Virtual Users And Domains With Postfix, Courier, MySQL And SquirrelMail Debian Lenny

[metfan]

Hello,

First thanks for the tutorial, , but I have some trouble with it.
I test it 3 times on my server and different VM, but I always have same error.

- 1st:
On page 2 I don't understand (I'm a beginner) which configuration I must use in file /etc/aliases

postmaster: root
root: postmaster@ks358431.kimsufi.com
clamav: root

- 2nd :
I sent welcome mail but any directory was created.

- 3rd:
according to my log I have trouble with clamav:

Jul 27 17:00:48 ks358431 postfix/smtp[27947]: 90F2CC12F: to=<ulrich@live-pics.net>, relay=127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]:10024, delay=7.1, delays=0.02/0/0/7.1, dsn=4.5.0, status=deferred (host 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1] said: 451-4.5.0 Error in processing, id=25888-07, virus_scan FAILED: virus_scan: ALL VIRUS SCANNERS FAILED: ClamAV-clamd av-scanner FAILED: run_av error: Too many retries to talk to /var/run/clamav/clamd.ctl (Can't connect to UNIX socket /var/run/clamav/clamd.ctl: No such file or directory) at (eval 86) line 309.; ClamAV-clamscan av-scanner FAILED: /usr/bin/clamscan unexpected exit 50, output="LibClamAV Warning: *********************************************************** 451-4.5.0 LibClamAV Warning: ***  This version of the ClamAV engine is outdated.     *** 451-4.5.0 LibClamAV Warning: *** DON'T PANIC!

(in reply to end of DATA command))

- 4th
when I try to log on squirrelmail I have this error: "ERROR: Connection dropped by IMAP server."
I supposed it's link to my 2nd problem.

I hope some of you will take time to help me.

Thanks

Any errors in /var/log/mail.log?

Regarding the ClamAV error: add

deb http://volatile.debian.org/debian-volatile lenny/volatile main contrib non-free

to /etc/apt/sources.list and run

apt-get update

apt-get install clamav clamav-daemon

Hello,

Thanks for info, clamav is working weel now.

I didn't reply because I stayed update of DNS.
Unfortunately, I have again one problem: 'alias database loop for postmaster'

this is my mail.log:

First you should add mail.live-pics.net to the mydestination line in /etc/postfix/main.cf.

Jul 30 10:35:41 ks358431 postfix/local[1892]: warning: alias database loop for postmaster

Please post your /etc/aliases file.

[metfan]

Hello,

Do I need to add mail.domain.tld on postfix destination to all domaine name I will setup a mail?

I spoted my aliases file on first post.

# /etc/aliases
mailer-daemon: postmaster
postmaster: root
nobody: root
hostmaster: root
usenet: root
news: root
webmaster: root
www: root
ftp: root
abuse: root
noc: root
security: root
root: postmaster@ks358431.kimsufi.com
clamav: root

No.

Is postmaster@ks358431.kimsufi.com a local account, or is it on a remote mailserver?

[metfan]

-> If I don't need to put mail.domain.tld for all domain i will setup a mail service, why I need to add mail.live-pics.net ?

-> oups, as I said in my first post, I didn't understand configuration of /etc/aliases file. postmaster@ks358431.kimsufi.com is neither a local account nor remote mail server. ks358431.kimsufi.com is name of my server. Do I must replace postmaster by root or user postfix?

Thanks

Then it is a local account, and you have created a mail loop (the mails will go to postmaster, then to root, then to postmaster again, and so on). Please use another email address.

[metfan]

I tried to replace postmaster@ks358431.kimsufi.com by ulrich@live-pics.net but as I thank, it failed.

I replaced postmaster@ks358431.kimsufi.com but vmail@ks358431.kimsufi.com.
vmail is a user on server, we created this user on your howto.
And it seems to be OK:

Aug 4 10:31:19 ks358431 postfix/qmgr[32278]: 5EC63BFC1: removed

But nothing happened in /home/vmail/ and I always have this error "ERROR: Connection dropped by IMAP server" when I logging to squirel.

damn, it's not easy to understand an howto when we are a beginner

Did you run

newaliases

afterwards and restart Postfix?

Any errors in your mail log?
