SASL Authentication For Mail Server (Sendmail/Postfix)
Mar 18, 2007I recently moved to virtual dedicated hosting for my website, mainly because I wanted a better mail server to work with to manage a mailing list.
I have a few PHP software scripts for different things: managing affiliates and email marketing.
I want to send mail using both of those via SMTP on my new server. They both have a place to type in the host and username/password.
The problem I am noticing is SASL Authentication. They attempt to connect to the host without any trouble. However, the affiliate software fails SASL Authentication every time I try to send an email or test the email system.
Email marketing software connects when I manually send a campaign. However, users are supposed to immediately receive a confirmation mail upon opting in. In this case, it shows up as an attempt in the mail log, but it fails SASL Authentication. I don't know if it's a problem with the software or not, since it attempts to connect but fails, yet connects successfully in other cases.
My question is this: Is there another way around this? I've contacted my host to double check on the appropriate username/password to pass authentication. I will also be contacting the software developers after I receive an answer.
But if nothing comes of it, is there any way around it? Is there a place where I can have it automatically authenticate if the email is coming from a certain user, or if the attempt is being made from the same server (everything sits on the same server, I use localhost in the software to connect to the mail server). Since I am the only person who has access to the server and uses it, it seems safe to automatically authenticate if the request is being asked by the server itself...
I'm just looking for other alternatives if the software does indeed have a problem and I cannot figure it out.
Keep in mind I am very new to all this server and root access. Just a few days ago I was on a shared hosting plan, so I didn't have any access to anything. With that in mind, I know very little about mail servers, although I've been learning more over the past few days. I only stumbled upon the mail logs on my server recently by browsing files in the control panel (I'm not familiar with SSH, although I do have access to it)

Sendmail To Qmail Migration
Mar 6, 2007I am switching servers, and the new one uses QMAIL. It was easy to move existing emails between servers when both used sendmail, however ....
Is there a conversion tool or proceedure? I searched but was unable to locate anything online.
QMAIL is not a replacement on an existing server, it is installed on a new server (working fine) and I must bring existing sendmail data over.
Qmail Sendmail Failure
Jul 2, 2007I have a weird Issue with my Qmail program. It happened when I separated webmaster@domain, postmaster@domain, and admin@domain into separate e-mail accounts, instead of having them as aliases of each other. Now the standard server and anti-virus automated e-mails all get bounced, and the bounce messages are overwhelming my admin account.
Also randomly some important messages from approved senders also get bounced and end up in there, but with the sheer quantity of messages (100s per day) I have no way of going through and filtering them out. All spam get's failure notice's, but that's how it should be.
I'm a web designer, not a webmaster, but I ended up in charge of this and can't figure out how to fix it. Some insight into the possible cause would be much appreciated.
Here's a sample e-mail:

Sendmail/qmail Working Sporadically
Dec 14, 2006I've just moved over to a VPS package with startlogic and am running into a problem with having mail sent from my new server. Basically, mail is backing up in the mail queue and is failing to be sent, but then after a long time (a few days) it, or at least some of it, will suddenly be sent successfully for no apparent reason.
In the meantime the mail is backing up in the mail queue. Looking at the qmail logs I'm seeing lots of "Sorry,_I_wasn't_able_to_establish_an_SMTP_connection" type of errors, and occasional "Sorry,_I_couldn't_find_any_host_named_localhost.localdomain" errors (though the SMTP ones are far more common place).
I've gone through the plesk/virtuozzo mail server options and they seem fine, and it does send some mail through, just very sporadically and up to about 5 days late.

Plesk 12.x / Linux :: Can't Switch From Qmail To Postfix
Jul 21, 2015I am unable to switch from qmail to postfix via the control panel. It opens a new window that just hangs and never loads. While waiting for it to load, I see these 2 processes running..

But after waiting 20 minutes, the browser never loaded and the two proceses remain. So I killed both processes and removed /tmp/psa-installer.lock and started again. The same thing happened.
Is there a way to fix this? If not, is there an easy way to switch MTAs from the command line?

Plesk 12.x / Linux :: Postfix - Mails Sent Through Sendmail Binary Blocked Because Of Wrong HELO
Jun 23, 2014My server is using Centos 6.5... I updated from Plesk 11.5 to 12 last week and postfix to 2.8.17.
Since then, all mails sent using the sendmail binary (notifications, mail forwards...) are being rejected with a wrong HELO hostname: localhost.
It seems that sendmail is using locahost as a HELO tag which is not accepted. Here is the following error:
