  1. (9:16:16 AM) The topic for #postfix is: The Postfix MTA || See !debug and provide a pastebin URL of relevant logs and "postconf -n" output before asking questions / check your logs / know your unix basics || On using IRC: http://workaround.org/getting-help-on-irc || Bot info: http://workaround.org/f=postfix || Channel log: http://echelog.matzon.dk/?postfix
  2. (9:16:40 AM) cesurasean: hey guys. i keep getting spam emails with virus attached. how do i stop this with postfix, or dovecot?
  3. (9:17:35 AM) gabWNT: rob0 I am just curious because I migrated from an old version of postfix to the latest stable release
  4. (9:17:36 AM) lunaphyte_: contact the sender and request that they not send those messages
  5. (9:17:39 AM) gabWNT: and was wondering if I needed it
  6. (9:17:56 AM) gabWNT: hahahaha lunaphyte  :)
  7. (9:18:04 AM) rob0: reject_unauth_destination is the replacement
  8. (9:18:21 AM) rob0: and that does exactly what it sounds like it does
  9. (9:18:22 AM) gabWNT: thanks rob0 !
  10. (9:18:33 AM) gabWNT: one more thing
  11. (9:18:50 AM) gabWNT: whenever I recieve emails for inactive or mailboxes that no longer exist they are getting stacked in the server's queue
  12. (9:18:53 AM) gabWNT:                  (temporary failure. Command output: lda: Fatal: Unknown user)
  13. (9:18:59 AM) gabWNT: is this error postfix related or dovecot?
  14. (9:20:06 AM) hever [~hever@85-222-28-130.home.aster.pl] entered the room.
  15. (9:22:38 AM) rob0: lda? I don't know what that is, but as it says, "Command output:" ... if you are running an external command, you probably want to use something that works.

  17. (9:22:47 AM) gabWNT: lda is a protocol in dovecot
  18. (9:23:05 AM) gabWNT: ok ty
  19. (9:23:31 AM) rob0: This then suggests that Dovecot cannot verify that the user exists.
  20. (9:25:56 AM) gabWNT: ty!!

When I try to send large files to these boxes it seems that the same file size restrictions are set. I get the error "queue file size limit exceeded". Is there any way to set file size limits only on mailboxes with local storage?

  45. (10:15:23 AM) rob0: If you want a different queue file size for some addresses, those will need to be handled by a different instance. Might not be possible, probably not if they are the same @domain.

  87. (11:46:10 AM) codin: wdp, would you need more info ?
  88. (11:47:02 AM) rob0: Email user names are case-insensitive. Something else you have introduced, about which we could not begin to guess, has changed this.
  89. (11:47:05 AM) wdp: codin, without knowing your setup it's difficult to tell, why it is _not_ case-insensitive. That worked out-of-the-box here.

  234. (5:01:18 PM) roman___: i just configured my first postfix using sasl (against pam) and most things already work fine. The last problem still existing is that anyone@mydomain is also allowed to send as anythingelse@mydomain... is there a way to restrict this?

  239. (5:10:01 PM) thumbs: roman___: why do you think sender verification matters?
  240. (5:10:13 PM) thumbs: roman___: you can craft the from: header from any mua.
  241. (5:10:46 PM) roman___: yes, but the mailserver shouldn't allow the user to do so... so anyone receiving mails from my mailserver can see, that the mail was really sent by this user
  242. (5:11:13 PM) thumbs: roman___: also, from: is not the same as the return path.

  246. (5:11:49 PM) dead: how do I run the actual "master" process with -v or -D?

  248. (5:13:21 PM) roman___: reject_authenticated_sender_login_mismatch <--- looks like this is what i'm looking for
  249. (5:13:23 PM) thumbs: roman___: what kind of volume does your server push?
  250. (5:14:36 PM) roman___: not much
  251. (5:14:44 PM) roman___: about 300 users, but really low-traffic
  252. (5:15:24 PM) roman___: and reject_authenticated_sender_login_mismatch works! :)
  253. (5:15:30 PM) thumbs: roman___: so normal email traffic for 300 users, per day? It should scale.
  254. (5:16:45 PM) roman___: yes i think so

  407. (9:32:59 PM) pj: you did not put spaces in front of (what used to be) line 99, you need space at the beginning of the user= line
  408. (9:33:41 PM) pj: cesurasean: you do not understand because you have not read the docs, specifcally the master(5) man page which I told you to read.
  409. (9:33:53 PM) pj: so go read that before you try to tell me that you don't understand again.
  410. (9:36:16 PM) Patrickdk: pj, get with the times, reading is overrated these days
  411. (9:36:27 PM) pj: Patrickdk: no kidding, sheesh
  412. (9:36:38 PM) cesurasean: cool
  413. (9:36:41 PM) cesurasean: it works now.
  414. (9:36:46 PM) cesurasean: i think i understand
  415. (9:36:50 PM) cesurasean: that was all 1 command, right?
  416. (9:36:56 PM) pj: cesurasean: yes
  417. (9:36:58 PM) cesurasean: i thought it was 3 different ones. :>
  418. (9:37:10 PM) Patrickdk: line starts with space means, continue previous line
  419. (9:37:17 PM) cesurasean: ok, now how to i get amavisd, and clamav to work alongside postfix, and spamassassin?
  420. (9:37:34 PM) Patrickdk: you want to use amavisd?
  421. (9:37:35 PM) pj: cesurasean: by reading docs, heh
  422. (9:37:38 PM) cesurasean: are those separate from what im doing? or does postfix need other configs?
  423. (9:37:44 PM) Patrickdk: everything you did is pretty useless then
  424. (9:37:49 PM) Patrickdk: cause amavis replaces it all
  425. (9:38:11 PM) cesurasean: so amavis and spamassassin are the same thing?
  426. (9:38:14 PM) Patrickdk: you spamass config should go away
  427. (9:38:19 PM) Patrickdk: and be replaced with amavis configs
  428. (9:38:27 PM) Patrickdk: no
  429. (9:38:32 PM) Patrickdk: amavis wraps around spamass
  430. (9:38:44 PM) pj: amavis runs as a wrapper for spammassassin and clamav
  431. (9:38:45 PM) cesurasean: that's what i don't understand.
  432. (9:38:46 PM) Patrickdk: so why would you want to use spamass twice? once in amavis and once alone?
  433. (9:38:59 PM) cesurasean: ok
  434. (9:39:02 PM) cesurasean: so
  435. (9:39:14 PM) cesurasean: usiing amavisd, plus spamassassin won't work? or just useless?
  436. (9:39:29 PM) cesurasean: if so, how do i increase amavisd and clamav to find these virus i keep getting in email
  437. (9:39:35 PM) Patrickdk: defently a case of, why didn't you read the docs before hand?
  438. (9:39:51 PM) cesurasean: because I'm not much of a reader. I have to play with things to udnerstand them.
  439. (9:40:08 PM) Patrickdk: it could take you years to setup an email server than
  440. (9:40:18 PM) cesurasean: i already have one setup.
  441. (9:40:29 PM) cesurasean: i just need to make it stop processing CRAP spam and virus
  442. (9:40:31 PM) jimpop: cesurasean: are you running freshclam?
  443. (9:40:39 PM) jimpop: and sa-update?
  444. (9:40:45 PM) cesurasean: jimpop, how do i check to see if im running freshclam?
  445. (9:40:49 PM) jimpop: ps -ef
  446. (9:40:50 PM) cesurasean: what is sa-update?
  447. (9:40:56 PM) Patrickdk: hell, what version of clamav? :)
  448. (9:40:59 PM) jimpop: spamassassin update
  449. (9:41:09 PM) ***Patrickdk wonders how many people are still running .94 and .95
  450. (9:41:32 PM) Patrickdk: what spamass version?
  451. (9:41:35 PM) cesurasean: yes, /usr/bin/freshclam -d --quiet
  452. (9:41:48 PM) ***jimpop wonders how many people are still running mailservers when they shouldn't be
  453. (9:41:55 PM) cesurasean: how do i check spamassassin version?
  454. (9:41:55 PM) pj: cesurasean: go to the amavisd-new website and read up on what amavisd-new is for.
  455. (9:42:06 PM) Patrickdk: spamassassin --version?
  456. (9:42:08 PM) pj: and stop telling me you're afraid of reading, you won't get very far that way.
