So I'm running postfix on Gentoo, and have been doing so happily since |
| 2 |
about November. Until today I got a rejection for relayed mail notice |
| 3 |
from Road Runner. I read on their site that this happens when your IP |
| 4 |
address sends more than 1000 e-mails in 24 hours. My first thought was |
| 5 |
my windows-using roommates, but then I checked my e-mail server from the |
| 6 |
outside and indeed it was open. This is weird though, because I believe |
| 7 |
I have it configured for authenticated users only. I even tried setting |
| 8 |
it to only allow connections from this host, and still it happily |
| 9 |
accepts connections from outside and tries to relay those e-mails to |
| 10 |
other domains (of course, I would expect it to accept mail for |
| 11 |
electronsweatshop.com.) Here are some settings in /etc/postfix/main.cf |
| 12 |
that I think are relevant, anybody have any comments/criticisms/suggestions? |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
myorigin = $myhostname |
| 15 |
mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, $mydomain |
| 16 |
mynetworks_style = subnet # I tried setting to host to see if that would |
| 17 |
# solve the problem (nope) |
| 18 |
smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes |
| 19 |
smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous |
| 20 |
smtpd_sasl_local_domain = |
| 21 |
broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes |
| 22 |
# I've tried the following also adding |
| 23 |
reject_unauth_destination,reject_unknown_client, but that didn't solve |
| 24 |
the problem either |
| 25 |
smtpd_client_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated |
| 26 |
smtp_use_tls = yes |
| 27 |
smtpd_use_tls=yes |
| 28 |
smtpd_tls_auth_only = yes |
| 29 |
relayhost = smtp-server.carolina.rr.com |
| 30 |
# I actually have several domains listed here. Does anyone know how to |
| 31 |
get it to allow me to relay to all domains once I have properly |
| 32 |
authenticated? |
| 33 |
relay_domains = bunchofdomains.com |
| 34 |
smtpd_tls_security_level = may |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
I fully appreciate any help anyone can offer. I made this setup just by |
| 37 |
following some guides I found here and there online, and don't really |
| 38 |
have a good grasp on the 6 volume manual that is postfix docs :) |

But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people |
| 44 |
for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him |
| 45 |
who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. Once you were |
| 46 |
not a people, but now you are God's people; once you had not received |
| 47 |
mercy, but now you have received mercy. ~1 Peter 2:9-10 |
