ISPManager 5 | Exim returns EMail messages to antispam server
 
The situation is:
  • domain.tld has an MX mx.anti-spam-operator.tld;
  • there are no other MX records;
  • server mx.anti-spam-operator.tld sends EMail messages to mx.hosting-provider.tld (EMail accounts at domain.tld are here);
  • mx.hosting-provider.tld software: Ubuntu 14.04.1, ISPmanager Lite 5.104.5, Exim 4.82...

...But there are no EMail messages in mailboxes.

Here is the simplest test

====

Anti-spam operator's support confirm that messages are sent to and accepted by mx.hosting-provider.tld.

I have logs from mx.anti-spam-operator.tld of transfer of messages from external servers, other domains, etc. (not from localhost to localhost like in the example above, it's a simplest example I've achieved).

That logs are normal, here are first three and last five lines

Wed 2017-09-27 10:57:15: Session 27; child 1
Wed 2017-09-27 10:57:13: Parsing message <c:\mdaemon\remoteq\pd50013882648.msg>
Wed 2017-09-27 10:57:13: * From:...

Wed 2017-09-27 10:57:13: Transfer Complete
Wed 2017-09-27 10:57:15: <-- 250 OK id=1dx7DW-0009qG-Ea
Wed 2017-09-27 10:57:15: --> QUIT
Wed 2017-09-27 10:57:15: <-- 221 mx.hosting-provider.tld closing connection
Wed 2017-09-27 10:57:15: SMTP session successful (Bytes in/out: 376/4528)


The result is the same: "R=dnslookup T=remote_smtp: SMTP error from remote mail server after initial connection: host mx.anti-spam-operator.tld [16.32.64.128]: 550 Connection refused".

You can copy to your favorite search system long requests:

when the server is going to send a email exim makes a nslookup and get the higher priority (lower value) MX record and tries to send the mail to the asigned address


MX records of equal priority are sorted by Exim into a random order. Exim then looks for address records for the host names obtained from MX or SRV records. When a host has more than one IP address, they are sorted into a random order, except that IPv6 addresses are always sorted before IPv4 addresses.

====

The question is predictable: how to make mx.hosting-provider.tld just to put messages in mailboxes (without making DNS requests, selecting MX and forward EMail messages)?

I have been searching the answer about ten hours with no success.

:D

Sorry, I've got it!

We made it!

/etc/exim4/exim4.conf.template
localusers:
driver = accept
domains = domain.tld
check_local_user
transport = local_delivery

And this
/etc/exim4/exim4.conf.template line 35
domainlist dummy_domains = domain.tld
