Hi all,

Strange thing: - opensuse11.1 - postfix - squirrelmail

Sending mail out from squirrelmail gives a "Relay access denied" message. Also mailing from the command line with telnet to port25 gives same error. I have mynetworks:

mynetworks = 192.168.1.0/24, 127.0.0.0/8

so what am I missing??

Incoming mail is fine, fetchmail is also working ok.

Logs from your mail server would probably help. Along with postconf -n output

Yep: maillog:

Jun 29 20:10:13 server postfix/smtpd[25652]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from localhost[::1]: 554 5.7.1 : Relay access denied; from= to= proto=SMTP Jun 29 20:10:19 server postfix/smtpd[25652]: disconnect from localhost[::1]

It sees a connect from [::1]. Is IPV6 the enemy here??

Answering my own post: yes, this was the culprit. After adding [::1]/128 to mynetworks it is ok. Thanks for hinting me in the right direction.

postconf -n:
