[01:07:46] <kar> Hi all, I'm new to the channel. I'm looking for some finishing-touch help to get emails from localhost sent to a friendly email client via POP3. I'm stuck at configuring the POP3 account. What's the email name, localhost? That fails email format edits.
[01:08:03] *** AwayML is now known as AndyML
[01:09:05] <growltiger> postfix is not a pop3 server
[01:09:16] <growltiger> you probably have cyrus or dovecot for that
[01:10:11] <kar> guess I'm in the wrong place ;-)     Any ideas? I'm trying to get MacOSX to send my localhost emails to Thunderbird. I've got it sending mails to my terminal mail program

[01:19:32] <kar> are emails from localhost sent to something@localhost? localhost@something?
[01:26:00] <growltiger> user@host
[01:30:45] <kar> thanks. How do you get that into a client? I get "Please enter a valid email address"
[01:31:45] <growltiger> user@localhost is valid
[01:32:42] *** Tykling has left #postfix
[01:34:14] <kar> Gmail doesn't know that, wants ".com"
[01:34:54] <growltiger> i though you wanted osx to send local emails to thunderbird
[01:35:04] <growltiger> what does gmail have to do with this?
[01:39:49] <xpoint> growltiger, see smtpd_generic_maps
[01:40:30] <xpoint> user@localhost is valid on localhost does not mean gmail should accept mail from localhost :)
[01:41:24] <xpoint> so map: user@localhost user at gmail dot com in smtpd_generic_maps, postmap it and done :)
[01:42:14] <xpoint> oh sorry if it was kar that asked
[01:43:01] *** nonsequitir has joined #postfix
[01:45:02] <kar> I'm using gmail to set up an external pop3 account. I got farther with thunderbird. Will try your next tips, thanks a lot
[01:50:17] <kar> xpoint, growltiger, thanks for your patience. I'm not really a sysadmin, I'm just trying :-).  I found this post excellent, I'm up to the point of configuring Thunderbird, and I don't know what the smtp settings should be. I don't really know what smpt_generic_maps is yet...

[02:40:54] <gbolte> alright I figured out how to make postfix not allow non tls encrypted sessions, however now I need to make it so that it dose not allow non-encrypted sessions from all but localhost
[02:40:56] <gbolte> :/
[02:41:09] <gbolte> but for some reason I doubt that is possible
[02:42:36] <gbolte> anyone have any insight?
[02:48:25] <shasta> erm
[02:48:51] <gbolte> hi shasta
[02:48:52] <gbolte> :)
[02:49:28] <shasta> let me get this straight
[02:49:45] <shasta> you want to only accept tls-encrypted connections?
[02:49:57] <shasta> is this a public MX?
[02:50:25] <gbolte> well only accept auth for tls connections
[02:50:38] <gbolte> so clients need to use tls to send mail
[02:50:53] <gbolte> with the exception of localhost
[02:51:24] <gbolte> people sending mail to us dont need tls
[02:51:33] <shasta> !smtpd_tls_auth_only
[02:51:34] <knoba> shasta: "smtpd_tls_auth_only" : When TLS encryption is optional in the Postfix SMTP server, do not announce or accept SASL authentication over unencrypted connections.
[02:52:04] <gbolte> right but the problem is there I need the exception of localhost
[02:52:47] <gbolte> because our webmail client dose not do tls to the smtp server which is no problem because its on the same box
[02:52:52] <shasta> it is quite common setup to put localhost into mynetworks (and permit_mynetworks in smtpd_recipient_restrictions)
[02:53:21] <gbolte> hmm I see
[02:53:40] <shasta> then, of course, you can send mail without authenticating from localhost
[02:54:08] <gbolte> hmm well we still want auth just not encryption
[02:54:11] <gbolte> :/

