Roundcube Connection To Storage Server

I searched the forums for my title and I am not finding exactly what I am looking for. I am not using a program to send mail, such as Thunderbird or whatever. I simply want to be able to send mail from my Ubuntu 14.04 DESKTOP version for logging. I use a program called Logwatch (used alot in RHEL or CentOS) to monitor the server itself. The program sends mail to the root user account on the machine, which I can check and see, and within the program conf file, I can add an external email address, but it never sends.

I'm familiar with the SMTP concept of sending mail, outgoing mail server authentication, etc. I don't care to run this box as an SMTP server, but I understand that I need some sort of SMTP or MTA program to send mail into the real world. I tried Postfix but couldn't get that to work, and the Logwatch program wants to use sendmail, so I installed that but I am having the same issue. I am sure it is a step I am missing.

I also can't figure out how to get the 'mail' cmd from Terminal to work. I use this command:
Code:

mail -s "test" | /usr/sbin/mail myemail@domain.com

it follows through the subject, CC, body, but when I try to hit either . or CTRL-D, it never sends the email, in fact is does nothing.

I also tried sendmail with this command:
Code:

sendmail -v my@email.com < /dev/null

I was just trying to send a test email. It logs into my SMTP mail server, which I already configured, and it tells me to type out the mail, then end with a "." by itself on a single line. I try this and it just sits there.

I am missing SOMETHING when trying to actually send the mail. I can get it written with subject and body, connected, but it never sends and I am probably missing a / or something.

I did find and follow these instructions, but it still isn't working with sendmail. If I need to go back to Postfix, I can do that, I don't honestly care what I use, I just want some programs such as Logwatch to be able to email me.

Good Morning! I am supporting the coffee and Doritos industry with my frustration with this problem. I have been battling it for two months. I have several Red Hat books, the official Red Hat study guide, and have searched the forums for weeks with no avail. I was wondering if you have ever had this?

I am trying to "telnet server.example.com 25" or telnet in general. Both servers are running on a KVM on the 192.168.122.0/24 network.


[root@server ~]# telnet server.example.com
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: connect to address 127.0.0.1: Connection refused
Trying 192.168.122.191...
telnet: connect to address 192.168.122.191: Connection refused

I can ssh, run NFS, and also run internal postfix e-mails.

IPTABLES IS TURNED OFF ON BOTH CLIENTS

Postfix and Telnet is configured on both clients, with both listening:

[root@server ~]# netstat -tulpn |grep :25
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:25 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 1802/

When I Telnet from client named 'Server' to client named 'ISCSI', tpcdump on client 'ISCSI' gives the following:

19:01:23.579330 STP 802.1d, Config, Flags [none], bridge-id 8000.52:54:00:2e:85:0e.8003, length 43

So, I'm new here. Was thrown into the deepend (read: shallow pool) of linux administration of a few centos 6.5 servers in October, and I've been pretty slow on the uptake. Years of Windows administration and desktop support will do that I guess.

So we have qmail on our prod servers that send out messages for our webapps. Postfix failed last night on a prod server, and it occurred to me that it's happened a few times since I've started, and instead of waiting for clients to tell us, I should be more proactive. I came up with/begged/borrowed/stole a quick script to check to see if postscript was running, and if it was, restart it, and contact us. This was to be run from jenkins.

Quote:
if (( $(ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep postfix | wc -l) > 0 ))
then echo 'Mail is up.'
else echo 'Mail is down! Attempting to restart service...'
service postfix restart
fi
The question was then raised about an unresponsive process (zombies!), and I figured it might be a better idea to use postqueue -q, or mailq to either see a Mailbox is empty, or look for fatal if postfix is off or unresponsive. This is where I ran out of coffee and went over the deep end.

To get this to work, I thought it would be a good idea to run two scripts. One to check if the mail queue is empty, and if not, send up a flag. The next was to run a few minutes later to check and see if the mail queue was throwing up a fatal error, and if it was, throw up a second flag, which sent out an email from jenkins. Incidentally, if the mailqueue were clogged, this would also trigger an alert. Our mailqueue doesn't get a lot of traffic.

First command. Returns then and else statement without issue.
Quote:
if ((mailq | grep 'empty') < 0 ); then echo 'Mail is up.'; else echo 'Mail queue is not empty. Please check mail server'; fi
Second one... Not so much.
Quote:
if (mailq | grep 'fatal') < 1; then echo 'Mail is up.'; else echo 'Mail queue is not empty. Please check mail server'; fi
You can probably suss out what I'm trying to do here, even though I'm not doing it right. Any ideas? I know this is newbie stuff, and I appreciate your taking the time to read this people.

I congifured postfix,dovecot and squirrelmail in my server. Now I am able to send mail from my webmail ( squirrelmail ) to my office email address, while I am trying to reply for that mail I didnt face any error. Mail logs also show that mail has been deleivered. But I didnt get any emails in my inbox, all the folders except inbox( sent, trash and drafts) were working fine. But I dont know what is the issue with inbox. I have checked all the configuration files.
I am using Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS .any one have idea about this issue?

