[03:13:35] *** xpoint has quit IRC
[03:14:11] <jetole> I have a question, probably more of a microsoft hotmail problem then a postfix one but I will ask, I have postfix running on a rhel 4 box atm and it's configured to relay mail everywhere for trusted users, it has tested well for recipients @ google, yahoo, and my own comcast but I cannot seem to send mail to hotmail at the moment, does anyone know anything about this? why it may be happening or where I might look, and I have also do
[03:14:11] <jetole> ne a fair share of RTFM'ing and going over the config file before I asked ;)

[03:24:23] <sigmounte> can i use postfix to add signature to all my outgoing mails ?
[03:24:58] *** xpoint has quit IRC
[03:25:07] <Motoko-chan> Not directly, but yes.
[03:25:36] <sigmounte> Motoko-chan, thanks for answer , and with what can i do this ?
[03:26:45] <Motoko-chan> Use altermime.
[03:27:11] <sigmounte> this is the most easy and unstressfull for postfix i suppose ?

[03:27:24] <Motoko-chan> There is a script on that page.
[03:27:30] <sigmounte> thanks
[03:34:32] <sigmounte> i altermime not too heavy to use with postfix ?
[03:37:01] <Motoko-chan> I don't know, I don't use it.
[03:37:55] *** higuita has joined #postfix
[03:50:17] *** stony has quit IRC
[03:51:45] <jetole> Motoko-chan, I am sorry but someone in another room helped me, or has started to
[03:52:53] <jetole> hotmail is accepting it, and from the packet dump I just said they are saying sender ok, the postfix log seems to be fair, but the hotmail user is not getting the mail, now I just wrote a MX record for this domain so that in the event that hotmail is sending back info I will get a chance to see what they are saying
[03:53:05] <jetole> http://rafb.net/p/ceBvax38.html  <<-- is the latter part of the packet dump
[03:53:23] <Motoko-chan> Hotmail has a habit of losing mail.
[03:53:50] <Motoko-chan> Even from properly set up systems.
[03:58:47] *** caravena has quit IRC
[04:04:16] <rob0> A packet dump wouldn't tell you anything that the postfix/smtp doesn't. Hotmail accepts it and discards, or if the recipient is lucky, puts it in a spam quarantine.
[04:04:52] <Motoko-chan> AOL is more reliable than Hotmail with mail delivery.
[04:05:34] <rob0> AOL is really one of the best postmasters in the business.
[04:06:34] <Motoko-chan> Nah.
[04:06:37] <Motoko-chan> My company is.
[04:06:49] <Motoko-chan> But by volume, AOL probably is.
[04:06:54] <Motoko-chan> Google might be soon.
[04:07:17] <rob0> I was going to add, "Present company excepted," but that always sounds so insincere.
[04:07:19] <rob0> :)
[04:07:25] <Motoko-chan> haha
[04:08:07] <rob0> No, IMO gmail sucks. Their abuse handling is as bad as any, and they're often listed in Spamcop.
[04:10:22] <Motoko-chan> Like AOL
[04:10:36] <Motoko-chan> AOL's "feedback loop" is a good idea...
[04:10:51] <Motoko-chan> Along with their random blocking of whole blocks of IPs
[04:19:31] *** doomas_ has joined #postfix
[04:32:45] <jetole> Motoko-chan, I have tried a dozen times and it still loses it, I am waiting for this damn MX record to show up on my DNS though so I can see if microsoft is responding

[07:23:11] <lkthomas> does anyone got a successful config which could send email to hotmail without throwing into junk box ?
[07:23:18] <lkthomas> a lot of our user is using hotmail
[07:23:47] <lkthomas> and all of the email that we sent is in their junk mail box
[07:25:28] <Motoko-chan> Nothing can fix their spam filters.
[07:25:35] <Motoko-chan> Have the user whitelist you.
[07:26:57] <lkthomas> I know
[07:27:12] <lkthomas> that's why I am asking anyone who did the process to make it working ?
[07:27:13] <sep> lkthomas, hotmais uses senderid in it's filters. so having a SPF record give you a higer chance atleast

[08:11:09] <sep> that's why i said read the logs, since i can't assume that you log to mail.log.

