Hi, I have this problem: I use my own server with ISPConfig to host my website let's call it www.mysite.com From ISPConfig, I have declared a admin user for that site with a dummy email address [email protected], as ISPConfig requires that users always have email addresses. I need this user, so that I can use FTP, but I don't need an email address for it. But ISPconfig doesn't let this choice. Actually, real email addresses linked to the mysite.com site are handled by a different server. One of these addresses is [email protected] My problem is: When I try to send a email to [email protected] from my server with ISPConfig (from a PHP script for instance) It returns: SMTP Error: Recipient not accepted. Verify your relay rules But what's strange is that when I check inside the admin user configuration: Email collector Scanmail It works! I really don't understand what's going on as there's no relation between mysite.com admin user configuration and the email address [email protected] Another problem is that when I check scanmail, outgoing messages get defanged styles Can you help me to fix that. Thanks Hmfireball
Thanks for your answer Till. Here's the test I carried from my server running ISPConfig: The name of my server running ISPConfig is: myserver Its domain is : myserver.com I login to the webmail of an user web9_anothersite whose site's domain is anothersite.com. His email address is [email protected] From this webmail, I attempt to send an email to: [email protected] www.mysite.com is a site hosted on myserver (its admin user is web2_admin) but [email protected] is not hosted on myserver but on a different one. I use the DNS server of my domain name registrar : mysite.com points to myserver but MX points to a server different from myserver here's what strange: when i set in web2_admin configuration scanmail and email collector on, mail is sent and log displays: Code: Jan 5 17:46:18 myserver postfix/smtpd[13129]: connect from localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1] Jan 5 17:46:18 myserver postfix/smtpd[13129]: 3933523D806F: client=localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1] Jan 5 17:46:18 myserver postfix/cleanup[13132]: 3933523D806F: message-id=<[email protected]> Jan 5 17:46:18 myserver postfix/qmgr[32701]: 3933523D806F: from=<[email protected]>, size=746, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Jan 5 17:46:18 myserver postfix/smtpd[13129]: disconnect from localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1] Jan 5 17:46:18 myserver dovecot: pop3-login: Login: user=<web9_anothersite>, method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, secured Jan 5 17:46:18 myserver dovecot: POP3(web9_anothersite): Disconnected: Logged out top=0/0, retr=0/0, del=0/0, size=0 Jan 5 17:46:18 myserver sendmail[13145]: n05GkIil013145: from=web2_admin, size=116, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<[email protected]>, relay=web2_admin@localhost Jan 5 17:46:18 myserver postfix/smtpd[13129]: connect from localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1] Jan 5 17:46:18 myserver postfix/smtpd[13129]: setting up TLS connection from localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1] Jan 5 17:46:18 myserver postfix/smtpd[13129]: Anonymous TLS connection established from localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1]: TLSv1 with cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA (256/256 bits) Jan 5 17:46:18 myserver sendmail[13145]: STARTTLS=client, relay=[127.0.0.1], version=TLSv1/SSLv3, verify=FAIL, cipher=DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA, bits=256/256 Jan 5 17:46:18 myserver postfix/smtpd[13129]: 4C7A523D8073: client=localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1], [email protected] Jan 5 17:46:18 myserver postfix/cleanup[13132]: 4C7A523D8073: message-id=<[email protected]> Jan 5 17:46:18 myserver postfix/qmgr[32701]: 4C7A523D8073: from=<[email protected]>, size=743, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Jan 5 17:46:18 myserver sendmail[13145]: n05GkIil013145: [email protected], ctladdr=web2_admin (10003/10002), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=30116, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (Ok: queued as 4C7A523D8073) Jan 5 17:46:18 myserver postfix/local[13147]: 4C7A523D8073: to=<[email protected]>, relay=local, delay=0.06, delays=0.05/0/0/0.01, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered to command: /usr/bin/procmail -f-) Jan 5 17:46:18 myserver postfix/qmgr[32701]: 4C7A523D8073: removed Jan 5 17:46:18 myserver postfix/smtpd[13129]: disconnect from localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1] Jan 5 17:46:18 myserver postfix/local[13133]: 3933523D806F: to=<[email protected]>, orig_to=<[email protected]>, relay=local, delay=0.15, delays=0.03/0.01/0/0.11, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered to command: /usr/bin/procmail -f-) Jan 5 17:46:18 myserver postfix/qmgr[32701]: 3933523D806F: removed But when i set them off, email is not sent and I get: Code: Jan 5 17:54:56 myserver postfix/smtpd[14131]: connect from localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1] Jan 5 17:54:56 myserver postfix/smtpd[14131]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1]: 550 5.1.1 <[email protected]>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table; from=<[email protected]> to=<[email protected]> proto=SMTP helo=<UebiMiau> Jan 5 17:54:56 myserver postfix/smtpd[14131]: lost connection after RCPT from localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1] Jan 5 17:54:56 myserver postfix/smtpd[14131]: disconnect from localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1] Can you understand what happens?

Please select "External Mailserver" for www.mysite.com (it's on the Options tab of that web site in ISPConfig) and also for the Co-Domain mysite.com (go to Co-Domains, select that domain, and then go to the Options tab of that Co-Domain and select "External Mailserver").
