Postfix On Suse Is Not Working
I have a server which runs suse linux on it. Postfix is already installed on it.
But, the problem is i am not able to send mail using root. I mean using mail -v command.
I could see the following in mail logs. I know 2 files main.cf and master.cf are there.
Not, sure what to change and how.
Nov 21 21:17:56 CSIDB3 postfix/smtp[14577]: connect to mx3.domain.com [x.x.x.x]: Connection timed out (port 25)

The same thing happens will Gmail also. I think outgoing mail is not working at all.

SuSE Vs. RHEL
Anyone out there have experience with SuSE over RedHat? RHEL is obviously the generalized Enterprise version used across most commercial hosting companies, but I'm interested in hearing about some SuSE experiences people have had. It looks like SoftLayer offers SuSE and a couple VPS hosting companies do the same. I'm wondering how many large-scale sites are run on this operating system.

Suse Webserver - Who Does Them
I am having trouble finding any providers that provide Opensuse on their configs. So far, the only one seems to be 1&1 and I certainly do not want to be going near them anytime soon. Does anyone know of a reputable company that can provide Opensuse based servers?

Does Anyone Use SUSE Linux
I have been trying to compare Red Hat to SUSE Linux, and can't really come to a definitive solution. I can't seem to find anyone that uses SUSE (Well, hardly anyway), but I found out that they have over double to market share that Red Hat has so somebody is definitely using them. I also noticed that SUSE is cheaper too. Based on your experiences, what are some of the pros / cons both ways? Who offers better product training (I wan't to get certified directly)? Who has better product support? Is AppArmor better than SELinux? By the way, I am only looking for commercial linux distributions. Specifically companies that offer product training.

SusE / MAC X-Server Backup
I'm working with a local startup and we are looking into potential backup solutions. We have roughly 9 servers all running some variation of susE linux (some straight susE and some X Server which runs off susE). We are needing a backup solution that will allow us to securely get data off the servers on a regular interval. We are unable to move the data off site as we are running on a single T1 line with moderate utilization, certainly not enough BW to go off site.

Suse, Debian, Fedora Or CentOS
I will be dropping my shared-hosting plan and ordering a small VPS as soon as I can decide on which operating sytem to use. It seems that most companies offer the following choices: Suse, Debian, Fedora and CentOS. I freely admit that I am a full-fledged n00b when it comes to linux and will be learning as I go, the problem is I just don't know where to start because I'm not familiar with any of them. I have at least heard of Suse, Debian and Fedora before, but didn't even know this CentOS existed until yesterday... and yet, it seems to be one of the more popular choices. So I was wondering if some of you seasoned VPS veterans here could recommend an OS, tell me what the differences are, or otherwise share any experience you might have with any of them.

Setting Up A Domain Name SUSE 10 Runing From Home
I've got SUSE 10 loaded and installed at home. My ISP service is highspeed from Comcast (speed right now not an issue), I would like to setup a domain name on the box to play around with - nothing serious yet.

Postfix
I'm currently having trouble with Postfix. I recently installed some new web hosting software (ispCP) and so some new configs were written for all my software. Postfix was one of them and I can't figure out what's wrong with it. Whenever I send e-mails to my server, Postfix denies it saying "Unknown address error 554: Relay access denied". The logs say NOTHING about it and I've been trying the old configs on Postfix and still nothing works.

PostFix Configuration ...
I recently moved to a VPS and installed Postfix onto it as my mail server. But I have following problems with its consistent working: 1. I experience that every now and then (once in 2 weeks) , it stops sending mails and put them in the mail queue with the following error: Host or domain name not found. Name service error for name= type=MX: mysite.com not found, try again I am not sure why it says so. However if I try to restart my mail server /etc/init.d/postfix restart and then try to flush the mails out of queue they are sent successfully. I am not sure where the problem is. 2. Secondly, I see that the header of my mails contains the hostname of my VPS machine "gospel" which is ofcourse not intended. How can I have my domain name in the mail headers?

Postfix And Header_checks
My server's running Debian Etch, Postfix and spamassassin. Spamassassin works: it flags spam messages correctly. Currently I have set it to discard messages marked as spam and messages that doesn't have a proper ascii header (Eliminates mail from chinese & japanese spammers). But how do I make postfix to move spam to "Junk" (or such) folder, not to discard it. Current /etc/postfix/header_checks: Code: /[^[:print:]]{8}/ DISCARD /^X-Spam-level: *******.*$/ DISCARD I did found something that could help, but didn't know how to apply it to my configuration, and it seems to be Php code for ispconfig.

