[00:16:56] <lunaphyte> the sensible default is to require complete, valid email addresses, rather than accepting incomplete envelopes and then trying to clean up the mess afterwards. this is a non issue in today's world. configure the client properly.
[00:17:08] <viderizer> why is localhost.$mydomain included as a default for mydestinations?
[00:18:36] <lunaphyte> viderizer: i wouldn't worry about it. if you want it, leave it, if not, change it
[00:19:16] <lunaphyte> it's simply because there can be varying ways in which "local" may be expressed
[00:19:31] <lunaphyte> varying over the years, and among operating systems
[00:19:56] <viderizer> lunaphyte: I'm wondering what is it even supposed to mean, it certainly doesn't resolve to anything. Is it supposed to or is it some ancient reminiscent?
[00:20:17] <viderizer> ah, okay, thanks
[00:20:17] <lunaphyte> and heavens no, the generic table is not "mostly there to provide a sensible default for other MUAs". :)
[00:20:31] <lunaphyte> viderizer: have you tried postix on every os?
[00:20:42] <lunaphyte> it runs on many ;)
[00:21:59] <rob0> I can possibly answer the why
[00:22:27] <rob0> Wietse wanted Postfix to be a drop-in Sendmail replacement.
[00:22:52] <rob0> Some cron daemons send to $USER@localhost
[00:23:02] <rob0> Postfix has:
[00:23:14] <rob0> !append_dot_mydomain
[00:23:15] <knoba> rob0: "append_dot_mydomain" : a configuration parameter in the main.cf: Append the string ".$mydomain" to addresses that have no ".domain" information.
[00:23:21] <rob0> default "yes"
[00:23:42] <lunaphyte> that would be closer to a setting for the purpose of "mostly there to provide a sensible default for other MUAs"
[00:24:23] <lunaphyte> but even then, in this day and age, software which is not configurable is rather archaic
[00:24:30] <rob0> But indeed, no idea why that would be a problem. In fact most Postfix defaults are designed and chosen to cause the fewest problems.
[00:25:07] <viderizer> it isn't a problem, I just got curious for the reason of it existing
[00:25:18] <lunaphyte> viderizer: it resolves for me :)
[00:25:33] <lunaphyte> that said, i wouldn't ever use it
[00:25:44] <viderizer> lunaphyte: FreeBSD?
[00:25:49] <rob0> And anyway, it would be reckless to rely on defaults for $mydestination
[00:25:59] <lunaphyte> part of the reason it resolves for me is because i have a thorough dns setup
[00:26:14] <lunaphyte> viderizer: it's not solely wrt specific os default behavior
[00:27:26] <viderizer> lunaphyte: sorry, I just guessed based on the only relevant default configuration google gave me
[00:28:27] <lunaphyte> i woudn't know which os might have a default like that in hosts(5), or which os might not, mostly because if it did, i'd remove it and put it in dns where it belongs.
[00:28:38] <lunaphyte> which is, of course, host and os agnostic
[00:29:18] <viderizer> is it considered bad practice to not deliver mail to $myhostname or localhost but only hosted virtual domains?
[00:29:42] <lunaphyte> it really is remarkable how much software out there thinks it's ok to expect admins/users to do dumb stuff with hosts(5) to "solve problems"
[00:29:54] <lunaphyte> where did i just come across something the other day?
[00:30:23] <lunaphyte> viderizer: not at all
[00:30:44] *** aindilis2 has quit IRC
[00:31:43] <lunaphyte> but neither of those concepts really has anything to do with things like "hosted" or "virtual"
[00:31:52] <lunaphyte> everything is "hosted" ;)
[00:32:15] *** Haudegen has quit IRC
[00:32:57] <lunaphyte> and virtual - well, that probably doens't quite mean what you think it means, if you're coming at this from the perspective of http
[00:34:40] <viderizer> lunaphyte: please elaborate, I'm not sure if I know what you mean
[00:38:07] *** IronEagle has quit IRC
[00:42:54] *** infides has quit IRC
[00:43:56] <lunaphyte> just that people often get hung up on vague abstract notions about the meaning of "virtual", becuase they learned one set of concepts when they installed apache httpd
[00:44:56] <lunaphyte> in postfix, virtual mean one single, specific, thing. it means mail will delivered with the virtual(8) mda, which is one of the two mdas provided with postfix.
[00:46:46] <viderizer> yes, I learned that at some point while reading the docs
[00:46:49] <lunaphyte> the term is best referenced in address_class_readme [and not to confuse things, i suppose it's necessary to say there are also virtual aliases, which are sort of a different thing, and don't relate to mail delivery
[00:46:53] <lunaphyte> ]

