[00:22:10] <whitefang> ChadLepto: haven't done anything postfix related with an SQL backend yet. I currently have a few webapps using a MySQL backend (allocPSA, drupal)
[00:22:47] <tharkun> Deesl: Breath think. What you want to do has a weapon of choice act upon that. Do not act on what people tell you but what you actually need.
[00:23:15] <Deesl> tharkun: thanks for the suggestion
[00:25:36] *** Tabmow has quit IRC
[00:25:49] <ChadLepto> whitefang, i throw everything into sql, all postfix maps, accounts, anything that fits
[00:25:54] *** Tabmow has joined #postfix
[00:25:57] <ChadLepto> makes it super easy to fix things
[00:28:32] <rob0> Deesl, if you don't cooperate, we can't help you. See also /topic, your "postfix configuration" should have been "postconf -n" (and yikes, it looks crufty.)
[00:29:03] <rob0> anyway, it's too late for me, I gtg. Bye.
[00:31:12] <whitefang> ChadLepto: yeah I've seriously considered it.
[00:31:18] <lunaphyte> blech.
[00:31:24] <Deesl> rob0: sorry about my silence.. I was trying out a few things on my own
[00:31:25] <whitefang> I'm kind of a noob when it comes to database administration though.
[00:31:31] <Deesl> thanks so much and sorry for my silence
[00:32:13] <lunaphyte> using sql makes sense only if you've already got an established data source that can't be abandoned due to other things.
[00:32:33] <lunaphyte> ldap is more appropriate.
[00:32:55] <thumbs> or if you're a DBA like me, and no nothing about ldap, and find sql easier
[00:34:00] *** Eagleman7 has quit IRC
[00:34:08] <deXar> Talking of ~100,000 e-mails per day (user/registration based notifications), what would you postfix-friends suggest me the mostly, when it comes to performance? Any config. tip, or such advice are welcome.
[00:34:09] <lunaphyte> heh
[00:34:19] <lunaphyte> well, i didn't know anything about ldap either, until i decided to learn :)
[00:34:39] <thumbs> lunaphyte: sure, I could probably learn if I applied myself to it
[00:34:53] <lunaphyte> i'm certain
[00:36:16] *** Kalavera has joined #postfix
[00:36:48] <whitefang> LDAP seems like a very useful skill to have.
[00:39:31] *** Patrickdk has joined #postfix
[00:39:35] <lunaphyte> it was ultimately a wake up call for me.
[00:39:51] <lunaphyte> i realized that everything should be in ldap, not sql.

[05:08:54] <Braden`> Is there a way to limit it to a single IP?
[05:10:00] <pj> Braden`: yes, you can control which IP the service listens to in master.cf, you can also use a firewall to limit which IPs are allowed access.

[05:14:36] <grknight> that's of stable releases. there are development snapshots of 2.11 available as well
[05:15:07] * jimpop is quite surprised to see the latest debian release (wheezy) contain an almost up-2-date version (2.9.2) of postfix.
[05:16:33] <grknight> jimpop: and that means they are 4 patches behind in the 2.9 feature base
[05:21:13] <jimpop> wait. wheezy has postfix 2.9.6
[05:22:14] <jimpop> 2.9.6-2 to be exact.

[07:26:46] <Braden`> Nay. I discovered that to solve my problem I need to implement sasld
[07:27:08] <Braden`> So that is what I am doing, although I am encountering some problems. I keep checking the logs and googling, so I don't think I need help just yet
[07:27:16] <Braden`> I will let you know if I do though. Thanks for the reply
[07:36:35] <Patrickdk> sasld? dear god I hope not :)
[07:36:48] <Patrickdk> if you must use cyrus sasl, ok
[07:36:56] <Patrickdk> if you want to remain sane, use dovecot

