[00:21:25] <rob0> Hmmm, trurl, hostmaster and postmaster are my two most spammed addresses. I sure wouldn't want to do that.
[00:22:51] <trurl> rob0: i'll keep an eye on it, if it gets to noisy i can always restrict them more
[00:24:33] <trurl> but since no one began to scream i figure there are no totally dumb mistakes in my restrictions? i'll give them a try.
[00:24:49] <trurl> my server is small, about 100 mails/day, 50% get rejected

[02:05:46] <DrFoo> If I send outgoing mail through postfix, does it send a copy to the MDA "sent" folder?
[02:06:29] *** mtu has joined #postfix
[02:07:03] <pj> DrFoo: no
[02:07:16] <DrFoo> any way to get this functionality?
[02:07:33] <pj> That's generally done by your MUA
[02:07:56] *** tm has quit IRC
[02:08:03] <DrFoo> So there's an MDA, MTA, and and MUA?
[02:08:11] <pj> !mua
[02:08:12] <knoba> pj: "mua" : Mail User Agent: software used for mail message retrieval, commonly known as an email client, such as mutt, Evolution and Thunderbird
[02:08:36] <rob0> You could implement it, but you'd have to know a lot. And to ensure that it works, you'd have to limit what MUAs you'll allow.
[02:08:42] <mtu> if i decide to roll my own to defeat this problem, what version do i need?
[02:08:43] <rob0> DrFoo, ^^
[02:09:43] <pj> mtu: if you want to do it yourself then use dovecot for your MDA with seive and implement a seive rule to put a copy in the Sent folder.
[02:10:03] <DrFoo> I'm thinking of running postfix / sogo, but depending on whether I send via phone, webmail, or client I'll have different sent folders... and I use it quite often...
[02:10:08] <pj> I'm sure you can also do something similar with procmail
[02:10:16] <mtu> pj: think you mean rob0, not me
[02:10:43] <pj> mtu: sorry, I meant DrFoo
[02:11:27] <adaptr> mtu: the changelog or readme would seem like a good start
[02:11:54] <pj> mtu: TLS is implemented through openssl, whatever versions of TLS are supported by your copy of openssl will be what is supported by postfix.
[02:12:17] <adaptr> and building against the wrong openssl headers is FUN
[02:12:26] <pj> hehehe
[02:13:17] <mtu> pj: in this case, that's not quite the case. i have a server that works only with TLSv1, not TLSv1_1 or TLSv1_2. however, my postfix (2.9.6) doesn't know about TLSv1_1 and _2, so it does not exclude then
[02:13:24] <mtu> which means they are used, causing the connection to fail
[02:13:46] <mtu> i can retrace this problem by choosing -tls1 or -tls1_1 with openssl on the command line
[02:14:10] <adaptr> sounds as if yuo are confused. openssl - and hence the versions postfix supports - are not part of postfix.
[02:14:20] <twb> That doesn't match my understanding of how negotiation works
[02:14:34] <adaptr> also, yes, negotiation is downwards-failsafe
[02:14:53] <adaptr> although I remember there may be differences between clients and servers in how downgrading is handled
[02:15:02] <rob0> I'd suggest that mtu post to the mailing list. Viktor will reply.
[02:15:21] <adaptr> mtu: yes. the problem would be that you are trying to run postfix version X against an openssl version that does not support what version X supports.
[02:15:31] <adaptr> which is the opposite of what you stated initially
[02:16:31] <mtu> adaptr: no. my postfix doesn't know about tls1_1 and _2, but openssl does. and sadly, it's not just me, but the entire ubuntu 12.04 LTS
[02:16:46] <mtu> rob0: thanks, i'll do that
[02:17:03] <pj> !tell mtu smtpd_tls_protocols
[02:17:03] <knoba> mtu: "smtpd_tls_protocols" : list of tls protocols that the postfix smtp server will exclude or include with opportunistic tls encryption. this parameter SHOULD be left at its default empty value, allowing all protocols to be used with opportunistic tls. this feature is available in Postfix 2.6 and later
[02:17:34] <mtu> knoba: the problem concerns smtp_tls, not smtpd_tls
[02:17:53] <mtu> err, pj: the problem concerns smtp_tls, not smtpd_tls
[02:18:15] <adaptr> !smtp_tls_protocols
[02:18:15] <knoba> adaptr: Error: "smtp_tls_protocols" is not a valid command.
[02:18:15] <pj> mtu: there's an smtp version of that setting as well
[02:18:30] <pj> there is, just that knoba doesn't know about it
[02:18:38] <pj> !tell mtu postconf_5
[02:18:38]
<knoba> mtu: "postconf_5" : For documentation on all main.cf settings see the postconf(5) man page either type `man 5 postconf' into your shell or browse to http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html.
[02:18:53] <adaptr> or just run postconf |grep proto
[02:19:17] <mtu> i know about that setting. i used a tls_map file to tweak ot for the server causing the problem
[02:19:48] <mtu> but if i set the protocol to TLSv1, that doesn't prevent the call to openssl from trying to use tls1_2 and failing
[02:20:28] <mtu> it's probably just a freaky server, but the fact of the matter is that openssl works with tls1 and _not_ tls1_1 - but i have no way of telling postfix to exclude tls1_1
[02:20:57] <mtu> in other words, my postfix version doesn't recognize !TLSv1_1. now, i thought Viktor had added that in 2.10.0, but it appears i was mistaken.
[02:21:29] <pj> mtu: well you can specify the ciphers to exclude with smtp_tls_exclude_ciphers
[02:22:09] <mtu> i cannot exclude a cipher that postfix doesn't know, which is the case here for TLSv1_1
[02:22:53] <pj> well, you need to talk to victor, I guess, go to the ml for support.
[02:26:02] <DrFoo> So if I understand this correctly, both postfix and dovecot have IMAP servers. If I instead use Dovecot for IMAP and use postfix for SMTP.. would this sync sent folders? I just read something where most clients copy the message to the sent folder of the IMAP server via APPEND...
[02:26:22] <rob0> !imap
[02:26:23]
<knoba> rob0: "imap" : IMAP is an application layer Internet protocol that allows a client (MUA) to access mailboxes on a remote server (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IMAP). Postfix does not provide IMAP (or POP3) service; see !courier or !dovecot for common IMAP/POP3 choices.
[02:27:43] <DrFoo> ah... looks like I'll be doing that..
[02:29:06] <lunaphyte_> i wonder where you'd get the impression postfix is an imap server
[02:32:33] <mtu> meh, okay. i was wrong about the syntax, it's not !TLSv1_1 but !TLSv1.1. doesn't help with my problem though, so i guess openssl is at fault.
[02:32:46] <DrFoo> I think the terms are used so heavily in the context of postfix that I may have came to the wrong conclusion.
[02:32:57] <DrFoo> I'm not a mail expert by any means...
[02:33:06] <DrFoo> Any word on Cyrus vs Dovecot?
[02:33:12] <mtu> and for the record, that TLSv1.1 support was introduced in 2.9.2
[02:34:54] <twb> IMO use dovecot not cyrus, end of story
[02:35:26] <lunaphyte_> DrFoo: dovecot
[02:36:24] <mtu> i've never set up cyrus, but dovecot is easy and performs well on several tens of thousands of mails for me
[02:37:18] <lunaphyte_> i've used cyrus, i've used courier, i've used imapd, i've used dovecot. i prefer dovecot
[02:37:40] <DrFoo> I was just curious because everyone I've chatted with pretty much mentions Dovecot, but I downloaded the sogo test VM image and it uses Cyrus... wasn't sure if this was better or if it's a Coke / Pepsi thing
[02:38:54] <lunaphyte_> for clueful people it is a personal preference, yes.
[02:39:09] <twb> IME only old people like cyrus
[02:39:16] <twb> because they learned it when it was the least bad choice
[02:39:30] <lunaphyte_> rest assured that the vast majority of people readily espousing their opinions are not clueful.
[02:39:31] <mtu> cyrus has been around longer, so some people stick to it
[02:39:43] <mtu> like with fetchmail and getmail, the younger one is much better

