<0> my postfix installation is not using the /etc/aliases database...even though main.cf has not been altered since it was working previously
<0> it's driving me nuts
<0> ok looks like the issue is with my transport file
<0> i need to get postfix to check against the aliases file before applying the transport
<1> virtual alias expansion happens before aliases
<1> so virtual aliases will mask aliases
<2> i followed the tutorial on http://workaround.org/articles/ispmail-sarge/ to setup postfix with mysql. now the problem is, to be able to use dspam i have to make an alias which basically forwards to a command rather then another email address. i nrmally would have this line in my /etc/aliases : spam:"|/usr/local/bin/dspam ...." . but now postfix somehow doesnt agree to use the /etc/aliases file. a mail send to spam gets rejected as a unknow u



<2> ser. this is because i am not allowed to list mydomain.com within mydestination.
<2> can anyone tell me how i can make an alias now which executes a command?
<2> hmm that was badly explained
<3> overrider: did you also set up a virtual alias for spam -> spam@localhost?
<2> no i havet any entries in .etc/portfix/virtual
<3> are you using a mysql table for forwarding then?
<2> yes i am.
<3> right, you need to add an alias for 'spam' to 'spam@localhost' in the mysql table
<3> then your 'spam' entry in /etc/aliases will work
<2> and then it will honor my /etc/alias file again?
<2> oh cool
<2> i will try right now, thanks
<2> stocksy, ok i added the alias in my forwarding table. now sending a mail to spam@domain.com says: message bounced, name or domain name not found, name service error for localhost.domain.com) i also tried to map spam to spam@127.0.0.1 which in turn says bad address syntax: spam@127.0.0.1 . must i allow the syntax somewhere first?
<3> hmm...
<3> maybe spam@localhost.localdomain?
<3> do you have a 'mydestination = localhost' or similar in main.cf?
<2> stocksy, just mapping spam@domain.com to spam seems to have solved the isse, thanks a lot
<3> cool :)
<4> hello :)
<4> hm, is it possible to deny sending mails for some local users?
<4> (smtpd_*_restrictions don't affect mails sent by pickup, do they?)
<5> hi
<5> is there any body who knows dspam well ?
<5> I have set up a working postfix + mysql + dspam daemon mode
<5> But I'm wondering how I could check for retrained spam or ham
<6> anno: postconf.5.html#authorized_submit_users . You can also use Unix permissions on the sendmail(1) binary to do that. And yes, you're right, smtpd_*_restrictions apply only to SMTP submission.
<4> rob0: thanks a lot!



<7> Hi, I am after 'domain splitting' with postfix & exchange. i.e. foo@domain.com on postfix, and bar@domain.com on Exchange. With Exchange on the Internet. Any guide/hint ?
<8> hi all
<8> why is that I am seeing alot of "ast message repeated 4 times" in my mail.err file for my postfix?
<9> how do I block a specific email or host from sending to a specific user on my server ?
<10> setup a blacklist?
<7> hi, I am after 'domain splitting' with postfix & exchange. i.e. foo@domain.com on postfix, and bar@domain.com on Exchange. With Exchange on the Internet. Any guide/hint ?
<9> fixed it using an access file
<11> kimo: one server has to accept mail for the entire domain. once it's received, you can redirect it
<7> I guess Exchange will be that one, since it's on the Internet
<7> for postfix, it has to be configured for 2 things
<11> typically, people put postfix in front of exchange
<7> deliver some accounts locally, while forward others to exchange
<7> sorry management doesnt want that! dumb
<6> Yeah, having Exchange in front is rather silly.
<11> since when would a manager ever make a technical decision?
<7> the thing is, managers will get exchange accounts for calendring ..etc, while users will get postfix mail only (for cost)
<11> ugh
<7> we need all acounts to be from @example.com (no sub domains)
<7> any guide on configuring that ?
<11> from addresses are typically configured within the mua
<7> & to: address as well
<7> basically, how do I conf postfix to deliver some accounts locally & some other accounts from same domain to a 'smart host'
<12> kimo: aliases?
<13> and of course I end up scratching my head again, trying to follow http://workaround.org/articles/ispmail-sarge/#authsmtp, the /etc/postfix/sasl directory doesn't exist, so not sure if I should just make it or not
<14> make it
<13> ok
<15> Anyone here happen to be using postfixadmin?
