Postfix howto: problems sending mails with outlook

[webbies]

Hi,

I installed postfix like it is described in

http://howtoforge.com/virtual_postfix_mysql_quota_courier

Everything works fine with Thunderbird but when sending mails with Outlook I get an error mail with the subject

Undelivered Mail Returned to Sender

and the content

SPAM (in reply to end of DATA command)

here is my main.cf


# See /usr/share/postfix/main.cf.dist for a commented, more complete version

smtpd_banner = $myhostname ESMTP $mail_name (Debian/GNU)
biff = no

# appending .domain is the MUA's job.
append_dot_mydomain = no

# Uncomment the next line to generate "delayed mail" warnings

What's in your mail log when this happens?

[webbies]

can you see something abnormal? The only difference is that I use IMAP with Thunderbird and POP3 with Outlook but that can't bemy SMTP problem

[chuckl]

Your Outlook connection is coming from:

postfix/smtpd[30391]: disconnect from dslb-088-076-248-223.pools.arcor-ip.net[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]
which Amavis is binning as spam, as almost any dsl ip address is automatically blacklisted.

The Thunderbird connection is not doing so

postfix/smtpd[30391]: disconnect from xyz[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]

[webbies]

the connection can't be different, its the same workstation. I only forgot to comment out the arcor host. How can I see if amavis is blocking dsl connections?

[chuckl]

I never said the connection was different, just that what is being reported is different. It is definitely being quaratined as spam - extract from the same file frag above -

amavis[30586]: (30586-01) Blocked SPAM, [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] <me@mydomain.com> -> <me@mydomain.com>, quarantine: spam-zzWOWOPYQGxt.gz, Message-ID: <001601c7a796$0b964940$0900a8c0@ws>, mail_id: zzWOWOPYQGxt, Hits: 6.938, 3395 ms
postfix/smtp[30464]: D45A480043C: to=<me@mydomain.com>, relay=127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1], delay=4, status=bounced (host 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1] said: 554 5.7.1 Rejected, id=30586-01 - SPAM (in reply to end of DATA command))

It may be that the IMAP is overriding the 'negative' association of the dsl source?

[webbies]

I have the same problem when I use IMAP with Outlook

[webbies]

I've got it :) I need the following entry in the amavis config

$relayhost_is_client = 0;

that line was missing after an update of amavis. I don't really understand this option, but it works
