<0> hi, im having issues with postfix
<0> when i do postfix start and then postfix reload, it says that postfix isnt running
<0> hello...?
<1> postfix is badly configured, and can't startup
<1> check your log files
<0> what log files
<1> what distro are you running?
<1> try the log file in /var/log/maillog if it's there
<0> gentoo
<2> /var/log/mail.log
<0> nope, not there
<0> postconf -n prints out fine
<2> There's also mail.error with some loggers
<2> Or mail.err, I forget
<3> hm i added a bunch of lines to syslog-ng for mail logs
<3> http://rafb.net/paste/results/Civoul10.html



<3> er, not all of those lines are for mail
<4> i know this is not the job of postfix, but how do you add a footer to all outgoing messages?
<5> thats really the job of the client
<5> however a content filter of some sort should be able to do what you want
<6> altermime
<7> any .forward experts around?
<7> any expand_owner_alias experts around?
<6> ChrisH is
<7> ;-)
<1> hey, would anyone know why postfix/virtual would be giving me "valid_hostname: empty hostname", "fatal: unable to use my own hostname" ?
<8> wikkid: do a postconf and look for hostname
<8> it would seem that you havent set your hostname in the postfix config
<8> wikkid: postconf | grep myhostname
<1> chrisq, myhostname and mydomain are set correctly.
<1> myhostname = speed.engineworksinc.com, mydomain = engineworksinc.com
<1> i wish it was that easy :)
<0> please help, postfix start and then post fix reload says that postfix isnt running
<1> r00, you have a bad configuration for postfix, have you checke dyou rlogfiles?
<0> wikkid, what logs
<0> and postconf -n comes out fine
<1> your postfix log files
<0> where would they be, im on gentoo
<1> egrep '(warning|fatal|panic):" /var/log/mail.log
<0> there is no mail.log
<1> try:
<1> find / -name 'mail.log'
<0> k
<0> mail.log doesnt exist
<0> wikkid
<1> try maillog... i really don't know to be honest with you. i'm running bsd, so mine is in /var/log/maillog... when you asked this question earlier someone suggested mail.log you could try find / -name 'maillog'
<3> r00723r0, your mail messages are probably in /var/log/messages since they are probably unfiltered
<3> r00723r0, do you use syslog-ng?
<0> yes
<3> ok let me paste my syslog-ng.conf
<0> wtf
<0> no
<0> i see the problem
<0> port 25 is taken
<1> that would do it also
<3> r00723r0, http://rafb.net/paste/results/rmo8Yq91.html
<0> Viza, im good, thanks
<3> that is just for filtering stuff out of /var/log/messages in mail.* logs
<0> wtf...
<3> r00723r0, make sure you don't have another smtp server or something like portsentry using port 25
<0> how do i kill the program on port 25?
<0> Viza, i did
<0> but then i uninstalled it
<0> obviously its still in memory
<8> wikkid: ah sorry, usually it is that simple :)
<8> r00723r0: do a netstat --ip -n
<3> r00723r0, try something like lsof -i tcp:25
<3> or that
<8> it will give the pid to the process running on port 25
<8> which can then be killed
<0> ahhhhh
<0> got it
<8> it's -p for the pid, not -n :)
<9> hi everyone :)
<9> im stuck on a pop3 problem, im gettineg this error when checking my mail : courierpop3login: LOGIN FAILED, user=seele.baba, ip=[::ffff:xx.xx.xx.xx]
<9> the smtp is working OK.



<10> My postfix configuration is not resolving names... I even set up a tunnel to my relay host and get Host or domain name not found. Name service error for name=localhost type=A: Host not found
<10> whereas from the commandline I can resolve any name
<9> nslookup
<9> nslookup domain.com
<10> yes, that works
<9> or dig domain.com
<10> seele_, that works
<11> Yango_: fix /etc/hosts, to have a valid 127.0.0.1 line
<10> Zerberus, I have it
<10> in fact, before I had my.relay.com in main.cf, and it complained the same
<10> and from the commandline dig my.relay.com resolved ok
<10> mx too
<10> dig my.relay.com mx works fine from comamndline... for postfix it doesn't ... it's rather weird
<10> (and dig localhost too)
<11> nsswitch.conf is correct?
<10> how do I test that? don't know about nsswitch
<12> somebody here with sender verification to which I can send a quick test email?
<12> My sender verification on emails from snap@snapcouriers.com.au fails strangely.
<10> Zerberus, but it probably is correct, as it's what it came with the distro
<10> anyhow using adresses work, though that's an ugly solution
<0> wtf
<0> im having issues with postfix
<0> as soon as my client sends out MAIL FROM: <email>, postfix doesnt reply
<12> r00723r0: it's doing dns lookups?
<12> r00723r0: and check the logs
<9> im stuck on a pop3 problem, im getting this error when checking my mail : courierpop3login: LOGIN FAILED, user=seele.baba, ip=[::ffff:xx.xx.xx.xx]
<12> try #courierpop3
<3> seele_, what method are you using for authentication?
<9> LOGIN
<9> POP3AUTH="LOGIN" on the /etc/courier/pop3d
<3> what module/db is it checking logins against?
<9> i think is PAM
<3> saslauthd is running?
<9> yep
<3> what parameter do you use for the -a option?
<3> for example, to check against /etc/shadow, i have: SASLAUTHD_OPTS="${SASLAUTH_MECH} -a shadow"
<9> SASLAUTHD_AUTHMECH=pam on /etc/sysconfig/saslauthd
<3> hm not sure how the pam option works, never got that working lol
<3> i use the shadow option
<9> theshadow is for local users?
<3> yeah
<9> well lets try that
<9> so what should i change?
<3> if you use an /etc/shadow file for storing local p***words
<3> if you use an unencrypted /etc/p***wd i think the option is just p***wd
<3> i suppose change SASLAUTHD_AUTHMECH=pam to SASLAUTHD_AUTHMECH=shadow
<9> no i use an encrypted p***wd
<9> i think all new linux distros use /etc/shadow
<9> let me try
<9> nop
<9> this is what evolution says: Unable to connect to POP server mail.bame.net.co.
<9> Error sending p***word: -ERR Login failed.
<13> anyone using courier for IMAP and do you guys use the settings of "IMAP_SHAREDINDEXFILE=/etc/courier/shared/index"?
<9> and this is what /var/log/mail says : pop3d: LOGIN FAILED, user=seele.bame, ip=[::ffff:xx.xx.xx.xx.]
<9> mmmm im not understanding the error
<3> you restarted saslauthd?
<9> yep
<9> and courier-pop3
<3> btw, in your authdaemonrc file, under authmodulelist, is authshadow listed?
<9> authmodulelist="authcustom authcram authuserdb authldap authpam"
<9> first: was the question for me :) ,, and if it was for me should i add it???
<3> yes :p
<9> nop the same error
<9> i restarted saslauthd courier-pop and postfix
<3> is seele.bame a local user?
<9> yep
<3> hm
<9> yep the same
<9> hmhm
<3> using ipv6?
<3> that looks weird: ip=[::ffff:xx.xx.xx.xx.] :x
<3> not sure if it's a problem lol
<9> is me trying to hide IP