  457. (9:42:36 PM) cesurasean: so, should i remove everything ive done to install spamassassin?
  458. (9:42:42 PM) cesurasean: or just leave what i got?
  459. (9:42:55 PM) pj: cesurasean: I bet if you go and read up on the amavisd docs you'
  460. (9:42:57 PM) cesurasean: SpamAssassin version 3.3.1
  461. (9:43:03 PM) pj: you'll be able to answer that question yourself
  462. (9:43:12 PM) Patrickdk: oh, atleast spamass is current enough
  463. (9:43:12 PM) cesurasean: pj, can you please help me?
  464. (9:43:18 PM) cesurasean: ive read the docs before
  465. (9:43:24 PM) cesurasean: i just don't understand this as well as you do, buddy.
  466. (9:43:26 PM) Patrickdk: clamscan -V
  467. (9:43:28 PM) cesurasean: that's why i come here to ask you.
  468. (9:43:36 PM) jimpop: cesurasean: dump amavis and use postfix with spamass-milter and clamav-milter
  469. (9:43:49 PM) Patrickdk: amavisd-new has very good documentation on how to set it up with postfix, step by step
  470. (9:44:00 PM) cesurasean: I've already setup amavid with postfix!
  471. (9:44:08 PM) cesurasean: i was adding spamassassin to my machine
  472. (9:44:24 PM) jimpop: cesurasean: don't use amdavisd.... if you want to use amavis, then use amavis-new!!!!!!!!!
  473. (9:44:32 PM) cesurasean: i assume i had clamav working with amavis, but no spamassassin?
  474. (9:44:41 PM) cesurasean: I'm using amavis-new
  475. (9:44:45 PM) cesurasean: it sucks.
  476. (9:44:47 PM) pj: cesurasean: you just said that you didn't read the docs.  I don't have a problem helping people who are willing to take the time to read and understand docs.
  477. (9:44:59 PM) Patrickdk: oh, so your issue is purely, you have no idea how to use amavisd/spamass/clamav configs
  478. (9:45:05 PM) cesurasean: pj, I do. I need more clarification than GO READ THE DOCS.
  479. (9:45:18 PM) cesurasean: Patrickdk, perhaps.
  480. (9:45:27 PM) Patrickdk: well, we can't help you with that
  481. (9:45:30 PM) Patrickdk: this is #postfix
  482. (9:45:30 PM) jimpop: cesurasean: you really do need to read the docs, or at least understand how to use them
  483. (9:45:31 PM) cesurasean: ok, first question
  484. (9:45:35 PM) Patrickdk: not #howtostopspam
  485. (9:45:37 PM) cesurasean: do i need to uninstall spamassassin?
  486. (9:45:48 PM) cesurasean: or is this just a matter of config right?
  487. (9:45:58 PM) Patrickdk: you need to read the amavis docs mainly, then spamass docs
  488. (9:46:00 PM) pj: cesurasean: you still need spamassassin
  489. (9:46:11 PM) pj: it just gets called from amavisd, not from postfix directly.
  490. (9:46:19 PM) Patrickdk: you probably need to configure amavis correctly, for whatever it is you want it to do
  491. (9:46:20 PM) cesurasean: ok, and how does the email travel? amavis-new, spamassassin, then clamav checks it?
  492. (9:46:22 PM) cesurasean: which order?
  493. (9:46:31 PM) Patrickdk: there is no order
  494. (9:46:37 PM) Patrickdk: therefor you don't understand amavis at all
  495. (9:46:44 PM) jimpop: cesurasean: order depends on how you config'ed it to work
  496. (9:46:48 PM) cesurasean: what do you mean there is no order?
  497. (9:46:51 PM) cesurasean: AH
  498. (9:46:55 PM) cesurasean: jimpop, thanks
  499. (9:46:57 PM) jimpop: cesurasean: how did you configure it to work?
  500. (9:46:59 PM) cesurasean: now i udnerstand.
  501. (9:47:03 PM) cesurasean: I don't know!
  502. (9:47:04 PM) pj: cesurasean: it works like this, postfix sends the emails to amavisd, and amavisd runs them through spamassassin and clamav and whatever else you tell it to do then passes the emails back to postfix.
  503. (9:47:05 PM) jimpop: !tell cesurasean welcome

