Hi. I'd rather it ran from inetd. These are single user systems, intended to be fed via pop3/fetchmail/procmail/mutt, flowing back via my ISP's smarthost. I've fought with Sendmail successfully in the past, limped along with exim* for years, and now Postfix. What're my most obvious blunders? Exim allowed me to supply my ISP password in passwd.client. How's that done in Postfix? Suggest config/log files I can show you? My systems are all behind a router on 192.*, and my ISP (not me) is nucleus.com (shouldn't matter).
Thanks. -------------------------------------------------------- (127) newmil [root] /var/log_ apt-cache policy postfix postfix: Installed: 2.5.5-1.1 Candidate: 2.5.5-1.1 Version table: *** 2.5.5-1.1 0 500 http://ftp.us.debian.org sid/main Packages 500 http://ftp.de.debian.org unstable/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status Jan 16 01:13:56 newmil postfix/master[2782]: daemon started -- version 2.5.5, configuration /etc/postfix Jan 16 01:13:57 newmil postfix/master[2782]: reload configuration /etc/postfix Jan 16 18:23:20 newmil postfix/pickup[21212]: E2196BBF7: uid=1000 from=<keeling> Jan 16 18:23:20 newmil postfix/cleanup[21707]: E2196BBF7: message-id=<20090117012320.ga21...@newmil.nucleus.com> Jan 16 18:23:20 newmil postfix/qmgr[2845]: E2196BBF7: from=<keel...@newmil.nucleus.com>, size=2517, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Jan 16 18:23:21 newmil postfix/smtp[21710]: E2196BBF7: to=<keel...@nucleus.com>, relay=smtp.nucleus.com[66.18.251.14]:25, delay=0.4, delays=0.06/0.02/0.29/0.02, dsn=5.1.8, status=bounced (host smtp.nucleus.com[66.18.251.14] said: 550 5.1.8 <keel...@newmil.nucleus.com> Invalid address (in reply to MAIL FROM command)) Jan 16 18:23:21 newmil postfix/cleanup[21707]: 4E2AABBFA: message-id=<20090117012321.4e2aab...@newmil.nucleus.com> Jan 16 18:23:21 newmil postfix/qmgr[2845]: 4E2AABBFA: from=<>, size=4409, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Jan 16 18:23:21 newmil postfix/bounce[21711]: E2196BBF7: sender non-delivery notification: 4E2AABBFA Jan 16 18:23:21 newmil postfix/qmgr[2845]: E2196BBF7: removed Jan 16 18:23:22 newmil postfix/local[21712]: 4E2AABBFA: to=<keel...@newmil.nucleus.com>, relay=local, delay=1.2, delays=0.01/0.11/0/1, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered to command: /usr/bin/procmail) Jan 16 18:23:22 newmil postfix/qmgr[2845]: 4E2AABBFA: removed Jan 16 22:48:31 newmil postfix/master[2782]: terminating on signal 15 Jan 16 22:49:18 newmil postfix/postfix-script[2655]: fatal: the Postfix mail system is not running Jan 16 22:49:21 newmil postfix/master[2890]: daemon started -- version 2.5.5, configuration /etc/postfix -------------------------------------------------------- -- Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.
