I am trying to set up postfix to accept [EMAIL PROTECTED] since it is otherwise rejected due to cannot find hostname error because of main.cf uce restrictions. As an attempt to allow the connection, I created an access.db and put a permissive permission in main.cf.
Even though my restrictions put the permissive definition before the others, it appears that the order of listing of individual definitions does not control the tests. How can I set up postfix to have the same tight restrictions and yet allow something like [EMAIL PROTECTED] to get by the tests? I have emailed [EMAIL PROTECTED] and notified them of this error. Details of the problem follow: My restrictions in /etc/postfix/main.cf in this order are: permissive = permit smtpd_client_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, reject_rbl_client dnsbl.njabl.org, reject_rbl_client relays.osirusoft.com, reject_rbl_client bl.spamcop.net, reject_rbl_client list.dsbl.org, reject_unknown_client smtpd_helo_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, reject_invalid_hostname, reject_unknown_hostname [EMAIL PROTECTED] postfix]# uname -a Linux www 2.4.20-20.9 #1 Mon Aug 18 11:45:58 EDT 2003 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux [EMAIL PROTECTED] postfix]# rpm -qa | grep postfix postfix-2.0.11-4 [EMAIL PROTECTED] postfix]# postmap -q [EMAIL PROTECTED] access permissive [EMAIL PROTECTED] postfix]# grep reject /var/log/maillog Aug 24 04:37:31 www postfix/smtpd[2917]: EC710E0541: reject: RCPT from unknown[195.18.71.121]: 450 Client host rejected: cannot find your hostname, [195.18.71.121]; from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> to=<me> proto=ESMTP helo=<mail.readershouse.nl> ...
