Hello

I'm on a PVE 8.3 last community version and I've set a backup to PBS install inside the same node.
I want to receive an email for every backup.
This is my cfg:
  • In Datacenter set the destination email into the root user
  • In options set the sender email
  • In notification set a new smtp (with my valid smtp) and test works well
  • In Backup
    • notification mode to auto
    • send email to added the destination email
    • send email always
I run the job but I can't receive the email.
When I'm going into the notifications panel I've 2 target:
  • mail to root
  • smtp that I've configured
When I click on test only the smtp row send the email.
Mail to root send email ok but I never receive.

Can you help me to solve this problem?

My best regards
 
In nano /etc/postfix/main.cf


Code: 
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost
relayhost =
mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8
inet_interfaces = loopback-only
recipient_delimiter = +

compatibility_level = 2

Is it normal that I can't find relayhost ?

In the backup job, set the "Notification Mode" to "Notification system", see [1]
In the notification settings, make sure that there is a matcher with the settings that you'd like that uses the SMTP notification target.

Hope this helps!

Hello Lukas thanks for your answer.

Set the notification system in notification mode field.
In the Matcher selected mail-to-root and the new smtp too.

If I see the log I read the "from" field is root@pve.domain.lan" but in the datacenter options I've specified another sender address (real).
I've an error in the "to" "delivery temporarily suspended: Host or domain name not found. Name service error for name=domainrecipient.com type=MX: Host not found, try again"

If I telnet my smtp 25 I've the connection.

I've set many other PVE without problem.

Thanks for your support
