 Posted: Wed Jan 11, 2017 9:11 pm Post subject: Can't connect to Postfix to send mail [SOLVED] |
 |
|
I recently set up my own mail server. Thunderbird can connect and read IMAP mail, but I can only get as far as "connected to server" when trying to send. It just hangs there until it times out. What am I missing?
Thunderbird outgoing server settings:
Port 465
SSL/TLS
Normal password
Correct user name (user@server.com)
main.cf:
| Code: |
compatibility_level = 2
soft_bounce = yes
queue_directory = /var/spool/postfix
command_directory = /usr/sbin
daemon_directory = /usr/libexec/postfix
data_directory = /var/lib/postfix
mail_owner = postfix
myhostname = (server.domain.com)
myorigin = $myhostname
mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost
unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 550
debug_peer_level = 2
debugger_command =
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin
ddd $daemon_directory/$process_name $process_id & sleep 5
sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail
newaliases_path = /usr/bin/newaliases
mailq_path = /usr/bin/mailq
setgid_group = postdrop
html_directory = no
manpage_directory = /usr/share/man
sample_directory = /etc/postfix
readme_directory = no
inet_protocols = ipv4
meta_directory = /etc/postfix
shlib_directory = /usr/lib64/postfix/${mail_version}
home_mailbox = .maildir/
#Guide config options
virtual_transport = dovecot
dovecot_destination_recipient_limit = 1
smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot
smtpd_sasl_path = private/auth
virtual_alias_maps = mysql:/etc/postfix/sql_virtual_alias_maps.cf
virtual_mailbox_domains = mysql:/etc/postfix/sql_virtual_domain_maps.cf
virtual_mailbox_maps = mysql:/etc/postfix/sql_virtual_mailbox_maps.cf
smtpd_sender_restrictions = reject_non_fqdn_sender
smtpd_reject_unlisted_sender = yes
smtpd_recipient_restrictions =
permit_mynetworks
reject_non_fqdn_recipient
permit_sasl_authenticated
reject_unauth_destination

Hi,
looks like you are missing the section for tls in your main.cf. Check for the following options:
| Code: |
smtpd_tls_key_file
smtpd_tls_cert_file
smtpd_tls_loglevel
smtpd_tls_received_header
smtpd_tls_session_cache_timeout
smtp_tls_mandatory_ciphers
smtp_tls_security_level
smtpd_tls_security_level
smtpd_tls_auth_only
|
Additionally you need the following line in your master.cf. Otherwise port 465 is not available:
| Code: |
smtps inet n - - - - smtpd
|
greets, bb
