How to troubleshoot timeout after xxxxxx problems

2012-08-31 Thread Jeff Lacki
Hello- Ive been trying to debug timeouts on my postfix 2.9.4 + dovecot 2.1.8 + mysql 5.x problems lately (when I find time to dig into it) with no luck. Ive read as many online articles as I can but still cant find the issue. This is a new configuration using mysql and dovecot on fedora 17.

send-mail: fatal: usage: send-mail [-c config_dir] [-Dv] command

2012-04-13 Thread Jeff Lacki
I think I sent my post to the wrong email, so Im re-posting. I recently installed a new linux box with an older (2.8.x) postfix config. Everything seemed to go fine, but when I try to send mail from the linux box using /bin/mailx I get the following in the shell: send-mail: invalid option -- 'i'

cant deliver emails to gmail - no bounced msgs either

Hi- In the last few days I noticed that email I send to my gmail account from my postfix server never makes it to gmail. I havent touched the config in a few weeks so nothing should have changed from when it worked. My server relays through my ISP. My domain DNS records are working fine and I

No indication that the user authenticated. When someone authenticates you'll get a log line something like Feb 12 09:24:06 mgate2 postfix/smtpd[93626]: E4E077978A8: client=user.example.org[192.168.1.163], sasl_method=CRAM-MD5, sasl_username=username Ive been looking at this for a couple

That fixed it. I knew it would be something simple, in the end it usually is. Thanks so much Noel!

Im sorry if this is a basic question, but googling it has me more confused. I need to relay my u...@domain (where Im located) to a remote server I own to email. Im not located on my own domain name, Im on an ATT connection, but want to send to a domain I own (which runs postfix). I thought all

The email address I use is not my servers domain name however, but can postfix recognize my From field and allow it to relay? If so, how do I do this? Yes, but allowing anyone with that MAIL FROM to relay through your Postfix server is unwise since that credential is easily spoofed. Only