  506. (9:47:14 PM) jimpop: !tell cesurasean goal

  510. (9:47:35 PM) Patrickdk: goal: stop spam
  511. (9:47:45 PM) cesurasean: my goal is to stop so much spam from hitting my box, mainly virus being sent to me DAILY like 50 times
  512. (9:47:48 PM) pj: jimpop: and when I say amavisd I mean amavisd-new, I just don't want to type it all out every time, heh
  513. (9:47:48 PM) Patrickdk: solution: hire a team of spam fiting ninja's for 24/7 protection
  514. (9:47:56 PM) cesurasean: LOL
  515. (9:48:04 PM) cesurasean: ninjas?
  516. (9:48:06 PM) cesurasean: or monkies?
  517. (9:48:07 PM) jimpop: pj: gotcha
  518. (9:48:13 PM) cesurasean: monkeys
  519. (9:48:24 PM) Patrickdk: cesurasean, you get what you pay for, monkeys are cheap, but not good
  520. (9:48:49 PM) cesurasean: is there a way to make clamav pick up on these virus?
  521. (9:48:58 PM) cesurasean: instead of my workstation's virus having to detect them
  522. (9:49:14 PM) Patrickdk: clamscan -V?
  523. (9:49:16 PM) jimpop: cesurasean: sure. integrate clamav with postfix or via amavis
  524. (9:49:28 PM) cesurasean: ClamAV 0.97/13754/Wed Oct  5 17:04:21 2011
  525. (9:49:40 PM) cesurasean: I think clam is setup already.
  526. (9:49:47 PM) jimpop: cesurasean: PROVE that you have things integrated correctly between amavis/postfix/clamav/spamassassin
  527. (9:49:47 PM) cesurasean: I'm going to remove this crap I did with spamassassin.
  528. (9:49:57 PM) cesurasean: what configs do you need to see of mine, to help me figure this out?
  529. (9:50:05 PM) jimpop: !tell cesurasean welcome

  531. (9:50:08 PM) cesurasean: how do i prove that?
  532. (9:50:08 PM) Patrickdk: somehow I don't think you have amavis sending anything to clamav/spamass
  533. (9:50:28 PM) cesurasean: Patrickdk, how do i check?
  534. (9:50:31 PM) jimpop: cesurasean: did you read /topic
  535. (9:50:38 PM) Patrickdk: currently, I don't see how you are sending anything to amavis at all

