10.7 SMTP Mail Logs send email address- Assign Postmaster?

How do you assign the SMTP mail log email address? I received an email this morning from another System Administrator (who previously administered this server), that he received the following message (I should be receiving these notifications, not him. To add: I was already the "Alert Email Address." Is there another location, where the SA's email address is set?):
From: Mail Delivery System
Subject: Postfix SMTP server: errors from server2.domain.com
Date: September 23, 2013 6:05:43 AM EDT
To: Postmaster
Transcript of session follows.
Out: 220 server.domain.com ESMTP Postfix

I am having the same problem. I also can't send anything with attachments at all. Mail Just hangs there endlessly. This is a HUGE problem for me right now, and I don't feel like using entourage mail because it is not really reliable either. Does anyone know how to get a direct hold of Mac Telephone Support or engineering? I need to fix this problem like right now. We need to go back one level of code. Mr. Logic... This is my third day since I downloaded this code revision too, so please let me know what you find out, and I will do the same for you. I should have known better than to install this code without reading up on the issues and fixes.

Since downloading the 10.4.7 update I've experienced
the mail problem wherein emails can't be sent to the
smtp server. I've read all the discussions on all
the various fora, and tried all the fixes (e.g.
downloading the combo update instead, trashing mail
preferences, repairing permissions, setting up mail
again from scratch, looking for the SOCKS proxy,
resetting the PRAM, etc. etc. etc.) but all to no
avail.
Note that in my case the SOCKS proxy checkbox was
NEVER ticked/checked and so I couldn't uncheck it
(which was the fix that seems to have worked for most
people).
Anyway... last night I thought would try setting the
SOCKS proxy checkbox myself, so that I could then
uncheck it. (you never know!)
However, when doing this I noticed that any changes I
made to the proxy checkboxes in the Network system
preference panel ARE NOT SAVED.
i.e. If I tick one or more of them and Apply the
changes, then exit the Network Preferences panel, the
relaunch the Network Preferences panel, they are all
UNCHECKED again.
Is this related to my Mail problem? Any clues?
This is my 3rd day without the ability to send email
from the Mail client in 10.4.7. Not good.
Any help/suggestions appreciated.

Sending mail from alternate email address

So i set up a dummy Yahoo mail acct that my corporate email is forwarded to. I changed the settings on yahoo to display my corporate email address as when sending mail (so when i log into yahoo mail and compose an email to John Doe, when he opens it it says it came from my corporate email address). I then added that dummy yahoo mail acct to my iphone. However, when i send mail from it on my iphone, it does not display my corporate email address to the reciepeint, it displays the actual yahoo address. how can i make the iphone send the mail the same way i send it when actually logged into yahoo on the computer? i want reciepeints to see the mail they reieve as if it came from my corporate email address. Help is GREATLY appreciated!

On your computer, this is done via webmail access with Yahoo using a browser, or with an email client such as Outlook or Outlook Express/Windows Mail on a PC, or with the Mail.app on a Mac?
If this is not done with an email client, this is why you are able to do this on your computer and not with the iPhone's Mail app, which is an email client. This is something Yahoo prevents, not Apple or the iPhone. Yahoo has an authenticated SMTP server which doesn't allow for using the SMTP server to send email with another account, or sending an email with a Yahoo account with a different email address other than the Yahoo email address to be shown as the sending email address. This is what spammers do.

Mac mail keeps sending emails from different accounts even though it says correct email in "sent" folder. Recipients reply and it goes to different email address. So confusing.

mac mail keeps sending emails from my different accounts even though it says correct email in "sent" folder and correct email account was highlighted. Recipients reply and it goes to different email address. So confusing and annoying.

Hi Mike,
I had the same issue and managed to solve it.
Go into Mail>Preferences>Accounts
Then in the account information tab, at the bottom should be outgoing mail server (SMTP) and click the drop down box
Mine had a few different servers in it so i went into edit SMPT server list. Click advanced and it will tell you which ones are going from which email address.
Delete the ones you dont want, and it should work or instead of deleting click use only this server, i imagine that will work to
Hope This Helps

Does Authenticated SMTP Ensure that the Sender Email Address Matches the Username/password Entered?

Does Authenticated SMTP ensure that the sender email address
matches the username/password entered?
<P>
Not by default. However, in netscape.mail.conf, you can set
RewriteFromUsingAuth and/or RewriteSenderUsingAuth to "Yes"
which will rewrite the header "From:" and/or "Sender:" to be
the authenticated sender of the message.
<P>
On NT, the keys are in the registry under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Netscape\Messaging Server\3.0\Dispatch\Config

I found the answer.
Apple has turned on an app-specific password for iPhoto and other Apple apps. It's located in the Apple ID management section under Passwords and Security.
As soon as I entered that new generated password in iPhoto I was able to send a pic with my iCloud.com email address.
Now I know where to go. Thanks for your help.

