[01:05:26] <c0rleone> how do i fix that? ive already try newaliases :|
[01:06:29] <adaptr> postfix is normally pointed at the Unix default /etc/aliases
[01:06:43] <adaptr> keep it there unless you know exactly what you're doing
[01:07:51] <deface> adaptr: based on distro
[01:08:17] <deface> c0rleone: check the alias's line in main.cf, make sure that path exists, you'll need to run newaliases if you edit the aliases file
[01:08:26] <deface> or manually postmap /path/to/aliases
[01:10:01] *** loddafni1 has quit IRC
[01:11:41] <adaptr> does newaliases even look at main.cf ?
[01:11:51] <adaptr> I would think it uses the compiled-in default location
[01:15:45] *** mrichman_ has joined #postfix
[01:17:43] <deface> no
[01:17:53] <deface> newaliases postmaps the local alias's file
[01:18:09] <deface> adaptr: there is no 'default' location in linux
[01:19:30] <adaptr> all settings in main.cf have compiled-in defaults
[01:20:28] <deface> they have postfix defaults

[03:02:14] <nofilicity> Oop just got it
[03:02:38] <deface> always 777
[03:02:42] <nofilicity> Yea
[03:04:32] <sahil> uh, no.
[03:04:42] <sahil> don't 'always 777' -- that's likely to get you hax0rificated quite easily. :P
[03:07:59] <deface> sahil: ;)
[03:10:57] <nofilicity> I followed http://howtoforge.com/virtual-users-and-domains-with-postfix-ubuntu-7.10 to set up a virtual mail system using a database, however, it seems I cannot send or recieve mail..
[03:10:57] *** deuterium has quit IRC
[03:12:48] <nofilicity> and there's nothing in mail.log, .warn or .err
[03:14:48] <rob0> !tutorial
[03:14:49] <knoba> rob0: "tutorial" : A very common problem is that some people prefer to follow a step-by-step tutorial that shows them how to setup their mail server without reading the documentation or understanding what they are doing. If something goes wrong, they have no clue whatsoever about where to look for hints, and they sometimes decide to start from scratch using a different tutorial. This is not The Proper Way.
[03:15:21] <nofilicity> Definitely describes me :>
[03:15:55] <nofilicity> How can I begin walking the path of the proper way?
[03:16:39] <rob0> Well, TBH I wasn't impressed by that howtoforge article when I skimmed it once.
[03:16:59] <nofilicity> I just want to use multiple domains on 1 server :>
[03:17:00] <rob0> Sounds like from this point you need to understand how Unix filesystem permissions work.
[03:18:12] <rob0> I would use !basic and !virtual as starting points. Use local(8) delivery for virtual_alias_domains/maps.
[03:18:18] *** hparker has quit IRC
[03:18:35] <nofilicity> ok
[03:18:36] <nofilicity> Thanks
[03:18:40] <nofilicity> !basic
[03:18:41] <knoba> nofilicity: "basic" : http://www.postfix.org/BASIC_CONFIGURATION_README.html : a good starting place for Postfix beginners, many common questions are answered here.
[03:19:39] <rob0> The word "virtual" has two distinct usages in Postfix. Virtual MAILBOX and v. ALIAS domains/maps.

