[00:00:07] <jludwig> so my firewall has port 25 opened for sure and the folks at dyndns said my DNS was right
[00:00:15] <jimpop> but, to reiterate, DNS says that email should be handled by mail.jludwig.net (which isn't 76.254.16.92)
[00:00:17] <jludwig> It must be my nat D:
[00:00:29] <seekwill> Read what jimpop said
[00:00:48] <jludwig> jimpop: thanks
[00:00:54] <jimpop> np, bw
[00:02:08] <wacky> adaptr: But whether a daemon is started in advance, or on demand, is not relevant to the discussion. Choosing which daemon to receive the message and the context in which it operates is based on a two level table lookup. First, the recipient is looked up in "transport" and a service name is determined. These names are arbitrary. They are used as the key to look up an entry in master.cf. From this entry, we obtain the command and some arguments. The command
[00:02:08] <wacky> determines which daemon code implements a transfer. The context information available to it comes from 1) the postfix environment, 2) arguments passed from the master.cf entry corresponding to its service name, 3) implied parameters about the message, 4) the message content, and 5)a parameter that appears along with the service name in the transport table.
[00:02:40] <jludwig> jimpop: Where would I be able to change that?
[00:03:03] <jludwig> I apologize; my brain feels like goo right now.
[00:03:09] <seekwill> eww
[00:03:12] <adaptr> wacky: I have no idea what you want
[00:04:18] <jimpop> jludwig: at mydyndns.org
[00:04:42] <jimpop> jludwig: i presume they have some control panel thingy
[00:04:57] <jimpop> !cpanel
[00:04:57] <knoba> jimpop: Error: "cpanel" is not a valid command.
[00:05:00] <jimpop> doh!
[00:05:01] <adaptr> indeed
[00:05:02] <jimpop> fail
[00:05:03] <jludwig> jimpop: awesome! I'll be back in an hour or so if I'm as dump as I feel right now
[00:05:38] <thumbs> he's dump?
[00:05:52] <jludwig> ecks dee. ._.
[00:06:04] <jimpop> being dumped?
[00:06:09] <seekwill> dumping?
[00:06:17] <jimpop> oh
[00:06:24] <jimpop> eww
[00:10:15] <wacky> adaptr: Case 1 : transport (mylist at domain dot tld mailman); master.cf (mailman ... pipe <arguments>) Sends messages to the specified executable.
[00:10:50] <adaptr> wacky: I have no idea what you want
[00:12:06] <wacky> Case 2: transport (mylist at domain dot tld lmtp:<host>:<port>); master.cf (lmtp ... lmtp) Sends messages to another mailman which is listening on <host>:<port>
[00:13:06] <adaptr> wacky: I have no idea what you want
[00:14:02] <wacky> What I want to do is write transport like case 1 and have the system react as if I had case 2. I need to make an appropriate (different) entry in master.cf to define the mailman service there.
[00:14:45] <adaptr> okay
[00:15:40] <wacky> So my question is "How do I specify <host:>:<port> to lmtp in the arguments in master.cf?
[00:17:02] <adaptr> lmtp is a TCP protocol, not a local socket
[00:17:24] <adaptr> so, AS DOCUMENTED, you specify the TCP IP and port you wish the lmtp servcie to run on in master.cf
[00:17:39] <adaptr> host:port - - - - - lmtp $your_stuff
[00:17:43] <seekwill> I think he wants to alias all that
[00:17:50] <adaptr> he can't
[00:18:01] <seekwill> He could if he read man bottle(5)
[00:18:18] <jludwig> Okay... so quick question - wouldn't these be right? http://pastebin.com/YQybA7yy @jludwig.net sends them to mail.jludwig.net which in turn goes to 76.254.16.92
[00:18:19] <adaptr> because postfix needs to actually use the LMTP protocol if he wants it delivered to an lmtp server
[00:18:21] <jimpop> it's more fun with beer(9)
[00:18:50] <seekwill> jludwig: Looks good
[00:18:51] <wacky> No, that is for the listening side of the daemon. I want to set the remote host to which it will connect.
[00:18:59] <adaptr> wacky: transport(5) needs to tell postfix what protocol to use. this is not circumventable.
[00:19:09] <jimpop> jludwig: i see mail.jludwig.net has address 76.254.20.225
[00:19:25] <seekwill> jimpop: Ping his server
[00:19:57] <jimpop> seekwill: don't get me involved in doing sciency things
[00:20:11] <wacky> transport defines the "service". THat service is mapped to a protocol in master.cf
[00:20:47] <adaptr> wacky: oh, for sending ? sure
[00:20:47] *** geek_cl has quit IRC
[00:20:58] <adaptr> see, here'
[00:21:22] <jimpop> jludwig: that does look good, but now DNS changes will take time to propagate throughout the system
[00:21:23] <adaptr> s where it would have come in handy if you'd explained what it is you WANT, instead of lecturing me about irrelevant stuff
[00:21:36] <adaptr> jimpop: urgh, please don't use that word
[00:21:56] <jimpop> DNS?
[00:22:09] <jludwig> jimpop: That's the weird part - those are the settings I had set up initially.
[00:22:19] <jimpop> O.o
[00:22:43] <jimpop> well, something at dnydns is telling me to send your email to 76.254.20.225
[00:23:21] <wacky> I told that to you 3 hours ago.
[00:24:31] *** lusted_gay has quit IRC
[00:24:55] *** lusted_gay has joined #postfix
[00:25:18] <adaptr> I was not here 3 hours ago
[00:25:50] <seekwill> You were!
[00:27:09] <tharkun> 14:50 < adaptr> ichdasich: I was away. have you solved it yet ?
[00:27:15] *** sphenxes has quit IRC
[00:27:28] <tharkun> seekwill: no he wasn't arrived like 30 minutes later
[00:27:50] <seekwill> Same thing
[00:27:58] <adaptr> nihilist!
[00:27:58] <tharkun> And according to the law of minimun effort backloging is impossible for adapt xD
[00:30:36] *** dall has joined #postfix
[00:30:38] <dall> hello
[00:30:46] <dall> someone use dovecot?
[00:31:04] <adaptr> dall: probably, why ?
[00:31:20] <dall> I have installed and configured Postifx
[00:31:38] <dall> then installed DOvecot and set doveoct as deliver on postfix sasl configuration
[00:31:53] <adaptr> ah, then you should probably undo that and start simple.
[00:32:01] <adaptr> !tell dall welcome
[00:32:01] <knoba> dall: "welcome" : welcome to #postfix! if you're joining for the first time, or are new to irc, the first thing you'll want to do is read the channel topic (/topic). it includes crucial instructions on how to effectively ask for help here, and what data you should include with your questions. the degree of success you'll have is directly related to how effectively you're able to follow those guidelines.
[00:32:26] <dall> now I have a doubt.... ihave to create two list USERS and PASSWORD (I would like to use virtual users)
[00:32:46] <dall> i can start bth but i have to tell to dovecot WHERE find these users and password
[00:32:55] <adaptr> dall: this is not #dovecot
[00:33:11] <seekwill> This is #adaptrworld
[00:33:14] <tharkun> dall: #dovecot @irc.freenode.net
[00:33:22] <adaptr> you better believe it
[00:33:37] <dall> yes i know but surelly someone use dovecot....unfortunately #dovecot is not very used
[00:33:56] <dall> i'm reading it http://wiki.dovecot.org/VirtualUsers
[00:34:06] <dall> there is: userdb passwd-file {
[00:34:07] <dall> args = /home/%d/etc/passwd
[00:34:13] <adaptr> dall: don't do that.
[00:34:32] <dall> and shadow for user...... but how can i ADD these information there?
[00:34:44] <dall> i don't think manually, i think threre is a command to add them, no?

