[00:34:02] <serialthrilla> is there a postfix transport for the spamassassin spamd daemon?
[00:34:30] <serialthrilla> such as running the content filter in a daemon mode instead of the command line mode (where it uses spamc)

[02:14:54] <Rockj> Where should I look to automagically drop emails which scores over 10 ? I see no point in delivering them as tagged spam when score is that high.

[02:34:26] <Rockj> serialthrilla, I think maybe setting   final_spam_destiny to D_DISCARD and make sure kill_level is 10 should fix it maybe. Since mails over tag2 gets "spammy" and still gets delivered, but after going over kill level they are spam and will follow final_spam_destiny if im not wrong
[02:34:32] <Rockj> but I want to be sure before doing it :)
[02:35:45] <serialthrilla> that does appear to be correct from what i've read so far... i was just introduced to amavisd-new about 2 hours ago though

[08:17:51] <devurandom> Hi!
[08:17:54] <devurandom> Is it possible to run a smtp server for a domain on a non-standard port? MX does not support this, but would smtp servers support SRV? Or is there another method?
[08:18:24] *** m0t3jl has quit IRC
[08:18:37] <Motoko-chan> You can run on an arbitrary port for clients, but acting as an MX basically needs port 25 accessible.
[08:20:47] <devurandom> Hm. :(
[08:21:08] <devurandom> So I need to set the MX to a server that is accessible on 25 and then forward the mail from there?
[08:25:46] <Motoko-chan> Yes.
[08:26:07] <Motoko-chan> Are you trying to run a mail server from a residential internet connection?
[08:27:59] <devurandom> No.
[08:28:08] <devurandom> From my university.
[08:34:58] <Motoko-chan> Oh.
[08:35:10] <Motoko-chan> Good luck, and make sure it is allowed per the AUP.

[11:17:02] <snadge> how do i test sasl authentication with thunderbird?
[11:17:11] <snadge> enabling smtp auth _should_ do this right?
[11:17:36] <Zelest> enabling it as in "force" it, yes.
[11:18:00] <jMCg> I don't know. I test it with nc or telnet or openssl s_client.
[11:18:49] <recw> hi2all: where is better to install mail server  - on the pc witch is a router - or in localnet with port mapping from this pc-router?
[11:21:52] * f3ew would do it on the router
[11:28:05] <recw> i also think in this way) if its in localnet - does it means that i need to install dns-server and configure to all pc in LAN to handle queries with that dns-server?
[11:29:32] <recw> or it's allright and  they can send mail with dns from my ISP?
[11:29:42] <snadge> dammit.. sasl isnt working, i _thought_ i had tested this
[11:29:54] <snadge> except mail clients fall back to using just plain unauthenticated.. without giving an error
[11:30:02] <snadge> and the ip i was testing it from was whitelisted :/

[11:37:51] <snadge> ok that works.. but if i connect on port 465.. it connects, but does nothing
[11:37:59] <snadge> just says connected :/
[11:38:23] *** saurabhb has quit IRC
[11:38:59] <snadge> then it says 250 8BITMIME .. is that right?
[11:39:20] <dragonheart> ewil a 465 don't use the -starttls smtp
[11:40:01] <snadge> aye of course
[11:40:01] <dragonheart> did it show certificate information?
[11:40:05] <snadge> yes

[14:43:47] <jMCg> Hi folks.
[14:44:18] <Trengo> hi
[14:44:45] <jMCg> I have postfix server running as open relay.
[14:44:50] <jMCg> Not good.
[14:45:34] <onre> stop it. :p
[14:45:49] <jMCg> I reasons are: It's running behind a load-balancer and is hence IP unaware, it's also running in a network that is pretty much DNS agnostic -- and I had to configure whitelists for all domains of all our labels.
[14:46:05] <jMCg> Hence making it an half-open-relay.
[14:47:02] <jMCg> Now I'm trying to figure out a work-around, until this thing is replaced by an exchange server, because as it is now, it's a security threat.
[14:49:13] <sysmonk> oh sure
[14:49:17] <sysmonk> exchange is less insecure
[14:49:30] <sysmonk> don't use postfix at all, it's teh biggest security threat around
[14:49:40] <jMCg> sysmonk: shush.
[14:49:45] <jMCg> I use postfix everywhere.
[14:49:52] <sysmonk> except when you use exchange
[14:49:52] <sysmonk> ;)
[14:49:59] <Trengo> exchange is the worst, sorry
[14:50:09] <sysmonk> nah, i think qmail is worse
[14:50:11] <jMCg> But using it in such a rediculous environment I don't want to.
[14:50:13] <Trengo> or maybe it is the people setting them up
[14:50:15] <sysmonk> but it's my imho
[14:50:29] <sysmonk> Trengo: maybe that ;)
[14:50:30] <jMCg> I'm giving the mail infrastructure out of my hand for this environment, and I'm very happy about it.
[14:50:46] <sysmonk> jMCg: oh, sure, you think exchange will do better in that env?
[14:50:48] <Trengo> sysmonk i mean leaving them open relaying
[14:51:11] <jMCg> sysmonk: honestly, I don't give two fucks about it. I'm just happy to get out of that madness.
[14:51:28] <sysmonk> how bout 3 ?
[14:51:41] <jMCg> Not even three.
[14:51:43] <sysmonk> the best solution would be to hire a sysadmin
[14:51:50] <sysmonk> but sure, you can install exchange
[14:52:45] * jMCg strangulates sysmonk
[14:52:56] <jMCg> I'm not installing exchange.