[03:45:20] <unomystEz> hello
[03:45:24] <nofilicity> fixed rob0 :}
[03:46:03] <unomystEz> how do I precreate SENT folders in Maildir? is there a postfix setting?  or do email clients usually just store sent mail locally?
[03:46:52] <deface> usually created once a message is 'sent'
[03:46:57] <deface> first message should create it
[03:46:58] <unomystEz> ah
[03:47:02] *** nphase_ has joined #postfix
[03:47:19] <unomystEz> well actually with this Opera email client, there is a setting to set the SENT folder, but there are no options
[03:47:27] <unomystEz> i was thinking because it's not created on the server in the Maildir yet
[03:47:28] <deface> usually the client creates the folder
[03:47:47] <unomystEz> In Opera it's a combobox selection, and it's not editable
[03:47:56] <deface> yeah, i dont use opera
[03:47:59] <unomystEz> heh
[03:48:03] <unomystEz> which email client do you recommend?
[03:48:07] <unomystEz> i haven't found a good one yet
[03:48:11] <deface> thunderbird .. evolution
[03:48:14] *** hparker has quit IRC
[03:48:19] <deface> 2 decent ones
[03:48:26] <unomystEz> evolution is the gnome one right?
[03:48:32] <deface> yup
[03:48:40] <deface> are you gnome or kde ?
[03:48:41] <unomystEz> yeah it's  been around for a while
[03:48:45] <unomystEz> awesome
[03:48:49] <unomystEz> awesome wm
[03:48:53] <unomystEz> but i have gnome libs installed
[03:49:10] <deface> kde is bloated imo, im xfce4
[03:49:12] <unomystEz> but I also use a windows box sometimes, and I would prefer to get used to one email client
[03:49:21] <unomystEz> so maybe I'll try thunderbird
[03:49:32] <unomystEz> deface: awesome is one of the leanest WM's =)
[03:49:36] *** nphase_ has quit IRC
[03:49:40] <deface> lame name
[03:49:42] <deface> lol
[03:49:51] <unomystEz> awesome is awesome =P
[03:50:21] <unomystEz> and before I make this mail server live, is there a need to do any post configuration such as SPV or something?
[03:50:34] <unomystEz> I forget what it's called
[03:50:40] *** Nockian has quit IRC
[03:50:41] <unomystEz> but something that validates the mailserver?
[03:51:06] <unomystEz> some kind of key verification on the domain name or something
[03:51:13] <unomystEz> or should I not bother
[03:51:21] <unomystEz> i think we had issues sending to some mail servers in the past
[03:51:24] <unomystEz> like hotmail or yahoo
[03:51:52] <deface> eww, one of those lame tiling wm's
[03:51:57] <unomystEz> hahaha
[03:52:04] <unomystEz> hey, you're a freebsd user as well =)
[03:52:09] <unomystEz> deface: I need that tiling wm on my laptop
[03:52:10] <deface> DKIM ?
[03:52:18] <unomystEz> DKIM?
[03:52:20] <unomystEz> dunno
[03:52:37] <deface> yeah, ive got a few fbsd boxes, shell boxes
[03:52:41] <deface> mostly a gentoo man
[03:52:47] <unomystEz> oh jesus
[03:52:49] <unomystEz> sorry to hear that
[03:52:51] <unomystEz> =P
[03:53:05] <unomystEz> that's like both ends of the spectrum
[03:53:23] <deface> its ok, most people are scared of the unknow
[03:53:25] <deface> unknown*
[03:53:31] <unomystEz> pfft
[03:53:35] <unomystEz> try Arch Linux
[03:53:37] <deface> ill place you back in the crown
[03:53:38] <unomystEz> much more FreeBSD like
[03:53:45] <deface> ive ran it
[03:53:53] <deface> nice package manager, bout it though
[03:54:00] <unomystEz> anyway..
[03:54:01] <deface> s/crown/crowd *
[03:54:02] <unomystEz> heh
[03:54:39] <deface> neway - http://svn.fluxlabs.net/postfix/trunk/main.cf
[03:54:52] <deface> my main.cf, if yah wanna peep some of the options for anti-spam/uce
[03:55:09] <unomystEz> deface: is it really necessary to use DKIM for a corporate email server?
[03:55:14] <unomystEz> can I get away without it?
[03:55:19] <deface> no, but thats what you were asking about
[03:55:25] <unomystEz> ok
[03:55:28] <deface> <unomystEz> some kind of key verification on the domain name or something
[03:55:39] <deface> few things to look out for - ...
[03:55:43] <deface> make sure your ip isnt dynamic
[03:55:48] <unomystEz> check
[03:55:52] <deface> or you'll get blacklisted in bout 10 min
[03:55:58] <deface> not an open relay
[03:56:00] <unomystEz> check
[03:56:08] <deface> its safer to relay to a bigger mailserver .. such as your isp
[03:56:55] <unomystEz> ok the last thing I need to configure is SMTP AUTH + TLS
[03:57:06] <unomystEz> should I run SMTP AUTH + TLS on 25?
[03:57:11] <unomystEz> i see some people configure it on 2525
[03:57:17] <deface> 993 ? for tls
[03:57:18] <unomystEz> and leave SMTP on 25 as normal
[03:57:21] <deface> i believe thats the default port
[03:57:24] <unomystEz> 993 is IMAP TLS I believe
[03:57:28] <deface> yeah
[03:57:40] <deface> most do imap, pop3 is too client dependent
[03:57:54] <deface> and if your corporate, im assuming outlook, which limits your pst to 2 gigs per
[03:58:05] <deface> before you see corruption
[03:58:08] <unomystEz> heh
[03:58:13] <unomystEz> gotta love that limitation
[03:58:38] <unomystEz> have you tried roundcube?
[03:58:47] <unomystEz> I'm thinking about switching to it from squirrelmail
[03:58:53] <deface> yup, thats what i use on my mailservers
[03:58:57] <unomystEz> great
[04:00:00] <deface> doesnt have the options that sqmail has .. fetchmail, calendars ..etc
[04:00:06] <deface> but much nicer interface
[04:01:49] *** Nockian has joined #postfix
[04:04:50] <unomystEz> it seems that this roundcube I just set up is very slow
[04:04:55] <unomystEz> I wonder if it has to do with the configuration
[04:07:49] <deface> whatcha mean slow
[04:07:52] <deface> reponsiveness
[04:08:21] <sahil> squirrelmail is just fine; it lacks the bells and whistles that roundcube offers, but it just works (tm).
[04:13:44] <unomystEz> this roundcube always says in an AJAX box at the top "Checking for new messages..."

