Passing Mail through postfix to EIMS

Hello,
I need help in trying to configure my OS X 10.4 server with email services. I am running EIMS (Eudora Internet Mail Server) 3.2 for email services and would like to continue to do so. My problem is that I have some php scripts that need to send email. PHP assumes you are using the sendmail command or equivalent. How do I configure postfix to just pass the email from php to EIMS? Currently postfix realizes it is trying to send mail to the same server and considers it a mail loop and refuses to forward the email to EIMS. (I have also tried the EIMS command line tool baqut it doesn't support the -t option so it doesn't work.)
I would appreciate any advice you have.

Hello,
I have to revisit this topic now because I have changed my server to use open directory and in the process, I had to change the hostname of my server from shenzhenparty to shenzhenparty.com. Now postfix is able to detect a mail loop again.
I have found out that I should be setting up what is called a "Null Client" so that postfix delivers mail to another server and doesn't try to deliver mail to itself. I got the instructions for the null client from here:
http://www.postfix.org/STANDARDCONFIGURATION_README.html#nullclient
The problem is is that I have the EIMS mail server running on the same machine and so when postfix tries to connect to it, it still is able to detect that it is sending to the same machine and thus it refuses to connect to the other mail server as in the log below:

Postfix seems to have an option for everything, doesn't it have an option to disable this loop back check? i have looked through all the options and have not found a way. Below is my postfix configuration in case that helps:

Relay mail through Cisco Spam and Virus Blocker Appliance

I originally tried to add the ip in the relay mail through in the server admin. This didn't work and talked to apple support, did an enterprise capture after they were able to replicate the problem on their machine, and the engineer suggested adding the following line to the /etc/postfix/main.cf file:
relayhost = 192.168.0.000.
I did that and tested sending an email to an outside address but no relay. Does anyone have any other ideas?

relayhost = 192.168.0.000.
I find it extremely unlikely that IP address is valid for your network (or any network, for that matter).
I don't know if you've masked it trying to hide the real address (there's no point since it's a private network address anyway), but just in case that is what you've set, you will need to change that to the actual IP address of the mail appliance.
I did that and tested sending an email to an outside address but no relay.
What do you mean by 'no relay'. Do you mean that the mail server delivered the mail without relaying it through the appliance? Or that the mail didn't get delivered at all?
What do the log files have to say about it?

this is where i created the keystore.jks file
I navigated to the location C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_13\bin in command prompt and typed the following command to create the keystore
keytool -import -trustcacerts -alias root -file mail_test_com.crt -keystore keystore.jksI was asked to set the password for keystore and then i was asked the question "Trust this certificate? [no]:" for which i gave yes.
If this is not the right place to create the keystore.jks can you please tell me what is correct location to create the keystore file.

Stopped recieving mail through Outlook using custom domain..

I had a custom domain through Office small business addition, and have 5 mailboxes that I access through Outlook.com. All accounts have stopped receiving any mail for the last 10 days, though I'm able to send emails just fine. Nothing has changed
on my end, e.g. domain name is active, and no changes to the e-mail client(s). I tried to send a message to one of the affected mailboxes, and here is what happens:
Notification of delayed delivery with no action required
In a couple of days, delivery failure "Unable to deliver message to the following recipients, due to being unable to connect successfully to the destination mail server."
I have looked around the community, and found no helpful information, this is impacting our ability to manage daily communication needs.
Thanks,
P.S. I'm sure this question is better suited for another forum, but the support personal is in disagreement

Thanks for the reply, I'm unable to receive mail through the web interface. I'm accessing this through Outlook.com and so far have found no helpful information to unblock these accounts. Here is a snippet from the bounce:

Sending mail through "local" mail server?

I've set up fetchmail and procmail to download (and delete) mail from my mail host to a ~/Maildir on a server in my home which I then access through dovecot IMAP.
I want to be able to send mail "through" my server too, instead of going straight to my host's smtp. Maybe there isn't any good reason to do this? I want my Sent mail to be stored on my local server. And if set up more than one mail account, it would have to use the right smtp depending on the email address.
Anyone know how they would go about it? I found a handful of dovecot/fetchmail articles, but none that mention sending mail really. There's an oldish looking wiki article on exim, but I feel like I shouldn't need to use system wide conf for this.

Dovecot and fetchmail only handle the mail coming to you (ie, IMAP/POP3). You need SMTP to send email.
I highly recommend Postfix, and set it up to use your ISP's mail server as relay_host

Sending php mail(); using postfix. Authentication failed.

