<knoba> rob0: "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 .

[00:11:44] <rob0> The documentation is good, but unfortunately, in English. Perhaps you can find a good translation?
[00:11:58] <pingouin> what is the directive in main.cf to handle several relayhost, sending to each one according to the me at domain dot tld, me at anotherdomain dot tld ?
[00:11:59] <standon> milko: you already said that. do you have a specific question?
[00:12:16] <standon> pingouin: is me at domain dot tld the SENDER or the RECIPIENT in your example?
[00:12:29] <pingouin> standon: the sender sorry
[00:12:45] <rob0> Another problem is that although documentation is good, prequisite knowledge is high ...
[00:12:47] <rob0> !easy
[00:12:48] <knoba> rob0: "easy" : unfortunately, because there are some folks who invest the time and effort to understand things, it makes emailing very easy for lots of other people, which seems to foster the notion that it couldn't possibly be any more complex than clicking send. this, of course, is not the case. as with most things, you get what you put in. also see !maintain

[05:35:05] <Krooks> How can I prevent someone from telnetting to port 25 and sending an email ?
[05:35:33] <Dominian> Krooks: don't run a mail server?
[05:36:31] <LinuxCode> Dominian, hehe
[05:36:34] <LinuxCode> ;-D
[05:36:44] <meaton2veggies> hi all
[05:36:58] <Krooks> Dominian: c'mon I'm serious.
[05:37:09] <meaton2veggies> just got some problems fwd mail to open relay
[05:37:16] <Dominian> Krooks: Well, your question was completely open.. no detail.. what kind of answer did you expect...?
[05:37:16] <LinuxCode> Krooks, by configuring postfix to only allow receipt for local users
[05:37:31] <LinuxCode> or virtual users
[05:37:34] <Dominian> by default postfix does not open relay.. so if that's what you're worried about...
[05:37:37] <meaton2veggies> getting a std err: warning: ::1: address not listed for hostname localhost
[05:37:50] <Dominian> meaton2veggies: What do you have configured for inet_interfaces?
[05:37:59] <Krooks> I just attended a seminar and the guy just showed me he send me an email by telneting to port 25 and sending an email to me.
[05:38:00] <meaton2veggies> not using postfix as open relay but sending mail ie relayhost
[05:38:21] <LinuxCode> Krooks, so ?
[05:38:21] <Dominian> Krooks: If its a domain you host, thats normal
[05:38:27] <LinuxCode> thats normal
[05:38:30] <Dominian> Krooks: How do you think email gets to you in the first place?
[05:38:39] <Dominian> Krooks: Whoever gave this seminar.. is a moron
[05:38:42] <LinuxCode> Dominian, I thought it was magic
[05:38:47] <LinuxCode> lol
[05:39:04] <Dominian> "hey look, I can send you email on your own server.. to your own hosted domain.. through port 25... zomg.. I'm a hacka!"
[05:39:10] <meaton2veggies> Dominian: havent done anything with inet_interfaces
[05:39:10] <Dominian> *smack*
[05:39:13] <LinuxCode> Krooks, telnet allows you to debug your MYA
[05:39:15] <LinuxCode> MTA
[05:39:16] <Dominian> meaton2veggies: when did the issue start?
[05:39:25] <Krooks> Dominian: But I don't want people to telnet to port 25 and sending an email to my CEO and say to him 'fuck you' and put the FROM: me .
[05:39:38] <Dominian> Krooks: well, that's what internet email headers are for
[05:39:44] <LinuxCode> Krooks, that is where you put sender checks in
[05:39:48] <meaton2veggies> from start, it can send mail locally
[05:39:57] <LinuxCode> Krooks, fix your smtp
[05:40:04] <Dominian> meaton2veggies: let me rephrase: what did you change right before this started happening?
[05:40:06] <LinuxCode> Krooks, postfix has the necessary options
[05:40:13] <Krooks> LinuxCode: fix it how ?
[05:40:25] <LinuxCode> Krooks, by first reading about how to configure postifx
[05:40:26] <LinuxCode> ?!?!
[05:40:29] <Dominian> imho, Krooks , there's nothing to fix.
[05:40:40] <Krooks> so its not a problem ?
[05:40:41] <Dominian> that guy giving the seminar was a retard
[05:40:54] <Dominian> sender_checks may help, but headers in the email can show that YOU didn't send it
[05:40:55] <Krooks> But we were not in the office.
[05:41:01] <Krooks> We are somewhere else
[05:41:04] <Dominian> port 25 IS how email is passed from server to server.. no way around it
[05:41:11] <meaton2veggies> dont think i changed anything, your same basic config, set myhostname, added relayhost
[05:41:15] <Dominian> Krooks: how the hell do you think email gets from point A to point B?
[05:41:41] <Dominian> meaton2veggies: that error messages is looking for an IPv6 localhost equivalent.
[05:42:08] <Krooks> Dominian: I understand what you mean. But isn't there an option where only authenticated people can send through my smtpd ?
[05:42:52] <Dominian> Krooks: look...
[05:42:59] <Dominian> Do you plan on accepting email from other companies around the world?
[05:43:35] <Krooks> Because as it is right now, anyone can telnet to my port 25 and send 'funny' email to anyone. The system should be a little more robust , don't you think.
[05:43:44] <Krooks> Dominian: ofc ourse
[05:43:46] <Dominian> ok
[05:43:47] <meaton2veggies> Dominian: 127.0.0.1 should be set localhost.localdomain localhost
[05:43:56] <meaton2veggies> Dominian: mynetworks has the IPv6 stuff in it
[05:44:02] <Dominian> Do you think you're going to get every server in the world to AUTH to your server just to send you an email?
[05:44:07] <Dominian> Krooks: They will literally tell you to piss off.

