Mail routing problem

Hi All,

I have 3 domains setup on my server, since I setup the 3rd I no longer receive email. The new domain is listed in local_host_names and virtusertable.

This is the reply I get if i sent from yahoo to my acoounts.

This is the contents of the mail.log

The dig MX returns my IP address for all the domains.

I have also tried sending email between the domains, this does not work either. Not sure what I ave done wrong..

Any help gratefully received.

Steve

 

Ok, I have found something that maybe wrong.

Here is a record from my mail.log.ispconfigsave from when my mail was correctly routed.

Now here is the same part from mail.log today.

As you can see it seems to be routing my mail back to the external email relay I use instead of local.

Not sure how to correct this.

Thanks

Steve

 

Is server.home2 the domain of the email address? That's no official domain and therefore it's not routeable.

 

Hi Falko,

Thanks for your reply.

Looking at the server.home2, it was the same when I was receiving email before.

All that seems to have changed is that relay=local to relay=smtp.blueyonder.co.uk

Thanks

Steve

 

Hi,

I'm still struggling with this one. What makes it server.home2? where can this be changed, everything seemed fine till I added another domain on to ISPConfig.

Thanks

Steve

 

What's in /etc/postfix/main.cf?

Thank you for your reply.

What's in /etc/mailname?

 

Hi Falko,

Thanks again for your reply.

mailname contains.

Code:

server.home2

Thanks

Steve

 

Ok, change the myhostname setting in /etc/postfix/main.cf and the hostname in /etc/mailname and restart Postfix.

 

Hi falko,

Not sure what I should change it to, I have 3 domains hosted on ISPconfig.

Thanks

Steve

 

I'd buy a "technical" domain that you use only for naming your servers, but not for web sites, email, etc. You could then use server1.technicaldomain.com, server2.technicaldomain.com, etc.

 

Hi Falko,

Once again Thank You for all your help.

In the end I just needed to add server.home2 to the local-host-names file.

All seems to be working correctly now.

Thanks

Steve
