Outgoing mail issue...

[jp998scalix]

Hi There,
I have installed Scalix 9.4.2 on SUSE 9.3 Pro, my server is called suse.mdihawaii.com

Following the installation I am able to send and receive emails "internally", but I can't send them out of my domain...

Code: Select all

Unable to send mail to:
user@test.domain.com

I found several topic about this issue, including the following, but I wasn't able to solve the issue...
http://www.scalix.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=1043&highlight=send+mail

FYI, my /var/opt/scalix/sys/smtpd.cfg looks like this:

Code: Select all

 RELAY accept 127.0.0.1
RELAY accept .suse
RELAY accept Log_Reject ALL
RELAY accept 192.168.15.0/255.255.255.0


My /etc/hosts file conteins the following line:
[code] 192.168.15.10 suse.mdihawaii.com suse

Please note, during the installation of Scalix I wasn't able to find/install the following:
- himdal-lib
- which

Also, I am not able to recall the omoff/omon command to use for the smtpd. I get "omoff: command not found".

I hope its enouth info to hekp yo understand my problem.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Regards,
Jason

Hi Jason,

Please change your smtpd.cfg file so it reads something like:

Code: Select all

RELAY accept 127.0.0.1
RELAY accept suse.mdihawaii.com
RELAY accept Log_Reject ALL
RELAY accept 192.168.15.0/255.255.255.0

then stop and restart smtpd by typing:

Code: Select all

omoff -d0 smtpd
omon smtpd


Then try sending mail outbound again. BTW, there are man pages for the various Scalix commands, so you can just type "man omon" or "man omoff" to get usage information.

Thanks,
Rachel

Thanks Rachel, that was the issue.

Also, I found I have to launch the ./omoff command from the /opt/scalix/bin folder, I couldn't lauch it from anyware I was...

Kind regards,
Jason

Hi Jason,

It sounds like you're either not logging on as root or you're just typing "su root". In order to inherit roots environment you need to type "su - root". That will automatically put /opt/scalix/bin in your path.

Thanks,

That was exactly the case, logging as "su root"....

Thanks for your kind support.