  538. (9:50:48 PM) Patrickdk: postconf -n would help
  539. (9:51:17 PM) jimpop: ps -ef too
  540. (9:51:52 PM) cesurasean: so, does it only look like i have spamass installed, and amavis, but just not using them?
  541. (9:51:52 PM) Patrickdk: rm -...... would also :)
  542. (9:52:03 PM) jimpop: lol
  543. (9:52:06 PM) cesurasean: postfix needs to pass emails to amavis to handle, right?
  544. (9:52:11 PM) Patrickdk: cesurasean, how should we know? I can't see inside your server
  545. (9:52:19 PM) cesurasean: and amavis does spamass and clamv on its own?
  546. (9:52:46 PM) Patrickdk: this is why reading atlead the amavis home page would help
  547. (9:53:10 PM) cesurasean: where inside postfix config do i setup amavis?
  548. (9:53:13 PM) cesurasean: i thought i had done this?!
  549. (9:53:21 PM) Patrickdk: holy crap, the first paragraph on the home page says it all :)
  550. (9:53:42 PM) cesurasean: i have this line. 127.0.0.1:10025 inet n - - - - smtpd
  551. (9:53:46 PM) cesurasean: isn't that amavis?
  552. (9:53:47 PM) Patrickdk: I see amavis setup in your postfix config, but I see no where that you told postfix to use it
  553. (9:54:00 PM) cesurasean: lol
  554. (9:54:01 PM) Patrickdk: that is defently not amavis
  555. (9:54:12 PM) jimpop: cesurasean: what OS are you running?
  556. (9:54:15 PM) cesurasean: what part do i have amavis setup in my postfix config? which line?
  557. (9:54:19 PM) cesurasean: Debain Squeeze
  558. (9:54:31 PM) jimpop: cesurasean: ok, i will google some help for you...
  559. (9:54:51 PM) cesurasean: so i guess i havent been using the spamassassin and clamav like i thought i was?
  560. (9:55:12 PM) jimpop: cesurasean: this will help you get started  http://www.fatofthelan.com/technical/how-to-install-postfix-amavis-clamav-and-spamassassin-on-debian-linux/
  561. (9:55:24 PM) pj: oh, look at this, I just went to the amavisd homepage, clicked on "Documentation" and then clicked on "README.postfix" and guess what I found?
  562. (9:55:24 PM) jimpop: cesurasean: come back when you have that working and need some help
  563. (9:56:13 PM) Patrickdk: pj, yourself?
  564. (9:56:27 PM) pj: lol, close Patrickdk
  565. (9:56:39 PM) pj: but wow, it was just, like, sooooooo hard to find those links
  566. (9:57:03 PM) pj: and what could I possibly do with an official amavisd doc that tells me exactly how to setup and integrate amavisd with postfix?
  567. (9:57:06 PM) pj: I wonder ...
  568. (9:57:12 PM) jimpop: if only there was a global search engine.....
  569. (9:57:30 PM) seekwill: Maybe we should invent one
  570. (9:57:36 PM) Patrickdk: jimpop, there was one, but didn't excite die a long time ago? along with altavista?
  571. (9:57:56 PM) jimpop: yeah... too bad nothing replaced them.
  572. (9:58:01 PM) jimpop: one day....
  573. (9:58:11 PM) pj: why do we need to do that when we can just tell people the directions one-line-at-a-time in an irc channel every time they ask?
  574. (9:58:26 PM) jimpop: ha!
  575. (9:58:30 PM) Patrickdk: pj, I thought that was what little miss bot was for :)
  576. (9:58:35 PM) Patrickdk: !pj
  577. (9:58:35 PM) knoba: Patrickdk: Error: "pj" is not a valid command.
  578. (9:58:40 PM) pj: lol
  579. (9:58:43 PM) Patrickdk: heh
  580. (9:58:46 PM) cesurasean: where do you see README.postfix?
  581. (9:58:50 PM) Patrickdk: !rob0
  582. (9:58:50 PM) knoba: Patrickdk: "rob0" : a pathetic bot that reacts to newly joined users with reciting the !basic and !standard factoids
  583. (9:58:52 PM) Patrickdk: :)
  584. (9:59:06 PM) cesurasean: nevermind
  585. (10:00:39 PM) cesurasean: this is a lot of docs to read. which part explains how to set it up in postfix?
  586. (10:00:45 PM) cesurasean: i would imagine it's only 1 command to do this
  587. (10:01:17 PM) cesurasean: ok, it says for default do this; 127.0.0.1:10025 inet n    -       n       -       -     smtpd
  588. (10:01:26 PM) cesurasean: which is the same thing i told you guys i had, and you said wasn't part of amavis
  589. (10:01:27 PM) cesurasean: wtf?
  590. (10:01:31 PM) jimpop: cesurasean: yes, you are now on the right path
  591. (10:01:42 PM) cesurasean: (9:53:42 PM) cesurasean: i have this line. 127.0.0.1:10025 inet n - - - - smtpd
  592. (10:01:42 PM) cesurasean: (9:53:46 PM) cesurasean: isn't that amavis?
  593. (10:01:46 PM) Patrickdk: that isn't amavis
  594. (10:02:08 PM) Patrickdk: that is a normal smtp port (well, plain vanilla smtp receipt port)
  595. (10:02:09 PM) cesurasean: it's the same line of code amavis website has?
  596. (10:02:14 PM) Patrickdk: yep
  597. (10:02:21 PM) cesurasean: umm
  598. (10:02:21 PM) Patrickdk: cause amavis needs it to put email back into postfix
  599. (10:02:30 PM) cesurasean: oh
  600. (10:02:37 PM) cesurasean: so it's part of the config, but not amavis itself
  601. (10:02:39 PM) Patrickdk: but it doesn't help get email TO amavis
  602. (10:02:46 PM) cesurasean: ah
  603. (10:02:50 PM) cesurasean: i need a -o, right?
  604. (10:02:55 PM) pj: cesurasean: that is a special smtpd port you set up on postfix that amavis will use to re-inject the emails after it scans them.
  605. (10:02:57 PM) cesurasean: like i had for spamass?
  606. (10:03:48 PM) ***jimpop points out that THIS is why he dumped amavis and switched to milters.  SOOO much easier.
  607. (10:03:54 PM) cesurasean: is this what i need? amavisfeed unix    -       -       n       -       2     smtp
  608. (10:04:13 PM) cesurasean: is that where it tells postfix to send to amavis?
  609. (10:04:21 PM) pj: cesurasean: yes
  610. (10:04:30 PM) cesurasean: ah.
  611. (10:04:33 PM) cesurasean: i see.
  612. (10:04:43 PM) Patrickdk: jimpop, I never liked milters
  613. (10:04:50 PM) cesurasean: how do i know it's working once ive done it?
  614. (10:04:56 PM) pj: you need to follow those directions and then ask us if you have problems.
  615. (10:05:01 PM) Patrickdk: used craploads of milters on sendmail, don't want to use them ever again
  616. (10:05:02 PM) cesurasean: or, how do i know whats actually taking place if spamass or clamav are working?
  617. (10:05:09 PM) pj: !tell cesurasean gtube

