I am having a hard time getting postfix to work.

I am trying to use privateemail as a relay host.

my master.cf file

Code:

submission inet n       -       n       -       -       smtpd
  -o syslog_name=postfix/submission
  -o smtpd_tls_security_level=encrypt
  -o smtpd_sasl_auth_enable=yes
  -o smtpd_tls_auth_only=yes
#  -o smtpd_reject_unlisted_recipient=no
#  -o smtpd_client_restrictions=$mua_client_restrictions
#  -o smtpd_helo_restrictions=$mua_helo_restrictions
#  -o smtpd_sender_restrictions=$mua_sender_restrictions
#  -o smtpd_recipient_restrictions=
  -o smtpd_relay_restrictions=permit_sasl_authenticated,reject


created a saslpass
Code:
 [mail.privateemail.com]:587 myusername:mypassword

ran postmap /etc/postfix/saslpass

this is whats in mail.log


Code:

Dec  5 17:58:50 servix postfix/pickup[20228]: 6FB6E20000: uid=0 from=<root@servix.giftboundgifts.com>
Dec  5 17:58:50 servix postfix/cleanup[22213]: 6FB6E20000: message-id=<20201205225850.6FB6E20000@servix.localdomain>

Dec  5 17:58:51 servix postfix/qmgr[20229]: 6FB6E20000: removed


How do I fix this? Am I missing something?

Hi,
coderanger is right. The relay server is bouncing the mail. It looks like your host is generating the mail (thus the root@servix.giftboundgifts.com address), so you are left with 2 options:

1. If you use for example mailx to send the mails, there is an parameter (-r) to set the sender address correctly.
2. You could do the following in /etc/postfix/generic:

Code:

 # vi /etc/postfix/generic
 ...
 root@servix.giftboundgifts.com sales@giftboundgifts.com


After saving the file, don't forget to run postmap on the generic file and restart postfix.

The second solution is not to best, since it will send all server generated mails from the root account with the address of the sales account.