[07:13:53] *** kuja has joined #postfix
[07:14:46] <kuja> Hello.  I was wondering how I could go about debugging an issue in my Postfix setup that would prevent a 220 from being sent at all.  I can't seem to locate any log file on my system either (nothing in /var/log).
[07:15:22] <kuja> I am testing with telnet (e.g., telnet localhost 25) and the connection gets established just fine, but Postfix is silent, no banner.. nothing.
[07:15:46] <sysmonk> new installation?
[07:16:21] <kuja> It's pretty new.. I mean I installed it, set up MySQL virtual aliases and mailboxes, then I just left it alone for about a month.
[07:16:34] <sysmonk> ghm
[07:16:38] <kuja> I wasn't using it.
[07:16:50] <sysmonk> my first guess would be rebuilding aliases file
[07:16:50] <kuja> It's not something I set up and tested to see if it worked from the beginning, I'm just jumping back to it now.
[07:17:03] <sysmonk> that's the usual problem for postfix not showing a banner
[07:17:18] <f3ew> !debug
[07:17:19] <knoba> f3ew: "debug" : http://www.postfix.org/DEBUG_README.html : a good starting point for how to deal with problems and to report information to those who might help. Post your information in a pastebin such as http://pastebin.ca/ or http://rafb.net/paste/ .
[07:17:24] <sysmonk> and the logs issue - check your syslog daemon
[07:17:40] <kuja> I.. honestly don't think I have one running.
[07:17:40] <sysmonk> f3ew: "i can't seem to locate any log file on my system"
[07:17:41] <sysmonk> ;)
[07:18:04] <sysmonk> kuja: then that's your problem
[07:18:19] <kuja> May I paste 3 lines in the channel?
[07:19:10] <sysmonk> maybe use a pastebin, sometimes wen pasting 3 lines it makes into 6 lines ...
[07:19:18] <kuja> Sure.
[07:19:28] <sysmonk> when*
[07:19:34] <kuja> http://rafb.net/p/hoNude55.html
[07:19:52] <kuja> My virtual_mailbox_domains, virtual_alias_maps and virtual_mailbox_maps lines.
[07:20:01] <sysmonk> oh my, i see 'Nude55' in the pastebin url :P
[07:20:07] <kuja> lol
[07:21:00] <kuja> Oh, wait.
[07:21:08] <kuja> I see what might be wrong with my MySQL virtual-accounts.cf configuration.
[07:21:16] <kuja> Bad hostname.  Let's see if changing that fixes it =)
[07:21:16] <sysmonk> anyway, start your syslog daemon and check the logs, my guess would be a missing alaises database (aliases, not virtual aliases)
[07:22:18] <sysmonk> k, i'm outto $workplace
[07:22:24] <kuja> Bye, thanks for the help
[07:22:33] <kuja> Hm, doesn't seem I have syslogd installed =p

