The Email Server is designed to provide services offered by its commercial email products, such as IMAP/POP services, Web-Based Email Interface and Administration, Mail Filtering, Spam Blocking and Directory-Based Authentication and Addressbooks.
RH Email Server is fine for businesses and organizations of all sizes. Multiple commercial and educational installations are already using this project. The largest current user load that has been reported is 7,000 + users.
Interoperability between RHSD projects such as the RHSD Email Server and the RHSD Domain Controller will allow for use of Single-Sign On. RHSD also utilizes IETF Standardized projects and therefore will be compatible with any Directory system compatible with LDAP v.3.
Main features:
- Web-Based Email Client for Users
- LDAP Directory / Authentication
- Mail Filtering
- Addressbooks
- Web-Based Administration Tools
- Role-Based Tool Delegation
- Spam Blocking

EMailRobot is a simple object-oriented framework for developing email auto-responders.
It performs actions based on parameters extracted from received email bodies and generates answer emails.
Enhancements:
- Minor fixes were made and documentation and installation notes were added.

Email sends email to remote SMTP servers via the command line, which makes it useful in cron jobs. It will send to any RFC standard remote ESMTP server, and will allow you to encrypt, sign, and design your message on the fly.
It has the capability to use signature files with dynamic options, address book functionality, and users can also attach pictures, binary files, documents, or whatever they want. It is completely compatible with GNUPG for encryption and signing, and is easy to configure and use.
Enhancements:
- A bug where an assert caused an abort when encrypting any message with GnuPG under Cygwin has been fixed.
- Compile time problems where the compiler would complain about SIG* being undeclared have been fixed.
- There is some minor source code cleanup.

BIRT, the Batch Image Resizing Thing, is a simple application that allows a large number of images to be resized in one go. Obviously this is possible by scripting ImageMagick but its usually somewhat easier with a GUI.
Bulk Image Resizing Thing was created in order to learn how to develop using the Qt library, and to facilitaty the maintenance of an online photo album where each hi-res photo needs a low-res copy and a thumbnail.
Usage
BIRT has a hypertext based online help system (visible in some of the screenshots below), to access this simply start the application and click on the Help button at the bottom of the BIRT window.
If you cant wait to read the help then here is a basic guide to using BIRT: simply select the image files to be resized, enter the new size, select the output directory and press Go. A more detailed instruction set, include explanations of the ratio options and output suffix/prefix fields can be found in the How To Use BIRT section of the help.
Enhancements:
- A problem with the Help dialog that would prevent it being re-opened if it was closed using the systems close window widget rather than the "Quit" button was fixed.

qgreylistrbl is an add-on for qmail.

Now there are a lot of methods against spam, I have combined two of them: greylisting only for dialin nodes and nodes listed on a RBL. NDNs with more than one recipient will be rejected with permanent error messages and without a greylist entry. A test for EHLO/HELO spoofing was added: if a string is obviously spoofed, the connection will be rejected with a permanent error message, without a greylist entry, and advice to RFC2821. You can define a maximum number of recipients per email.

Greylisting returns a temporary SMTP error at the first delivery attempt. Most spam is sent from bulk mailers that dont retry, so these attempts are blocked. Real mail servers will retry later after a temporary error, allowing the message to go through.

Of course cannot all mail be delayed half an hour or longer to our customers. Thats why I have decided to modify the program qgreylist from Jon Atkins. I have added a RBL request to accept emails from not RBL listed nodes and to delay only dialin lines and RBL listed nodes. The script tests the PTR record of each connecting host for a regular expression to detect dialin nodes.

qgreylist from Jon Atkins puts all files in one base dir. qgreylistrbl creates here a directory structure because of performance reasons. The cleanup is now done by a separate cronjob script and not by qgreylistrbl itself, because when there were some ten thousand files inside the mail server nearly stands still.

Most bulk mailers and zombies,too, do not have queue management. They blast that much emails out into the net, they would be swamped with it. An Example: We use a UW-160 Raid 10 for the queue, but the usual zombie out there has only one IDE disc. Beside even a layman would ask why his hard drive was running all the time.

Effect

80% less spam. Yes, truly. No false positives, NO email gets lost.

Usage

qgreylistrbl is a replacement for rblsmtpd by D.J. Bernstein. Simply put qgreylistrbl instead of rblsmtpd in the command line for starting qmail-smtpd.

Performance

qgreylistrbl is a Perl script. Expect some CPU usage. If you run a QMAILQUEUE-patched version of qmail-smtpd and spamassassin, the load will decrease extensive, because most connection attempts do not cause a mail delivery. With perl > 5.6.1 you can precompile the source code with perlcc.

Installation:

Just copy the perl script wherever you want and edit the start script for qmail-smtpd. qgreylistrbl is a simple replacement for rblsmtpd from D.J. Bernstein and can be used the same way.

Create the greylist IP folder:

# mkdir /var/qmail/qgreylistrbl
# chown qmaild /var/qmail/qgreylistrbl

Adjust User

If you need to install the perl module Mail:RBL, just do the following:
From the root prompt on your server, invoke the CPAN shell:

# perl -MCPAN -e shell

Once the Perl interpreter has loaded (and been configured), you can install modules by issuing the command install MODULENAME.

The first thing you should do is upgrade your CPAN:

cpan> install Bundle::CPAN

Once its done (it will take a while, just enter all questions), type:

cpan> reload cpan

Now, enter the following command to retrieve all of the required modules:

cpan> install Mail::RBL

Then you can be shure everything is installed to correct locations.

Configuration:

At the beginnung of the script you have to adjust a few variables. See script for more details. Important are hostname, working directory, some paths and RBL services. You have to add a crontab entry as follows:

*/20 * * * * vpopmail /var/qmail/bin/qgreylist_cleanup.pl

Adjust user, path and time before.
Dont forget so set up logging facility in /etc/syslog.conf

OutOfOffice answers your email with the message you have set when you are out of your office.
