Comments on Installing ASSP (Anti-Spam SMTP Proxy) On Ubuntu Server 10.04 / Debian 5.0
Installing ASSP (Anti-Spam SMTP Proxy) On Ubuntu Server 10.04 / Debian 5.0 This How-To document guides you through installing ASSP (Anti-Spam SMTP Proxy) on an Ubuntu 10.04 (LTS) Server or Debian 5.0 in the simplest way possible. It *may* work on later versions but I have no way of knowing how these instructions will work for you. Installing Ubuntu/Debian is beyond the scope of this document and it is assumed you already have the core Ubuntu/Debian OS with no predefined software collections installed.

The postfix configuration file is named master.cf instead of master.conf so cp /etc/postfix/master.conf /etc/postfix/master.conf.orig should be
cp /etc/postfix/master.cf /etc/postfix/master.cf.orig
and vi /etc/postfix/master.conf should be
vi /etc/postfix/master.cf
You're absolutely right. Fixing...
Now, test it out. Telnet to the Postfix port (i.e. 125) from the local host and then telnet it from anywhere else. The connections from the local host should be permitted but the others should be immediately rejected with 554 5.7.1 Client host rejected: Access denied.
I telnet from the assp machine:
# telnet localhost 125 and it connected
Then i telnet from another pc on my network and it also work, what did i do wrong?
windows: putty 192.168.0.181:125
It will let you connect. It should not let you send mail though.
The default 'SMTP Destination' port for ASSP is 1025... you use 125 in /etc/postfix/master.cf
Hmm... strange... in my version at the time I wrote this it was 125. But it really is irrelevant. You can set it up to whatever you like. Port 125 can be considered an example.
telnet localhost 25
should be
telnet localhost 125
