Please show the content of the file /etc/postfix/client_access.

Is this a dynamically or a statical IP? In case of a statical one, you
can use a map with check_client_access or mynetworks. In case a of a
dynamical one, you would need to either use SMTP-after-POP or SMTP-Auth.

Postfix Remote Client Relay

2002-02-01 Thread Gene Grimm
We are trying to configure our new Postfix mail server to allow relay for a
new remote client. Our configuration file currently includes the following
directive in main.cf:

smtpd_client_restrictions = permit_mynetworks,
check_client_access hash:/etc/postfix/client_access,
reject_unknown_client

All the remaining 'smtpd_' directives are default. The mail.log file shows
the attempt to send mail that should have been permitted.

Feb  1 10:17:23 mail-gr-oh postfix/smtpd[19051]: connect from
unknown[207.17.252.3]
Feb  1 10:17:23 mail-gr-oh postfix/smtpd[19051]: 87555337E2:
client=unknown[207.17.252.3]
Feb  1 10:17:23 mail-gr-oh postfix/smtpd[19051]: reject: RCPT from
unknown[207.17.252.3]: 554 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Recipient address
rejected: Relay access denied; from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Feb  1 10:17:29 mail-gr-oh postfix/smtpd[19051]: disconnect from
unknown[207.17.252.3]

What configuration do we need to permit a specific external IP address to
relay from outside our network to any recipients without opening the server
for spammers?

Any guidance on this would be appreciated.
