my mail provider (posteo.de) offers an FQDN during the HELO/EHLO exchange (e.g. mout2.posteo.de) – which is seen by policyd-spf (s. below) – but SpamAssassin on a receiving server marks the relay as offering no FQDN or domain:

I've configured SSMTP to send system messages for users with a UID < 1000 in /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf:

root=to@mydomain.com
rewriteDomain=mydomain.com

If I send an email to root (echo test | sendmail -v root) for example it gets properly delivered to to@mydomain.com (as per root in /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf).

However this doesn't work for user accounts with UIDs greater than 1000. If I send an email  ...

I need to setup DKIM to validate an email provider we are using. In the provider's documentation, they require us to add two records, a selector record and a policy record, like this:

selector._domainkey.mydomain.com TXT "k=rsa; p=mykeyhere"
_domainkey.mydomain.com  TXT "t=y; o=~"

I'm concerned about adding this new policy, because we have quite a few DKIM selectors setup in our DNS zone already, wit ...

I have a web app running on a shared server account for the domain example.com. The web app needs to send the occasional email to the app adminstrator.

The domain example.com is using Outlook.com as the email server.

How can I either:

I have successfully set up a Postfix mailserver with an SMTP interface, set up DKIM, DMARC, SPF, all that stuff.

But I had a problem when testing the delivery of emails to Gmail.

Namely, SPF would pass if I sent it by the sendmail command from the server (some of the ARC-Authentication-Results header content of the delivered message in Gmail):

spf=pass (google.com: domain of redacted@example ...

I've seen few of this question here but I couldn't find a solution for it.

I'm currently trying to set up Postfix with mailtutils, but I can't see my incoming emails in my mailbox, so I am not sure if there is something wrong in the process.

The mails I sent to my mail account appear to be sent in the logs as delivered but they are not received into the mailbox, not even the spam folder. The logs ar ...

Is it possible to configure smtp for postfix to require authentication, (e.g. with smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes), for certain IP ranges but have other ranges un-authenticated?

For our local network we want hosts to be able to relay through the smtp servers without authentication, including sending externally. That network range is listed in mynetworks.

But for other ranges, not on our network but in

I am new to the world of Web Email and domain hosting. I was looking into projects like https://temp-mail.org/en/ and https://kopeechka.store. In these applications I can receive an email address, receive emails to those email addresses, and then delete the email from a simple python client using API calls to their API's. I want to replicate something similar using my own domain name(I have not regist ...

I’m starting with SPF on my (email) domain. (No DKIM or DMARC yet.)

I see little usefulness in HELO identity checking in SPF and am thinking about setting the HELO identity to my domain (instead of the hostname) or the IP of the machine.

Apart from the following points, what is SPF HELO checking good for? What points stand against using IP or domain as identity in SMTP clients?

I'm close to understanding it, but one thing in documentation makes me unsure.

At first, lets take a look at postfix architecture from docs. There are two stages: receiving and delivering. During receiving stage mail is stored in incoming queue and smtp client is notified about successfully enqueueing.

Also documentation says relocated_maps is treating by trivial-rewrite ONLY during delivering stage. And  ...

I've originally asked this in SO but it seems this is a more appropriate place.

When I execute, the following line postfix uses my sendgrid relay server

But when I execute the sendmail function via the PHP script it won't send it to the relay server. Look like it want to distribute it locally

Any thoughts on how to force postfix to use the smtp relay option

We are migrating to a new SMTP host, and have found some issues with some of the sendmail instances I have inherited. The new SMTP host requires all "from" addresses to be from domains we are verified owners of.
