[04:13:27] <aslan> hello, I changed postfix to listen on port 26 in /etc/postfix/master.cf
[04:14:04] <aslan> our ISP blocks port 25
[04:14:33] <aslan> but now postfix is trying to send to other ISPs on port 26
[04:14:46] *** _bugz_ has joined #postfix
[04:14:51] <aslan> any ideas how to fix this?
[04:15:24] <mwalling> dont
[04:15:27] <mwalling> you're doing it wrong
[04:15:35] <aslan> uh.. ok
[04:15:43] <aslan> how do I do it right?
[04:15:59] <aslan> changing it in master.cf was on the postfix FAQ page.. so I tried that.
[04:17:20] <mwalling> use the submission port
[04:17:32] <mwalling> no one will send you mail on port 26
[04:18:36] <aslan> I understand, the problem is that the ISP blocks port 25 so we can't connect on that port..
[04:18:41] <aslan> where do I setup the submission port?
[04:18:43] <aslan> in master.cf?
[04:19:01] <mwalling> !relay_host
[04:19:01] <knoba> mwalling: Error: "relay_host" is not a valid command.
[04:19:06] <mwalling> !relayhost
[04:19:08] <knoba> mwalling: "relayhost" : a configuration parameter in the main.cf: The default host to send non-local mail to when no entry is matched in the optional transport(5) table. When no relayhost is given, mail is routed directly to the destination.
[04:19:14] <mwalling> you'll also need that ^^

[05:35:59] <jeffi> but i a not getting mailm working in slackware
[05:36:24] <sahil> well, this #postfix. :)
[05:36:31] <jeffi> sure
[05:36:44] <jeffi> i thought i could get some help here
[05:37:36] <seekwill> VDA?
[05:37:59] <seekwill> Yeah, I'm looking for an app that does that as well. To send files.... Let me know if you find a program that can do it :)
[05:38:11] <jeffi> its a new feature that u can use it instead of maildrop for disk quota
[05:38:21] <seekwill> oh
[05:38:45] <jeffi> and I dear to say, much better than maildrop

[05:59:25] <lkthomas> FUCK
[05:59:28] <lkthomas> I hate sendmail
[06:00:17] <sahil> lkthomas: that's why we use postfix.
[06:01:01] <sahil> jeffi: as long as your implementation of disk quota for mailboxes does not lead to backscatter, go crazy!
[06:01:04] <lkthomas> well, I am using yum remove sendmail, but it is hanging on setting up repositories
[06:01:46] <sahil> is 'yum' some linux-specific thing?
[06:01:55] <Motoko-chan> Yum is a redhat thing.
[06:02:01] <Motoko-chan> More or less.
[06:02:25] <Motoko-chan> For disk quota, make it a hard 5xx error on the data command.
[06:02:38] <Motoko-chan> I believe postfix can do that.
[06:03:28] <lkthomas> this is sick
[06:03:35] <lkthomas> how could I use rpm command to remove apps ?
[06:03:41] * sahil shrugs
[06:03:44] <Motoko-chan> rpm -e packagename
[06:03:46] <sahil> <- not a linux user.
[06:04:02] <Motoko-chan> But make sure you have a different MTA, or it will hurt you with deps.
[06:04:18] <Motoko-chan> Also, yum should work fine, just make sure you have good DNS resolution and a good mirror.
[06:04:22] <lkthomas> ok! postfix take over biw
[06:04:30] <lkthomas> sick yum
[06:04:34] <lkthomas> never likes it
[06:04:43] * Motoko-chan just uses Slackware
[06:05:08] <sahil> Motoko-chan: many people use Maildirs, for which the postfix-internal mailbox_size_limit etc. does not work very well, so the admin would have to create a table with over-quota users that rejects at SMTP time.
[06:05:23] <Motoko-chan> Hm.
[06:05:26] * sahil -> FreeBSD
[06:06:27] <Motoko-chan> I am currently (forced into) using qmail+vpopmail for mailboxes.
[06:06:36] <sahil> ack!
[06:06:46] <Motoko-chan> Although I am looking at migrating to Postfix + Dovecot when I have time to plan a migration.
[06:06:50] <sahil> dovecot has been good to us.  it was an incredibly pain migrating from uw imap, though.
[06:06:57] <Motoko-chan> Thousands of users are a pain to move.
[06:07:01] <sahil> s/incredibly/incredible*
[06:07:10] <Motoko-chan> I moved from Courier to Dovecot with the qmail setup.
[06:07:12] <sahil> Motoko-chan: possibly the understatement of the day.
[06:07:13] <Motoko-chan> So much nicer.
[06:08:05] <Motoko-chan> Especially since some users have 3k+ mails in a single folder.
[06:08:11] <Motoko-chan> Indexing = good.
[06:08:45] <sahil> some users apparently refuse to delete email.  one mailbox is > 2G.  wtf.
[06:09:33] <Motoko-chan> No clients have over 700meg of quota on their box.
[06:09:43] <Motoko-chan> We only allow pop3 remotely, imap only via webmail.
[06:10:00] <Motoko-chan> Although since we (where I work) are on the same server, we don't have quotas.
[06:11:11] <seekwill> sahil: I don't delete email :)
[06:12:16] <sahil> seekwill: blasphemer!
[06:12:22] <seekwill> :)
[06:12:29] <seekwill> Disk space is cheap.
[06:12:43] <sahil> it is, which is why we don't enforce quota, but 2G, come on! :P
[06:13:53] <seekwill> We've had several instances of customers saying "oh we never said that", and by printing up the email they sent 3-4 months ago, prove them wrong.
[06:14:31] <seekwill> It's not 2GB of forwards from friends containing stupid images
[06:14:32] <sahil> do you guys have to archive all mail as per policy/law?
[06:14:41] <seekwill> I don't think so
[06:14:48] <sahil> seekwill: *shrug*, i don't know what it is -- we don't pry in their mailboxes.
[06:14:49] <seekwill> Honestly, I just don't delete things.
[06:15:07] <seekwill> sahil: Is it for work, or consumer?
[06:15:12] <sahil> i'm talking site-wide archival policies, not individual mailbox sizes.

