postfix/IMAP/POP/RoundCube/Webmail broken in ISPConfig

    I'm having two problems with postfix:
    - can't login or send using Apple Mail with either POP or IMAP, server responds but then rejects my password
    - Roundcube won't work, can't log in
    - when I send mail via ISPConfig webmail, gmail thinks it's spam and hotmail doesn't deliver it (presumably for the same reason)!
    - I've created one main domain with several Co-Domains in ISP Config, will I be able to create e-mail addresses [email protected] [email protected] with separate mailboxes for each one?

    I'd like to be able to log into my mail accounts with IMAP and POP, as well as use Roundcube for webmail.

    /etc/postfix/main.cf

    Code:
    smtpd_banner = $myhostname ESMTP $mail_name (Debian/GNU)
    biff = no
    
    # appending .domain is the MUA's job.
    append_dot_mydomain = no
    
    # Uncomment the next line to generate "delayed mail" warnings
    #delay_warning_time = 4h
    
    myhostname = localhost.localdomain
    alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
    alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
    myorigin = /etc/mailname
    mydestination = lemegalodon.net, sd-1494.dedibox.fr, vihinfo.net, papamamanbebe.net, localhost
    relayhost =
    mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8
    mailbox_command = procmail -a "$EXTENSION"
    mailbox_size_limit = 0
    recipient_delimiter = +
    inet_interfaces = all
    smtpd_sasl_local_domain = $,myhostname

    smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
    broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes

    smtpd_tls_auth_only = no
    smtp_use_tls = yes
    smtpd_use_tls = yes
    smtp_tls_note_starttls_offer = yes
    smtpd_tls_key_file = /etc/postfix/ssl/smtpd.key
    smtpd_tls_cert_file = /etc/postfix/ssl/smtpd.crt
    smtpd_tls_CAfile = /etc/postfix/ssl/cacert.pem
    smtpd_tls_loglevel = 1
    smtpd_tls_received_header = yes
    smtpd_tls_session_cache_timeout = 3600s
    tls_random_source = dev:/dev/urandom
    
    virtual_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtusertable
    
    mydestination = /etc/postfix/local-host-names
    #home_mailbox = Maildir/
    
    Here is the mail headers identified as spam by gmail:

    In mail.log, I'm having problems logging in with authentification (IMAP)
    Code:

    At this point I can log in via POP3:

    Code:

    Aug 26 22:29:10 localhost imaplogin: /usr/lib/courier/courier/imaplogin: No such file or directory
    Aug 26 22:29:12 localhost last message repeated 2 times
    
    I still cannot send mail or check mail via IMAP. Also, my host settings are obviously wrong (mail is going out as if it were from localhost.localdomain instead of the correct domain)...

    First, pop3 and IMAP have nothing to do with postfix.

    To your pop3 / imap problem:

    Did you follow one of the perfect setup howtos? It seems that you use courier imap together with ipop3d which is a bit strange combination.

    Is your server at home hosted on a dsl line?

    No. The mailboxes where created for all domains. If you need separate mailboxes you must create separate websites.

    I used a distrib of Debian pre-installed with ISPConfig. I did go back and try to do the perfect setup for mail, but it stalled when doing the authentifcation certificate, I think. I want to use a standard combination for POP/IMAP, not a strange one. What do I need to do at this point to achieve this?

    No, it's a dedicated server in a server farm.

    OK, that's what I thought. But if I create separate websites, can I have them all pointing to the same web directory? Can I set this up in ISPConfig or is this I have to do separately? Can ISPConfig work with such a configuration?

    Run:

    apt-get install courier-imap courier-imap-ssl courier-pop courier-pop-ssl

    postconf -e 'home_mailbox = Maildir/'
    postconf -e 'mailbox_command ='
    /etc/init.d/postfix restart

    No.

    either you use co-domains and have the email addresses for all domains or you use different websites with different directories.

    OK, done. I still can't log in or send e-mail via Apple Mail with IMAP.
    With this configuration, do I set my mail app to use SSL? If so, what kind of authentification is it using: Password, MD5 Challenge Response, Kerberos version 4, NTLM or Kerberos version 5? Is it the same authentification both for sending and receiving?

    If I want to use mbox files (to easily download mailbox files and import them into another app which can read the .mbox format), is this compatible with Roundcube and the Maildir/ option?

