General :: Postfix And Gmail / Dropping Approx 50% Of Mails With An Error?
Nov 14, 2010
I've setup postfox on Fedora 13 in order to send emails to and from gmail. I thought this was working, but it is dropping approx 50% of mails with an error. The other 50% work OK. It seems completely random.
I've read the link but I stil dont quite understand.
My machine is just a PC, on talktalk's network in the UK.
I use dyndns to allocate a DNS alias (well several actually) to my dynamic IP address - not sure if this is relevent.
Is it failing due to a reverse DNS lookup on the dyndns host? Or is it because it cannot resolve my localhost.localdomain?
I used to have this running on opensuse and swear it used to work 100% of the time.
What am I doing wrong?

Is there a way to set empathy check for gmail mails? I use a google talk account and it makes sense to me, that, if I am already logged into gmail, check the mail as well. Pidgin and gtalk have this option, but I can't find it in empathy. I know there are plenty of gmail notification apps, but I just don't see the point of having to install another app that logs into the same account to check the mails...

Option to play sound is checked (same option in gconf-editor is checked too). But there is no sound on new emails.Default notification file (notify.wav) is playing OK with other software.I even try to edit source code (python) of cGmail to disable check of option in gconf-editor. But still no sound.

I've running my mails from 3 domains on Google Apps for several time, but I think it's time to set up my own Mail-Server now. I have a vServer and want to migrate my existing mails after setting it up. Now I have 2 questions.
1. Which components do I need / do you prefer for a mail-server(imap, smpt, webinterface)?
2. How do I get all my existing Mails in there?

I've enabled popb4smtp in my mail server. Is this because of the IP 117.58.246.10 don't have a dns record? How can I sending email from this type of Ip which don't have dns entry?. But if I enable SMTP auth I can send email form this same ip. Another thing is I can connect to port 587 from the email client to send email but can't connect to port 25.

I have Postfix set up to forward e-mails to two different addresses. This is my /etc/postfix/virtual:
Code:
I'm forwarding the message back to myself because that's the only way I know if the original message is even getting delivered in the first place.
The problem is that the e-mail isn't making it into my GMail inbox. I've checked my spam folder and it isn't there. And bafflingly, according to the logs, the message does seem to be getting sent:

On the postfix mailserver of our company I'm seeing several of these messages in the deferred queue (apologies for the terrible formatting, I couldn't get it any better) code...
looking at the headers, there is probably something wrong with our DNS-server, which we will investigate, but I still have some questions about the failure notice:
- why are the failure notices refused? Is that a fault on the sender side, for example sending the wrong return address?
- where does this mxcorp1.pacific.net.sg[192.169.41.21] come from anyway? I don't see it anywhere in the headers.

we have a Postfix mail relay server. Not to be an open relay we use check_sender_access restriction with allowed sender domains. Is there a way how to configure postfix to accept mails from any domain for a specified recipient? Something like
Code:
if (recipient_address==host@mydomain.com) accept; We have an admin mailbox and we need it to be accessible from everywhere.

I have configured postfix to send/receive mail from/to for two domains we manage. [URL] and [URL] Most of the cases there is no issue sending out or receiving emails. However, a few users of domainY.com complained that their senders were not able to sent them email. after much investigation, we started thinking that the mailserver failed to send us email may the failing on doing a SMTP Banner issue.
Is there anyone who knows how to deal with this SMTP banner issue with multiple domain. We want different SMTP banner when doing EHLO on different server.

Today I got a call from our chairman saying that he gets duplicate mails. When I checked the postfix logs, I found that it is the locks that are creating problems. The mail which duplicated was to an alias which included our chairman. In that alias, the mailbox of a user was locked since he was receiving his mails (I use dovecot for mail distribution), and hence the lock was on for that mailbox. When postfix tried to deliver the mails, it encountered the lock and the mail delivery was stopped, thus by requeuing the specific mail. While postfix retried the delivery, it found another lock with another mailbox and again the delivery was stopped, thus sending the mail back to queue

I'm trying to configure postfix on an ubuntu virtual machine to use gmail as a relay client. For the past two days I have been in and out of the logs, changing parameters and blindly following tutorials but I can't get anything to work properly. So far I've narrowed my problems down to tls connection establishing and a failure to authenticate, judging by the local emails I've received from "The mail system".

Actually I used a skeleton init script provided in /etc/init.d/ and did some edits to run my own daemon process. This is my source code of file
#! /bin/sh
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: statd
# Required-Start: $remote_fs $syslog
# Required-Stop: $remote_fs $syslog
# Default-Start: 2 3 4 5
[Code]...
Where is a mistake and this script also not printing a "starting [DAEMON]" or "stop [DAEMON]" when I executed the command sudo service [daemon] start/stop
