Topic: Sender address rejected

Hello,

We have freshly installed iRedMail with the following setup (replaced live details with the dummy values)
iRedMail server (192.168.1.15) => added a domain "example.com" and created 2 accounts which are: test@example.com, test100@example.com.
example.com => MX record pointed to postfix proxy server (server.mailproxy.com)
In postfix:
              test@example.com => pointed to iRedMail server
              test100@example.com => pointed to Exchange server

Configured all the basic settings in iRedMail and postfix. Present condition is:

Sending email from "test@example.com" (iRedMail account) delivers to internal and external email accounts. The account can also receives emails just fine.

Sending email from "test100@example.com" reaches to external email accounts, but not to test@example.com. But receiving is fine.

Getting the following bounce email when sending to test@example.com:

==
Delivery has failed to these recipients or groups:
test@example.com
Your message wasn't delivered due to a permission or security issue. It may have been rejected by a moderator, the address may only accept e-mail from certain senders, or another restriction may be preventing delivery.

The following organization rejected your message: 192.168.1.15.

Diagnostic information for administrators:
Generating server: server.mailproxy.com

test@example.com
192.168.1.15 #<192.168.1.15 #5.7.1 smtp; 553 5.7.1 <test100@example.com>: Sender address rejected: not logged in> #SMTP#
==

Please not that I can send email from root@ mailproxy server to test@example.com using the mailproxy server shell without any problem.

Re: Sender address rejected

By default iredmail won't allow unauthenticated connections coming from domains it controls.

In your case the iredmail controls the example.com domain and the mail proxy is trying to deliver a message from that domain without authenticating.

Re: Sender address rejected

Thank you for you reply.

Added the mailproxy server IP to mynetworks in iRedMail postfix configuration (before I was playing with postfix config of mailproxy server), and the problem has been resolved.
