      can you check on diagnostics table if this ip is listed on pfblocker alias?

      Yes, it's.

      what action did you selected on pfblocker?

      Deny Inbound

      I can see the packets which has been blocked by PFblocker from Dashboard..

        Check the log, it may be coming from more than one ip.

          You are right… there are three ips from one address.

          I blocked them all and it's now OK~

          Thanks for your help~

            Hi,

            In Postfix, is it possible to forward emails to specific servers depending on the recipient email address (not only on the domain) ?

            Thank you

                Hi Marcelloc,

                Can I add the NOQUEUE email address to Whitelist?
                Some of mail server can't pass 'Helo Hostname' check….

                As my understanding, the "access lists" will only work with QUEUE email address.

                Thanks in advance~

                  The noqueue info in log file are for messages that failed during header check.

                  to workaround it,you can:

                  • unselect the helo check on config gui

                  • add the host hello info to /etc/hosts (check if pfsense boot process does not clean this file)

                  • if you really trust the remote domain, add it to mynetworks.

                  But the best way is to ask remote site admin to fix his smtp configuration.

                    Hi,

                    In Search Mail some emails have status "sent" even if it's detected as spam (maillog).
                    And for some other emails status "spam" is obviously correct. :)

                    Any explanation ?

                    Another question :
                    the subject displayed is the original subject of the email. Is it possible to view the modified subject also ?

                    Thanks

                      Are you using mailscanner too? if so, there are som actions that sends the spam message just changing the subject, so the last action of this message_id is sent as postfix sent it to user.

                      the subject displayed is the original subject of the email. Is it possible to view the modified subject also ?

                      Not yet, the databased is filled by maillog file, the subject is logged only when messages arrives.

                        Hi Marcello,

                        I have an IronPort box that's been trying to bounce the same mail to my mail server, on the hour for nearly three days.

                        The sender address is being rejected for obvious reasons:

                        NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from ironport2-out.teksavvy.com[206.248.154.182]: 450 4.1.8 mailman-bounces@localhost.localdomain: Sender address rejected: Domain not found; from= mailman-bounces@localhost.localdomain…

                        I tried to whitelist the server, blacklist it and a bunch of other things but the reject_unknown_sender_domain still kicks in and, becasue it's only a 450 response, they try again an hour later.

                        I thought I'd try "soft_bounce=no" but the GUI won't allow me to set that.

                        I can get soft_bounce=yes by setting soft bounce to "enabled" in the GUI but selecting either "Only in PostScreen" or "Disabled" just clears soft_bounce from main.cf.

                        I thought Disabled should set soft_bounce=no but wanted to ask what you think?/mailman-bounces@localhost.localdomain/mailman-bounces@localhost.localdomain

                          The best way to receive this bounce is to send an email to remote site sysadmin explaining his server misconfiguration.
                          To workaround for this misconfigured server, enable dns forwarder service and add missing domain/host as a Host Override.

                          I thought Disabled should set soft_bounce=no but wanted to ask what you think?

                          postfix documentation says that soft_bounce default value is no, so if it's not declared, then soft_bounce=no.

                          soft_bounce (default: no)
                          Safety net to keep mail queued that would otherwise be returned to the sender. This parameter disables locally-generated bounces, and prevents the Postfix SMTP server from rejecting mail permanently, by changing 5xx reply codes into 4xx. However, soft_bounce is no cure for address rewriting mistakes or mail routing mistakes.

                          Example:

                          soft_bounce = yes

                          att,

                            Hi,

                            My Postfix rejects emails from a server with the error : "Client host rejected: cannot find your hostname"
                            However, the IP address is perfectly resolvable.
                            And in maillog :
                            "warning: ...: hostname domain.net verification failed: hostname nor servname provided, or not known"

                            I tried to add the IP address in MyNetworks, no change.

                            Do you know what is misconfigured ?

                            Thanks

                              The ip address is resolvable, but hostname that server sent on smtp header is?

                              Sometimes this wrong hostname is sent on servername or helo info.

                                postfix says :
                                RCPT from unknown[IP_Address]: 450 4.7.1 Client host rejected: cannot find your hostname
                                The helo is correct and correspond to the IP address when resolved.

                                The hostname in smtp header is the HELO ?
                                If not where can I find it in the log ?

                                Anyway, why is it still rejected while the IP is in MyNetworks ?

                                  even on MyNetworks, the email must be correct.
                                  The mynetworks will allow this ip to relay to any domain.

                                  Add this ipname on dns forwarder host override list and check if it pass the resolv test.

                                      and I would assume that is because it can't find the smtp_tls_CAfile which I also can't find anywhere on the pfsense box, so I can't specify the correct path in my main.cf file.

                                      Any ideas? I'm sure its something simple i missed.  :P

                                          Can you point me in the right direction on how to get these installed? I am familiar with apt and yum in the Linux world, but I don't know how package management works in the freebsd/pfsense world.

                                            Just download the missing libs to /usr/local/lib using fetch cmd on console/ssh and try again.
