View 2 RepliesI'm running a Debian LAMP server and I am adding postfix. The initial config is working and I can send and receive mail both locally and over the WAN. The problem is that I cannot get mail delivered to the user's home directory using Maildir/. I have set the:home_mailbox = Maildir/ parameter in main.cf but mail still goes to /var/mail after Postfix reload. The system is now using Maildir/ instead of mbox but in /var/mail. I really want to get mail into the user's home directory.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI run a server that is connected to several other boxes in a private network (192.168.0.0). I have had no problems previously, but upon a reinstall of Debian squeeze I have no connectivity to the private network: a ping of other addresses on that network fail. Ping and connection to outside world is fine. This box is configured similarly to another on this private network which connects successfully. I have quadruple-checked all my basic information. I post my ifconfig below of the malfunctioning device, then the ifconfig for equivalent nic on a box connected succesfully to the private network.
Questions:
1.Could it be a cable problem? (I don't see how since the cables have not been changed I do not believe since my reinstallation).
2. What about the difference in the last lines of eth1 below and eth2 of the successful box. Is it significant that the bad eth1 reads Memory:fc3a0000-fc3c0000
so i set out to change the default smtp port the server uses because my ISP blocks port 25 and i need the email to work in outlook. this morning i could receive email, but not send it. so i did some research and thought that i needed to edit the master.cf file in /etc/postfix/ by commenting out this line: smtp inet n - n - - smtpd -oand replace it with587 inet n - n - - smtpd (587 being the port i want to use)somewhere along the lines postfix server stopped running and now i cannot get it to start.if i try using SSH it crashes immediately and if i restart it in simple control panel nothing happens

View 13 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to get my network set up. There is an internal network separated, by a dedicated firewall, from the DMZ. I'm trying to send mail from the internal network, using mutt, to the postfix server on the DMZ.No firewall is set up yet on the dedicated firewall(the whole network is, at the moment, protected by the border router) Mutt was installed with the smtp, pop,imap,ssl,sasl,gdbm options.
I thought the fact that it was compiled with the SMTP flag set would enable me to either send mail without an MTA on the same machine that mutt is installed on(internal network host) Or that i could just specify the path to the sendmail binary and not have to start postfix as a daemon ?I've found out that sendmail is supposed to be a postfix command. So i added:
Code:
sendmail="/usr/sbin/sendmail"
to /Users/me/.mutt/muttrc
But now when i start mutt i get an error saying:
Code:
/usr/sbin/sendmail: Unknown command
Obviously i started postfix before firing up mutt The permissions say that i should be able to execute sendmail as a normal user.But mutt isn't dealing with it, even though permissions appear to be correct.What do i need to do to get mail, from a normal user, over my LAN working(with mutt and postfix)?Once i have this working then i can get a proper domain name and configure postfix on the DMZ for SASL+TLS etc etcBTW i can send mail to postfix from internal network using
Code:
telnet serverhost 25
etc
telnet localhost 25 when rcpt to:mike@test.com ,report error: 451 4.3.0 <lisi@test.com>:Temporary lookup failure
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have postfix installed on 2 different boxes for 2 different domains in my network. The 2 boxes are in a single network which has a PIX firewall as the internet gateway. In the PIX the external IPs are being mapped with internal IPs of the corresponding boxes. In fact, the boxes are able to resolve the IPs of each other from the DNS. But none of them can contact each other using external IPs. They don't even ping each other with external IPs, but works fine with internal IPs. When investigated on the issue, I found that this cannot be called an issue, but this is how a network is designed (Not sure if I am right). But all the boxes can contact each other using their internal IPs.
The tweak in my mind is to specify the internal IP of the other mail server in the same network, to postfix. Is there anyway to do this?
I tried specifying the internal IP in /etc/hosts, but did not help. I came to a conclusion that postfix is not considering /etc/hosts file (Again I am not sure).
I am running Fedora 10, Postfix and Dovecot I recently changed the password of a user using the 'passwd' command. The problem is that the user can no longer receive their email messages in Thunderbird (Authentication Error). However, they can still login using SquirrelMail and get their mail.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWe moved over from Cpanel using Exim. I was wondering if anyone knew of way to convert the mail so when a user logs in they get to all their mail in their folders. I notice exim has a ton of folders while postfix creates files that act like folders which contain all the emails. I sent up 1 of the emails into the our mail folder that was created by Exim and it can be Subscribed to in Outlook with imap but the emails inside doesn't show up. They both appear as text files so I don't know what the difference is.
View 1 Replies View Relatedhow the whole mail server thing works, and what software handles what job. From my understanding POP3 and IMAP are protocols to pull email from a mail server, and SMTP is used to push email to a server. There are many programs that I've seen involved with creating a mail server, but I'm trying to use just Postfix. Postfix can send and receive email right?
My server runs in my basement and runs Ubuntu Server 10.10. It uses Cherokee as its web server, and it runs several other servers as well (SSH, FTP, Git, etc). My goal is to set up a mail server so that websites I run such as a Redmine or a web forum can send emails to people (e.g. an activation email for a user registering on a forum).
Anyway, I set up postfix, and now my server can receive email. I've been able to send an email from my Gmail address to drew@minipenguin.com (my server), and it works. However, if I try to send email from drew@minipenguin.com to my Gmail, it never goes through. I don't care about receiving email, as my only goal is to be able to send it.

I've set up both Postfix and Dovecot on my server. I can currently send mail via Outlook to Postfix over Port 587 (rather than Port 25), and receive mail from Dovecot on Outlook. However, the only mails I am able to receive are those originated from within the server itself. If I attempt to send an e-mail to the address my Outlook listens to, the mail will never reach my Outlook. In other words, no one on the Internet is able to send mail to me.
Can someone tell me:
1) If setting Postfix to listen over Port 587 for my Outlook to send mail outwards is preventing me to have Postfix to listen to mails coming from the Internet? Would I have to turn on both Ports 25 and 587 in /etc/postfix/master.cf?
2) I have configured my Postfix to use saslauthd by authenticating those who are on /etc/passwd. This means I can enter my Linux account details into Outlook in order to connect and download messages. However, does this mean other MTA servers on the Internet who doesn't know my account details are unable to authenticate with my Postfix server and send mails to it?
I'm having a problem with Postfix sending email. To be more specific, Postfix sends mail perfect but when my web server running webmail (RoundCube) connects to my mail server to send email, it fails & there is nothing in the logs that explain to me why:

I'm setting up a server and trying to make it *very* secure. Before I configured my web stack, I was about to install some security packages, Tiger and Samhain, but these packages wanted to install sendmail so that they can send outgoing notifications. From the reading I've been doing, I believe I want postfix instead of sendmail. It is my (perhaps mistaken) belief that installing postfix first will prevent them from installing this sendmail I do not want.
I want to install postfix with the following goals in mind:
* let PHP scripts send mail using the mail function.
* various system notification functions (cron, etc.) will be able to send their emails
* emails destined for root@localhost will be redirected to admin@mydomain.com
* let tiger and/or samhain send their notification emails
* NO INCOMING OR LOCAL MAIL IS PERMITTED. Because mail for my domain is handled by google apps, nobody will be checking mail on this server. Also, this server has very limited disk space. It is therefore very important that we don't have mail accumulating in boxes that will never be checked.
* no unnecessary ports, services, or cron jobs are running.
I've been reading a variety of pages that describe postfix setup on Ubuntu but these articles are imprecise, incomplete, and describe installation of things I don't want like POP/IMAP/etc.
There's also one final wrinkle. I will be setting up postfix to send via Amazon SES.
