Real Time Cyrus Integration Version 2 (sendmail,cyrus)

Install

1. Make cyrus-imap start smmapd daemon. In SERVICES section of cyrus.conf file add the following line:

   smmapd     cmd="smmapd" listen="/var/imap/socket/smmapd" prefork=1 
   

2. Make cyrus-imap "lowercase" received user names. In /etc/imapd.conf add the following line:

   lmtp_downcase_rcpt: 1
   

   It will make cyrus-imap ignore case of user part addresses and convert AndrewFilip@Example.COM to andrewfilip@example.com.
3. Compile sendmail-8.13 with socket map support (or use fstat map patch)
   Sendmail-8.12 requires patch to support socket map.
4. Install FEATURE(`mrs') [It requires patching cf/m4/proto.m4]
5. Install MAILER(`cyrusv2') (Release B)
6. Install FEATURE(`mr_cyrus') for socket map
   OR FEATURE(`mr_cyrus_fstat') for fstat map
   • Install FEATURE(`mrs_cyrus') by installing mrs_cyrus.m4 (the gpg signature in cf/feature/ directory of sendmail distribution.
   • Install FEATURE(`mrs_cyrus_fstat') by installing mrs_cyrus_fstat.m4 (the gpg signature in cf/feature/ directory of sendmail distribution.

7. Modify *.mc file you use to generate your sendmail.cf. Choose one of a few options:

   • mailertable
     Sendmail.mc:

     FEATURE(`mrs')dnl
     FEATURE(`mrs_cyrus')dnl
     MODIFY_MAILER_FLAGS(`CYRUSV2',`-A5')dnl Required ONLY if you use mrs_cyrus_user
     MAILER(`cyrusv2')dnl Required release B if you use mrs_cyrus_mailertable
     

     mailertable:

     # return "user unknown" for non existing cyrus mailboxes
     1st.domain   mrs_cyrus_mailertable:
     # directly specify errot message for non existing cyrus mailboxes
     2nd.domain   mrs_cyrus_mailertable:error:5.1.1:550 User unknown
     # return "user unknown" for non existing cyrus mailboxes - strip domain
     3rd.domain   mrs_cyrus_user:
     

     acess (if you want to accept message to the domains from anywhere):

     to:1st.domain   RELAY
     to:2nd.domain   RELAY
     to:3rd.domain   RELAY
     

     Mailertable DOES NOT work for local email domains (handy link):

     echo '$=w' | sendmail -bt
     

     It will make sendmail check if cyrus is going to accept user1@1st.domain (without stripping 1st. domain) and user2 (with stipped 2nd.domain). In both case addresses not handled by cyrus will be passed to "error" relay [you could use "local:catchrmaining" relay insted of "error" relay].

   • Luser Relay Sendmail.mc:

     define(`LUSER_RELAY',`mrs_cyrus_user:error:5.1.1:550 User unknown')dnl
     FEATURE(`mrs')dnl
     FEATURE(`mrs_cyrus')dnl
     MODIFY_MAILER_FLAGS(`CYRUSV2',`-A5')dnl
     MAILER(`cyrusv2')dnl
     

     It will make sendmail check if cyrus is going to accept user if no OS account is present.

     Remove define(`confLOCAL_MAILER',`cyrus') from your *.mc file.

   • Local Relay Sendmail.mc:

     define(`LOCAL_RELAY',`mrs_cyrus_user:dummy')dnl
     FEATURE(`mrs')dnl
     FEATURE(`mrs_cyrus')dnl
     MODIFY_MAILER_FLAGS(`CYRUSV2',`-A5')dnl
     MAILER(`cyrusv2')dnl
     

     It will make sendmail check if cyrus is going to accept user. Cyrus mailboxes will take precedence over OS maiboxes.

     Remove define(`confLOCAL_MAILER',`cyrus') from your *.mc file.

   • Sticky Hub Sendmail.mc:

     LOCAL_CONFIG
     C{VirtCyrus}1st.domain 2nd.domain 3rd.domain
     divert(-1)
     define(`MAIl_HUB',`mrs_cyrus_stickyhub:dummy')dnl
     FEATURE(`mrs')dnl
     FEATURE(`mrs_cyrus')dnl
     FEATURE(`stickyhost')dnl
     MAILER(`cyrusv2')dnl
     

     it should make sendmail check checkexistence mailboxes in $={Virtcyrus} domains (e.g. user@1st.domai mailbox). $={VirtCyrus} domains must be also local email domains ($=w).

     You MUST put ":dummy" after mrs_cyrus_stickyhub - it is crucial

     Remove define(`confLOCAL_MAILER',`cyrus') from your *.mc file.