[05:45:58] <Krooks> Dominian: No problem to receive from anyone. I got a mailscanner to scan for spam. But to send.
[05:46:02] <Dominian> Krooks: They will be able to send email to you no matter what.. if you host the domain.. they can send to active accounts in that domain.. they will not be able to RELAY through you.. that's what you wanna be careful of

[05:48:07] <Krooks> Dominian: RELAY as in send an email from my server to another server, right ?
[05:48:25] <Dominian> right
[05:48:30] <Dominian> by default postfix does not relay
[05:48:37] <Gerdesas> well, actually 'through' your server
[05:48:59] <Dominian> Gerdesas: through, from.. same thing really.
[05:49:25] <meaton2veggies> Dominian: maybe change inet_protocols?
[05:49:31] <Gerdesas> not really. from == originates on his server; through == originates elsewhere and is relaying through him.
[05:49:37] <Dominian> meaton2veggies: looking
[05:49:39] <Gerdesas> but it's all semantics
[05:49:56] <Dominian> Gerdesas: if I telnet into his server.. its going to be "from" his server ;)
[05:50:01] <meaton2veggies> ::1 is defined in /etc/hosts
[05:50:08] <Dominian> meaton2veggies: inet_interfaces = loopback-only
[05:50:10] <Dominian> that's bad

[05:50:16] <meaton2veggies> ahk
[05:50:17] <Dominian> !inet_interfaces
[05:50:17] <knoba> Dominian: "inet_interfaces" : a configuration parameter in the main.cf: The network interface addresses that this mail system receives mail on. By default, the software claims all active interfaces on the machine. The parameter also controls delivery of mail to user at [ip dot address]. If your server does not react to connection attempts on a certain interface you should check this setting.

[11:44:44] <almail985> Hi every one, I recently installed a postfix on a debian 5 followin the Signum tutorial for that distribution. It seems that I made some mistake because the outgoing messages are fast to be delivered but when I try to send from my gmail or a yahoo account to the mail server I installed the mail arrives after many hours
[11:46:05] <almail985> if I whatch the mail.log the system dosn't register anithing there reciving the request from the gmail servers
[11:46:38] *** yajith has joined #postfix
[11:46:47] <almail985> and after some hour (maybe 5 or more) the mail its on the inbox
[11:47:09] <Zerberus> almail985: do you think it is a good idea to run the development branch of debian as a mail server?
[11:50:08] <almail985> ashh..I really dosn't know to mutch about linux to judge that
[11:50:18] <almail985> but I thing that 5, debian lenny its stable now
[11:50:20] <almail985> not?
[11:53:41] <almail985> Zerberus: anyway this shoudn't be the reason. What I really don't understand its after sending a mail from my gmail to this mail server the mail.log doesn't register anithing
[11:55:23] <Zerberus> almail985: ah sorry, thought debian stable would be release 4, you are right, checked it on debian.org
[11:55:52] <Zerberus> almail985: if your DNS entries are fresh, it might come from that
[11:56:14] <almail985> I dont know if maybe its the DNS server from the domain. I have configured on a public server
[11:56:22] <almail985> now if been writting that jejeje
[11:56:28] *** yajith has left #postfix
[11:57:38] <almail985> Zerberus, how many time it needs?
[11:58:17] <Zerberus> almail985: depends on the time periods you have configured for your zone
[12:00:24] <almail985> Zerberus: I just took a DNS example file and I addapted . They are this ones (
[12:00:24] <almail985> 1226002987 ; Serial
[12:00:24] <almail985> 10800 ; Refresh

