Doing the Sarge setup and I have this in my mail.log I'm guessing here: /etc/postfix/ contains smtpd.key and smtpd.crt is this a certificate error?
Which tutorial (URL) are you referring to? What's in /etc/postfix/main.cf (please strip out the comments)?
So you're referring to this tutorial? http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual_postfix_mysql_quota_courier Your main.cf looks pretty wrong. There are some lines that don't make sense, e.g. Code: smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, permit_sasl_authenticated, re$smtpd_tls_auth_only = no Code: virtual_alias_maps = proxy:mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_forwardings.cf, mys$virtual_mailbox_domains = proxy:mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_domains.cf Code: virtual_mailbox_limit_maps = proxy:mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_mailbox_lim$virtual_mailbox_limit_override = yes virtual_maildir_limit_message = "The user you are trying to reach is over quota$virtual_overquota_bounce = yes proxy_read_maps = $local_recipient_maps $mydestination $virtual_alias_maps $vir$content_filter = amavis:[127.0.0.1]:10024 Please run the postconf commands from http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual_postfix_mysql_quota_courier_p2 again.
Sorry a massive dump of snow and five day power outage made the secondary mailserver setup low priority... Cut&paste from nano mucked up some of the lines I posted. I went through all this comparing everything to an identical machine we do have working. Everything I previously had trouble with appears to be fine, but I am still not up and running. 1) I setup 1 domain and 1 user to test the machine. Using squirrelmail, I get an incorrect login error. That is confirmed by the mail.log entry, so I appear to have a problem with authentication. I'm a relative newbie, so how do I tell if the problem is with sasl or with mysql? 2) I also noted that when you create the domain & user in phpmyadmin, it doesn't setup an entry in /home/vmail/domainname or home/vmail/domainname/username. On the other machine, if you create a new user with phpmyadmin and send them an e-mail from another user on the system, it creates their mailbox entry. How do I get started for the first user & domain?
Please post the error messages here. The directories are created when the first mail for that user arrives.
Here is the mail.log Here is the auth.log, it didn't even record an event, but I don't know if it's supposed to.... Here is mail.err
Nothing unusual here. Are you sure the username (must be an email address) and password are correct? Also compare your configuration files with those from this tutorial: http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual_postfix_mysql_quota_courier
Everything appears to be correct, if you send an email to a user built in phpymyadmin, domain, user and Maildir are created. You can read the mail in the Maildir/new folder. The only problem is that the users can't login. Here is a login from a working server: Here is an attempt from the box I'm setting up: No username was recorded. Does this help?
Please double-check the format of /etc/courier/authmysqlrc (whitespace, tabs, etc.). Courier is very finicky about this. It should look like the one in the tutorial.
