Scalix Forums

Hello

I´m testing Scalix and install it on a SUSE10 and it´s working, I can send and receive e-mails on my LAN and to and from internet.

If I set one outside LAN user to conect via Outlook Express or Thunderbird there are two problems:
1 - pop3 don´t get any message or any error
2 - if I send a message to a user@mydomain it´s ok; but if I send to user@world I receive this error message:

from server: '550 5.7.1 <user@world>... Relaying denied. IP name possibly forged [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]', Porta: 25, Secure (SSL): No, Erro : 550, Nº error: 0x800CCC79

How to fix that?

Best regards

It sounds like you have a firewall problem. Have0 you tried connecting to the POP (110) socket via telnet? What does it return? How about when you connect to the SMTP (25) socket?

Thanks,
Rachel

No, its not a firewall problem. I´m able to telnet both. Here the results:

+OK Scalix POP3 interface ready on: suse10.my.domain

I configure an account with this user in Outlook Express but can’t get those e-mails

About SMTP:

telnet my.domain 25
HELO my.domain
250 suse10.my.domain Hello 200-201-202-203.speedyterra.com.br [200.201.202.203] (may be forged), pleased to meet you
MAIL FROM: helio@my.domain
250 2.1.0 helio@my.domain... Sender ok
RCPT TO: perlman@terra.com.br
550 5.7.1 perlman@terra.com.br... Relaying denied. IP name possibly forged [200.201.202.203]

Relaying denied isn't a message that the SMTP Relay generates.

With Scalix, the error is "Denied due to spam list".

You didn't post the banner that you get when you telnet to port 25 so I'm suspecting that you are not connecting to the Scalix server when you submit the message.

I don´t include the banner because don´t see one. If I press enter as soon as I conect I receive:
554 suse10.pchelp.ath.cx ESMTP not accepting messages
500 5.5.1 Command unrecognized: ""

Hello
Some ideas to resolve my problem?

As I said, it doesn't look like you are talking to a Scalix server for message submission.

If you run the command: where hostname is the name of the host you have configured Outlook Express to submit messages to, what response do you immediately get back, i.e. the 220 line ?

Cheers

Dave

You are right:

220 suse10.pchelp.ath.cx ESMTP Sendmail 8.13.4/8.13.4/SuSE Linux 0.7; Wed, 22 Ma
r 2006 13:56:11 -0300

What do I need to do, so scalix is the server that respond to telnet?

And what about the pop3 ?

For sendmail, take a look at http://www.scalix.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=1790#8203

For POP3, if you think you deleted the user, chances are the SYSTEM directory entry that Scalix uses for routing is no longer present.

Given that this is a POP3 account, the quickest thing is to delete and re-add the user to ensure that the entry is correct.

I don´t have:

Code:
O DaemonPortOptions=Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA
O DaemonPortOptions=Port=smtp,Addr=xx.xx.xx.xx, Name=MTA

but I have:

Code:
O DaemonPortOptions= Name=MTA

may I change to
O DaemonPortOptions=Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA
?

I change to:

O DaemonPortOptions=Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA

and then try to telnet my host 25 - can not conect

How do I make scalix to listen on port 25 ?

You've told sendmail not to listen on the ethernet interfaces, but only on localhost (which is correct). You should be able to

telnet localhost 25

and get a response from sendmail.

To get Scalix's SMTP listener to work, try the following:

omsetsvc -a smtpd y
omoff -d0 -w smtpd
omon -w smtpd

Then telnet to your ethernet IP on port 25 and it should work. You can check the status with

omstat -a
