Software :: Postfix - Delivers Mail To Unix Mailbox But Not IMAP?

Dec 22, 2010

I setup a postfix mail server. Tested it to make sure it was secure and all seemed good.I sent some test messages and see from the logs that mail is being delivered to the recipient. its only delivering mail to my user's local mbox on the linux server. IMAP appears to have its own mailbox and the two boxes are no linked. I was thinking it was an alias issue however I did at one point have the mailboxes to be the same.... now they are different... Here is the config file.... (I changed the domain names for privacy).

command_directory = /usr/sbin
daemon_directory = /usr/libexec/postfix
data_directory = /var/lib/postfix

General :: Setup A Functioning Imap And Pop3 Mail Server Using Dovecot-postfix?

May 4, 2010

I'm somewhat familiar with Linux and became pretty decent at installing and configuring packages in Ubuntu. One of the things I was able to do with my tinkering was set up a functioning imap and pop3 mail server using dovecot-postfix. Now I'm experimenting with Slackware to get the feel of another distro, and I noticed that the mail server packages were already installed. On my client computer they can pick up that I have users configured and my mx record is working.

However it is failing to send mail saying that it is failing to relay the e-mail message and that the server responded 5.7.1 which was a problem that I was having in Ubuntu when first configuring the mail server. The fix was to edit the postfix.conf file and adding the localhost name of my server. Does anybody know of the file that I need to edit to make it possible to relay my messages with both pop3 and imap.

Ubuntu Servers :: Postfix Delivers Message But Script Not Run?

Jun 5, 2010

I'm trying to get messages sent to an alias to invoke a ruby script.Looking at the postfix log the message is being delivered, but I believe the script isn't being run with sufficient permissions.Quote:

Jun 3 18:31:21 hostname postfix/local[12968]: 340B911A3B4: to=<email@domain.com>, relay=local, delay=0.24, delays=0.2/0.01/0/0.03, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered to command: /var/mailscripts/script)

Ubuntu Servers :: How To Create A Mailbox For Postfix

May 8, 2011

EDIT: Change the topic, see post #3

I've been following this guide: http://flurdy.com/docs/postfix/

And done the points up to "Advanced mail server" and are trying to test mailing mail@mydomain.com to mail@mydomain.com (yes, the same inbox) using Thunderbird, through my own DNS, from the server.

But I get the following error: The message can not be sent because the connection to SMTP server mydomain.com timed out.

And when I check /var/spool/mail/virtual where the mailboxes are supposed to be stored there are none.

So I'm wondering how I create a mailbox with postfix.

I can add that I am quite a noob at linux but have to do this in a school project.

I'm using ubuntu server 10.04 32bit with GUI (yes I know, I know)

Server :: Postfix Mailbox User Migration?

Jan 22, 2010

I'm looking into migrating postfix mailboxes and users from an old machine running Fedora5 to a new machine running cenOS. I was wondering, what would be the procedure to migrating over existing postfix mail to the new machine? Is it as simple as copying over /home directories and /etc/passwd etc?

Ubuntu Servers :: Postfix - Stop All Users From Getting Mailbox?

Mar 13, 2011

I'm just getting started with postfix for the first time (using courier pop) and everything is working well. However I can't seem to figure out how to only allow some system users to have mailboxes?

For example I have a few accounts which are FTP only accounts but they still have mailboxes under postfix? Is there any way to tell postfix the accounts that I actually want mailboxes for?

Also on a side note, I notice that mail seems to be stored under the user's home directory. I'm scared they may accidentally delete them.

Server :: Postfix + Courier + Squirrelmail Tutorial - Can't Get Into Mailbox

Jan 1, 2010

i followed this tutorial to the "T", [URL]. I am not able to login to the mailboxes with squirrelmail, it says "connection dropped by imap server" I used the whole address as a login just like it said to do. I can sucessfully authenticate with outlook express but it throws an error that say's [URL], no such file or directory. i can telnet into it remotely but when i type ehlo [URL] it just keeps showing all the 250 lines and wont let me generate a message.

from what i saw on the comments on the tutorial and googling there are many other people with this problem, however i found no solutions. This is fresh work and i have not touched any config files since finishing the tutorial

Software :: Cyrus Delivering Mail To A Single Mailbox?

Jul 16, 2010

I am running cyrus 2.1 on OpenSusu 11.0. A couple of days ago I tried to install ispCP and it ending up trash my email. I restored everything in /etc/postfix where ispCP had changed a load of files, but unfortunately that did not correct all of my problems. I have several domains with multiple users, most of which deliver to a few local address.

joe@domain1 delivers to joe
admin@domain1 delivers to joe
fred@domain2 delivers to fred
admin@domain2 delivers to fred

all of the email intended for local user is delivered to a single user (e.g. larry).Email that is redirected to an external user (e.g. mike@linuxquestions.org) works fine. Email to non-existent users fails, as expect. I tried deleting the mail box for one of the users and re-creating it, but the problem continues. I have looked through many HOWTOs, web pages and man-pages, but I cannot find any configuration options that addresses this kind of thing.

Oct 4, 2010

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

Server :: Configure Postfix To Relay Mail To Multiple Internal Mail Servers With Different Domains?

Aug 6, 2010

Two exchange servers internally. One is setup for example.com (192.168.1.10) and the other is setup for example2.com (192.168.1.20) Both are behind a single public IP.

