On a server I run both docker images and a postfix smtp server. The smtp server is accesible via localhost and is not installed in any sort of container.
The problem is that I can send email via terminal using sendemail outside of any container but I cannot send email via terminal running sendemail inside of any container.
The postfix configuration is the following:
# See /usr/share/postfix/main.cf.dist for a commented, more complete version # Debian specific: Specifying a file name will cause the first # line of that file to be used as the name. The Debian default # is /etc/mailname. #myorigin = /etc/mailname smtpd_banner = $myhostname ESMTP $mail_name (Debian/GNU) biff = no # appending .domain is the MUA's job. append_dot_mydomain = no # Uncomment the next line to generate "delayed mail" warnings #delay_warning_time = 4h readme_directory = no # TLS parameters smtpd_tls_cert_file=/etc/letsencrypt/live/ellak.org/fullchain.pem smtpd_tls_key_file= /etc/letsencrypt/live/ellak.org/privkey.pem smtpd_use_tls=yes smtpd_tls_session_cache_database = btree:${data_directory}/smtpd_scache smtp_tls_session_cache_database = btree:${data_directory}/smtp_scache # See /usr/share/doc/postfix/TLS_README.gz in the postfix-doc package for # information on enabling SSL in the smtp client. smtpd_relay_restrictions = permit_mynetworks permit_sasl_authenticated defer_unauth_destination myhostname = guest8.ellak.gr alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases myorigin = /etc/mailname mydestination = mail.ellak.org, guest8.ellak.gr, localhost.ellak.gr, localhost #Virtual alias domains virtual_alias_domains = ellak.org # RELAY Options relayhost = [mail1.ellak.gr]:587 smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes smtp_sasl_security_options = noanonymous smtp_sasl_password_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd smtp_use_tls = yes smtp_tls_CAfile = /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt local_recipient_maps = proxy:unix:passwd.byname $alias_maps smtp_tls_note_starttls_offer = yes #Network Access Options mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8 [::ffff:127.0.0.0]/104 [::1]/128 172.17.0.0/16 mailbox_size_limit = 0 recipient_delimiter = + inet_interfaces = all relay_domains = *
Inside the container I run:
sendemail -s 172.17.0.1:25 -f [email protected] -t [email protected] -u Hello -m Hello
And outputs the following error:
Nov 27 19:51:14 7e56b4e22e09 sendemail[1988]: WARNING => The recipient <[email protected]> was rejected by the mail server, error follows: Nov 27 19:51:14 7e56b4e22e09 sendemail[1988]: WARNING => Received: 454 4.7.1 <[email protected]>: Relay access denied Nov 27 19:51:14 7e56b4e22e09 sendemail[1988]: ERROR => Exiting. No recipients were accepted for delivery by the mail server.
On the postfix logs I get are:
Nov 27 21:42:54 guest8 postfix/smtpd[14979]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from unknown[172.18.0.5]: 454 4.7.1 <[email protected]>: Relay access denied; from=<[email protected]> to=<[email protected]> proto=ESMTP helo=<7e56b4e22e09> Nov 27 21:42:54 guest8 postfix/smtpd[14979]: lost connection after RCPT from unknown[172.18.0.5] Nov 27 21:42:54 guest8 postfix/smtpd[14979]: disconnect from unknown[172.18.0.5] Nov 27 21:46:14 guest8 postfix/anvil[14982]: statistics: max connection rate 2/60s for (smtp:172.18.0.5) at Nov 27 21:42:54 Nov 27 21:46:14 guest8 postfix/anvil[14982]: statistics: max connection count 1 for (smtp:172.18.0.5) at Nov 27 21:42:41 Nov 27 21:46:14 guest8 postfix/anvil[14982]: statistics: max cache size 1 at Nov 27 21:42:41
Do you have any sort of Idea how I will send emails inside docker containers?
