Dear friends, I have recently changed my IP address to my VPS, since that moment the server was perfect and I used the perfect server setup for UBUNTU 9.04 guide. So i have ISPConfig3 installed on my machine: fantastic tool, really simplified my life. I have migrated to new IP, and everything seems to work fine, except the Postfix outgoing mail service. I have cheked and checked the configuration files, but I cannot find a result. Mail service works in localhost (between local addresses) but not for external mail addresses I attach some log that could be helpful netstat -tap | grep smtp telnet localhost 25 This is a part of the mail log mysql/my.cf Thank you so so much for you help and thanks for your incredible tool Alessandro
Make sure that your /etc/hosts file contains a line for the IPv6 localhost: ::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback or reconfigure postfix to use IPv4 only. Yes, thats the way you configured it with "bind-address = 127.0.0.1" as this allows postfix only to process local emails and not to receive any external emails. Run: dpkg-reconfigure postfix to reconfigure your postfix setup.
Thank you for you kind answer, this is my host file So it seems localhost with ipv6 was alredy configured. I corrected the bind-address for postfix, When I try to send mail i continue to have problems in postfix log this is my /etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_client.cf Do I have to add the ::1 host to hosts? Thank you again for your kind answer Alessandro
on the line seems like postfix is trying to connect to my old fqdn and ip address, how can I correct it? Thanks again
Check /etc/hosts and also your dns server and the hostname in postfix main.cf and the file /etc/hostname.
This is my etc/hosts It seems no problem here this is my ect/hostname and this is correct too and this is my postfix main.cf everything seems fine to me here too Any suggestion? Thank you
dear falko this is the output for both of them so it is still correct I think I must consider to try with a fresh setup Alessandro
