Sorry I sent this from the wrong email address. VPS Ubuntu 20.04 postfix 3.4.13 and dovecot 2.3.7.2
I'm making progress but still not there. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm getting the errors: warning: SASL: Connect to private/auth failed: Connection refused fatal: no SASL authentication mechanisms I have a param in main.cf: smtpd_sasl_path = private/auth I do not have a folder /etc/postfix/private/auth I do have a folder /etc/postfix/auth but nothing is in it. How can I fix this error? -----Original Message----- From: owner-postfix-us...@postfix.org <mailto:owner-postfix-us...@postfix.org> <owner-postfix-us...@postfix.org <mailto:owner-postfix-us...@postfix.org> > On Behalf Of Wietse Venema Sent: Monday, December 6, 2021 11:04 AM To: Postfix users <postfix-users@postfix.org <mailto:postfix-users@postfix.org> > Subject: Re: virtual mailbox domains?? <mailto:post...@aecperformance.com> post...@aecperformance.com: > Command: sudo postfix status > postfix/postfix-script: the Postfix mail system is running: PID: 38284 Good. > I attempted to send an email to <mailto:smok...@sizzelicks.com> smok...@sizzelicks.com > < <mailto:smok...@sizzelicks.com> mailto:smok...@sizzelicks.com> . It bounced. What is the Postfix logging for this? Be sure to include more than only the delivery error (i.e. logging from pickup or smtpd; cleanup; qmgr; ...). This is the first problem that you need to fix. > In the log I see a few attempts to connect from spammers. I do not see > my laptop IP or anything at all about what I did. That is the second problem to fix. I suspect a firewalling or routing problem. Wietse