[08:46:19] <Braden`> Hmm
[08:46:20] *** UQlev has joined #postfix

[08:49:09] <Braden`> Agreed
[08:49:30] <adaptr> smtpd_use_tls = yes
[08:49:33] <adaptr> get rid of that too
[08:49:44] <Braden`> I removed all instances of that. Now I am getting a 4.3.5 service configuration error. I will check the logs
[08:49:45] <Braden`> Ok
[08:50:53] <adaptr> it also pays to weed all duplicate defaults out of your main.cf - keeps you saner
[08:51:26] <adaptr> sort < <(postconf -d; postconf -d; postconf -n) | uniq -u
[08:51:34] <adaptr> the output is what SHOULD be in main.cf

[10:57:04] <level7> and
[10:57:19] <level7> smtp_bind_address=mysmtpaddress
[10:57:45] <level7> the last one is correct, that is the global address to send emails to the Internet
[10:58:32] <level7> but I do not see how I can say to postfix to talk to amavis via the 127.0.0.1... I assumed it was the first line but then I wonder why amavis gives me errors regarding policy

[11:16:24] <pj> 127.0.0.1 is generally correct
[11:19:14] <level7> then I do not see why amavis has that policy thing
[11:19:32] <level7> it should not get messages from postfix on the WAN IP

[12:07:39] *** michelem has joined #postfix
[12:08:12] <michelem> hello folks. A tip to prevent or curb outward spam with postfix?
[12:13:15] *** mcp has joined #postfix
[12:19:17] <rob0> In a nutshell: 1. Keep submission separate from MX (a different smtpd at the least); 2. Strict rate limiting (a bot can/will send mail much faster than a human!), such as !postfwd can do; 3. Content filtering focused on !uribl lookups, and I'd recommend !amavisd-new with SpamAssassin for that.
[12:20:33] <rob0> Last year I gave a boring presentation at the Southeast [USA] Linux Fest on that very subject. They have the video up at youtube. I'm on my way now to repeat that boring talk this year.
[12:21:04] *** heraclide has joined #postfix
[12:21:14] <heraclide> hello :)
[12:21:20] <rob0> (so you probably won't see much of me in here the next week or so)
[12:24:14] <heraclide> I have some clients sending big newsletter which hammers the postfix server. I would like to slow them down. I tried with postfwd as policy service like in http://pastebin.com/EmXTrb7V . My concerns is about the memory and cpu consumption ?
[12:25:12] <rob0> Did it cause a problem? I wouldn't expect postfwd to do so.
[12:25:38] <rob0> You know that it is NOT a content filter, and it does not even see the content of the mail?
[12:25:49] <rob0> !policy
[12:25:49] <knoba> rob0: "policy" : Postfix smtpd(8) policy protocol, http://www.postfix.org/SMTPD_POLICY_README.html , for complex and intelligent restrictions
[12:26:39] <heraclide> <rob0> Did it cause a problem? I wouldn't expect postfwd to do so. <= no, in fact, i made tests, but didn't push it to production already

[12:32:53] *** jarif has joined #postfix
[12:42:19] <michelem> rob0: why number 1, bounces?
[12:43:21] <rob0> Vastly different content filtering and rate limiting requirements.
[12:43:57] <rob0> Sometimes a legitimate mass mailer will bombard your site, and there's no point in rejecting that.
[12:44:38] <rob0> When a credentialed SASL user exceeds some modest rate limits, you can be pretty sure they have malware.
[12:47:11] <rob0> Then you have postfwd reject anything from that user. Or redirect to a quarantine if you feel better with that (I wouldn't. Publish your rate limit somewhere and incorporate into your ToS. If legitimate mail is blocked, they won't like it, but they were warned.)
[12:48:01] <michelem> I see, just for different tunings. I have that in place already, but MX uses MTA for its own outward delivery
[12:48:26] <michelem> I'm skeptical using perl stuff for controlling such simple things