[01:13:40] <mrbichel> Hi I am experiencing some problems configuring my domain to receive email. http://pastebin.com/as7VCQuX
[01:13:49] <mrbichel> I can receive on my FQDN

[01:14:16] <mrbichel> but not on example.com
[01:15:52] <mrbichel> So me at otherdomain dot com is correctly delivered locally, same is me at server dot example.com but me at example dot com is bounced with Recipient address rejected: User unknown in relay recipient table

[01:25:04] <adaptr> mrbichel: is your server the public MX for example.com ?

[01:26:43] *** dwbear75 has joined #postfix
[01:27:52] <dwbear75> I'm not sure how to formulat my search question so I thought I would ask here.
[01:28:13] <dwbear75> I need to configure postfix on my ubuntu laptop to change is 'smarthost' depending on the network that I'm connected too
[01:28:22] <dwbear75> when I'm at work, I want to use my works smtp server
[01:28:35] <dwbear75> when I'm home I want it to use my isp's smtp server
[01:28:52] <dwbear75> is there a good write up on how to configure postfix to 'know' or easily 'change' the smart host?
[01:29:39] <adaptr> mrbichel: is your server the public MX for example.com ?
[01:30:05] <mrbichel> adaptr: yes
[01:30:24] <adaptr> dwbear75: there is no easy solution to that, but you can try fallback_relay
[01:30:56] <adaptr> set your relayhost to the most likely one, and fallback_relay to the other one. postfix caches the results from these lookups
[01:31:28] <adaptr> (this is presuming that you can't use the work server when you're not at work)
[01:31:39] <adaptr> otherwise, script it
[01:31:49] <dwbear75> adaptr: didn't know about fallback_relay -- thanks for the pointer
[01:31:50] <adaptr> mrbichel: are the logs forthcoming ?
[01:33:05] *** dall has quit IRC
[01:35:14] <tharkun> dwbear75: If you configure your network using a manual script. Setting the relayhost is a breeze. Remember postifx is not intended to be used on a laptop. At least originally :)
[01:35:30] <mrbichel> adaptr: i think actually i need to look in to the dns setup again, anything at example dot com doesn't appear in the log at all - I gues that would mean that the emails can't actually have hit the server?
[01:35:31] <seekwill> tharkun: I BB'ed it to you
[01:36:18] <tharkun> seekwill: nothing has arrived that way. Try pinging me

