Fetchmail is retrieving it but postfix keeps not processing for some reason. Im geting these error message: May 2 17:14:11 wadesmart postfix/qmgr[14778]: 6D4AD14286F3:
So my question is, I know that dovecot only serves up email to a mail client but, does it do something that I have totally missed that would some how or some way refer mail back to a server? Is there some type of address check or something going on?
- you have errors in your postfix configuration.
- postfix cant deliver mail (what transport you are using? postfix virtual? dovecots LDA? some other?)
- error in delivery produces bounce messages. sender receives mail, notifying about delivery error.
I tried to help Wade, but got in over my head.
I'm sure it is a postfix config issue too, but don't know how to resolve it.
Some particulars about his usage:
- His postfix is NOT authoritative for his domain - he is just using it with fetchmail to grab his email. Since I've never even used fetchmail
- does he even NEED postfix to do this?
- All he wants to be able to do is pull all of his mail from where it is being hosted, down to a local maildir setup that is served by dovecot...
I hope someone here can help him, because I'd like to know how to do this myself...
