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:

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.
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'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?

I view my /var/log/maillog and see tons of lines like this code...
I think those are some kind of SMTP attacks from this host by I tried to block hit with Iptables but it seemes to peace them off and they keep coming...!
please some kind of postfix-configuration solution?
So, I have mail server ( posfix ) and ldap server, they works fine. I can add/delete users from posfix, and they can send / receive mails to/from any address. At same time my ldap server works fine, I have also users in it, my "simple" question would be...if I have user "test1" in ldap, what I have to do to connect--enable that user to send mails ?
I have configured dns, postfix, dovecot, https, squirrel mail on fedora11 everything working very well. While configuring out look the same domain users getting mails the virtual users not receiving mails it showing pop3 error. But he can able to receive mails in his home directory.
I have an issue in my organisation that a particular user X's mail not able to forward from my linux server MTA postfix to my second windows exchange (HUB)mail server. We use linux mail server as SMTP Gateway we have implemented fetchmail for doing this job. and its MTA is postfix OS is SUSE. Rest users mail are able to come in exchange HUB server via linux mail server. When I see that purticular user X mail in linux I am able see its spool file in /var/spool/mail and also via mail or mutt command. My question is why postix not able to forward that user X mail to our exchange HUB server.
can i just copy/backup postfix mail queues in /var/spool/postfix and paste that folder back in after i done migrating all users and mails to a new mailserver?
I've got a Fedora postfix server that I just upgraded from 9 to 10 using preupgrade. Starting yesterday, some messages were rejected by servers because the IP address had a poor "reputation". The odd thing is, the IP address they're registering isn't the IP address the server is sending from.
When I look at the full headers of our outgoing e-mail, the e-mail is listed as coming from ***.***.***.11, which is the correct address. But these services are somehow tying the e-mails back to ***.***.***.12, which is used for a different purpose entirely. Since this *.12 address doesn't match the MX record, I'm assuming that's why the mails are being blocked, but I'm not sure how the mails are being identified as coming from that address in the first place. It's odd that this just started when I upgraded.
am using qmail and have webmin, all is running smoothly, but i have users spamming other staff accounts.The question: How do I block a user from sending out mails but still able to receive mails. Just denying access to sending mails?if anyone can guide me to do it via terminal as well as webmin.Why webmin you ask, because I have tried it once it works but sadly it block both incoming and outgoing mails.
As a beginner I installed Fedora 11 yesterday. Everything went well until I installed Evolution and Thunderbird. Incoming mails went well, but outgoing mails not.
make install then i got this error: postfix: fatal: chdir(/usr/libexec/postfix): No such file or directory make: *** [install] Error 1 I don't understand why it's checking the usr/libexec folder for the daemons although I've set the folder to /opt/product/postfix-2.6.5/libexec in the makefile. Here is also the cat of my makedefs.out:
is there any HOWTO for configuring Webmin Postfix server with multiple postfix virtual hosts? Seems to be a tough challenge to set it up without any easy manual..
I have just set up shorewall on my router running Arch Linux. The external network is on eth0 and the internal network on eth1.I have set it up for masquerading and that works fine and I can open ports to the firewall. But I'm having trouble with port forwarding to my internal machines.The problem I have is that when port 22350 is forwarded to 192.168.1.3 on my local network, checking the port with nmap from a remote computer gives me:
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
I recently moved over user from an old box running postfix(v 2.0.16) over to rhel 6 running postfix (v mail_version = 2.6.6). ive tried to make sure all the files are of correct permissions and that the main.cf file is configured corectly. However there is something wrong as when i run postfix: service postfix server i get no error but when checking the status:service postfix status i get: master dead but pid file exists Looking into /var/log/mailog i find this line being the issue:
I was trying to write a graph plotting program with c++. I need to convert the infix expression from user to postfix expression for quick evaluation. However, the evaluation of postfix is kind of interpreted, and thus kind of slow for evaluating huge number of values. Say if I plot an implicit function the penalty is quite huge. Is there a way that I can compile the infix expression from my running graph plotting application for high speed evaluation.
I have isntalled a server with Centos 5.2 OS, now I would like to switch from the default sendmail to postfix doing a yum install postfix I've noticed there is already available an rpm version for the OS but I would like to compile my own 2.5 version, I've noticed compiling from source does not allow me to use the mail switcher to tell to the system I'm gonna use Postfix instead of Sendmail as the default MTA while this is possible when I use the "official" rpm version of the package. Now my question is this, would this be a problem? There is some specific procedure/best practice I should follow? Or once compiled and configured Postfix I can safely disable/uninstall sendmail?
I installed postfix + SASL on my ubuntu box, getting emails works 100%.Sending out emails does not work. i'm getting "554 5.7.1 - Relay access denied".