[12:00:44] <almail985> $TTL 86400
[12:02:13] <almail985> And like the records I have are this ones: mail.example.com IN A 1.2.3.4
[12:02:19] *** oekotaco has joined #postfix
[12:02:23] <oekotaco> hi everyone.
[12:02:25] <almail985> and at the end I have the entry for the MX
[12:02:38] <oekotaco> again have som problems but this time with authentication.. :/
[12:03:16] <oekotaco> i used pam authentication before.. but after postfix upgrade-configuration it dosn't work. i used pam based authentication
[12:03:16] <almail985> example.com IN MX 10 mail.example.com.
[12:03:25] <oekotaco> one sec. and i will post pastebin url.
[12:05:28] <Zerberus> almail985: is your domain a secret? if not please name it so I can dig for the values
[12:06:18] <almail985> can I paste here the DNS zone file?
[12:06:53] <almail985> weboolize.com
[12:09:10] <oekotaco> here we go.
[12:10:59] <Zerberus> almail985: your MX entry points to mail.weboolize.com, and that does not resolve for me
[12:12:27] *** brancaleone has joined #postfix
[12:12:40] <oekotaco> hmm.
[12:12:42] <Zerberus> oekotaco: you use saslauthd?
[12:12:56] <oekotaco> no i used courierauthd before.
[12:13:09] <oekotaco> with pam authentication
[12:15:34] <oekotaco> but that makes me so confused...
[12:15:47] <oekotaco> only outgoing mails will not work.
[12:15:59] <almail985> I know the DNS request respond mail.weboolize.com (this value was some days ago the MX record) but I changed to cerbero.weboolize.com
[12:16:11] <oekotaco> if i get mails from courier-imapd it works perferct to authenticate..
[12:16:49] <oekotaco> i know this are two different parts.. but it makes me confused anywa.
[12:17:05] <Zerberus> almail985: you ns.weboolize.com still give mail.weboolize.com as MX
[12:17:10] <Zerberus> almail985: weboolize.com. 10800 IN SOA weboolize.com. admin\ at weboolize dot com. 1226002987 10800 3600 604800 10800
[12:18:08] <Zerberus> almail985: now it changed
[12:20:31] <Zerberus> oekotaco: your postfix tries to speak with the saslauthd
[12:20:51] <Zerberus> oekotaco: check your SASL configuration parameters to match the use of courierauthd
[12:21:04] <oekotaco> yes. thats what i see.. but i have no clue why.
[12:21:25] <oekotaco> in which file i have to check this "sasl/smtpd.conf" ?
[12:21:41] <oekotaco> pwcheck_method: saslauthd
[12:21:42] <oekotaco> oh.
[12:24:13] <almail985> Zerberus: Shall I change the DNS file and replace the 3 line per your line? or just to change the $TTL value to 10800?

[12:31:59] <Zerberus> almail985: and be aware that you have a forward / reverse mismatch
[12:33:47] <almail985> Zerberus: what means that?

[12:35:16] <almail985> Zerberus: jejejeje...ashh...why?I just followed the Signum tutorial in workarround
[12:35:30] <Zerberus> almail985: the wrong resolution for your MX comes from 87.98.145.43

[12:38:48] <almail985> Zerberus: what shall I do?
[12:40:25] <Zerberus> almail985: to fix the cached DNS: increase your serial of the zone and reload it
[12:40:40] <Zerberus> almail985: best set it to date plus counter: 2009080801
[12:40:54] <Zerberus> almail985: and each time you change the zone, increase the serial
[12:41:08] <almail985> Zerberus: jejeje..I forgot it. thanks for helping me, if you come to Barcelona some day I will envite you a beer ;)
[12:41:15] <almail985> OK
[12:42:27] <Zerberus> almail985: for the forward / reverse topic: get your ISP to set a PTR for your IP to cerbero.weboolize.com
[12:43:11] <Zerberus> almail985: so that both match: host cerbero.weboolize.com and host 87.98.145.43