[01:37:11] <mrbichel> adaptr: http://www.mxtoolbox.com/SuperTool.aspx?action=mx%3ajohan.cc
[01:37:36] <adaptr> mrbichel: what domain are we talking about
[01:38:37] <mrbichel> adaptr: the fqdn is tango.johan.cc - the domain my mail is not working for is johan.cc

[01:41:58] <mrbichel> hmm seems my mx preference value is being ignored somehow then.
[01:42:09] <mrbichel> lower preference comes first right?
[01:42:25] <jimpop> mrbichel: yes
[01:43:04] *** alus has left #postfix
[01:46:37] <mrbichel> ok thanks guys - seems my other mx record wouldn't give tango.johan.cc a chance even though it didn't have any records for the specific emails. Deleted it, now the setup works.
[01:47:04] <mrbichel> Isn't an mx supposed to fallback to the next preference?
[01:47:40] <adaptr> try being more specific
[01:48:06] <adaptr> the primary MX record for johan.cc is as above. that is not you. you will never get this mail.
[01:48:10] <tharkun> seekwill: nice article on wikipedia about your hometown. I am seriously tempted to make the line to get a visa just to visit the city
[01:48:26] <seekwill> Let me know!
[01:48:47] <tharkun> Take that for granted :)
[01:49:28] <seekwill> We do
[01:49:39] <mrbichel> adaptr: what is the idea of having a secondary MX then - is that only if the primary fails completely, like goes offline?
[01:53:23] *** Timmooo is now known as Tim|Away
[01:55:47] <adaptr> mrbichel: yes
[01:58:33] <mrbichel> adaptr: ok thanks a lot, my setup seems to work now. I had gotten the idea that mailservers would be able to fallback automaticly to the next one instead of bouncing if they didn't have a record for a given adress.
[01:59:04] <mrbichel> I think maybe what I want to look into is a mx backup
[01:59:07] <adaptr> again, I am unsure what you are talking about
[01:59:33] <adaptr> there are RFCs describing the purpose of multiple MX records, and what happens in specific scenarios
[02:00:50] *** dragonheart has joined #postfix
[02:04:13] <seekwill> People should just use one MX!
[02:05:09] <jimpop> not all people, but most people.
[02:05:32] <rob0> what about device nodes? I'm not a people.
[02:05:33] <seekwill> Everyone!
[02:05:48] <adaptr> I'm a rogue IPv6 address
[02:05:59] <jimpop> secondary MX is a great way to detect spam sources ;-)
[02:07:00] <seekwill> Why duplicate the work of others?
[02:07:50] <jimpop> perhaps someone is one of the others.
[02:09:30] <rob0> If they're not one of us, they're one of them.

[09:27:07] *** david_ has joined #postfix
[09:27:26] *** davlefou has quit IRC
[09:35:50] <Captain_Haddock> Hi, I'm running postfix with mysql. All is working well. I am able to retrieve e-mails as well as set up e-mail forwards for certain accounts. However, what I would like to do is set up a particular account to store its e-mail in its mailbox as well as forward a copy to an external address.
[09:36:39] <Captain_Haddock> I have three tables in mysql, users, forwards and domains. When I add an entry for an account in both users and forwards, the forwards takes precedence and the entry in the users table does not receive the e-mail.
[09:36:50] <Captain_Haddock> Is there a switch that I need to toggle to get this happening?
[09:37:47] <Captain_Haddock> (or should I perhaps get inventive with the entry in my forwards table? Perhaps something like source=foo at example dot com, destination=foo at example dot com,bar@example.com?
[09:38:01] <Captain_Haddock> +)
[09:41:07] <Shuro> okay, with forward you mean an alias address, or?
[09:42:51] <Shuro> so you need two alias entries, first one is "source at domain dot tld => destination at domain dot tld", second one is "source at domain dot tld => source at domain dot tld". I think the order is irrelevant
[09:42:52] <Captain_Haddock> Shuro: yep
[09:43:12] *** dubey has quit IRC
[09:43:17] <Captain_Haddock> Shuro: roger that! Let me give that a whirl.
[09:43:18] <Captain_Haddock> Cheers :)
[09:44:06] <Shuro> or this might also work: "source at domain dot tld => source at domain dot tld,destination@domain.tld"
[09:44:54] <Shuro> See also: http://www.postfix.org/aliases.5.html
[09:46:14] *** david_ is now known as davlefou
[09:46:33] *** davlefou has quit IRC
[09:47:41] <Captain_Haddock> Shuro: the latter is what worked :)
[09:47:57] *** sphenxes has joined #postfix
[09:48:05] <Shuro> both should work
[09:49:22] <Shuro> for example i use the first variant, its easier and cleaner to handle throu a backend
[09:49:33] <Captain_Haddock> Shuro: the forwards table in my setup has the source as a primary key which meant that it had to be unique.
[09:49:59] <Shuro> then you should use unique, thats the solution ^^
[09:51:18] *** weedar has joined #postfix
[09:51:39] <Captain_Haddock> Shuro: unique would have still restricted it to one entry per source, right? I could make it a non-unique "index" I guess. But I can live with this uglier solution too :P
[09:52:52] <Shuro> Captain_Haddock: http://pastebin.com/LGQZyhym look at this (my solution)
[09:52:56] *** lxyu has joined #postfix
[09:53:46] <Shuro> Captain_Haddock: so you can have multiple entries for email = source at domain dot tld, as long the goto field is different
[09:54:18] <Captain_Haddock> Shuro: ah, yep. That makes sense :)
[09:54:37] <Captain_Haddock> (I thought you wanted just the "email" column to be unique)
[09:55:32] *** jujugre has quit IRC
[09:55:34] <Shuro> ^^ that would be the same as primary key... i see no difference
[09:55:58] <Captain_Haddock> :P
[09:56:04] <Captain_Haddock> yes, I misunderstood what you meant
[09:56:21] <Shuro> its okay, i hope it helps you
[09:56:44] <Captain_Haddock> It does - thanks a bunch!
[09:57:14] <Captain_Haddock> Time to see what the sun looks like - bbiaw :)

