I run postfix my servers to allow websites to send email. I'm using it as a drop-in for sendmail
proper.
When an email is sent the HELO string seems to contain localhost
. This wouldn't be a problem except that one of my clients has just said that an email was returned to them from a spam blocker saying that localhost
cannot feature inside the HELO string. Awesome.
So I edited /etc/mailname
to be my main domain name. And I edited /etc/postfix/main.cf
so that:
smtpd_banner = ESMTP $mail_name
Yet this is what I see in the header of a sent email (after restarting postfix):
Delivered-To: [email protected]

I've subbed my domain with example.com.
What do I need to edit to quash the evil reign of localhost
?!