Why is Mail asking me for the name of an smtp server for an email address that doesn't exist?

I've migrated from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion on a new Mac, but in trying to use Mail on ML, it keeps asking me for the name of an smtp server for an email address that's never existed. The addy has my user name correct, but the server part of the address doesn't exist, or at least I've never used an email address with that provider. On ML there's no plist file for Mail, so nothing to delete there. What else can I do to get Mail working? The only other option I have is to abandon Mail as being crippled and useless, and use Postbox, which for it's price (US$9.95) is an attractive option. OTOH, I've paid for Mail after all, so it really ought to work. Any clues as to what I can do to stop its nonsensical behaviour? How do I file a bug report?
TIA.

BODS 3.1 :SMTP configuration to send email for success or failure of job

Hi.
This is further to this post : http://forums.sdn.sap.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1965129&tstart=0
Thanks to all for the help.
I did not find a complete set of information as things to do (for a person who is new to BODS).
Hence sharing the workflow which works for me when tested on a simple workflow :
Pre-requisite : SMTP service to be made available on the BODS server and port 25 to be opened up.
This is done by the IT dept of the company.
When smtp service is activated and port 25 is opened up, telnet IP address 25 should say, service is available.
Suggestion : create a email group like : bods at company.com which can be used to be used for the BODS JOBs. Which does not prompt for a password. This also is done by the IT dept of the company.
1) On the BODS server :
1) Click open Data Services Server Manager
2) SMTP settings for smtp_to functions :
Add the IP Address of the SMTP server
Add the email address of the sender. Eg. bodsjobs at companyname,com
3)Apply/Restart the server.
2) Login to BODS Designer :
Create a test job :
TRY ==>DF===> Script for success ===> CATCH script for failure
In the script for success : add the following :
print (' IN TRY BLOCK Before email ' );
smtp_to('bodsjobs at abc,com', ' SUCCESS OF JOB : '
|| job_name(),'Job completed successfully ', 0, 0);
print('After Email ');
In the script for Catch add the following :
print (' IN CATCH BLOCK Before email ' );
smtp_to('bodsjobs at abc,com', 'FAILURE OF JOB : '
|| job_name(),
error_number( ) || 'Error message: ' || error_message( ) ||
'check details', 50, 50);
print('After Email ');
Note : In the catch : select all exceptions on the check box.
Save all.
Click on the job and say execute.
The job will run and if it is successful. You will receive the succes mail.
If there is any error in the DF before the catch, you will receive a mail, which says failure.
The above workflow, when tested atleast works for me.
Hope this helps.

Hi Arun.
Am really not aware as to how to make things work from the console.
I work on windows environment both at client and on the server.
It looks like you got a bit confused on suggestion of a email group account.
I never did anything on outlook configuration for activation of smtp for bods.
I think you should not mess with outlook.
I dont know from the client side how things work.
But i have worked directly on the BODS server where the bods installation was done.
It is relatively very simple to do and to test.
But to even test why you get that error.
All you need is just a email id. Which could be yours ???
Put your email id as the source of email in that box in the job server.
And put only your email id in smtp_to and test it.
Run a test job. If it completes successfully. You will receive a mail.
In the catch, if you have checked all the boxes for error capture,
if the job fails, it would throw a dump of the errors in the email.
Once everything works well and you receive emails for any jobs you are running.
Then you could decide for the source of your email id and for the receipients of your emails of the jobs.
You could put a group id of your team as source. And also in smtp_to script in case you want everyone to receive the alert that the job has been done or it has errors.
Or include only those email ids in the smtp_to whom you feel, should receive the mail.
Hope this idea helps.
Please dont mess with outlook for any smtp activation for bods.
It is not required if you are working on a windows environment.
You just need a email id for testing.
Outlook configuration does not come into picture at all.
if there is any other unix environment involved. I have no idea.
And i really do not know how things would be from a client side to configure.
Server configurations i do from the server.
I did all configurations on the main server machine. Not from the client.
And I have only one job server so i did everything there.
I did not do anything from management console.
I use management console only for monitoring of jobs on a daily basis, the dashboard which gives you details of the data pulled, time taken etc etc.
cheers
indu.

