[00:47:38] <shasta> encrypted maildir? wtf is that?
[00:48:55] <necroforest> postfix delivers mail to ~/Maildir/ ..
[00:49:00] <necroforest> can you have it encrypt the mail in there
[00:49:12] <rob0> Maildir on an encrypted FS volume? Sure, if the FS is mounted before Postfix delivers.
[00:49:15] <necroforest> i.e. so someone with root can't snoop around
[00:49:33] <cos> I've got a linux box running postfix 2.2 with mailbox_command = /usr/bin/procmail  - when procmail fails to deliver, I don't see an error.  anyone know how I can get procmail to log what it does?  (I don't see a procmail.log anywhere)
[00:49:51] <cos> necro: someone with root can get at postfix's config and arrange a way to see what's being delivered regardless
[00:49:56] *** BuenGenio has quit IRC
[00:50:08] <rob0> There's no way other than GPG/PGP to protect your mail against your postmaster.
[00:50:22] *** BuenGenio has joined #postfix
[00:50:29] <cos> necro: you want the mail itself to be encrypted, before it even arrives
[00:50:46] <rob0> correct
[00:51:08] *** shinao1 has quit IRC
[00:51:54] <rob0> cos, read the various procmail man pages, I think it is LOGFILE that you want.

[07:34:45] <the_5th_1heel> Hi. I have a  postfix setup where i have multiple postfix servers, and where mail can come in to any postfix server, and it will direct it to the correct one with the relevant mailbox, is this called a cluster?
[07:35:42] <growltiger> you betcha
[07:36:31] <the_5th_1heel> mmm. Are there any howtos for setting up such a cluster? I have been looking around, but havent found anything... I need to clean up this mess of a mailserver I inherited

[08:40:06] <harlan> evening
[08:40:38] <Jense> morning :D
[08:42:27] <harlan> I've got a mailman list set up on a box, admin at site dot com.  I have a bunch of virtual domains, and for each of the virtual domains I create a virtual alias for
[08:42:41] <harlan> root at dom dot ain -> admin at site dot com
[08:43:10] <harlan> The problem is when I send email to root at dom dot ain postfix tries to deliver it to admin at dom dot ain instead of admin at site dot com.
[08:43:19] <harlan> Any ideas?

[11:03:27] <stockholm> of course.
[11:03:41] <stockholm> i was asking if there was a workaround. someone here might know
[11:04:04] <stockholm> i talked to the maintainer, he knows about it (but back then i did not ask about a workaround)
[11:04:04] <Roobarb> I don't personally, but I don't use Debian on any of my servers (if I can help it)
[11:04:55] <Roobarb> stockholm: the errors described in that ticket appear to relate to a 3rd party configuration tool for Postfix, not Postfix itself

