Template: masqmail/note_moved_tpl
Type: note
Description: Failure notice templates have been moved
 The delivery failure notices that lived in /etc/masqmail/tpl are now in
 /usr/share/masqmail/tpl/.
 .
 You will notice this only if you have changed the location in
 masqmail.conf or changed the templates.
 .
 Since they are no longer conffiles because of the move, you should
 give a customized version another name, otherwise it will be
 overwritten on the next upgrade.

Template: masqmail/note_pcmcia_scripts
Type: note
Description: Removed executable bit in scripts in /etc/pcmcia/ip-{up,down}.d/
 The scripts in /etc/pcmcia/ip-{up,down}.d/ are deprecated
 and are replaced with the scripts /etc/network/if-{up,down}.d/1masqmail, which
 will work for _any_ network card (not just pcmcia). The executable bit of the
 old scripts has been removed, because otherwise they and the new scripts would be
 exececuted, which is not desired.
 .
 You should remove these scripts from /etc/pcmcia/ip-{up,down}.d/. If you still want
 to use them, just reset the executable bit.
 .
 Whatever you do, you will never see the note again.

Template: masqmail/manage_config_with_debconf
Type: boolean
Default: true
Description: Manage masqmail.conf using debconf?
 The /etc/masqmail/masqmail.conf file can be handled automatically
 by debconf, or manually by you.
 .
 Note that only specific, marked sections of the configuration file will be
 handled by debconf if you select this option; if those markers are absent,
 you will have to update the file manually, or move or delete the file.

Template: masqmail/move_existing_nondebconf_config
Type: boolean
Default: false
Description: Replace existing /etc/masqmail/masqmail.conf file?
 The existing /etc/masqmail/masqmail.conf file currently on the system does
 not contain a marked section for debconf to write its data.
 .
 If you select this option, the existing configuration
 file will be backed up to /etc/masqmail/masqmail.conf.debconf-backup and a
 new file written to /etc/masqmail/masqmail.conf.  If you do not select this
 option, the existing configuration file will not be managed by debconf,
 and no further questions about masqmail configuration will be
 asked.

Template: masqmail/host_name
Type: string
Default:
Description: The name with which masqmail identifies itself to others
 This is most likely your hostname. It is used in its SMTP greeting
 banner, for expanding unqualified addresses, the Message ID and so on.

Template: masqmail/local_hosts
Type: string
Default:
Description: hosts considered local
 This is a list of hosts, separated with semicolons (;), which are
 considered 'local', ie. mail to this host will be delivered to a
 mailbox (or Maildir or MDA) on this host.
 .
 You will most likely insert 'localhost', your hostname in its fully
 qualified version, and just the simple hostname here.
 .
 You can also use wildcard expressions like '*' and '?'.

Template: masqmail/local_nets
Type: string
Default:
Description: nets considered local, for immediate delivery attempts
 This is a list of hosts, separated with semicolons (;), which are
 on your local network, ie. they are always reachable, without a
 dialup connection. Mail to these hosts will be delivered immediately,
 without checking for the online status.
 .
 You can use wildcards expressions like '*' and '?', eg. *.yournet.local
 .
 If you have only one box, you can leave this empty. If you do not want
 to use masqmail as an offline MTA, and the whole internet or another mail
 server which accepts outgoing mail is all time
 reachable to you, just insert '*'.

Template: masqmail/listen_addresses
Type: string
Default: localhost:25
Description: accept connections on these interfaces
 masqmail, for security reasons, does not listen an all network interfaces
 by default. If there are no other hosts connected to your host, just leave
 this 'localhost:25'. If there are other hosts that may want to send SMTP
 messages to this host, add the address of you network interface here,
 eg.: localhost:25;192.168.1.2:25.
 .
 Of course you can also replace the '25' with another port number, but
 this is unusual.

Template: masqmail/use_syslog
Type: boolean
Default: false
Description: use syslogd for logs?
 You can decide whether masqmail should log via syslog or not. If not,
 logs will be written to /var/log/masqmail/masqmail.log.

Template: masqmail/online_detect
Type: select
Choices: file, pipe
Default: file
Description: the online detection method
 masqmail has different methods to determine whether it is online or not,
 these are 'file','pipe'.
 .
 For 'file', masqmail checks for the existence of a file, and, if it
 exists, reads from it the name of the connection.
 .
 For 'pipe', masqmail calls a program or script, which outputs the name
 if online or nothing if not. You can use eg. the program guessnet for this.

Template: masqmail/online_file
Type: string
Default: /var/run/masqmail-route
Description: the name of the file to determine the online status

Template: masqmail/online_pipe
Type: string
Default:
Description: the name of the program to determine the online status
 Note that, when this program is called, masqmail has the user id 'mail'.