Trying to set up my localhost to send php mail() using postfix.
I did the following:
Created the sasl_passwd file
Created the sasl_passwd.db file
Edited mail.cf in the postfix folder to include relay host: relayhost=smtp.live.com:587
I'm trying to relay through my hotmail account. The mail.log returns the following:
Jan 24 13:17:30 Richards-MacBook-Pro.local postfix/error[927]: E75CCE40EE4: to=<[email protected]>, relay=none, delay=1580, delays=1580/0.07/0/0, dsn=4.0.0, status=deferred (delivery temporarily suspended: SASL authentication failed; server smtp.live.com[65.55.162.200] said: 535 5.0.0 Authentication Failed)
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong here?

Ok problem solved :)
Problem was between oracle and MS exchange server. Live server oracle 9i is on linux, and testing server works on windows.
So the problem was with configuration. Our admins corrected it and now works :). I don't know details.

Sending Mail through Outlook using PL/SQL

I have installed Oracle 9i (9.2.0.1) on Windows Xp with SP 2 platform. My MS Outlook has been configured.
How could i send mail through Microsoft outlook by using PL/SQL Program.

How could i send mail through Microsoft outlook by using PL/SQL Program.Nonsensical question. MS Outlook is a mail client. A PL/SQL program is also a mail client.
Both these need to talk to a mail server. It does not make sense for one mail client to "+talk+" to another client for passing it e-mails that need to be send.
The mail client talks to a mail server using the SMTP ( Simple Mail Transfer Protocol ). There are also other protocols such as IMAP (open standard) and MAPI (Microsoft proprietary).
Oracle's PL/SQL environment by default supports SMTP via the UTL_SMTP, and UTL_MAIL packages - these provide the PL/SQL developer with an interface to use to send e-mails.
MS Outlook (client) does not feature anywhere in this regard, whereas MS Exchange as a mail server will (assuming it is being used on your network).

I cannot send an email from my iPad 2? No problem receiving, why does this happen? Have tried the suggestions for setting up email and after doing the sync mail through iTunes receiving worked great but still cannot send? Any help would be great

I cannot send an email from my iPad 2? No problem receiving, why does this happen? Have tried the suggestions for setting up email and after doing the sync mail through iTunes receiving worked great but still cannot send? Any help would be great!

The fact that you can receive means you have a valid e mail address, and have established the connection to the incoming server, so all of that works. Since the send does not work, that means your outgoing server is rejecting whatever settings you used formthe outgoing set up. Try them again.
Google your particular isp, and ipad and many times you will find the exact settings needed for your isp. Or tell us here, and soneone else may be on the same isp. Some mail services need you to change a port, or have a unique name for the outgoing server.
Kep trying.

Does my MacBook passes audio through Mini Display Port or not?

I recently bought a Mini DisplayPort > HDMI adapter in order to display my MacBook on my TV. Other users of the same adapter publicly stated that they got video AND audio out, but I got only video.
I've been searching this online for two days now and I still don't know why (I even searched this support forum, but I must admit that I got a little lost and decided to write my own topic). All I discovered was that some MacBooks have this capacity (to port audio along with video through Mini DisplayPort) and others don't.
I'm using a white MacBook unibody bought new and latest on late 2009. It's the first model with multitouch trackpad and without FireWire port. Its model name is "MacBook 6,1", I guess.
Does anybody know for sure if It CAN, in fact deliver audio+video through the Mini DisplayPort if I'm using a compatible HDMI adapter?
Thanks.

These models pass audio through the display port:
iMac (Late 2009), MacBook Pro (Mid 2010), MacBook (Mid 2010), and Mac mini (Mid 2010) supply multichannel audio (up to 8 channels) and video signals over Mini DisplayPort. To connect your television or other HDMI devices to your Mac, use select third-party Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapters that conform to the VESA v1.1a DisplayPort Interoperability Guidelines. The following adapters adhere to these standards:
- Moshi Mini DP to HDMI Adapter with Audio Support
- Griffin Video Display Converter (Mini DisplayPort to HDMI and DVI)

How to get my mail through without opening the mail app...

