Virtual Users And Domains With Postfix, etc, problem with SMTP/Auth wrong password

[ggere]

Okay, checked the /etc/postfix/main.cf and the proxy_read_maps line was there. So I removed the proxy part from the virtual_mailbox_maps line and receive no more errors in my mail.log file.

I sent a test message from the "admin" account to "postmaster@portfoliomci.com" and this is the log notes:

When you want to send emails, or when you try to fetch emails? Or both?

IMAP is what I'm testing at the moment, so receiving emails. But I believe sending isn't working either. Note: I can send via mutt on the server between real accounts, but I can't test virtual accounts in this way.

Did you use Debian stable or testing to install the server? Because in the tutorial I use stable which comes with Postfix 2.1.5, but testing comes with Postfix 2.2.x, and since 2.2 the format of the lookup files has changed.

Have a look here: http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/sho...?t=1149&page=4

Which Postfix version do you have? Run

postconf -d | grep mail_version

to find out.

I'm using stable:

[root@email:~]# postconf -d | grep mail_version
mail_version = 2.1.5

I think this may have to do with me not having the dns information completely setup yet, instead I'm trying to connect to ggere@192.168.1.37 (the internal IP of the email server) and I have 192.168.1.37 in my domains table and a user ggere@192.168.1.37 in the users table. I will try to get my dns information setup today and see if that helps.

If you think this isn't what is causing the problem feel free to continue and try to help, I really appreciate your input. Otherwise perhaps it would be best to wait until the dns setup is complete.

Thanks.

Let's wait until DNS is set up.