Hotmail - Sender email address is invalid

Hi,
Ever since I got my new iPhone 3GS, I have not been able to send emails. I had an izymail subscription for hotmail on my original iPhone and it worked fine. I synced everything over to my new iPhone 3GS and also made a new email account as Hotmail is now free to set up using POP3.
I turned my izymail account off because I was having problems with it fetching old deleted emails once or twice a week. Everything was working as normal until I tried to send an email and the following message appeared: "Sender email address is invalid"
I've tried switching my izymail account back on and switching my new Hotmail POP3 account off and my emails will send ok...
So why are my emails not sending with my newly setup Hotmail POP3 account?

Sender Address invalid is the error message you get when your SMTP (outgoing email) settings are not working.
Many times this is because you are trying to use an SMTP server on a WiFi network and the ISP is blocking all SMTP connections that are not going to the ISP servers - this is to stop spammers.
Also, you will get this message when you try to use your SMTP server on 3G or Edge - the ISP sees a connection to their email server (SMTP) coming from AT&T (or your cell carrier) network not their own network and they think it is spammer so they deny the connection.
Some things to try - turn on the default SMTP server on the ipHone that corresponds to your carrier - when on 3G/Edge you can use this outgoing email server to connect without problems. Or, look to see if your ISP offers an email server on a different port (mine offers one on port 80 - all web browsers use this so other nets can't block it). Look for settings for authenticated SMTP servers - if your mail provider offers this it may be a way in also.
The search box (top right) will bring you many threads on this same subject.

Changing sender email address via rewriting rules

My objective is to change my sender email address. For example, suppose my OCS email address is [email protected] and I would to send an email to [email protected]
John logs into yahoo mail and would see my mail. Upon opening my email, I would like John to see that the sender email address to be [email protected] so that whenever John replies my mail, the replied mail would go to [email protected] and not to [email protected]
I read the email admin guide and I configure the Sender rewriting rules within SMTP_OUT. I have key in the following within the Sender rewriting rules: $*@test.abc.com.my,$[email protected]
I restart the SMTP_OUT services and I check the log files in MIDTIER_HOME/oes/log/um_system/SMTP_OUT/12345
I found out that the rewriting rules have take effect on one of the lines.
Then I log into OCS as user Andrew with test.abc.com.my domain and send an email to yahoo.
I open my yahoo mail, which I receive the email.
However the sender email address remains unchanged which is [email protected]
How can I change the sender email domain?
thanks;
andrew

Your observation is very correct in terms of symptoms, not of behaviour. We have numerous ER's there enabling header rewriting, too. Obviously for you, envelope rewriting works well, without to achieve the target you want to address. Please forward your request to Support Services with an Enhancement Request for native header rewriting.
Otherwise 3 ways:
1 Milter C-SDK
2 Milter general
3 relay accomplishing this task.
On 2,3 we have samples ready, for 3 in particular for postfix.

How can I find out the mail server from email address?

Hi:
How can I find out the mail server from email address?
for example: If I know the email address is [email protected],
how to find the pop3 and smtp mail server?
THANK YOU

You can't tell by the email address since you can pretty much put whatever you want in there (especially if the SMTP server is not filtering anything).
The header may be able to tell you something. There is a Received header value which looks like it has the routing information although I am not sure if this is a complete trace or just the last hop the message took.

Webservice needs sender email address to be that of service user -how todo?

I host a web service. It is used by merchants in their web sites. My web service sends notifications to the merchants customers. Trouble is the sender email address is my web service email address and not that of the merchant. Some merchants do not like this and they want emails to their customers to be seen to come from them.
What would I (or the merchant) need to do in order to be able to set the sender email address to that of the merchant. Im assuming I can't just go ahead and set the sender to be any old email address! e.g. Im thinking Id have to use the merchants smtp host or something.

You can set the sender to whatever you want; that's why there's spam.
Whether your SMTP server will allow you to send with any arbitrary sender is a different story.
If you run your own SMTP server, you can control this. Otherwise, yes, you would probably need
to use the merchant's SMTP server and login credentials.

Sender email address verification

During my recent DNS server outage (caused by XO DSL suddenly turning on filtering of port 53), I noticed something quite interesting with .Mac server and I am wondering if there is a way for Tiger server users to EASILY implement the same feature to reduce the inflow of spam?
When my DNS stopped, my .Mac account STOPPED accepting email from my work account, essentially saying there was no such account on my work server.
I obviously do understand that the fact that my DNS was not working and my server could not be verified was the reason for this, but it got me thinking....
Is there any easy way to put this sort of incoming email verification process on my OWN Tiger server (work)? i.e. Only accept delivery of incoming email AFTER you verify that the sender email address DOES correspond to a valid email account on the senders host?? - which means no bogus email address or hostnames accepted...
I think this would help cut down on a lot of Spam as these guys often send junkmail via bogus accounts/host names that cannot be replied to.
Any useful information regarding setting this up would be most appreciated
Thanks in advance - Rohin

