I use postfix as for local delivery as for relay to an mx exchange. I
want to use greylisting and DNSBL. This ar my restrictions:

smtpd_data_restrictions =
reject_multi_bounce

smtpd_sender_restrictions =
reject_non_fqdn_sender
reject_unknown_sender_domain

I've configured a postfixmailserver as an frontend of ms exchange so
postfix has got an transport "domain.tld smtp:[ip_of_msex]. Now I got
the request dor transport one special address to another host
"user@domain.tld smtp:[ip_of_special_host] - thats not the problem I
think. But: this special host is seldom online so I have to to
increase the queuel lifetime (or whatever - I dont know the right word
for) to one e.g. month. How to do that, please help.

I am using a godaddy virtual dedicated server which uses postfix and
spamassassin. It marks the spam with [SPAM] in the subject line but I would
rather it deleted it before going to client.

Anyone know of a way? (I am a software developer and not a server guru but
can find my way around a little bit)

Many thanks.

Hello,
I have various clients using my STMP server to send e-mails. Server
Relay is enabled through their IP.
Last night one of the clients sent several thousand spam emails thus
putting my server in spamcop.net black-list.
Is it possible to block users from sending e-mails that generate
abnormal traffic through postfix configuration, or whether should I
use some other program to control?
Obe.

Is this still used as a smtpd_client_restriction parameter? I'm
running postfix 2.4.5, and when I try to use this restriction, and
test with it, postfix allows multiple recipients with a blank sender.
I am running this on Ubuntu 7.10.

Of course, I do a "sudo postfix reload" after I make any changes to
main.cf.

If I am posting in the wrong group, I apologize.

Thanks for any information.

I am hosting 2 domains (domain.com and domain1.com) on my server.
Postfix is working fine for those domains. I can send and receive
mail with no issues. My question is on domain1.com I am trying to
forward mail to 2 places, a local unix account and gmail. So when I
send email to info@domain1.com, I receive it in my local unix account
but then I never get it in gmail. My maillog gives me the error for
the gmail address "status=bounced .. mail for domain.com loops back to
myself". I have tried lots of different things I have read in here
but nothing seems to work. Anyone have any ideas?

my /etc/postfix/virtual looks like this:
domain1.com nothing
info@domain1.com abc@gmail.com

Hi
I am new to postfix. Installed it becuase I needed the always_bcc
option.

some outputs from postconf:

alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
always_bcc = mygmailaddress
append_dot_mydomain = no
biff = no
config_directory = /etc/postfix
html_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix/html...

Anyone know why I am seeing the following example postfix errors on
the console of my FreeBSD 6.2 machine every minute or so:?

July 4 13:10:03 web postfix/smtp[3966]: fatal: open lock pid/

Hi all,

----------------------------------------------------------------
How I used to do things (the sendmail way)
----------------------------------------------------------------
In one of our old boxes where we run sendmail, we had a situation
where we have a domain created (e.g. example-domain.co.uk) but the
client had his MX records outsourced to another company. Initially,
when our php scripts were sending emails to {whatever}@example-
domain.co.uk, all those emails would end up in the dead.letter file
cause the box was trying to find {whatever} in our own box.

After a little bit of fiddling, we found out that if we add the domain
name "example-domain.co.uk" to the /etc/remotedomains file, sendmail
will properly send the email to the outside world and would not
deliver it (or try to deliver it) locally.
