FSCK ME! Yeah, that solved the issue.
So… why would that cause the issue? Normally I’d leave this to the experts while I focus on my day job, but since this is my SOHO domain, I have to ask these questions which of course 3 months from now, I’ll forget and have to do it all over again. Do I want to eventually run this with chroot? Thanks again to everyone. -Mike On Apr 25, 2017, at 8:41 AM, Noel Jones <njo...@megan.vbhcs.org<mailto:njo...@megan.vbhcs.org>> wrote: On 4/25/2017 7:36 AM, Michael Segel wrote: I have two mail servers. One is an older release of Postfix and I’m building a replacement for that server. I did a test where I sent the same message to both servers. In /etc/var/maillog on the one server, when the incoming message is being delivered, I see the hostname connect. On the new server, I see unknown connected. Both have DNS set up the same. So what is happening during the initial connection? Why is one able to capture the hostname, and the other is not? Where should I be looking in the logs or services to be running? Or ports to be open on my firewall? One of the differences between the two servers is that on the second server I am trying to set up email for virtual users where I have followed some instructions using dovecot and MariaDB (mySQL). Bellow is part of the logs in the new server which isn’t happening on the old server. Maybe I mucked up something? Ok, I know I mucked something up. Thx -Mike Turn off debug logging. Normal logs are sufficient. Turn off chroot. Maybe your chroot environment is incomplete, preventing DNS from working correctly. http://www.postfix.org/DEBUG_README.html#no_chroot If you need more help, please see: http://www.postfix.org/DEBUG_README.html#mail -- Noel Jones
