Ok i worked out my last mail was a sender verify issue although i dont know
why it was ive turned sender_voerify off for the time being.
my main issue is more serious :(
Ok i have MX records for domain pointing at one machine. that is meant to
accept mail, rewrite it for from anything@username@??? to
username@??? and pass it onto another mail server. This other mail
server then does the delivery and authentication etc with sendm ail and
procmail. The second server is ok. But this first server doesnt seem to
work. I get the error in rejectlog
2002-08-15 11:20:21 H=imailm1b.svr.pol.co.uk (imailm1.svr.pol.co.uk)
[xx.xx.xx.xx] F=somewhere@??? temporarily rejected RCPT
<anythin@???>: remote host address is the local host
Anyone have any ideas.
Unfortunalty i didntr set this up and the guy has gone on holiday as its all
meant to be going live. These are the things i have in the configure file
which are related.
domainlist local_domains = @
domainlist relay_to_domains = *.domains.com : domain.com
hostlist relay_from_hosts = 127.0.0.1
begin acl
acl_check_rcpt:
# Accept if the source is local SMTP (i.e. not over TCP/IP). We do this by
# testing for an empty sending host field.
accept hosts = :
# Deny if the local part contains @ or % or / or | or !. These are rarely
# found in genuine local parts, but are often tried by people looking to
# circumvent relaying restrictions.
deny local_parts = ^.*[@%!/|]
# Accept mail to postmaster in any local domain, regardless of the source,
# and without verifying the sender.
accept local_parts = postmaster
domains = +local_domains
# Deny unless the sender address can be verified.
require verify = sender
accept domains = +local_domains
endpass
message = unknown user
verify = recipient
# Accept if the address is in a domain for which we are relaying, but
again,
# only if the recipient can be verified.
accept domains = +relay_to_domains
endpass
message = unrouteable address
verify = recipient
accept hosts = +relay_from_hosts
accept authenticated = *
deny message = relay not permitted
Routers-
domain_route:
driver = manualroute
transport = remote_smtp
route_list = sagehost.co.uk mxhost.sagehost.co.uk
Rewrite-
begin rewrite
*@*.domain.com $2@??? E
