Re: Different Postfix and Cyrus Machines

Neither postfix nor cyrus (except sieve) ever look at the content of a mail (and the From: header line is just a part of this content), they only see the envelope. So you will have to use some external script invoked from the MTA's (i.e. postfix's) aliases file. Which means that if you use virtual domains, you will first need a virtual alias redirecting the mail to a "local" address (mydestination), which is then sent to the external script by a normal alias. Using a proper mailinglist software and adjusting the formmailer output (the mail it sends) to match that might be a better way then doing this all by yourself. cu, sven Cyrus Home Page: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyruswiki.andrew.cmu.edu List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html

This makes no sense for my requirements. The "from sender" initiates the mail from a website, by typing his mail address. He has to confirm the autoresponse.

Postfix and Cyrus virtual setup
Greetings, I have setup my mail server to use Postfix for SMTP and am using Cyrus for IMAP. I'm trying to create a virtual alias of sorts for addresses in a specific virtual domain. We are moving from first name, last initial to first initial, last name and so of course need to make aliases for the old style. here's an example of how I need mail forwarded/aliased for a user named "John Doe": [EMAIL PROTECTED]: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I realize this might be more of a Postfix issue than Cyrus, but thought I would ask here anyways. Presently I have this in my /etc/postfix/main.cf: mailbox_transport = cyrus virtual_transport = cyrus As the virtual transport is now cyrus instead of postfix's "virtual" delivery agent, I don't have any documentation on how to make this work as everything about Postfix vhosting is in regards to their "virtual" agent. Any insight would be helpful. Thanks in advance Jason Walker signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
Postfix and Cyrus Imapd with multiple domains
I'm setting up a Linux server using Cyrus 2.1.16 and Postfix 2.1.0. I currently have Postfix setup to deliver mail through lmtp to Cyrus. The server will be hosting two domains (on the same IP address) so I have setup Cyrus IMAP to use usernames that are the entire user's email address, i.e. "[EMAIL PROTECTED]". I was able to get this working by setting: unixhierarchysep: yes in the imapd.conf file. This allowed me to use cyradm to create new mailboxes like this: "cm user/[EMAIL PROTECTED]" The IMAP portion seems to work fine. I can login to the imap server using the full email address as described above and I can see the mailbox with no problems. My problem, however, is getting incoming mail to the mailbox. As I said, Postfix is setup to use lmtp for mail delivery and there doesn't seem to be any problem in it connecting and trying to send the mail to cyrus, however, the Cyrus lmtp agent always seems to be sending back a 550 User unknown error back to Postfix. The error in the log is something like this: relay=public/lmtp[public/lmtp], delay=0, status=bounced (host public/lmtp[public/lmtp] said: 550-Mailbox unknown. Either there is no mailbox associated with this 550-name or you do not have authorization to see it. The RCPT TO in the log seems to show the correct address ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). For Postfix, I have a /etc/postfix/vmailbox file that right now simply has: [EMAIL PROTECTED] whatever My /etc/postfix/main.cf has the following lines: virtual_transport = lmtp:unix:public/lmtp virtual_mailbox_domains = domain.com, domain2.com virtual_mailbox_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/vmailbox virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual If I go back into cyradm and create a mailbox for "user/testuser", then the mail does get delivered. So, I'm not sure if the problem lies with cyrus-imap not translating the RCPT TO address into the proper mailbox or whether Postfix is not supplying some key piece of info that the cyrus lmtp agent needs to know in order to route the mail properly. Anyone have any ideas? Would it help to change the transport to a piped command where I might have some control over the mailbox name? --- Cyrus Home Page: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyruswiki.andrew.cmu.edu List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
Postfix and Cyrus-IMAP using virtdomains: userid and SQL
I'm trying to setup my postfix to use PgSQL lookups for virtual domains, and to deliver mail for virtual domains into Cyrus-IMAP. My method is to use Cyrus-IMAP's virtdomains: userid option, so that Cyrus-IMAP uses it's built-in virtual-domains support and mailboxes that are accessable as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Now, does anyone know any ideas of how to actually get Postfix itself to actually /deliver/ mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] into Cyrus-IMAP, and what kind of SQL structures and lookups I'd need to do to actually fully accomplish this task? I have my virtual_alias_maps pulling pgsql queries out and apparently looking up [EMAIL PROTECTED] if it exists, and if so, returns that exact same [EMAIL PROTECTED] It accepts mail for it, but when it gets beyond that, I get an error with postfix: May 25 23:06:29 netgear postfix/error[37479]: DAAE117043: to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, relay=none, delay=1, status=bounced (User unknown in virtual alias table) And so, it bounces it back after it's already accepted it.

