Greetings All,So I have been on SLLUG, PLUG, and the Ubuntu Utah lists for quite awhile under different addresses, but have not posted a questions yet, some responses, but no questions. I have enjoyed learning with everyone's posts but finally find myself needing help that I cannot resolve with Google's help alone, hopefully someone here can help.
On the main domain I host I use Google Apps for email only rather than have to administer a mail server a deal with spam issues, relays, etc.. The problem I am running into is that I need the local mail generated by localhost to be relayed/forwarded to my Google Apps account. My MX records are pointed toward Google's mail servers, while my domains A record is are pointed to the physical server via ZoneEdit. The longer the server is around and the more projects I work on the more I have realized I need that local mail to be delivered to my normal email for debugging of applications, logwatch, etc...
I was trying to use Postfix following several similar users' issues online. (Relaying local mail to Gmail/Google Apps using Postfix). Some of the tutorials I have tested are; The Prancing Tarantula (http://prantran.blogspot.com/2007/01/getting-postfix-to-work-on-ubuntu-with.html ), Setting up Postfix to relay through Gmail (http://www.darryl.cain.com.au/postfix/ ), and How to relay mail using Ubuntu, Postfix, and Gmail (http://kirranet.co.nz/content/howto-relay-email-using-ubuntu,-postfix-and-gmail ). None have worked.
I can get Postfix to say the message was sent, yet it never leaves the local mailbox, and it is nowhere to be found. From the tutorials I have learned there is an issue with Google and TLS so a certificate needs to be created. A simple relay will not work. So my problem still stands, i cannot get local mail relayed/forwarded. Does anyone have any ideas how I can relay local mail delivered to, say root, to my Google Apps account? Anyone?
