[00:05:50] <Azrael_-> hi
[00:06:34] <Azrael_-> to delete a file from the maildrop-queue is it enough to delete it from the according folder or would be more necessary? (postsuper isn't flexible enough)
[00:08:13] <Dominian> how is postsuper not flexible enough?
[00:08:33] <Azrael_-> postsuper -d {myid} maildrop
[00:08:53] <Dominian> that doesn't explain why it isn't flexible enough
[00:08:59] <Azrael_-> i have 12k ids in a file and dunno how to put them in the according place e.g. using xargs

[01:55:02] <elventails> hi -
[01:55:11] <elventails> i'm having trouble with the workaround isp mail setup on debian
[01:55:27] <elventails> when I'm doing a telnet localhost smtp to test authenticated smtp
[01:55:42] <elventails> I get a "Encryption required for requested authentication mechanism"
[01:55:54] <elventails> can anyone tell me what it means?
[01:56:11] <elventails> afaik I've enabled tls in postfix
[01:56:11] *** flaccid has left #postfix
[01:56:42] <elventails> and generated the certificate file for it..
[01:57:18] <rob0> You seem to have done that, indeed. But telnet(1) is not SSL-capable.
[01:57:58] <elventails> rob0: I'm pretty sure I set this up on another machine - and it returned correctly...
[01:58:03] <lennard> openssl is, thouch
[01:58:07] <lennard> though*
[01:58:16] <rob0> !openssl
[01:58:16] <knoba> rob0: Error: "openssl" is not a valid command.
[01:58:22] <rob0> !s_client
[01:58:23] <knoba> rob0: Error: "s_client" is not a valid command.
[01:58:29] *** havvg has quit IRC
[01:58:39] <rob0> See those two ^^ man pages.
[01:58:41] <lennard> openssl -starttls smtp -connect localhost:smtp
[01:58:51] <lennard> whoops, now I said it all :P
[01:59:03] <rob0> no, you left out s_client
[01:59:09] <lennard> oh
[01:59:14] <lennard> I did, didn't I
[01:59:25] <lennard> I get to blame it on 4 pints of guinness
[01:59:40] <rob0> Or better yet, just use a regular MUA like thunderbird to test.
[01:59:56] <lennard> true
[02:00:17] <lennard> if that doesn't work, openssl, if that doesn't work, testsaslauththingy
[02:00:45] <rob0> No, Signum's howto now uses Dovecot SASL.
[02:01:37] <lennard> oh
[02:01:41] <elventails> rob0: could you tell me why you think it doesn't work?
[02:01:41] <lennard> silly
[02:01:52] <elventails> or how to debug it?
[02:02:06] <lennard> ooh ooh I know!
[02:02:07] <elventails> I'm pretty sure it worked previously on another similar setup
[02:02:10] <lennard> checking the logs :P
[02:02:14] <elventails> and I did use telnet..
[02:05:48] *** githogori has quit IRC
[02:06:54] <rob0> You disregarded what I already told you.
[02:07:14] <elventails> rob0: that telnet is not SSL capable?
[02:07:30] <elventails> in that case - how can I test it?
[02:07:40] <rob0> answered!

[03:19:54] *** non-sequitir has quit IRC
[03:28:44] <Bullen> I have a quick question, if I want to set up my mail server to use a domain, do I have to set up some special DNS record or is a simple A record pointing to my (dedicated) IP suffice?
[03:29:18] *** XPCFan has joined #postfix
[03:29:33] <xpeed> a MX Record have to be set.
[03:30:04] <xpeed> and a PTR Reverse Resolution record have to be set too
[03:30:20] <xpeed> just for avoid future problems.
[03:30:37] <Bullen> ok
[03:31:03] <Bullen> what's an MX record and PTR Reverse Resolution?
[03:31:09] <xpeed> it is "seted" or "set" the past participe of the verb "set" ?