Re: postfix and cyrus + excuse for yesterday's post
For web-cyradm there is no specific advantage. But I was developing a mail and RADIUS system for our company that was very complex and needed Referential integrity checks and triggers which are only in PostgreSQL. Hi, For web-cyradm there is no specific advantage of postgresql over mysql. But I was developing a mail and RADIUS system for our company that was very complex and needed referential integrity checks and triggers which are only in PostgreSQL. In the process I decided to experiment on web-cyradm with postgresql and documented it. With my document you can simply use mysql by just installing pam-mysql and editing the pam.d/imap slightly and it would work. If you intend to extend the web-cyradm system and make it more complex with triggers/checks e.t.c you are better off with postgresql. Otherwise mysql is nice fast and simple.

Re: postfix and cyrus + excuse for yesterday's post
Has there be any specific reasons why you've decided to use postgresql ? Checkout Luc's howto for mysql at http://www.delouw.ch/linux/Postfix-Cyrus-Web-cyradm-HOWTO/html/index.html and my postgresql howto at http://home.teleport.ch/simix/RPMS/Cyrus-imapd/contrib/Postfix+cyrus+postgreSQL+web-cyradm.pdf Andrew.
Re: postfix and cyrus + excuse for yesterday's post
Hi, Andrew Koros has created a nice howto. It's written for RedHat but that shouldn't matter too much here: http://home.teleport.ch/simix/RPMS/Cyrus-imapd/contrib/Postfix+cyrus+postgreSQL+web-cyradm.pdf HTH Simon This looks like a very detailed guide and using MySQL rather than postfix won't make such a big difference here. Thanks for that nice link! I'll post my results to this list afterwards ... maybe some quick and dirty setup guide using Woody :-) Kind Regards, Markus

postfix and cyrus + excuse for yesterday's post
Hi, First of all I'd like to excuse my post for yesterday ... adressed that to the wrong mailing list as I wrote the message in a hurry. Anyways Courier lacks for quota support (without patching it) and I didn't find any valueable information about it on the web. Anyways, Cyrus seems to be more advanced than Courier anyways and supports quota's ... I'd be happy to use Postfix and Cyrus as solution. But I'm needing some kind of assistance here. Cyrus should get all user information (that is username, password, quota) from a MySQL database. Currently I'm using Postfix 1.11. I could switch to a later version of Postfix - preferable available as Debian package (like I'd prefer installing Cyrus as Debian package also to ease maintenance for others). Maybe somebody can point me to a howto, cause I've been searching the web for hours and didn't come accross any useful information. Maybe a howto from scratch or several howto's would be a good idea. Kind Regards, Markus

However, we're using LMTP to dialog between the main MX host and the Cyrus server, so naturally this Cyrus server is not in the Postfix mydestination setting. If the destination host is in mydestination, then the logic that's used for local delivery kicks in, which means a message of multiple recipients is broken out to a unique transaction for each recipient. If your MX host is the same as your Cyrus host, you may have to fake things a bit, at least for now. You can use a virtual map to redirect local recipients to some (possibly bogus) host that is NOT listed in mydestination. Then use this bogus host in a transport map to deliver via lmtp. Example: /etc/postfix/main.cf: domain = example.org mydestination = mail.$domain, $domain /etc/postfix/virtual: example.org lmtp.example.org /etc/postfix/transport: lmtp.example.org lmtp:unix:/var/cyrus/socket/lmtp There may be a better way to achieve this, but at least this should work for now. -- Amos

