Hi.

When I installed Proxmox, I give a wrong address for my internal mail gateway.
I changed it via the interface.
But It still use the old one to verify receivers.
(And it is the wrong ip so I have a "Recipient address rejected: unverified address: connect to 10.0.0.4[10.0.0.4]:25: Connection refused").

I rebooted but it doesn't change anything.

The verify receiver host isn't the same as the mail gateway ?

proxconfig|grep 10.0.0.4
returns nothing.

Thanks for in advance for your help.

...

the verify receiver host is your internal email server (not the Proxmox Mail Gateway)
 
Hi.

Thanks for your reply but I don't understand : how does proxmox find it ?
on my internal network, "dig mx <mydomain>" returns the right it (10.0.1.45) and not the ip used by proxmox (10.0.0.4).
Proxmox really use the wrong ip I typed when installed.

I suppose it will end with a new install but that's sad ...
 
Well, I finally re-installed with the right ip from start and now verifiy works.

But I'm facing a new problem :
Yesterday, sending mail thru it from outside of my network was working.

Today, it work only from my internal network.
From the outside I have this :

220-cw-mail-gw.cardiweb.com ESMTP Cardiweb
HELO MB
250 cw-mail-gw.cardiweb.com
MAIL FROM: mike@baroukh.com
250 2.1.0 Ok
RCPT TO: mbaroukh@cardiweb.com
550 5.5.1 Protocol error
quit
221 2.0.0 Bye

How can I find what "Protocol Error" mean ?
I see absolutely nothing interesting in log files :

Jul 21 10:00:57 cw-mail-gw postfix/postscreen[3080]: CONNECT from [195.154.242.191]:34861 to [10.0.1.45]:25
Jul 21 10:01:01 cw-mail-gw postfix/postscreen[3080]: PREGREET 9 after 3.7 from [195.154.242.191]:34861: HELO MB\r\n
Jul 21 10:01:07 cw-mail-gw postfix/postscreen[3080]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from [195.154.242.191]:34861: 550 5.5.1 Protocol error; from=<mike@baroukh.com>, to=<mbaroukh@cardiweb.com>, proto=SMTP, helo=<MB>

Note : Hello verification is deactivated. But I also tried with a correct value and it have no effect.

Anybody can help or point me how to investigate ?

thanks.

I added "-vvv" to smtpd in master.cf to debug and ... it worked ...
So I removed and it stll works.
So I do'n't understand.
But all is fine now.
