RT-Postfix

#1

anybody here using Postfix as a local delivery agent? Is there any specific
setting in the main.cf that I need to check. I have already setup the
aliases as shown in the “draft manual”.
I have gone through the “draft manual”, looked through the Perldoc writeup,
and searched online. Found nothing.
I am unable to get my mail gate way to work. When I turn on debugging and
look in my log, I get:

Oct 21 11:19:18 iwapps4 postfix/local[12828]: 550FB3F75:
to=rt@iwapps4.iwapps.com, relay=local, delay=5, status=deferred

/opt/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate line 444, <> chunk 1. temporary failure RT server
error. The RT server which handled your email did not behave as expected.
It said: temporary failure )

For inbound messages, I have the following:

aliases:

tickets: “| /etc/smrsh/rt-mailgate --action correspond”
tickets-comments: “| /etc/smrsh/rt-mailgate --action comment”

copy rt-mailgate to the /etc/smrsh directory, with the following
permissions:

[root@xxx postfix]# ls -l /etc/smrsh/
total 12
-rwxr-xr-x 1 postfix postfix 9134 Mar 4 2003 rt-mailgate

and the smrsh directory has permissions:

drwxr-xr-x 2 postfix postfix 4096 Mar 3 2003 smrsh

And in my RT 2 config.pm:

$CorrespondAddress=‘tickets@xxxx.com’;
$CommentAddress=‘tickets-comments@xxxx.com’;
$MailCommand = ‘sendmailpipe’;
$SendmailArguments=“-oi -t”;
$SendmailPath = “/usr/sbin/sendmail”;

I think that’s all I did…

Have you ran the “newaliases” command ?

Also, you are missing the --url http://your.rt.com part in the aliases…From: Tom Lichti [mailto:tom@redpepperracing.com]

Yes, I run that each time I make a change to the aliases file.

All done, (including the -url Tom) the error changed to reflect the change

look like this

You should be changing RT_SiteConfig.pm instead of RT_Config. Copy one over
the other if you were changing the wrong one.

Do you have an error log from your webserver? Look there if everything is
fine.From: Leon Sonntag [mailto:leon@iwa-solutions.com]

Did that.

The Apache log for that virtual just shows normal access using libperl -
exit code 200

That happens if the “–queue” or “–action” parameter in your

THANK YOU, Thank You, thank you…FINALLY something that makes a
difference. The queue I was sending them to existed in an earlier build of
RT but was not recreated in this build. Still doesn’t work but at least
I’m onto the next problem.
