I'm stuck with postfix. It cannot send emails and I cannot find out why! smtpPort 25/tcp is open. I can telnet localhost with 25, but not the localhosts IP(192.168.1.15). Sendmail is OFF. Here is the main.cf file!

I'm experimenting with with mail-servers now and I'm trying to configure postfix to send emails from one email(pop3 is gmail) to any email outside the local network. Server is Ubuntu 10.10 with the last updates.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a server with a domain running and im trying to resolve the mail server but i can't see where to start. I use OpenSuse 11.2. Basically, for starting, i want postfix to send incoming emails to a php script or perl. for outgoing emails i guess that i could use php mail function and i will see what else to have. I configured the dns. I do a dig.mydomain.tld MX and i get the following:
mydomain.tld3600INMX0 mail.mydomain.tld
mail.mydomain.tld 3600INAmyNumericalIp
So now my system is receiving MX content but i dont know what to do.
I have a web application installed on a Debian server that sends out a lot of e-mails. Is there a way to configure Postfix to retain the messages in a queue and send all of them at midnight for example
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to configure postfix to send e-mails but it is not receiving requests from networks different from its localnet (192.168.1.0/24). Iptables is like this:
Code:
Chain INPUT (policy DROP)
target prot opt source destination
ACCEPT all -- 10.0.0.0/8 anywhere
ACCEPT all -- localnet/24 anywhere
ACCEPT udp -- anywhere anywhere
ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere state RELATED,ESTABLISHED
A part of main.cf is like this:
Code:
biff = no
append_dot_mydomain = no
delay_warning_time = 4h .....
I just configured my first postfix mail server today. Everything is working correctly except for the fact that on all outgoing emails instead of the mail format being user@mydomain.biz it says user@hostnameofpostfixserver. I've looked everywhere I can think and I cant see where I'm substituting the host-name of the server for the domain name of my email. Where else could it be?Below is my main.cf.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am newbie to postfix. I added a new domain to my postfix server in the main.cf under mydestinations variable and the relay_domains file. Also, added this domain to my backend exchange server. When I send a test message from the new domain, my messages from that domain appear to be stuck in the "queue active". What does it mean when you are stuck in this queue? Does this mean that my backend email server (exchange 2003) isn't allowing messages from this new domain OR that the POSTFIX server still needs configuring.

View 1 Replies View RelatedOne of our postfix servers is for sending/receiving internal emails only. When a user entered a wrong recipient address, it will take almost an hour for the user to get the "Recipient address rejected" email. What can be done to let the user get the "Recipient address rejected" email quickier.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm building a replacement postfix email server and I'm getting intermittant loss of sent emails; where: sometimes mail ends up at the recipient (a hotmail address) and sometimes not. Having an offsite relay (or posting directly to the internet) doesnt help either. (Although using hotmail itself as a relay always works despite logged complaints about unchecked ssl certs) Most dissapointingly the log files for the smtp transations are the same for successfully received emails as for the "lost" emails.

I've recently followed a guide I found online [1] and installed Postfix and Courier on my server machine. I can send emails from the server to any email address but unfortunately I can only receive emails sent from the server - it's only accepting emails sent locally from the host.

When login in my gmail account i can't see nothing under the sent / inbox / spam folder.
it's seems like the mail are been sent.. but nothing is happening.
I am using postfix as my MTA. It is running on ubuntu and I am administering the system through webmin, try as I might with different configurations, I can't send email from a client. when I look in the mail.log i only find:
Jul 26 15:31:00 alpha postfix/smtpd[17430]: connect from unknown[99.153.1.214]
Jul 26 15:31:31 alpha postfix/smtpd[17430]: lost connection after UNKNOWN from unknown[99.153.1.214]

I've been looking for a way to filter out emails on my postfix server by GeoIP data. I couldn't find anything that fitted the bill so wrote my own in Python as a postfix policy. Thought I'd post it here to see if it's of any use to anyone else. I've attached a tar of the files as the Python formatting will get mucked up by the forum code. Comments/improvements are welcome (be kind ) First file is : policyd-geoip which is owned by root:root and placed in /usr/bin with 755 perms

I got a weird postfix setup question? This is a separate server to the one I posted about earlier today.
I need to setup a postfix server which will accept emails for local know address (full addresses) and deliver them straight to the users maildir.
Any unknown addresses (however for the same domain), needs to be relayed to another server.
This is a bit of a special setup as there is no fixed Internet connection to the server. So the plan is that local email get delivered straight away whilst emails to the same @domain, but that doesn't exist in the user tables get put in the hold queue and is later relayed to server number 2 when a connection is available.
I am using mysql to retrieve all my settings into postfix.
How would one setup a header_check that would discard all emails that have more than 6 words in it? Such as, if there are more than 6 spaces in the entire message it would be deleted? I cannot find this out but it would reduce my spam intake by 50+ a day.

View 3 Replies View RelatedHas thunderbird (recent version) have a "TEST" function ? basically, i'm trying to send messages, with 20+ accounts (different emails, but one domain / SMTP server). one account works fine - the other one doesn't. i go to my "outgoing server" & everything is fine - usernames / ports etc..) The settings for each account do show the right outgoing server. If i 'send later' & close down thunderbird, 7 re-open - it asks me for my password again (which it saves), & then it is able to send the email.
QUESTION :- is there a TESt option that will test each & EVERY account in one timeslot ? Ie, will go through each email address - sends an email to itself (the same address), & sends it. it will then try the server again, to see if the email was received. & then give me a single report, of all the incorrect settings.(I've tried this 1 email account half a dozen times tonight & i dont know *WHY* its not sending on the 1st go.. )
I'm writing a script that will send an alert email given certain conditions. I have the impression that sendmail is what I need to do that. I just don't know how to use sendmail at all. I assume I have to set it up like a typical mail client so that it has a mail server to log into to send from.
I've looked through the man pages, but I can't find anything in plain English there on how to set it up, or how to use it once it is set up.
My problem is that I cannot send mail with postfix. For all mail I get connection timeout Example: (delivery temporarily suspended: connect to [URL] Connection timed out)