[04:18:07] <jmazaredo> can i change the smtp to port 587 of postfix?
[04:18:46] <hparker> Look for submission in master.cf
[04:21:22] <jmazaredo> #submission inet n - - - - smtpd     this one?
[04:22:39] <jmazaredo> i just uncomment it?
[04:22:50] *** mavrick61 has quit IRC
[04:23:24] <hparker> and reload postfix
[04:23:58] *** mavrick61 has joined #postfix
[04:24:19] <jmazaredo> it will send mail that is in queue?
[04:25:14] *** sahil has joined #postfix
[04:25:56] <jmazaredo> or am i wrong. my isp is blocking port 25 can i use 587 to talk to other servers?
[04:26:06] <jmazaredo> instead of 25
[04:27:00] <hparker> not usually, submission allows people to submit mail to your server from their MUAs when they can't on 25
[04:27:43] <jmazaredo> so from my server then to yahoo/gmail/hotmail server it is still port 25
[04:27:52] <jmazaredo> nomore no less
[04:28:08] <jmazaredo> server to server = 25
[04:30:11] <hparker> anything other than 25 usually requires authentication so you can relay through it... If ISP blocks outbound 25 you can either relay through them or get a VPS or something
[04:31:31] <jmazaredo> thanks
[04:32:00] <hparker> Or a business class connection so it's not blocked
[04:32:15] <hparker> VPS might be a cheaper alternative
[04:32:26] <hparker> Depends on the ISP you have

[07:59:50] <justdave> is there a way I can block inbound mail for that domain that doesn't come from the external MX service without blocking mail for the other domains it serves?

[12:32:18] <buc0vat> is there any command or so to clear queue?
[12:32:19] <IcyPolecat> Roobarb: actually I want to do it per domain (multi domain relay - some have AV and SA others just have SA)
[12:33:01] <Roobarb> IcyPolecat: I can't think of a good reason to bypass Anti-Virus, but either way, look for the virus_lovers_maps setting in amavisd.conf
[12:33:55] <IcyPolecat> Roobarb: ok - so it's can be done at the amavis level - brilliant. Oh and the main reason to bypass AV is that some of the domains end point MTAs run exactly the same AV as us - no point in wasting resources on the relay if not needed!
[12:34:20] <Roobarb> IcyPolecat: assuming they keep their signatures up to date
[12:34:46] <IcyPolecat> Roobarb: true - but it's their call not ours. They decide not to use our AV so ...
[12:34:53] <Roobarb> cpu is cheap and the delys is only in the order of seconds, so it's a worty thign to do imho
[12:35:51] <IcyPolecat> CPU ceases to be cheap when you're running a couple of 100 thou mails an hour through it but I personally agree - belt and braces. However, the powers that be are not convinced
[12:36:27] <Roobarb> thinking about this, I think the virus_lovers_maps don't work the way you want
[12:36:49] <Roobarb> messages get scanned regardless, but that map says whether to forward infectd mail onwards
[12:37:36] <IcyPolecat> Roobarb: I didn't think there was a way to do it. Hence wanted to run 2 instances of amavis and just switch the transports on and off as needed

