Since recently I have a problem with our multidrop mailbox. The
setup is a bit complicated:
I get mail via a freemail provider (dominik(_dot_)vogt(_at_)gmx(_dot_)de) which
is
automatically forwarded to my work address
(d(_dot_)vogt(_at_)lifebits(_dot_)de).
All mail for lifebits.de is stored in a multidrop mailbox at our
mail providers server. Then, our server polls the mail from the
provider via fetchmail. All mail that can not be delivered is
put into a mailbox called mailtrash.
gmx.de
|
| resent to d(_dot_)vogt(_at_)lifebits(_dot_)de
V
lifebits mailbox on mx.supra-net.net
|
| fetchmail
V
postfix on our server
|
|
V
d.vogt mailbox on our mail server
The .fetchmailrc on the server looks like this (called every 10
minutes via cron):
set syslog
set postmaster mailtrash
defaults timeout 30, protocol POP3, uidl, smtphost localhost, fetchall,
nokeep, pass8bits, fetchlimit 10000
poll mx.supra-net.net localdomains lifebits.de:
user lifebits with pass <password> to * here
Now, this worked well for several month and stopped working about
a week ago. But now, all my mails sent to gmx.de are put in the
mailtrash mailbox. I did not change our fetchmail setup so I'm
quite puzzled what happened. Here are the headers of one mail that
was successfully delivered a while ago and one that failed.
--------------------- successfully delivered --------------------
Delivered-To: luthien(_at_)lifelux(_dot_)lifebits(_dot_)local
Delivered-To: GMX delivery to dominik(_dot_)vogt(_at_)gmx(_dot_)de
From: fvwm-bug(_at_)fvwm(_dot_)org
To: fvwm-workers(_at_)hpc(_dot_)uh(_dot_)edu
Precedence: list

X-Resent-To: dominik(_dot_)vogt(_dot_)mbox2(_at_)gmx(_dot_)de,
d(_dot_)vogt(_at_)lifebits(_dot_)de
X-Fetchmail-Warning: recipient address fvwm-workers(_at_)fvwm(_dot_)org didn't
match any local name
-----------------------------------------------------------------
This happens with all mails sent to (_dot_)(_dot_)(_dot_)(_at_)gmx(_dot_)de,
not only mails
that originate from mailing lists. The correct recipient address
is still present in the X-Resent-To header. A week ago, fetchmail
parsed this header appropriately and forwarded the mail to my
mailbox, but now it forwards it to mailtrash and adds a warning.
It may look a bit strange that "From" and "To" contain the same
address. Actually I sent the second mail to the list myself and -
since people tend to reply to me personally on my mailing list -
set the "From" and "Reply-To" headers to the list address.
Can anybody assist me to get this running again?
Bye
Dominik ^_^ ^_^
