    Hi,

    I'm still testing out my new server and now noticed, that I can not send mails to an emailadress configured with ISPConfig. I allways get the messages "User unknown in local recipient table".

    Does anybody have an idea how to solve or where to look at?


    Thanks,

    Heiner

    Did you create a co-domain yourdomain.com for the website www.yourdomain.com with empty hostname field?

    This looks fine.Please post the content of /etc/postfix/main.cf, comments stripped.

    One step further ...

    Okay, when I make a

    Code:
    postmap virtusertable
    rcpostfix reload
    I get an other error:

    Code:
    <[email protected]> (expanded from <[email protected]>): Host or domain name not found. Name service error for name=88-198-66-74.clients.your-server.de type=AAAA: Host found but no data record of requested type
    Firstly, it seems that virtusertable.db is not compiled correctly by ISPConfig. And there seems to be some DNS problem.

    Any idea where to screw next?

    The DNS problem is solved now, I had to add the servername to $mydestination in /etc/postfix/main.cf.

    Will ISPConfig overwrite this setting?

    And how can I ensure, ISPConfig will properly create the hash files in /etc/postfix/? I don't want to do this on my own, whenever someone changes the mailconfiguration.


    Cheers,

    I've checked /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/ispconfig.log, and it reports a problem:

    Code:
    23.09.2007 - 20:55:46 => WARN - /root/ispconfig/scripts/lib/classes/ispconfig_postfix.lib.php, Line 289: WARNING: could not postmap hash:/etc/postfix/virtusertable
    When I call postmap manually on /etc/postfix/virtusertable, I don't get any problems. So, why can't this be called by ISPConfig?

    Do not add this to mydestination. You should add it at the end of /etc/postfix/local-host-names.

    Okay, I moved it to local-host-names.

    But the main problem remains. When the mailconfiguration is changed in ISPConfig, the virtusertable is messed up. ISPConfig can not call postmap. But why not? virtusertable.db has exactly the same rights as virtusertable. The interesting thing is, that both files are changed. Some programm is updating virtusertable.db.

    I removed the line causing the warning. virtusertable.db is still updated. What is going on here?

    This line is correct. What is the content of the field "Virtuser Datei:" in ISPConfig under management > server > settings on the mail tab? Make sure that there are no spaches at the front before the file name.

    Solved (hopefully ...)

    I checked the entry and there were no leading or trailing spaces. However, I realized, that the line in question should not have been called at all.

    The MTA type was set to Postfix (according to the webpage), as I run this. But the code causing the troubles is only supposed to be executed when using Sendmail. Line 43 of <tt>/root/ispconfig/scripts/lib/classes/ispconfig_postfix.lib.php</tt> is:

    Code:
    if($go_info["server"]["postfix_config"] == 1){  // SENDMAIL-STYLE
    After I changed the style first to Sendmail and afterwards back to Postfix, everything goes well. Changes to the email configuration are written to the virtusertable, and postmap works without problems. And most importand: Mail are not rejected anymore ;)

    Could it be, that there is a problem in the installation? I don't remember I changed the MTA setting before.


    Thanks for your support,

    Sendmail and postfix style works both with postfix and they both must execute the postmap command. It are just different config file layouts.

    Any other suggestions for a solution?

    Hi!

    Have the exact same problem with my setup, as soon as the mailsystem is updated with a new address or a change the server stops accepting mail:

    Oct 4 13:14:18 suse postfix/postmap[19885]: fatal: open database /etc/postfix/virtusertable.db: No such file or directory

    I tried the last tip, changed MTA style, but I had no luck with that, same problem occurs every time I change something. If I run postmap manually and restart the server everything is fine again.

    Anyone find a solution yet or something else I could try?

    Thanks,

    Hi!

    Sorry to hear you have the same problem, it's a real pain. I had to upgrade postfix to the latest version via an rpm, only solution I've found so far.

    The problem with that is that it breaks TLS somehow, all mail except those who try to use authentication is delivered, and I've had to comment out everything having to do with TLS from main.cf. When the server doesn't accept TLS everything is delivered again, even emails from domains that first try to use authentication.

    There's probably a solution for that somewhere but I'm new at this and spare time, reluctant admin of our web hotel so I haven't researched it more.

    Maybe I'll dig deeper when I move the whole thing to another dist somewhere in the future...

    Good Luck!
