our by a Messaging Server developer, implementing the GOST suite is far from straight-forward which may explain why nobody has implemented it till now.
I did however find the following RFC which may help your endeavours:

You may have a file permissions problem. This can happen if you change
the Unix account that Messaging Server runs as. Try changing the
permissions on the "bin" directory in your Netscape server root to make
sure that the current Messaging Server user account has access to it
(try granting public read and execute permissions to that directory);
this should solve the problem.

Amazing how you can do something as difficult as mod a game not yet built to be modded and yet not even know the basics of the basics of the command prompt, nor have the capacity to research it apparently.
