Dropping connection from inbound mail
About 2 days ago our server stopped being willing to receive messages from one of our client's outbound servers. Sometimes they receive a message bounceback immediately, other times in several hours or overnight. No changes were made to our server or mail configuration and we are successfully receiving messages from numerous other folks to the same address without issue.
Included below is an excerpt of the mail.log file showing an attempted connect to our server and then "immediate" loss of connection. I have tried restarting the mail service and rebooting the server (10.5.4). Does this look like an issue at our end or their's? If ours, any thoughts on cause and cure? Note also that we're behind a Cisco Pix, but no changes have been there for a considerable period either and the "no fixup protocol smtp 25" is set. We are not running spam filtering.
Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Brian

Always fun to answer your own question. It turns out that the application of the "no fixup protocol smtp 25" to the Pix seems to have resolved this issue. Very odd I must say, because the "fixup" had been active since setting the unit up years ago... Nonetheless, mail from this client is coming through now (including the backlog...oh joy).

Drop connection from AP1550 - WLC8500
Hi everyone
I´m hopping you can help with a problem I´m experimenting with a wireless lan. I´m working with the WLC 8500 and 7 AP 1550; we already setup this equipments since last year, working without a problem, because there was not much traffic (This WLAN is working on a university). a few months ago we began to experiment a few drop connections from one AP, but 2 days ago, all AP are having drop connection all the time, with latency of more than one thousand miliseconds.
We checked the setup again, and all seens fine, the only thing that we are not sure is about the "load profile" from the 2.4Ghz frecuency, is changing continiously from passed to failed.
All the AP are working as root (no mesh network), all of them are in local mode, they are working at 2.4Ghz, all AP are using the same VLAN (just one).
What can we do with this issue?
Thanks and best regards
Alvaro RugamaHello Alvaro ,
As per your query i can suggest you -
Check the vlan settings as well as log-profile logging is turned on.

