[00:44:47] <k-man__> if i have set an alias up for a group of users
[00:45:03] <k-man__> is it possible to have postfix add a reply-to header to that alias?
[00:49:47] *** growltiger has joined #postfix
[00:50:43] <cafuego> so tha if a use in that group msails out, replies go to the allias instead?
[00:51:54] <cafuego> not really, but you can use canonical mapping to rewrite the from into the alias
[00:54:07] <k-man__> cafuego, exactly, thanks. I'll read up on it
[00:54:17] <k-man__> cafuego, exactly, thanks. I'll read up on it
[00:54:18] <k-man__> oops
[00:54:21] <k-man__> sorry about that
[00:54:29] <cafuego> heh
[00:54:40] <cafuego> twice the dedication :-)
[00:58:07] <k-man__> is there an example i can see somewhere?
[00:58:47] <cafuego> i have an entry here: "cafuego    my at email dot address"
[00:59:20] <cafuego> so anything from "cafuego" gets rewritten to as coming from "my at email dot address"
[00:59:45] <cafuego> you'd nee to have "user1@domain   alias@domain"
[00:59:46] <k-man__> i have to go now - i'll research it later
[00:59:48] <k-man__> thanks for your help
[00:59:59] <cafuego> and repeat for each user in the alias

[01:28:29] *** pirho has quit IRC
[01:30:24] <k-man_> cafuego: so that will basicaly rewrite the from address to the alias address?
[01:31:28] *** Filbert--- has joined #postfix
[01:34:57] *** Filbert has quit IRC
[01:40:20] <k-man_> what about using the prepend action to add the header? and trigger with a check_recipient_access restriction?
[01:41:05] *** jsoftw has joined #postfix
[01:41:31] <jsoftw> Say I have a mail as it sit's in a Maildir. How to I inject that into postfix to get it sent?
[01:41:34] <cafuego> k-man_: 1) yes. 2) i have no idea :-)
[01:42:05] <jsoftw> Basically its a quarantined mail which I want to put back into postfix for delivery (for false positivies)
[01:42:08] *** nonsequitir_ has quit IRC
[01:42:46] *** Filbert- has quit IRC
[01:42:49] <k-man_> cafuego: maybe i'm not quite understanding but the problem with the solution you suggest is that all mails from user@domain will end up with alias@domain as their from address won't they?
[01:42:58] <cafuego> yes
[01:43:15] <cafuego> do you not want that to happen all the time?
[01:43:30] <k-man_> ah, thats not quite what I wanted. I'm trying to set up a poor mans mailing list
[01:43:48] <k-man_> using alias but I'm thinking its more difficult than I realised
[01:44:04] <cafuego> mailman ftw ;-)
[01:45:09] <k-man_> cafuego: i looked at the install howto for mailmain and it seemed fairly long winded. as I only have 1 list and about 5 users on it, it seemed a little overkill but i think yoru right now
[01:45:09] *** mib_7kqjgu has joined #postfix
[01:45:17] <k-man_> its too hard to do just using aliases
[01:45:41] <k-man_> well... impossible _only_ using alias and requires other things to make it work
[01:45:49] <cafuego> mailman + postfix is fairlyn trivial to set up, especially if the list is onits own domain
[01:46:02] <k-man_> cafuego: it is on its own domain
[01:46:16] <k-man_> ill check it out again, thanks :)
[01:46:41] <k-man_> is there a prefered set of instructions on setting that up?
[01:46:43] <cafuego> k-man_: use the mailman transport method - it's in the mailman docs.
[01:46:45] <k-man_> i don't have any virtual domains
[01:46:49] <mib_7kqjgu> hey guys, how can i make it so any email sent to the alias "anton" also gets forwarded to his cell number? xxxxxxxxxx at mymetropcs dot com
[01:47:40] <cafuego> mib_7kqjgu: anton: \anton, xxxxxxxxxx at mymetropcs dot com" in /etc/aliases
[01:47:59] <cafuego> mib_7kqjgu: that will drop a copy in his inbox and also forward a copy
[01:48:55] <mib_7kqjgu> well his actual login is "vahi" without the quotes but i created an alias for him called anton. can i just daisy chain the anton alias to teh new metropcs alias as well?
[01:49:33] <cafuego> yep, just add a comma and any new recipients
[01:50:10] <cafuego> "anton: vaghi, xxxx@blah, other@address, andanother@email"
[01:50:47] <mib_7kqjgu> so now it looks like this "anton: vahi" but it needs to look like this? "anton: vahi, xxxxxxxxxx at mymetropcs dot com"
[01:51:49] <cafuego> yep
[01:52:04] <mib_7kqjgu> thanks!

