SMTPD Rejecting Domain Relay

Postby severian » Fri May 18, 2007 10:51 am

Hello,

I've configured smtpd.cfg as follows below, but smtpd still doesn't relay from server host.domain.com. Reading the documentation, I was thinking that RELAY Accept .mydomain.com would've been sufficient. Do domain hosts have to authenticate somehow? If so, how do I set that up?

# NB Authenticated RELAYs are always allowed
RELAY Accept 127.0.0.1
RELAY Accept .mydomain.com
RELAY Accept host.domain.com
RELAY Accept 11.111.11.101
RELAY Log_Reject ALL
SUBMIT Log_Reject DNSBL,bl.spamcop.net,ALL
SUBMIT Log_Reject DNSBL,relays.ordb.org,ALL
SUBMIT Log_Reject DNSBL,clb.abuseat.org,ALL
SUBMIT Log_Reject DNSBL,sbl.spamhaus.org,ALL

Silly question: was SMTPd restarted?

omoff -d0 -w smtpd
omon smtpd

No, not a silly question.. I did do that. The log shows the following:

REPORT SMTP Relay (SMTPD Relay Pr) 05.18.07 10:42:28
[OM.DMON 2172] SMTP: Rejected connection from 11.111.11.101

The server that is sending the emails is a regular Fedora server running sendmail, and all it is doing is emailing reports. I used to have it relay to my Postfix server (pre-Scalix), which it did with no problem.

Ok, I removed the DNSBL entries, and now it will relay as long as users are within the domain.

How can I let my Scalix server relay from another sendmail server to recipients outside of the domain?

I'm going to keep my Postfix server and try to set it up as a bridgehead with Scalix, because none of the configurations in the Wiki seem to work for spam or DNSBL.