Drop connections from specific hosts/nets
Hi all.
I'd like to completely drop connections coming from some specific die-hard UCE mass mailers who keep hammering my mail system.
I blocked their IP ranges in my RAT with connection behavior set to either Reject or TCP refuse, but they keep trying anyway.
Both my boxes get about 50 connections/min night and day from these companies (even if they get rejected on the first box with a 554 error code, i.e. permanent failure, they try on the next box anyway, and try and try again...)
So, is there a way to do this with AsyncOS at the IP or TCP layer ?
Or do I need to do this on my firewall ?
TIA.
PS: I miss Ironportnation. It was so much better than this...Yeah? OK, I guess I'll block them at the firewall level.
Since I'll end-up droping the connection anyway, it somewhat makes sense to drop it as early as possible.
It would have been nice to keep all mail-related configuration in the same place though. -
New Airport Extreme (6th Gen) Dropping Connection from Time to Time.
Problem:
6th Generation Airport Extreme drops connection intermittently at random times.
Set Up:
6th Generation Airport Extreme (main router - no hard drive/not a time capsule) located center of house on the main floor. 2 Range extenders each approximately 30+ feet away from main router. First range extender (Airport Express - newest generation) located on the third floor parallel to main. Second range extender (Airport Express - new generation) is located at the end of the kitchen (main floor).
Main Router is connected straight from a Motorolla Surfboard modem on a foyer table at the center of the house.
Range extenders connected to Main Router wirelessly and at wall outlett height.
Previous Setup:
Same setup as above but, with the 5th Generation Airport Extreme instead of the 6th Generation.
Firmware:
All current versions.
Devices:
1 SONY VAIO VGN-FW490J
HP Notebook G60
Several WEMO outlets
1 iPad Mini
1 iPad 2
1 iPhone 5
1 Motorolla RAZR MAXX
Macbook Pro
iMac (wired from main router on foyer table)
Note: All of these routers/range extenders/modem/computers are plugged into surge protected outlets.
Notes:
With the new Airport Extreme my family and I have been experiencing intermettent connection drops. The amber light on the main router turns on and within a few minutes turns green and connection resumes again. This has been happening for a few days now ever since I purchased the new router. This has not happened before with the 5th generation router, which I donated to our church.
I have not exchanged the product yet. I will be initiating a Complete Power Recycle after some suggested solutions in a bit. I have contacted my Internet Service Provider (Comcast) for a line check and found no problems.
Has anyone found any solutions to resolve the intermittent connection drops? Is reverting to the previous firmware going to solve this?
I would like some insights before trying to do all this. Thank you all for your time.
P.s.
I've done a detailed post since posts like these is frequently asked questions on set-up, devices, connections, etc:Update:
Before I went to exchange my 6th Gen Extreme, I ran through all possible solutions from complete power recycle to no devices connected. I even went out of my way to my cousin's house to test it out. The same problem still kept coming.
I was able to exchange my 6th Gen Airprt Extreme with another 6th Gen Extreme the other day. I set it up how the instructions told me and within an hour it did the exact same problem as the previous 6th Gen Extreme. I gave up and decided to get the ASUS RT-AC66R (ASUS RT-AC66U is the same, just the 'R' is Best Buy's model.)
The ASUS router is just as great as the 6th Gen Router. You can actually get it down to $180 by price matching to Amazon. The ASUS router has 3 antennas that you can adjust according to where the signal is used more. I pointed them more towards the backyard, upstairs, and the living room. The range is by far better than the Extreme because of this. I was able to drive down a good block (3-4 houses down) and still connected to my router. Also it has 2 USB ports which was fantastic for me so I can plug in my external hard drive and a non-wireless printer. It has many more features that I really liked that I didn't even know was possible. The router utility interface is a bit confusing at first but, it's pretty easy once you get the hang of it.
Some features that I liked with the ASUS was the ability to have multiple guest network with time limits. 3 for 2.4gHz and 3 for 5gHz. I think that Airport guest accounts are only allowed 2.4gHz but not a 5gHz. Though I only needed 1 for each but, I can see this working well for businesses.
Another feature is traffic manager. I am able to set specific bandwith for different types of use such as, high priority 80%-100% bandwith for gaming, medium priority badwith 70%-90% for HD media streaming/data transfer, and 50%-80% low bandwith for casual web surfing. It also has it's own "beamforming" so that data isn't free roamed.
Lastly it has AiCloud sync which is basically like having a hard drive into your router but, much like having a Dropbox at the same time.
More or less I think I'll stick with the ASUS router rather than going with the new Airport Extreme. I think that it's more on firmware issue than it is hardware. If you are not willing to switch to another brand and want to keep staying with Apple, I recommend going back to the 5th generation until a new firmware or rebuilt 6th gen extreme is out.
I have not found any problem with the ASUS router and no intermittent connectivity issues.
Now I am not trying to make you buy the ASUS router. I'm merely expressing how great the product is.
I do have 60 days from Best Buy return policy to try out the ASUS (and report of any malfuntions) and if within that time a new firmware is out for the Extreme. I highly doubt I'll go back to the extreme though.
Hope this helped!! -
Apple TV3 dropping connection from iTunes...
Hi there,
I've read a lot of issues on the same thing but I wonder if anyone is having the same issue as me.
Thinking it was a hardware problem I secured a replacement from the store but I'm having the same issue.
I have a PC, Windows 8
BT Infinity (with their home hub, I'm UK based)
My Apple TV is wired directly to the hub (I have also adjusted the settings to give the Apple static IP addresses, I've also tried it with automatic IP)
If I boot everything up from scratch the Apple TV will play both music and my movies (both my DVD rips and those purchased from iTunes store and downloaded to the PC).
However, let's say when I've done the above I decide to watch a movie that is on the PC, it works and I can watch the full film or even a TV program. Then I decide I want to watch another film after viewing that one, that's when I get the spinning wheel. The Apple TV will recognise my iTunes library and display the movies but unless I watch something on the cloud I cannot view what's on my PC hard drive. Then after a bit the Apple is telling me to turn on home sharing. It already is on and my PC has no sleep settings activated, I turned them all off so unless I power down nothing will enter sleep mode or even powersave.
I then have to reboot the PC and open iTunes again.
Like I mentioned I've taken the first one back for an exchange, the same problem persists. I've also been on the phone to Apple who advised to power everything down for 5 minutes then turn the router back on followed by the Apple then the PC. That worked, so I then left it for 5 minutes and then the problem happened again when I decided to watch a film that I put on my PC hard drive. It seems that I have to choose what I want to do quickly but it wont work with further requests after something is played.
I am using the inbuilt virus checker that comes with Win 8 (Elements I think it's called) and I use Windows Firewall. I have tried creating a rule to allow iTunes to connect out on the firewall settings but this did nothing. I've tired automatic IP addresses and now trying static ones but again, no joy. Bonjour has been uninstalled, reinstalled, opened up connections in the firewall, basically everything I've read on this issue I've done.
I read somewhere about turning off the Dolby Stereo, and yes, you guessed it, nothing corrected it.
Has anyone had this problem exactly and any idea how to overcome it. Apple have suggested a clean reinstall of my PC, so I tried it, wiped everything and started again. Nothing, so I tried it on my laptop which has Windows 7 and it seems it's not localised to just one specific version of Windows.
Getting a bit fed up now!
As a last ditch attempt I also checked the serial number to see if it was an old unit that needed to be replaced but it's not. Oh, and I have also tried wireless and wired. That didn't change anything.
One interesting thing though, when looking at the settings for the BT Home Hub and looking at devices, when I know the Apple TV is connected it's showing as not connected. It appears as though it is dropping connection after it has perhaps synced the whole film from the PC. I can't think of a way to force it to stay connected.
Any suggestions?UPDATE
This is now resolved, not with the use of the Homehub though.
After another conversation with Apple they asked me if the Youtube app on the TV works, which it does then there's a problem elsewhere! Therefore Apple think there's an issue with the hub or the home network. They also asked me to try something on the hub called Port Forwarding. However, because that the hub isn't an Apple product they are not allowed to advise me on tinkering with the settings. But did suggest to Google a website called port forwarding.
Having a look at that I tried what it suggested by connecting to the BT Homehub, you guessed it, that didn't work either. I called BT who advised that their technical help team that would deal with this has been disbanded and the person I spoke to gave me the port forwarding suggestion on Google.
At this stage I had had enough and after reading a few more bits of feedback I then looked at replacing the hub with something I could buy myself. This led me to Amazon where I purchased the ASUS RT-N56U and a modem to go with it. I ripped out the hub and linked the modem to the line in the wall and the router to the modem, I had to bridge the router to the modem and after that was done I set up the wireless.
I'm now very pleased to say that it works, everything is syncing as it should do and the speeds of my downloads have also increased. So far no issues at all. I also have a constant connection to the PC and can view as many films as I want that are downloaded to the PC. No lagging, no problems at all.
Bit of an expensive solution but the modem and router I bought can also replace a Virgin one should I change suppliers in the future.
If you follow this solution and are doing it the same with BT just Google the username for the hubs as it's the same for everyone, you can get that username from the hub if you connect to it but if you're like me and didn't think of that all the solutions you can google. I used the CD's that came with the items and I had it all set up and running in 5 minutes. If you do purchase the RT-N56U don't forget you need a modem, as that bit I forgot about and then had to order that via Amazon as well.
That's really all you need! -

