Folks:
I need some help diagnosing a problem using postfix as my outbound mail server
with Mailman.
Up front I want to say, I have this working FINE with my current mailman list
server. I'm in the process of moving my list server to an AWS lightsail
instance.
And, yes, I know that I could use postfix as both the inbound & outbound mail
server ... which I probably should do, but I'm far more familiar with using sendmail
and have it setup & working fine on my current list server.
I've got just about everything setup and working fine.
The problem is, I'm seeing this in my mail log...
Nov 15 15:41:43 lists postfix/smtp[18136]: AA76A61E61:
to=, relay=none, delay=0.01,
delays=0/0/0/0, dsn=5.4.6, status=bounced (mail for localhost loops back to myself)
It _appears_ that postfix thinks it's the mail server for lists.atestdomain.net
and can't deliver the mail because it doesn't know how to deliver the message.
Here's my current setup:
I have sendmail listening on the public SMTP ports on the server. I have postfix
listening on localhost:24. Mailman is configured with the SMTPHOST & SMTPPORT set
to localhost & 24.
So mail is received by sendmail, sent to & processed by Mailman, and Mailman
sends the mail out by connecting to postfix on localhost:24.
The list mail is being delivered fine ... but bounces are not getting processed
correctly.
I have the domain lists.atestdomain.net listed in the transport map indicating
that mail for that domain should be sent to localhost:25.
You can see a relatively complete log fragment at
https://code.midrange.com/e665e40f93.html
Here's (what I think are) the relevant postfix config file entries ...
main.cf:
myhostname = listmail.arealdomain.com
mydomain = $myhostname
myorigin = $mydomain
inet_interfaces = localhost
mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost
transport_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/transport
transport:
lists.atestdomain.net smtp:localhost:25
listmail.arealdomain.com smtp:localhost:25
master.cf
24 inet n - n - - smtpd
Any suggestions on what to look at?