[06:34:17] <AbrarSyed> Hi guys
[06:34:48] <AbrarSyed> So this time im trying with a fresh install of postfix. I purged and removed it, and then re-installed it
[06:35:18] <AbrarSyed> I can send mail to gmail and stuff if I locally use "telnet localhost 25"
[06:35:29] *** zerick has quit IRC
[06:35:43] <AbrarSyed> however... on the same machine, if I use the externl host name "telnet mail.forgeessentials.com 25"
[06:35:50] <AbrarSyed> suddenly it gives me this error
[06:36:03] <AbrarSyed> 554 5.7.1 <sacabrarsyed at gmail dot com>: Relay access denied
[06:36:58] *** zerick has joined #postfix
[06:37:51] <AbrarSyed> there is no log file... /var/log/mail.log doesnt exist
[06:38:07] <AbrarSyed> nor does anything that starts with 'mail' exist in that directory
[06:39:51] <waldi> then check your syslog config
[06:45:51] <AbrarSyed> where is that?
[06:45:56] <AbrarSyed> oh.. that
[06:49:15] <waldi> no. you need to read it and show where the postfix logging is going to
[06:49:56] <waldi> sorry, paste2org is in the past. i can only reach ipv6 destinations right now
[06:50:16] <AbrarSyed> the config defines /var/log/mail.log
[06:53:24] <AbrarSyed> and aboutpaste2, I like it cuz of the UI.. pastebin is ugly.

[13:39:58] <pj> xmj: no, your question was if a particular line was valid for master.cf. The answer is it looks syntactically valid to me. What I think likely is happening is that something is not working right on your postfix setup and you seem to want to troubleshoot it by guessing at config lines in various files and asking questions about individual lines completely out of any context that could lend any support to being able to give a valid
[13:39:59] <pj> answer to the question.

[13:44:24] <pj> as I said, the syntax looks valid to me. That does not mean it will do whatever it is you expect it to do in your postfix setup.

[18:13:16] <stljim> Hello postifx gurus, I have a postfix server relaying mail. How would I, using the result of 'client=onehost.domain.com' forward/relay all mail from onehost.domain.com to a specific email address? Kinda of a catch-all for that one host?
[18:13:42] <stljim> would that be done wihth virtual_alias_domains?
[18:15:17] *** jad_jay has joined #postfix
[18:15:29] *** afuentes has quit IRC
[18:15:51] <xmj> the catchall thing works for me with virtual_mailbox_domains and virtual_mailbox_map being a postgres query over a users table (a at b dot com) and aliases (a@, @b.com, c at b dot com -> a at b dot com)
[18:21:02] *** afuentes has joined #postfix
[18:22:23] <stljim> xmj: I'm hoping to keep this simple.. (and I'm a mysql not a postfix guy =) .. But I guess I'm wondering if a virtual_alias_domain can be the fqdn of a host and if so, Can (how) would forward all mail from the virtual_alias_domain to a specif email address. Using virtaul_alias_maps work by recipient not source (from what I can tell)
[18:23:15] <trurl> what is a decent upper limit for the size of mails? i don't care about the overall mailbox size, "we" are 7 users, there's enough disc space...
[18:23:21] <stljim> With source being the client=somehost.domain.com
[18:23:34] <xmj> stljim: doesn't have to be. trying out postfix in a VM, with the "real" MX for the addresses i'm trying out far far away
[18:24:20] <stljim> trurl: mail should not be used as a file distribuiton method.. LOL.. we've set a limit of 20M.. but that's just us.
[18:24:23] <xmj> stljim: no idea, m'bad
[18:25:26] <tuxick> krw
[18:26:03] <trurl> stljim: 20M is _way_ too small looking at some real life examples...
[18:26:03] *** bungalo has quit IRC
[18:26:33] <trurl> there are single jpegs that size ;)
[18:26:34] <stljim> :xmj Not sure I know the _real_ diff between virtual_alias_domains and virtual_mailbox_domains
[18:28:53] <stljim> trurl: IF you're using any mail AV or filtering.. seeing if those have a max size limit might be a good start, beyond that, ask yourself at what point, in terms of file size, should another way be used to distribute a file? 20M, 100M, 500M?