[02:05:14] <aoeu> i changed all the config files too
[02:05:21] *** githogori has quit IRC

[02:12:15] *** pitakill has joined #postfix
[02:15:59] *** workdammit has joined #postfix
[02:16:49] <aoeu> how would changing my hostname cause this error?
[02:17:56] *** Fallenou has quit IRC
[02:22:15] <aoeu> seekwill, maybe i don't want to change it back. how do i force postfix to use the new domain?
[02:22:42] <seekwill> Didn't you say you thought it wasn't the hostname anymore?
[02:22:56] <aoeu> yes
[02:23:10] <aoeu> i have everything configured right, and for some reason it isn't delivering mail
[02:23:43] <seekwill> I bet it's not configured right
[02:23:48] <seekwill> What does your logs say?
[02:24:36] <aoeu> Sep 23 20:21:22 tourportage postfix/error[19658]: ED7DA9FDA8: to=<scott at zeug dot us>, orig_to=<scott at tourportage dot com>, relay=none, delay=1, status=bounced (User u

[02:25:12] <chadmaynard> what is your virtual user map set to?
[02:25:36] <aoeu> /etc/postfix/virtual
[02:26:14] <chadmaynard> whats in that?
[02:26:45] <aoeu> http://zeug.us/virtual
[02:29:27] <aoeu> doesn't everything look right?
[02:30:37] <chadmaynard> did you postmap /etc/postfix/virtual ?
[02:30:44] <aoeu> yes
[02:31:11] <chadmaynard> after adding scott at zeug dot us ?
[02:31:17] <aoeu> yes
[02:32:10] <aoeu> and did postfix reload
[02:33:55] <aoeu> could there maybe be a bug in postfix?
[02:38:28] <aoeu> ugh this is very annoying
[02:40:10] <aoeu> a few days before i made this change, i added the user zeug, and changed my virtual file to send everything from zeug.us to zeug
[02:40:10] *** gutocarvalho has quit IRC
[02:40:25] <aoeu> and it started sending all email to zeug, not just zeug.us
[02:40:40] <aoeu> so then i set it back to scott, and changed my hostname and it hasn't worked since
[02:41:01] <seekwill> Who's Scott?
[02:41:11] <aoeu> a username
[02:42:11] * aoeu is going to change everything back to zeug.us just for the hell of it to see if things start working again

[02:50:53] <aoeu> i'll just run it off of this hostname
[02:51:02] <vice-versa> lol
[02:51:04] <seekwill> I like that hostname anyways
[02:51:28] <aoeu> no one ever goes to that name, they always use my others
[02:51:37] <aoeu> just gets spam
[02:51:52] <aoeu> thats how i know my mailserver's working, if scott at zeug dot us is getting spam, its up
[02:52:22] <vice-versa> O.o
[02:52:28] <vice-versa> wow
[02:53:16] <seekwill> You need better spam handling!
[02:53:24] <aoeu> it gets 1 spam msg a minute
[02:53:59] <aoeu> no, i probably shouldn't have signed up for a lot of paid survey companies with it years ago
[02:54:05] <aoeu> my stupid teenage years lol
[02:55:27] <aoeu> when i sign up for stuff now, i use aliases
[02:55:47] <aoeu> like myspace at vanness dot ws for myspace, facebook at vanness dot ws for facebook, etc.

[04:02:18] <dan__t> Hello.
[04:03:07] <dan__t> I have many messages in queue that appear to be spam, which have a deferred status.  I suspect that they may have an impact on current performance.  Is it advisable to search and delete such messages, or is there some way that I can clear them based on recipient, or anything like that?

[04:29:55] <vice-versa> dan__t: you're treating the symptom not the cause, your first order of business is to figure out why your queues are clogged with undeliverable mail in the first place
[04:30:17] <dan__t> That has been established and rectified.
[04:30:50] <dan__t> Assuming that being the case, I understand that Postfix will resolve the deferred messages itself, but just as part of not-often-routine maintenance there might be something I could do to assist manually.

