Full Discussion: Postfix SPF DNS problem
Special Forums IP Networking Postfix SPF DNS problem Post 302351806 by jakethecake on Wednesday 9th of September 2009 03:36:26 PM
Old 09-09-2009
Postfix actually got uninstalled while I was adding the spf records, no wonder I couldn't connect to the postfix server. I can connect now but the emails sent to outside my network aren't being delivered, only the ones sent inside the network. And the clients are still able to send even though only the server is supposed to be. mail.log says:

Code:
server postfix/qmgr[2561]: warning: connect to transport smtp: Connection refused

Maybe that's because the spf record is wrong, do you have to install a SPF package to get the record to work, BIND isn't enough?

postfix-add-filter

POSTFIX-ADD-FILTER(8)					      System Manager's Manual					     POSTFIX-ADD-FILTER(8)

NAME

       postfix-add-filter - add filter service to Postfix master.cf

SYNOPSIS

       postfix-add-filter [smtp service name...] [smtpd port...]

DESCRIPTION

       The  postfix-add-filter(8)  command  adds an smtp service named smtp service name and and smtpd server listening on smtpd port to etc/post-
       fix/master.cf to facilitate integration of SMTP filters such as amavisd-new or clamsmtp.  The configuration is based on the upstream recom-
       mendations for amavisd-new 2.6.0.  Adminstrators should verify it is appropriate for their requirements.

       The original file is copied prior to modification and left in /etc/postfix to make it possible to revert changes easily.

       Available in the Debian package for Postfix version 2.5.3 and later.

DIAGNOSTICS

       If  the given smtp service name or smtpd port already appear in the master.cf, a message will be printed to standard out and master.cf will
       not be modified.

ENVIRONMENT

       MAIL_CONFIG
	      Directory with Postfix configuration files.

	      The postfix-add-filter(8) command should use this, but it currently doesn't.  It is hard coded  to  /etc/postfix.   This	should	be
	      changed.

CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS

       None

FILES

       /etc/postfix/master.cf