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
First, just confirming that you realize you can always access your AOL email account by going directly to www.aol.com from the Safari browser (or Firefox, Chrome, etc.) until you get the Apple Mail problem fixed.
If you cannot connect directly through a browser, it's quite possible that AOL is doing maintenance or having a temporary problem. It happens with surprising frequency to most online hosts. I usually check downrightnow.com, but AOL is not one of the services for which they collect trouble reports.
Reconnecting your Apple Mail to your AOL account:
In the Apple Mail menubar, click on the Mailbox, Get New Mail, and highlight the AOL account.
You should see the 'spinning wheel' next to the account name for a moment while your AOL mail is retrieved.
That should successfully reconnect you.
Occasionally my ISP seems to corrupt a few packets and I'll get a message that all my external email account password are rejected, and asks me to re-enter them. Instead of re-entering passwords, I click 'cancel', and use this same procedure to re-connect.
NOTE: I'm on Snow Leopard OS X 10.6, and Mail 4.5 (1084) but I believe the process to reconnect did not change since OS X 10.5 Leopard. -
On the subject of dropped connections..
I have a MBpro 15" CD. I also have a Netgear WGT624 and two WG602v3 (access Points).
I use the 602's to bridge a connection to my living room which has almost no signal when connecting with the WGT624, due to distance issues. Furthermore, I needed a signal boost for my TIVO's USB Netgear wirless adaptor.
Here is what I have noticed:
When connected to the WGT624 I never drop a signal even when I have almost no signal left due to distance from router. However, when connecting to my WG602, the MB drops the signal every 10 min or so, even if i have full signal. My TIVO which is connected exclusively to the same WG602 does not experience dropped signal issues.
I had read about the sudden dropped connections from other MBpro users but I never experienced one untill recently because I almost never connected to the internet using my WG602.
From what I understand there is no solution for the sudden dropped connection. Changing routers will most probably solve your dropped signal issues. I think it's rather sad that one has to resort to that, but hey, if apple wont solve the problem, you have to....
MB Pro 15" CD Mac OS X (10.4.8)Or there is Thunderbird, another free e-mail client which works very well.