[15:36:34] <Zordrak> Ive got something upside-down face.. i have an understanding fail relating to Virtual Alias Domains vs. Virtual Mailbox domains
[15:37:09] <Zordrak> i have my primary domain (where mail is picked up by users) set as a VMD and other domains that are just forwarders set as VADs
[15:37:51] <Zordrak> but, its causing mail to be undeliverable (ie mailman mail) if a mailbox doesnt exist
[15:39:01] *** TeckniX has joined #postfix
[15:39:10] <Zordrak> so if you mail a list address (info at example dot com), even though its in mailman's aliases file which is in the config under virtual_alias_maps, the mail is rejected because it looks up whether theres an actual delivery mailbox for it in ldap, finds there isnt and rejects
[15:40:30] <Zordrak> "user unknown in virtual mailbox table"
[15:42:01] *** cilly has joined #postfix
[15:42:13] *** pingouin has quit IRC
[15:42:18] <Zordrak> it would make sense if the virtual mailbox domain had its own aliases definitions... but it doesnt.. so i have to specify aliases in a virtual alias domain map file...
[15:42:50] <Zordrak> or am i missing something... perhaps there IS a way of defining aliases for a virtual mailbox domain separately from the virtual alias domains...

[16:24:45] <Signum> Zordrak: Yes. You don't have a shell user.
[16:25:09] <Signum> Zordrak: System users have a context in which a pipe can be run. While virtual users don't.
[16:25:17] <Signum> Zordrak: Actually that's half the truth. :)
[16:25:26] <Zordrak> wtf? so... how do you pipe?
[16:25:32] <Signum> Zordrak: After all there is virtual_uid_maps and virtual_gid_maps.
[16:25:36] <Signum> Zordrak: You forward to a system user.
[16:25:55] <Signum> Zordrak: E.g. "mydestination = localhost". And then use an alias like "some at virtual dot user" -> "mailman-foo-list@localhost"
[16:26:07] <Signum> Zordrak: That's how I integrate mailman currently. There are other approaches though.

[16:28:00] <Zordrak> seriously though.. are you saying the mailman docs on postfix+virtual are just wrong?
[16:28:11] <Signum> Zordrak: If you want to sacrifice a domain for mailman purposes there is also a script called /etc/mailman/postfix-to-mailman.py that may aid you.
[16:28:19] <Zordrak> i cant
[16:28:24] <Signum> Zordrak: I wouldn't say they are wrong. Actually I haven't looked at the docs for a while.
[16:28:31] <Zordrak> the lists already exist on the primary domain
[16:29:19] <Zordrak> firstname.lastname at example dot com = LDAP lookup, virtual delivery
[16:29:32] <Zordrak> listname at example dot com "| mailman"
[16:29:39] <Zordrak> thats effectively what i need
[16:30:26] <Zordrak> i need to find out what the deal is with ~mailman/data/virtual-mailman
[16:30:29] <Zordrak> i dont have that fileo
[16:30:37] <Zordrak> but its the one the docs talk about
[16:31:16] <Zordrak> nfway... i suddenly do!
[16:31:43] <Zordrak> this could be the answer
[16:32:15] <Signum> Zordrak: The biggest caveat is that using a pipe directly from a virtual alias won't work. You'll have to either use a transport service or master.cf or something crazy. Or just forward it to a local alias which in turn can use a pipe from /etc/aliases
[16:34:34] <Zordrak> COME OOONNNNN!!!!!!

