Postfix relay problem

ok now I have run into another problem with outgoing email. I'm trying to relay my outgoing email through my ISP email @ rogers.com but now I get this

Code:

Jun 25 11:11:21 gwi postfix/smtp[29061]: warning: valid_hostname: empty hostname
Jun 25 11:11:21 gwi postfix/smtp[29061]: warning: malformed domain name in resource data of MX record for smtp.broadband.rogers.com:

post your main.cf

 

Code:

myhostname = gwi.bounceme.net

You need to make this change

Code:

relayhost = [smtp.broadband.rogers.com]

 

thank top dog that worked. i followed the postfix relay howto, So maybe someone should add that into that howto.

 

ok now i have ran into this

Code:

Jun 26 11:58:52 gwi imapd: Connection, ip=[::ffff:127.0.0.1]

I noticed that [email protected] that shouldn't be there I don't recall putting in example in anywhere when installing

 

What's in /etc/mailname?

 

gwi.bounceme.net

 

Ok. What are the outputs of

Code:

hostname

and

Code:

hostname -f

?

 

the same gwi.bounceme.net

 

What are the outputs of

Code:

postconf -d | grep example.com

and

Code:

postconf -n | grep example.com

?

 

nothing came up for both.

 

Then I don't know why you see example.com in your log...

 

ok..... thanks for the help . I will try and figure it out.

 

Rogers Postfix Relay Problem

The postfix or for that matter sendmail relay mail problem can be caused by using Rogers ISP.

To send e-mail you now have to login your rogers.yahoo.com account and add any "From" addresses that will be sending through your connection.
The maximum is 10 minus your default Rogers account so in reality 9.

Go To http://rogers.yahoo.com
login to the website (your account)

Go To "Mail"
Go To "Options"
Under Management Go To "Mail Accounts"

Figure out what your relay is trying to send as
eg: "[email protected]" and add it.