I would like mydomain.com does not appear in there (to prevent spam). But Postfix should direct a mail to "user at mydomain dot com" when a mail to "username" is sent.
[10:13:15] <groton> Actually i noticed that if i change to "myhostname = dummydomain.com" in main.cf i get what i want for the first part of my question above, but then i the second part does not work (mail directed to "user" are sent to "user at dummydomain dot com" instead :/
[10:14:14] *** chris1205 has joined #postfix
[10:16:02] <kuja> Is there any reason why Postfix would deliver my mail to /var/mail/{USER} when I clearly specified a virtual_mailbox_base?
[10:16:51] <xmb> maybe its not for unix users w/o @dom
[10:17:17] <kuja> It's configured to read accounts from MySQL
[10:17:28] <xmb> dunno anyway
[10:17:53] <sysmonk> kuja: maybe because it delivers via local and not virtual?
[10:18:10] <kuja> How do I check for sure? (sorry for sounding incapable)
[10:18:12] <sysmonk> virtual aliases/domains != virtual users
[10:18:31] <sysmonk> kuja: pastebin an example of a delivery ( log part)
[10:18:43] <kuja> Hm.. you're probably right.
[10:18:54] <kuja> I just tried sending an e-mail to a user who exist in the mysql table but not on the system
[10:19:00] <kuja> And it failed with "unknown user"
[10:20:26] <kuja> sysmonk: How can I make it not use local transport, and instead virtual..
[10:20:47] <sysmonk> make it virtual ;)
[10:21:06] <sysmonk> put it in virtual_mailbox_domains
[10:21:12] <sysmonk> and remove from mydestination
[10:22:09] <kuja> Ah :o
[10:22:43] <kuja> sysmonk: It's in mydestination because it's $myhostname
[10:26:40] <sysmonk> didn't your moma tell ya to use fqdn for servers?
[10:26:46] <sysmonk> like server.domain.com
[10:26:47] <sysmonk> :)

[10:32:41] <munga_> hello. I've a trasport that relays everything from foo.localnet.org to smtp:mail.localnet.org. It is working for most addresses bar at foo dot localnet.org, but not for all, failing with a "user unknonw in local recipient table" . IS the local receipent table supposed to be looked up if I've a transport ?
[10:33:18] <sysmonk> munga_: yes
[10:34:26] <munga_> sysmonk: ok... but this means that all the local recepients on foo.localnet.org must be local receients on the gateway ...
[10:34:59] <munga_> I want to use a transport to delegate everything to foo.localnet.org ...
[10:35:37] <f3ew> then remove the domain from mydestination
[10:35:42] <f3ew> and add it to relay_domains
[10:35:46] <munga_> !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[17:03:15] <sebastiandeutsch> elho: trying to figure out how virtual_alias_maps work through mysql, created a simple query but it still returns that the user is unknown
[17:03:30] <rob0> !postmapq
[17:03:31] <knoba> rob0: "postmapq" : You can check your lookups with the postmap command. Example: if you defined "transport_maps = mysql:/etc/postfix/transport.cf" you may check this mapping by running "postmap -q domain.com mysql:/etc/postfix/transport.cf" and see if it works.
[17:03:42] <rob0> seb^^
[17:04:03] <mrichman> If example.com has mandatory TLS, and example.com is in my list of relay_domains, how can I test that a message gets successfully relayed via TLS to example.com?