Good day to all!
My WRT110 drops connection from time to time, once or twice at random per evening + when one of my other PCs boot up.
I have a Synology DS209 NAS wired, a broadband internet connection (through a modem) and several PCs on wireless. In this situation the problem is reproducable: I have connection on PC 1, and when I boot any of the other PCs, the connection drops for 5 minutes (both internet and to my NAS) on all connected systems. After these 5 minutes, every system connects again. All systems have DHCP switched on, and all systems have different IPs just before this happens. I have done a "back to factory defaults" and power cycles, but the problem stays.
When I look with Vistumbler (or NetStumbler), I see drops from 90% signal to 0% once per -say- 5 minutes and irregular.
Do I have a defective router?
Thanks for an answer....

my e4200 updated with latest 1.00.1 firmware is constantly dropping connections from the outside to existant lan servers running low traffic services when my machine is using torrent or internet gaming.( call of duty modern warfare )
anyone else with that behavior ?
when will cisco fix this ?
cheerslordgrinz,
I believe you. I just wanted to point out there are many users not experiencing issues (given their needs and the features they use). Given this, there are perhaps specific scenarios / setups under which the issues occur, some of which may not be Cisco's fault (software or hardware conflicts with equipment from other manufacturers).
For example, when I used my Rosewill wireless utlity (came with my 802.11n USB adapter), it conflicted with something that caused the E4200 to stop broadcasting wireless / lock up on the wireless side.
I stopped using the Rosewill utlity and the issue has not happened again in over a week (I reproduced the issue by reenabling the utlity at one point and within two days I experienced the same problem again).
It also did not happen the first few weeks when I was not using the Rosewill utlity and had occurred another time when I used it right after getting the router (i.e. during the 2 periods of time during which the utility was disabled I had zero issues and the two times I turned the utility back on, the problem occurred again.
(I only liked the Rosewill utility for it's advanced view of wireless networks in my area, including their exact signal strength, channel etc. I think SSIDer, as an alternative, provides this anyway).
That is just one example.
I am not saying the E4200 does not have flaws (I believe there are some documented DHCP issues that some have experienced etc.).
I am only saying that with my setup and the features I use, my E4200 has been rock solid. -
PORT_ACCESS Configuration to accecpt inbound mail from 1 IP address
I have a inbound mail proxy that relays imbound mail to my final destination iMS5.2 mail server, for this reason I want to block all un-autheticated inbound connections to my iMS5.2 server except for the IP address of the mail proxy(s).
It seems the way to do this is through edits to the PORT_ACCESS mapping table.
My default looks like so
PORT_ACCESS
*|*|*|*|* $C$|INTERNAL_IP;$3|$Y$E
* $YEXTERNALWhat I think will do as I require would look like this.
We do not allow users of our sub-net to send outbound mail in an unauthenticated manner, so I think these rules will not affect authenticated users.
PORT_ACCESS
*|*|*|*|* $C$|INTERNAL_IP;$3|$Y$E
TCP|*|25|212.115.144.233|* $Y
TCP|*|25|*|* $N500$ Not$ Inbound$ MX.
! * $YEXTERNAL Since the last rule of the origional enabled all inbound connections, the dropping of the line with the additional 2 filtering linnes should do what I want.
Thou I'm not quite sure about the meaning of the $YEXTERNAL key word line, this seems to accept from all "*" sources (accept as designated by the "$Y"), as to the meaning of the terminating "EXTERNAL" Keyword, I'm not sure of the meaning.
-LeeI would set up a test box, and test. The documentation for port access is somewhat foggy to me, too . . .

Configure postfix to accept inbound mail only from Google
I like to host my own email on a Mac Mini running OS X Server. I’ve also looked for solutions that allow filtering out SPAM before the mail gets sent to my server. For many years I used Postini’s spam filtering service to clean incoming email before Postini forwarded the mail on to my server. I now use Google mail, part of Google Apps service to remove spam and to archive all the mail.
The approach of letting Google clean emal before sending the mail on to my OS X Server uses two domains, one a “public” domain for incoming email and another a “private” domain used only for forwarding the filtered email to OS X server.
All went well with the defult Postfix configuration that came with OS X Server for a few months, then SPAM started creeping into my “private” domain as various spammers discovered my private email address and started sending mail directly to the Mac Mini, bypassing Google.
Whenever I had spare time I would search the web looking for how to configure Postfix on OS X server so that email from Google and my other machines would be accepted and all other email would be blocked. There were lots of write-ups on how to relay outgoing email to Google, but I couldn’t find straightforward configuration instructions for configuring Postfix to only allow incoming email forwarded by Google or coming from my machines and block all other sources.
With a Google apps account you get telephone support so I gave Google a call and within a few rings got a very pleasant guy who listened to what I wanted to do and didn’t have the configuration setup, but did offer to send me a document showing the blocks of IP addresses used by Google for sending email.
I’ve posted several requests for help doing this type of configuration and never received responses that made sense. So in the interest of helping anyone else that wants to configure Postfix to accept connections from a set of specific IP addresses and refuse connections from all other connections for inbound email, here is what will get you going:
Use your favorite text editor to edit the Postfix configuration file (I use BBEDIT) but use whatever you like.
On the OS X Server open this file:
/Library/Server/Mail/Config/postfix/main.cf
Immediately do a “save as…” to make a backup copy with a different name, such as …mail.df.back1 in the same directory so you can revert to the backup if necessary.
substitute your domain names in the following commands:
public.com - change to your publicly advertised routable domain
hidden.com - change to your OS X Server routable domain
lan.com - change to your OS X Server lan domain, should be registered to make things clean and shouldn’t be .local
10.6.18.0/24 - change to your LAN subnet
host - change to your host name
Your Postfix configuration file should contain these commands (and probably more). Each situation varies so do what you have to for your situation….
Have Postfix add your public domain name in the email header
myorigin = public.com
mydomain_fallback = localhost
message_size_limit = 41943040
biff = no
aaa.bbb.ccc.ddn - Your publicly routable IP addresses provided by your ISP
Let Postfix know your LAN network, the routable addresses you have from your ISP, and the Google networks where the Google email servers live. Get the latest list of Google networks hosting email at this address: https://support.google.com/a/answer/3070269