[11:49:11] <sysmonk> domainkeys and dkim, and stuff like that
[11:49:30] <sysmonk> and hotmail puts that mail in junk folder when i send it from webmail or thunderbird

[12:15:48] <sysmonk> lkthomas: it's good that hotmail even get's your mail to junk folder
[12:15:55] <sysmonk> it often doesn't even get into the junk folder

[12:16:14] <sysmonk> lkthomas: it's not about the outlook
[12:16:15] <lkthomas> hotmail eat those mail

[12:17:39] <f3ew> lkthomas, we send them lots of mail
[12:17:40] <sysmonk> oh, maybe the other server works fine, because it has about 100 outlook users behind it

[12:19:41] <f3ew> lkthomas, not that I know
[12:19:57] <lkthomas> so is it depends on amount or what
[12:21:09] <sysmonk> yeah, i have a server wich is the main outgoing SMTP server for few thousands domains, and hotmail accepts the emails from it too

[13:18:35] <k1ckn1ck> just a question u wud be able to answer, i use dir to view files and folders within debian is there somethign that would show folders and files so u can actually see a difference, i think i used to use something called ls
[13:18:40] <jMCg> I don't quite see why the compile would fail [I took a swift look at the .c file and the functionality according the the comments doesn't quite explain the error .. ]

[14:12:33] <stellina> I'm using postfix with mailscanner. I saw today that my hold queue increased to 20k mails when normally has few mails
[14:13:09] <stellina> I searched my mailscanner and postfix logs but I couln't find what happened and this queue increased.
[14:13:33] <stellina> can you recommend me another way to troubleshoot this?
[14:16:15] <jduggan_> hey all, anyone know how to escalate filtered messages from messagelabs? It appears we're on a blacklist with them, they filter messages to domains they host with a 553, their site says check any rbl lists etc, which we're not blacklisted on

[15:04:21] <pebblestone> "fatal: parameter "smtpd_recipient_restrictions": specify at least one working instance of: check_relay_domains, reject_unauth_destination, reject, defer or defer_if_permit"     hmmm, which one is less restrictive?
[15:09:47] *** rstory has joined #postfix
[15:10:26] <rstory> hi.. anyone know how to handle a wildcard mx for a virtual domain? '.example.com' doesn't seem to work for virtual_mailbox_domains. (Q 4.5 from http://www.postfix-jp.info/origdocs/QandA-en.html suggests that format for $mydestination and virtual maps.)
[15:10:39] <rstory> my postconf -n is at http://rafb.net/p/0JoY3e65.html
[15:13:54] <Roobarb> rstory: wildcarding a domain like that is basically inviting spammers to flood your server(s)
[15:16:26] *** frennkie has joined #postfix

[15:23:10] <stellina> postcat: fatal: open 9FD3126E768: No such file or directory
[15:23:24] <stellina> but this id is still in queue
[15:23:41] <dj-fu> heh
[15:23:45] <ma3x> heeeeelp
[15:23:45] <dj-fu> go to the directory it's in
[15:23:48] <dj-fu> and do postcat
[15:23:51] <ma3x> me?
[15:23:53] *** xpoint has joined #postfix
[15:23:59] <dj-fu> postcat just formats a file, it doesn't automagically read it out of the queue and then format it
[15:23:59] *** pebblestone has left #postfix
[15:24:09] <stellina> dj-fu: thanx! it worked
[15:24:12] <dj-fu> so you'll have to cd over to /var/spool/postfix/deferred/ or whatever.
[15:24:27] <stellina> I found it it was in the /var/spool/maildrop
[15:24:33] <dj-fu> ;]
[15:24:44] <stellina> postcat doesn't search in all the queues?
[15:24:45] *** Heimdall has quit IRC
[15:25:13] <dj-fu> no

[15:28:15] <dj-fu> oh there ya go
[15:28:16] <nightswim> postsuper
[15:28:21] <dj-fu> didn't think you could make it read from the queue f3ew, ta
[15:28:45] <ma3x> postsuper didnt remove them
[15:28:55] <f3ew> postsuper -d <id>
[15:28:58] <f3ew> postsuper -d ALL
[15:29:29] <ma3x> yeah
[15:29:30] <ma3x> ogod
[15:29:44] <ma3x> postfix's the best
[15:29:47] <ma3x> exim sucks!!!!!
[15:30:50] <jduggan_> f3ew: do they generally filter on IP or sending domain?
[15:30:57] <jduggan_> they being messagelabs
[15:31:09] <f3ew> 553 is user customised
[15:31:13] <jduggan_> i mean on a per-domain basis
[15:31:26] <f3ew> both
[15:31:43] *** ma3x has quit IRC
[15:31:56] <jduggan_> ok so it's likely now that we're blacklisted for every domain whos MX points to messagelabs?
[15:34:17] <f3ew> jduggan, depends
[15:34:22] *** absum has joined #postfix
[15:34:32] <f3ew> it can also be per recipient domain customisation
[15:35:29] <stellina> I want to have a domain alias for a domain located in my ldap. My ldap doesn't give me such an attribute. Can I do this from aliases file somehow?
[15:40:26] <lunaphyte_> what do you mean by "domain alias"?  you can use whichever attribute you want, as long as your ldap query is properly constructed.
[15:41:27] <stellina> for example I have the domain test.com. I would like all the users under test.com to be able to receive mail also as user at mail dot test.com

