[03:50:06] <Chicago> What is your question I came in after you posted it. [03:50:13] <bobnormal> hey i'm currently forwarding almost all of my traffic to other sites, with 1 or 2 local addresses. i now want to add some addresses that forward to a script that can analyse them and discard / place in mysql with certain parameters (language, etc.). whats the postfix way to do this? i want these addresses to be virtual (currentl using mysql for definitions), and avoid creating a unix account [03:50:50] <Chicago> bobnormal: So do you already have the virtual mail aliases setup in MySQL? [03:50:57] <bobnormal> chicago: yep [03:51:21] <bobnormal> chicago: but i dont know how to redirect them to non-unix accounts -- i want them to go straight to a script instead [03:51:43] <bobnormal> chicago: aside from making another 'proxy' smtpd that acts as a gateway on the local interface, i cant figure it out [03:51:51] <Chicago> bobnormal: I am thinking that if you take a look at Mailman's aliases definitions, you'll see how the aliases can forward to a shell script. [03:52:00] <bobnormal> chicago: thanks :) [03:52:31] <Chicago> bobnormal: Can you answer my question? [03:53:31] <bobnormal> chicago: just looking .. i think, if your issue is related to outgoing mails, its probably something to do with their config .. maybe temporarily overloaded. if it's been going on for a long time, they might be timing out on address verification (if they do that) - check to see if your mailserver receives an incoming connection from theirs to check the sender-address. maybe it's firewalled from their ip range or something. [03:54:23] <Chicago> The receiving end gives some reasons such as perhaps my PIX firewall discards the IP fragmentation bit or that they can't do MTU path discovery after the HELO. [03:55:08] <bobnormal> chicago: not familiar with PIX but it could be related to that [03:55:23] <Chicago> bobnormal: I think I need to find someone to describe how they setup their smtpd_policy_service_timeout and smtpd_policy_service_max_idle while relaying mail to GoDaddy hosted domains. [03:55:54] <bobnormal> chicago: i will send a test message if you send me an example address, see if it works from my box [03:55:57] *** xp_prg has quit IRC [03:56:29] <Chicago> bobnormal: ty, but this is a mailing list server sending lots of mail through their server... the small messages get through fine. [03:57:10] <Chicago> bobnormal: Occasionally the timeouts happen and then eventually the mail is delivered later. I am going to read SMTPD_POLICY_README and see if that makes good sense to me. :O Plus, I shouldn't be doing this on a Friday/weekend. [03:57:15] <Chicago> bobnormal: Oh well. [03:57:16] *** mavrick61 has quit IRC [03:57:19] *** xpoint has joined #postfix [03:57:23] <Chicago> I guess I am still going to try and figure it out. [03:58:24] *** mavrick61 has joined #postfix [03:59:42] <bobnormal> Chicago: maybe try some of these, though defaults look generous already: smtp_data_done_timeout / smtp_data_init_timeout / smtp_data_xfer_timeout / smtp_helo_timeout / smtp_mail_timeout / smtp_quit_timeout / smtp_rcpt_timeout / smtp_rset_timeout / smtp_starttls_timeout [04:00:24] <Chicago> bobnormal: Thanks. :) I will check it out and let you know how it works for me. [04:00:37] <bobnormal> chicago: you could also try: tcpdump -s0 -w outfile.log 'host godaddysmtp.server and protocol tcp and port 25' ... then download the logfile and analyse with wireshark for the full conversation [04:01:16] *** adaptr_ has joined #postfix [04:01:23] <Chicago> I have a feeling I will do that too... if the IP fragmentation bit is being discarded and MTU path discovery is failing, there are a few things I should be able to do about that on my end.

Do you need to do it with virtual aliases? [04:30:44] <bobnormal> it'd be better than redirecting to another account then redirecting to a pipe [04:33:33] <rob0> that's how I do it. The mailman domains are virtual_alias_domains, the virtual_alias_maps point to local(8) aliases(5). [04:34:25] <bobnormal> i think it might be an achitectural requirement of postfix [04:34:28] <bobnormal> doesnt bother me though [04:34:33] <bobnormal> efficiency died in the 80s [04:34:35] <bobnormal> :) [04:34:43] <Chicago> lol [04:38:17] <rob0> Well, the point is that you have to be a real Unix user with a real shell if you want to run commands.

