I'm trying to use different MTA servers (one for each domain) on the same public IP and port (25). Here I attach a graphic of my idea, to have a Postfix server that receives all incoming mail from internet, and relays to different local servers. esquema_mta-dns.jpg How can be configured the "Relayer MTA" ?

I've search high and low.. does anyone know how to configure Postfix/Dovecot to use another SMTP server (i.e. smtp.comcast.net) as my ISP blocks port 25?

I am new to the Ubuntu Community and just starting to build my Ubuntu 10.04 Server. I am a novice in Ubuntu, though maybe not a full n00b any more
I travel around a lot with my laptop, (also Ubuntu 10.04). However, my ISP does not allow me to send email via their SMTP when I am not in their IP range.
Since I have this little server I am building, I thought it would be nice if I could have my own SMTP relay. The objectives would be simple:
- I do not need a mailbox or POP server (yet).
- I wish to send email from any place in the world. I can not use a filter on IP ranges or local networks only.
- If my server could do this, I just configure Evolution on my laptop to send mail to my home IP address, using some sort of authentication and/or security/encryption (whichever is easy to implement).
- My server then just forwards my mail to my ISP. Since the server is inside the IP range, it can be handled as usual.
I have been digging through several howto's and the ubuntu server guide, searching some forums etc. Even while I don't fully grasp the things explained, I can't get the idea that one of those is "Just what I need".
Even still, if there is some other service outside my own that can do this (a public SMTP relay maybe?) I would also be happy to consider as long as it is safe and does not "eavesdrop" on my messages.
I have setup my own home server . All the applications are working perfectly except one I can't send Emails. I check weda my smtp has any errors not welll I got this

I've tried googling this, and am having trouble finding something that doesn't end up being dizzying or confusing.
I was wondering if anybody could provide me with a concise, conclusive answer/guide.
I have a set of servers which require redundant SMTP relay. The first two of their SMTP relays are their own SMTP servers, and as such, are not dependable in the event that their network/servers go down. Their monitoring software runs on their machines as well, and uses the SMTP servers they themselves host.
I need to set up an external SMTP relay box that they can use to relay their monitoring alerts/admin notices in the case that their mailservers go down.
I have a company exchange server with pop/imap support @ my disposal but, unfortunately, that box runs Windows and does not permit any changes to services or additional software to add for the purposes of relaying clients.
So now, I need to create a dedicated linux box that can act as a relay to send email coming from the monitoring/admin/alert software in case their first two smtp servers have gone down.
I'm running ASSP on Ubuntu 10.04.1 it's mostly working fine. I have one problem which has been bugging me for some time. I don't want to filter outbound mail, but if I can relay (proxy) my outbound mail through ASSP, then it can automatically add to the whitelist.
As ASSP is a proxy, I need a server to send it to once ASSP receives it. I've tried my ISP, but this failed and they weren't willing to confirm if a connection attempt was received at their end.
Current setup
Inbound
mx -> router -> ASSP -> Exchange 2003
Outbound
Exchange 2003 -> mx
I'd like to setup outbound as either
Exchange 2003 -> ASSP -> <ISP> SMTP relay
Exchange 2003 -> ASSP -> <relay running on Ubuntu eg postfix>
Can anyone help me with troubleshooting steps or a better suggestion for how I can set this up. I'd love to know why my ISP setup didn't work, but I don't know a tool for monitoring IP traffic in Ubuntu SE, in windows I use Wireshark is there any equivalent I can setup for Ubuntu or a tool I can use in windows which will show all traffic, Ubuntu and windows server are on the same netgear switch, not sure it's smart enough to copy all traffic to another port for monitoring.
Is the term a 'simple SMTP relay' a contradiction in terms?!I have an elderly Dell server on which I have just made a fresh install of 10.04 LTS server. I had 8.04 running on it for a long time, but I haven't tried an SMTP server before. It is a headless server with CLI (no GUI) and the latest version of Webmin installed.I have a basic LAMP server installed for a few websites using PHPbb and Joomla, and also I run a Mediatomb server for our household. When I installed I also chose to install mail services, but these remain masked behind NAT at the moment
I now want to set up an SMTP relay server so when I am working away and using different wifi points or my notoriously unreliable 3G dongle I can always send emails through the home server (from my iPhone and my laptop) rather than having to look up the SMTP server for each ISP of the place where I am working.
What I want is an authenticated server which takes my email and redirects it to my home ISP's SMTP server. I need only 3 authenticated users to have access (myself, my wife and my son). I don't need (or want) any incoming mail services at all.
Useful modules installed are: Dovecot, Postfix, Procmail mail filter, PAM - but how do I set them up?
Is there any simple setup that I could do, preferably through Webmin, but I can handle CLI if necessary?
I have looked at the Ubuntu help pages, but it looks so complicated to set up something that seems like it should be so simple to me.
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'm trying to setup postfix (or exim, I don't mind which), so I can move away my last remaining PC from Windows.I've tinkered with Postfix for good part of a month and I can get it to accept emails using SMTP and post them to a virtual mailbox based on MySQL tables. And it rejects mail addressed to local email addresses that it can't find in the table.
First question (or problem.) I've set up Postfix to relay email it cannot deliver locally such as is the case when you send out an email. My remote host requires authentication. How can I set this up?
Second question: I want to force my clients to use either AUTH, TLS or SSL, and not allow anonymous connections (to prevent an open relay server.) How do I set that up without interfering with the smarthost setting? The smarthost login is not one of my clients, it's a pre-determined login and password that is solely used for the email relaying aspect.
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 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 installed the citadel suite on ubuntu server 9.10 Email obviously works fine internally. I tried to setup a smart host to send my mail through as my isp(Verizon) obviously blocks port 25. I tried to send out the Verizon smtp server on port 587. In the Administration> Domain names and Internet mail configuration>Smarthosts.My smarthost entry on the citadel configureation page above was usernameassword@outgoing.verizon.net:587 but after sending an outgoing email, it comes back with a "invalid/host-not-in-DNS return address not allowed"
I have also tried using gmail and a hotmail account with the respective smtp address's in but they come back with "Must issue a STARTTLS command first".I have researched both messages and come up with squat that has helped me.
I know that my mail will have to go out through a smarthost of somekind. So is am I on the right track with choosing verizon/gmail/or something else as my smtp relay, or is there a free service out there that I can send email through(haven't found one if there is)
Anyone else ever setup Citadel and got around their isp blocking port 25?I am also not sold on citadel, it was just the first/ nicest looking one that I found.

View 4 Replies View Relatedconfiguring my postfix server to send mail over smtps port 465. My ISP (as is the case with many ISPs), is blocking outbound SMTP, so I need to configure postfix to relay my mail out through my ISPs SMTP servers.
I was able to get it to work with gmail, which uses port 587, by using SASL: [URL] but that configuration is less than ideal as gmail drops the "reply to" address so when people receive my email, it looks like it's from gmail instead of from my server.
If I use my ISP SMTP servers as a relay the "reply to" address is not stripped, but the relay uses ssl over port 465 instead of TLS. According to the SASL readme:
Quote:
Postfix does not deliver mail via TCP port 465 (the obsolete "wrappermode" protocol). See TLS_README for a solution that uses the "stunnel" command.
I've looked at the TLS_README and can't figure out what I need to do. how to configure this?

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:
