I have Cpanel, with the "Prevent Nobody from sending emails" in the WHM>Tweak Settings enabled.
I want to force sendmail to use SMPT auth.. so that all mails sent are sent via SMPT and an authenticated POP user. I guess this will help in limiting the "The maximum each domain can send out per hour" setting.
I'd like to describe an issue and see if this sounds familiar to anyone, or if there is a solution that I have not thought of yet.
CAUSE: My ISP (yeah, it's comcast) began blocking port 25 inbound so my personal mail server was no longer receiving mail.
RESOLUTION: I worked through a new DNS re-router to change the port that would now receive mail: from port 25 to port 587. It took me a while to get the routes pointed correctly, but I finally got the messages to route, get through my firewall, and hit the mail server.
NEW PROBLEM: After some IP and DNS routing issues, I finally got things to work, the email that gets sent finally arrives at my mail server. However, the mail server (Alt-N MDaemon) now requires AUTH from the incoming DNS re-direct.
BIG QUESTION: How do I configure MDaemon mail server (or any other mail server, for that matter) to accept the mail from the new re-route server? Mail now re-directed to the new port ALWAYS comes from that route (mx-routes01.editdns.net). Where in the configuration settings of MDaemon do I set it up? I've tried including the host name and the IP address into every WhiteList list I can find, added it to the trusted host name list and everything. I'm at a loss, since it's impossilbe to configure the re-route server to provide AUTH credentials to my mail server. MDaemon now replys to every mail reuqest with : 530
Authentication required (in reply to MAIL FROM command)
I've been trying to set up Postfix to send email for the past few days. I've managed to get it to ask for a username and password, in order to try and send mail to an external domain
I can receive email fine on the server, but I can't send email out
i have 2 options to configure my email marketing script - using smtp or mail().
we used to send all our email marketing from outlook, with decent results, and not many bounces.
we tested a new script that used our sendmail on our server, now we're finding people aren't the mail a day or so later, or some aren't getting it at all. we seem to be getting a lot of bounces too...
anyway, im starting a new site from scratch, and im just wondering which is the best method for sending out email marketing campaigns.
is it possible to set Auth .htpasswd if a specific file and not the directory. example admin access [url]and a Auth User/Pass window appears. I need for /sec/ to be unprotected for image loading so a complete directory protection is not an option.
Forbidden You don't have permission to access /_vti_bin/_vti_aut/author.exe on this server. Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
I have done the following: uninstalled /re installed extensions via whm (same error)
.htaccess is default frontpage's code only, nothing else
/scripts/chownpublichtmls
dns zone propagated fully, correct (today)
.htaccess file:
Code: # -FrontPage- IndexIgnore .htaccess */.??* *~ *# */HEADER* */README* */_vti* <Limit GET POST> order deny,allow deny from all allow from all </Limit> <Limit PUT DELETE> order deny,allow deny from all </Limit> AuthName www.domain.com AuthUserFile /home/user/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.pwd AuthGroupFile /home/user/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.grp
I'm trying to get exception from auth (.htpasswd ) for one specific URL, but seems, that it does not work with my Rewriting rules. Disabling RewriteEngine solving auth problem. My .htaccess:
Ubuntu 14.04 with Plesk 12 (10 Domain License).Using this for mail only... multiple domains.Postfix and Dovecot installed. Trying to figure out how to do:
- SASL Auth (Dovecot) - TLS - want above two to be mandatory... no plain text auth and no unencrypted connections.
How do I achieve this with Plesk 12?I have found countless how-to's about doing this with Vanilla (non Plesk) installs with the same server software. However, Postfix main.cf and master.cf both appear to have specific Plesk modificatuons. Same thing for the related Dovecot conf files... also have Plesk specific modifications.
I see no way to enable the desired settings from the Plesk Panel. Can't achieve this within the Panel but also can't modify the conf files without potentially breaking some Plesk-specific functionality? My original hope in purchasing the Plesk license was to make administration of the mail server easier. Unfortunately, I'm struggling to do this now and may have already had this figured out had I not bothered with the Panel.
I would expect the second - to be replaced by the logged in user. The doc says, the user is logged if the document is protected. I do protect the whole directory using directory match. Without log in I fail to retrieve the document in question.
I've just setup CentOS 6.6 with Plesk at my Hoster OVH. Now when I want to connect to the smtp server I get following message:
Code: SASL LOGIN authentication failed: encryption needed to use mechanism SASL auth is enabled in the main.cf also submission. I connect to tls://smtp.example.com:587 with my email and password.
1) I had disabled the php mail() function due to spam, but this has stopped so many hosted scripts to stop emailing their users... how do I enable that function again?
2) in a failed attempt to fix #1 (i thought it was sendmail which caused it) sendmail has stopped sending in or delivering emails... not quite sure why this happened eventhough I backed up sendmail before working on it and reverted back when i failed to resolve the issue?
My website is running of a windows server, and so doesn't let PHP sendmail work .
I only remembered this recently, and now know why I have been loosing out on clients.
Is there a work around to this? i.e possibly some sort of script that emulates the linux sendmail? Note: I don't have access to the windows server config, it is a shared hosting account.
As I was on windows and hated my hosts spam protection (took almost 3 hours for the spam filter to confirm safety of emails from gmail servers) I moved the email system to an external company, that now manages my pop3/smtp etc. (not sure if this makes any difference - but may as well explain it just incase)
I have installed sendmail program on the server and when I try to send email to any external address, it is trying to connect to localhost. Am I missing anything here?
I have found a bunch of articles to setup Sendmail as a mail relay, but none have been successful for me or the articles are very outdated. Anyone have a 'stupid-proof' set of current instructions on how setup Sendmail Pop before SMTP? This is a CentOS 4.5 Box with Sendmail 8.14.2/8.13.1 and Dovecot. Any successful guidance would be appreciated!
how to which will help me to make a correct configuration of mail server. I want to set up a mail server with e.g three domain names and all three domain names will have few similar email addresses like info, sales, marketing and so on. I know that this can be done by using control panels but I am not big fan of control panels I want to do a pure Linux administration using the command line.