    Here is what's happening in mail.log

    Code:

    I tried sending an email from Roundcube, but the mail was rejected by at least one of my other mail servers, because the mail appeared to be coming from localhost.localname rather than from vihinfo.net. Here is the excerpt from mail.log, as well as another example of failed authentification.

    Received: from 88.191.14.190 (HELO localhost.localdomain) (88.191.14.190) by mrelay4-1.free.fr with SMTP; 27 Aug 2006 12:03:08 -0000

    Please change "$,myhostname" to "$myhostname" in your postfix main.cf file and restart postfix.

    Which username do you use for pop3 and imap. The username must have the form web[ID]_ when you do not disable the username prefix.

    IMAP

    IMAP now appears to work!

    I can now log in with IMAP if I use web6_info, but not with [email protected].

    How do I enable the username prefix so that I can use the e-mail address as the login? This is important because I know my users already have enough difficulty setting up their mail accounts!

    Also my SSL certificate is showing up as invalid because it's for localhost (or something like that). Anything I can do to fix that so that the certificate is relevant to the mail server name rather than localhost?

    Sending mail

    Now I get "Relay access denied" when trying to send mail from [email protected] using mail.vihinfo.net as the SMTP server. If I activate authentication (password) for sending mail, the server won't recognize my user id (I tried both web6_info and [email protected]) and rejects my password.

    Mail headers

    Shouldn't I be changing this line in main.cf? Right now I'm seeing the hostname (sd-1494.dedibox.fr) a lot in mail headers, when in fact I'd like to see the name of the relevant domain (vihinfo.net).

    Code:
    myhostname = localhost.localdomain

    This isn't possible because ISPConfig creates system users, not virtual users.

    Run the steps to create the mail certificate again from the appropriate "Perfect Setup" on HowtoForge.

    In your mail log you have this:

    Please check /etc/postfix/main.cf for typos (e.g. $,myhostname instead of $myhostname). Then run
    Code:
    newaliases
    to create a new /etc/aliases.db. Restart Postfix afterwards.

    Relay access denied

    That fixed the SSL bad certificate authentification problem.

    However, when I reinstalled postfix with this command, I was not asked the questions listed on this page:
    http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_debian_sarge_strato_p2

    Code:
    apt-get install postfix postfix-tls procmail libsasl2 sasl2-bin libsasl2-modules ipopd-ssl uw-imapd-ssl (all in one line!)
    
    Now I get: Relay access denied, and if I add password authentification, it rejects my password after accepting my web6_info user name.

    Code:

    Configuration problems have gotten worse with these last steps:
    now my IMAP account shows me my home directory, including cgi-bin, log, Maildir, phptemp, ssl, temp, user, and web folders!

    How do I correct this?!

    On my mail client (Apple Mail) there is an option for an "IMAP Path Prefix" but of course I'd much rather set this on the server side.

    Worse, I'm already being blacklisted so I cannot send messages to my server:

    Code:
    Aug 28 11:55:47 sd-1494 postfix/smtp[15871]: B2E0D10B092A: to=<>, relay=diwane.net[209.123.133.252], delay=1, status=bounced (host diwane.net[209.123.133.252] said: 550-Message rejected because sd-1494.dedibox.fr (localhost.localdomain) 550-[88.191.14.190] is blacklisted at sbl-xbl$

    Now test messages sent from both blacklisted and unblacklisted mail servers are not arriving in the inbox on my sd-1494.dedibox.fr server!

    For a normal user, or for a site admin? Did you change the IMAP configuration somehow?

    Please make sure your server is no open relay, and if you're sure, ask the blacklist maintainers to remove you from their blacklists.

    Can't authenticate SMTP server for outgoing mail

    I still cannot authenticate to send SMTP mail

    Code:
    # testsaslauthd -u web6_info -p ****
    connect() : No such file or directory
    
    I now get this mail.log when trying to send via SMTP

    Code:

    /etc/postfix/sasl/smtpd.conf

    Code:

    Code:
    # This needs to be uncommented before saslauthd will be run automatically
    START=yes
    
    PARAMS="-m /var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd -r"
    
    MECHANISMS="shadow"
    
    /etc/shadow and /etc/passwd both show information for web6_info, the account I'm trying to use to send via SMTP.