[04:57:51] <sahil> dan__t: yes, you can clear them based on recipient.
[04:58:18] <sahil> dan__t: you have to parse the output of mailq, extract the QUEUEIDs and pass them to postsuper -d - (the last dash reads the input from STDIN).

[04:59:26] <sahil> i prefer a doing it w/o sed with cut and tr, but try what was just posted as well.

[07:45:23] <doesnotexist> what do you mean i had to split it *confuzed*
[07:45:35] <doesnotexist> would it mess things up?
[07:45:46] <xpoint> the alias_maps is for all local users that cant read mails on localhost and since that want them otherplases or users

[07:55:14] <xpoint> yes it will, but not for virtual_alias maps
[07:55:32] <xpoint> alias_maps most not be splted
[07:56:00] <doesnotexist> how do i fix it, the splitted files
[07:56:12] <xpoint> join them
[07:56:15] <dan__t> hm, so I can use smtp:[ip.add.re.ss] I believe, to redirect all accepted mail to a remote transport, right/
[07:56:29] <doesnotexist> Additionally, aliases were created for the email addresses virusalert and spam.police in our postfix aliases file.
[07:56:33] <doesnotexist> i was just following that
[07:56:49] <doesnotexist> i need to add virusalert and spam.police in the postfix alias file
[07:57:01] <xpoint> show me this alias files so
[07:59:18] <doesnotexist> i removed the thing that i added in /etc/aliases
[07:59:32] <doesnotexist> then i did postalias /etc/aliases
[07:59:35] <doesnotexist> then newaliases

[09:17:03] <sysmonk> were you sending from mta or from console?
[09:17:11] <sysmonk> you have a bad from address, which can't be verified
[09:18:07] <change_> i tried from the webmail
[09:18:18] <sysmonk> then set your webmail setting correctly
[09:18:40] <change_> i tried using telnet aswell
[09:18:51] <sysmonk> what did you use for your 'from' ?
[09:19:20] <change_> my email adress...valid one...i can receive mail from anywhere bu not send

[09:27:55] <change_> ok thats weird,it works from telnet
[09:28:06] <sysmonk> it should :)
[09:28:11] <sysmonk> if you gave it a correct FROM
[09:28:26] <sysmonk> the problem is that your from isn't correct when sending from webmail
[09:28:41] <sysmonk> you should 1. fix the webmail or 2. make postfix append a correct domain
[09:28:56] <change_> where do i check that? or how do i fix it sorry...?
[09:29:03] <sysmonk> webmail settings!
[09:29:21] <sysmonk> if it's squirrelmail then go to your profile and make your email address correct

[11:23:31] <wooz> Vladimir[LV]: Then just install dovecot and uninstall courier ;p
[11:23:36] <xpoint> scott, how ?, return-path is postfix envelope-sender header, did other set this ?
[11:24:48] <xpoint> if from is empty make it set to return-path is better
[11:25:23] <Vladimir[LV]> mm
[11:25:34] <Vladimir[LV]> what is best? dovecot or courier?
[11:25:35] <xpoint> message-id is newer anything to do with with sender sent the email
[11:26:05] <xpoint> Vladimir[LV], you ask to much :)

[11:27:21] <xpoint> Vladimir[LV], first you have to define better for me
[11:28:42] <xpoint> Vladimir[LV], but shourt: 1 courier-imap is stable, 2: dovecot is more develope on, so its a bit unstable