[14:19:02] <decker> spose it might be too early still...but here goes.
[14:19:46] <decker> my new postfix setup seems to be working great, far as I can tell.  only problem, I'm getting some weird errors in my logs.  http://rafb.net/p/8C0nnn66.html
[14:20:02] <decker> anyone have any advice on that?
[14:22:49] <lunaphyte_> are you using either sql or sasldb for sasl?
[14:23:02] <decker> I mean, authentication seems to work.  I throw in the right username/password and I'm set.  wrong username/password and it fails.  just going off local accounts by the way.
[14:23:20] <decker> I threw dovecot main.cf
[14:23:58] <decker> smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot and all that
[14:23:58] <lunaphyte_> huh?
[14:24:38] <decker> oops.  meant to say I threw dovecot into main.cf
[14:24:58] <decker> ha, sorry, been a long night so far
[14:26:52] *** Siegfried has quit IRC
[14:27:55] <lunaphyte_> i don't understand what that means.
[14:29:28] <decker> well, from what I understood, that would mean it uses dovecot for authentication.

[14:38:35] *** dazjorz has joined #postfix
[14:39:13] <decker> well, a no I thought.  since I put smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot and all, I wouldn't think it would be either sql or sasldb.

[14:45:13] <lunaphyte_> decker: dovecot and cyrus are sasl types.  sql and sasldb are sasl mechanisms.  you pick a type of sasl to use, and then you pick the mechs you'd like to use with that type.  pastebin the contents of your dovecot.conf file.

[16:31:44] <lenscape_> can I get postfix to set different (more permissive) permissions on mail delivered to a maildir?
[16:37:31] <shasta> why would you do that?
[16:37:52] <lenscape_> because the mail is processed by a daemon
[16:38:14] <lenscape_> a process on another machine
[16:38:24] <lenscape_> and there are several mailboxes that it processes
[16:38:46] <f3ew> Why not just relay mail to the other process?
[16:38:51] <f3ew> Kamaze yes
[16:39:00] <shasta> like content_filter
[16:39:09] <shasta> !content_filter

[16:39:56] <tuxick> nothing as rewarding as changing history
[16:39:57] <lenscape_> I simply need to change the permissions and we're sorted
[16:42:39] <shasta> !mailbox_command
[16:42:40] <knoba> shasta: "mailbox_command" : a configuration parameter in the main.cf: Optional external command that the local(8) delivery agent should use for mailbox delivery. The command is run as the recipient. Exception: command delivery for root executes with $default_user privileges.
[16:43:33] <shasta> write yourself a custom script and use it as mailbox_command
[16:44:59] <lenscape_> Is this simply a matter of parsing some args and writing stdin somewhere?

[17:28:25] <Roobarb> not directly

[17:29:21] <Roobarb> inbound connections will be handled on whatever interface holds the IP the connection was made to
[17:29:32] <Roobarb> outbound is a little more tricky
[17:29:52] <Roobarb> its dependant on your routing table, and where the destination IP is

[17:35:39] <Roobarb> that'll also bounce if the DNS server is down
[17:36:12] *** Tex-Twil has quit IRC

[17:40:47] <myke> that that seems high for someone that fat fingered an email address or firgits that .net or .com is required

[19:29:56] <butchevans2002> the MYSQL_README says this: This implementation allows for multiple mysql databases: you can use one for a virtual(5) table, one for an access(5) table, and one for an aliases(5) table if you want.

