Hi all,
Since yesterday I am suddenly seeing quite a few lines like:
Dec 21 10:32:24 yips postfix/sendmail[3086]: fatal: www-data(33): No
recipient addresses found in message header
in my log. Is there any way I can determine which page/cron/something is
causing this?
The user sending mail is www-data. That means it is generated by apache.
Do you want apache scripts to be able to send mail ?
If not, look into the authorized_submit_users setting.
Well... It depends on _what_ www-data is trying to send, and to who... If
it's trying to inform me of errors, I would like it to send them, yes...
;-)
The error message suggests postfix is receiving a message header (albeit
without a recipient). How can I see the remainder of that message header?
The behaviour of the sendmail(1) binary is to take the recipient from
the message's To: header if no envelope recipient is given.
If both are missing, this fatal error is the result, and sendmail gives up.
Fix the process sending these mails to provide a valid envelope
recipient address.
(postfix will copy the envelope recipient to the headers when it
processes the mail).
Regards,
Evert
