Ubuntu :: Postfix Emails Send Outgoing Mail With Wrong Domain Name?
Jan 29, 2010
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. I am running ubuntu 9.10.# See /usr/share/postfix/main.cf.dist for a commented, more complete version# Debian specific: Specifying a file name will cause the first# line of that file to be used as the name. The Debian default

Im trying to get postfix to filter my outgoing mail and basically drop everything that is not in my hash table.
So far I managed to get this going
Code:
Code:
Unfortunately those rules also apply to incoming messages. My goal is to disallow users on my host to change their "MAIL FROM" to anything they like and restrict them to domains I specify. I'm aware that the local part still is variable and a user of domain "foo.com" could use a email of domain "bar.com", but still some of my troubles would be solved if I get this running.

I 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'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.

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!
# See /usr/share/postfix/main.cf.dist for a commented, more complete version

I have installed a sendmail server on fedora 10
I try to configure my sendmail server as a mail server to send outgoing email using port 587( because port 25 is blocked). after finishing configuring my sendmail server, i checked out my sendmail server using telnet localhost 587, and it worked fine as below code...
I have tried two different ways for user name: name, or name@mail.mydomian.com, but not working at all, the two results are the same.
PS: I have test port 587 and can use port 587 and Kmail to send outgoing mail using other external relay server
is my wrong configuration for sendmail server or kmail?

I'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

Has 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.. )

As a part of migration I am proposing different scenarios to my organization. One which is asked to prepare is to configure multiple mail servers to handle incoming and outgoing mails. Say I have -[URL], I need to have accept mails from [URL] and send mail from [URL].

I have a problem with my VPS not being able to send any emails to Yahoo! addresses. Each time someone with a mail account tries to send something to a Yahoo! address, the email stays stuck in the mail queue and a 'delayed mail (still trying)' message is sent back to the user. I understand that Yahoo! has a tendency to block mail servers on a whim, but what I'd like to know is, how can I prevent Postfix from specifically retrying to send emails to Yahoo! mail servers? I don't want to stop retries to other mail servers.

After a reboot of my VPS, I keep getting the following error when sending email to my domain (hosted on Google Email). I can send to other email addresses but my own. So it seems like postfix thinks all mydomain.co.nz is to be sent internally?
Sep 9 09:25:05 mydomain postfix/pickup[20784]: 0316C3CC68: uid=1000 from=<sidb>
Sep 9 09:25:05 mydomain postfix/cleanup[20806]: 0316C3CC68: message-id=<20100908212505.0316C3CC68@mydomain.co.nz>
Sep 9 09:25:05 mydomain postfix/qmgr[20783]: 0316C3CC68: from=<sidb@mydomain.co.nz>, size=326, nrcpt=1 (queue active)[code].....
How do I tell postfix that mydomain.co.nz is to be sent to Google email server?

i have running sendmail 8.13 on my red hat enterprise linux 5.1, but i have a problem. I can send a mail from my line command terminal to hotmail, gmail, yahoo and any of these, but i can't send mail to my own domain ([URL]), when i wrote a mail i get a reply from MAILER-DAEMON@localhost.localdomain that says that the message had pemanent fatal errors and shows as user unknown the mail was suposed to recive the message.
For example, if i send one mail from user1@mydomain.com to user2@mydomain.com the user2 does not recive any mail, but that doens not happens if user1 sends a mail to any hotmail address or gmail or any other. Besides i also can't recive on my server any mail to user1@mydomain.com or user2@mydomain.com (for example), so please tell me what do i do to get the mail.

I have spent the last 24 hours searching the internet for an issue to resolve my problem. I have tried the verious solutions posted by people and followed endless amounts of tutorials
In the end i followed [URL] line by line
This allowed me to recieve email fine, but only send email locally.
I either get a "Relay access denied" message, or as of last night is is now "Recipient Address Rejected"