Template: masqmail/mbox_default
Type: select
Choices: mbox, mda, maildir
Default: mbox
Description: local delivery style
 Local mail can be delivered to a mailbox, to an MDA (eg. procmail)
 or to a qmail style maildir in the users home dir.
 .
 You can select the default style here. You can configure this also
 on a per-user basis with the options mbox_users, mda_users and
 maildir_users.

Template: masqmail/mda
Type: string
Default: /usr/bin/procmail -Y -d ${rcpt_local}
Description: The MDA command line including options
 Give here the path to the mda, including its arguments. You can use
 substitution values here, eg. ${rcpt_local} for the user name.
 .
 For other substitutions please see the man page.
 .
 (This question is also asked if you did not set mbox_default to mda,
 since you can use mda for a set of users specially)

Template: masqmail/alias_local_caseless
Type: boolean
Default: false
Description: Alias expansion regarding case or not
 masqmail uses the file /etc/aliases to redirect local addresses.
 The search for a match in /etc/aliases can be regarding upper/lower
 case or insensitive to case.

Template: masqmail/init_smtp_daemon
Type: boolean
Default: true
Description: Start SMTP listening daemon?
 Select 'yes' if you want masqmail to start as an SMTP listening
 daemon. You will need this if:
 .
 - there are other hosts in your local network that may want to send mail via this host
 .
 - you use a mail client that sends mail via SMTP (netscape, mozilla are examples)
 .
 If in doubt, select 'yes'.

Template: masqmail/init_queue_daemon
Type: boolean
Default: true
Description: Start SMTP queue running daemon?
 Select 'yes' if you want masqmail to start as a queue running daemon. You will
 need this very likely. It is used for mail that cannot delivered immediately,
 either because of delivery failures or because you were not online on
 the first attempt to send a mail.
 .
 If in doubt, select 'yes'.

Template: masqmail/queue_daemon_ival
Type: string
Default: -q10m
Description: The interval for the queue running daemon
 Set the interval for the queue running daemon. -q10m means flush the queue every
 10 minutes.
 .
 The format is -q, followed by an numeric value and one of the letters s,m,h,d,w for
 seconds, minutes, hours, days or weeks respectively.
 .
 Reasonable values are between 5 minutes (-q5m) and 2 hours (-q2h).

Template: masqmail/init_fetch_daemon
Type: boolean
Default: false
Description: Start POP3 fetch daemon?
 Select 'yes' if you want masqmail to start as a fetch daemon. If you say 'yes',
 masqmail will try to fetch mail from pop servers that you configure in regular
 intervals, detecting the online status first.
 .
 No matter what you choose here, you can later select whether you want to fetch
 mail the moment you get online.

Template: masqmail/fetch_daemon_ival
Type: string
Default: -go5m
Description: The interval for the fetch daemon
 Set the interval for the fetch daemon. -go5m means try to fetch mail every
 5 minutes.
 .
 The format is -go, followed by an numeric value and one of the letters s,m,h,d,w for
 seconds, minutes, hours, days or weeks respectively.
 .
 Reasonable values are between 2 minutes (-go2m) and 2 hours (-go2h).

Template: masqmail/ipup_runqueue
Type: boolean
Default: true
Description: flush mail queue when you get online?
 Select 'yes' if you want masqmail to immediately flush its mail queue as soon
 as you go online. This will be done in the ip-up script in /etc/ppp/ip-up or
 in /etc/network/if-up.d/.

Template: masqmail/ipup_fetch
Type: boolean
Default: false
Description: fetch mail when you get online?
 Select 'yes' if you want masqmail to immediately fetch mail from POP3
 servers as soon as you go online. This will be done in the ip-up script
 in /etc/ppp/ip-up or in /etc/network/if-up.d/.

Template: masqmail/ifup_ifaces
Type: string
Default: all
Description: a list of interfaces used for masqmail online detection
 Set this to a list of network interfaces. When any of those interfaces go
 up, the current online status will be used for queue runs and/or fetching
 mails. The list will be used in the /etc/ppp/ip-up and /etc/network/if-up.d/
 scripts, when the interface goes up.
 .
 A reasonable choice is eg. 'ppp0' for a desktop at home, or 'ppp0 eth0' for
 a notebook". If this is set to eg. 'ppp0', nothing happens if eth0 goes up.
 .
 Set to 'all' for all interfaces, or 'none' for no interfaces.

Template: masqmail/you_are_not_finished
Type: note
Description: You are not finished
 Although masqmail is not as feature rich as other MTAs like sendmail
 or exim, this debconf does not (yet) do all configurations for you.
 .
 To make use of masqmail, you still have to create some sub configuration
 files for sending mail to some ISP and/or to fetch mail. masqmail has
 lots of man pages and examples which are hopefully clear enough to
 explain to you how to do it.
 .
 You should start with the man pages masqmail.conf, masqmail.route
 and masqmail.get.
