Plesk 12.x / Linux :: Postfix Mails Rejected By Google - Identified As Bulk Spam
Nov 20, 2014
I run a server and have ONLY problems if i am sending mails to domains hosted by google ...
OSUbuntu 12.04.5 LTS
Plesk version12.0.18 Update #24, last updated at Nov 20, 2014 06:32 AM
Here a little bit about my configuration:
a) I have set a Reverse DNS (xyz.mydomain1.com) - My hostname!
b) i run 4 domains on this server (mydomain1, mydomain2, mydomain3, mydomain4)
c) my DNS settings are made by myself in my Domain Provider account
d) i also set SPF records and i use Domain Keys
Everything works like a charm but following now the outputs with my problems:
I just upgraded my Plesk 11.5 on Plesk version: 12.0.18 Update #9 , and after the upgrade the Postfix stop working. And forwarding, receiving is not working at all and I am getting message bellow.
I have a hard problem with my VPS. I have postfix as mail server on plesk 12 under ubuntu 12.
I dont know why the outgoing mails of all my domains in my servers are getting spam in servers like gmail, yahoo, hotmail...
I'm using mxtoolbox to fix errors and warnings and finally fixed all of them, but my mails are still outgoing to spam.
In mxtoolbox actually I have no mail server errors / warning, u can see it with, for example, this one of my domains: [URL] ....
Headers:
This message is an automatic response from Port25's authentication verifier service at verifier.port25.com. The service allows email senders to perform a simple check of various sender authentication mechanisms. It is provided free of charge, in the hope that it is useful to the email community.
My issue started ince a couple of months seemed to increase with update to Plesk 12.0 (though I can't guarantee it).I am using Centos 6.5, all updated. What happens is that postfix usage starts to increase without any apparent reason (during week-ends for example). Then postfix is not responding anymore.
I've had problem with the VPS getting blacklisted alot lately.
Anyway, I think the problems resolved now and we've not been blacklisted for over 2 days, yet there still seems to be alot of e-mail servers rejecting mails from the server due to blacklisting.
I migrate from plesk 9.5 to another server with plesk 12.0.18, and then outlook and mail default from iphone don't work, but tunderbird and webmail work well.
In outlook when i put the same configuration than tunderbird and i try to send mail out from my domain said this error:
How do I stop getting all those Received-SPF: headers prepended to the mailman list? It tags on a header that's well over 32K for a message that is less than 1K.
I installed recently Postfix + Dovecot (yum) on a CentOS 5.1 test box. The configuration went OK, I can telnet on port 25, 587 and 465 with no problems.
Is there a command to turn on antivirus for all mailboxes without having to enter each mailbox and update manually. I have over 800 mailboxes which need updating,
I would like each of my clients who have a dedicated IP address and an SSL certificate to be able to use their own domain name (and own certificate) when sending mail on ports 465 or 587. I have managed to change the default certificate used by Postfix to my own server's certificate, but I want users to use their OWN IP address and SSL certificate when sending, so this is not an option.
I have been able to update Dovecot to use a specific certificate for each IP address, but I can't seem to update Postfix. I was trying to follow these instructions but my postfix master.cf was quite different than the poster's file and I didn't succeed: [URL] ....
I know many people will simply say "it can't be done" or "just get the users to use the shared IP address", but I know there must be some workaround to make this work, even if it means manually updating the config file after every Plesk update. I'm even prepared (if possible) to have Plesk abandon management of Postfix and have me manage it manually, if that's even an option.
Each migration in the last years I'm running into this bug that Postfix wants to run on port 587 even though this is turned OFF in the Plesk Panel.
Sometimes it does this after some update.
Because another process is running on port 587 this means that postfix does not start and I have some downtime until I "repair" this.
"Repairing" means going into Plesk panel and turning ON SMTP-Auth.... Wait a moment for it to apply and then turning it OFF again....
This unwanted behaviour can be easily reproduced by having this option turned off in the Plesk panel and then running /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/mchk --without-spam
This will end up in a non-running postfix if another process is already running on port 587.
This shouldn't be happening. Especially because I reported this behaviour years ago..
on a fresh debian 7 64bit openvz system we actually have a problem with the new plesk 12 feature of limiting outgoing mails.We migrated about 25 systems to plesk, this is the first that makes problems.If limiting outgoing mails is activated (i double-checked all possible checkboxes in plesk) a fresh mailbox gives us the following error while trying to send via smtp:
Aug 15 13:09:32 2d4 postfix/smtpd[8645]: connect from unknown[XX.XX.XX.XX] Aug 15 13:09:32 2d4 postfix/smtpd[8645]: E9AF61C58851: client=unknown[XX.XX.XX.XX], sasl_method=PLAIN, sasl_username=XX@XXX.XX Aug 15 13:09:32 2d4 greylisting filter[8651]: Starting greylisting filter... Aug 15 13:09:32 2d4 /usr/lib/plesk-9.0/psa-pc-remote[8611]: handlers_stderr: SKIP
[code]....
After deactivating the feature all mail is sent without any problems. We use postfix + dovecot.
There are several big domains that frequently defer accepting mail from us causing long delays or rejections. Google, AOL, and Yahoo are examples. I'm considering trying the suggestions found in this online posting regarding rate limiting the sending of messages to those domains. In the below URL, please see the section titled "Different policies for different domains"...URL....
Would these changes be safe to make on a CentOS 6.4 server running Plesk 11.0.9 with Postfix 2.8.4? Would any special modifications for Plesk be necessary?
At this moment, all mail (no matter what domain) goes out straight to its destination. We want to send the mail trough a antispam firewall before it enters the internet.
I 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?
after reinstalling the mta / postfix / smtp (because I couldn't send mails) my plesk is crashed.
I wanted to log in as admin but it doesn't accept my PW. Now with root and then it wants me to accept the license.
Now I copy all my /var/www/vhosts/ maybe when I do the setup steps in plesk it will overwrite all my website content... I hope not all plesk settings are away.
Why I pay every month money for a license? The trouble and work I have with Plesk..
I recently upgraded phones and forgot that my google authenticator keys were on my old phone. I am now unable to log in to the Plesk admin panel. I of course still have SSH access. How can I disable the Google Authenticator so I can regain access?