[01:54:30] <viderizer> hm, virtual_alias_maps applies to all mail?
[01:56:08] <rob0> true. And it's a slight note to attach to what lunaphyte said about "single meaning of virtual".
[01:56:51] <rob0> There are two manual pages called virtual, section 5 (virtual_alias_maps format) and section 8 (the MDA.)
[01:59:42] <viderizer> what would be the most reasonable way to only alias when the domain matches $virtual_mailbox_domains
[02:00:23] <pj> include the domain as part of the keys in virtual_alias_maps.
[02:02:20] <rob0> lots of SQL tricks might be at your disposal if you're using SQL of some kind.
[02:03:20] <pj> yep
[02:04:23] *** NyB has left #postfix
[02:05:04] <pj> and if not, postfix 3.0 now includes ways of combining db maps in complex ways to produce desired results as well.
[02:06:03] <pj> !database
[02:07:44] <pj> you might be able to get creative with pipemap and unionmap to do what you want, though I'm not entirely certain.
[02:08:55] <rob0> BTW, every recipient address will continue to be looked up in virtual_alias_maps; what we're talking about will not change that fact.
[02:10:47] <pj> well the only exception is if no_address_mappings is set.

[03:03:52] *** linuxmonger has joined #postfix
[03:04:30] <linuxmonger> Hello! I hope the coming year brings you more joy than than the past. I have a question that I've Googled and not found a satisfactory response.
[03:04:31] <linuxmonger> I'm running a Postfix server, up-to-date and working well, and I use gmvault to download my Google gmail messages.
[03:04:31] <linuxmonger> These messages appear to be properly formed, they have headers and dates and such, a blank line and then the body of the message.
[03:04:31] <linuxmonger> My question; is there an easy way to push these into postfix as is, to be delivered to a specific user, or would I need to rewrite the To: line in the header? And, either way, how do I get them into postfix?
[03:05:18] <rob0> You don't need Postfix at all. Perhaps you want an IMAP server?
[03:05:22] <rob0> !imap
[03:05:22]
<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.
[03:06:25] <linuxmonger> Pardon, the end result I'm looking for is that theses messages end up in my imap folders, sorted out by dovecot seive filters.
[03:06:33] <pj> right, you likely don't want to push these into postfix, what you really want is to transfer your google mailstore to a local mailstore.
[03:07:24] <pj> sorting with sieve filters would require that it gets processed through dovecot lmtp
[03:08:13] <linuxmonger> And it seemed that the easiest way to hand them to dovecot would be to have postfix do that.
[03:11:28] <linuxmonger> I have both (dovecot and postfix) set up and working. If there was a simple way to tell postfix that this file is to be delivered to user x, it would get a proper spam check, then pushed into dovecot for delivery to the user and filtered based on who it's from, what type of messege, etc...
[03:12:18] <pj> well, if you really want to pull the messages through postfix, then you would likely want something like fetchmail.
[03:12:23] <pj> !fetchmail
[03:12:23] <knoba> pj: "fetchmail" : a command-line tool to fetch emails from POP3/IMAP servers and send them to a (local) mail server
[03:17:55] <linuxmonger> Honest, what I want is to have a single message in a temporary file, and somehow hand it to postfix, to be delivered to user xyzzy at mydomain dot com. I have a lot of infrastructure in place to make backups of messages, filter them, share messages across multiple mailboxes, etc..
[03:19:49] <pj> then you likely just want to use the sendmail command, but it will inject via pickup, which bypasses all your smtpd_* settings.
