Beginner Problems - Mail is not forwarded

Hello,

I have been using EFA for several years in my home office as a spam filter without major problems.

Unfortunately I had to change to a new Hyper-V installation, so I decided to install EFA again.
The current EFA installation is still running - but unfortunately I have to install on another server.

At the moment I have a lot of trouble with the configuration because I am not a Linux professional.

First of all: I want to install Fetchmail to get some Pop3 accounts which will be processed by EFA.
I also know that a pure SMTP delivery is better, but this is a private installation.

I have done the minimal installation of Centos 8 and EFA and extended the /etc/postfix/transport as follows based on the previous EFA configuration
maildomain.tld smtp:192.168.250.10:7103

7103 is the incoming port on the Exchange server.
This is also where the IP of the mail gateway was released.

What works:
I can send an email to the EFA via SMTP and it will be displayed in the Gui (after a few minutes...).
Unfortunately, this mail is not forwarded to the Exchange although I have set the above option.

Does anyone have an idea why this does not work?
In which log files do I have to look?

Thanks a lot!

Code: Select all

sudo postmap /etc/postfix/transport

Hello Shawniverson,

thank you for your answer!
Yes... that was the mistake.
Sorry... I have trouble with Linux sometimes