[17:03:11] *** Skaag has joined #postfix
[17:03:15] *** Roobarb-Work has quit IRC
[17:04:41] <lunaphyte> bxf: probably because you didn't install it.
[17:05:15] <bxf> lunaphyte, I followed the guide, but there is no mentioning of saslauthd process.
[17:05:16] <Signum> bxf: because dovecot can handle the authentication. saslauthd is evil.
[17:05:17] *** Skinkie has left #postfix
[17:05:31] <bxf> Signum, I guess you got the right answer.
[17:05:42] <Signum> bxf: I guess so, too, because I wrote the tutorial. :)
[17:05:43] <bxf> Signum, then why saslauthd is evil?
[17:06:06] <bxf> Signum, thank you for the nice tutorial. I didn't 'fail miserably' ;-)
[17:06:35] <Signum> bxf: It's a bit harder to configure with Debian running Postfix running chrooted. And the syntax is sometimes cryptic and has changed a lot between versions.
[17:06:42] <Signum> bxf: Great you like it. :)
[17:07:10] <Signum> ...which reminds me to get the page on greylisting, DKIM and smtpd_*_restrictions online... :(
[17:07:26] * Signum is so damn lazy
[17:07:32] <bxf> Signum, it is great indeed. I always wanted to configure a postfix server myself. and I am happy I did it.
[17:07:53] <bxf> Signum, may I suggest another tutorial? you may want to take a look.
[17:08:05] <Signum> bxf: My goal was to make people understand what they are doing instead of just copy/paste/copy/paste/fail...
[17:08:11] <Signum> bxf: Sure.
[17:09:28] <bxf> I didn't follow this one, but i got a feeling this one is solid as well.
[17:10:03] <bxf> Signum, also I totally agree your view that a tutorial should explain both what and how.....
[17:10:08] <Signum> bxf: Nice, thanks. Didn't know it.
[17:10:42] <bxf> Signum, I actually have a few questions about the tutorial.
[17:11:12] <bxf> Signum, my mail client has an option to have secure authentication.
[17:11:25] <bxf> but when I turned it on, I can't access the postfix server.
[17:12:15] <Signum> bxf: did you enable TLS in your main.cf?
[17:12:25] *** xabbuh has quit IRC
[17:12:35] <bxf> Signum, I mean "use secure authentication" not TLS which is "secure connection"
[17:12:54] *** TeckniX_idle is now known as TeckniX|Away
[17:13:06] <Signum> bxf: it should support that. secure in an SMTP authentication context?
[17:14:18] <bxf> I mean under Thunderbird and outlook express, there is an option called 'secure authenticaion'. let me try to paste a picture for you.
[17:14:34] <Signum> bxf: do you know which kind of secure auth that is?
[17:14:51] <Signum> bxf: Because in dovecot.conf / auth default / mechanisms you can configure which auth mechs are available.
[17:14:55] <Signum> bxf: I'm just using "plain login" here.
[17:15:04] <Signum> bxf: While e.g. ntlm or diest-md5 would be available, too
[17:15:46] <bxf> hmm, how do I feed the password as diest-md5 to server?
[17:17:26] <bxf> Signum, I am a bit confused. But allow me to paste a screen shot.
[17:18:06] <Signum> sure
[17:18:42] <Signum> bxf: Honestly I haven't used digest-md5. The database you use has the passwords MD5-hashed. But I'm not entirely sure that's sufficient.
[17:20:16] <bxf> Signum, in the picture. I can both use SSL and TLS to get my mail. But I can't use 'secure authentication'
[17:20:24] <bxf> and I don't what it is.
[17:20:57] <Signum> bxf: I guess it's using the SSL-enabled port instead of trying a STARTTLS then.
[17:21:09] <lunaphyte> secure authentication refers to shared secret sasl mechanisms. i wouldn't worry about it. if you're protecting the stream with tls, you're fine.
[17:21:10] <Signum> bxf: E.g. SMTP is 25 while SSMTP is 465.
[17:21:34] *** AcTiVaTe has quit IRC
[17:21:58] <Dominian> You can do TLS on port 25
[17:21:59] <Signum> bxf: I believe you have to enable an SSMTP service in your /etc/postfix/master.cf or something like that
[17:22:22] <Signum> Dominian: yes, with STARTTLS. but if you want to speak SSL/TLS right from the start you have to connect to the SSL enabled port IMHO
[17:22:36] * Dominian shrugs
[17:22:42] <Dominian> definitely true
[17:23:05] <bxf> Signum, lunaphyte, Dominian: so which one shall I use? TLS or SSL for getting mial?
[17:23:42] *** xabbuh has joined #postfix
[17:23:44] <bxf> Signum, following the tutorial, I can't send mail via SSL, but fine with TLS.
[17:23:48] <lunaphyte> tls, if available.
[17:24:06] <bxf> (I am new to all these encryted communication)
[17:24:45] <Zordrak> Anyone got any suggestions for the best handler for non-vacation auto-replies? I have a couple of addresses that auto reply to say you have reached an unmanned address.. please go to some url instead... previously these were handled by an exim filter that dropped the incoming message and sent the reply
[17:25:27] <Signum> yes, "tls, if available" will use STARTTLS and is a safe choice
[17:25:52] <Dominian> secure authentication can be viewed as like.. cram-md5 etc