[03:31:14] <xpeed> sorry my grammar xD
[03:31:15] <Bullen> set
[03:31:18] <xpeed> oks
[03:31:20] <xpeed> ty
[03:31:20] <Bullen> no worries mate :)
[03:32:03] <Bullen> i'm gonna have a look at my registrar/dns and see if i can get that set up :)
[03:32:07] <xpeed> try searching a little bit about that first =P
[03:32:14] *** m1n3s6 has joined #postfix
[03:32:24] <Bullen> but what's PTR Reverse Resolution and what's it do?
[03:33:00] <xpeed> it is the reverse resolution wich autenticate that your ip is pointing to your domain
[03:33:11] <xpeed> like your domain point to that IP
[03:33:19] <Bullen> ok
[03:33:24] <Bullen> How do i set it up?
[03:33:45] <xpeed> it depends on many things
[03:34:03] <xpeed> are you buying a DNS Servide Resolution?
[03:34:15] <xpeed> are you using a Free DNS Server?
[03:34:22] <Bullen> i'm using namecheap
[03:34:30] <Bullen> so, the one i get with the domains i purchase
[03:34:35] <xpeed> you have to call your ISP Company to request a PTR Rec
[03:34:39] <Bullen> this is what it says
[03:34:44] <xpeed> for your DSL Channel
[03:34:44] <Bullen> ok
[03:34:59] <Bullen> "User (Mail Server's Host Name Required)
[03:34:59] <Bullen>       [Textboxes to enter MX values will appear after you click the Save Changes button] "
[03:35:08] <Bullen> "User Simplified (One Mail Server IP Address Required)
[03:35:08] <Bullen>       [Textboxes to enter MXE values will appear after you click the Save Changes button] "
[03:36:01] <Bullen> i'm on VPS, so i have to contact them to get that set up?
[03:36:24] <Bullen> what problem does it solve? this reverse resoltuion business? :D
[03:37:49] <xpeed> Spam problem
[03:38:05] <xpeed> i mean. without it, you can get a half functional MTA
[03:38:15] <xpeed> but, a lot  of mail servers will reject your mails
[03:39:09] <Bullen> ok
[03:39:20] <Bullen> so i have to contact my VPS provider to have that set up?
[03:40:59] <xpeed> yes.
[03:41:48] <xpeed> in most cases it is the way, but there are some providers who doesn't provide PTR recs, so only solution is change de ISP
[03:42:19] <xpeed> but, i think if you purshase a DNS record , then in it you can get a rDNS rec too
[03:42:26] <xpeed> but never tested it
[03:42:39] <Bullen> ok
[03:43:19] <Bullen> soo, if i can't get that fixed, what would you propose? All i really want to do is to be able to send and recieve email from a domain that i own
[03:43:54] <growltiger> what vps provider?
[03:44:01] <Bullen> cheapvps.co.uk
[03:44:16] <Bullen> a2b2 i think owns it
[03:44:49] <Bullen> eh, vaserve apparently
[03:45:04] <growltiger> linode is a much better deal
[03:45:16] <growltiger> and they let you setup ptr
[03:45:21] <Bullen> well, too late by now :)

[04:02:02] <sahil> indeed, it _does_ suck.
[04:02:04] <Bullen> i like apples
[04:02:09] <Bullen> oranges SUCK
[04:02:12] <sahil> Bullen: pears.
[04:02:41] <growltiger> i've had zero downtime in over 2 years
[04:02:50] <Bullen> apples are green
[04:02:51] <growltiger> not one minute
[04:03:28] <sahil> downtime is not the sole reason for suckiness of a given hosting provider; ergo, lack of downtime does not define a good vps provider.
[04:03:31] <sahil> booyaka!
[04:03:48] <Bullen> unless you're selling apples, think about the revenue loss!!
[04:03:49] <sahil> sorry, you won't get your referrral for signing someone up.
[04:04:16] * sahil -> out
[04:04:17] <sahil> enjoy, kids.
