opensmtpd

I've recently set up a small mail server in a FreeBSD jail including OpenSMTPD. One of the anomalies I am seeing is that /etc/periodic/daily/440.status-mailq ends up using 100% of one CPU core indefinitely. Manually running this script also sits at 100% CPU with no apparent output or logging...

Sendmail won't obey me anymore, so I'm trying to replace it with the simpler OpenSMTPd. smtpd.conf says: My Cyrus is working, active, and accepts mail from Sendmail on the following socket: action "cyrus" lmtp /var/cyrus/socket/lmtp Unfortunately, this entry is treated as a syntax error: #...

Hi I updated my mailserver to OpenSMTPD 7.6.0 thats installed inside a ezjail and after a restart smtpd wont start. smtpd -d info: OpenSMTPD 7.6.0-portable starting passwd[77606]: warn: table-api: imsg_get: Result too large lookup: table-proc: unexpected EOF during handshake smtpd: process lka...

I have setup an intranet SMPT/Mail server in a FreeBSD Jail IP: 192.168.0.31 following the instructions in this post https://it-notes.dragas.net/2024/03/08/make-your-own-email-server-freebsd-opensmptd-rspamd-dovecot-part1/ but just not configuring Redis nor an apache server not any form of...

Hello. With Exim, in the alias file, I could do this: foo@bar.com: 550 "Unknown User" to force 550 (or other) errors. With OpenSMTPD, in the "virtuals" table, the same syntax results in a 424 4.2.4 Mailing list expansion problem: <foo@bar.com> ...and not a 550. So the sender will keep...

A client has a number of devices that email a report at the end of the day. Several years ago (2021?) they stopped receiving the emails so, as a favor (they've been a good client), I built a spare FreeBSD server in my office to act as a mail server. It receives the automated messages from their...

Dear FreeBSD users, I am running a mail server with OpenBSD opensmtpd for mail delivery and Dovecot for IMAP access. The server accepts mail for two domains, let's call them domain1 and domain2. Users authenticate against the system /etc/passwd file, meaning they log in to SMTP/IMAP only using...

Hello, I haven't received regular daily root mails for some time now. What is the best way to identify the issue? /etc/mail/virtuals root info@mydomain.com /etc/crontab # /etc/crontab - root's crontab for FreeBSD # # $FreeBSD$ # SHELL=/bin/sh...

I have to install a new mail setup on our office server to replace an old QMAIL + dovecot setup (currently working and in use every day). I created a FreeBSD virtual machine on another office computer so I can get all of my configuration correct before I do it on the real server. I created a...

Hello, I got a problem with local emails on my FreeBSD box after last upgrade of OpenSMTPd 6.6.4p1. Previously it worked well, but now: $ mail -v root Subject: test some message . EOT <<< 220 # ESMTP OpenSMTPD >>> EHLO localhost <<< 250-# Hello localhost [local], pleased to meet you <<<...

I'm trying to figure out how to remove/hide the originating source IP address of every mail being sent using OpenSMTPD (running FreeBSD or OpenBSD)? To do the equivalent in postfix, it would be: http://integer13.wordpress.com/2013/01/03/hide-your-source-ip-with-emails-relayed-by-postfix/...

Hi everyone, Actually I have a rule who do SMTP relay and work nice for one account : accept from source { localhost 192.168.120.0/24 192.168.14.0/24 } for any relay via tls+auth://label@mySMTP:587 auth <secrets> the account is stored on a secret.db file like that : label user:login I...

I successfully set up mail/opensmtpd in a jail running other web services. I set up mail/dkimproxy for mail signing and all, works like a charm. Now, the issue I'm having is that all sent mail has headers like these: Received: from domain.com (domain.com [192.168.1.3]) or Received: from...
