Hello to everybody. I'm trying to realize a local mailserver that will connect with a dialup connection to a main mailserver. To send emails, I've realized an email relay with queues. To receive emails, I want to configure getmail on the local mailserver with a POP3 connection to the main mailserver. As you can see on the link http://www.howtoforge.com/debian_etch_getmail_p3, there are some configurations explained. The problem is that, in the local server, I've configured postfix with virtual accounts (and queries from a mysql database). The default mailbox is Code: virtual_mailbox_base = /var/vmail and on the main mailserver(realized with perfectserver and ISPConfig3), every time that I receive an email, I'll find it in /var/vmail/domain/user/new Well on this local server, I have nothing in /var/vmail and so I don't know in the getmail configuration what I've to put into [destination] section. Somebody may give me some good suggestions? Cheers Michele
In this case I'd try something like this: Code: [destination] type = MDA_external path = /usr/sbin/sendmail arguments = ("-i", "-bm", "[email protected]") unixfrom = true
Hi Falko, thanks for the reply. I've tried what you suggest me, but it's look like the local mailserver is trying to deliver the email to the real [email protected] and not in the local one... Maybe this is because I don't have configured properly postfix... (in fact I can't login with pop3...) Thanks Michele
Hi Falko. Now the mailserver is ok, I can connect with POP3 and IMAP. I've configured getmail as you said, but, I confirm my post of before, the local mailserver it's look like it want to send the emails received to the real [email protected], and not to the local one... How is possible? thanks Michele
