Send error when receive is disabled.

    I would like to create a noreplay mail address. Therefore, the receiving of mails shall not be possible.

    If I deactivate receiving in a mail account, no more mails can be sent.

    The following error occurs when sending:
    SMTP Fehler (550): (5.1.0 <mail@...>: Sender address rejected: User unknown in virtual mailbox table).

    Is this a bug or am I misunderstanding something here?

    When disabling receiving, the mailbox is disabled for postfix as a whole. There have been several discussions on this confusing name and I believe that a change is on it's way, though I can't find more about it now.

    You can disable (local) delivering instead.

    Thank you for your reply. Okay, this is confusing.

    Unfortunately, when I select this option, I cannot send any mails either.

    Did you wait for the change to propagate? What is the error now?

    After 10 minutes, unfortunately, still identical.

    SMTP Fehler (550): (5.1.0 <mail@...>: Sender address rejected: User unknown in virtual mailbox table).

    If I take "Disable (local) delivering" out again, the sending works.

    Weird. Maybe @Jesse Norell can tell us more about this?

    This is correct; @Eichmeyer your second screenshot shows you have both settings checked, you need to uncheck the first one.

    I have tried that. Unfortunately, even here I get the same error.

    When updating ISPConfig, did you reconfigure services?

    If I specify 'Send copy to' (and set the check boxes like this), I can send mails.
    But I don't want any forwarding, so I don't enter any.

    The known issue in 3.2.2 was fixed but doesn't line up to what you say you're seeing. Do you have any conf-custom templates? (ie. files in /usr/local/ispconfig/server/conf-custom/install/)

    Did you, @Eichmeyer, state what operating system and what ISPConfig version you have?

    Send goes now. But unfortunately also the reception although disabled.