[17:05:09] <rob0> Dominian, if we had a buck for every question here that the answer is "read your logs" ...
[17:05:34] <Dominian> rob0: hehe
[17:05:35] <mrichman> i.e. telnet example.com 25, or openssl s_client, etc?

[18:15:09] <raker4058> Hi, I run a server that spam filters for domains in which I don't have the user lists for.  I would like to drop/delete messages that end up "User Unknown" after attempting transport... is there a config option to do this?
[18:17:46] <mattx86> what's the maximum message limit you guys think is fair and/or standard?
[18:18:39] <mattx86> jelly: yeah, I believe that got it.  I tried a 40MB test file and it seems it went through.
[18:19:27] <jelly> mattx86: 20MB gross (14 net) seems reasonable

[18:25:51] <raker4058> I am attempting to move these customers from a legacy server not maintained by me that was setup without local user lists...
[18:26:08] <raker4058> I have 30 domains which don't want to move to a proper setup.

[18:39:45] <seekwill> Some ISPs block outgoing 25 (I think ALL should..)

[18:44:51] <cpm> since 37% of highway fatalities are caused by folks driving impaired, it follows that 63% are caused by sober drivers. Let's get these killers off the road!
[18:45:01] <JonMarkGo> Hm
[18:45:06] <JonMarkGo> How would I make postfix listen on port 26?
[18:45:12] <cpm> why?
[18:45:23] <JonMarkGo> Since I can't access 25
[18:45:35] * cpm sighs
[18:45:38] <lunaphyte_> in what way?
[18:45:40] <growltiger_> use submission
[18:45:48] <cpm> and what will making postfix listen on port 26 do for you?
[18:46:20] <cpm> JonMarkGo, what problem are you trying to solve.
[18:46:34] <cpm> changing the listening port of postfix won't accomplish much, will break what does work.
[18:47:07] <cpm> if you are trying to submit mail, and can't because the port is blocked upstream, then use submission, (which you should anyway).
[18:47:11] <cpm> !submission
[18:47:12] <knoba> cpm: Error: "submission" is not a valid command.
[18:47:34] <mrichman> that's 587/tcp, yes?
[18:47:47] <lunaphyte_> indeed
[18:48:10] <lunaphyte_> yanked directly from your services file, presumably.
[18:48:13] <cpm> mrichman, correect
[18:48:16] <cpm> mrichman, correct
[18:48:37] <JonMarkGo> Basically, my problem is that I can only access postfix from telnet
[18:48:42] <JonMarkGo> But my home computer is unable to reach it
[18:48:45] <cpm> just uncomment the (entire section) of the port 587 stuff in master.cf, then stop and start postfix. done.
[18:49:52] <seekwill> That doesn't sound right...
[18:50:09] <lunaphyte_> i think that description should be re-worded.

[18:55:09] <JonMarkGo> It always says it failed, even when I'm using my proper password
[18:55:53] <seekwill> What?
[18:55:56] <JonMarkGo> SASL LOGIN authentication failed: authentication failure
[18:58:20] <JonMarkGo> How can I properly investigate why it is failing?
[18:59:49] <lunaphyte_> man, you are all over the map.
[19:00:02] <JonMarkGo> Sorry, I figured out why I couldn't connect (local issues)
[19:00:09] <JonMarkGo> Now I can connect, and I am unable to authenticate