[20:09:31] <stovenator> I'm having an issue with using procmail as a transport agent
[20:09:48] <stovenator> should a mail to multiple recipients send a message to procmail for each recip?
[20:10:13] *** loddafnir has joined #postfix
[20:10:40] <stovenator> using postfix 2.3.3
[20:11:34] <QuickGold> I tried to login into squirrelmail using a user and got the message "ERROR: Connection dropped by IMAP server.
[20:11:34] <QuickGold> ".  I checked /var/log/maillog and found this: Nov 25 19:09:27 alpha imapd: chdir pokershark.com/matt/: No such file or directory
[20:11:47] <QuickGold> anyone know what I need to do to fix this?
[20:15:58] <Haris_> how good is http://www.maiamailguard.com/ for adding to postfix's setup?
[20:16:11] <stovenator> quickgold: likely an issue with your IMAP server and nothing to do with postfix
[20:16:24] <rob0> I've never tried Maia, but it does look interesting to me.
[20:16:29] <QuickGold> stovenator: isn't the imap server part of postfix?
[20:16:38] <rob0> So Haris_, check it out and let us know.
[20:16:43] <stovenator> nope, either Cyrus, or dovecot, or ...
[20:16:47] <rob0> !imap
[20:16:47] <knoba> rob0: "imap" : IMAP is an application layer Internet protocol that allows a client (MUA) to access mailboxes on a remote server (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IMAP). Postfix does not provide IMAP (or POP3) service; see !courier or !dovecot for common IMAP/POP3 choices.
[20:17:27] <Haris_> I'm going to make a point of it
[20:18:29] *** blackflag has joined #postfix
[20:20:13] *** w1ll has joined #postfix
[20:22:22] <rob0> stovenator: the typical use of procmail is as a per-user LDA with local(8) users.
[20:22:36] *** tombar has quit IRC
[20:22:51] <stovenator> rob0: I'm using a transport map, with certain domain having their transport agent set to procmail
[20:23:04] <rob0> I found that local, on its own, does most of what I would use procmail for.
[20:23:21] <stovenator> I see in the logfile that procmail is being initiated multiple times, (one for each recipient)
[20:23:46] <stovenator> but procmail is only being run once per email (not once per recipient)
[20:25:03] <rob0> I guess my point is that you're trying to force a round peg into a square hole. Whilst I am sure it can be done, I don't recommend it.
[20:25:44] <stovenator> using procmail delivery is a square hole?
[20:28:33] *** hparker has joined #postfix
[20:32:16] <rob0> "The typical use of procmail is as a per-user LDA with local(8) users." That's how it was designed to be used. Invocation by local(8) as the recipient user, not via pipe(8) as default_privs or other designated user.
[20:33:08] <stovenator> is that in man 8 local ?
[20:33:45] <rob0> I guess my REAL point is that I'm not answering your question, I am just commenting that I don't like the design of what you're trying to do. :)
[20:33:51] <stovenator> oh
[20:33:52] <stovenator> :-)
[20:34:04] <stovenator> I am perfectly willing to switch to local
[20:34:18] <rob0> that would make it much easier
[20:34:26] <Dominian> local or dovecot
[20:34:37] <Dominian> if you're using dovecot that is
[20:34:45] <stovenator> my concern is having mail to local unix accounts separate ... and wanting that local delivery that isn't using procmail
[20:36:12] <rob0> I don't use mailbox_command any more (I did, years ago.) Any user who wants/needs procmail can use a .forward file. And if your mail users don't have shell access, YOU can manage their .forward files.
[20:36:19] <w1ll> I currently have 3 ips bound to 1 nic (eth0 1.1.1.1, eth0:1 1.1.1.2, eth0:2 1.1.1.3). I'd like to know if there's a way to make postfix use each of these ips when sending. I've looked around, but I'm not sure if I just don't know what to ask google or if it can't be done.
[20:37:51] <stovenator> rob0 : sounds good.
[20:38:53] <rob0> (just be sure that each user owns and can read it, of course)

[21:58:14] <rob0> !loopback
[21:58:15] <knoba> rob0: "loopback" : 'Mail loops back to myself' means that your Postfix wanted to send out the mail to the internet but then discovered that the DNS says your mail server should be responsible. Most likely you forgot to list your domain in mydestination or virtual_(alias|mailbox)_domains

[22:17:17] <rhalff> hi any tips on how to keep postfix configuration files synchronized across mailservers on many different locations ?
[22:18:12] <rhalff> can a main.cf include a script or something like that ?
[22:18:34] <rhalff> which generates the parameters
[22:19:11] <roe_> you can store most of the params in a db
[22:19:51] <QuickGold> Isn't there somewhere on a linux box to set the default MTA to postfix, as opposed to sendmail?
[22:20:12] <roe_> you have sendmail and postfix installed?
[22:20:26] <roe_> or are you confusing the sendmail cli command
[22:20:28] <QuickGold> postfix installed, sendmail disabled
[22:20:44] <QuickGold> roe_: in /var/log/maillog, im seeing entries for sendmail
[22:20:51] <QuickGold> so im thinking some apps are trying to use sendmail still
[22:21:41] <roe_> some apps call /usr/bin/sendmail or wherever that command is on your system.The Postfix sendmail(1) command implements the Postfix to Sendmail com?
[22:21:41] <roe_>        patibility interface.
[22:22:12] <QuickGold> so basically there is no "switch" to toggle?
[22:22:17] <roe_> correct
[22:22:21] <QuickGold> thank you
[22:23:12] <rhalff> parameter values can come from a db I think, not the parameter itself like 'smtpd_send_restrictions'
[22:23:44] <roe_> not that I know of, but nor are the list of parameters dynamic
[22:25:32] <rhalff> but things like smtpd_sender_restrictions = reject_rbl_client zen.spamhaus.org, many other rbl's, ....
[22:25:51] <rhalff> could I translate those settings to be read from a database table ?

[22:42:41] <jeward> Yes, sasl.
[22:43:10] <roe_> cyrus sasl or dovecot sasl?
[22:43:21] <jeward> Dovecot.
[22:43:38] <jeward> Dovecot is working.  I can see the imap mailbox.
[22:43:51] <jeward> But I can't send out via postfix.
[22:43:59] <Dominian> what's the error?
[22:44:02] <roe_> ok, now you have a fully formed queestion, I use cyrus, don't know too much about dovecot, pastbinning some logs will probably help
[22:44:20] <jeward> The SMTP server ?smtp.vazio.com? rejected the password for user ?jeward at vazio dot com?
