postfix oddities.... 220 *******
Hello. Currently trying to set up a test postfix server with smtp auth, with sasl and tls. Got everything working eventually, at least from localhost. I can login, authenticate with plaintext etc. However, when trying to access that server from a host not in mynetworks it echos a funny 220 header like this: Escape character is '^]'. 220 if I then try a ehlo like: ehlo localhost I get: 502 Error: command not implemented however if I do the exact same steps in connecting from a host in mynetworks, (or localhost) I get : Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. 220 tassy.obbit.se ESMTP Postfix ehlo localhost 250-tassy.obbit.se 250-PIPELINING 250-SIZE 1024 250-VRFY 250-ETRN 250-STARTTLS 250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN CRAM-MD5 DIGEST-MD5 250-AUTH=LOGIN PLAIN CRAM-MD5 DIGEST-MD5 250-XVERP 250 8BITMIME Anyone seen this? It probably is something very simple, but I'm stuck at the moment, so any help would be appreciated. /Roger -- Roger Abrahamsson Sys/Net Admin, Obbit AB -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

It used to be broken in several ways. PIX admins who go for this option tend to be uncooperative to the point of coming across as ignorant and dense. All in my humble experience, YMMV. cheers, BM -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Best way to fix this is on the PIX itself (make sure you have the latest patches etc. and consider disabling the smtp fixup mode), but as a workaround you could disable esmtp on the postfix box, by having this in main.cf: smtp_always_send_ehlo = no smtp_never_send_ehlo = yes -- Tot ziens, Bart-Jan Vrielink -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
