Hello, I am new to FreeBSD, but nevertheless, I have been given the assignment of creating a FreeBSD based mail server for the ISP I work for. I have installed popper and sendmail. I am able to send mail between local users (root@localhost & dave@localhost) via Pine. I can telnet to smtp, pop3 and ftp and interact with each. Now that is issue has been tackled, I am in need of some help in regards to how to establish my users. 1. I do not want to grant ordinary mail users shell accouts or telnet access into the server. Only POP3 and FTP access into *their* homepage space. How do I do this? I assume it goes into which group your user belongs to, and despite scouring Greg Lehey's Complete FreeBSD, I can't determine which. 2. I do not want users eating up more than 5MB of mail, per box. How do I establish quotas? And finally, while of minor importance, I am coming up with a strange issue when sending mail with PINE. It can take up to 60 seconds or so before the SENDING 0% ] indicator changes over to confirmation that the message has been sent. I think it's trying to do some kind of name resolution, but it doesn't matter if I send mail to @localhost, @machine or to @machine.domain. Just strange.. Anyway, thank you very much in advance.
