Re: [qmailtoaster] Is it getting Blocked?
Friends,
here is the result of a qmlog smtp -t 100 ( i sifted through that for a
reference to the 'other' machine )
09-02 12:35:46 CHKUSER rejected sender: from r...@taster.local::
remote mail-out2.fuse.net:unknown:
216.68.8.171 rcpt : invalid sender MX domain
09-02 12:35:58 CHKUSER rejected sender: from r...@taster.local::
remote mail-out2.fuse.net:unknown:
216.68.8.171 rcpt : invalid sender MX domain
so my Q might be ::: can I make CHKUSER allow the sender of
r...@taster.local.
maybe if I recompile CHKUSER ( i am thinking much like I recompiled it
to allow blackberriness (\) )
might that work? -- do you think? and what would i 'say' when i
recompile chckuser?
what i am doing : I have a simple machine on a DSL ( fuse is ma bell
here ) on that machine I am croning a perl that monitors several
websites ( from *outside* my 2-T1 connections ) and that machine
(taster) is running sendMail that sends -- upon alarm an email to the
fuse mail server
and of course. My QMT does the chckuser and sees a conflict between
o...@taster.local from mail-out2.fuse.net ... or that is what i *think
is happening. note changing my domain (hosts file) on taster to
taster.fuse.net didn't work.

Postfix lets you easily control this on the sender's end. See the
myorigin parameter. That's where the proper fix is.
FWIW, sendmail is terribly antiquated. Reminds me of assembler macros.
If you would have implemented postfix (days ago), you'd be done with
this by now.

You are correct there. chkuser has an option to check for the sending domain's MX record and deny if the sending domain does not have an MX record. Seems logical since if there is an error you need somewhere to send that error message to and if there is no MX record there is nowhere to send it (also acts as a spam check). You can go in and recompile chkuser to turn this option off (*CHKUSER_RCPT_MX*) by undefining it. It is undefined in later versions of chkuser but I plan to leave it on when I update chkuser - it makes more sense to keep it because of what it does rather than remove it and force 98% of our users to then turn it back on. You may also be able to turn it off in your tcp.smtp file for specific IP addresses, much like SENDER_NOCHECK, but I have not tried this and no one else has posted back as to the validity of this. You can also add that domain to your DNS so it does have a valid MX record. Hope that helps some.
Re: [qmailtoaster] Is it getting Blocked?
I take that as good advice - i appreciate it.
I reckon i could do that.
from your earlier wisdom
might i be correct in think that i need to customize

Yes, but without the brackets (curly braces).
and
relayhost = {submission.server.com}:587
to

Yes, but without the brackets (curly braces).
where smtp.fuse.net = the (dsl) isp mailServer - Not my local machine
taster.local
and
myFuseUser:myFuseUserPasswd = a valid user /psswd on that server
Instead of using smtp.fuse.net, you might be able to send it straight to
your server by substituting your mail server's url/user/password,
providing that fuse.net doesn't block port 587.
Thanks!

Re: [qmailtoaster] Is it getting Blocked?
Friends, :: an update ::
I have retained the postfix how to in case i need it
I got my thing working via sendmail ( 'cause i was close ) and using
the providers mailserver.( smtp.fuse.net )
basically i am able to monitor our servers ( like I am outside the
network ) via this dsl
and I can send an email that I can get on my mobile device
so i can get to my fuse account ( the dsl Ma Bell folks here in cincy )
and I have THAT account set to forward mail to my pps account ( that
uses a qmail toaster mail server )
I reckon -- qmail sees that as , well ... i do not know -- but it never
gets to my inside
( but , i am basically happy - cause I can have my desk clinet also
looking at my fuse and --it also rings in my pocketso..it is workable )
I was wondering what logs I might look at to see if this 'fuse relay '
is hitting my qmail toaster server?
I reckon I will never get the messages to - just come through.
Thanks

In a typical configuration, it would be hitting your smtp server port
25, which you would see in your smtp log:
# qmlog -lc fuse\.net

Re: [qmailtoaster] Is it getting Blocked?
hey eric
Thanks for this I will try it today -- one thing though
regarding : hostname being set correctly for your domain
currently I have the hostname as : taster.local
this machine is sitting off of a router connected to a DSL -- I do not
have a domain like
pps-inc.com --- so is that OK
basically i think you are saying 2 things should 'match' I wonder if I
am clear on that...
I am not doing DNS or a MX for this particular dude.
also I am using my isp smpt.fuse.net
also also _ I have never done a yum remove of sendmail ( or anything
like that before...)
I might like to copy the sendmail.cf some where to see the alterations
I made
things like the SEND_AUTH stuff.
thanks again!

myorigin is the domain that you want postfix to appear to be sending
from. In your case, I think you'd want to use:
myorigin = pps-inc.com
also I am using my isp smpt.fuse.net
That shouldn't come into play (unless they're blocking port 587 outbound
from your remote/postfix server).
also also _ I have never done a yum remove of sendmail ( or anything
like that before...)
I might like to copy the sendmail.cf some where to see the alterations
I made

Suit yourself. You shouldn't really need it any more though.
thanks again!
Sure.

[qmailtoaster] Is it getting Blocked?
I am not even sure how to ask this question... but here goes. I have a server that is outside my domain , outside my netwrok that i am running a perl script on to monitor my websites -- from the outside. ok the perl works - but it is to send an email to me -- inside my network the emails come from r...@taster.local. I suspect that qmail is rejecting the mail. where in the logs might i see that? what log - and in var\log\qmail\--smtp or what? and if I find it being -rejected- if that is the right way to say it... can i white list anything fromr...@taster.local thanks! js
RE: [qmailtoaster] Is it getting Blocked?
I suspect it's some RDNS or MX that's getting you. You might try a telnet mail from that server or even a regular mail client. It may reveal the problem quickly.

That's not telling us much. I sure don't know, and don't care to know sendmail. If you'd try using postfix again we might be of more help. For what you need, postfix isn't a bad choice.

Re: [qmailtoaster] Is it getting Blocked?
Hey Jim,
I just happened to be doing this today, so here are my notes on how to
set up postfix to send mail out from a generic server, like for logwatch
output and such (that would otherwise go to r...@localhost).
{replace what's in braces, and remove braces}
# yum install postfix
# yum remove sendmail
# cd /etc/pki/tls/certs
# make postcert.pem
# echo {submission.server.com}:587 {user:passwd} \
/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd
# chmod 600 /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd
# chown root:root /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd
# postmap /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd
Edit /etc/aliases if desired, then do newaliases command:
root: sysadmin
# newaliases
Edit /etc/postfix/main.cf, changing these from the default values (this
was CentOS5.3):
myorigin = $mydomain
#mydestination =
mynetworks_style = host
relayhost = {submission.server.com}:587
smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtp_sasl_password_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd
smtp_sasl_security_options =
smtp_use_tls = yes
smtp_tls_CAfile = /etc/pki/tls/certs/postcert.pem
smtp_tls_session_cache_database = btree:/var/run/smtp_tls_session/cache
# service postfix start
# chkconfig postfix on
That should do it.
Note, this configuration relies on hostname being set correctly for your
domain. If it's not, you'll need to change the myorigin variable
appropriately.
Please let us know whether or not this works for you.

Figures there'd be a type-o or two.
smtp_tls_session/cache should be smtp_tls_session_cache
