Thanks a bunch in advance!!
Relay access denied; from=<[email protected]> to=<[email protected]> You try to send a email to [email protected] from [email protected]. Is shaw.ca also a domain on the server? If not that is why you get the error Relay access denied. You can only send mail with an account that is on the server itself.
No [email protected] is not a domain on the server. Basically, I setup an email server with static IP and DNS is resolving fine. so if I send an email from any email account for that matter lets say gmail, it should come to my server correct? And based on the logs, seems like the email is getting routed to my server but getting rejected by my mail server. Am I missing something?
Maybe you can check your mailserver with the tools on dnsstuff.com. You can check an email address and see what is wrong with it. If you can post the errors here so I can have a look. Maybe I can help you more than.

Hi falko, Not sure what you mean by "You must enable "Server requires authentication." in your email client." The error I am getting is on the server side and am not to the point yet to view recieved emails through a email client. This error comes when some one sends an email to the email address on my mail server. Sending client may be any, I tried sending from gmail as well.
Hi vsharma, try to send an e-mail from your mailadress to another mailadress of your domain. example: [email protected] ---> [email protected] and see if "[email protected]" receive the mail.
Then make sure that the receiving domain is listed in mydestination in /etc/postfix/main.cf. This thread might help you as well: http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2
Problem with postfix virtual account setup I have setup postfix with virtual domain and accounts, but the incoming email to a virtual account is going to root Unix user. Does any onw know what could be wrong? message in maillog: Apr 9 18:56:44 jsh postfix/local[18962]: 8CE4DD09810: to=<[email protected]>, orig_to=<[email protected]>, relay=local, delay=0, status=sent (delivered to maildir) Also, I am seeing some warnings in maillog: Apr 9 18:56:44 jsh postfix/trivial-rewrite[18960]: warning: do not list domain mastilounge.com in BOTH mydestination and virtual_mailbox_domains Apr 9 18:56:44 jsh postfix/local[18962]: warning: dict_nis_init: NIS domain name not set - NIS lookups disabled Apr 9 18:56:44 jsh postfix/trivial-rewrite[18960]: warning: do not list domain mastilounge.com in BOTH mydestination and virtual_mailbox_domains Apr 9 18:56:44 jsh postfix/trivial-rewrite[18960]: warning: do not list domain mastilounge.com in BOTH mydestination and virtual_mailbox_domains Below are some configurations parameters from main.cf: #virtual_alias_domains = mastilounge.com #virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual virtual_mailbox_domains = /etc/postfix/vhosts.txt virtual_mailbox_base = /var/spool/vmail virtual_mailbox_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/vmaps.txt virtual_uid_maps = static:10011 virtual_gid_maps = static:10002 virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/valias.txt Any help will be greatly appriciated
If you use mastilounge.com for virtual mail accounts, you must not list that domain in mydestination in /etc/postfix/main.cf. Please remove it from mydestination and restart Postfix.
