Sending Mail in UBUNTU
 

I've just installed UBUNTU and Nagios on an extra box i had. I got nagios up and running and the notifications are going to the mail log but they aren't getting emailed out.

Here's my postfix/main.cf

myhostname = monitor1.company.local
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
myorigin = /etc/mailname
mydestination = mail01.company.local, monitor1.company.local, localhost.company.local, localhost
relayhost =
mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8 [::ffff:127.0.0.0]/104 [::1]/128
mailbox_size_limit = 0
recipient_delimiter = +
#inet_interfaces = all
inet_interfaces = localhost
relay_domains = monitor1.company.local


When it attempts to send out the mail log is writting this:

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

are you sending to a remote domain?
it's not your postfix not sending, it's the remote server not accepting

if i review the logs i get what i posted earlier. When i tried to telnet to the mail server over port 25 it was successful. I set the receiver connection (this morning) for verbose logging to try to track it down further. i do see where the connection is trying but it's giving some messages that i'm not aware of what they are yet (researching the numbers now).

does sending to that email address using: "sendmail mail@domain.com < /dev/null" work?

can you post the mail sending command you use with nagios?

i still get nothing when i use that command. nagios is configured to send it when the monitors are tripped, however the one i've been testing with is
echo "mail test" | mailx =s "testing" user@mydomain.net
