Scalix Forums

For some reason my newly installed Scalix server is accepting email for invalid email addresses. We have a Barracuda Spam Filter that gets everything first then it forwards it on to the mail server after processing. Before it processes a messages it checks to see if the recipient is a valid user on the system. It seems to be letting anything through even if it not a real address on the system. Where should I look to get this fixed?

For all the domains you are receiving mail on, add them to /etc/mail/local-host-names and restart sendmail.

Thanks for the quick reply, that seems to have done the trick!

I seem to be having the same problem, and adding my domains to /etc/mail/local-host-names didn't seem to make any difference. The server will still accept mail to any address, including invalid address on my domain.

The problem was in the way I was testing the server. Seems to be working like I would expect.