[15:45:31] <knoba> dj-fu: 'mydomain' : a configuration parameter in the main.cf: The internet domain name of this mail system. The default is to use $myhostname minus the first component. $mydomain is used as a default value for many other configuration parameters.
[15:46:06] <dj-fu> you can quite easily configure postfix to receive mail for mail.test.com
[15:47:22] <stellina> dj-fu: it already receive mail for test.com. How ca I tell postfix that user at mail dot test.com goes to user at test dot com and so on?
[15:50:10] <dj-fu> !virtual_alias_maps
[15:50:11] <knoba> dj-fu: 'virtual_alias_maps' : a configuration parameter in the main.cf: Optional lookup tables that alias specific mail addresses or domains to other local or remote address. The table format and lookups are documented in virtual(5).
[15:50:48] <dj-fu> Is probably the best way, although I'm sure there are easier (set mydomain to mail.test.com, test.com)
[15:50:51] *** frennkie has joined #postfix
[15:50:56] <dj-fu> not the best way to go about doing it, though
[15:51:06] <stellina> well I have virtual domains

[16:49:51] <[miles]> nullboy: mmm
[16:50:10] <[miles]> nullboy: well, if you have a domain of your own, first thing to ensure you understand is DNS
[16:50:20] <nullboy> [miles]: i'm good on DNS
[16:50:31] <[miles]> nullboy: get your MX registers to your mail server... and read the postfix manual
[16:50:42] <[miles]> nullboy: it all depends how far you want to push it ...
[16:51:00] <nullboy> [miles]: i really just want to be the mail server for my domain name
[16:51:11] <[miles]> nullboy: like, do you want to just recieve mail.. you want to send also, authentificate, have SSL/TLS, imap anti-spam...
[16:51:47] <[miles]> nullboy: yeah, but you need to decided what components your "mail server" will consist of

[16:53:18] <[miles]> nullboy: well. depends if you are going to loose mail if you immediatly change the MX
[16:53:25] <nullboy> [miles]: nope
[16:53:26] <[miles]> nullboy: if it's just a test domain, then yeah
[16:53:35] <nullboy> [miles]: yeah, pure test domain for learning

[18:51:22] <seekwill> djs_2_6: Yeah, Gmail sent me the same thing in my testing. You don't think it's abuse, but their server does.
[18:51:38] <djs_2_6> pebblestone, go more verbose for emails to/from domain hotmail.com...
[18:51:51] <pebblestone> the status returned by hotmail was "status=sent (250 Queued mail for delivery)"
[18:52:17] <pebblestone> djs_2_6: how to turn on verbose mode?

[18:53:20] <pebblestone> thanks
[18:53:24] <djs_2_6> np
[18:53:37] <seekwill> Well, if Hotmail gave you a 250, then it's not your problem...
[18:54:01] <djs_2_6> Sounds like it is getting eaten by their queue...

[20:35:59] <Fr0zen_> does postfix use the main.cf.default ?
[20:36:15] <Fr0zen_> i don't have a message_size_limit in my main.cf, but it's in main.cf.default. Would it juse use the .default?
[20:46:15] <ashd> Fr0zen_: i think that the stuff in .default is just the default settings - if you want to change defaults - add the statement to your .cf and reload
[20:52:39] <Fr0zen_> so the defaults do get followed?
[20:52:45] <Fr0zen_> if their not defined in main.cf
[20:52:46] <Fr0zen_> ?
[21:07:43] <Signum> correct
[21:07:55] <Signum> You can also check the defaults with "postconf -d"

[21:27:27] <Fr0zen_> ah k
[21:27:35] <Fr0zen_> im having an issue with postfix and amavisd
[21:27:39] <Fr0zen_> postfix isn't rejecting emails over it's limit
[21:27:43] <Fr0zen_> over it's max email size limit
[21:27:50] <Fr0zen_> it's set in the default's
[21:27:54] <xpoint> diff -u main.cf.defaults main.cf.myconf > main.cf.diff
[21:28:11] <xpoint> now read the main.cf.diff :)))
[21:28:47] *** rmayorga has quit IRC
[21:30:06] <xpoint> Fr0zen_, a good tip is to print main.cf.defaults in A1 paper size and understand why i need ever to change one single ting about it
[21:30:42] <xpoint> Fr0zen_, the less changed the better it works
[21:31:24] <Fr0zen_> i havnt changd anything in it
[21:31:32] <Fr0zen_> im using 100% defaults
[21:31:33] <xpoint> :-)
[21:31:38] <Fr0zen_> postfix is accepting 50mb emails
[21:31:39] <Fr0zen_> which is wrong
[21:32:18] <xpoint> Fr0zen_, which distro is it ?
[21:32:19] *** darkphader has quit IRC
[21:32:40] <Fr0zen_> freebsd
[21:32:41] <Fr0zen_> 6.1
[21:33:00] <xpoint> Fr0zen_, you are saying defaults will accept 50M mailsize ?
[21:33:14] <Fr0zen_> yep
[21:33:21] <Fr0zen_> the default is set to stop at 10.x something mb
[21:33:26] <Fr0zen_> but it's accepting 25-30mb emails