My question is ... wouldn't it make sense to check whether sender emails are valid before accepting email server connections.
There's not really any way of doing that, besides, that's not really what you want.
What you want is to ensure that the email comes from the person that it says it comes from. What you'd get is that the email says it comes from a valid email address. This is not the same thing.
Even now, 99% of spam emails are sent from valid email addresses - it's trivial to put any email address in the 'from' header.
Knowing that the From address is valid doesn't actually do anything to say that the person in the From header is the one who actually sent the message in the first place.
There are several industry-wide attempts and performing validation at the domain level, which is about as good as it's going to get in the near term. For more information check out Sender Policy Framework which defines (via DNS) which IP addresses are permitted to send email for a particular domain, and DomainKeys which uses digital signatures to validate the email.
Since both models require input from the domain owners, they won't be 100% reliable until all domains opt-in to the schemes. For now it can help validate that an email is from a legitimate domain, but the absence of a SPF or DomainKey doesn't necessarily mean the message is spam.
The only way to verify that the email comes from a valid user is some kind of confirmation - an email comes into your mail system which doesn't recognize the sender, so it holds the mail and sends a message back to the sender saying 'who are you?" and "if this message is legitimate, follow this link to unblock the message". The message is forwarded only after the sender confirms their identity and that the message is legitimate.
This has all kinds of issues, though including latency (it takes longer for messages to get to you), delays (what if the sender sends the message right before they leave on a week's vacation?), and not least the complete lack of support for any kind of automated messages, list, etc. that are sent from non-humans.

Workflow step - send email - address of sender

Hi,
We are using workflow to register travels and leave requests and we are sending emails to the employees about eg. that their document has been rejected/approved. Emails are sent by user WFBATCH. Is it possible to change this user to some other one so that we could change the sender email address?
Thank you!

Hello,
If you're usng a SendMail step then (if I remember correctly) it's always run in background and therefore always WF-BATCH.
Usually, if I want to do anything unusual with mails from workflow then I create a step which calls a task which calls a new method of my BOR object which calls fm SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1. See if you can specify the sender there.
Please let the forum know how you get on.

Change sender email address for payment advice

Hi,
I used FIBF to activate BTE 2040 to allow me email Payment Advice. This is working well and takes the 'Sender' email address from the user master data. I don't want to use the user master data so does anyone know how/where to change the sender email in the code?
I have copied SAMPLE_PROCESS_00002040 and can implement 2050 if needed but that seems to only modify the text of the mail - not the sender email?
Thanks.

I Cannot get yahoo mail to send emails. I wonder what step I missed during the sort up process?

Howdy msmantila,
It sounds like you cannot check your Yahoo email on the iPad. I would recommend the troubleshooting in the following article to help get that resolved, named:
iOS: Troubleshooting Mail
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3899
Tap Safari and load a webpage. If you can load a webpage, then your device has Internet access. If you can't load a webpage, check your Wi-Fi connection or try a different Internet connection:
Try a different Wi-Fi connection.
If your iOS device has an active cellular data plan, tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn off Wi-Fi.
If the affected email account is provided by your Internet provider, see if your issue is resolved while connected to your home Wi-Fi network.*
Log in to your email provider's website to make sure that the account is active and the password is correct.
Make sure your settings are correct using Mail Settings Lookup.
Restart your iOS device.
Delete the affected email account from your device.
Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Tap the affected email account.
Tap Delete Account.
Add your account again.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

thanks

you ust to download activation.jar and mail.jar and add them to your build path.
i have used the googlemail smtp server to send mail the code is following:
public void SendMail()
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("mail.smtp.user", username);
props.put("mail.smtp.host", host);
props.put("mail.smtp.port", port);
props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable","true");
props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
props.put("mail.smtp.socketFactory.port", port);
try{
     Authenticator auth = new SMTPAuthenticator(username,password);
Session session = Session.getInstance(props, auth);
MimeMessage msg = new MimeMessage(session);
msg.setText(text);
msg.setSubject(subject);
msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress(senderEmail));
msg.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress(receiver));
Transport.send(msg);
}catch(Exception ex) {
     System.out.println("Error Sending:");
System.out.println(ex.getMessage().toString());
and this the SMTPAuthenticator Class which you will need too.
class SMTPAuthenticator extends javax.mail.Authenticator {
     private String fUser;
     private String fPassword;
     public SMTPAuthenticator(String user, String password) {
     fUser = user;
     fPassword = password;
     public PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
     return new PasswordAuthentication(fUser, fPassword);
     }