Sorry to followup on myself, but this is really nifty for those that have been struggling with this. Today Wietse posted a patch to qmgr that addresses this problem. If you're not on the postfix-users list, you can probably snag it from one of the archives, such as: http://msgs.SecurePoint.com/postfix/ After you apply this patch to one of the recent snapshots, you can put something like this in your main.cf: # Use LMTP for local delivery. local_destination_recipient_limit = 3000 local_destination_concurrency_limit = 5 mailbox_transport = lmtp:unix:/var/cyrus/socket/lmtp (Assuming your MX host and Cyrus host are on the same box.) Now not only will you be able to take advantage of the Cyrus single instance message store feature, but you don't have to do anything twisted to get your aliases (like for mailing lists) to expand. :-) -- Amos

Looks like they should still be valid. You could experiment with
default_destination_recipient_limit
default_destination_concurrency_limit

What if you add "-v" to the end of the "lmtp" line in master.cf?
Then you'll see the actual protocol dialog:
lmtp unix - - n -- lmtp -v

Maybe it's the limitation of using the UNIX domain sockets. With
Cyrus 2.0.11, you could experiment with the TCP route:
/etc/cyrus.conf:
SERVICES {
...
lmtp cmd="lmtpd -a" listen="[127.0.0.1]:lmtp" prefork=1
...
}
/etc/services:
lmtp 2003/tcp
/etc/postfix/transport:
domain.namelmtp:[127.0.0.1]

Postfix and Cyrus single instance message store?
This may need to go to the postfix list, but I'll try here first because of the recent related traffic... OK, I'm trying to get Cyrus IMAP 2.0.11 single instance message store working with Postfix (latest snapshot). I have postfix set up using lmtp via a transport table as per the postfix lmtp instructions, and I've got the following in my main.cf: max_use = 300 lmtp_destination_recipient_limit = 1000 lmtp_destination_concurrency_limit = 1000 I've noticed that postconf doesn't know about these last two, which is troubling. lmtp delivery works fine, but I'm not getting the single instance store, as verified by ls -i on the message files. Here's what a delivery looks like in maillog: Feb 12 11:20:14 paradigm postfix/smtpd[22910]: connect from ltsc.ucsb.edu[128.111.224.224] Feb 12 11:20:14 paradigm postfix/smtpd[22910]: 5055E22E16: client=ltsc.ucsb.edu[128.111.224.224] Feb 12 11:20:14 paradigm postfix/cleanup[22911]: 5055E22E16: message-id=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Feb 12 11:20:14 paradigm postfix/qmgr[22854]: 5055E22E16: from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, size=518362, nrcpt=3 (queue active) Feb 12 11:20:14 paradigm postfix/smtpd[22910]: disconnect from ltsc.ucsb.edu[128.111.224.224] Feb 12 11:20:14 paradigm postfix/lmtp[22913]: 5055E22E16: to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, relay=/var/imap/socket/lmtp[/var/imap/socket/lmtp], delay=0, status=sent (250 2.1.5 Ok) Feb 12 11:20:14 paradigm postfix/lmtp[22914]: 5055E22E16: to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, relay=/var/imap/socket/lmtp[/var/imap/socket/lmtp], delay=0, status=sent (250 2.1.5 Ok) Feb 12 11:20:14 paradigm postfix/lmtp[22913]: 5055E22E16: to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, relay=/var/imap/socket/lmtp[/var/imap/socket/lmtp], delay=0, status=sent (250 2.1.5 Ok) So it looks like it's using a new lmtp process each time, which is not what I'd expect. Any suggestions? Thanks. -David