[11:32:49] <Tykling> dovecot has been very very stable for me, and a quantum leap in front of courier in ease of configurability ;)
[11:33:11] <Vladimir[LV]> xpoint, good, then installing courier back
[11:33:14] <Vladimir[LV]> :)))
[11:33:35] <Vladimir[LV]> but by other howto ;D
[11:33:37] <xpoint> i did not say that dovecot is bad
[11:33:53] <Vladimir[LV]> xpoint: just joke =)
[11:34:21] <andreask2> Hi! I'm trying to make Postfix SMTP-Auth work with Cyrus-SASL and MySQL. In /etc/postfix/sasl/smtpd.conf I use pwcheck_method: auxprop, auxprop_plugin: sql, libsasl2 and libsasl2-modules-sql are installed. But when I try to login, I get an error in /var/log/auth.log: sql_select option missing, auxpropfunc error no mechanism available, _sasl_plugin_load failed on sasl_auxprop_plug_init for plugin: sql
[11:34:42] <xpoint> i see a number of problems in dovecot, but maybe its just me :(
[11:35:53] <xpoint> andreask2, is cyrus-sasl compiled with mysql and crypt ?
[11:36:03] <andreask2> saslfinger -s finds libsql.* files in /usr/lib/sasl2.
[11:38:24] <andreask2> it's an ubuntu package, I installed libsasl2, libsasl2-modules and libsasl2-modules-sql.
[11:38:31] *** Fallenou has joined #postfix
[11:38:38] <andreask2> how can I find out?
[11:39:11] <andreask2> I don't use cyrus but courier, only for Postfix SMTP-Auth.
[11:40:39] <scott> xpoint: I'm guessing if the header was set by the client it would override what the MDA wants to use
[11:43:03] <xpoint> andreask2, if passwords in mysql is crypted md5 then you need crypt support in sasl, else you need to do saslauthd mapping

[14:25:16] <sysmonk> unless you changed it in your main.cf
[14:25:26] <andreask2> I changed /etc/postfix/sasl/smtpd.conf and restarted postfix, but this change had no effect, still an error with sql modul, but I removed all sql commands and used "pwcheck_method: saslauthd"

[14:26:17] * jduggan shrugs

[15:59:44] <Haris> can we clean up email for some domains that we are only acting as front MX for?
[15:59:49] <Haris> via postfix+clamav?
[16:00:29] <Haris> there are 2 MX. our box is on the front, on the internet, but doesn't house the email accounts, just cleans them up
[16:11:38] <Dominian> huh?
[16:16:19] <OneFix_Work> So, here's a question.  If we have a DomainKeys record & key and a server in our domain without the key sends a message to Yahoo, will Yahoo deny the message?
[16:16:44] <adnc> no
[16:17:07] <OneFix_Work> So, is the DomainKey only for servers outside of our domain?
[16:17:13] <adnc> this is not the only criteria yahoo uses
[16:17:18] <adnc> no
[16:17:38] <adnc> it makes sure that the sender is authorized to send with this domain
[16:17:49] <adnc> and signs it

