No "Filter address" field on "New bounce filter" form

Post by spanish »

Hello,

I can't view the "Filter address" field, in the "New bounce filter" form.

I only see these fields:

---------------------------------------------------
OpenEMM 2011 -> Administration -> Bounce-Filters -> New bounce filter

Name:
Description (optional):

Forward incoming emails
Address:

Use for subscribe address
Mailing list:
Form for double-opt-in mail:

Autoresponder
Sender address:
Subject:
Text version:
HTML version:
---------------------------------------------------

Is this normal? I need create the "Filter address"?

Thanks!

Manuel

The address (like "ext_1@news.openemm.org") will be automatically generated if you create a new filter.

I noticed the same issue as the poster above described. However, when I create a bounce filter, the generated email shows up as "ext_1@". The sender hostname is missing. I have set up the DNS A and MX records as described, but there is no other mention of configuring the sender hostname in OpenEMM. How do I get the New Bounce Filter to use my sender hostname?

See install guide, section 9.2.

I've been through section 9.2 of the Installation manual several times and I'm still trying to understand it. The manual describes updating the DNS with the various hosts and MX records and so forth. And I've done that. But I don't see any discussion of how OpenEMM knows which domain should be used for the filter address. Where should this be configured in OpenEMM?

A quote from the install guide (section 6.2 A) which should help:
If you plan to use the bounce management for asynchronous bounces, replace the empty mailloop string '' directly after the redirection URL you just entered in the step before, with the sender hostname (see section 8.2).

Found the configuration in the openemm-2011.sql file and set the sender domain. The bounce filter is created with the proper domain.

Now I'm having a different issue: sendmail is posting milter error messages in the maillog file:
Jan 19 14:40:51 localhost sendmail[31159]: q0JKep3Q031159: Milter (bav): error connecting to filter: Permission denied
Jan 19 14:40:51 localhost sendmail[31159]: q0JKep3Q031159: Milter (bav): to error state
Jan 19 14:40:51 localhost sendmail[31159]: q0JKep3Q031159: Milter: initialization failed, temp failing commands

I have the following line in my sendmail.mc file:
INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`bav', `S=unix:/home/openemm/var/run/bav.sock, F=T')dnl

And here are the permissions on the bav.sock Unix domain socket:
srwxrwxr-x. 1 openemm openemm 0 Jan 19 14:27 bav.sock

Changing permission on bav.sock to o+w doesn't seem to help and is wiped out when I stop and restart OpenEMM anyway. All of the bav-related processes seem to be running under the openemm user. Sendmail is running as root or smmsp.

I had the same problem with OpenEMM 2011 on CentOS 6.2. Turns out it was selinux-related, so I simply disabled selinux completely. Now everythings works fine again.

Kind Regards,
Michael
