Ok once again i am on this list asking probably a very trivial
questions. First off which is more correct 127.0.0.1 or localhost i am
thinking that 127.0.0.1 would be best on Freebsd 4.X but not sure. When
i installed dbmail i followed the instructions here.
http://www.helgrim.com/dbmaildocs/installation.html the relevant postfix
part is below this setup works for me.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
9.2 Postfix
In the master.cf file for postfix add the following:
dbmail unix - n n - - pipe flags=
user=dbmail:dbmail argv=/usr/local/sbin/dbmail-smtp -d ${recipient}
The user= field should be the username and groupname under which dbmail
runs - usually dbmail and dbmail
Next, for each domain you want to use Dbmail with, insert the following
into the /etc/postfix/transport file:
<example.com> dbmail:
Next run:
# postmap /etc/postfix/transport
Edit /etc/postfix/main.cf and add the following:
transport_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/transport
Finally, a postfix reload and if everything goes well mail should be
delivered to dbmail. If not, try running postfix with the -v option to
see what's going on. If the problem seems to be in dbmail, try changing
the tracelevel in dbmail.conf. Tracelevel 5 will return a lot of
debugging information.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Now I have tried several time to set things up according to the
installation docs but cannot get dbmail to work. these are in my master.cf
dbmail unix - n n - - pipe flags=
user=dbmail:dbmail argv=/usr/local/sbin/dbmail-smtp -d ${recipient} -r
${sender}
dbmail-lmtp unix - - n - - lmtp
#If you want verbose output in the mail log, add -v to lmtp, like this:
#dbmail-lmtp unix - - n - - lmtp -v
these are in my main.cf
canmail.org dbmail-smtp:localhost:24
graemehill.com dbmial-lmtp:localhost:24
these are in my main.cf
mailbox_transport = dbmail-lmtp:127.0.0.1:24
#try this
mailbox_transport = dbmail-smtp:127.0.0.1:24
local_recipient_maps = mysql:/usr/local/etc/postfix/sql-recipients.cf
#local_recipient_maps =
here is the contains of my sql-recipients.cf
user = dbmail
password = xxx
hosts = 127.0.0.1
dbname = dbmail
table = dbmail_aliases
select_field = alias
where_field = alias
I have tried all possible configurations but get different errors every
time this is the errors that go along with the current config where i
have both lmtp and smtp using 127.0.0.1 and the local_recipient_maps =
mysql:/usr/local/etc/postfix/sql-recipients.cf
