Re: Some Help with the mail side of things



Try setting their shell to /bin/false. This should allow pop3 access but disable ftp/telnet/ssh logins.

Hello All,

I am running Postfix 1.1.3 and ipop3d.

What I am wanting to do instead of going a adduser etc.. to add a user
mailbox it have it like a virtual system where I can add a user in and when
they pop in there account pick up mail..  at the moment I have to use the
adduser command to make it work so there have a mailbox on the system...

I have mapped various email addresses to that account and it works find...

The problem I find is that if a use the adduser they can also ssh or ftp
into there accounts..  this is not want I want to happen...

how do a get around (apart from running other mail server) hosting domains
and they want the same name..

ie..  bob@test.com and bob@test1.com these are 2 different people...

I am thinking of maybe a database system..

Many Thanks,
                      Johnno
