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)

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
[code]....
Here is what i do: make clean make makefiles CCARGS='-DEF_CONFIG_DIR="/opt/product/postfix-2.6.5/etc"
-DEF_COMMAND_DIR="/opt/product/postfix-2.6.5"
-DEF_DAEMON_DIR="/opt/product/postfix-2.6.5/libexec"
-DEF_MAILQ_PATH="/opt/product/postfix-2.6.5/bin/mailq"
-DEF_DATA_DIR="/opt/product/postfix-2.6.5/lib"
-DEF_NEWALIAS_DIR="/opt/product/postfix-2.6.5/bin/newaliases"
[Code]...
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:

I have been trying to increase the message_size_limit on my Debian 2.4.26 box with postfix 2.3.8. For example, I set message_size_limit and mailbox_size_limit to 104857600 (100m) and restart postfix. Running postconf -n confirms that it has changed. However when I send a test message it kicks it back saying the message size limit is 16777216 (16m, which is, incidentally, the default value of the berkeley_db_create_buffer_size parameter)
View 10 Replies View RelatedI would like to ask whether there is a way to postpone or delay message processing on postfix mail server. E.g. to postpone message transfer/relay for 5 minutes to be able to dequeue mis-targeted emails.I couldn't find anything because these keywords mislead to performance problems.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have postfix installed for a while now. It seems as though my server is sending out spam to other people which is really bad...I got emails like this one:
Code:
Delivered-To: email@provider.com

In transparent gateway mode can postfix forward single message to two different destinations with the help of transport file?

I have had that installed for some time and it works well (apart from geotagging which seems to be only partially developed) but the Digikam website has released 1.9 (stable) and 2.0 (quite advanced beta).
If anybody has successfully packaged any later versions for Slackware I would be grateful for information. Otherwise I will start building myself.
I have a mail server taking care of mail for my 4 domains; the first is used for virtually all mail, the second rarely used anymore, the third is virtually 100% spam the past year(?), and the fourth isn't in use (and never has been, so no spam). What I'd like to do is to reject all mail to the third domain. Right now this is what I get (I tried to send to a nonexistent address from gmail):

Since my username (xyz@) is the same for all domains, I could (or so I hope) change the reject message to give a hint to replace [URL] with [URL] and try again.
i have a website, there is a button that u click fill out a form and sends u a link to download a trial version of our software, the message gets sent with out html.. i copied a sample below (edited out some personal info)

I have a postfix server running on a virtual machine hosted by vpslink.com. I have followed the following configuration guide to install the system with dovecot, sasl smtpd authentication, and postfix as an mta: [URL](I know it says it's a debian configuration, but it seemed legitimate that I could follow it). Anyway, in sending email from my primary email account, I have found that roughly 1/2 of the messages are delivered, and 1/2 of them are rejected with a message similar to the following:

I can't seem to reinstall Postfix. I followed a guide and couldn't get it to work. After I retried a few times I gave up and deleted all files and folders I could find related to Postfix. Well I realized what the issue was and now that I want to try reinstalling Postfix it won't allow me.

