Topic: Can't receive e-mail, greylisting disabled, MX records set properly.

Hello,

I installed iRedMail a while back on my Ubuntu server, and it worked fine.
However, I switched to Debian 6.0 not too long ago, and when I installed iRedMail I noticed that I couldn't receive e-mails anymore.

My MX records are set properly (I didn't change them, and they worked fine when running on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS).
I'm currently running Debian 6.0 with iRedMail 0.7.4, on a MySQL backend.

I can send e-mails just fine,
but whenever I try to send an e-mail to my server, after (half) a day I'll get a reply with 'undelivered mail returned to sender'.

I'm really hoping you can help me, and thank you in advance.

edit:
I should also add that I disabled greylisting.

Please, try to find out related log yourself, don't be lazy.

Just checked last 10 lines in your log file, it says:

Mar 22 13:07:46 ks384120 postfix/smtpd[16166]: warning: connect to 127.0.0.1:10031: Connection refused

That means you don't have Policyd running. Please start it and test again.

# /etc/init.d/postfix-policyd restart

Heh, sorry, I'm at my internship right now, and I'm doing all the commands through my phone, which is a pain in the bottom..

I'll restart the service and let you know if it fixed it.

edit:
I'm being a derp.

# /usr/sbin/postfix-policyd restart
starting policyd v1.82

Shameless bump, I still need help solving this issue..
Google hasn't helped me any further than I am right now.

Re: Can't receive e-mail, greylisting disabled, MX records set properly.

I had the same problem and I believe that it is now solved.  Here is what i did.

---I have a fresh install using the directions at this link:
http://www.howtoforge.com/iredmail-0.7. … an-squeeze

---I believe that policyd is turned off as it is commented out in /etc/postfix/main.cf
#
# Uncomment the following line to enable policyd sender throttle.
#
#smtpd_end_of_data_restrictions = check_policy_service inet:127.0.0.1:10032


---However when I look at the /var/log/mail.log:
Jun 30 12:23:25 mail postfix/smtpd[31140]: warning: connect to 127.0.0.1:10031: Connection refused
Jun 30 12:23:25 mail postfix/smtpd[31140]: warning: problem talking to server 127.0.0.1:10031: Connection refused

---Tried to reinstall policyd with no affect
apt-get --reinstall install postfix-policyd

---I have rremoved (database and all) and reinstalled policyd
apt-get remove postfix-policyd
apt-get install postfix-policyd

---Restart policyd
/etc/init.d/postfix-policyd restart
Restarting Postfix greylisting policy daemon: postfix-policyd.

This had no other output

---Restarted it directly and got the segmentation fault
/usr/sbin/postfix-policyd restart
starting policyd v1.82
Segmentation fault

---upgraded
apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade

---rebooted all the iRedMail processes
