Hi, I have a problem on my mail web server that i installed based on this post: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-ubuntu-12.04-lts-apache2-bind-dovecot-ispconfig-3. When i want to send emails to mailboxes out of my domain i got a message : (mail.log) Code: Sep 21 20:54:12 mail postfix/smtpd[19056]: connect from unknown[192.168.1.10] Sep 21 20:54:26 mail postfix/smtpd[19056]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from unknown[192.168.1.10]: 550 5.1.1 <ecipient address rejected: User unknown in virtual mailbox table; from=<[email protected]> to=<[email protected]> proto=ESMTP helo=<NoonPC> Sep 21 20:54:29 mail postfix/smtpd[19056]: disconnect from unknown[192.168.1.10] I have 3 PC in lan.

I'm adding things: I got the error when sending from a mailbox handled by my server to a mailbox handled by my ISP (both are @wanadoo.fr). I added the domain wanadoo.fr on my server so i can get the mails from my ISP to my server and then IMAP them from my server to my users PCs.
The tutorial is ok for set up an Internet mail server. Your needs are different. For receiving mail from your remote mailboxes you must to use fetchmail and for delivery you need one transport per destination.
Hi I'm receiving mails from ISP mailboxes, the "only" problem is sending mails to theses mailboxes from my server using smtp.
Hi, Coming back for news. Did a fresh new installation following the same Howto and i still can't send any emails outside my LAN. Is it normal? I configured postfix as an "Internet site with smarthost", filled the "relayhost = " in the postfix main.cf and still impossible to get out. I always have this in /var/log/mail.log: Sep 28 15:32:46 smtp postfix/smtpd[5913]: 750421022BC: reject: RCPT from Noon-PC.home[192.168.1.10]: 550 5.1.1 <[email protected]>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in virtual mailbox table; from=<[email protected]> to=<[email protected]> proto=ESMTP helo=<[192.168.1.10]> I tried other installations and that configuration works. Something in this tutorial blocks outside going mails, just can't find what...
Then you haven followed the tutorial correctly as it instructes you to use a different postfix preset, not smarthost. If you want to use a smarthost, then you can set this later in ispconfig. Dont edit the main.cf file directly to set a smarthost.
Hi, Thanks for your answer. I choose "Internet site with smarthost" because i had no answer to my previous posts and tried to make this work. If you look at my first post i did not choose any relayhost and emailing out wasn't working neither. I tried email routing, relay recipients and almost everything in ISPConfig without success. If this configuration isn't meant to send outgoing mails, just tell me i'll stop trying to. If i have to buy the ISPConfig documentation, tell me, i'll do it (i haven't seen anything about relays in the old version i bought for V2). I just find hard to believe that a "Perfect mail server" can't handle outgoing mails
These settimgs are not relevant for relaying. the Relay settings are under System > Server config > Email. According to the postfix error message, you tried to send a email without smtp authentication. So the first step you should do is to enable smtp aurhentication in your mail client, this is a client settings, not a setting of your server or in ispconfig. It works on more then hundred thousand servers worldwide that use this setup, so it should work on your servera s well And it does not matter if you use the server on a datacenter or your local lan.
Hi again! I've just made a fresh installation following the Howto to the letter and i've got this: Code: Sep 29 04:59:08 mail postfix/submission/smtpd[19795]: connect from unknown[192.168.1.10] Sep 29 04:59:08 mail postfix/submission/smtpd[19795]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from unknown[192.168.1.10]: 550 5.1.1 <[email protected]>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in virtual mailbox table; from=<[email protected]> to=<[email protected]> proto=ESMTP helo=<[192.168.1.10]> Sep 29 04:59:09 mail postfix/submission/smtpd[19795]: disconnect from unknown[192.168.1.10] wanadoo.fr : is my ISP declared as a domain in ISPconfig3.

I'm fetching correctly my mail. Still impossible to get outside Edit: I have that problem only on domains that are defined on ISPConfig3. I can send mails outside to other domains. They don't get out if their domain exists in ISPConfig3.
Hi, I don't know if i found a bug but here's what i've found on my problem: I can't send a mail to a mailbox whose domain if defined on my server but does not exist on it. More specifically: My ISP is Orange.fr. They were known as Wanadoo.fr years ago. I have mailboxes created with the @wanadoo.fr. If i want to fetch my mail from these boxes i have to define this domain in ISPConfig3 and set a fetchmail task. By doing this i can get all my mail on my server. I can send emails to anybody but people that have email adresses ending by @wanadoo.fr. If i do that i have the "User unknown in virtual mailbox table". Sending mails to other users that end with @orange.fr works fine. A few days ago i tried building a server "by hand". Mailing the same way was working (the "relayhost=" field in main.cf of postfix is used to send every unknown adresses on the server to an external relay). When i use ISPConfig3 it doesn't. That leaves two possibilities: - I have not configured correctly ISPConfig3 - There is a bug in ISPConfig3 Does this ring any bells to anybody?
Thare is no such bug in ispconfig, just a misconfiguration on your sever. You can not define a domain of a external mail provider as local domain on your server and you dont need that to fetch emails. Thats not ispconfig specific, if you tell a mail server that it is authoritive for a domain name then it catches all email addresses of that domain an rejects unknown addresses. So you told the server that you are the owner of wanadoo.fr and the server acts like this. Thre is no need for such a configuration, if you want to ftch emails from a existing wanadoo.fr account, then use the ftchmail function to get the emails from the pop3 or imap account.
And once again the problem was between the keyboard and the chair! Corrected the domains and all works fine. Thank you really much for your time helping me