[14:04:22] <vykarian> Hi guys! Is there a way to postfix+virtualdomain works with .forward on user "home"? (i.e. /home/vmail/domain.example/user at domain dot example/.forward)
[14:06:51] <sysmonk> in a very extreeme situation where you have nss set up to have system users with that kind of homedir and using postfix with local(8) delivery agent that can be achieved....
[14:07:46] *** arj has joined #postfix
[14:08:12] <arj> can anyone tell me a tutorial or website (i don't know the correct keywords)
[14:08:14] <arj> for
[14:08:33] <arj> content filtering for emails, such that emails are delivered into specific imap folders?
[14:08:45] <arj> i tried google: postfix content filter imap folders
[14:12:41] <arj> anyone? :)
[14:15:01] <rob0> vy, it works with virtual alias domains, with addresses going to Unix users.
[14:16:17] *** denis_ has joined #postfix
[14:16:18] <sysmonk> rob0: i was looking at the /home/vmail/domain/user@domain/ stuff
[14:16:24] <rob0> arj, no tutorial, but I have done it with amavisd-new, appending +spam to the username, and ~/.forward+spam files.
[14:16:33] <vykarian> should I create a local user for each vuser@vdomain that I pretend to run with .forward ?
[14:16:37] <sysmonk> that can be achieved with system users having that custom homedir
[14:16:46] <vykarian> hmm
[14:16:53] <vykarian> yeah, make sense..
[14:16:56] <arj> rob0: so how did you do that?
[14:17:02] <sysmonk> vykarian: why do you need to have the .forward at all?
[14:17:17] <vykarian> run ask (http://a-s-k.sourceforge.net)
[14:17:23] <arj> ah ok now I got that, that is npt what i want
[14:17:36] <vykarian> I ran qmail until last week..
[14:18:00] <rob0> arj, recipient_delimiter on the Postfix side, and I just read through the amavisd config file.
[14:18:02] <Roobarb> qmail = fail
[14:18:35] <vykarian> btw, if somebody can give me some suggestion about a similar program that do what ask does I would be glad..

[19:34:13] <voidwarranty> and my users are having me forward spam apparently. i want just the forwarding accounts to get blocked
[19:34:57] <voidwarranty> they get spammed. they have me forward it to their yahoo account. IP got black listed. no problem as long as i can have nonforwarded mail sent off another IP
[19:35:23] <Dominian> I wouldn't forward freakin' spam
[19:35:26] <Dominian> Tell them to piss off :)
[19:35:54] <voidwarranty> heh they're paying clients who're getting spammed and i'm not in the business of filtering their email
[19:36:12] <voidwarranty> last thing i need is to filter the wrong message and have a client calling bitchig
[19:36:33] <rob0> Maybe they're not paying enough.
[19:36:51] <Dominian> ahh
[19:36:56] <voidwarranty> so no ideas on postfix configuratin though?
[19:36:59] <Dominian> voidwarranty: move it to google apps and let google handle it :P
[19:38:13] <voidwarranty> right. i run a large operation with many domains. i dont control their DNS in all cases. not happening
[19:38:39] <seekwill> How large?
[19:39:12] <voidwarranty> *sigh* apparently no one has a clue on how to confgure postfix for this
[19:39:25] <seekwill> Maybe you're going about it wrong
[19:39:56] <seekwill> The problem with forwarding spam off just one IP is when the ISP starts blocking your entier subnet
[19:40:09] <seekwill> Oh. 1.2.3.4 is spamming me. Let's block 1.2.3.0/24
[19:40:10] <voidwarranty> hmm
[19:40:17] <seekwill> THAT happens
[19:40:27] <voidwarranty> fair enough
[19:40:51] <voidwarranty> i'm gonna still try to see if postfix can be configured that way
[19:41:16] <seekwill> Postfix doesn't play well like that.
[19:41:23] <voidwarranty> hmm
[19:41:23] <seekwill> You might want to run a postfix instance for each IP
[19:41:28] <rob0> Sure it can, just set up transports
[19:41:41] <rob0> but as pointed out, it will not solve the problem
[19:41:56] <rob0> your warranty is void :)
[19:42:50] <voidwarranty> hm i'll look into transports, thanks
[19:43:12] <voidwarranty> just so i can say i did something productive for the day