[19:41:58] <adaptr> where faint of heart === Exchange administrator
[19:42:01] <seekwill> With so many spammers these days, you're going to need a dedicated postmaster guy, or just out source it
[19:42:13] <seekwill> Exchange is a fine service :P
[19:42:36] <adaptr> yes, but any goof with half a year of computer experience can run it
[19:42:44] <adaptr> and I do mean total experience
[19:42:47] <seekwill> mrhavi: Companies like Message Labs can help you. They will be your edge MTA and allow you to send email and block spam/viruses, and work excellent with Exchange
[19:43:05] <seekwill> adaptr: That's the point, right?
[19:43:11] <mrhavi> hmmm well i was wanting to learn it
[19:43:19] <mrhavi> not outsource it
[19:43:35] <lunaphyte_> go for it.
[19:43:36] <seekwill> mrhavi: I wouldn't do it for your company until you learn it
[19:43:43] <mrhavi> just thought i could get help
[19:43:44] <lunaphyte_> set it up at home, and play with it and learn.
[19:43:50] <mrhavi> i know thats why i have a test lab at home
[19:43:52] <adaptr> seekwill: it's M$'s point
[19:44:16] <lunaphyte_> you can get lots of help here - but we don't do much hand holding or spoon feeding.
[19:44:17] <seekwill> mrhavi: Get the book "The Book of Postfix". That will help you with the MTA side of things. Yet sadly, that's about...10% of your adminstration problems.
[19:44:50] <mrhavi> interesting... so can you tell me why you would use postfix?
[19:45:05] <seekwill> Because I'm the guy you outsource too :P
[19:45:15] <lunaphyte_> eh - we're not really salesmen.
[19:45:30] <seekwill> lunaphyte: Which is why no one knows who I work for
[19:45:32] <mrhavi> haha
[19:45:40] <lunaphyte_> i'll rephrase that.  i'm not really a salesman.
[19:46:03] <mrhavi> well.. i guess i meant postfix over any other mta
[19:46:06] <seekwill> mrhavi: Spam/virus filtering, and delivery to major ISPs are going to be your biggest headaches
[19:46:24] <mrhavi> i like headaches

[19:47:46] <seekwill> It is the best book in the whole world
[19:47:52] <mrhavi> really

[19:48:09] <adaptr> treehugger!
[19:48:18] <seekwill> adaptr: Bedroom talk...
[19:48:29] <mrhavi> alright but the book of postfix
[19:48:43] <adaptr> yes, that's the one
[19:48:48] <mrhavi> thats the almighty book huh
[19:48:59] <seekwill> Yes
[19:50:40] <seekwill> mrhavi: Be prepared. If you're going to be hosting your own email, to be a dedicated postmaster
[19:50:49] <seekwill> (depending on how many users/mail/etc...)
[19:50:51] <JonMarkGo> I've dug into my logs more. the auth data is properly passed to postfix, which properly passes it to smtpauth, which properly passes it to authdameond, which never actually performs the expected sql query to look up the user data..
[19:51:12] <mrhavi> i guess my biggest problem guys is we had an issue 3 months ago where some guy did 50000 emails from his computer and we got blacklisted. its a capital company. Anyways huge issues with getting back to normal. it was bad

[19:56:27] <adaptr> that was sort of the point, obsolet-ey
[19:56:38] <mrhavi> adaptr.. why not.. very simple people need to tell the brokers what the deal is... and thats done every 2 days

