postfix-queue / Queue file write error is still happening

[IgorG]

I have received following suggestion from developers:

Please try next steps:
1. Exclude postfix-queue proxy from /etc/postfix/master.cf:
find string "smtp inet n - - - - smtpd -o smtpd_proxy_filter=127.0.0.1:10025"
and change a port 10025 -> 10026

2. monitor a log file /usr/local/psa/var/log/maillog and grep on strings that contains smtp status like: "lost connection after DATA". In most cases such strings must to be exists. This strings are means what connection was closed by native smtpd server and before-queue processor was closed by smtpd. It's normal. And may to be caused by wrong smtp clients. (e.g. spambots).

3. Let me know if logfile is clean from similair records. Possible it is bug in before-queue.

What is going to happen when i exclude 10025?

Shall i also change smtps & submission lines as well?

Thanks,

Ahmed

You are right, Plesk has the potential to rule everything but lately they seem to grab the money and drink cocktails.

Give us postfix-queue source code. There is no trade-secret inside this crappy piece of software, except if you want to hide some dirty programming.

LOL... but i agree with you :beer:

I don't have this in my main.cf...

nb: why can't we quote the quotes of a post?

 

[IgorG]

Did you tried

# grep smtpd_proxy_filter /etc/postfix/master.cf

?

 

[GravuTrad]

It works:

smtp inet n - - - - smtpd -o smtpd_proxy_filter=127.0.0.1:10025
smtps inet n - - - - smtpd -o smtpd_proxy_filter=127.0.0.1:10025 -o smtpd_tls_wrappermode=yes

but how to modify it if i don't find it in the file?

smtp inet n - - - - smtpd -o smtpd_proxy_filter=127.0.0.1:10025
smtps inet n - - - - smtpd -o smtpd_proxy_filter=127.0.0.1:10025 -o smtpd_tls_wrappermode=yes

This line exists in file if you can find it with grep.

 

[GravuTrad]

Finded, i was looking in the wrong file.

Do we do the same thing for smtps line? (last one)

i've done all.

the same message lots of time in the maillog:

"status=deferred (delivery temporarily suspended: lost connection with 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1] while receiving the initial server greeting)"

Looks like you have some Postfix misconfiguration there. I suggest you contact Support team. They will check it directly on your server and fix it.

 

[GravuTrad]

and what's the postfix command to resend mails that are in the file queue please? thanks.

same question for qmail...

 

[GravuTrad]

After a /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/mchk the file queue reworks. I'll check if i still get this queue file error problem. (i'll try to see if the change of port was useful, but why this?)

But the commands to resend mail queue will be useful....

 

[IgorG]

force qmail to send all in queue:

# kill -ALRM `ps ax | grep qmail-send | grep -v grep | awk '{print $1}'`

For postfix:

# postqueue -f

 

[GravuTrad]

Thanks igor.

I'll keep you informed if the bug still comes (i don't believe for the moment, test time)
