ISPConfig 3 RC1 Incoming eMail
 

I think I created a mailuser correctly, but this installation isn't accepting mail for it.

But I can send an e-Mail to hotmail and to gmail from it ! :confused:

This is the failure message from hotmail ( I added extra ______ to foil forum-scraping spambots):
It fails similarly when sending from gmail too.

Please post the error messages from the mail log of your server.

/var/log/mail.err has nothing in it.

Hi everyone. I have had the same problem on my Ubuntu installation and have after a few days of searching down wrong tracks found the solution.

The problem is, at least in Ubuntu, that authlib support is absent in the courier-maildrop package. Once I found out that this was my problem, I was able to get it to work by removing the courier-maildrop package and instead install the standalone maildrop package:

I don't know where else I need to post this solution, someone please direct me. I am a newbee to this site.

And by the way. WOW! This is a great product! :-)

Replaced courier-maildrop with maildrop
 

And I deleted the e-mail domain and recreated it and the user.
Gmail says:


user unknown. Command output: ERR: authdaemon:
s_connect() failed: Permission denied Invalid user specified.
Status: 5.1.1

Diagnostic-Code: x-unix; ERR: authdaemon: s_connect() failed: Permission denied
Invalid user specified.

Hotmail says:
user unknown. Command output: ERR: authdaemon:s_connect() failed: Permission denied Invalid user specified.

This happens when you send an email to your server?
What's in your mail log now?

BAD_HEADER: Improper use of control character
 

I found this line in a file called:
/var/mail/www-data

Here's a screen shot of that file:

What's in /etc/posstfix/main.cf? Which distribution are you using?

Your system seems to work properly. You will just have to change the mailscan option for the email account and domain to not rejecet bad headers.

bad maildrop
 

problem in master.cf in postfix, with arguments who send pipe to maildrop and .mailfilter don't know this argument.
known torouble as "user unknown. Command output: /usr/local/bin/maildrop: Invalid user specified."
