HI BILL.

the zimbra user is the same uid and gid. there is just some confusion with the postfix user..

i have a sneeky feeling that the postfix group is wrong in the /etc/passwd file

somthing dont add up here! -) thanks for your help

Hi ! update, i have just edited the /etc/passwd file and changed the postfix gid to the same as what it is in the groups file
reloaded zcs and it seams now to be sending mail. i will now enable the external network card and see if it pulls in all our mail from our backup MX!!

Ill post again to update all you wonderfull people!

Awesome Wish I had my server in front of and could have checked that ... One to add to my notes Glad you are up and running again

[krolen]

theres just one more thing -( my postfix restrictions dont seam to be working anymore...
following this

RestrictPostfixRecipients - Zimbra :: Wiki

i get

Did you make the change to main.cf.in or main.cf ? main.cf gets overwritten with the contents of main.cf.in when you restart ZCS.

i changed the main.cf and then reloaded postfix. i see a master.cf.in no sign of a main.cf.in


Sorry to be such a pain!

What do you have in /opt/zimbra/conf/postfix_recipient_restrictions.cf ? Mine contains

reject_non_fqdn_recipient
permit_sasl_authenticated
permit_mynetworks
reject_unauth_destination
reject_unlisted_recipient

I guess you have done a postmap on /opt/zimbra/postfix/conf/protected_recipients ... When you tested that message what is shown in /var/log/zimbra.log ? Did you test it from your local LAN aswell ?