  622. (10:05:42 PM) pj: cesurasean: also amavisd does log, so you can see in your logs
  623. (10:05:50 PM) cesurasean: ah. i see.
  624. (10:06:10 PM) Patrickdk: pj, great, now he will turn on verbose logs
  625. (10:06:16 PM) pj: lol
  626. (10:06:23 PM) pj: don't turn on verbose logs!
  627. (10:06:24 PM) thumbs: Patrickdk: oh, you ruined it.
  628. (10:06:26 PM) cesurasean: no i won't.
  629. (10:06:34 PM) cesurasean: thumbs, go away.
  630. (10:06:39 PM) cesurasean: people were helping me. :D
  631. (10:07:00 PM) ***Patrickdk is attempting to fill out his timesheet
  632. (10:07:03 PM) cesurasean: and, they did a pretty damn good job without you here.
  633. (10:07:06 PM) Patrickdk: anything is better than that :)
  634. (10:07:36 PM) thumbs: cesurasean: careful not to alienate them.
  635. (10:07:45 PM) cesurasean: LOL
  636. (10:08:04 PM) cesurasean: I don't understand the meaning of alienate. :)

  641. (10:08:54 PM) cesurasean: Worry too much about what other people think, and you won't go far in life.

  643. (10:09:36 PM) cesurasean: true.
  644. (10:10:02 PM) cesurasean: gotta find happy mediums, I suppose.
  645. (10:12:18 PM) cesurasean: here's a steve jobs quote for yall. - I’m  sorry, it’s true. Having children really changes your view on these  things. We’re born, we live for a brief instant, and we die. It’s been  happening for a long time. Technology is not changing it much — if at  all.
  646. (10:12:40 PM) cesurasean: funny he would say that.
  647. (10:14:08 PM) Patrickdk: only only worries about how pj sees me

  669. (10:51:54 PM) cesurasean: do i need to do code like i pasted to do fiiltering?
  670. (10:52:04 PM) cesurasean: just change the ip address around?
  671. (10:52:22 PM) pj: that depends, you can do it from your main.cf as well
  672. (10:52:51 PM) cesurasean: or do i just put -o content_filter=amavisfeed:[127.0.0.1]:10024     -o receive_override_options=no_address_mappings on my first line?
  673. (10:52:52 PM) pj: you understand what main.cf and master.cf are for and the difference between putting config directives in one vs the other, right?
  674. (10:53:03 PM) cesurasean: no.
  675. (10:53:20 PM) cesurasean: oh, yes

  677. (10:53:30 PM) pj: well, you need to understand that, and how they work.
  678. (10:53:37 PM) pj: then you can probably answer that question yourself.
  679. (10:53:46 PM) cesurasean: do i need to add this line to my config? - 192.168.1.100:25 inet n    -       n       -       -     smtpd     -o content_filter=amavisfeed:[127.0.0.1]:10024     -o receive_override_options=no_address_mappings
  680. (10:54:09 PM) cesurasean: or can i just copy the -o whatever to my first line?
  681. (10:54:21 PM) cesurasean: do i need to specify the ip address?
  682. (10:54:26 PM) seekwill: heh