Postfix Config
I'm having some SMTP server security issues. I am running Postfix on my Debian VPS and I am trying to disable Postfix from being publically used by anybody except those with webmail. I read Postfix's configuration at Postfix.org, but I couldn't find anything that I thought to be relevent to this situation. Do any of you have suggestions or ways to fix this? Besides disabling e-mail all together? As another detail, I'm running Postfix on its original config, not through a MySQL database config.

Postfix Setup
I've got virtualmin installed and configured and working beautifully, and I'm able to add email accounts and have them checked by dovecot. Now I'm trying to work the SMTP side of things, but I'm stuck. What's happening here is that when I attempt to send an email through Postfix, it replies with 'relay access denied' I've searched google and tried various things, but none of them have worked so far. I can post any configuration files you need. After I get this working, I get to add another domain and see if the settings work there too

Postfix Conflict
I'm trying to iron out this huge bug with Postfix. Right now I am stuck in a hole. I am trying to disable Postfix from relaying e-mail sent to my server. When I send e-mail without "relay_domains", I get a "554 Relay Access Denied" error. When I supply a "relay_domains" variable to Postfix, I get "mail for example.com loops back to myself" for an error. I was skimming over the Postfix docs and it said you can make these errors go away with a "virtual_mailbox_domains" or "virtual_alias_domains" variable. My config has "virtual_mailbox_domains" but still these errors appear. Is there a way to fix this, or a way to disable Postfix from relaying e-mail?

Can people spam email through my server? I see people suggest to use smtp auth or pop before smtp to increase the security, Do you think it's necessary to do so in my case?

Includes In Postfix Configuration
I have my postfix server configured to allow me to send email without authentication whenever my ip matches a value in my config. Only problem is, i have it open to accept anyone in my subnet, and i'm kind of weary of letting anyone in this area send mail through it. I have a script on my server that gets my ip address whenever i send an http-based request to my winamp now playing script. When it gets my ip address, it updates a file called ip.txt with my ip address. What i'm trying to do is config my postfix main.cf file to grab the ip from ip.txt, and add it onto the mynetworks variable. Then when i try to send the email, i want it to recognize me, and let me send the email.

Auto Updating Postfix
I have searched the whole forum for help on this but couldnt find anything. I have postfix running on a backup mx server for a plesk box. The backup mx does a very good job of reducing spam and virus to my plesk box thanks to mailscanner. The problem i have now is i have to manually update postfix transport and relay_recipients file everytime a new domain is created in plesk. Do any one know how i can create a custom script that will pull domain information from my plesk box and will update postfix on the backup mx server. Maybe a website with information that can help. i can always set a cron to run the postmap command to update the tables but i will need to update the respective files (transport, relay_recipients) first.

Using Postfix As An SMTP Gateway
I have been trying to determine if I should use Postfix or Exim for our new SMTP gateway. My biggest obstacle is in trying to determine if Postfix can handle the processing as efficiently as Exim. Basically we have hundreds of domains that will have email going through the gateway. I need to know if Postfix can be configured to perform different actions based on the recipient domain (i.e. block receipt of message or add a header and deliver). It looks like this functionality is handled by using a 3rd party tool like "amavisd". The problem is that it looks like I have to wait for the DATA to be received before I can send the mail to the filtering tool rather than just waiting until the last RCPT command. It is also unclear as to whether the message will be denied during delivery with a 550 error being returned or whether the message is accepted and a postmaster message is sent. Obviously I would prefer the 550 error.

Remote Domains With VHCS2 And Postfix
I didn't know where to post this question since VHCS has no official forum (that I know of), so I decided to post it on sitepoint. I'm sure some of you use VHCS and maybe someone can help me with my problem. I am setting up a hosting server for the sites I develop for my customers. This server is intended to host only websites (no email). The MX records for the hosted domains will mostly be directed to Google Apps. My problem is that VHCS automatically adds all hosted domains to postfix as local domains. This in turn means that I cannot send email to these domains from the server itself (e.g. from PHP scripts). I believe that local domains are listed in the file /etc/postfix/vhcs2/domains. Now, I could just delete them from this file and it would probably work, but I would really rather see if there was a way to convince VHCS to not add them to the list in the first place. There are several reasons I am reluctant to do this manually: I have extra work every time I add a domain; there is a chance I'll forget to do this; it says in the file "Please do NOT edit it manually", which probably means that VHCS will overwrite my changes at some time,... Does anyone know, how to configure VHCS to not serve as a mail server for any of the hosted domains, bearing in mind that I cannot simply shut down postfix, because I need a way of sending email through PHP?

Create Additional Subfolder Postfix/courier
I have a mail server which is courier, postfix, amavisd, using Mysql db and virtual mailboxes which I administer through postfixadmin. I want to be able to add a set of default folders to all mailboxes created such as Possible Spam and some others. I have investigated shared folders but this is not what i want, is there a way I can get courier/postfix to create a set of additional sub-folders when it creates a mailbox. All mailboxes are accessed as IMAP mailboxes.

Postfix TO Addresses Show As Undisclosed-recipients
I have a dedicated server where I am running Postfix just to relay mail to a smtp server. Whenever I send test emails using Postfix the TO addresses shows as: "undisclosed-recipients" I see when I review my maillog where the outgoing email address is not recognized. Jun 11 21:09:57 big1 postfix/smtpd[8098]: >>> CHECKING RECIPIENT MAPS <<< Jun 11 21:09:57 big1 postfix/smtpd[8098]: ctable_locate: leave existing entry key xxxxx@gmail.com Jun 11 21:09:57 big1 postfix/smtpd[8098]: maps_find: recipient_canonical_maps: xxxxx@gmail.com: not found How can you get Postfix to just pass along the email address and not check to see if it knows it or not? The email still goes to the right place but it does not look very professional..

Getting Postfix Silently Discard Catchall Emails
I finally got to the spam point I had to need to disable the "catchall" email accounts on postfix. I simply removed the catchall lines from /etc/postfix/virtual, and it works correctly, however I want postfix to tell the spammer that the message was accepted but really silently discard it. right now it discards their email correctly, but postfix emails a reply back to the "from" address (which is most likely faked or some innocent user) Quote: "PERM_FAILURE: SMTP Error (state 13): 550 <localhost@example.com>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in virtual alias table" how do I get postfix to silently trash their message, give the smtp reply code that it was successfully accepted, and not email the user back. or is it not that big of deal and I should just let it send (but this seems like a huge waste as this means my server is wasting resources sending hundreds/thousands of unnecessary "REJECTED" messages to users who probably are completely unrelated)

SASL Authentication For Mail Server (Sendmail/Postfix)
I 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)

Postfix+MySQL+Courier-IMAP+Spamassassin+SquirrelMail ...issue
Hopefully I'm posting this in the correct area. Our server runs CentOS 4.4 on x86_64 arch. So basically everything was going rather smoothly... Problems began to arise at the point where I finished installing/configuring SquirrelMail. Upon logging in, I saw this: [see attachment] Ok, so I checked maillog and saw: Feb 11 13:50:46 zeus imapd: LOGIN, user=alex, ip=[::ffff:127.0.0.1], protocol=IMAP Feb 11 13:50:47 zeus imapd: Failed to connect to socket /tmp/fam-- Feb 11 13:50:47 zeus imapd: Failed to create cache file: maildirwatch (alex) Feb 11 13:50:47 zeus imapd: Error: Input/output error Feb 11 13:50:47 zeus imapd: Check for proper operation and configuration Feb 11 13:50:47 zeus imapd: of the File Access Monitor daemon (famd). Feb 11 13:50:47 zeus imapd: DISCONNECTED, user=alex, ip=[::ffff:127.0.0.1], headers=0, body=0, rcvd=21, sent=57, time=1 So I did some searching and determined it was a problem with Courier-IMAP being compiled with File Alteration Monitor support and famd not running (I built RPM directly from source tarball without any customization whatsoever per the instructions on the Courier website). I found some possible solutions to be: 1) Install and run fam and be sure portmapper is running as well (problem being is that fam has since been replaced by gamin on CentOS, which is installed properly on my system). 2) Do a source install of Courier-IMAP and --disable-fam Ok, so route 1 went like this: I uninstalled gamin, found fam-2.6.8, installed it, started it manually, made sure portmapper was running and tried again. This time, I still got the same errors in SquirrelMail, but the errors in maillog didn't show up. However, shortly after the page loaded, the famd process I had started manually promptly ended without my intervention. Ok, onto trying #2. Route 2 went like this: reinstalled gamin, then I tried building a custom RPM by manually configuring with --disable-fam and then using rpmbuild -bc --short-circuit and rpmbuild -bi --short-circuit. That didn't change anything at all, I still had the same errors both with SquirrelMail and in maillog. Then I said ok, I'll just do a complete source install. ./configure --disable-fam && make && make install. Manually started that server, tried again, same deal, both errors. So I've got problems. Either with Courier-IMAP, SquirrelMail, or both. The other daemons seem to run fine, I just mentioned them in case of the possibility of some kind of (unknown to me) conflict. If you need to see any of my configs, let me know...any information greatly appreciated...I'm desperate.

Postfix-mysql & Partial-catchall For Single Domain
I'm running postfix 2.3.5 with my alias info being drawn from a mysql database. What i'm trying to do is setup a partial catchall setup to forward all email that's addressed *@hah.cx to uber@spamcop.net. However, I want email addressed to mikey@hah.cx, and mike@hah.cx to be directed to my local "mikey" user email account.
