ANNOUNCE: XMail Queue Manager for Win32 released!

[hschneider]

XMail Queue Manager gives you full control over the multi level nested mail queue of the server. You can track messages in their different states (sending, resending, frozen). Statistics tell you about the number of spooled messages. Sort entries by any column header field. Start and stop XMail Server directly from this application.

The Win32 version can be leeched at

Hi Harald,

Just setup a xmail box and downloaded Queue Manager to test it.

I have no idea if I have to setup anything for QM to find the que location since I couldn't find a readme.

I receive the following error when I press the "Query" button:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 151, in OnClickToolbar
File "<string>", line 280, in query_queue
File "<string>", line 329, in update_status
File "../libxmaillib.py", line 111, in status
File "C:usrpythonLibsite-packageswin32libwin32serviceutil.py", line 393, in QueryServiceStatus
File "C:usrpythonLibsite-packageswin32libwin32serviceutil.py", line 61, in SmartOpenService
pywintypes.api_error: (1060, 'OpenService', 'The specified service does not exist as an installed service.')


What did I do wrong? :-)

BTW: I run on w2000 Server + SP2

Mailroot is found automatically. Make sure that the XMail Service is installed on your machine and all registry keys are set.

See manual:

5) With regedit create GNU key inside HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWARE and then XMail
key inside HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREGNU
6) Create a new string value named MAIL_ROOT inside HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREGNUXMail
with value C:MailRoot
7) Optionally create a new string value named MAIL_CMD_LINE inside
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREGNUXMail to store Your command line options
( read well the rest of this doc )
8) Open an NT console ( command prompt )
9) Go inside C:MailRootin and run :
XMail --install
for a manual startup, or :
XMail --install-auto
for an automatic startup

Hi Harald,

All the steps you mention has been done.

I still receive the error message. However, I can close the errormessage window and after that I see the message's in the que so that part work's.

If I select an undeliverable message and decide to delete it, I receive the following message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 85, in OnCLickBtnDelete
File "<string>", line 280, in query_queue
File "<string>", line 329, in update_status
File "../libxmaillib.py", line 111, in status
File "C:usrpythonLibsite-packageswin32libwin32serviceutil.py", line 393, in QueryServiceStatus
File "C:usrpythonLibsite-packageswin32libwin32serviceutil.py", line 61, in SmartOpenService
pywintypes.api_error: (1060, 'OpenService', 'The specified service does not exist as an installed service.')

I can close this window and the delete action looks to be performed.

Any idea's ?

Hi,

thanks for this valuable feedback. For some reason, the service name on NT and Win2K differs, which caused that prob. A fixed version can be downloaded now.

Hi,

Tested the updated version on my w2000 and it works perfectly beatiful!!

Suggestions:

- Implement multiselect in listbox.
- Add contextmenu to quickly apply actions on selected item(s).
- Add configurable refresh option in seconds

Thanks for the great tool Harald.

You're welcome ...

Your suggestions will be implemented in the next releaseses. Even some refresh issues of the GUI are on the list ... also an Exporter, that allows exporting a list of messages further processing.

Did you try 0.91 on NT ?



Bye,
Harald

[Aram]

Hi,

I haven't tryed it on NT yet.

PS: What's the difference in servicename between W2000 and NT4?

- Aram Tutunciyan -

[hschneider]

"XMail Service" on Win2K and "XMail Server" on NT ...





Bye,
Harald

[hschneider]

Version 0.93 can be leeched from http://xmail.marketmix.com

Fixed some minor issues under NT and some path probs under Linux/KDE.

Hi Harald

Pretty good tool I realy like it
but a bit slow on slower PCs

Martin

[hschneider]

Thanks!

The prob is, that XMail uses the filesystem as its database. On a standard installation XQM has to search more than 4000 directories to find the queue entries. Maybe I'll rewrite the search engine to use multible threads to gain speed ...

In fact XMail has the same prob on slow PCs.