[17:26:09] *** paziek_ has quit IRC
[17:26:23] <Zordrak> Dominian: if only my backend supported it
[17:26:35] <Dominian> Zordrak: :)
[17:26:42] <Dominian> Zordrak: Mine does.. however, its a pita to manage imo
[17:26:42] <bxf> Dominian, do you have any idea how to implement this? Is it even necessary with SSL or TSL?
[17:26:55] <Dominian> bxf: its just another layer of security.. it all depends on how you view it.
[17:27:05] <lunaphyte> dude - like i said, don't waste your time.
[17:27:12] <bxf> lunaphyte, me?
[17:27:14] <Dominian> If you think more security = better.. go for it.. if its a waste of your time to add authenticated cram-md5 sessions when you're already using SSL/TLS.. don't use it.
[17:27:16] <lunaphyte> yes
[17:27:37] <bxf> Signum, another question: do you think it is possible to add an extra field about "virual users"?
[17:27:39] <Zordrak> IMHO cram-md5 when already using SSL/TLS is a waste of time
[17:28:14] <bxf> Signum, I mean if would be nice to add an extra filed where admins can put in some extra information about the mail account.
[17:28:16] <Zordrak> Dominian: any opinion on the autoreplies?
[17:28:38] <Signum> bxf: Sure. Feel free to add as much as you need. Comments. Or even a true/false field to deactivate a certain account. Or quotas.
[17:29:17] *** makerc has left #postfix
[17:29:25] <bxf> Signum, I don't know mysql to add extra fields. thinking you might want to add it in the tutorial ;-)
[17:29:30] <bxf> so many things to learn.
[17:31:28] <Signum> bxf: I think you may rather want to learn MySQL. ;)
[17:31:39] <Signum> bxf: You'll need it one day anyway probably.
[17:32:51] <bxf> Signum, another question: the certificates are just for one domain. If I login using a different virtual domain, I can't get ride of the warning.
[17:33:05] *** Robbie__ has quit IRC
[17:33:16] <bxf> any way to get around this for different virtual domains and ca certificates?
[17:33:23] *** vys has quit IRC
[17:33:52] <Signum> bxf: not really unless you use different IP addresses for each domain.
[17:34:06] <Signum> bxf: After all the SSL/TLS handshake occurs before postfix knows which domain you want to send to.
[17:34:47] <bxf> Signum, then the point of using virtual domains seem of less use in this respect
[17:34:54] * Zordrak beats Dominian for going into hiding :)
[17:35:22] <Signum> bxf: Maybe. It's a common restriction. Same as with apache and SSL. Each ssl server needs a distinct IP
[17:36:50] <bxf> I see. but virtual users and aliases in the tutorial are powerful.
[17:37:12] <bxf> for virtual domains, I guess most companies just use one domain for mail
[17:38:30] <Signum> bxf: Maybe. My current employer has 10 domains. And we are using my tutorial's setup here. More domains may come. And be it just aliased domains.
[17:38:40] <Signum> bxf: So the tutorial is not only for ISPs but also for small-sized companies.
[17:39:29] <bxf> Signum, then how do you solve the certificates problem?
[17:40:32] *** zidge has joined #postfix
[17:40:36] <Signum> bxf: our users use a common server for any of our domains. it's always imap.ourcompany.com
[17:40:47] <zidge> hello every body
[17:40:50] <bxf> Signum, I see.
[17:40:58] <Signum> bxf: and incoming email comes via SMTP anyway. so there is no certificate involved.
[17:41:42] <bxf> Signum, I am nore sure what you meant
[17:42:11] <zidge> I need some help, I am setting up postfix as a replacement to sendmail, and I have a problem, I would like to allow any one to send emails to my domain
[17:42:28] <bxf> Signum, users for imap.ourcompany.com are all from the same domain?
[17:42:52] <zidge> and right now, I was only able to open for a limited amount of IPs
[17:43:58] <zidge> and getting Relay access denied errors from my ISP SMTP
[17:44:54] <zidge> I see in the main.cf a comment about "Trusted" users and "Untrusted" users, but seems those Untrusted users don't have access at all
[17:44:58] <Signum> bxf: imap.ourcompany.com will be used to fetch emails for john at somedomain dot com and jack at anotherdomain dot com
[17:45:21] <Signum> bxf: It's just the server name that you are connecting to. It has nothing to do with the domain of the email addresses.
[17:45:55] <Signum> bxf: Take your favorite internet provider that gives you a domain and an email address. They will tell you to fetch the emails from imap.mygreatprovider.com while your actual email address is bxf at pornhub dot com
[17:46:21] <Signum> bxf: The certificate is sent during the encrypted IMAP connection.
[17:46:32] <bxf> Signum, no. my email address is bxf at hardcorecentral dot com
[17:46:45] <bxf> ;-)
[17:47:19] <bxf> Signum, I am still not sure what you mean. but I'll save it for later considerations.
[17:48:24] <bxf> Signum, change imap.mygreatprovider.com into pop.mygreatprovider.com will do the same?

