I thought I'd be clever and rebuild my mail server(formerly Debian Sarge) and install Debian Etch(using the Perfect guide). The server is chugging along happily, but postfix is not allowing email in to my users. I set up Maildirs and can receive local email, but outside emails to my [email protected] are blocked. The message is relay access denied. I should know how to fix this, but several hours of lurking through the forum archive later, I must admit that I could use some expert advice. Sending email from my pop3 client is working properly. Here is my postconf -n output: alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases append_dot_mydomain = no biff = no broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes config_directory = /etc/postfix home_mailbox = Maildir/ inet_interfaces = all inet_protocols = all mailbox_command = mailbox_size_limit = 0 mydestination = brat01.brat.com, localhost.brat.com, localhost.localdomain, localhost myhostname = brat01.brat.com mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8 myorigin = /etc/mailname recipient_delimiter = + relayhost = smtp_tls_note_starttls_offer = yes smtp_tls_session_cache_database = btree:${queue_directory}/smtp_scache smtp_use_tls = yes smtpd_banner = $myhostname ESMTP $mail_name (Debian/GNU) smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated,permit_mynetworks,reject_unauth_destination smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes smtpd_sasl_local_domain = smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous smtpd_tls_CAfile = /etc/postfix/ssl/cacert.pem smtpd_tls_auth_only = no smtpd_tls_cert_file = /etc/postfix/ssl/smtpd.crt smtpd_tls_key_file = /etc/postfix/ssl/smtpd.key smtpd_tls_loglevel = 1 smtpd_tls_received_header = yes smtpd_tls_session_cache_database = btree:${queue_directory}/smtpd_scache smtpd_tls_session_cache_timeout = 3600s smtpd_use_tls = yes tls_random_source = dev:/dev/urandom Thank you in advance. Your forum is invaluable to the community.
I am not using ISPconfig. I had set it up under Sarge, but with a single domain to administer, I thought it was more than I needed. I find that if I add mydomain.com to my mydestination directive, then everything works. Is setting a virtual_maps directive a better technique? Thanks for the feedback.
