hi

I am trying to run postfix.

I was able to send mail, when i uses as domainname my domainname:
innerebner.net. But when I was changed that name I got following error:

Nov 1 12:02:16 mail postfix/qmgr[11842]: AC5A76400AF: removed
Nov 1 12:02:46 mail postfix/smtp[11854]: connect to
sentry.domainbank.com[64.85.73.28]: Connection timed out (port 25)
Nov 1 12:02:46 mail postfix/smtp[11854]: CCD4A640092:
to=<root@domain.com>, orig_to=<root@mail.territoriumonline.org>,
relay=none, delay=30, status=deferred (connect to
sentry.domainbank.com[64.85.73.28]: Connection timed out)
Nov 1 12:03:16 mail postfix/postfix-script: stopping the Postfix mail
system

So I am asking me, why postfix is trying to connect to that url
sentry.domainbank.com.

Any ideas or hints

thanks

It was probably just coincidence that this happened during the
time frame when you changed the domain name.

I tried it on my system, and it took a very long time to connect up
to 64.85.73.28 25 (sentry.domainbank.com). And then, it just sits
there without providing a SMTP welcome banner.

Looks like their system has problems.

Hi Greg,

Thanks for your answer.
I am asking me, why postfix is trying to connect to that host, because I
did not specify nowhere neither that host nor that ip.

In my situation my (working) domain is innerebner.net and the mailserver
there is with the same name: mail.innerebner.net (which is probally an
alias)

With the other url (not working) the domain is territoriumonline.com
but they do not have there own mailserver, nor an alias


regards Markus

The email was originally addressed to
root@mail.territoriumonline.org. But somewhere it
got aliased to root@domain.com:


Nov 1 12:02:46 mail postfix/smtp[11854]: CCD4A640092:
to=<root@domain.com>, orig_to=<root@mail.territoriumonline.org>


The mail exchanger (MX) for domain.com is listed in DNS as
sentry.domainbank.com [64.85.73.28]

Ok, I think I understand the problem. Probally my mysql account has that
values. I will go to check it out and let you know ASAP.

thanks

Hi Greg

In fact, I had that alias domain.com in the mysql table.

thank you very much for your advice.