[18:09:21] <pickcoder> lunaphyte: amavisd-new made it fairly easy
[18:09:40] <pickcoder> there's even a script that provides the public key for you to stick in DNS

[18:10:14] <pickcoder> it also handles verification, but I've not veriried that it's working properly

[18:19:40] <Zordrak> palooka: logs
[18:20:10] <palooka> I think it has something to do with my helo restrictions, which are as follows: smtpd_helo_restrictions = permit_mynetworks permit_sasl_authenticated reject_non_fqdn_helo_hostname reject_invalid_helo_hostname permit.
[18:20:36] *** jtrm has joined #postfix
[18:21:27] <palooka> I can send mail using Outlook so long as permit_sasl_authenticated appears before any of the rejects. However, several clients cannot. Is it possible that they are not sasl authenticated by the time the helo restrictions are invoked?
[18:23:07] <palooka> Also, are helo restrictions particularly necessary if you have sender and recipient restrictions? I'm new to postfix (used qmail for many years).
[18:24:13] <palooka> I've looked over the logs, Zordrak. Hasn't helped, but I may have missed something.

[18:33:51] <palooka> Thanks, knoba. I'll have a look at that.
[18:36:49] <palooka> So, I dropped my helo restrictions, but now one of my clients can't send because they're being blocked by zen.spamhaus.org. This makes no sense. My server is not blacklisted, and the reject_rbl_client lines are in smtpd_recipient_restrictions.

[18:39:43] <rob0> It's Outlook: trashware. You tell it to AUTH, it doesn't know how, so it silently fails. If you don't AUTH, you're not going to match permit_sasl_authenticated. Nothing strange at all. And only about the 500K people have posted about the very same problem on the mailing list.

[19:48:23] *** brancaleone has joined #postfix
[19:49:01] <tessier__> I asked about this the other day but I don't think we came to a definitive answer: I have an MX that I want to do spam filtering on using crm114. Normally you use procmail to feed the mail to crm114. But I'm not sure how I can do that and still get the mail passed onto the final destination as specified in the transport maps. Does postfix have some sort of API where I can filter all mail through some other app and the let it continue on its way?
[19:49:57] *** avinson has joined #postfix

[19:50:32] *** _p870 has left #postfix
[19:50:36] <pickcoder> content_filter
[19:50:38] <pickcoder> !content_filter
[19:50:39] <knoba> pickcoder: "content_filter" : a configuration parameter in the main.cf: The name of a mail delivery transport that filters mail after it is queued.
[19:50:50] <tessier__> Hmm...I want this MX running postfix to pipe all mail through crm114. Postfix pipe delivery agent might do it...as long as it doesn't insist on local delivery.
[19:50:53] <tessier__> ah
[19:50:56] <tessier__> Thanks!
[19:51:22] <lunaphyte> although imo, there are better tools to use for spam filtering than crm114
[19:51:40] <tessier__> lunaphyte: I like crm114 and the purely bayesian approach. What else would you recommend?
[19:52:05] <lunaphyte> amavis+sa is tough to beat.
[19:52:07] *** hparker has quit IRC
[19:52:28] <lunaphyte> not to mention a well set up pre-data restriction configuration
[19:52:53] <lunaphyte> to each his own though, it doesn't matter too much to me.
[19:53:13] <tessier__> I've run amavis+sa in the past. Too many things to tweak and uses a lot of resources compared to crm114.
[19:53:14] <lunaphyte> i'm too busy reading about "selectors" to drag out my soapbox :)
[19:53:17] <tessier__> hehe
[19:53:37] <lunaphyte> there is some truth to that, indeed, but worth the investment.
[19:54:12] <lunaphyte> i doubt you could beat my success rate using crm114, but no matter.
[19:56:32] <lunaphyte> so it seems to me that if i only plan on using a single key for the moment, a select like default._domainkey.example.com would make sense.
[19:56:43] <lunaphyte> *selector
[19:57:19] <pickcoder> I rarely scan mail
[19:57:22] <pickcoder> spamhaus++
[19:57:46] <pickcoder> my scan-to-ban ratio is probably less than 1%
[19:58:20] <pickcoder> lunaphyte: yes that's fine
[19:58:23] <pickcoder> you can call whatever you want
[19:58:33] <pickcoder> just make sure it matches in the DNS setup