[03:19:53] <linuxmonger> I had thought about fetchmail, but to the best of my knowledge, it can't talk to gmail, and I already have the messages on the mail server, broken down into folders of messages already processed, and to-be-processed.
[03:21:13] <pj> if you need to have the messages go through smtd_*_restrictions, then you will want something like msmtp which implements a sendmail command that then injects via smtp.
[03:21:36] <linuxmonger> With the sendmail command, I can specify the recipient on the command line, and hand it the message as a file or pipe?
[03:22:14] <pj> yes, or sendmail can read the message headers with -t
[03:22:15] <linuxmonger> I don't need to do any filtering on the sending server, I already know my level of trust with Google.
[03:23:19] <linuxmonger> The headers are currently wrong (the To: is the user at Google), changing my server to accept gmail as local would break other things.
[03:23:27] *** err-or_ has joined #postfix
[03:24:08] <pj> ok, then yes, you specify the recipients on the command line (and don't pass -t)
[03:24:40] <pj> read the sendmail(1) man page
[03:24:45] <pj> !sendmail
[03:24:46] <knoba> pj: "sendmail" : a pretty cryptic MTA that was famous in the ancient days of UNIX and still runs on a lot of mail servers. Don't confuse it with the "sendmail" command that is offered by Postfix to send emails (for compatibility reasons).
[03:24:59] <pj> I'm referring to the command, not the MTA
[03:26:29] <linuxmonger> So; 'cat message.eml | sendmail user@here' ?
[03:26:51] <pj> read the man page
[03:27:13] <pj> and that is uuoc
[03:27:38] <linuxmonger> Reading it now, thank you!
[03:27:40] *** err-or has quit IRC
[03:28:00] <pj> sendmail ... < message.eml
[03:28:03] <pj> better ^^^^
[03:28:55] <linuxmonger> Pardon, I like cats.
[03:29:27] <pj> oh, in that case: cat message.eml | cat | cat | cat | cat | sendmail ...
[03:29:54] <rob0> That's cat5 cable!
[03:29:58] <pj> hahaha
[03:32:23] <rob0> I think fetchmail could go directly to LMTP
[03:33:30] <pj> that could be helpful, but he seems to want to process the files he's already downloaded at this point.
[03:33:42] <rob0> oh
[03:34:11] <rob0> anyway, another long-term choice to consider is fetchmail + procmail
[03:34:19] <pj> anyways, I mentioned fetchmail (as opposed to getmail) be he explicitly seemed to want to go through postfix at the time.
[03:34:33] <viderizer> I just spent multiple days trying to set up my own mail server and it finally seems to work!
[03:34:36] <rob0> yep
[03:34:38] <viderizer> I feel accomplished.
[03:34:41] <pj> he mentioned wanting to process through SPAM filters, etc.
[03:34:45] <rob0> viderizer, cool
[03:35:51] <linuxmonger> I love procmail, but had to implement seive a while ago, and I don't want to try running both at the same time.
[03:35:54] <pj> linuxmonger: btw, fetchmail should work just fine with gmail, so long as it's properly configured and the gmail account is configured to allow IMAP connections.
[03:36:50] <pj> linuxmonger: yeah, I prefer sieve anyways, mainly because I'm already running dovecot, so I don't feel the need to add yet another delivery agent to my system in addition to the four that are already present between postfix and dovecot.
[03:37:31] <linuxmonger> But, the sendmail on the CLI seems to work properly, and it filtered properly, this is exactly what I wanted, than you!
[03:37:56] *** MxyzptlkFishStix has quit IRC
[03:37:57] <pj> linuxmonger: yw
[03:38:57] <linuxmonger> I was surprised that I didn't need to run it as root, even better, as I have to users pulling messages with gmvault, and there crons can do all of the processing.
[03:41:39] <linuxmonger> I just re-read my own posts, spelling mistakes on every line, I'll blame that on the alcohol. Thank you again, and have a good year!
[03:53:06] <pj> no, sendmail doesnt' need to be run as root, but you can restrict which users can use it.