[14:53:49] <Aprogas> !tell elb0w nullclient
[14:53:49] <knoba> elb0w: "nullclient" : a null client is a computer that can only send mail. it receives no mail from the network, and it does not deliver any mail locally. while postfix can be configured to fill this role, it is often unnecessary overkill, and a much simpler software package is more appropriate. see !nullclient_software for more details.

[14:54:23] <knoba> elb0w: "nullclient_software" : a program that serves as a drop in replacement for /usr/sbin/sendmail and provides a simple means to submit messages to an existing msa without the need to install and maintain a full-blown mta/msa. examples include msmtp, esmtp, ssmtp and nullmailer. also see !msa
[14:54:43] <elb0w> whats a msa?
[14:55:24] *** Broken|Arrow has quit IRC
[14:55:55] <Aprogas> !msa
[14:55:55] <knoba> Aprogas: "msa" : Message Submission Agent : a process which accepts message submissions from MUAs on port 587 known as 'message submission service' using the 'message submission protocol' defined by rfc4409. To enable message submission service in postfix uncomment the relevant lines in master.cf. also see !submission.
[14:56:07] <elb0w> ah common sense ftl

[14:56:44] <elb0w> Can I get some guidance from someone more experienced in email? I am doing some work for a website and we need to send emails daily/weekly to all users.
[14:57:16] <Aprogas> A nullclient would suffice for that, but make sure the volume you will send is in agreement with the policies of the relayhost you use.
[14:58:06] <elb0w> Well could I setup and be my own relay then?
[14:58:25] <elb0w> The userbase can increase exponentially, I dont want to hit any bottlenecks down the road and have to make changes

[15:39:08] <Shuro> and if the socket-position isnt configured, it didnt work
[15:39:12] <rob0> Or if you failed to follow the instructions in Postfix SASL_README.