[16:08:50] <Arkouro> I installed postfix from Debian repositories and it works correctly, however I'd like to enable TLS/SSL and force it to send email with those layers enabled. I have found a variety of guides suggesting wildly different ideas. I've tried checking for TLS support in psotfix but it doesn't appear to exist or be enabled. Must I compile SASL externally before adding in anything to make TLS work?
[16:08:50] <Arkouro> Thanks.
[16:10:22] <lunaphyte_> no
[16:10:36] <lunaphyte_> i don't understand what you're asking though.
[16:11:02] <lunaphyte_> you want to use tls, but you're asking a question about sasl?
[16:11:57] <Arkouro> That's where I am confused, do I need sasl for TLS to work in Postfix?
[16:12:07] <lunaphyte_> um, no.
[16:12:11] <lunaphyte_> that doesn't make sense.
[16:12:22] <lunaphyte_> sasl is sasl. tls is tls.
[16:12:49] <lunaphyte_> tls is encryption. sasl is authentication.
[16:12:49] <jelly> but tls is ssl!
[16:13:44] <Arkouro> every guide I find while browsing is "tls and sasl", like they both have to be setup to use have fully encrypted email. Is this the case?
[16:13:54] <lunaphyte_> heavens no.
[16:14:08] *** pecanha has joined #postfix
[16:14:09] <lunaphyte_> that's one of the multitude of reasons you don't use "guides".
[16:14:36] <Arkouro> yeah, no kidding apparently
[16:14:46] <lunaphyte_> also, you need to understand that you will *never* have fully encrypted email just by poking at postfix.
[16:14:53] <lunaphyte_> guides and howtos are not for beginners.
[16:15:47] <Arkouro> To clarify, postfix is only sending email for an application on a linux system, there is no full-fledged IMAP server or anything and it doesn't intend to receive email.
[16:16:02] <lunaphyte_> oh, that's what this is all about?
[16:16:08] <lunaphyte_> you don't want postfix then.
[16:16:13] <Arkouro> What should I use?
[16:16:31] <lunaphyte_> you don't need to install a mail server just to send mail. that would be crazy.
[16:16:35] <lunaphyte_> you just need a null client.
[16:17:23] <lunaphyte_> i'd recommend msmtp. it can do encryption, as you indicate you desire.
[16:17:57] <Arkouro> I shall look into that, especially since I want to cut down on security risk where ever possible and that having a full mail server increases that risk, especially since I don't need it
[16:18:01] <lunaphyte_> [but keep in mind my earlier comment about fully encrypted mail]
[16:18:10] <lunaphyte_> indeed it does.
[16:18:25] <Arkouro> of course
[16:18:28] <lunaphyte_> if you're of that mindset, you're already headed in the right direction.
[16:19:22] <Arkouro> Yeah, I was just confused by some basic searching that had sent me in the wrong direction. Thanks for clarifying this for me.
[16:19:29] <lunaphyte_> sure thing.
[16:19:36] <survietamine> !nullclient
[16:19:36] <knoba> survietamine: "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.
[16:19:39] <lunaphyte_> really, you should be using both though
[16:20:18] <lunaphyte_> your null client should use encryption when connecting to your msa, and your null client should authenticate against the msa so it can submit its message for processing.

[16:20:27] <pecanha> Hello. I'm trying to setup dspam with postfix, and after reading postfix documentation I'm having some doubts. I'm using mysql to store virtual aliases. And I need to redirect two specific spam|ham at domain dot org aliases to a dspam-retrain script. I'm doing this using transport_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/transport. My transport file contains something like: spam at domain dot org dspam-retrain:spam. And I've setup a dspam-retrain unix - n
[16:20:27] <pecanha> n - 10 pipe flags=Ru user=dspam argv=/etc/dspam/dspam-retrain $nexthop $sender $recipient ... service on master.cf refering. When I send an email to spam at domain dot org it seems that its checking virtual_alias_maps before transporting. Do I need to do something else or do I missing something to change this order?
[16:20:31] <lunaphyte_> oh, no. encryption and authentication
[16:21:05] <lunaphyte_> !tell pecanha welcome
[16:21:05] <knoba> pecanha: "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.
[16:21:14] <Arkouro> ah yeah, both will be in place for this system. I think confusion is going arise when having to deal with sending to an exchange server.
[16:21:25] <lunaphyte_> why?
[16:22:01] <Arkouro> Because, of course, nobody wants to let me know how the Exchange server is configured.
[16:22:07] <lunaphyte_> oh, heh.

[16:22:23] <pecanha> lunaphyte_: hello, thanks.