[22:36:28] <SARGuy> hey folks: anyone have any idea why some address' would be rejected if not in the virtual address table but some would give a "Too MAny Hops" message...  both to the same domain
[22:37:39] *** BBishop has quit IRC
[22:37:50] <rob0> !too_many_hops
[22:37:51] <knoba> rob0: "too_many_hops" : In brewing, it means you should add more barley. In Postfix it means you have a mail routing loop. No machine in the loop considers itself the final destination for the looping mail.
[22:37:57] *** BBishop has joined #postfix
[22:41:22] <SARGuy> Actually, in brewing too many hops would only change the flavor of the beer, either to the benefit or detriment, depending on the recipe.....  sorry, family owns a brewery...  In postfix, however, it's a little more tricky...  I've accepted that this is the case, however, i'm not able to isolate the problem.  especially considering the same domain (different user) is able to get mail.
[22:42:03] *** havvg has quit IRC
[22:43:55] *** eanxgeek_ has joined #postfix
[22:47:03] <rob0> A loop means A thinks the mail should go to B, and B thinks the mail should go to A. Postfix stops the loop when there are too many Received: headers detected.
[22:48:40] <SARGuy> i understand all that...  but why would it only do it for a single (or just a few) address' in a domain?  FYI, http://pastebin.com/m637c82ad for specific info...
[22:49:02] <rob0> You probably messed around with transport_maps.
[22:49:36] <SARGuy> unfortunately, this problem pre-dates me, I'm just trying to clean up the mess
[22:49:59] <rob0> Oh, that's looping between Postfix and amavisd on the same machine.
[22:50:11] <rob0> !filter
[22:50:12] <knoba> rob0: Error: "filter" is not a valid command.
[22:50:17] <rob0> !filter_readme
[22:50:18] <knoba> rob0: "filter_readme" : http://www.postfix.org/FILTER_README.html :: After-queue content filtering
[22:50:38] <rob0> !content_filter
[22:50:39] <knoba> rob0: "content_filter" : a configuration parameter in the main.cf: The name of a mail delivery transport that filters mail after it is queued.
[22:50:51] <rob0> !receive_override_options
[22:50:51] <knoba> rob0: "receive_override_options" : (default: empty) - Enable or disable recipient validation, built-in content filtering, or address mapping. Typically, these are specified in master.cf as arguments for the smtpd(8), qmqpd(8) or pickup(8) daemons. See: http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#receive_override_options
[22:51:08] <SARGuy> wouldn't that affect all mail delivery?
[22:52:15] *** Izlots has quit IRC
[22:59:21] <rob0> I think the amavisd-new documentation has an example of receive_override_options on prefilter and reinjection smtpd's.
[23:00:01] <SARGuy> i'm looking at that now...  but it still doesn't make sense that most mail is delivered, through Amavis, just fine...
[23:04:19] <SARGuy> Let me just make sure I know what's going on here so I can figure it out...  Message delivered to Postfix -> Postfix deliveres msg to Amavis -> Amavis delivers message back to postfix -> Postfix looks at headers and says 5.4.0 Too Many Hops -> Message fails...  That seem about right?

[23:20:21] <rob0> Probably means that Postfix sends it back through Amavis, until there are too many Received: headers detected.
[23:21:04] <SARGuy> hmmm
[23:21:14] <SARGuy> very strange indeed

[23:29:17] *** ehird has joined #postfix
[23:29:37] <ehird> Is there an easy way just to tell postfix "Run this command if new mail comes in to this address"? Still making it go to the mbox.
[23:31:54] <rob0> .forward file (offer void where taxed or prohibited, or if you're using virtual(8) delivery)
[23:32:27] <rob0> also, aliases(5) (same disclaimer)
[23:34:45] <ehird> Not sure if I'm using virtual(8)...
[23:34:51] <ehird> Also, any docs on those? Been trying to find some.
[23:37:19] <rob0> um, those which? I referenced 2 man pages already. Dot-forwards are somewhat covered in local(8).
[23:38:08] <rob0> Every Postfix source tarball comes with a complete copy of the HTML documentation, too.
[23:38:39] <ehird> OK, thanks
[23:39:21] <ehird> ah
[23:39:22] <ehird> so
[23:39:34] <ehird> echo "/home/foo/my_command" >/home/foo/.forward
[23:39:41] <ehird> will execute my_command when a mail is recieved. OK, thanks
[23:39:47] <ehird> does it get the message as stdin or something?
[23:42:11] <rob0> stdin is right, your syntax probably not.
