I see.. however, every message I get (including all messages I would class as spam, ie fishing emails etc) they dont seem to be getting caught.

<no-reply@vivaslimcbd.ru.com> X-Spam-Level: *** X-Spam-Status: False,
score=3.0 required=5.0     # Set the threshold at which a message
is considered spam (default: 5.0) # # required_score 5.0  

In your example, the message has a spam score of 3.0, but it needs a score of at least 5.0 to be considered spam.

That's why it set "X-Spam-Status: False".

If you have Citadel configured to "Flag spam instead of rejecting it" you'll still receive that message, but you can configure it to be redirected or rejected in your inbox rules. But it's not going to do anything for a message that isn't considered spam.

I've only just first-time installed Citadel on Debian 12, using Docker.  Many thanks to all those who work on this great software.

All is fine so far, except ...

When I logged into my own server, I created an ordinary user with name and p/w.  Then I logged out and logged in as admin.  Also no problem.

But when I try to log out as admin so that I can go back to the ordinary user, I hit "Log in again", and it just takes me straight back to "logged in as admin" — there is no opportunity to enter the other credentials.

Am I doing something wrong?  I've read the FAQ and Docs ... can't find any help.

No expert here, but id try incognito mode in the browser.  to me it sounds like something is being cached.

Many thanks for the suggestion, you're right.  I'll have to try to see why that's happening!  Regards.

Mon Jun 10 2024 09:22:42 EDT from IGnatius T Foobar Subject: Re: LDAP and OPENID

I am running Debian 12, do you know if OPENID is still supported
and what libraries LDAP requires so that the modules are built
during the easy setup process?

OpenID isn't supported anymore, no one was using it and it was becoming a burden to maintain. In the future we are likely to add OAuth and/or SAML because that seems to be what the world is using now.

LDAP is fully supported in every build. If you have Citadel you have LDAP.

 

Mr. Foobar and Support Team,

If LDAP is fully supported, how do you get rid of the message, "NOTE: This Citadel server has been built without LDAP support. These options will have no effect." 

Please also not that my install was partially executed and that i had to manually add some of the "systemctl services"

How do I ENABLE the LDAP support?

I am on debian bookworm.

On a fresh install i am using this

apt install build-essential curl g++ gettext shared-mime-info libssl-dev slapd ldap-utils libical-dev libstdc++6

together with the easy-install script.

Might be too much but is doing the job.

Im on Debian bookworm ( fresh installed )

A fresh install with

apt install build-essential curl g++ gettext shared-mime-info libssl-dev slapd ldap-utils libical-dev libstdc++6

and the easy-install script ends with a working citadel server.

All domain user are pulled in and accessable, BUT not the build in admin user.

So how do i access the bulid in admin user ?

Hello. I've installed Citadel on a Debian 12 VPS using the EasyIntall process.  All the compilations, etc, seemed to go without a problem.  Eventually, it got to "Restarting Citadel server to apply changes",

which was followed by a line of dots which were replaced by * as the procedure advanced.

When it got to four dots from the end, however, everything hangs.  It just sits there, with the last 4 dots unmoving.  Eventually, I broke out with a ctrl-C, and ran citadel setup manually, but exactly the same thing happened.

I should add that I accepted all the defaults for the questions that were asked by the setup process, as they seemed reasonable.

All the required ports are open.

I'd appreciate some advice.

Thank you to all those who have put in so much hard work on this project!

Greetings,

I just visited the Citadel website and found that a link on the website (to the feature list) is broken.

It seems important for new visitors and potential users to be able to find out about the features of Citadel.

From the Web Archive, this link seems broken for a while now.

Link goes to:  https://www.citadel.org/doku.php?id=features

Showing this at the destination:

I went back several years and last time this link worked was in 2019:

Suggestion is to fix the broken link.

All the best,
Ernst

... excuse me, 2020.

I guess just the link URL needs to be updated.

All the best,
Ernst

Hello,

Is it possible to edit a mail in "Drafts" under "My folders"?

Thanks!

I didn't like that general users can see the host location of other visitors. So I made a change (TestUser001 is a non-admin testing account).

Here's the file and location of what you need to edit

- /usr/local/webcit/static/t/who/section.html
- or - /usr/local/webcit/local.static/t/who/section.html

I have a server that seems to be keeping the logs forever, and keeps running out of space. How do I force it to remove the logs once they are committed?

Marisa

Would be better posting this over in the support room, will be more likely to be seen. ( and no, i dont have the answer )

Oops! Meant to do that!

Nice little hack.

Granted WebCit is on the way out, I do feel in the interim something to this effect might be nice in release as a default.

Still, if memory serves that information would still be present via a Who lookup on the text client, so it's still not a complete obfuscation...
