Topic: iRedMail 0.7.0 and mail alias

Hello folks,

I try to create mail aliases using the tutorial <http://www.iredmail.org/wiki/index.php? … pLDAPadmin>

My alias is created but I cannont sent with. Note that I can received mail by this alias.

In /var/log/mail.log I found:

<alias@example.com>: Sender address rejected: not owned by user mail@example.com.

I cannot connect to roundcube with this alias. I can connect with my regular email adresse.

Something strange, when I send a mail to thos alias from google mail, the mail is correctly delivered to the regular email address, but the server sent a Mail Delivery Error to my google account:

I'm sorry to have to inform you that your message could not
be delivered to one or more recipients. It's attached below.

What can I do to make this feature work? What to you think about the Mail Delivery Error?

Thanks in advance,
Jacques

You should remove 'reject_sender_login_mismatch' from postfix setting smtpd_sender_restrictions.
Search 'reject_sender_login_mismatch' in this forum will give you more detail.

This is correct. Mail Alias is not a user.

Something strange, when I send a mail to thos alias from google mail, the mail is correctly delivered to the regular email address, but the server sent a Mail Delivery Error to my google account:

Please post the whole error message, you didn't post the most important error message.

Also, it's highly recommended to manage mail accounts (includes mail alias) with iRedAdmin-Pro.

Re: iRedMail 0.7.0 and mail alias

Hello,

I removed the reject_sender_login_mismatch. Now the messages are delivered, but the sender still received the not delivered message

I add a catchall in /etc/postifx/virtual but it seems to not work.
In smtpd_recipient_restricgtions I found reject_unlisted_recipient which should not be true because of the catchall

There is the full error message received by the sender.

This is the mail system at host mail.example.net.

I'm sorry to have to inform you that your message could not
be delivered to one or more recipients. It's attached below.

For further assistance, please send mail to postmaster.

If you do so, please include this problem report. You can
delete your own text from the attached returned message.

Did you list this file in posrfix main.cf? it's not used in iRedMail be default.

This setting is correct.
You can create catchall account in LDAP. Sample LDIF data of catch-all account:

dn: mail=@borkh.net,ou=Users,domainName=borkh.net,o=domains,dc=iredmail,dc=org
accountstatus: active
cn: Catch-all account
mail: @borkh.net
mailforwardingaddress: user01@example.com
mailforwardingaddress: user02@example.com
objectclass: inetOrgPerson
objectclass: mailUser
sn: Catch-all account
uid: catchall

It's highly recommended to manage iRedMail with iRedAdmin-Pro, you can try our demo here:
http://demo.iredmail.org/

Screenshot of create catch-all account in iRedAdmin-Pro-LDAP:

Re: iRedMail 0.7.0 and mail alias

Hi,

Yes, I listed /etc/postfix/virtual in the virtual_alias_maps statement, at the end:

virtual_alias_maps = proxy:ldap:/etc/postfix/ldap/virtual_alias_maps.cf, proxy:ldap:/etc/postfix/ldap/virtual_group_maps.cf, proxy:ldap:/etc/postfix/ldap/sender_login_maps.cf, proxy:ldap:/etc/postfix/ldap/catchall_maps.cf, hash:/etc/postfix/virtual

And I do the postmap th create the binary indexed file.

Jacques

I find the root cause.

iRedMail uses dovecot-lda as MDA (mail deliver agent), since you create accounts in static file, it can't find these accounts.

There're several ways to solve this issue:

*) Add a static userdb/passdb in dovecot.conf, so that lda can find these users.
*) Config postfix to use transport  'virtual' instead of 'dovecot' (it's default in iRedMail).
*) Create mail accounts (user, alias, mail list) in LDAP. Personally, i recommend this way for better management.

I will implemente the LDAP catchall as you suggest before.

Thank your very much for your help.

Re: iRedMail 0.7.0 and mail alias

Hello again,

I created the LDIF catchall file and import it into my LDAP. I reloaded postfix, but it still does not work as expected for reception.

In fact the mail is delivered but the Undelivered Mail Returned to Sender alert is send too.
