Postfix and smtp auth/sasl

Postfix and Network Solutions certificates

SASL authentication failed; cannot authenticate to server smtp.office365.com[52.97.201.66]: no mechanism available

HOWTO

Test smtp with telnet or openssl

Postfix and LDAP

Send mail via relay with authentication

See SASL_README

tls on outgoing mail

smtp_use_tls = yes
smtp_tls_security_level = may

TODO is all this really needed?? 

smtp_tls_CAfile = /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt

smtp_tls_key_file = /etc/postfix/ssl/domainname.com.key

FAQ

smtp vs smtpd

smtpd = incoming

smtp = outgoing


Stop trying to bounce to noreply@

In transport_maps set 

noreply@example.com discard

and in main.cf 

transport_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/transport_maps

remember to 

postmap /etc/postfix/transport_maps

and 

postfix reload

warning: no MX host for xxx has a valid address record

Probably means the defined MX record does not resolve

Limit CC

/etc/postfix/header_checks 

/^To:([^@]*@){50,}/ REJECT Sorry, your message has too many recepients.
/^Cc:([^@]*@){50,}/ REJECT Sorry, your message has too many recepients.

fatal: bad string length 0 < 1: sendmail_path =

Looks like a debconf feature, install mailutils and 

postconf -e sendmail_path=/usr/sbin/sendmail

and probably also 

postconf -e mailq_path=/usr/bin/mailq
postconf -e newaliases_path=/usr/bin/newaliases

then 

postfix reload

to check, maybe more broke

log subject

https://raymii.org/s/tutorials/Postfix_Log_message_from_to_and_subject_headers.html

Create file /etc/postfix/header_checks and put in: 

/^[Ss]ubject:/  WARN

and in /etc/postfix/main.cf 

header_checks = regexp:/etc/postfix/header_checks

 

rate limit outgoing mail

Probably start with 

postconf -e smtp_destination_rate_delay=5s

this seems safe for outlook.

queue

Clean the postfix queue

mailq | grep ^[A-F0-9]| awk '{ print $1 }'| sed 's/*//' | while read i;do postsuper -d  ${i};done

Or simple: 

postsuper -d ALL

View message in queue

postcat

Delete message from queue

postsuper -d

Requeue all mails

postsuper -r ALL

or 

postqueue -f


delivery temporarily suspended

Postfix as secondary MX

relay_domains = foo.com, bar.com
relay_recipient_maps =
          hash:/etc/postfix/relay_recipients

 

milter-reject 4.7.0 DNS timeout

Most likely caused by sid-filter, aka milter-sid, aka sid-milter. Try adding "-D" to the rc.conf or defaults or whatever file starting it.

postqueue: fatal: Connect to the Postfix showq service: Permission denied

postfix set-permissions

too many concurrent connections

If that's what you get sending to a server you don't control, check 

initial_destination_limit (??)

smtp_destination_concurrency_limit

 

warning: SASL authentication failure: No worthy mechs found

could be missing cyrus-sasl-plain

 

Sender address rejected: need fully-qualified address

myorigin = /etc/mailname

If you're using mailutils, make sure fqdn is in /etc/hostname, double check with hostname -f See also 

mail --config-help

about contents of /etc/mailutils.conf, and 

man hostname

newaliases: fatal: bad string length 0 < 1: setgid_group =

Probably Ubuntu (Debian?), comment out the setgid_group line

warning: TLS library problem: error:1420918C:SSL routines:tls_early_post_process_client_hello:version too low:ssl/statem/statem_srvr.c:1686:

delivery temporarily suspended

Connection timed out

if IP changed in transport, remember to postmap transport, also see 

postqueue -i