[04:04:49] <growltiger> linode has done nothing but improve services over time with no additional cost
[04:11:11] *** jangell has quit IRC
[04:13:09] <rob0> If a VPS won't give you a PTR, they're not competitive. It's not like something like that costs them extra, and it sure can cost them a lot of business.
[04:13:48] <rob0> Definitely inquire and complain if they say no.
[04:14:12] <rob0> I bet they do give you a PTR, but you didn't know to ask.

[06:36:43] <dfack> sombody can please explain to me what is a PTR Record and why it have to be requested to de ISP Company and not to be configured at DNS Server?
[06:37:28] <dfack> i've read many pappers about, but with a DNS Server i always have set reverse resolution
[06:37:41] <growltiger> he who controls the ip address range is he who controls the delegation of ptr records for said ips
[06:38:05] <dfack> but. all ptrs that i have been tested like reverse resolution for gmail etc etc
[06:38:36] <dfack> is resolved by a DNS server isn't it?
[06:38:38] <growltiger> they own their own ip blocks, so yes, they can do their own forward and reverse
[06:38:58] <dfack> PTR != Reverse DNS resolution?
[06:39:12] <dfack> domain --> IP ;   IP --> Domain?
[06:39:31] <growltiger> !fcrdns
[06:39:31] <knoba> growltiger: "fcrdns" : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forward_Confirmed_reverse_DNS : $myhostname should resolve to your IP address, which in turn should resolve to $myhostname. This is very important if you want big sites to accept your mail. If you can't have it from your ISP, see !relayhost .
[06:39:46] <dfack> already read.
[06:39:52] <growltiger> read again
[06:40:00] <dfack> i read twice T_T
[06:40:15] <dfack> i just, confused
[06:41:05] <dfack> look i tell you about DNS stuff because at local DNS servers Bind or Win2003 Servers, PTR Point is just a reverse resolution rec set at the DNS server
[06:41:10] <dfack> ant it works
[06:41:12] <dfack> and*
[06:41:26] <dfack> but at WAN level must be different isn't it?
[06:42:45] <growltiger> if you dont have delegation of the ips you want to have ptr records for, you have to ask for it
[06:43:02] <growltiger> then yes, you can setup rev zones in your dns
[06:43:47] <dfack> but they are complete different to a PTR rec
[06:43:49] <dfack> ?
[06:45:28] <dfack> First a reverse DNS lookup is done to get a list of PTR records
[06:45:40] *** growltiger has quit IRC
[06:45:43] *** growltiger has joined #postfix
[06:45:44] <Motoko-chan> Note that many resolvers can't handle more than one PTR.
[06:46:07] <dfack> growltiger, tell me something, at your mail Systems, your ISP is the one who make the DNS Translation for your domain?
[06:46:25] <growltiger> no, we own several class c ranges
[06:46:41] <dfack> i have a medium mail server
[06:46:47] <dfack> 150 acounts
[06:47:03] <dfack> but, my ISP do not provide PTR servide
[06:47:04] <dfack> service
[06:47:05] <dfack> and
[06:47:28] <Motoko-chan> Whoever handles the reverse map for the IP needs to set up the PTR. If that is you, then you do it, if not, contact who does.
[06:47:32] <growltiger> then you are going to need to use a relayhost or find a different host
[06:47:41] <dfack> other two aditional ISPs who have service at the zone of the building where de DSL Channel is neither offer that service
[06:48:10] <Motoko-chan> dfack, you'll need to do as growltiger wrote.
[06:48:28] <Dominian> Who owns the IP?
[06:48:30] <dfack> ok, i was reading about to solve it but
[06:48:31] <Motoko-chan> Most business-class connections should come with static IPs and the ability to get a PTR set.
[06:48:39] <dfack> Dominian, a ISP
[06:48:59] <Dominian> Your ISP?
[06:49:29] <Motoko-chan> If you are on a residential connection, why the heck are you trying to run your own services?
