Wrong IP is sending the email. It is not using the default IP

[leisegang]

When i send an email, i have a PTR record for my hostname server.domain.com it has IP 192.168.0.1 (not real IP, but i dont want to publish my server IP)
I also have an addon IP address 192.168.0.2
IPs and hostname is changed to make this simple.

When i send an email it uses the 192.168.0.2 IP address and not the one for the hostname, this has the "wrong" PTR record, and so gmail blocks the email because its not "correct" ptr and several other parameters.

How do i change this so it doesnt happen? server sends around 1000-2000 mail a day and about 50-100 are blocked. this is quite irritating that it does not use hostname and server IP in CWP for sending email. it uses ANY ip address!

you need to configure the postfix like the below :

in /etc/postfix/master.cf

smtp      unix  -       -       n       -       -       smtp
  -o smtp_bind_address=100.100.100.100
# When relaying mail as backup MX, disable fallback_relay to avoid MX loops
relay     unix  -       -       n       -       -       smtp
        -o smtp_bind_address=100.100.100.100
        -o fallback_relay=
#       -o smtp_helo_timeout=5 -o smtp_connect_timeout=5

That is what i have in my master file now.

edit that to this:

smtp      unix  -       -       n       -       -       smtp
  -o smtp_bind_address=100.100.100.100
# When relaying mail as backup MX, disable fallback_relay to avoid MX loops
relay     unix  -       -       n       -       -       smtp
        -o smtp_bind_address=100.100.100.100
        -o fallback_relay=
#       -o smtp_helo_timeout=5 -o smtp_connect_timeout=5

So just adding the line to smtp AND relay lines then

I will try this after a reply