[20:01:46] <chep> hello
[20:01:50] <growltiger> hi!
[20:01:51] <growltiger> wb
[20:01:56] <cite> This discussion is stupid. Apply limits when you realize you need them. Don't do premature optimization. Have a backup plan when your primary mailgatewy gets blacklsited.
[20:01:56] <mrhavi> cite........ 4k 5k 6k what does it matter.. the point is the have a list of brokers.. they need to contact them
[20:01:59] <chep> I have a stupid, close to FAQ problem with outbound mail with TLS enabled on debian lenny
[20:02:00] <chep>  things worked great with postfix up to 2.4 (including the second instance of saslauthd, private to postfix chroot)
[20:02:05] <chep> now I'm on postfix 2.5, I'm stuck with a "fatal: no SASL authentication mechanisms"
[20:02:10] <chep> I can still hit the backups for the last "known good" postfix-2.4.x_y.deb, but if there's something trivial I forgot, I'll gladly take the advice...
[20:02:32] <growltiger> you will have to recompile postfix with your chosen auth mechanism
[20:02:37] <chep> uh
[20:02:39] <chep> PAM ?
[20:02:45] <adaptr> mrhavi: so enable them to send out a single mail to a server-side mailing list, which will take care of all
[20:02:46] <sysmonk> er, what?
[20:02:50] <cite> chep: saslauthd with PAM authentication?
[20:02:56] <chep> yes cite, growl
[20:03:00] <sysmonk> growltiger: recompile postfix with chosen auth mechanism?!
[20:03:03] <chep> but it's compiled in the debian package already
[20:03:06] <adaptr> mrhavi: I think Exchange already does that
[20:03:06] <growltiger> oh
[20:03:11] <cite> chep: You are missing sasl2-modules.
[20:03:20] <seekwill> adaptr: (sorry, afk) 5GB in a single session? bah! Yeah there are. Legit bulk mailers. Think mailinglists for big companies like walmart, target, bofa...
[20:03:25] <mrhavi> cite i dont know where you came in.. im still learning.. i dont work with postfix.. and was asking a question or 2
[20:03:27] <growltiger> i had to install form source to get 2.5
[20:03:33] <chep> E: Couldn't find package sasl2-modules
[20:03:50] <mrhavi> exchange wont work with php that i understand

[20:04:51] <adaptr> mrhavi: and if your ISP blacklists you for sending a few thousand mails.. well, perhaps get a real ISP
[20:05:07] <mrhavi> like....
[20:05:29] <adaptr> I don't know, I am not in your situation
[20:05:30] <seekwill> mrhavi: You really should contract with a company that specializes in this
[20:05:35] <seekwill> There are many out there
[20:05:38] <adaptr> I cannot imagine my ISP having any say in what I do or do not send
[20:05:58] <kdog> why would the internal host I'm forwarding to get resolved to my external address when I telnet to it from the console and I get the internal server?
[20:06:02] <mrhavi> well i dont think it was the isp.. its was gmail.. yahoo. hotmail
[20:06:15] <chep> whoa, apt-file sure does have a TON of dependencies
[20:06:30] <adaptr> yes, and they complain because you send gazillions of email from a lousy home dynamic IP ?
[20:06:44] <adaptr> mrhavi: step one is to acquire a proper domain with a static net range
[20:06:46] <mrhavi> not this is a t3
[20:06:53] <seekwill> mrhavi: There's no one here that can help with that. That's purely an ISP relations issue. Get a  consultant :)

[20:08:48] <mrichman> thx
[20:09:14] <mrhavi> i was told in sending whatever amount of emails.. using senderid and domain keys when in place using say "postfix" i would not run into a problem

[20:12:30] *** cilly has joined #postfix
[20:12:44] <chep> cite: well; I don't care for having a complex *sql based auth backend if I can have something simple wrapped into TLS, for the purpose of very few users using evolution exclusively...
[20:13:16] <chep> cite: but I'll gladly take any reasonable alternative suggestions if you'd like to provide some..
[20:13:34] <cite> chep: I didn't know you had a small userbase.
[20:13:41] <chep> cite: np, I didn't tell
[20:14:13] <cite> chep: PLAIN/LOGIN auth is fine over TLS (well, if you don't use certificates generated by Debians old (and meanwhile patched) openssl libraries).
[20:14:44] <chep> cite: indeed, the SSL cert is recent (with a fresh private root cert put in on both sides)
[20:15:42] <chep> cite: back to my reqs; very few users: maintenance overhead is terribly expensive. Database a no-no, flat files well good enough. Not acceptable to have plain/login in cleartext on the wire. Full encryption of the outbound transaction a (meagre) plus over strong auth/cleartext
[20:16:12] <chep> seems to me that indeed plain+TLS is good enough for my purpose