[17:01:14] <swordbeta> Hi guys, I'm trying to catch all mail and send it to an external email address. I succeeded in doing so, but it's also bouncing because of the following error: VIRTUAL at mail dot domain.com> (expanded from <test at domain dot com>): unknown user: "virtual".
[17:01:18]
<swordbeta> The 'virtual' user does indeed not exist and I have set local_recipient_maps to nothing, yet it still is checking for the user. My full config can be found here: http://ur1.ca/odhgk and log here: http://ur1.ca/odhhi What am I missing?

[17:15:43] <lunaphyte> catch all mail and send it to an external email address?
[17:15:51] <lunaphyte> no, don't do that. that's a huge no no
[17:16:24] <lunaphyte> first, using wildcards is a huge no no. second, forwarding mail you receive off to other people's servers is a huge no no

[17:38:27] <kingkong> hi.
[17:38:47] <kingkong> fatal: /etc/postfix/master.cf: line 127: bad transport type: unix????????-????????????
[17:39:04] <kingkong> what that means?
[17:41:05] <kingkong> i dont see where is wrong ?
[17:42:51] <lunaphyte> it would seem you perhaps have some peculiar characters [possibly non printing, etc] in master.cf
[17:43:06] <rob0> UTF-8? Postfix configuration files should be 7-bit ASCII only.
[17:43:24] <lunaphyte> start commenting out sections form the bottom up, until you identify the offending section, then carefully rewrite that line
[17:43:28] <lunaphyte> *from
[17:43:40] <rob0> what did you use to edit it?
[17:44:23] <lunaphyte> i used netcat
[17:44:32] <rob0> check_relay_domains, ugh! And no, you must not apply DNSBL checks to submission.
[17:46:34] *** penrod has joined #postfix
[17:51:20] <kingkong> im on tablet pc
[17:51:51] <kingkong> i used sftp app to write file
[17:52:21] <lunaphyte> well, write the file normally, and see if it works.
[17:52:29] <rob0> Yeah, you need to use a regular text editor.
[17:52:44] <lunaphyte> if so, then you can debug your sftp software if you feel like investing that sort of time into things
[17:53:01] *** namyzarc has joined #postfix
[17:53:58] <kingkong> do you advice me any regular text editor for android tablet?
[17:54:45] <kingkong> i deleted 127. line and rewrite, still same
[17:55:02] <rob0> I am not familiar with that OS. Perhaps you'd want to ssh to the server and edit it there?
[17:55:04] <lunaphyte> no need for updates each time you delete a single line
[17:55:15] <lunaphyte> just let us know once you figure it out
[17:56:39] <kingkong> i rewrite. didnt delete.
[17:56:55] <kingkong> yes, i will ssh into server
[17:57:41] <kingkong> rob0: no need check_relay_domains and dnsbl ? it was for me?
[17:58:17] *** ced117 has quit IRC
[17:58:45] <rob0> Where did you see check_relay_domains? Did you look it up in the postconf(5) manual? postconf.5.html#check_relay_domains
[17:58:54] <lunaphyte> fine.
[17:59:18] <lunaphyte> no need for updates each time you make a single modification to the file
[17:59:20] <lunaphyte> is that better?
[17:59:28] <lunaphyte> further, YOU said *delete*...
[17:59:46] <kingkong> before my mail server was failing each 2-3 days was throttling. i had problem throttle and check_relay_domains fixed it.
[18:00:34] <kingkong> rob0: i found it on google solutions to solve problem
[18:00:40] <rob0> !google
[18:00:41]
<knoba> rob0: "google" : Those who use Google before reading the Postfix documentation, if fortunate, end up at http://www.postfix.org/ . If not, they end up in a jumble of bad questions, misleading or wrong answers, and outdated information.
[18:00:55] <lunaphyte> that was bad bad advice someone gave you. shame on them :(
[18:00:56] <rob0> "... and outdated information."
[18:01:29] <rob0> Might as well say it was misleading and wrong, too.
[18:01:41] <lunaphyte> :)
[18:02:14] <kingkong> oh
[18:02:27] *** penrod has left #postfix
[18:02:38] *** penrod has joined #postfix
[18:03:22] <kingkong> i added it later to fix problem already. but dnsbl was in there always. it causes throttle?
[18:03:55] <lunaphyte> it doesn't matter if it causes throttle. dnsbls do not belong threre, period.
[18:04:02] <lunaphyte> regardless of what they cause
[18:04:04] <kingkong> i must delete which ones in that line
[18:04:07] <lunaphyte> *there
[18:04:23] <rob0> well, those reject_rbl_client restrictions should normally not be reached, but they don't belong there.
[18:04:24] <kingkong> hmm
[18:04:55] *** Guest48818 has joined #postfix
[18:05:06] <rob0> reject_unauth_destination should block any brute-force-attempting submission client.
[18:05:22] <kingkong> thats right?
[18:06:17] <rob0> can't have spaces in master.cf, no, that's wrong
[18:06:36] <rob0> ah, that's the problem
[18:06:44] <kingkong> which spaces do you mean ?
[18:08:07] <kingkong> do you mean spaces after , ?
[18:08:46] <lunaphyte> correct
[18:08:56] <lunaphyte> i would also remove permit_mynetworks
[18:12:01] *** ced117 has joined #postfix
[18:23:51] <rob0> " -o smtpd_recipient_restrictions=permit_sasl_authenticated,reject"
[18:25:46] <rob0> or, in main.cf: "submission_recipient_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated, reject", and then " -o smtpd_recipient_restrictions=$submission_recipient_restrictions"
[18:26:08] <rob0> See "man 5 master" for master.cf file format documentation.

[19:00:11] <kingkong> ok i found the problem
[19:01:31] <kingkong> there was 2 spaces before inet word. i added 3 spaces and now works as 127.0.0.1:10025 inet n - - - - smtpd
[19:03:24] *** Haudegen has joined #postfix
[19:06:22] <lunaphyte> one space is enough. you have some other problem

[19:41:17] <Nit_> hum, is it ok to remove smtpd_access_maps from parent_domain_matches_subdomains ?
[19:42:03] <Nit_> for marching subdomains using .domain.tld in access_maps
[19:45:28] <lunaphyte> as a rule, i always unset parent_domain_matches_subdomains
[19:45:51] <lunaphyte> that is my recommendation
[19:47:06] <Nit_> 'cause the default value is quite loaded "parent_domain_matches_subdomains = debug_peer_list,fast_flush_domains,mynetworks,permit_mx_backup_networks,qmqpd_authorized_clients,relay_domains,smtpd_access_maps"
[19:47:22] <lunaphyte> yes
