Ubuntu Servers :: Get Email Address Pushing Emails Out To Phone?
Mar 26, 2010
I have a domain hosted with some remote host where I pay $10 a month and they provide me with, among other things, a bunch of email addresses. One of these addresses is my default address I use for everything and is blackberry@mydomain.com. I no longer have a Blackberry, I switched over to a HTC Hero with Google Android so I'm wondering how I could get that email address pushing emails out to my phone. Android supports Exchange but the licenses are too expensive for me. Is there an Ubuntu alternative to make this work somehow?
I want to setup an email client in order to send/receive emails, but since i am experiencing some issues with my ISP, i decided to setup an SMTP server with Postfix on my machine.The problem is that i can receive emails but i can not send.I read almost every thread in here refering to Postfix, but i could not find the problem on my configuration.So here it is..
Code: # See /usr/share/postfix/main.cf.dist for a commented, more complete version # Debian specific: Specifying a file name will cause the first
I have an email server configured with postfix, dovecot, saslauthd and squirrelmail. It works great. In fact I'd even say it works too well: in squirrelmail, I can configure any sender address and my server will accept it. Message will be sent, wether the sender's address is [URL] or [URL]. Is there any way of limiting it in such way that only [URL] is accepted as sender's address?
I am trying to configure virtual alias using regular expression.
For example :
Email send to user.1@example.com and user.2@example.com will deliver to user mailbox.
Email send to user2.1@example.com and user2.2@example.com will deliver to user2 mailbox.
And the numbers or alphabet in between user name and the domain will be vary , I can't just do a normal alias.
I been try to play around with main.cf and the virtual alias table but still not able to get work. So I am not sure is the main.cf didnt configure correctly or the regular expression is not working.
I operate Server v.8.04 with Bind9 configured for my internal sites. I installed DHCP3 the other day and assigned static addresses for certain boxes on my network. However, only those static assigned boxes can view my websites internally. In other words, DHCP appears to block my DNS. Is there a setting that I missed or is there something else?
Is there a way of allowing only certain domain to send e-mails to certain specific e-mail address. I am using Sendmail, and I have an alias which translate to certain members of staff within my organization. I don't expect e-mails from outside our domain to be sent to this alias e-mail address.
i have setup an open vpn server and when i connect to it the client pulls an IP and but not default gateway. My goal is to route all web traffic through the VPN... My config file looks like this...
Code:
dev tun proto tcp port 1194 ca /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys/ca.crt
I have a user who was getting constantly spammed so I deleted their email account but it's still coming in and trying to get delivered, how do drop all email for a specific email address?
Can any one recommend an email software that will let me read my emails on the pc without removing them from there original location in case i want to read them on another pc/work, also i need to be able to bounce spam like you can do in mail on the Mac.
Normally I just use the backup feature in evolution but how would I go about saving my emails if I wanted to import them into another email program?I am going to install Mint 9 KDE on a separate partition and I have found evolution does not play nicely in KDE so was hoping there was a way of importing my evolution mail into Mints KDE email program.
I have sendmail setup and it works fine sending emails to outside email addresses. When I try and send email to our internal groupwise server the mail never gets there and I get an error message in the log user unknown.
The script works fine - it runs every 5 minutes and checks if certain environmental variables are set in place - if they are, it prints an output. If they're not, it dies.
The problem is that when it dies, it still sends me a blank email - one every 5 minutes, every time the cron job runs.
telling it not to send if it's blank?
I'm assuming some type of dirty awk script could do this, but I don't really know my shell well enough to do that.
I'm not good at putting these things into words, so let me write some psuedo code to explain what I mean:
I'm experimenting with with mail-servers now and I'm trying to configure postfix to send emails from one email(pop3 is gmail) to any email outside the local network. Server is Ubuntu 10.10 with the last updates.
I am working for the first time on a dedicated server with CentOS. I have sendmail and postifx installed and I realized all the emails send by the server are redirected to my own private address.
For example if I want to send an email to "luc@test.com", I will receive it in my box (ex "paulin@gmail.com")... I also receive in my box the logwatch which should be send to root@serverblabla.live-servers.net
That is very strange and I really don't understand what does that.
When I am using Mailutils to send messages to myself as a test, I get them but they are from <"ryandward@ryandward"@gmail.com> which is not a valid email address and I have no idea why my system is configured to send them from this address. This is indicative of some problem there is going on in my system.
I have just upgraded to Ubuntu 10.4 and I need to get my Address Book and saved emails from earlier version.Can someone please tell me where they will be located
I have an email setup where all of the emails from our email host is downloaded to our Linux server using Fetchmail. Then some of the incoming emails are sent to an MS exchange server (server1.domain.com) using Postfix. What i want to do is to send a copy of all emails to Another server (server2.domain.com) for redundancy.Can postfix be configured to send copies out to both?
I have recently setup a new mail server and have simulated sending and receiving on the new email server. The new email server will replace the primary one.I would like to setup the new email server in parallel with the existing one.This way i can observe issues that might occur and be aware of what could go wrong. I want to received mail to be delivered to both mail servers at the same time.I would like to use postfix, exim i find a bit to difficult to understand.I have thought of using transport maps, the only problem is that you can only forward mail to one server at a time using transport maps.I think recipient_bcc_maps and sender_bcc_maps could work, i would just like ideas of how i can do this.
I'm going to be setting up a couple of servers for some friends. I'd like them to be able to email me some information after they do some maintenance scripts via cron. I got my own server to send email using a tutorial I found but that involved using my personal gmail account. getting email sending working on ubuntu server with minimal fuss and account credential exposure?
I am working with a script that sends out a mail with an attachment by using the uuencode command along with the mail command. But my problem is when I need to run the script using an email address with a dot in the middle of the address (ie. my.name@mail.com)
I am thinking about buying a domain name and hosting my web server.
I have seen pricing from $8 to $30 a year. Any favorites from fellow ubunters? Also this whole "whois" thing scares me, if I am correct my information I enter when buying the domain is enter into some big pool of information. People can find this information out and dig up important information. url Can I prevent this with private Whois or how do I set it up? This website examples some of my fears with this whole WhoIs thing, url whois/Private-Whois.html Does most/all domain registers come with email or just email forwarding or both? How does that work? At this moment, my only question about Web Hosting is how do I get Website Statistics as in: Stats, web analytics, web traffic stats and more? I will be web hosting through Ubuntu 9.10 gnome.
My Ubuntu One account. I had intended to change my email address, but after entering the second address, I find I cannot delete the original. I have the second one set to my primary, but I can still log in with either. I'd like to be able to permanently delete the first.
I have a Dropbox account and trying to sign-up to Ubuntu One. The Ubuntu One sign-up does not like my email address for some reason(?). It is that my email address is already in use on the server?
I just discovered View > "All message headers" in the Evolution email client and am quite concerned that all my out going emails contain my personal IP Address. I know that this is standard email protocol but i'm wondering if it is possible to hide or modify this header information? Or would i be better off using a webmail client?
tried to sign up but it felt like a badly coded .asp page, wouldn't accept my email address? Same address hand typed both boxes? tried it quite a few times, very unubuntu. still explanation marks next to each email address?