[15:53:03] *** weedar has quit IRC
[15:53:50] <Aprogas> Hmm.. using monit's protocol postfix-policy to check whether postfwd was running, caused a lot of bogus dnsbl queries.
[15:54:16] <Aprogas> In retrospect I should have known this would happen, since monit will just emulate a policyd query and postfwd will treat it as real.
[15:54:28] <elb0w> Does my internal hostname have to be the same as my MX record?
[15:55:16] <Aprogas> dnsbl-1.uceprotect.com timed out for postfwd, causing postfwd to fail to respond in time to monit, causing monit to consider an otherwise working postfwd as broken and restart it.
[15:55:36] <Aprogas> So the tool that should prevent daemons from breaking, broke one because I misconfigured it. :)
[15:55:40] *** KaiForce has quit IRC
[15:58:23] <Aprogas> elb0w: Probably not.
[15:59:47] <Aprogas> myhostname, or at least smtp_helo_name, should be set to the hostname your IP-address PTRs to, and you should pass FCRDNS.
[16:00:17] *** UQlev has quit IRC
[16:00:46] <elb0w> well for example my box is xen.elbowrage.com, my mx is mail.xen.elbowrage.com
[16:01:17] *** jujugre has left #postfix
[16:01:23] <elb0w> but I can send mail to xen.elbowrage.com not mail.xen.elbowrage.com
[16:02:12] <Aprogas> MX-records are just for other MTAs to find your MTA; what domains you accept mail for is separate from MX.
[16:02:22] <Aprogas> My MX is nvidium.soleus.nu and it accepts mail for aprogas.net
[16:03:02] <elb0w> ok, so if I wanted to send mail from xen.elbowrage.com and make it look like it came from just elbowrage.com
[16:03:14] <elb0w> Thats ok?
[16:03:27] <Aprogas> Define "came from"
[16:03:45] <elb0w> when someone sees the email address it came from
[16:04:00] <elb0w> So if I send you a mail, I want you to see elb0w at elbowrage dot com opposed to elb0w at xen dot elbowrage.com
[16:04:08] <elb0w> I dont care about getting a reponse
[16:04:12] <elb0w> response*
[16:04:19] <Aprogas> Is elbowrage.com your domain?
[16:04:33] <elb0w> yeah, but the mailserver is on xen.elbowrage.com
[16:04:38] <elb0w> do I just use xen.elbowrage.com as my relay?
[16:04:44] <Aprogas> Why not just set a MX for elbowrage.com as well?
[16:04:53] <elb0w> different server
[16:05:21] <Aprogas> You shouldn't use a domainpart in an email-address that doesn't have an associated MX-record.
[16:05:43] <elb0w> should I make a mx for it then?
[16:05:48] <Aprogas> Right now you seem to have MX-records for neither.
[16:05:57] <elb0w> yeah im really confused on all of this lol
[16:06:00] <Aprogas> In which case A-as-implicit-MX kicks in.
[16:06:11] <elb0w> yeah I have a A
[16:06:15] <elb0w> but you still need mx yeah?
[16:06:28] <Aprogas> It's useful, especially if you want it to be different from the A-record.
[16:06:38] <elb0w> I just dont want to get blacklisted
[16:07:02] <Aprogas> MX is for receiving mail, you don't get blacklisted based on your MX.
[16:07:32] <elb0w> Well if I just want to send emails what should I be concerned with?
[16:07:46] <Aprogas> 16:01:39 < Aprogas> myhostname, or at least smtp_helo_name, should be set to the hostname your IP-address PTRs to, and you should pass FCRDNS.
[16:07:53] <elb0w> yes it is
[16:08:23] <Aprogas> You should also be concerned with any SPF or DKIM policies on domains you use in sender addresses.
[16:08:24] <elb0w> Ok, what about protecting myself from spammers. I read something earlier about open relays, but that postfix does not use open relays by default
[16:08:41] *** e-jones has joined #postfix
[16:09:05] <Aprogas> Postfix has some built-in detections to prevent from becoming an open relay, but it will use external open relays, because it cannot verify that.
[16:09:07] *** shoonya has joined #postfix
[16:09:13] <Aprogas> If your relayhost is an open relay, Postfix will just use that.
[16:09:51] <Aprogas> Also make sure your postmaster and abuse addresses on all domains you send mail from, are working and that you read them.
[16:10:57] <Aprogas> Protecting yourself from spammers is too complicated to get into now.
[16:11:21] <kenyon> open relay test: http://verify.abuse.net/relay.html
[16:11:24] <Aprogas> There are many methods, and they must constantly evolve, because the spammers do as well.
[16:12:00] <elb0w> ok I gues relay access denied is good then
[16:12:19] <Aprogas> That depends on how is trying to relay.
[16:12:36] <Aprogas> Are you really sure about running your own MTA?
[16:13:04] <Aprogas> You could just purchase a subscription at some relayhost that caters to bulk senders.
[16:13:05] <elb0w> Have to learn sometime
[16:13:15] <elb0w> Do you know any U.S. ones?
[16:13:22] <Aprogas> No.
[16:13:36] <Aprogas> You should also adhere to CAN-SPAM.

[16:19:07] <elb0w> I just read bad stuff about running your own and using ec2

[17:40:13] <xperia> hello to all. small question related to sync of email servers. i have two postfix mail servers set up and need now the possibility to import sync the mails from the old postfix mail server. what is best way to do this ?
[17:41:36] <f3ew> rsync?
[17:41:56] <UQlev> xperia: it depends on type of mail-accounts. System or virtual?
[17:42:11] <xperia> UQlev: virtual
[17:42:37] <xperia> f3ew hmm if rsync would work it will be great
[17:42:55] <LinuxCode> xperia, thats how I rsynced maildir accounts
[17:43:01] *** wdp has quit IRC
[17:43:01] <LinuxCode> worked like a treat
[17:43:21] <LinuxCode> best thing, sync while running
[17:43:27] <LinuxCode> switch off for a a minute
[17:43:30] <UQlev> xperia: you should take care about ownership of maildirs in new place
[17:43:32] <LinuxCode> rsync again
[17:43:37] <LinuxCode> start new servers

[17:45:13] <LinuxCode> but it worked
[17:45:25] <LinuxCode> better is to have no downtime at all

[18:22:36] <jelly> DarkKnightCZ: if you're talking about a Maildir folder, it can be as simple as mkdir -p foldername/{cur,new,tmp}

[19:06:21] <dall> i have this problem: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table
[19:06:33] <dall> i added the domain example.com to my mydestination
[19:06:37] <dall> what could be?
[19:06:37] <Dominian> It means the user you sent email to doesn't exist
[19:06:46] <f3ew> You need a system account for the user
[19:06:46] <Dominian> Need to see the entire log transaction.
[19:08:02] <dall> no system account i'm using virtual_mailbox_domains
[19:08:07] <dall> (and maps)

[19:27:18] <Dominian> I bet part of the problem is you're using a domain that actually exists.. do you actually own example.net?