[19:35:25] <rob0> Generally mysql maps are not used with local domains. It's possible, but you also have to consider the needs of local(8) as well as smtpd(8). The latter uses local_recipient_maps; that part is easy.
[19:36:13] <rob0> maybe PAM with pam_mysql (is there such a thing)?
[19:36:34] <rob0> in that case you wouldn't mess with local_recipient_maps

[19:47:21] <zoldar> hello, is there any smtp and pop3/imap traffic logger with sql db support for storage? mysqmail seems to be a bit outdated and download links don't work...
[19:49:00] <Daviey> thanks
[19:49:06] <butchevans2002> rob0: all I want to do is enable the ability in postfix to accept mail only for known email addresses.  I don't use local users at all, so I'm not sure PAM would work.  I'm using dbmail as the LDA.  It is the smtpd that is failing when I enable the mysql map.
[19:49:49] <rob0> For dbmail you should use relay_domains and relay_recipient_maps.
[19:50:27] <butchevans2002> so local_recipient_maps should be left null?
[19:50:42] <rob0> :(

[19:52:34] <scout> daviey you planning on having the spamd filter it then send it back to your postfix?
[19:52:39] *** hever has quit IRC
[19:52:40] <scout> or is it going to send mail out from there
[19:53:16] <Haris> How does one implement spamhaus or any other way of filtering spam if the clients on the mail server are not used to smtp auth
[19:53:40] *** hever has joined #postfix
[19:54:35] <Daviey> scout: yah
[19:54:54] <Daviey> scout: the spamd server is deciated to just processing
[19:55:07] <butchevans2002> rob0: So, by setting relay_domains=$mydestination, then adding relay_recipient_maps=mysql:mysql-users-dbmail.cf (which postmaps correctly), will that change the way I have to do the delivery in master.cf?

[20:01:57] <rob0> Butch, 1. List dbmail domains in relay_domains **NOT** mydestination.
[20:02:05] <scout> daviey: for instance http://www.howtoforge.com/amavisd_postfix_debian_ubuntu
[20:02:11] <rob0> 2. Don't change settings you don't understand.

[20:02:36] <knoba> rob0: "address_classes" : http://www.postfix.org/ADDRESS_CLASS_README.html describes how Postfix deals with different classes of addresses: local, relay, virtual alias, virtual mailbox, and Internet.
[20:03:34] <rob0> Most servers need some kind of local(8) delivery, for cron jobs and the like.

[20:28:02] *** hparker has joined #postfix
[20:31:36] <Haris> lunaphyte_: That means you need to widen your scope of thinking :p
[20:31:57] <Haris> When I implement spamhaus, it'll ban all damned dialup and other connections, from where home users and some businesses send mail
[20:32:16] <Haris> then I'll have to implement smtp auth to give them the ability to send mail
[20:32:19] <Haris> which, I can't
[20:32:36] <Haris> that means I can't use zen.spamhaus.org for filtering mail
[20:32:45] <Haris> what other means can I exploit?
[20:33:03] <Haris> this network has a dedicated PIII box with amavis for virus/etc etc filtering
[20:33:28] <Haris> but I guess, spam still seeps through
[20:34:47] <lunaphyte_> the users and businesses are your users?  or are you talking about general mail delivery to your server?
[20:34:48] <rob0> Haris needs to widen his understanding of restrictions
[20:35:11] <lunaphyte_> i like that oxymoron :)
[20:35:19] <rob0> HINT: restrictions are evaluated IN ORDER
[20:35:50] <lunaphyte_> i'm still trying to figure out if he allows non-authenticated clients from the public internet the ability to relay.

[21:05:35] <Aw0L> well, a howto - I'm not sure if it'd be a good thing or overly complex
[21:05:52] <adaptr> if this is giving you teh headaches, don't even think about LDAP
[21:06:03] <lunaphyte_> Aw0L: it is nothing other than personal preference.  you'll find that many folks who have large sql databases tied to mail delivery will often dump to flat files for actual usage.
[21:06:19] <byspeed> hmm, i need a solution of my problem next ten minutes.. i dont want to bother you, but my webmaster is again angry with me -.-'
[21:06:20] *** muecke77 has joined #postfix
[21:06:25] <adaptr> well, as to complex - LDAP is as complex as you make it, it can aid in keeping user information in one place, for mutliple machines, and postfix can query it for mailboxes, aliases, etc.
[21:06:37] <adaptr> byspeed: then you won't get a solution

[22:53:16] <lunaphyte_> yes.
[22:53:59] <lunaphyte_> actually, a better question is probably: what should postfix be doing with mail delivered to info at recepient dot com and info at otherrecepient dot com?
[22:54:19] <webPragmatist> sending it on it's merry way
[22:54:34] <webPragmatist> not accepting it no matter what really (unless maybe it is specifically sent to localhost)
[22:55:18] <lunaphyte_> show postconf -n