Hi all,

I am trying to configure sendmail on my OEL 6.5 running on VM.

I did below to set it :

1. # yum install m4 telnet mailx
2. # yum install sendmail sendmail-cf
3. # ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep -i sendmail
root 3805 1 0 05:58 ? 00:00:00 sendmail: accepting connections
smmsp 3815 1 0 05:58 ? 00:00:00 sendmail: Queue runner@01:00:00 for /var/spool/clientmqueue

4. # netstat -an | grep :25 | grep tcp
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:25 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN

5. vi /etc/mail/sendmail.mc

From:
DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')dnl

To
dnl DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')dnl

6. # m4 /etc/mail/sendmail.mc > /etc/mail/sendmail.cf

7. # service sendmail restart

8. # vi /etc/mail/local-host-names
oracle.com

Now if I am sending mail from 1 user (root) to other user (oracle)

$ mail -s "Test mail from root" oracle
Hello this is the test mail
.
EOT

and checking mail log under /var/mail/oracle, its passing successfully.

But when trying to send the same from root user to my company outlook account not gtting any mail.

mail -s "Test mail from root" abc.xyz@aaaa.com (trying to send to my outlook account)

Getting below error on /var/log/maillog :

May 13 10:47:47 mydb sendmail[6306]: t4DEllUD006306: from=oracle, size=244, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<201505131447.t4DEllUD006306@mydb.oracle.com>, relay=root@localhost

Please suggest if something I missed out or any other problem

Hi All,
We have some shell scripts which will send emails about backup, alerts etc using mail command. Example.
Code:

echo "Test Mail" | mail -s "Test" me@mydomain.com

I guess the above command just connect port number 25 of our mail server even if we do not define any port number. Now I would like add smtp port number as 587 in all of the bash scripts. I googled for this but could not get whatever I am expecting. So expecting your kind reply to define smtp port number as 587 in all of the bash scripts.

Thanks in advance.

I'm new to Sendmail and I want to be able to grab various stats from the Linux servers that I manage to monitor them.

Sendmail is running on my main Linux server and I can go thru the motions of sending an email to my MS Outlook client, which is what I use at work.

However I never get the email and if I check /var/spool/mqueue, I don't see any email queued up, and if I put a tail -f on /var/log/mail, this is what I'm seeing:

Code:

Feb  3 10:20:38 computername sendmail[31432]: t13GKcri031432: from=cmmiller, size=77, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<201502031620.t13GKcri031432@mailserver.com>, relay=cmmiller@localhost

Not sure what to troubleshoot here, and if anyone can point me to better information, thanks.

hi all,
I'm new here.
I have similar problem with running a C project that uses GLUT/OpenGL graphics...


every run result with the two lines:

Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified

sometimes the graphics works ok sometimes there is an infinite loop, but every execution result with the two lines above.

what is the meaning of these 2 lines?
Is it an Error or Warning?
How can I fix the code?

My guess is that there is a fundamental problem with the graphics Glut Library...Or that I didn't write the MakeFile OK

Please help me, I would extremly appriciate it.

Hello Guys,

Im fairly new to linux and was mucking around with permissions on root the other day and lost my connection via ssh. Now when i try to connect via ssh I get an error 'connection refused'. My system logs show the following:

Starting sshd: /var/empty/sshd must be owned by root and not group or world-writable.
[FAILED]

I gather this is because I changed some permissions on root. Thing is, as Im unable to connect via ssh, how else can I correct this issue? Im desperate as I have some data on there that I dont want to lose.

Thanks
Mark

I have setup postfix in Oracle Linux VM in virtualbox to test simple email sends that I am sending it to my personal email.

I have configured the following in main.cf file

myhostname = abc.testserver.org
myorigin = $myhostname
inet_interfaces = localhost
#relayhost = localhost.localdomain - I have this commented as of now, but I tried with the localhost.localdomain, IP address and none worked. I also do not have my ISP's server details and I also do not want to use it.

I checked the /var/log/maillog and I see the following

Code:

May  4 17:25:37 oim sendmail[31684]: t44LPbKA031684: from=root, size=72, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<201505042125.t44LPbKA031684@localhost.localdomain>, relay=root@localhost
May  4 17:25:37 oim sendmail[31685]: t44LPbSn031685: from=<root@localhost.localdomain>, size=378, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<201505042125.t44LPbKA031684@localhost.localdomain>, proto=ESMTP, daemon=MTA, relay=localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1]
May  4 17:25:37 oim sendmail[31684]: t44LPbKA031684: to=abc@abc.com, ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=30072, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (t44LPbSn031685 Message accepted for delivery)

I can also see the messages in /var/spool/mqueue/. The telnet to the localhost 25 port also works. Is any of the config settings wrong?

Thanks.