[22:00:17] <bulbous> anyone know of a way to change the "To: " header in outbound mail from postfix -- I'd like mail sent to the root user on my box, e.g., to get sent to my personal email address, and have the header show my personal address rather than "To: root"

[22:01:46] <bulbous> yeh I've been looking at the address rewriting readme -- have tried modifying /etc/postfix/virtual and /etc/postfix/canonical -- but something I'm doing is wrong
[22:02:07] *** mambaw has quit IRC
[22:02:43] <bulbous> adaptr: what I'm trying to do is make it so that the mail going to the root user on different boxes, all gets sent to linuxadmin at mydomain dot com -- so that people can filter email based on the To: address in the header
[22:03:51] <bulbous> right now I've got the email being forwarded to linuxadmin at mydomain dot com, but gmail, e.g., sees the email as coming to root at mymachine1 dot com, root at mymachine2 dot com, etc... -- so I can't filter things easily using a single To: address
[22:04:27] <bulbous> seems like it should be easy, but I've been reading about rewriting / trying things out, nothing I've done seems to modify the To: portion of the message at all
[22:06:06] <bulbous> e.g., I see the following in gmail right now:
[22:06:07] <bulbous> from root root at 82085-app01 dot eegore.com
[22:06:07] <bulbous> to root at 82085-app01 dot eegore.com
[22:06:07] <bulbous> date Sat, May 14, 2011 at 7:59 AM

[22:22:37] <dall> yes i know, why? are the low IDs "reserved" ?
[22:22:42] <dall> only a curiosity
[22:22:46] <rob0> and a Postfix one ... misuse of user "postfix"
[22:23:18] <Section1> sure have userdb static using Id of postfix in dovecot
[22:23:26] <dall> i understand, but why I can't use low ids?
[22:23:32] <dall> Section1, no userdb

[22:23:53] <dall> userdb
[22:24:42] <dall> to read the messages have been stored by postfix i would like to use postfix user
[22:24:55] <dall> can i set postfix UID to 5000

[22:26:52] <rob0> YDIW.
[22:27:08] <dall> i will fix using first_valid_uid 103
[22:28:16] <rob0> I wish I could say that it would crash and burn when so horribly misconfigured, but unfortunately it probably won't.
[22:28:37] <dall> rob0, i'm using virtual_uid_maps = static:103 and virtual_gid_maps = static:109
[22:28:46] <rob0> YDIW.
[22:29:12] <dall> what?
[22:29:48] <rob0> You're Doing It Wrong. (See the INSTALL.html link and !mail_owner factoid.)
[22:30:40] <dall> rob0, is not a postfix problem...but surelly i will read it
[22:31:42] <rob0> It is a Postfix problem in that you have totally gutted the privilege separation security model.
[22:34:29] <dall> aaaah are you telling me that i should not use postfix user for all.....and use mail_owner to set another UID
[22:34:42] <Section1> dall, whats rob0 its saying that make something similar virtual_uid_maps = static:5000
[22:34:50] <Section1> yeah that
[22:35:11] <dall> Section1, i'm using virtual_uid_maps
[22:35:17] <dall> so i can change that uid ?
[22:35:19] <Section1> with postfix id
[22:35:23] <dall> yes
[22:35:25] <dall> with postfix ID
[22:35:32] <Section1> change it
[22:35:33] <dall> and it's wrong as you told me
[22:35:52] <Section1> as rob0 says from begining
[22:36:02] <rob0> Typically one would expect the Postfix mail_owner to be "postfix". As documented.
[22:36:06] <dall> yes yes, ok
[22:36:47] <dall> but the question is......if i change virtual_uid_maps with ANOTHER user...... what user will be user for the email storing
[22:36:54] <dall> i try to explain...
[22:37:02] <dall> i have /home/postifx/mail/ <-------- there
[22:37:13] <rob0> What I wonder: if you have such misconceptions about Unix security, why are you running a mail server, and why virtual at that?
[22:37:23] <dall> the domains/account they will have virtual_uid_maps permissions ?
[22:38:00] <dall> no misconceptions...only to understand which user postfix will use to "write" the email message
[22:38:08] <rob0> These questions are answered in the documentation that you are not reading, and that I will not retype/paste here for your benefit.
[22:38:12] <dall> and then....do i have to use the same user for dovecot, right?
[22:38:33] <dall> i understand you...no problem

[22:40:49] *** bulbous has quit IRC
[22:41:29] <adaptr> a *thinking*, documentation-reading person might reason that the most efficient way to do this is to use the same user database for both dovecot IMAP, SASL, and postfix

[22:43:55] <bulbous> jimpop: what I'm doing makes sense / not trying to confuse anyone, I'm actually trying to enhance the experience.

