Can you re-do the Postfix/saslauthd configuration from the appropriate "Perfect Setup" on HowtoForge?
Falko, 1. Do you mean to follow the "The Perfect Setup - SUSE 9.3"-Page 5? Do exactly as requested on the page? 2. Will it disrupt my current setups (domains, email client, hostings etc)? 3. How do I backup my current ISPConfig setup, just incase everythings goes bad? Guys, thanks for your help! Jaf
If you have SuSE 9.3 installed, then yes. If you have ISPConfig installed, then this setup is exactly what you need. However, you could back up /etc/postfix/main.cf before.
Sorry for asking again.... but you have not answered Q2 :-( I need to reconfirm whether: 1. Doing this will overwrite my current DNS settings? 2. Doing this will overwrite my current EMAIL settings? 3. Doing this will overwrite my current Hosting settings? 4. If YES. What should I do to restore the settings after 'redoing the postfix/saslauthd'? 5. Will my current user not be able to use the email services during resetting? 6. Will this redo interrupt the DNS setting? Hope you could answer all 6 questions. I love you solution and hope to work out this problem... Thanks Jaf
Falko, I am not familiar with linux or apt-get that well. I will try ... 1. The apt-get will overwrite whatever existing in my current system, right? 2. In the following script: ----------------------------------------------------- postconf -e 'mydomain = example.com' postconf -e 'myhostname = server1.$mydomain' ----------------------------------------------------- Do I replace : example.com --> mileswork.com and server1 --> suse1 3. Just do the 'Postfix With SMTP-AUTH And TLS' portion right, I don't have to do the 'Courier-IMAP/Courier-POP3'? 4. Can I do this remotely from my home over ssh? 5. FYI, my hostname for the ISPConfig is: suse1.mileswork.com or www.mileswork.com Does this have to correspond to the SSL certificates? IF YES, how do I check my SSL certificate info? Thanks, Jaf
It won't overwrite your configuration files. Yes. If POP3 is working and you can receive emails, then you don't need to do this. Sure. Click on the lock icon in your browser. It should then display the details of the SSL cert.
Relay Access Denied Continued Hello Members I am newby to SUSE 10 and Linux. I have suprised my self by getting most things up and running on my laptop. I am having one problem that seems to be very common with a lot of newbies and that is i cant send my email smtp. Error message Relay Access Dennied. I have seen a lot of threads with various answers but i am not familier with system setup or protocols etc. I have used the same settings as in windows but with no success
You must enable "Server requires authentication." in your email client. http://mail.cs.uiuc.edu/relay/outlook-config.html
Relay Access Denied - email Working Now i entered my pop3 email user name and password in the smpt authorisation and it enabled me to send emails. IT NOW WORKS Thank you.
Falko, Just did as requested. Redo the 'Postfix/saslauthd' configuration from "Perfect Setup". Still having the same problem: ========================================================== Sending failed: Authentication failed. Most likely the password is wrong. The server responded: "Error: authentication failed" The message will stay in the 'outbox' folder until you either fix the problem (e.g. a broken address) or remove the message from the 'outbox' folder. The following transport protocol was used: PLANIMA ========================================================== I'm really stucked! HELP Jaf Faizal [email protected] +6012-210-1991
I've never seen an error like this before. When you followed the tutorial, did you copy & paste the commands? Maybe you have a typo somewhere...

Management TAB/Server/Settings: Server Name : Suse1 Hostname : suse1 Domain : mileswork.com And, in KMail. SMTP settings tabs. 1. Is it Port 25? 2. Server requires authentication selected. Used the same Login/Password as for POP setting. 3. Under the Security Tabs - Encryption = NONE, Authentication Method = LOGIN. 4. In the Sending Tab, do I set, Message Property = "Allow 8-bit" OR "MIME Compliant (Quoted Printable)"? Is the above settings in KMail correct? Thanks
Yes. Correct. Should work like that. Don't know about this one as I don't use KMail, but I don't think it has something to do with your problem.
What about the installation steps? Are they correct? Else... how else can I check to rectify my problems. OR is there a possibility of you logging into my system? My clients using Outlook Express/Outlook is also experiencing the same problem I am experiencing. BTW, GMAIL set to port 465. Do I set to port 465 as well? Falko... appreciate your help. I do not want to jump onto another platform to manage my hosting. Thanks.
This: Code: postconf -e 'smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated,permit_mynetworks,check_ relay_domains' should be Code: postconf -e 'smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated,permit_mynetworks,check_relay_domains' We would have to charge you for that kind of support: http://www.ispconfig.org/support.htm No.
