I am working with 10.3.9 and have found my server on a black list. However to get off of it they need to send a message to either postmaster@domainname or abuse@domainname. I attempt to send an email to either of these accounts for my yahoo account to test it and when I check my smtp log it goes first to root@domainname and then orig=abuse/postmaster@domainname. Depending on the account i’m using. I never get the message at either abuse or postmaster. what is going on and how can I get this to work, so I can get removed from this black list. Thanks.
Hey,
You should be receiving mail for these accounts (or root) as your self. Make sure you have done this.
sudo vi /etc/postfix/aliases
You should see the following a few lines down
…
# Person who should get root’s mail. Don’t receive mail as root!
#root: you
…Uncomment the second line and replace “you” with your short name.
Exit and SaveThen run newaliases:
sudo newaliasesExplore the aliases file to understand what you are doing here – it is pretty straight forward.
Try sending a message to root and or postmaster at this point.