[22:44:26] <jimpop> bulbous: i fully understand that. this chan is littered with you asking the same question over and over.....
[22:44:42] <jimpop> 24 hours ago you were asking the same thing :-)

[23:09:51] <lawl> hi, how can i force the use of SMTP authentication for any mail sent through my email server, even if it is from my local network. e.g. if i connect via netcat to my mail server and send an email from user at mydomain dot tld to user at mydomain dot tld it doesn't give realy access denied, even having sasl_auth enabled
[23:10:56] <lawl> i'm reading about email addres verification, but i think it is just for mail generated from non existent accounts.
[23:11:22] <seekwill> People usually force auth over submission port (587) for "outbound" email, and have port 25 open for "inbound"/local delivery
[23:11:43] <seekwill> So, what's your config, and how did you test this?
[23:12:12] <lawl> i test it connecting to my email server's port 25
[23:12:26] <lawl> let me paste my config.
[23:12:26] <seekwill> Does this server face the Internet?
[23:12:35] <lawl> yes it is, but it is behind a firewall
[23:12:50] <lawl> altough 25 port is open to the world also
[23:12:56] <seekwill> If I were to send an email to user at mydomain dot tld, how would I authenticate?
[23:13:17] * adaptr always faces teh seriesoftubes
[23:13:34] <lawl> if you try to send email to otherdomain.tld it gives relay access denied. But if i send to @mydomain.tld it let it pass
[23:13:44] <seekwill> Put it this way, if a message is destined to mydomain.tld, authentication is not necessary. If a message relays through the server to another server, it needs to auth
[23:13:52] <adaptr> excellent! at least you're not an open relay, then
[23:13:53] <seekwill> So sounds good...
[23:14:12] <lawl> yes my server is not a open relay
[23:14:19] *** Broken|Arrow has quit IRC
[23:14:34] <lawl> i just want to know if it is possible to force SMTP auth even for emails from my mail server to my mail server
[23:15:15] <adaptr> that doesn't make any sense
[23:15:40] <seekwill> Why?
[23:15:44] <lawl> why not?
[23:15:54] *** xeodox has joined #postfix
[23:16:00] <seekwill> Why not not?
[23:16:20] <jimpop> Y U not not?
[23:16:24] <lawl> if i connect to a server and i know a valid account can spam the whole server because it doesn't ask fro appropiate credentials
[23:16:25] <seekwill> Have a purpose for your actions
[23:16:43] <lawl> s/fro/for/gi
[23:16:45] <seekwill> No
[23:17:09] <seekwill> You don't get it... You don't need a valid acount to spam the whole server
[23:17:25] <lawl> even with legitimate clients, when they send an email, they authenticate and send it
[23:17:38] <seekwill> Ok
[23:17:55] <seekwill> What are you trying to do?
[23:18:32] <lawl> is this a normal thing ? i mean, isn't this a missconfiguration from my part ?
[23:18:59] <seekwill> No, it's a misunderstanding of email services
[23:19:27] <lawl> ok
[23:19:29] <seekwill> <lawl> if i connect to a server and i know a valid account can spam the whole server because it doesn't ask fro appropiate credentials <-- If this was true, this is a misconfiguration
[23:19:47] <lawl> yes it is true.
[23:19:55] <seekwill> I don't think it is
[23:20:03] <seekwill> I think you're interpreting incorrectly.
[23:20:12] <Section1> lawl, you want that your users in your local lan use auth ?
[23:20:20] <lawl> yes i am
[23:20:27] <lawl> sorry, yes i do
[23:21:43] <lawl> isn't it the way of how a mail server should server emails ? if you want to send an email through the server, authenticate to it and send the email
[23:22:10] <Section1> !smtpd_recipient_restrictions
[23:22:10] <knoba> Section1: "smtpd_recipient_restrictions" : Configuration parameter in main.cf: Access restrictions that the smtpd(8) applies in the context of the RCPT TO command. See access(5) for an overview of access restriction features. These restrictions control relaying to external domains. Default is to relay only for client IP addresses in $mynetworks; See: http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#smtpd_recipient_restrictions
[23:22:50] <lawl> it is not most on the sender restriction side ?
[23:23:00] *** bulbous has quit IRC
[23:23:39] <Section1> "These restrictions control relaying to external domains"
[23:23:50] <rob0> lawl, if I wanted to send you a mail, how could I possibly authenticate? I don't have an account with you.
[23:24:04] *** bulbous has joined #postfix
[23:24:30] <lawl> in that case, I am the recipient so it should pass because my server is not sending it
[23:25:11] <seekwill> So when you sent yourself an email... you were the recipient...
[23:26:33] <lawl> well i suppose that i am missunderstanding how smtp protocol works
[23:26:44] <seekwill> Wait...
[23:26:58] <seekwill> You just said... you were the recipient... so it should pass because your server is not sending it...
[23:27:04] <seekwill> So why doesn't it appy?
[23:28:02] <rob0> !smtpd_sender_login_maps
[23:28:02] <knoba> rob0: "smtpd_sender_login_maps" : a configuration parameter in the main.cf: Optional lookup table with the SASL login names that own sender (MAIL FROM) addresses.
[23:28:27] <rob0> !permit_mynetworks
[23:28:27] <knoba> rob0: "permit_mynetworks" : Permit the request when the client IP address matches any network or network address listed in $mynetworks. Can be used in smtpd_*_restrictions.
[23:28:31] <lawl> that is the thing i want to understand, i used to suppose that if i send an email from my mail client, it reach the mail server, the server queue it and then send it
[23:29:10] <lawl> of course, when the client connects, it should send the username and password
[23:29:21] <rob0> take permit_mynetworks out of smtpd_recipient_restrictions, maintain smtpd_sender_login_maps, use reject_authenticated_sender_mismatch
[23:29:30] <rob0> !reject_authenticated_sender_mismatch
[23:29:30] <knoba> rob0: Error: "reject_authenticated_sender_mismatch" is not a valid command.
[23:29:41] <rob0> postconf.5.html#reject_authenticated_sender_mismatch
[23:30:07] <lawl> thank you, i will try that
[23:30:15] <seekwill> lawl: What you want is as I described before. Port 25 is used to "receive" mail. That port will accept mail from anyone as long as it is destined to your own domain. Port 587 requires auth and if you pass auth, you can send to anyone in the world through your server.
[23:30:38] <seekwill> lawl: You need to understand the concepts and the process flow before configurating the system
[23:30:53] <rob0> the latter part is optional, if you don't worry about your users using addresses which do not belong to them.
[23:32:32] <lawl> seekwill, in that case, how can i prevent to send email that is requested to be sent from the port 25 ? (It should only recive emails not send it)
[23:32:45] <seekwill> Hmm?
[23:33:44] <lawl> let me read the smtp protocol documentation, before saying more, probabli not*much*intelligent things.
[23:33:50] <Section1> i have a doubt ... can i use differents smtpd_recipient_restrictions example one for port 25 and other for port 587 ?
[23:35:11] <lawl> well, my server doesn't even a 587 socket listening
[23:35:29] <rob0> of course you can, see the comments in master.cf
[23:35:39] <lawl> and i suppose, by this conversation, that is a missconfiguration
[23:36:24] <Section1> heh thanks rob0
[23:36:52] <Section1> i forgest the -o in master
[23:36:56] <Section1> forget*
[23:41:24] <lawl> well, if i connect to my server port 25 from an external Public IP address, and i send the typical mail from: rcpt to: from a valid email account to any valid accound on my server, the server send the email, there is a way to prevent that ?
[23:42:37] <Section1> so never in the life you will get a external email
[23:42:48] <dall> yeah i receive email!!!
[23:43:08] *** pickcoder has joined #postfix
[23:43:35] <lawl> Section1, but, it should only recive email from any external domain without problem, but no from the very same domain
[23:43:43] <pickcoder> is there a service or software app that I can use to determine RFC compliance for multi-part mime header formation?
[23:43:51] <pickcoder> along with other headers
[23:45:41] <Section1> lawl, you want to reject mails from external servers with from=yourdomian.com to=yourdomain.com

