I'm trying to setup a forwarding only email server. I'm running into the problem where all messages forwarded via
postfix are getting put into gmail's spam folder and getting flagged as forged. I'm testing a very similar setup on a cpanel box and their forwarded emails make it through without any problem.
Things I've done:
Setup reverse dns on forwarding box
Setup SPF record for forwarding box domain
CPanel route (not flagged as spam):
[email protected] -
[email protected] -
[email protected]
AWS
postfix route (flagged as spam):
[email protected] -
[email protected] -
[email protected]
Gmail error message:
/etc/postfix/main.cf
myhostname = sputnik.*domain*.com
smtpd_banner = $myhostname ESMTP $mail_name (Ubuntu)
biff = no
append_dot_mydomain = no
readme_directory = no