[06:49:32] <dfack> if i buy a DNS Service for a Record, that DNS could have a Reverse DNS service who translate IP --- > Domain (like a LAN DNS server does)
[06:49:36] <dfack> it could work?
[06:49:40] <dfack> Dominian, yes
[06:49:43] <Motoko-chan> dfack, no.
[06:49:48] <Dominian> dfack: then your ISP needs to configured the PTR
[06:49:53] <Motoko-chan> Whoever is delegated for the IP must set it.
[06:50:06] <Dominian> 160.240.23.216.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer noobfarm.org.
[06:50:11] <Dominian> that's a PTR record
[06:50:12] <Motoko-chan> If that is your provider, then it can only be your provider.
[06:50:24] <dfack> i know, it is just a REVERSE DNS query
[06:50:25] <Dominian> and I don't control that.. my provider does
[06:50:32] <dfack> like any DNS server could do
[06:50:36] <Dominian> dfack: right.. and whoever OWNS that IP has to create the PTR
[06:50:39] <Dominian> dfack: wrong
[06:50:46] *** sed has joined #PostFix
[06:50:47] <dfack> um
[06:50:51] <Dominian> Unless they've delegated the PTR to your DNS server.. then they have to set it for you
[06:51:06] <Dominian> and if you hav eno idea what we are talking about.. pay a consultant.. you're going to break someting.
[06:51:10] <rob0> How is the world going to know who to ask, if not the owner of the netblock?
[06:52:16] <rob0> Sounds like your company is big enough to fuss to the ISP about rDNS. If they don't do it for you, find a better ISP.
[06:52:32] <dfack> ok letme see if ive understand, the Owner of my IP is the only one who can request a PTR for it in the Main DNS Servers at internet is that correct?
[06:52:52] <dfack> all ISPs around do not provide that service
[06:53:12] <f3ew> dfack, then restrict your choice of providers to the ones who do
[06:53:15] <Dominian> They should if they are seling you static IPs
[06:53:21] <Motoko-chan> Um, no main internet servers. If they own the IP they likely control the RDNS themselves.
[06:53:24] <Dominian> and allow you to run mail services
[06:53:38] <dfack> so i'm very fucked up xD, i'll pay a hosting or use a relayhost
[06:53:53] <rob0> any respectable business-class ISP should do rDNS for you, even for a single static IP.
[06:53:59] * Motoko-chan nods
[06:54:11] <Motoko-chan> If you are on residential-class service, you likely won't get the time of day.
[06:54:34] <rob0> unless it's near quitting time when you call ;)
[06:54:34] <growltiger> they are already doing rdns, just not pointing to your hostname
[06:54:44] <growltiger> so, it should not be a big deal for them
[06:54:56] <growltiger> if it is, tell them you are going elsewhere
[06:55:05] <sed> is virtual_alias_maps the place for the virtusertable from sendmail.. (for the most part)?
[06:55:18] <dfack> Host 149.194.189.170.in-addr.arpa. not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
[06:55:35] <growltiger> ok, well maybe they arent...
[06:55:40] <rob0> Since I don't precisely know what virtusertable is, I can't say.
[06:55:45] <rob0> !virtual
[06:55:45] <knoba> rob0: "virtual" : a way to configure additional domains and user accounts (that do not need to exist in your /etc/passwd). See: http://www.postfix.org/VIRTUAL_README.html
[06:55:50] <rob0> !virtual_alias_maps
[06:55:51] <knoba> rob0: "virtual_alias_maps" : a configuration parameter in the main.cf: Optional lookup tables that alias specific mail addresses or domains to other local or remote address. The table format and lookups are documented in virtual(5).
[06:56:17] <dfack> ok, thank you guys
[06:56:30] <rob0> 189.170.in-addr.arpa.   3600    IN      NS      ns1.oxy.com.
