Postfix Queue Problems (mail is stuck in queue)
Dear List, I am having problems with postfix where email gets stuck in the queue for no reason. Nothing has changed recently on the mail server and out of the blue postfix created this problem where emails will either be delivered just fine or they will end up in the queue and will not be delivered until manual action is taken. I have searched through the lists on the internet and tried several things including upgrading postfix to the latest version, run postfix flush, run postfix set-permissions etc but nothing seems to help. Even emails sent locally on the server end up in the queue and at this point I have no idea where to look anymore. I also do not see any specific errors in the maillog. a short version of mailq output: -Queue ID- --Size-- Arrival Time -Sender/Recipient--- 6C101C6BDB4*1334 Sat Jul 26 08:39:19 [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] AA769C6BD62*1313 Sat Jul 26 08:31:27 [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] B8EB9C6BDBD*1520 Sat Jul 26 08:36:21 [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] EA2A7B01772*2483 Sat Jul 26 08:21:51 [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] EC750C6BDC1*1062 Sat Jul 26 08:26:13 [EMAIL PROTECTED] papenburg.de [EMAIL PROTECTED] 55FBDC6BD79*3104 Sat Jul 26 08:22:51 [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] 37EB0B010C916365 Fri Jul 25 23:35:01 MAILER-DAEMON (connect to myfirstmail.com[68.178.232.100]:25: Operation timed out) [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- 234 Kbytes in 100 Requests. output of: postqueue -vi B8EB9C6BDBD postqueue -vi B8EB9C6BDBD postqueue: dict_eval: const mail postqueue: dict_eval: const ipv4 postqueue: name_mask: ipv4 postqueue: dict_eval: const mail.EXAMPLE2.com postqueue: dict_eval: const EXAMPLE2.com postqueue: dict_eval: const Postfix postqueue: dict_eval: const postfix postqueue: dict_eval: const postfix postqueue: dict_eval: const maildrop postqueue: dict_eval: expand $myhostname -> mail.EXAMPLE2.com postqueue: dict_eval: expand $mydomain -> EXAMPLE2.com postqueue: dict_eval: const postqueue: dict_eval: const /usr/local/libexec/postfix postqueue: dict_eval: const /var/db/postfix postqueue: dict_eval: const /usr/local/sbin postqueue: dict_eval: const /var/spool/postfix postqueue: dict_eval: const pid postqueue: dict_eval: const all postqueue: dict_eval: const postqueue: dict_eval: const double-bounce postqueue: dict_eval: const nobody postqueue: dict_eval: const hash:/etc/aliases postqueue: dict_eval: const 20080216 postqueue: dict_eval: const 2.5.1 postqueue: dict_eval: const hash postqueue: dict_eval: const deferred, defer postqueue: dict_eval: const + postqueue: dict_eval: expand $mydestination -> mail.EXAMPLE2.com postqueue: dict_eval: expand $relay_domains -> mail.EXAMPLE2.com postqueue: dict_eval: const TZ MAIL_CONFIG LANG postqueue: dict_eval: const MAIL_CONFIG MAIL_DEBUG MAIL_LOGTAG TZ XAUTHORITY DISPLAY LANG=C postqueue: dict_eval: const host postqueue: dict_eval: const postqueue: dict_eval: const += postqueue: dict_eval: const -=+ postqueue: dict_eval: const debug_peer_list,fast_flush_domains,mynetworks,permit_mx_backup_networks,qmqpd_authorized_clients,relay_domains,smtpd_access_maps postqueue: dict_eval: const postqueue: dict_eval: const bounce postqueue: dict_eval: const cleanup postqueue: dict_eval: const defer postqueue: dict_eval: const pickup postqueue: dict_eval: const qmgr postqueue: dict_eval: const rewrite postqueue: dict_eval: const showq postqueue: dict_eval: const error postqueue: dict_eval: const flush postqueue: dict_eval: const verify postqueue: dict_eval: const trace postqueue: dict_eval: const postqueue: dict_eval: const 2 postqueue: dict_eval: const 100s postqueue: dict_eval: const 100s postqueue: dict_eval: const 100s postqueue: dict_eval: const 100s postqueue: dict_eval: const 3600s postqueue: dict_eval: const 3600s postqueue: dict_eval: const 5s postqueue: dict_eval: const 5s postqueue: dict_eval: const 1000s postqueue: dict_eval: const 1000s postqueue: dict_eval: const 10s postqueue: dict_eval: const 10s postqueue: dict_eval: const 1s postqueue: dict_eval: const 1s postqueue: dict_eval: const 1s postqueue: dict_eval: const 1s postqueue: dict_eval: const 500s postqueue: dict_eval: const 500s postqueue: dict_eval: const 18000s postqueue: dict_eval: const 18000s postqueue: dict_eval: const 1s postqueue: dict_eval: const 1s postqueue: name_mask: host postqueue: inet_addr_local: configured 2 IPv4 addresses postqueue: been_here: LOCALIP/32: 0 postqueue: been_here: 127.0.0.1/32: 0 postqueue: mynetworks: LOCALIP/32 127.0.0.1/32 postqueue: dict_eval: const LOCALIP/32 127.0.0.1/32 postqueue: dict

ldap aliases
Hello list! I'm trying to move my aliases to ldap. It's somewhat working right now but I have a question. It seems that Postfix searches the database by the username part of the email account. For example if I send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note that bensa.ar doesn't exist on the internet) Postfix checks for "norberto" not "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" main.cf: alias_maps = hash:/etc/mail/aliases ldap:/etc/postfix/ldap-aliases.cf ldap-aliases.cf: bind= no server_host = ldap://127.0.0.1/ search_base = ou=users,dc=bensa,dc=ar scope = sub size_limit = 1 query_filter= (&(objectClass=inetLocalMailRecipient)(mail=%s)) result_attribute= mailLocalAddress $ ldapsearch -x 'uid=nbensa' mailLocalAddress mail dn: uid=nbensa,ou=users,dc=bensa,dc=ar mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailLocalAddress: [EMAIL PROTECTED] If I change query_filter to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" then it works, but then I loss the ability to do virtual domains. I'm sure I'm missing something, but I don't know what. Many thanks in advance, Norberto This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.

Processing $myhostname within an LDAP query
Hi all, For some time I have been successfully running a postfix install backed with LDAP, and this query works great: ldapvirtual_query_filter = (&(|(mail=%s)(mailAlternateAddress=%s))(mailHost=$myhostname)) I have recently installed postfix v2.5.1 (as provided by FC9), and went through the config to move the LDAP settings into individual files for the new configuration, so the query now looks like this: query_filter = (&(|(mail=%s)(mailAlternateAddress=%s))(mailHost=$myhostname)) This didn't work. Some digging revealed that the string $myhostname was being passed literally back to the LDAP server, instead of being parsed and turned into the machine name as before. Using postconf, I can confirm that the $myhostname does exist: myhostname = xx.xx.xx Has anyone else found this problem before?

Postfix figures out that the database lookup does not complete, it will NOT conclude that users don't exist. Instead it returns an error code and mail will be delivered later. However, if you use PAM underneath libc, then unfortunately the people who implemented PAM were not as careful, and they will claim that users don't exist, and mail will bounce. Wietse
