I have a RHEL server where I want to create a mail server so I can send myself alerts whenever X process have problems.
Disclaimer:
Im a programmer thats been forced to do IT. So I'm trying my best here.
The problem:
While configuring Postfix it asks for $myhostname which apparently must be in the format hostname.mydomain.com. I do have my $hostname but I dont know the "mydomain" part.
Do "mydomain" is something I create or its something I should get my the networks admins since the server is connected to my company's network?
If you need output from specific commands let me know.
/etc/sysconfig/network and /etc/hosts:
Thanks in advance!

When I connect to any IRC server, it's usually my ISP IP address/hostname. I own a domain, but I'm not using it for anything (no web hosting service or server). Is it possible for me to use my domain as my IRC hostname instead of my regular ISP hostname? (0 Replies)
I'm working on a rather large script atm (it already takes 9 arguments). As such, I need to obtain both a server name and domain from the FQDN. From this, I want to both populate the hostname of the server, as well as the domain line in the /etc/resolv.conf file.
Obviously, this isn't working. I... (10 Replies)

qmqpd
QMQPD(8) System Manager's Manual QMQPD(8)NAME
qmqpd - Postfix QMQP server
SYNOPSIS
qmqpd [generic Postfix daemon options]
DESCRIPTION
The Postfix QMQP server receives one message per connection. Each message is piped through the cleanup(8) daemon, and is placed into the
incoming queue as one single queue file. The program expects to be run from the master(8) process manager.
The QMQP server implements one access policy: only explicitly authorized client hosts are allowed to use the service.
SECURITY
The QMQP server is moderately security-sensitive. It talks to QMQP clients and to DNS servers on the network. The QMQP server can be run
chrooted at fixed low privilege.
DIAGNOSTICS
Problems and transactions are logged to syslogd(8).
BUGS
The QMQP protocol provides only one server reply per message delivery. It is therefore not possible to reject individual recipients.
The QMQP protocol requires the server to receive the entire message before replying. If a message is malformed, or if any netstring compo-
nent is longer than acceptable, Postfix replies immediately and closes the connection. It is left up to the client to handle the situation.
CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS
The following main.cf parameters are especially relevant to this program. See the Postfix main.cf file for syntax details and for default
values. Use the postfix reload command after a configuration change.
Miscellaneous
always_bcc
Address to send a copy of each message that enters the system.
debug_peer_level
Increment in verbose logging level when a remote host matches a pattern in the debug_peer_list parameter.
debug_peer_list
List of domain or network patterns. When a remote host matches a pattern, increase the verbose logging level by the amount specified
in the debug_peer_level parameter.
hopcount_limit
Limit the number of Received: message headers.
qmqpd_authorized_clients
A list of domain or network patterns that specifies what clients are allowed to use the service.
qmqpd_timeout
Limit the time to send a server response and to receive a client request.
soft_bounce
Change hard (D) reject responses into soft (Z) reject responses. This can be useful for testing purposes.
Content inspection controls
content_filter
The name of a mail delivery transport that filters mail and that either bounces mail or re-injects the result back into Postfix.
This parameter uses the same syntax as the right-hand side of a Postfix transport table.
Resource controls
line_length_limit
Limit the amount of memory in bytes used for the handling of partial input lines, and the length of sender and recipient addresses
that are received from client.
message_size_limit
Limit the total size in bytes of a message, including on-disk storage for sender and recipient address information.
Tarpitting
qmqpd_error_sleep_time
Time to wait in seconds before informing the client of a problem. This slows down run-away errors.
