Email is displayed incorrectly
« on: March 19, 2024, 12:26:51 PM »
Hello forum, I have a strange problem.

I have two identical SME 10 servers and one has an email display problem.
The email is generated by Veeam on a Windows computer and indicates the success of a backup. This email goes directly to the admin via port 25 on the SME server.
On one server it looks like this (this is ok):




On the other server it looks like this (this is not ok):

I have compared all qpsmtpd and qmail configuration files on both servers and cannot find any errors.
If I send the email directly via the provider's SMTP, the email is also ok. So it's a problem with the SME Server.
Does somebody has any idea?

Yes I know, but what can I do?

Start debugging it?

Start narrowing down where the issue might lie rather than just guessing.

Start by looking at the headers in the emails, and the body. Look at the ACTUAL file in the directory on the server rather than via webmail or a mail program.

Are the files exactly the same on both servers?

Are the mails sent the same as those received i.e. is SME interfering in any way? Can you get it to sned a copy to another mail service at the same to compare?

Are you using the same mail reading program to view them? If so, have you tried another program?

You say they are identical servers.

Have a read here and do some auditing. The usual stuff - newrpms and templates.

1. Read the Manual
2. Read the Wiki
3. Don't ask for support on Unsupported versions of software
4. I have a job, wife, and kids and do this in my spare time. If you want something fixed, please help.

The email client is always the same, Outlook.
I'll have the email sent to this email account.
So really always the same Outlook on the same Windows client.

I watched qpsmtp closely. What I then noticed was this line in the log file:
I don't see this line on the good SME server

@4000000065fab0b70d1f275c 9667 dispatching MAIL FROM:<info@domain.de>

@4000000065fab0b70d2bd18c 9667 250 <info@domain.de>, sender OK - how exciting to get mail from you!
@4000000065fab0b70d34ca6c 9667 dispatching RCPT TO:<admin@domain.de>

@4000000065fab0b70d3c7b2c 9667 250 <admin@domain.de>, recipient ok


(I replace the original domainname!)
From my point of view the email address is ok.
Is this my problem?

Important Information!
Both SME10 were updated from SME9 to SME10 with the migratehelper script.
Could this be the cause?

relay client means the client sending is on the same lan or an authorized ip and check  will not be done for this plugin.

suggest you put  full log of the two qpsmtpd transactions.

Those emails come from 2 different WIN servers, I'd blame Veeam Agent running on them for the mime content.

Try sending emails to them from another source.

Only veeam on win2012 might be.

Try sending emails to them from another source and see if that looks ok.

It is a Problem from SME.

You have assumed as such but have done nothing to actually PROVE it.

You have told us it can't be this and can't be that with no evidence. Please stop guessing and assuming and start looking at facts.

Have you checked the actual headers and bodies of the emails on the server as I said above?

Look in here:

/home/e-smith/Maildir

Look in cur or new for the emails and check then whole email.

eg

cat "/home/e-smith/Maildir/cur/1682671895.26537_1.host.domain.com:2,S"

Clearly the headers seem OK. In your email headers you pasted what comes in the next few lines following this:

Code: [Select]
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
The text following should be plain text. Where does the base64 part start?

Also, if we ask you to paste information like I did above, please do so. We aren't doing it to waste your time but to look at your server and try to understand it.

So please paste the output of 'newrpms' and 'templates', and answer JPs question:

Code: [Select]
suggest you put  full log of the two qpsmtpd transactions.
Thanks.