[06:56:48] <rob0> 2 NS hosts for the whole /16
[06:56:49] <dfack> i'll will try to solve this thing
[06:56:57] <dfack> that is not my server
[06:57:00] <Motoko-chan> You'd need to contact whoever runs oxy.com's DNS servers.
[06:57:01] <dfack> was just an example
[06:57:16] <Motoko-chan> They maintain the RDNS for that.
[06:57:22] <dfack> Host 62.164.96.190.in-addr.arpa. not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
[06:57:25] <dfack> thats the one
[06:57:57] <Motoko-chan> Looks like you'd want to contact TELEBUCARAMANGA S.A. E.S.P.
[06:58:07] <dfack> already did
[06:58:10] <growltiger> telechupacabra?
[06:58:15] <dfack> haha
[06:59:19] <rob0> Didn't we have this same discussion about a week ago?

[07:34:03] <zenspider> so I had a server go down hard and come up with a messy fsck. mailman's config was affected. I fixed that by backups. But now all the mail I'm sending to the list has 52 recipients (including myself) that are not getting mail because the recip list is too big... my mail config has been untouched for years and years, and nothing else in mailman seems to be different than the backup. anyone have a clue?

[19:02:55] <xpoint> neXyon, error i belive you have is that postmaster@domain goes to postmaster

[19:20:04] <seekwill> What would happen with multiple delimiters? user.tag.foo at example dot com?
[19:20:18] <rob0> The standard is +, but I have found lots of braindead web programers don't think + can be in email addresses.
[19:21:18] <rob0> I think the first delimiter is the one that counts.

[22:17:36] <BuenGenio> evening
[22:18:04] <BuenGenio> sorry about the join/leave flood - over a Sat line, and weather is pretty snowy here
[22:18:57] <BuenGenio> would anyone be able to suggest a good value, (possibly even free) legit SMTP relay, that supports DKIM that I can use as transport for my server?
[22:19:14] *** BuenGenio has quit IRC
[22:19:38] *** BuenGenio has joined #postfix
[22:20:00] <BuenGenio> and even then, I'm told, there's no guarantee mail will get through to Yahoo/Hotmail ...
[22:20:23] <xpoint> BuenGenio, how ?
[22:20:36] <BuenGenio> what how?
[22:20:51] <xpoint> how do you want a server
[22:21:03] <BuenGenio> no, I have a server
[22:21:22] <xpoint> only missing amavisd then ?
[22:21:24] <BuenGenio> but there's a lot of mail that doesn't get delivered to Yahoo, for instance
[22:21:26] <BuenGenio> nope
[22:21:31] <BuenGenio> got Amavis/Clamd
[22:22:05] <xpoint> you are on dynamic ip ?
[22:22:09] <BuenGenio> no
[22:22:21] <BuenGenio> i've gone over the Yahoo MTA guidelines too
[22:22:27] <BuenGenio> the only thing that's missing is DKIM
[22:22:47] <xpoint> dkim is easy in amavisd 2.6.1
[22:23:10] <BuenGenio> the problem is setting up SPF
[22:23:11] <xpoint> with uses Mail::DKIM
[22:23:27] <BuenGenio> the registrar for some reason won't update IN TXT for our domain
[22:23:35] <BuenGenio> at least dig returns an empty TXT...
[22:23:45] <xpoint> every domain on that server need to setup spf on dns
[22:24:16] <BuenGenio> yeh, which is what i'm currently unable to do :(((
[22:24:17] <xpoint> bad dns hoster
[22:24:38] <BuenGenio> don't know really, since I didn't register my client's domain name
[22:24:42] <BuenGenio> it's Enom.com
[22:24:53] <BuenGenio> looks OK...
[22:25:38] <BuenGenio> looks like connection is getting reset again...
[22:25:40] <BuenGenio> fahk
[22:25:52] <BuenGenio> do you copy?
[22:26:01] <xpoint> http://old.openspf.org/wizard.html?mydomain=Enom.com&submit=Go!