[21:39:51] <xpoint> okay postfix accept here a mail under 10M, and your amavis complain of missing 3M unpack path to work on it
[21:40:23] <xpoint> amavis user is limited in your setup
[21:40:23] <Fr0zen_> so amavisd is out of space?

[21:42:44] <blinx> can I change that easy to #MYSQL_CRYPT_PWFIELD
[21:42:47] <blinx> ?
[21:43:23] <Fr0zen_> xpoint what you mean?
[21:44:51] <xpoint> your freebsd unix user is limited to much on how much ram it will have access to, its below 3M for this user, and this is either amavisd.conf or in freebsd limit for amavis this is in
[21:46:04] <Fr0zen_> how do you know it's 3m
[21:46:10] <Fr0zen_> it's using up over 500mb
[21:46:22] <Fr0zen_> when it starts scanning IT SHOULDNT EVEN SCAN LARGE ATTACHTMENTS!!
[21:47:17] <xpoint> blinx, yes this is safe, you can have both clear password and crypted in sql at the same time, but you have to select just one of them in courier-authlib
[21:47:59] <blinx> xpoint: ok
[21:48:10] <xpoint> Fr0zen_, check limit in amavisd.conf
[21:49:05] <Fr0zen_> no such limits there xpoint
[21:50:00] <xpoint> the limit is in sql since if i remember you are using maia mailguard ?
[21:50:31] <Fr0zen_> ya
[21:50:40] <Fr0zen_> 10mbit is the limit is the packetsize limit
[21:50:56] <xpoint> disable the sql lookups in amvisd.conf then, just for testing

[22:02:28] <Fr0zen_> what does that value do?
[22:02:49] <Fr0zen_> i dont have it
[22:03:13] <xpoint> it sets a max for how high you accept a lha or zip archive to be when unpacked
[22:03:37] <Fr0zen_> this wasnt a zip attachtment, i dont have that value anyway
[22:03:56] <xpoint> the defaults is 3M, change it :-)
[22:04:17] <xpoint> in my conf its 300M
[22:04:30] <xpoint> big diffrents
[22:04:49] <Fr0zen_> i dont think it has anything to do with my problem
[22:05:05] <Fr0zen_> my problem is with postfix accepting huge attachtments like that, when it's config says not to.
[22:05:12] <xpoint> ask maia why this default so low when postfix accept mails at 10M
[22:05:38] <Fr0zen_> why is postfix accepting 50mb attachtments?
[22:05:41] <Fr0zen_> when it's default is 10
[22:05:46] <xpoint> Fr0zen_, you posted a log where the mail was under 10M
[22:06:18] <Fr0zen_> i have a bunch of others that are 20-50mb
[22:06:45] <xpoint> ok, this is multiparts that combine to over 10M
[22:07:52] <xpoint> i can't remember how amavisd handle multiparts here right now, but this is a problem in generic
[22:09:01] <Fr0zen_> well why doesnt postfix reject large mail, like it's set to?
[22:09:20] <xpoint> postfix can't reject multiparts
[22:10:42] *** Bronsky_ has quit IRC
[22:11:39] <Fr0zen_> ah
[22:11:52] <xpoint> Fr0zen_, if you want to make postfix reject multiparts you have to reject mime in headers
[22:12:03] <madclicker> pickcoder, isn't there a way to do a test to the exchange and see if it bounces ?
[22:12:20] <xpoint> Fr0zen_, its not very praktical to do so
[22:12:23] *** Bronsky has joined #postfix
[22:12:46] <madclicker> xpoint, what about exchange aliases and so forth?
[22:13:39] <xpoint> madclicker, i dont use exchange, but postfix just need to query a ldap server and it can be done
[22:14:23] <xpoint> madclicker, if the exchange server is with very static user base one can make a hash of users on postfix
[22:14:45] <pickcoder> madclicker: ldap is the best route.. either directly using postfix or indirectly using nsswitch with ldap as a user table
