Re: smtpd aliases file issue

Just for the record using a flat "file" for aliases you don't need to run newaliases. ⁣Sent from BlueMail ​ On May 11, 2017, 2:30 AM, at 2:30 AM, Gilles Chehade wrote: >Much better :-) > >You don’t need to restart the daemon, you simply need to tell it >through smtpctl that the table aliases ne

Re: smtpd aliases file issue

Much better :-) You don’t need to restart the daemon, you simply need to tell it through smtpctl that the table aliases needs to be reloaded: $ doas smtpctl update table aliases Gilles > On 11 May 2017, at 08:17, Ajitabh Pandey wrote: > > Hi Gilles, > > I did not change anything fr

Re: smtpd aliases file issue

Obviously you don’t need to restart the daemon to pickup new aliases. If you are using a plain file aliases map it can be reloaded atomically at runtime using smtpctl. If you are using a db file, it can be rebuilt using the newaliases / makemap utility. I can’t tell you which one to use because

Re: smtpd aliases file issue

Hi Gilles, I did not change anything from the default. But I realise all may not be using default file like me and may not know what is in it. Here is a copy of the contents just for reference. The problem is solved by restarting the smtpd as sugested by Edgar. $ doas cat /etc/mail/smtpd.conf ta

Re: smtpd aliases file issue

Thanks Edgar. That worked. This is what I was missing. I actually removed my .forward from the user01 account now and directly updated the aliases file to forward email to external email address. Just for documentation purpose, here are the steps - $ doas vi /etc/mail/aliases file $ doas newalia

Re: smtpd aliases

Hi William, I would suggest trying these things first: - have you checked smtpd main page to Modify the current mailwrapper(8) settings? - stop smtpd and run it in foreground "smtpd -d -v", so all the info will go to stderr - try to exclude "dovecot" and check that smtpd can deliver messages

Re: smtpd aliases

Thanks Gilles, first for the help and second for the fantastic software. One last question - is there a way I can resend the mail stuck in the queue? I've tried smtpctl schedule all, but it doesn't seem to resolve the aliases, since it already passed through amavis. Gilles Chehade
