Strange error in mail.warn that I can't get rid of though it's removed from main.cf

Nickalf · 05-14-2009, 01:06 PM

Hi fellow Linuxians,

I recently upgraded my Distro to Ubuntu Server v8.04

Though all was fine on the older Distro, I'm now getting hundreds of entries like this in my Postfix mail.warn relating to all my domains

Code:

warning: do not list domain RiverEdgeNJ.org
in BOTH virtual_alias_domains and relay_domains

RiverEdgeNJ.org is exactly how I entered this domain in the virtual_alias_domains line of my main.cf but it also shows

Code:

warning: do not list domain riveredgenj.org
in BOTH virtual_alias_domains and relay_domains

which is not the way I typed it in my main.cf

Is there another place relay_domains is referred to in this Server Distro ?
If not, why would I get this error so many times ?

Thanks,
Nick. . .

If you're using sendmail then relay is defined in the access.db file which is compiled from the access text file.

Hi JLightner,

No, I'm using Postfix ( config file is /etc/postfix/main.cf )

Thanx 4 the comeback,

This man page suggests there is an access and access.dbm in Postfix. Not sure of syntax or if it's even relevant since I don't use Postfix:

http://www.postfix.org/access.5.html

Thanks, but that link doesn't show any reference to "relay_domains" - besides, my system doesn't have either one of those files...

Can you show

postconf -n

Nickalf · 05-17-2009, 10:39 AM

Oops - double posted - this one removed - see below

What does

grep -ir riveredgenj.org /etc/postfix/*

show?

Nickalf · 05-18-2009, 12:03 AM

/etc/postfix/main.cf: RiverEdgeNJ.org,riveredgerotary.org,sex-x.com,smoothpower.com,sosNow.ws,sos-Now.eu,spamik.com,spamic.com,

/etc/postfix/virtual.map: all the eMail addresses of RiverEdgeNJ.org which I'm not going to show here

and

Binary file /etc/postfix/virtual.map.db matches

... none show the lower case riveredgenj.org

billymayday · 05-18-2009, 12:22 AM

Odd.

BTW, why do you have

mydestination = $myhostname + localhost.$mydomain, $mydomain, localhost.net, localhost

rather than

mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, $mydomain, localhost.net, localhost

?

Could you show

postconf -d | grep relay

Nickalf · 05-20-2009, 10:36 AM

I 'have' shown....

billymayday · 05-20-2009, 03:22 PM

Where?

Nickalf · 05-27-2009, 10:04 PM

Sorry - was tired when I missread your question...

I used the line from the previous default main.cf in the older distro.

I'll try it without the + sign and see if that helps, thanks...

Postfix acknowledges virtual domains by virtue of having virtual_aliases. This means that you wont need to define both virtual_alias_domains and virtual_alias_maps. If all your virtual users are mapped in virtual_alias_maps, then you can remove RiverEdgeNJ.org from the virtual_alias_domains