[19:17:42] <severus> Hi there, I have a new server, this time I decided to move from Slack/Qmail to Debian/Postfix (long story...)
[19:18:00] *** gonewestcoast has joined #postfix
[19:18:11] <severus> After somewhat of a struggle (still getting used to the new MTA and all) I managed to configure postfix + clamsmtpd.
[19:18:25] <severus> New emails come and it seems to work fine.
[19:18:57] <severus> However - some old emails that were stuck in the queue - Won't go, running sendmail -q doesn't help much and I get the following errors:
[19:19:29] <Dominian> postsuper -r ALL ?
[19:19:43] <Dominian> and why'd you switch from slackware!? :)
[19:19:48] <Dominian> that's what I use.. works fine ;)
[19:19:59] <severus> I love slack.
[19:20:05] <severus> But I host this server at a friend's rack.
[19:20:16] <severus> Basically - he forced my hand into debian, telling me I am wasting my time :)
[19:20:18] *** denis_ has joined #postfix
[19:20:33] *** lambda has joined #postfix
[19:20:37] <severus> But the truth is - I still feel more at home with slack, I don't like leaving everything to the machine (apt and friends...)
[19:20:53] <severus> First - I get this annoying warning:
[19:20:55] <severus> warning: connect to transport 127.0.0.1: No such file or directory
[19:20:55] <mofino> and your problem is?
[19:21:12] <severus> And then: status=deferred (mail transport unavailable) on each of the emails in the queue
[19:21:18] <severus> New mail is being processed without any problem.
[19:21:24] <mofino> are those users using a different transport?
[19:21:28] <severus> So I don't understand what's wrong.
[19:21:44] <mofino> does everyone use the same transport?
[19:21:57] <severus> I am not sure, how can I check it?
[19:22:04] <severus> (Still getting used to postfix... Sorry...)
[19:22:10] <mofino> main.cf
[19:22:12] <mofino> master.cfg
[19:22:16] <mofino> look for transport_maps
[19:22:21] <severus> The word "transport" does not even appear there.
[19:22:27] <mofino> where is there?
[19:22:33] <mofino> in those config files?
[19:22:56] <googlah> you have to manually put transport in there..
[19:22:59] <mofino> clearly at some stage you are asking postfix to use a transport that is 127.0.0.1
[19:23:42] <severus> Well, I did add a content scanner
[19:23:52] <mofino> ok
[19:23:56] <mofino> and does that sit on 127.0.0.1?
[19:23:59] <severus> And the required configuration on master.cf to listen to the port.
[19:24:05] <mofino> excellent
[19:24:07] <mofino> there is your problem
[19:24:09] <severus> Yes, but 127.0.0.1:PORT and not just 127.0.0.1
[19:24:27] *** CartoonCat has joined #postfix
[19:24:51] *** growltiger_ has quit IRC
[19:25:16] <severus> Umm.. where is my problem...? I don't see it :)
[19:25:27] <mofino> in and around there
[19:25:44] <mofino> obviously i can't SEE what your doing
[19:25:46] <severus> Ok. But as I said - new emails are being processed okay.
[19:25:51] <mofino> ok?
[19:26:04] <severus> Yes, I send email and it arrives all the way to my maildir.
[19:26:34] <severus> Goes to port 25, from there to clamsmtpd in port 10025, from there back to postfix in 10026 and to my maildir.
[19:26:45] <mofino> so why aren't those few working?
[19:27:03] <severus> They are all originated from within the box.
[19:27:04] <mofino> are they consistently failing?
[19:27:06] <severus> Trying to go outside.
[19:27:19] <mofino> ok, so in-> out doesn't work?
[19:27:38] <severus> I guess so, I am almost certain that I did see some emails go outside though.
[19:27:46] <mofino> well check again
[19:27:50] *** cilly has joined #postfix
[19:27:56] <severus> Only old emails that were sent before I fixed the configuration problem are stuck.
[19:27:59] <severus> Let me check again, seccy.
[19:28:05] <mofino> well
[19:28:13] <mofino> maybe those emails are in a dumb state
[19:28:18] <mofino> try re-queuing them
[19:28:23] <mofino> queueing
[19:28:42] <severus> Yup, new emails are going out without a problem, old emails are still stuck.
[19:28:46] <severus> How can I re-queue them?
[19:28:57] <mofino> man postsuper
[19:29:35] <severus> Thanks
[19:29:57] <severus> Works like a charm.
[19:30:00] <mofino> good stuff
[19:30:09] <mofino> i guess postfix saves state ...
[19:30:30] <severus> Thanks again, and actually - it was the solution suggested by Dominian in the first place :) I should have listened to a fell slackker ;)
[19:30:37] <mofino> heh
[19:30:48] <severus> fell=fellow
[19:30:50] <severus> ;)
[19:31:20] *** tshine has quit IRC
[19:31:51] <severus> Now all I am left with is configuring dspam, which looks a real pain... :|
[19:32:14] <mofino> dspam any good?
[19:32:31] <seekwill> I use both dspam and clamav
[19:32:45] <seekwill> Well... I use Zimbra, which uses clamav and dspam :)
[19:33:09] <mofino> but is it any good?
[19:33:24] <severus> The same friend who forced me to move from slack/qmail to debian/postfix says that SA is "a piece of crap" and dspam kicks his ass.
[19:33:30] <sysmonk> me uze sExchange
[19:33:42] <sysmonk> me sexcCHAnge be good
[19:33:44] <severus> without the his ass, just ass
[19:33:45] <severus> oops ;)
[19:33:57] <severus> This is going to bash.org I guess ;) never got quoted before...
[19:34:01] <mofino> severus, so it's a baseless claim then
[19:34:24] <severus> Well, he said that dspam is faster and more accurate.
[19:34:36] <mofino> i imagine it's faster
[19:34:44] <mofino> more accurate ..... not so sure
[19:35:01] <seekwill> oh yeah, zimbra has spamassassin too
[19:35:02] <severus> But it needs to be taught, on a PER USER basis for maximum efficiency.
[19:35:03] *** silvex has left #postfix
[19:35:17] <mofino> severus, sounds like a pain
[19:35:23] <mofino> it has no auto-learn?
[19:35:36] <seekwill> How would it autolearn?
[19:35:40] <severus> It has auto-learn, but you first need to teach it with 100-3000 spams and hams...
[19:35:43] <mofino> via rules + RBLs
[19:35:49] <mofino> lame
[19:35:56] <mofino> so it's a bayes DB?
[19:35:58] <seekwill> RBLs should be done before it hits your AS/AV
[19:36:04] <mofino> WEAK
[19:36:08] <seekwill> That is not weak
[19:36:17] <mofino> rbls can be done in front yes
[19:36:22] <severus> Well, I can't defend dspam as I have never used it before.
[19:36:23] <seekwill> SHOULD be done in front
[19:36:26] <mofino> but there are extended lists in SA
[19:36:38] <mofino> like content RBLs
[19:36:44] <seekwill> ah ok
[19:36:47] <mofino> heh
[19:37:29] <severus> All I know is that for the next few days, I am about to get TONS of spam... I used to have qconfirm as my "front shield" before, blocking approx 1000 spam emails per day.
[19:37:30] <seekwill> That's already integrated, afaik
[19:37:45] <seekwill> 1000/day? That's it? :)
[19:38:10] <severus> Seriously, thousand(s) per day, VERY annoying to have your firstname at lastname dot com flooded with spam.
[19:38:23] *** aut- has quit IRC
[19:38:48] <mofino> spam rule #1: don't give out your email address to non-humans
[19:38:49] <severus> qconfirm blocked most of the spam and most of the idiots who can't handle confirmation systems :)
[19:39:26] <severus> life rule #1: other humans might get their lame windows boxes harvested for addresses.
[19:39:30] *** CartoonCat has quit IRC
[19:39:56] <mofino> heh this is true
[19:40:38] <severus> Is there an equivalent to qmail-inject in postfix?
[19:40:46] <mofino> sendmail i thinki
[19:41:12] <severus> I can't just pipe mail to sendmail afaik...
[19:41:19] <mofino> postdrop maybe
[19:41:22] <mofino> never used it
[19:41:48] <severus> Ok, I'll check it out, or re-write my mail scripts to use sendmail instead.
[19:42:10] <mofino> yeah, just specify the details on the command line

