Hi i'm giovanni, i've a mailserver with postfix (relase 2001) and i've added an alias [email protected] that point to all the mailbox of my domain, so now i've a big problem, this alias is shooted by spammers and i want to restrict the policy and allows to use it only if the sender is logged on my domain. Well, i've find this official tutorial: /etc/postfix/main.cf: smtpd_recipient_restrictions = check_recipient_access hash:/etc/postfix/access /etc/postfix/access: [email protected]in permit_mynetworks,reject [email protected]name permit_mynetworks,reject -------- so i've applied it to my config. files: /etc/postfix/main.cf: smtpd_recipient_restrictions = check_recipient_access hash:/etc/postfix/access /etc/postfix/access: [email protected] permit_mynetworks,reject ------ so at the end i've given these command: postmap /etc/postfix/access postfix reload The result isn't good, when any mail client try to send an email the mail client software give a timeout and it's impossible to reach the addressee. When i clean up the access file and main.cf all returns like before...(the clients can send emails and everyone can send email at [email protected]) maybe with this tutorial i've cancelled part of the default configuration and therefore doesn't it work ? Thanks a lot
Any errors in your mail log? Did you run Code: postmap /etc/postfix/access ? Can you try this in your main.cf? Code: smtpd_recipient_restrictions = reject_invalid_hostname, reject_unauth_pipelining, permit_mynetworks, permit_sasl_authenticated, reject_unauth_destination, check_recipient_access hash:/etc/postfix/access, permit
yes i've run postmap /etc/postfix/access i'll try: smtpd_recipient_restrictions = reject_invalid_hostname, reject_unauth_pipelining, permit_mynetworks, permit_sasl_authenticated, reject_unauth_destination, check_recipient_access hash:/etc/postfix/access, permit but what does it means?