[16:14:41] <as84> Hello all
[16:14:43] <as84> i have set postfix with SASL for Authentification but set the type to dovecot, so it identificates through dovecot virtual users
[16:14:50] <as84> thing is whenever I generate the mencode4 string for say webmaster at mydomain dot com
[16:14:57] <as84> i see this in the log
[16:15:02] <as84> dovecot: auth(default): client out: FAIL  3       user=webmaster.com
[16:15:23] <as84> I don't think the problem is with dovecot but more with postfix, I am a bit stuck at thinking on how to troubleshoot what could cause that
[16:15:29] <as84> any help would be appreciated
[16:17:46] <rob0> I think the problem is that you're using perl to test, and you didn't realize that "@" has a special meaning in perl.
[16:17:53] *** keffer has quit IRC
[16:18:37] <as84> rob0, yeah I am using perl to generate the encoded string as suggested in the postfix doc
[16:18:49] <as84> is there a way to escape the "@" ?
[16:19:33] <rob0> I think the example in the Postfix document shows the escape.
[16:22:30] <shasta> use ' instead of "

[16:33:39] <rob0> Oh, then you have a lot more reading to do, you need to understand transport(5).
[16:34:05] <as84> guys, when adding authentification in postfix, would postfix still forbid relays to the accounts that authenticate?

[16:37:08] <webar7> maybe he means "that are required to authenticate"
[16:37:35] *** JoeWulf has quit IRC
[16:38:01] <webar7> or "if an account authenticates can they start relaying?"  :-)
[16:38:08] <webar7> in that case the answer is no
[16:38:19] <as84> rob0... I have installed postfix and SASL.. accounts can authenticate against the smtp server, but i guess a relay denied when trying to send an email
[16:38:27] <webar7> that's the mailservers domain not for users
[16:38:55] <rob0> !sasl
[16:38:55] <knoba> rob0: "sasl" : SASL is 'Simple Authentication and Security Layer', necessary for SMTP AUTH, and provided to Postfix by addin software. Cyrus SASL and/or Dovecot IMAP/POP3 can provide SASL. See http://www.postfix.org/SASL_README.html for details.
[16:39:21] *** linderox has quit IRC
[16:39:23] <rob0> If you're getting "relay denied" with working SASL, you didn't follow the instructions.
[16:39:25] <webar7> postfix needs to know it can send mail for those users
[16:39:38] <as84> smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks,permit_sasl_authenticated,reject_unauth_destination

[16:40:00] <knoba> rob0: "outlook" : MS Outlook has numerous problems with TLS and AUTH support. Try using a better client to troubleshoot your Postfix server's AUTH features; then once you know it works, you can go back and break it such that Outlook will work.

[19:10:36] <{aaron}> yeah, making the regex more specific is not helping becuase the input string is not 'user at incoming dot com' it's just 'user'
[19:10:44] <{aaron}> is there a way I can get deubg to come out of the evaluation?
[19:10:48] <rob0> context needed

[19:16:53] <{aaron}> ^user. also matches, so there is some next character but I don't know what it is, and it doesn't match @
[19:17:31] * {aaron} looks for logging level
[19:18:45] <rob0> I still haven't seen any non-verbose logs.
[19:19:36] <rob0> And that map was munged beyond all possible usefulness.
[19:20:56] <adaptr> one of those, eh ?
[19:21:05] <adaptr> how much are we charging 'im ?

[20:20:08] <{aaron}> figured it out.  I think the virtual alias domains infrastructure makes several passes with different input strings. one of those was pre-emptively matching my catch all.  i had to fully qualify the catch-all
[20:20:53] <{aaron}> interestingly it the input string string was actually the local machine name

[22:39:15] <Rabble_Leader> question: How do I enable access to another user's email on my server?
[22:39:57] <Rabble_Leader> I can clarify that I'm not spying.  I have accidentally set up two users ... both of which are me.
[22:40:45] <Rabble_Leader> I know I forwarded root and etc to myself.  Can I do the same thing for the other user.  And how?  I've forgotten
[22:42:59] <Rabble_Leader> can I chmod the other user directory to be owned by me?
[22:49:36] <Rabble_Leader> I mean chown?