I am trying to install a mail server (postfix). I followed the instructions (up until SMTP, I do not want that) on ubuntu pages, without any result. I can send mail, but I can't get any.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have been following the guide atand it has all worked perfectly and as expected, except for when it says to run "telnet localhost 25". Instead of getting an ip address displayed as I have seen it is supposed to, it just out puts this."Trying 127.0.0.1...Connected to localhost.localdomain.Escape character is '^]'.Connection closed by foreign host."
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a static IP from local ISP and my computer is configured with 192.168.1.2 (LAN IP).
I have installed ubuntu server 9.04 and want to send emails from my server for which I've configured postfix. But I dont know what to do next.
My questions are:
1. Do i need to install DNS server for using postfix? If not, what should I install to send emails from this server?
2. Do I need to forward any particular port in my router?
3. If I dont have a fully qualified domain, what are the configurations I need to do to send emails?
I use Ubuntu Server 9.10 64bit
at first, sendmail was installed and everything was working great. all the email sent from forum and webform I host as been sent correctly in the reception box of the recipient. But I want postfix as MTA to do my delivery to all my virtual domain I host.
when sendmail is uninstalled and postfix installed and all services configured(php included) and restarted(apache included), when I send a email from command line or from web form, the email goes in junk mail for some ISP email address and for gmail and the email did'nt show at all for hotmail. but email sent from forum (phpbb) still goes in reception box like normal email do.
I tried do change the headers, who was working with sendmail, of the email sent from web form without success.
so I tried to uninstall postfix and reinstall sendmail, restarted all service and every thing was back to normal... email sent goes in reception box.
I tried it twice.... sendmail, postfix, sendmail, postfix and now back to sendmail for a working solution until I get postfix working.
I tried with spf entry in my dns, I tried allowed icmp packet from outside with iptables, I tried many different headers for my email. My ip is not blacklisted anywhere.
I have a problem setting up Postfix on my home (behind Router/firewall) Ubuntu driven server, I have been trying for days now with no luck. All I would like to do is use the server to send mail (MTA). So while installing I configured it as a satellite system.
file:
/etc/postfix/main.cf
settings:
myhostname = mail.example.com
mydomain = example.com
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
[code]....
I'm getting a 553 From address not verified. I have tried what it suggested from the URL link, but it still doesn't work.
I've got a server running 9.10, and I'm having a few issues with SMTP. It's got Postfix and Dovecot installed, and eventually I'll add content filtering, but I need to get past this issue first.
I know there's a lot of posts out there for Postfix issues, but I haven'tbeen able to find one specific to my issue.
IMAP and POP3 work fine through SSL, and the server can send mail without any problems. That's all fine and dandy, but I need to utilize an e-mail client (like evolution or outlook). Everytime I set up a user in Evolution, the smtp connection times out, or is refused. I know it's not a firewall issue. Port 25 is open, as well as 465. So I should be able to connect through SSL. I want to be able to connect through SMTP using the same credentials as IMAP.
Here's my main.cf file:
Code:
myhostname = mail.adamwgay.com
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
myorigin = /etc/mailname
[Code].....
everytime I get things rolling, this issue pops up. I don't know if it's something I'm setting up wrong in the client, or if it's a configuration error on my part in postfix.
I'm also having a bit of an issue with my aliases. I've basically got a lot of addresses going to root, then root going to the main user, but it's not actually delivering the mail to the main user. It sends it straight to root.
I installed and configured postfix per the guide on help.ubuntu.com. Everything seems to work fine with smtp and it says that my emails are being sent, but I never receive them.What could be causing this problem?The local mailbox shows that the email was sent.Mail.log shows that the message was delivered to the mailbox.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have installed qmail on my 10.04 server (Because I prefer qmail and dont want to use postfix) and I would like to just install courier IMAP/POP server without the Postfix (Or other mail servers).
Is there an apt-get install switch that will install just what I want to install without deps; or at least a way to block unwanted deps from being installed.
I have just built an internal postfix server for sending mail only, it's not accessible outside our network. I will be sending from our domain, Rewriting the from field to abc.com is turned on in the postfix config. A friend is telling me this will not work as they will do reverse lookups on our domain. What does this mean? Obviously the domain the email is sent from is a valid domain. If they do a lookup from the IP the mail came from it would be global crossing, our internet provider? These outbound emails are critical client reports, I want to make sure they are not seen as spam.

I am setting up an ubuntu server, in order to use it with Joomla.
Does someone knows if is possible to use PostFix as SMTP server for Joomla?
If does; would be necessary to install IMAP or POP3, Webmail etc if I just want to send automatics mails via Joomla.

I currently have a postfix / dovecot server running on one ubuntu server with nullmailer relaying webmail on a different server. This is currently working except the mail server is rejecting incorrect addresses which results in the messages being stuck in the nullmailer queue on the webmail server. Is it possible to force postfix to accept and manage all relayed messages from webmail, or is it possible for the nullmailer to manage the bounced messages correctly?

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)
I have read many tutorials and guides on how to apply authentication to SMTP on postfix and so far had no look making it work, I do have authentication on dovecot on the pop3 and IMAP servers I have been trying to make this work now for on and off 3 months now and am completely stumped I am running my own server with a dynamically IP address but I have a DNS service to give me a fixed domain name which works. as I am on a dynamic IP I can't send email to external accounts as they need to to through a relay host but I cant set that up until there is some form of authentication on the smtp of postfix even if its just plain-text
originality I ran a windows server with hmailserver which was so easy to setup and use
I have postfix, dovecot, sasld installed
below are my postfix main.cf file and I can post my dovecot if needs be
Code:
# 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
# is /etc/mailname.
#myorigin = /etc/mailname

I'm having a problem with a new install of postfix... it won't relay mail to external domains. Internal mail is fine.I'm using virtual_mailbox_domains so that I can have multiple domains, and I've set dovecot to use local files with encrypted passwords.Here's my main.cf