[20:26:56] <neuwald> hi all. I have two postfix servers on the same LAN. I can send email from server A to server B, and from server B to server A. But, when I send an attachment from server A to server B, I got the message delivery temporarily suspended: lost connection with xxx[xxx] while sending message body
[20:27:12] <neuwald> anybody knows why?
[20:28:44] <Dominian> how bit of an attachment
[20:30:59] <sysmonk> neuwald: how about sending an bigger email
[20:31:07] <sysmonk> like copying over the loren ipsum test and sending it over?
[20:31:19] <sysmonk> imho _might_ be a MTU problem
[20:31:33] <CartoonCat> I am trying to debug my postfix on gentoo and can not locate a mail.log file (or any variation of). I have set debug_peer_list to include my localhost (where im trying to send mail from). Where would I find the confgiration that specifies the logfile locale?

[20:32:11] *** fbc has joined #postfix
[20:32:28] <CartoonCat> ive checked, nothing there. does postfix not have the option to specify where its errors go?
[20:32:37] <sysmonk> CartoonCat: postfix logs to syslog
[20:32:39] <Dominian> it uses syslog
[20:32:44] <sysmonk> you can set the facility and stuff in main.cf
[20:32:58] <sysmonk> syslog_facility syslog_name
[20:32:59] <fbc> How do I make postfix accept my mail through another port?? I'm port 25 blocked at home and would like to send mail through my server.
[20:33:05] <sysmonk> and where THOSE log to - depends on your syslog configuration
[20:33:15] <CartoonCat> oooh. mmm, ok then i might have shunted it off to timbuktu myself. TY syllogism, Dominian

[20:58:04] <oblio_> who wants to go on a date w/ me
[20:58:20] <roe_> Each smtp transaction creates an additional "Received:" header.  Within this header there is a time stamp.  Now lets take an simple example.  I send an email from my desktop to my mail server, my mail server sends it to the destination mailserver.  That will create at least 2 header entries, each of them have a time stamp.  My question is what machine is used for the time stamp
[20:58:56] <sysmonk> oblio_: are you a female?
[20:59:02] <sysmonk> oblio_: how big is your sallary?
[20:59:08] <oblio_> how big is my celery?
[20:59:13] <oblio_> isnt that a little upfront?
