Is it possible for virtual users to use Thunderbird to access emails instead of using webmail? I've tried a test case and cannot seem to get it working. I have setup a server using "The Perfect Server - Fedora 13 x86_64". I have about 10-15 virtual users but most of my users would like to access their emails from one application like Thunderbird, or Outlook. Do I need to make the virtual users regular users? Thanks
Yes, of course! No, please don't try this! What error message do you get in your mail log? What are the outputs of Code: netstat -tap , Code: iptables -L , and Code: getenforce ?
This is the output of netstat -tap Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name tcp 0 0 *:EtherNet/IP-1 *:* LISTEN 1455/sshd tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.net:783 *:* LISTEN 20776/spamd.pid tcp 0 0 *:sunrpc *:* LISTEN 1225/rpcbind tcp 0 0 *:ftp *:* LISTEN 1803/pure-ftpd (SER tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.n:domain *:* LISTEN 1211/named tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.net:ipp *:* LISTEN 1342/cupsd tcp 0 0 *:smtp *:* LISTEN 1756/master tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.net:rndc *:* LISTEN 1211/named tcp 0 0 *:35420 *:* LISTEN 1243/rpc.statd tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.ne:10024 *:* LISTEN 20808/amavisd (mast tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.ne:10025 *:* LISTEN 1756/master tcp 0 0 *:mysql *:* LISTEN 1589/mysqld tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.ne:mysql pillhill.my-linux.ne:38709 ESTABLISHED 1589/mysqld tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.ne:38711 pillhill.my-linux.ne:mysql ESTABLISHED 25560/amavisd (ch1- tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.ne:38716 pillhill.my-linux.ne:mysql ESTABLISHED 25738/virtual tcp 0 596 pillhill.my-:EtherNet/IP-1 h-72-200-00-00.chcgil:50022 ESTABLISHED 25654/sshd: khizkey tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.ne:38707 pillhill.my-linux.ne:mysql ESTABLISHED 25657/proxymap tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.ne:38705 pillhill.my-linux.ne:mysql ESTABLISHED 25657/proxymap tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.ne:mysql pillhill.my-linux.ne:38707 ESTABLISHED 1589/mysqld tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.ne:38708 pillhill.my-linux.ne:mysql ESTABLISHED 25656/smtpd tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.ne:10025 pillhill.my-linux.ne:45774 ESTABLISHED 25737/smtpd tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.ne:38706 pillhill.my-linux.ne:mysql ESTABLISHED 25657/proxymap tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.ne:mysql pillhill.my-linux.ne:38705 ESTABLISHED 1589/mysqld tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.ne:mysql pillhill.my-linux.ne:38711 ESTABLISHED 1589/mysqld tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.ne:mysql pillhill.my-linux.ne:38708 ESTABLISHED 1589/mysqld tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.ne:45774 pillhill.my-linux.ne:10025 ESTABLISHED 25560/amavisd (ch1- tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.ne:38709 pillhill.my-linux.ne:mysql ESTABLISHED 25698/cleanup tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.ne:mysql pillhill.my-linux.ne:38716 ESTABLISHED 1589/mysqld tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.ne:mysql pillhill.my-linux.ne:38706 ESTABLISHED 1589/mysqld tcp 0 0 *op3 *:* LISTEN 1673/couriertcpd tcp 0 0 *:EtherNet/IP-1 *:* LISTEN 1455/sshd tcp 0 0 *:imap *:* LISTEN 1660/couriertcpd tcp 0 0 *:sunrpc *:* LISTEN 1225/rpcbind tcp 0 0 *:http *:* LISTEN 1794/httpd tcp 0 0 *:ftp *:* LISTEN 1803/pure-ftpd (SER tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.n:domain *:* LISTEN 1211/named tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.net:ipp *:* LISTEN 1342/cupsd tcp 0 0 *:43320 *:* LISTEN 1243/rpc.statd tcp 0 0 *:smtp *:* LISTEN 1756/master tcp 0 0 pillhill.my-linux.net:rndc *:* LISTEN 1211/named tcp 0 0 *:https *:* LISTEN 1794/httpd tcp 0 0 *:microsoft-ds *:* LISTEN 1831/smbd tcp 0 0 *:imaps *:* LISTEN 1667/couriertcpd tcp 0 0 *op3s *:* LISTEN 1679/couriertcpd tcp 0 0 *:netbios-ssn *:* LISTEN 1831/smbd [root@pillhill ~]# iptables -L Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination fail2ban-courierpop3 tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp dptop3 fail2ban-courierimap tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:imap fail2ban-SSH tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:EtherNet/IP-1 ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere state RELATED,ESTABLISHED ACCEPT icmp -- anywhere anywhere ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere ACCEPT udp -- anywhere anywhere state NEW udp dpt:netbios-ns ACCEPT udp -- anywhere anywhere state NEW udp dpt:netbios-dgm ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere state NEW tcp dpt:netbios-ssn ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere state NEW tcp dpt:microsoft-ds ACCEPT udp -- anywhere anywhere state NEW udp dpt:netbios-ns ACCEPT udp -- anywhere anywhere state NEW udp dpt:netbios-dgm ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere state NEW tcp dpt:ssh ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere state NEW tcp dpt:mysql REJECT all -- anywhere anywhere reject-with icmp-host-prohibited Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere state RELATED,ESTABLISHED ACCEPT icmp -- anywhere anywhere ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere REJECT all -- anywhere anywhere reject-with icmp-host-prohibited Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain fail2ban-SSH (1 references) target prot opt source destination RETURN all -- anywhere anywhere Chain fail2ban-courierimap (1 references) target prot opt source destination RETURN all -- anywhere anywhere Chain fail2ban-courierpop3 (1 references) target prot opt source destination DROP all -- 210.46.85.170 anywhere RETURN all -- anywhere anywhere in my testID this is what I found in maillog: Jul 13 13:46:05 pillhill imapd: Connection, ip=[::ffff:72.245.50.64] Jul 13 13:46:11 pillhill imapd: LOGIN FAILED, method=PLAIN, ip=[::ffff:72.245.50.64] Jul 13 13:46:16 pillhill imapd: LOGIN FAILED, user=testuser1, ip=[::ffff:72.245.50.64] Thanks but am I missing something?
