Exim, Google Apps & unroutable address

Question

Google Workspace

Hey Habr.
There is the following situation.

There is a domain, let's call it example.com with mail served by Google Apps. There is a second domain, secondexample.com, service (for internal purposes).

There was a need to send mail from the site example.com with the same domain.
To do this, the following was done:
dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config
Selected "Internet site", entered a domain name, disabled relay for other domains, and opened SMTP only for localhost, everything is fine.

Then, the following entry was made in the CSN: Everything seems to be working fine. But today I found the following in the log: And so for all addresses in this domain, except (!!) [email protected]… Mail goes to all other domains normally. What could it be, and how to deal with it?
example.com IN TXT v=spf1 a mx ptr ptr:example.com include:_spf.google.com ~all

2011-03-11 09:57:06 1PxxDe-0003xb-6j ** [email protected]: Unrouteable address


frontend:/var/log/exim4# exim -bt [email protected]
R: system_aliases for [email protected]
[email protected] is undeliverable: Unrouteable address



frontend:/var/log/exim4# exim -bt [email protected]
R: system_aliases for [email protected]
R: system_aliases for [email protected]
R: userforward for [email protected]
R: procmail for [email protected]
R: maildrop for [email protected]
R: lowuid_aliases for [email protected] (UID 1000)
R: local_user for [email protected]
[email protected]
<-- [email protected]
router = local_user, transport = mail_spool


Thank you!

Answer 1

Also faced the same problem. I won by prescribing the same transport for local_domains in the Exim settings as for all the others (remote_smtp, not redirect to a folder).

Answer 2

Surely the hostname of the server == example.com ... In general, look in /etc/hosts and check that the notorious example is not there.

Answer 3

Yes, of course.
And do hostname blah.example.com to be sure.
Only in reverse order.

Answer 4

I have a similar situation.
There is a VPS with the skobkin.ru domain, where you need to send soap from a php script. Sendmail did not send normally to Google soap on the same domain - [email protected] I installed exim4, as well as sendmail, it also does not send to Google Apps soap, although during the configuration I also selected the Internet site and removed skobkin.ru from the list of domains whose mail should remain on the server ... How did you solve the
problem?