[20:03:18] <lunaphyte> the granularity thing refers to the lhs of an email address?
[20:04:17] *** jangell has joined #postfix
[20:05:44] <pickcoder> lhs?
[20:06:01] <pickcoder> oh
[20:06:04] <pickcoder> yeah
[20:06:18] <pickcoder> also known as user-part
[20:06:26] <pickcoder> username
[20:06:55] <lunaphyte> i see, yeah.
[20:07:28] <pickcoder> unless you are signing for the domain
[20:07:43] *** s0ber has joined #postfix
[20:08:28] <pickcoder> I assume you're talking about the identification aspect
[20:08:32] <pickcoder> not the signing
[20:08:52] <pickcoder> signing granulatiry is scoped by the selector chosen
[20:10:57] <pickcoder> then again I could be way out in left field with misconceptions
[20:11:15] <lunaphyte> no, signing, regarding the g= tag
[20:11:24] <pickcoder> typically it's domain
[20:11:35] <lunaphyte> 3.6.1 of rfc 4871 seems to clarify it.
[20:11:53] <pickcoder> kinda like LDAP schemas.. do what you want with it
[20:11:56] <pickcoder> )
[20:12:04] <pickcoder> argh.. my eyes are gone
[20:12:39] <lunaphyte> this is odd though - this little program to generate keys, dkim-genkey, has an option -r "Restricts the key for use in e-mail signing only. The default is to allow the key to be used for any service."
[20:13:10] <lunaphyte> looking at the program though, all that does is set a var, restrict=1, but never does anything with it.
[20:15:06] <pickcoder> hrm.. looks like g= is normally used for local parts
[20:15:16] <lunaphyte> yeah.
[20:15:18] <pickcoder> I guess I'm confused on terminology
[20:15:52] <lunaphyte> eat some more alphabits.
[20:17:02] <pickcoder> looks like the s tag is set to "email" selector for mail

[21:22:38] <_wms> When using virtual(5), is there a proper way to add a header with the original address so mail clients know which address to reply with?
[21:23:07] <rob0> the original address is still in the header, if it was there to begin with.
[21:23:57] <rob0> X-Original-To: is added in any case
[21:24:32] <_wms> rob0: hmm, I'm not getting X-Original-To. I thought that was just added for virtual(8), not virtual(5)
[21:25:22] <rob0> virtual(8) does not change / rewrite addresses.
[21:26:32] <rob0> I don't personally have any virtual(8) account to see what IS in the headers, and I don't feel like snooping my users' mail, but I don't see why there would be a need for X-Original-To:.
[21:27:21] <rob0> Maybe something is stripping out (or the MUA is masking) your X-Original-To: header?
[21:27:29] <_wms> rob0: virtual(8) adds that header (according to the man page), but virtual(5) does not.
[21:27:51] <_wms> ... and we're only using virtual(5)
[21:28:56] <rob0> but then what handles delivery, local(8)? Or something external?
[21:30:48] <rob0> I guess X-Original-To: is indeed added by the delivery agent, but only in the case that the address differed from the Delivered-To: address.
[21:31:08] <rob0> so we're both right, in a way
[21:31:13] <_wms> rob0: this server only performs virtual(5) mappings, it does not have any real mailboxes.
[21:31:30] <rob0> ah, so the mail goes elsewhere
[21:32:02] <rob0> hmm
[21:32:13] <devdas> _wms: ask me on Monday, I'll put up some bad Perl code which breaks bcc but gives you all the envelope information in an X-Envelope: header
[21:32:29] <devdas> (It's bad because it breaks bcc, not bad Perl)
[21:32:38] <_wms> the problem we have, is the server also runs Mailman. Mailman added a Delivered-to for the mailing list. When mailman sends to foo@virtual, the server rewrites it to foo@real and sends it. The foo@virtual ends up no being in any Received header or anywhere else.
[21:34:12] <_wms> In the case when mailman is not involved, clients seem to pick out the original from he Received headers.