[23:46:57] <lawl> why it could be a bad thing ?

[23:53:01] <dall> stop
[23:53:27] <Section1> maybe with spf ?
[23:53:33] <Section1> i dont use spf rigth now
[23:53:40] <pickcoder> lawl: you can't control FROM: spoofing on other servers. HELO checks are helpful on your side, but the reality is you're best using an RBL and adding SPF as an optional secondary check
[23:53:42] <seekwill> Don't reject on SPF either...
[23:53:54] <lawl> rob0, you, who are a master in postfix, is that true ?
[23:54:19] <dall> dovecont.conf http://nopaste.info/0558a1a7ae_nl.html
[23:54:39] <dall> auth.d and conf.d are empty
[23:55:06] <lawl> pickcoder, but it is not on other servers, it is from the very same email server
[23:55:21] <rob0> You can do a check_sender_access lookup with "example.com reject", lawl, where example.com is your domain (one listing for each domain.)
[23:55:55] <rob0> this would only apply to your MX port, of course, not to submission.
[23:56:49] <lawl> http://pastebin.com/D34jNVrK
[23:57:28] <lawl> that is what i want to prevent, by the way, the subnet is not in $mynetworks
[23:57:41] <lawl> actually only localhost and server IP is in $mynetworks
[23:57:57] <dall> Section1, what do you think?
[23:58:27] <lawl> rob0, i will try that
[23:58:30] *** seekwill has quit IRC
[23:59:28] <Section1> in SPF exists this reject: SPF: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is not allowed to send mail from domain.com
[23:59:58] <Section1> dall, exists #postfix
