postfix issues unknown mail transport error [solved]

Message

gohmdoree · Post by **gohmdoree** » Fri Sep 14, 2007 4:53 am

i'm able to send out mail on my postfix,amavis,clamav,spamassassin. i been looking over and over and my eyes are now crossed.

i get the following

Sep 14 00:47:30 u00 postfix/qmgr[5446]: 055638D3B4: to=<user@domain.com>, relay=none, delay=1072, delays=1055/17/0/0, dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred (unknown mail transport error)

there were a handful of how-tos, and my eyes are staying crossed.

what is the relevant that i need to post? my master.cf? main.cf? amavis.cf?

i been trying to find the relavant for the above, but not doing antyhing for me.

which tutorials were you following?
postfix is only the mta, what kind of imap/pop server do you use?

gohmdoree · Post by **gohmdoree** » Sat Sep 15, 2007 8:02 pm

using dbmail. i take it by your questioning, maybe a dbmail configuration issue.

I've got the same error:

http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-42 ... ml#4241243

it's definitely postfix

gohmdoree · Post by **gohmdoree** » Sat Sep 15, 2007 11:39 pm

i think it was just a lot of things going on, things to set that i missed the key.

Code: Select all

mailbox_transport = dbmail-smtp:

it should have been:

Code: Select all

mailbox_transport = dbmail-smtp:[127.0.0.1]:24

i read somewhere else that my error meant that amavisd couldn't connect back with postfix. i'm using dbmail for my setup.

also in the virtual and transport hash i have the following:

Code: Select all

*               dbmail-smtp:[127.0.0.1]:10024

gohmdoree · Post by **gohmdoree** » Sun Sep 23, 2007 12:24 am

the one thing that i'm noticing is that i can't send mail out. it takes it, and returns undeliverable, stating user unknown. from what i understand, i guess postfix understands itself to be the last stop, so its trying to find the respective email address on the local machine?

not sure what configuration needs to change from what i have above.
