My rt instance relays its email through another server. Messages coming
from RT are failing
My relay server is not sending the mail and is giving me a 451 error. If I
go to the command line and generate an email it sends this correctly.
RT is version 4.2.2 on ubuntu 12.10 running postfix.
It will handle the incoming mail correctly and create the ticket but when
it sends it out there is this problem.
ANy pointers on where to look for the misconfiguration.

You would need to show a full error message (451 is insufficient, it
means many things) and ideally you would show logs from your relay
server about why you’re being rejected.
Most likely your RT server’s hostname is internal and invalid and is
leaking.

I checked the mail log on my relay server and here is the error
Unfortunately, this points to some sort of problem with mmdf (which is
a very unusual MTA, so there isn’t going to be a lot of expertise on
it).
<-(220 [4]chat2.adphila.org ESMTP (23ca9e33fefa09d99f2e46c526eff526))
Since you publish IP addresses for rt3.adphila.org, it isn’t the
obvious error. Unfortunately, you likely need to look farther up the
mail relay chain since it leaves RT via postfix and then it fails when
trying to pass to another adphila.org server.