[22:26:23] <BuenGenio> no, Enom.com is the registrar! :)))
[22:26:35] <BuenGenio> :)))
[22:26:45] <xpoint> sorry :))
[22:26:58] <BuenGenio> how does this work then?
[22:27:33] <xpoint> give me your domain
[22:27:38] <BuenGenio> steelheadventures.com
[22:28:15] <xpoint> http://old.openspf.org/wizard.html?mydomain=steelheadventures.com
[22:28:21] <xpoint> currently no spf
[22:28:38] <xpoint> but try to follow the wizzard :)
[22:28:57] <BuenGenio> can i paste what i have in my TXT field (accoring to the control panel) here?
[22:29:17] <BuenGenio> it's short anyway: selector1._domainkey IN TXT "k=rsa; t=s; p=MIGfMA.../YQIDAQAB"
[22:29:32] <BuenGenio> this is for @
[22:29:59] <BuenGenio> $ dig steelheadventures.com TXT
[22:29:59] <BuenGenio>  ->
[22:30:03] <BuenGenio> ;steelheadventures.com.         IN      TXT
[22:30:24] <BuenGenio> so, kind of confusing
[22:30:34] <BuenGenio> and it's been 2 days since i updated it...
[22:31:18] <xpoint> if you have this on dns the above wizzard should know it
[22:31:49] <BuenGenio> anyway, it's in the control panel, but not in DNS
[22:31:55] <BuenGenio> (again, according to dig)
[22:31:58] <xpoint> this is not spf
[22:32:11] <xpoint> dont mix dkim with spf
[22:32:24] <BuenGenio> right ok
[22:32:31] <BuenGenio> i'm talking about DKIM + TXT
[22:32:50] <xpoint> so i will stop helping with spf :)
[22:33:03] <BuenGenio> fahk
[22:33:07] <BuenGenio> :)
[22:33:39] <BuenGenio> what should i do?
[22:33:57] <xpoint> you have a older amavisd ?, older as in < 2.6.x ?
[22:34:21] <BuenGenio> 1 sec

[22:48:33] <BuenGenio> also, i might need your help with a few points there, if you don't mind...
[22:48:47] <BuenGenio> will you be able to stick around for a bit?
[22:48:56] <xpoint> keep the old config and add dkim confs from 2.6.x would be fine
[22:49:34] <BuenGenio> what should i have as $mydomain
[22:49:46] <xpoint> you still need to read the CHANGLELOG .)
[22:49:50] <BuenGenio> i'm serving several domains
[22:49:58] <BuenGenio> ok, will do.
[22:50:24] <xpoint> $mydomain is same as before
[22:50:53] <BuenGenio> it's set to the name of the default vhost...
[22:50:55] <BuenGenio> is that cool?
[22:51:25] <xpoint> it should be the default reverse ptr domain
[22:52:02] <xpoint> but it worked before with 2.5.4 so do not change it
[22:52:17] <BuenGenio> dig -x 62.149.27.85 PTR
[22:52:34] <BuenGenio> colo27-85.users.colocall.net
[22:52:38] <BuenGenio> whereas before it was something else
[22:53:13] <xpoint> that hostname is totaly unrelated to get dkim working
[22:53:54] <BuenGenio> ok, i got enable_dkim_verification = 1 & enable_dkim_signing = 1 in.
[22:55:03] <BuenGenio> i don't need to change forward_method, right?
[22:55:07] <BuenGenio> it's   forward_method => 'smtp:[127.0.0.1]:10027',
[22:55:52] <BuenGenio> where do i stick the Key?
[22:55:58] <BuenGenio> master.conf
[22:56:01] <BuenGenio> i would guess
[22:56:29] <xpoint> the key need to be in amavisd.conf, but the select is on dns
[22:57:00] <xpoint> amavisd genrsa > domain.key
[22:57:12] <xpoint> if i remember :)
[22:57:25] <BuenGenio> i already got the keys generated