[17:05:47] <Arkouro> great to hear, I got msmtp working out of the post, I tested it with a gmail account. haven't gotten so far as playing with exchange or different authentication methods
[17:06:06] <Arkouro> you recommend mutt as well? that seems to be widely accepted with msmtp, based on searching around
[17:06:20] <lunaphyte_> do you have a lot of computers which will be submitting mail like this one?
[17:07:06] <Arkouro> No, early on it will be just 1. Later on I estimate no more than 5, 10 at the absolute max
[17:07:10] <lunaphyte_> mutt is an mua.
[17:07:20] <lunaphyte_> so far given your use case, it's not relevant.
[17:07:33] <Arkouro> that's what I figured
[17:08:44] <Arkouro> Now it looks like it will come down to the configuration of servers out of my control

[19:23:25] <darkdrgn2k> Hi all
[19:23:40] <darkdrgn2k> is it possible to have postfix only accept relayed e-mails for a certain domain on a specific set of ips
[19:23:52] <darkdrgn2k> is if random email server relays it wont accept it but if a specific one does it will
[19:24:06] <lunaphyte_> you use authentication for that.
[19:24:19] <darkdrgn2k> lunaphyte: SMTP servers dont authenticate..
[19:24:34] <darkdrgn2k> the incomming email is from a mail server... not a mail client
[19:24:53] <lunaphyte_> what is the actual problem?
[19:25:01] <adaptr> why would it send these messages to your server ?
[19:25:15] <darkdrgn2k> i have a mailserver on the outside..... i have a fax server on the inside
[19:25:26] <darkdrgn2k> im configuing fax to email
[19:25:43] <darkdrgn2k> postfix was setup with a seperate domain, but i dont want randon joe emailing out faxes...
[19:25:59] <adaptr> you said FAX to email
[19:26:02] <darkdrgn2k> but peopel on the main server can
[19:26:05] <darkdrgn2k> sorry
[19:26:06] <darkdrgn2k> email to fax
[19:26:16] <adaptr> yes, you use authentication for that
[19:26:39] <darkdrgn2k> how? when the email is relayed from an smtp mail server
[19:26:46] <adaptr> the fax server maintains a list of valid senders. it rejects messages not from these valid senders
[19:27:02] <darkdrgn2k> yes but problem is a valid sender can be spoofed
[19:27:15] <adaptr> authentication on the mail server guarantees that the sender is not spoofed
[19:27:31] <darkdrgn2k> yes
[19:27:57] <patdk-wk> only if you add in sasl constraints
[19:27:59] <darkdrgn2k> yes but what stops some one from using a differnt mail relay to send the emal
[19:28:16] <patdk-wk> darkdrgn2k, dkim? spf?
[19:28:20] <adaptr> darkdrgn2k: you mean your fax server will randomly accept mail ?
[19:28:30] <adaptr> you limit it to ONLY the mail relay, obviously
[19:28:40] <darkdrgn2k> only to a specific domain
[19:28:46] <patdk-wk> oh, doing that
[19:28:53] <adaptr> ...no, only FROM a specific MACHINE.
[19:29:09] *** Uranio has joined #postfix
[19:29:24] *** codepython777 has quit IRC
[19:29:26] <darkdrgn2k> any way to do a "specific machine" for a specific domain?
[19:29:37] <adaptr> you do not NEED that. you control the mail relay
[19:29:50] <darkdrgn2k> ie fax.domain.com must coem from X but everythignelse.domain.com can come from anywhere
[19:29:52] <adaptr> but yes, that is possible with restriction classes
[19:30:16] <adaptr> no, te fax server will ONLY receive MAIL from that one machine. there is no "everything else"
[19:30:41] <darkdrgn2k> what if it doubles as a genereal email server too for a differnt ip
[19:31:06] <adaptr> then you lied.
[19:31:11] * patdk-wk wants to see it do a belly dance
[19:31:36] <darkdrgn2k> well now tha ti think about it i wont be receceived any other domains emails so i dont care.. LOL
[19:32:19] <darkdrgn2k> so just allow relay from ip address x y and z and im done