I want to use postfix to sit in front of the two exchange servers. Postfix will accept mail for both domains and relay to the appropriate server. I have postfix installed with only defaults at this point.

Ubuntu Servers :: Postfix Relay - Exchange Sends The Mail Instead Giving Recipient Mail A Valid Reverse DNS Lookup

Jan 12, 2011

The scenario: We have an external server that runs HTTP/DB servers for out shop system. Then, there's our local, in-house infrastructure that runs a.. yeah... Exchange 2010. The shop system on the external server needs to send mails to customers (order confirmations, invoices, etc.). seing as sending them directly through the local MTA (Postfix) would cause mail delivery problems because of reverse DNS issues, i've set the Postfix MTA to act as a satellite to our in-house Exchange Server, so the Exchange sends the mail instead, giving recipient mail servers a valid reverse DNS lookup.

Now, mails sent by the (proprietary, uneditable) shop system are relayed correctly and sent to the target e-mail address. My problem is: Mails not sent by the shop system, but by our own PHP scripts which run on that same external servers, are NOT relayed properly. So the Exchange is fine with the mails sent by the shop system, but not the mails sent by our scripts. This is what i get in the mail.log: The successfully relayed mail sent by the shop system:

Server :: Can't Get Postfix Mail Boxes From /var/mail To ~/Maildir?

May 31, 2010

I'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.

Ubuntu :: Thunderbird Will Not Delete IMAP Mail?

Feb 24, 2010

I have 5 mailboxes provided by my ISP, which I have been using since 2005 with IMAP.1 month ago my Thunderbird client under both 9.04 (desktop) and 9.10 (laptop) started refusing to delete any incoming mail in one of my mailboxes (but not in the other 4).

Error message: "(...) Mail server responded: System I/O Error" 1 week ago, same problem for another mailbox (but not for the other 3), again affecting both machines. Evolution does delete incoming mail on these 2 mailboxes, no issues at all. Have googled, found only one solution (imap folder corrupt), but nothing makes sense.

Server :: Delivering POP Mail To An IMAP Store?

Sep 3, 2010

I've set up an postfix+courier imap+mysql server.is it possible to 'move' mailfiles over to the imap store? I have another mail address at my isp provider. And I would like to get rid of my pop mail storing mails locally in my mail client (which is windows; ms outlook). My ISP doesn't support imap, and I would like to store all my mail on one server, which is located in a good server envirmonment. Plus it's nice to have access to all mail from a web interface when it's vacation/travel time. I was thinking something like having a pop client cheking for mail every couple of minutes on the server, some suedo code follows:

Crontab on local server:
0,5,10,15,20..55 * * * * /usr/sbin/checkmail
2,7,12,17,22..57 * * * * /usr/sbin/mv_mail

checkmail:

Checks and downloads popmail from external server

mv_mail:

moves mail from e.x /var/spool/mail/pop/user/cur/* to /var/spool/mail/imap/user/cur/*

Will this kind of setup be possible? is Maildir style popmail compatible with Maildir style imap?

Software :: CyrusIMAP: Move Mailbox Subfolders To Another Mailbox, Serverside?

May 26, 2011

(We are running CyrusIMAP v2.3.16 on Slackware 13.1)The Problem:A user deleted a HUGE public Folder (>10000 Messages, >250 Subfolders), and now the Folder is in his "Trash" folder.Besides the obvious "Why did he have the access rights to do so in the first place??" question, I am honestly at a loss as to how the user did it:Trying to copy it back using Thunderbird failed utterly, TB crashes, or copies only a part, or nothing at all... (Tried 3.x on Windows and Linux Clients)So now I'm searching for a way to copy the folder back serverside.But web and manpages seem to offer few help:I don't want to move the folder to another partition, nor do I want to reconstruct or restore any corrupted data...All I want is to copy the folder from "user/USERNAME/Trash/HERE" back to "shared/archive/HERE".

Server :: Postfix SASL Authentication (UNIX Accounts)?

Nov 12, 2010

I'm using postfix with unix accounts for a while now and I just realized today that SASL authentication, instead of working only with the USERNAME, it also works if the username is followed by ANYDOMAIN.COM

So, let's say I have the following UNIX users: tim, mike, john. If I set the Outgoing Username:[URL]..(where whatever.com can be any name you can think of) IT WORKS, even though it shouldn't, it should only work with tim, mike and john without any domain name. Does anyone know what might cause this and what's the workaround to this problem?

Ubuntu :: Evolution Mail Can't Connect To Gmail IMAP

Jan 9, 2010

I'm on a fresh Ubuntu 9.10 x86_64 install and I'm trying to configure Evolution to grab my email from Gmail using IMAP.

For receiving mail my server is set to imap.gmail.com:993 and my user name is ___@gmail.com

I'm using SSL and the authentication type is "Password"

If I click the "Check for supported types button, the "Please wait. Querying server for a list of supported authentication mechanisms." window pops up, but it never finishes.

When I try to sync my mail, evolution doesn't ask for my password, and the send and receive mail window displays my account as "Scanning folders in "IMAP server imap.gmail.com" indefinitely.

Running Evolution from the terminal doesn't seem to print any IMAP related errors only

Code:
** (evolution:5565): CRITICAL **: atk_object_set_name: assertion `name != NULL' failed

POP works fine, but that isn't really an option.