This config file should do the job of keeping out everyone but the Google email servers and devices on your WAN and LAN.
Any suggestions to make this better or more efficient welcomed!After a few telnet tests I can answer my own question: It makes an open relay server to spammers! But to solve the former issue with the connection refuse, I had to switch to virtual hosting in the advanced tab of the mail service and add my own domains.

MacBook Pro, late 2011 version. Up to date Mountain Lion.
My email account in the Mail.app is set up as IMAP, but when I delete emails in the Mac Mail App, they are not deleted from the mail clients of the other devices that are connected to the mail server with IMAP. IMAP works perfectly between Windows Outlook 2010, iPad Mail App and Android default mail client. Deleted messages behave correctly, as in delete from one device and the mail is deleted from all devices.
Having just tested in reverse order on the Mac; emails deleted from the email client on Windows, iPad and Android are not deleted in the Mac Mail App. It appears that the account is behaving like POP rather than IMAP.
Any advice on how to have IMAP work correctly on the MacBook Pro Mail.app?
Thank you.Hi Csound1, thanks. The email host is 1and1.co.uk, however, i am going to fess up and make myself look like a plonker now -
the email account in question was set up in Outlook as POP - stupid, stupid, stupid me, wasted an afternoon on this! I have now changed the Outlook account to IMAP and Mail.app works perfectly - and looks much nicer than Outlook did. Im in the middle of converting from Windows to a Mac, and still finding my way around the Mac
The lesson learned, never assume - always double check! All my other email addresses with 1and1 are all imap, except this one, and it happened to be the first one I set up in the Mail.app. (bows head in disgrace!)
Thank you anyway for attempting to help me!

Drag and drop files from Outlook move mails to delete box
Hi everybody,
I'm trying to develop a feature to be able to drag one or several mails from Outlook to my Java application.
As Java doesn't recognize a drop of an Outlook mail, in my program, I assume that if it's not a known file type, it is a mail. (I know it's quite straightforward).
When one or several mails are dropped I use a function from a plugin to get detail from the Outlook mails to import them into my application. In fact it import the data from the current selected mails in Outlook. This function is working perfectly when I use it without drag and drop (from a button 'Import' in the application).
My problem is that when I use drag and drop, mails are imported correctly but sometimes (not always) they are also moved in the delete box of Outlook. I have done several tests to try to figure out what is the cause. I have used several versions of Outlook, I have dropped 1 mail and several mails a the same time, etc...
Here are my tests results: it deletes the mails randomly but it seems to delete more often when my Java application isn't in full screen.
What could be the cause?
Another question: is it possible to configure my drop area to do copies only and not move? When you drag and drop you have a small symbol next to your mouse arrow. It is a '+' inside a square for copy and an empty square for move. My drag and drop does move by default. I could maybe avoid my deletion problem by changing it to copy?!
Cheers.
Edited by: Foobrother on Apr 16, 2009 2:46 AMI think I have fixed it. I still have to make more tests, but it doesn't delete the mails any more for the moment.
In fact, when dropped item is detected as a file I do dtde.acceptDrop(DnDConstants.ACTION_COPY);But if it's not, I just set a variable to say that it is an Outlook mail.
So I have added the line dtde.rejectDrop(); to cancel the drop. And now it seems to work.
Apparently, I didn't clean some stuff when doing an email drop and it still wanted to move the mail or something?!
Anyway, thanks for the help -
