Jordi Ferran updated JAMES-1414:
--------------------------------
Description:
I started to play with SMTPServer handler and I discovered external mails send
to James are rejected.
No explicit "reject" keyword is seen in log file, but this is the reality, mail
do not enter the mailbox.
I've discovered that the SPFHandler is the cause of this problem.
I've looked into the source code, I modified configuration parameters, but I do
not fully comprehend the reason for the mail to be rejected or not delivered to
the mailbox.
The log says:
Id='1135436670' User='' No Sender or HELO/EHLO present
The configuration:
<handler class="org.apache.james.smtpserver.fastfail.SPFHandler">
<blockSoftFail>false</blockSoftFail>
<blockPermError>false</blockPermError>
<checkAuthNetworks>false</checkAuthNetworks>
</handler>
My interpretation:
"No Sender" => Not authorized user logged (no sender for controlled domains) =>
OK
"No HELO/EHLO" => OK, two external servers are not using this command => OK to
me, I do not enforce the use of HELO/EHLO.
The log points to an if-condition where the method returns without rejecting
the email, but the true effect is that somehow the incoming mail is not
delivered to the mailbox. I raised LogLevel to DEBUG an no stacktrace is seen,
don't know where to search for more clues.
Right now I don't know how to handle this problem. If it is my fault, I would
appreciate an indication on how to configure the handler.
Thanks in advance.