Hi
I have a tendancy to when ive finished using with my apps on my Mac I always go to top left and press quit itunes or quit mail etc
if i do that to mail, obviously when a email comes through i dont get it straight through unless the mail program is open (like on my iphone, if an email comes it just comes straight through)
what im asking is, is there a way for me to get my mail through straight away whilst the mail program is open? - thing is I like things tidy and dont like all these programs left open
also what is the point of the red X in the top left corner?, if im on a website on safari and I press the X, safari is still open isnt it, but if i click back onto safari to re open the app it just goes to the homepage
so really what is pressing the red X on the top left and quitting the app altogether, what is the difference?

Mail has to be open to receive the new mail notification.
Clicking the red x button just closes the window, does not quit the application.
To quit the application, you have to select "Quit......" from the application menu.
When an application is open, a white light indicator will be shown under the application icon in the Dock.

I have an iPad 2 and receive e-mail through internet connection. When I delete e-mails, and clear my Trash folder, they re-appear. Setting are for remove from server when moved from Inbox. Any idea what I can do to actually delete them?

I have an iPad 2 and receive e-mail through regular internet connection. Lately, when I delete e-mails, and clear my Trash folder, they re-appear, downloaded anew from the server and marked as unread. My e-mail Advanced Settings are selected for "Remove from server when moved from Inbox." Even when I access the e-mail accountfrom my desktop and delete the e-mails, the re-appear on my iPad. Does anyone have any idea what is causing this and what I can do to actually delete them?

Sounds like you are looking in the wrong Administrative Group container which is why you are seeing your Exchange 2010 servers in there.
When you install Exchange 2003 only you will see a container named by default as "CN=First Administrative Group" container. But this could be named anything if you changed the Organization Name on the installation when you installed the first
Exchange 2003 server into the domain/forest.
You will notice that when you install Exchange 2010 part of the AD setup is to create a new configuration container and is named by default "CN=First Administrative Group (FYDIBOHF23SPDLT)".
So it sounds like you are not looking in the right location within ADSIEdit.
You may find the following article also helpful for this issue which is the same resolution:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/sbs/archive/2012/05/17/empty-cn-servers-container-causing-issues-with-public-folders-on-small-business-server-2011.aspx
I recommend though that you ensure your Exchange 2003 servers are fully uninstalled or no longer present in your environment before you go deleting the Servers container though.. The following Microsoft article will help with this:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/gg576862(v=exchg.141).aspx

Pass parameter through standard page "import xml content and actions"

Dear Portal experts,
As you know, a standard portal page is configured to allow the import of XML file. It is located in the portal in the path system admin -> transport -> xml content and actions -> import
I configured a quick link u201Cimportu201D to the page so now the link http://myserver:port/irj/portal/import allows me to access directly to this screen.
What I would like to do now is to pass the parameter related to u201Cfile nameu201D through this screen meaning that I would like that http://myserver:port/irj/portal/ import/filename=C:\test.xml fills automatically the fields u201CXML fileu201D with C:\test.xml
Please do you know how to achieve this ?
Thank you very much and regards

hi,
@Maksim :
When user launch an URL like http://myserver:port/irj/portal/ import/*filename=C:\test.xml, he is requested to provide username and password; as this link is a shortcut for the upload xml page, there is a check of authorization and only portal admin that have authorization and permission on this page/iview will be able to upload xml file through the URL. Hope this clarify.
@Kumar :
thank you for your answer. What a pity to not be able to pass parameter through standard portal page/iview particularly knowing that we can pass paramater through many kinds of iviews (transactional iview, url iview, VC iview...). I explored some option on file com.sap.portal.ivs.init.par but this was unsuccessful. However, thanks to this [link bellow|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/Snippets/ComponenttouploadXMLfilewithPCD+objects], I was able to upload through URL the XML file.
The problem is that I can upload only XML file that are stored in the server not in the local user computer. My requirement is to be able to upload local XML file stored on user's computer.
If someone could provide and idea/solution, I would be very grateful.
Cheers

After trying lots I found now in 'Airport Utility is 'unable to detect any airport wireless devises.....'
There is no provider to be seen in airport utility and only 'rescan' is an option with no results...
even so I am connected and can browse the net receive mail etc. and the outgoing 'mail server' is set to the internet provider I am connected to.
Can you enlighten me what can I do I need to use my e-mail program urgently !!!
Thanks for your help

I'm not sure what "IPS wireless" is, but unless you have an Apple Wi-Fi base station (such as a Time Capsule, AirPort Extreme, or AirPort Express), AirPort Utility won't see anything.
You might try defining a new SMTP server to see if that will work any better.