[18:31:05] <rob0> stljim, as I said (or perhaps, SHOULD have said) yesterday: no, it is not simple.
[18:31:30] <trurl> stljim: i thought there's maybe something like a common value used by most large mx's
[18:31:32] <stljim> rob0: Hey there.. yea I'm really wresting with this one
[18:32:23] <rob0> I agree with the 20M size. Postfix default is 10 million bytes, but I think you'll see large providers accepting up to 20MB.
[18:32:24] <stljim> trurl: we have ~2K users.. and keep our limit low.. that's why god created NTFS/NFS shares
[18:33:38] *** dvee has quit IRC
[18:33:46] <rob0> trurl, just telnet to various port 25 and look at your EHLO responses.
[18:37:09] *** freezey has quit IRC
[18:37:34] <jelly> I tell users we accept up to 13MB attachments
[18:38:09] <jelly> gross vs. net bytes just makes them more confused
[18:38:15] <rob0> It's impossible to be exact about that, yes.
[18:38:41] <trurl> gmail: 35M
[18:38:50] <trurl> rob0: yeah, good idea
[18:39:10] <rob0> You do understand about MIME encoding, right?
[18:44:12] <trurl> who?
[18:47:17] <trurl> web.de: 70M. mh.
[18:49:06] <jelly> how did they come up with exactly SIZE 35882577
[18:49:23] <tuxick> made it up
[18:50:22] <jelly> it vaguely looks like a calculatory word
[18:50:42] <rob0> Not relevant, but related: do you know why good recipes for Irish stew call for exactly 239 beans?

[19:04:33] <stljim> Crap, so virtual_alias_domains = xio99prdora01.blah.com in main.cf and @xio99prdora01.blah.com me at blah dot com in virtual doesn't work!
[19:05:55] <rob0> well no, I told you yesterday what to try: restriction class and REDIRECT or FILTER action
[19:06:01] *** wdp has quit IRC
[19:08:46] <stljim> rob0: grumble..
[19:10:06] <rob0> sure, you can set a virtual_alias_domains and use a wildcard, but that's global, it won't distinguish by origin client. You need check_client_access for that.
[19:10:16] <rob0> !restriction_classes
[19:10:16] <knoba> rob0: "restriction_classes" : see !restriction_class
[19:10:18] <rob0> !restriction_class
[19:19:09] <stljim> rob0: What about a PCRE header check? I'm still reading access(5).. so I'm not giving up on that either..
[19:22:37] *** KNERD has joined #postfix
[19:27:43] <stljim> rob0: so I can combine access(5) with header_checks(5) with either regex (wonder if out-of-the-box RHEL6.4 postfix supports pcre or only regex)
[19:28:42] *** Cromulent has joined #postfix
[19:30:08] *** jarif has quit IRC
[19:31:43] <rob0> header_checks offers a subset of access targets. Also note that you cannot check a header which has not yet been added. header_checks are rarely the right answer.
[19:31:56] <rob0> (It might work, though)

[20:07:30] *** RalfJ has joined #postfix
[20:07:56] <RalfJ> Hi everyone - is it possible to configure postfix such that it compares the reolsved HELO hostname with the IP the SMTP connection comes from, and rejects in case of mismatch?
[20:13:24] *** dimitry7 has quit IRC
[20:14:30] <twobithacker> I don't think so, and you'd probably drop a lot of mail if you did it
[20:15:27] <RalfJ> well, I'd like ti find out if I would
[20:15:41] <RalfJ> my university's mail server does this, and I kind of like it
[20:17:35] <RalfJ> I don't like looking at the rDNS as that would punish people who try to run a mailserver at home and have a crappy ISP - but even in such a situation you could set up a proper dyndns and use that for your HELO name
[20:18:05] *** davlefou_ has joined #postfix
[20:22:23] <jelly-home> not sure anyone sane runs a mail server at home when a VPS with proper rDNS is 2€ a month

[21:05:13] *** davlefou_ has quit IRC
[21:05:57] <RalfJ> is there anything specific I need to set to tell postfix (when operating as client) to present a certificate to the server (client-side SSL authentication)? I set smtp_tls_{cert,key}_file but I am under the impression it doesnt actually use the certificate (theres nothing mentioned in the log, at tls_log_level 2)

[21:25:23] *** Toerkeium has quit IRC
[21:25:57] <adaptr> does the server offer TLS?
[21:29:41] <RalfJ> adaptr: yes it does, but I just figured out I forgot to set smtpd_tls_ask_ccert=yes
[21:30:15] <RalfJ> now I hope this doesnt interfere with regular servers connecting to that port (its not used by clients, so there it doesnt matter)
[21:30:22] <RalfJ> but at least authentication works now :D

[22:15:50] <AbrarSyed> I want to setup Confluence to use postfix as its SMPT server, so confluence can send out email notifcations
[22:16:11] <AbrarSyed> but when I have it test the emailing, Postfix says that "relay access denied"