[08:16:17] <rob0> yes [08:16:21] <iKs> OK. [08:16:21] <rob0> if it's inet [08:16:30] <rob0> names in /etc/services [08:16:37] <iKs> So the same smtpd (right part) but on another port (left part) [08:16:44] <rob0> yup [08:17:02] <iKs> rob0: is it possible to have two completely separate main.cf, or better smtp.cf and submission.cf ? [08:17:12] <iKs> I guess there has to be an option to specify a conf file [08:17:23] <iKs> hum.. [08:17:24] <iKs> man. [08:18:25] <rob0> nope [08:18:52] <rob0> but you can override some global main.cf settings with -o options in master.cf [08:18:56] <iKs> Yep, I can't find it [08:19:13] <iKs> OK, I'll stick to one conf file and no -o in master.cf [08:19:18] <iKs> I don't really need it.. [08:19:38] <rob0> well, your submission port should ONLY allow auth'ed users [08:20:07] <iKs> why can't it allow other servers trying to send mail to $mydestination ? [08:20:10] <rob0> thus an -o smtpd_recipient_restrictions=permit_sasl_authenticated,reject [08:20:22] <iKs> I mean.. it's not a security problem is it ? [08:20:32] <iKs> It's not standard I guess though but.. right ? [08:20:46] <rob0> well probably not, it COULD be, but no real MTA will send on anything but 25 [08:21:00] <iKs> so I don't really care [08:21:08] <rob0> heck you could just redirect the port 587 to 25 [08:21:15] <rob0> a firewall fix [08:21:23] <iKs> I could.

[23:16:48] <shasta> sendmail, postfix, exim, qmail are all different MTAs [23:16:57] <shasta> qmail being more different than the others [23:17:24] <shasta> squirrelmail is a webmail, requiring imap4 access to mailboxes, doesn't give a shit what mta you use [23:17:40] *** nerbie69 has joined #postfix [23:17:55] <shasta> spamassassin is another standalone software that can be integrated with many MTAs, many different ways [23:18:12] <shasta> so is amavis, basically [23:18:21] *** hacker_112 has left #postfix [23:18:48] <Ericccc> yea, i have a server running with like 5 or 6 software only to deliver some mails [23:18:58] <shasta> doh [23:19:04] <Ericccc> it sounds crazy too me to have so many soft for only email, but it's working [23:19:17] <shasta> whatever [23:19:38] <Mazon> postfix + clamav + postgrey + spamassassin + roundcube + dovecot + maildrop - works like a charm :) [23:19:53] <Ericccc> you got 7 :) [23:20:07] <Mazon> well, could also add freshclam and clamsmtp ;) [23:20:19] <Ericccc> how can you get email without pop3 ?

[23:20:51] <shasta> no, ldap is not a mail protocol. [23:21:06] <Ericccc> is there any mail server called " /.emailServer start with a nice web admin panel ? [23:21:14] <shasta> ROTFL [23:21:22] <Ericccc> i want to create it [23:21:38] <Ericccc> a one only file, running a web server, just like Shoutcast :) [23:21:39] <vice-versa> yeah good luck with that [23:22:00] <Ericccc> or just like a ftp server [23:22:11] <Ericccc> storing passwords and conf in a file, and emails in dirs [23:22:39] <xming> M$ Excahnge does all this in one package, very neat ;) [23:22:45] <Ericccc> email server seems to be the most diffucult part to install on my server [23:22:56] <Ericccc> yea, windows.. [23:23:30] <shasta> that's what you want - point and click, no? [23:23:46] <xming> it's pop/imap/mapi/smtp/nntp/... all-in-one [23:23:59] <Ericccc> no i want a 1 process only mail server [23:24:09] <Ericccc> on linux :) [23:24:18] <xming> 1 process w/o forking nor threading server FTW :D [23:24:39] <Ericccc> just like shoutcast handles 1500 users in 1 only process [23:24:56] <shasta> right [23:25:00] <Ericccc> 2 files, 1 process :) [23:25:18] <shasta> no problems, go read some rfcs and write your own, good luck [23:25:49] <Ericccc> actually i got 250 files running postfix and his friends, and it is slow, and it looks like it do mails one by one [23:26:28] <xming> I agree, postfix is slow, when I had 250K mail in the incoming queue due to spamming, postfix is dog slow [23:26:41] <xming> exim is a lot better at that [23:26:45] <Ericccc> why postfix doesn't handle pop3 ? [23:27:05] <shasta> oh my [23:27:08] <xming> why doesn't the bakery sell meat? [23:27:23] <nerbie69> germs? [23:27:30] * nerbie69 ducks. [23:27:53] <xming> exactly, we don't want postfix with virii :) [23:28:13] <xming> handling POP3 mean archiving virii/worms [23:28:32] * xming is having fun [23:28:38] <vice-versa> because it would cease to be a bakery and become a deli [23:29:00] <Ericccc> what is the use of postfix ALONE ? [23:29:06] <xming> or vice-versa [23:29:09] <vice-versa> MTA [23:29:23] <nerbie69> well i have an easy one. i have one VPS account, so it will house both apache and postfix for email. since i'm going to host 2 domains, in postfix terms am i setting up a virtual alias? [23:29:23] <xming> Meat Transporting Acid [23:29:45] <xming> or was iut Meat TRansmitting Acid? [23:30:06] <vice-versa> Meat Teleporting Agent [23:30:15] <Ericccc> postfix without pop3, means receiving emails but nobody can't get theym ? [23:30:25] <Ericccc> i don't understand [23:30:31] <vice-versa> clearly [23:30:32] <shasta> we can see, Ericccc [23:30:37] <xming> nerbie69: depends, both can be local too [23:31:04] <xming> I us postcat /var/spool/postfix/* to read mails [23:31:14] <Ericccc> waht can i do with postfix ALONE ? (with no other soft) ? [23:31:32] <shasta> exactly what MTAs are supposed to do [23:31:32] <xming> Ericccc: receive and send mails [23:31:38] <shasta> TRANSPORTING emails [23:31:56] <xming> TELEPORTING emails? [23:32:25] <xming> Ericccc: do MTA/MDA/MUA say anything to you? [23:32:41] <Ericccc> but how the human user can open and look his emails from postfix alone ? [23:32:51] <Ericccc> yes MTA [23:32:58] <xming> Ericccc: postcat <queue file> [23:33:11] <vice-versa> mutt [23:33:14] *** xpoint has joined #postfix [23:33:24] <Ericccc> ok, so it means it store email, and i can read theym in linux command ? [23:34:01] <xming> Eyou need MTA + MDA + MUA for reading and sending mails ala outlook/thunderbird/.... [23:34:07] <xming> Ericccc: you need MTA + MDA + MUA for reading and sending mails ala outlook/thunderbird/.... [23:34:37] <Ericccc> yea, thats makes MailServer complex [23:34:46] <vice-versa> see less(1) [23:34:58] <xming> mail server is sooooo simple till you get spamed to death [23:35:05] <Ericccc> hopefully, web(apache), ftp, mysql are standalone working [23:35:14] <Ericccc> only mail needs multiple softs [23:35:36] *** madrescher has quit IRC [23:35:38] <xming> I don't see you compaing that hhtp and ftp are 2 softs [23:35:45] <xming> ISS do that with one :D [23:35:48] <Ericccc> xming : you mean the spam made MailServers complex ? [23:36:27] <nerbie69> xming: if i want info at example1 dot com to be seperate from info at example2 dot com then i should use virtual right? [23:36:35] <xming> Ericccc: wait till you have spam and you have 250K mails in the queue and you don't know what's spam and what's ham :D [23:37:00] <shasta> ye, like he knows what a queue is... [23:37:03] <xming> nerbie69: yes, but I never use virtual [23:38:22] <xming> nerbie69: I use dbamil for pop/imap, so I use transport map to deliver them, to postfix, it's just relaying [23:38:42] *** Fallenou has quit IRC [23:40:01] <nerbie69> xming: mind if i check my understanding. i have a rails app that needs to send signup authentication emails. I'll also want to have info at example1 dot com and info at example2 dot com It sounds like i may need something else to go along with postfix eh? [23:40:46] <xming> nerbie69: for sending or receiving? [23:41:50] <nerbie69> both i guess. sorry to be simplistic, but i'll send and recieve from thunderbird, through this new server. sorry to be noobish [23:42:37] <vice-versa> !tell nerbie69 basic [23:43:47] <xming> nerbie69: well you need MTA + MDA + MUA :) [23:44:19] <xming> nerbie69: MTA for sending, MTA + MDA + MUA for receiving [23:44:30] <nerbie69> thanks vice-versa and thanks xming once i saw you giving it to that last guy, i thought shoot, i'm gonna be him next. :_) [23:44:34] <nerbie69> :-) even [23:45:06] <xming> :) [23:47:11] <vice-versa> nothing like a good ASCII pummelling to idle away the afternoon [23:50:56] <Ericccc> ok, so is it normal that postfix alone can not receive, neither send email ? [23:51:20] <shasta> no, by default it can both receive and send emails [23:51:28] <vice-versa> wtf, that's it's primary task [23:52:54] * vice-versa readies the capslock [23:55:59] *** hparker has joined #postfix
