The 1969 date implies it was not run, or failed the run.

1. What does the vBouncer diagnostic page show?
2. What does the scheduled task log show?

The diagnostic page has everything Passed. (the vBouncer Spool File Diagnostics are all failed which im not using because im using IMAP)

The scheduled task log shows....

Bouncer Collect 14:30, 14th Jul 2005 Status:
Processed 0 emails No bounced emails found.

O.k. so it looks like it found no bounced emails.

Are you sure there were bounced emails in there? It will ignore any other type of emails, like spam or regular email.

Fallback 07-14-2005 11:19 PM
I found the issue. When I installed the hack began to use the exim spool file method but decided to use the IMAP service because its easier to get going. based on your tip I realized that no emails were being delivered to the account and that was odd because we were getting tons of bounces up until the minute I added the hack. I then remembered that I changed the setting in my exim.conf file as indicated below and when I just changed it back to its normal state the bounce emails resumed delivery to the email account set up to collect bounces.

Exim+cPanel: (thanks to Paul M for this tip)
In the exim config file ( /etc/exim.conf ), near the bottom is a section that begins with virtual_userdelivery: - in that section is a line which says mode = 0660 - change this to mode = 0666
I changed it back to '0660' and it works.

Thanks!

Is there any advantage in using the spool method over IMAP or POP?

If you change the exim config to 0666 you must CHMOD the file to match, if one mismatches the other then it will fail.

The spool method would be faster I would think, but I can't think of any other real major advantage.

Not really, use whichever you like.

Using the file is faster, but speed doesn't really matter, since you only run it once or twice a day. Because IMAP is slighter slower, it may offer a slight advantage by buffering the queries to match email addresses to members. But the differences are slight. IMAP is particularly useful to those who run multiple servers, where the mail server is remote, and the file spool would be inaccessable.

.

When I initially changed the exim config 0666 I did not CHMOD anything. Should anything be changed now that I have changed it back to 0660?

No, you should be fine now.

Before you changed anything, the file was 660 and the config was 660 - because you only changed the config to 666, there was a mismatch and it stopped. Had you then changed the file to 666 it would have been okay as they would have matched again (both 666). You have fixed the mismatch by putting the config back, so they are now both 660 again. :)

Check the header of email notifications you get, if there's a "Return-Path" header with the new email account you created, then you're ready to go.

Owh.. I didn't saw it; honestly.

No, it doesn't show a "Return-Path" header. Generate a reply notification email, and view the full headers of that email.

This isn't sending out pms to warn people.

Auto processing mode: Yes
Bounce limit: 10
Bounce limit period: 7
Send Notification PM: Yes
PM Sender ID: 1
PM Sender Username: boro_boy
Send PM warning: Yes
Warning Limit: 5
Punish Any Unknown Emails: No

Those are my settings, why isn't it sending pms out?

My stats for bounced emails are as follows:

User 1: 25 bounced emails
User 2: 22 bounced emails
User 3: 9 bounced emails
User 4: 6 bounced emails
User 5: 4 bounced emails

So the first 4 users should have got a warning via pm but they didn't. Weird!!!

The PM's will be sent the next time the vbouncer-clean.php task is run. When the vbouncer-collect.php task is run, it just collects the info and generates the stats. If the stats show that some members are due for a warning or auto-processing, those actions will be taken when on the next clean run.

You can make sure of this by just running the -clean task from the task manager, and it will take the required actions now. Check the -clean task logs to make sure the actions were taken.

It worked perfect!

From more then 300 bounces EVERT DAY I now get not more then 2 :D

I changed this setting and vbounce worked great then I noticed today it brought down my entire email delevery system by switching the the email permissions on all the domain accounts on my server causing denial of emailsfor the entire day until it click I was the one that screwed up the system with that setting. I ahve switched it back.

Help! Please!

Not sure about the exim stuff since I've never used it. But you're saying that you switched it back and now the email works fine, but not vBouncer? Why not try the IMAP/POP method, since it will require no changes to Exim.

Correct. Evidentily that setting made all local email boxes on the server where they were chmod to block incoming emails.

I've updated the instruction to warn about this problem, and simply recommended IMAP/POP :)

Tamarian,
Thank you. I have yet to get the IMAP/POP to work. Can anyone point out how they are doing it with Exim>?

I have never used Exim, but it should be no different than any other POP mail account. If you already have created an account for vBouncer, then use the vBouncer setting in the vBulletin Options to enter the POP username and password for that account.

Ok, isntalled this hack, seems to working fine. Just one question though, when i run the vbounce collect and vbounce clean up , is it supposed to clear/purge the stats page? Because my stats just stay there...

The stats are cleared when the defined period is over. So if you minitir bounces within the last 7 days, it will clear stats that are older than 7 days on the next run of the clean script. It will also clear each member's stats if they exced the defined period, and are "processed", to avoid penalizing them for the same bounces.

Don't forget to click install :)

This means that your server's PHP installation was not compiled with IMAP support.

In vbouncer-clean.php find:

PHP Code:
$DB_site->query("DELETE FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "vbouncer WHERE vbouncer.dateline < $TestPeriod"); 
Replace with:

PHP Code:
$DB_site->query("DELETE FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "vbouncer WHERE  dateline < $TestPeriod");

Hi

This is a great hack. Thanks for your good work :)

It all seemed to install ok and it does catch a few but most bounces are not caught. I expect i just need the definitons to go in the .inc file. So if some kind soul could help me out here is one that is not picked up.

Add this to the end of vbouncer.inc
Code:
[case_5]
email_regex = "undeliverable to /<(\S+@\S+)>/mis";
apply_email_regex_on_body = yes;
email_append_host = no;
email_append_host_regex = "";
apply_append_regex_on_body = yes;
consider_as_5_0_0_regex = "/This is a permanent error/mis";
consider_as_550_regex = "/(user unknown|said: 550|unknown recipient|domain not found|mailbox not found|Mailbox unavailable|invalid recipient)/mis";
