Piler smtp !

[Piler1312]

Hi Janos

i 'm working with Piler since a year now on my local network but i have installed the piler server in the cloud (Azure) and everything work great but only the restore process did not work, i did not installed any program for delivery of mail but i think i got piler-smtp working on this server .. so i check in mail.log after a restore proces piler look to try send something but not delivery..

My smarthost is on local piler (127.0.01) port 25 and here the log, i remove my rcpt email in for security

Dec 23 12:59:24 mailpiler piler-webui[98232]: sending mail from=[e-mail], rcpt=my email address , status=1
Dec 23 12:59:24 mailpiler piler-smtp[1559]: disconnected from 127.0.0.1 on descriptor 6 (0 active connections)

I’m not sure but i think than the problem is i could not reach a smtp server to send the restore to recipient !!

So maybe let me know also i could use office365 for smarthost to be able to send to our office user !

Thank you !!

Hello Piler1312, piler-smtp only receives emails via smtp protocol, it doesn’t act as a smarthost. To the restore feature work you need to set SMARTHOST in config-site.php, and it should point to one of your MX server.

Ok thanks Janos, i know than i need to use smarthost but i’m azure cloud and need to use one on my outlook mailserver for smarthost and try few setting without success !!

probably i need to use specific setting in config-site.php to use outlook mail server with authentication !! Could you let me know with setting should i use to have restore process work !!

Thank you

I don’t follow. What’s outlook mail server? Do you refer to office365 smtp servers? Probably it would be the best to install postfix on the archive host, make it listen on 127.0.0.1 (or a different address), and you may use it as a smarthost. Also in this case be sure to fix listen_addr in piler.conf, to prevent conflict between piler-smtp and postfix.

Yes Janos, sorry about my wrong explanation …. Yes i talk about office365 smtp server !!! But i was not sure about the use of postfix on local because all new amilpiler  installation begin with removal process of  postfix …  Before this new setup on the cloud I had mailpiler server on my local lan and the smarthost was a local smtp server and everything was ok, that’s why i was looking for the same solution on cloud …

Well, the postfix smarthost can be anywhere. It can be on the archive host (127.0.0.1) as I mentioned above, or it could be a dedicated virtual machine. I hope you can make it, and we can close this ticket.
