Messaging Gateway "Relay Access Denied"

$

0
I need a solution

Hi,

I'm new to SMG an am in the process of configuring my first two Messaging Gateway Virtual Edition (10.5.4-4).  I'm trying to configure the SMGs as a hop in between our Exchange Environment and our current edge infrastructure.  Emails route in fine from the edge, through the SMEs to Exchange.  When I try to test a route back from Exchange to SME that will route upstream to the edge devices, SME refused the message from Exchange with a '#5.7.1 smtp; 554 5.7.1 user@domain.com Relay access denied ' message.

I've tried looking under the administration/hosts/configuration/smtp and made sure the Exchange server IPs were list under both inbound and outbound and they are also listed under  administration/hosts/configuration/internal Mail Hosts.  Anyone have an idea of what I might be missing?

I need a solution

We recently deployed Symantec Messaging Gateway 10.5.4-4 and tried to use the VMXNET3 network driver which provides superier performance in a VMWare virtual environment. This driver is not installed and we would like this driver included or a way to add the driver as cpu usage is considerably higher when using other adapter types (E1000)

I need a solution

When I client who uses Mimecast emails us, and mimecast uses opportunistic TLS, SMG rejects the messages with a retry later.

The message header contains a failed TLS negotiation

Unable to initiate TLS - Possible CA Problem - sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target

INFO |0716-101804 070|...|||Error Code|21040|Socket closed

The SMG is running the latest updates 10.5.2

We can email the client fine. Anyeon else expercing issues wiht this or similar  ?

Why is SMG not falling bakc to clear if TLS negotiation fails. Why is TLS failing ?

thank you in advance

Receiving mails from external local domain

$

I need a solution

Hello,

We have Symantec Messaging Gateway, version 10.5.4-4. We want to receive mails from a DB Sever, but these mails are rejected for the following reason:

"Rejected message by MTA, MAIL-FROM domain does note exist in DNS".

Domain sender is a local domain, so it doesn't have "A", "AAAA" or "MX" DNS registers. It's active the option "Reject messages where the domain provided in the MAIL FROM address has neither an "A", nor an "AAAA", nor an "MX" record in DNS" (Protocols - Settings - SMTP) and we don't want to disable this option.

So, I thought to add the IP Address in [Administration - Hosts - Configuration - Outbound - Accept outbound mail connections from the following IP addresses and domains], but I'm not sure if it's going to work.

So, we need to be able to receive emails from this server, without disabling the option mentioned above.

If we add the Server's IP address where I said before, Is it enough? Or we have to do something else?

And if not... any solution?

Thanks in advance,

David

SMG Header showing IPs

I need a solution

SMG is showing private IPs on the header section, some work was done to remove this before but was before I got hands on the tool, based on old forums, I followed the path through under Administration -> Configuration -> <scanner name> -> SMTP -> Advanced Settings inside the Delivery tab, but Im dead on the water at that point, I'm not sure which option to go to since this solution is from 2012.

Please advise, thanks in advance.

I'm in the process of changing the IP address of SMG 10.5 but most of the commands in the command line document is now working for me.

For example "delete osconfig". Am I missing something?

When I attempt to add route it tell me it can't reach network. What am I supposed to do here?

I need a solution

Hi,

I'm recieving more phishing emails contain malicous url which redirecting to malicous web site.
I'm using Symantec Messaging Gateway. Do realise that the SMG "Expanded URL Rputation filtering" feature is useful on this matter. However I'm not sure how to configure ir properly.

Can anyone advise:

i ) is the SMG "Expanded URL Rputation filtering" feature is useful on this matter?
ii) if so, is there any paper/guidelines I can refer for this configuration?

Need content filter rule to block messages with '=' in Return-Path header

$

I need a solution

We've been experiencing an increase in messages getting through our Messaging Gateway as well as our customer's gateways.  This stuff goes in cycles, obviously, and the filters usually catch up but this time they haven't been.  Following all of the official and community best practices.  We've reduced a lot of the junk by lowering the directory harvesting thresholds down to 3 invalid recipients but this still results in a lot of messages getting through.

While reviewing the headers of these messages I found that the Return-Path is *almost always* formatted like this:
RandomName-RecipientsAddress@SenderDomain

The important detail is that the @ in the RecipientAddress portion is replaced with =, for example:
JohnDoe-myemail=address.com@sender.domain.com

Simple solution seems to be create a content filter rule to look for '=' in the Return-Path header.  I've tried this two ways and it does not work consistently, if at all.  Anybody have any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?  Is this a bug?  Here are the conditions I've tried:

If text in Message header "Return-Path" contains 1 or more occurrences of "="

If text in Message header "Return-Path" matches regular expression "^.*\=.*?"

Seems like this should be a no brainer but something isn't right.

Thanks!

I need a solution

hello community,

SMG setup:

A is a SMG gateway to the internet for all in / out of my company  (this is a VM) 10.5.4-4

B is another SMG right after A for other mail routing but all mail passes thru B as well in /out (this is a VM) as well 10.5.4-4

A and B both have the same SPAM filtering settings (delete mail with spam).

Problem: B is catching spam that A should have caught. <-- this is not right

Settings:  Both A and B are allowed (thru the firewall) to go where ever neeed to get virus and spam defs; basically they are allowed to make any                              connection to symantec or brightmail servers to get updates < this is NOT the issue, this works perfectly.

               Sender Authentication is off on A and B and DKIM is off

PLease help

Why is Symantec Messaging Gateway dropping connections from spesific IP address?

$

I need a solution

We have been told by an external contact that emails sent to us is often returned with the message "You are not allowed to connect".

I found the connection IP from one of the emails that were accepted and tried to look it up under Reputation Tools > Find Sender, but got "The sender does not belong to any sender group.". Then I tried IP Reputation Lookup and got the following:

ipreplookup.png

I cannot find a reason why so many connections are rejected. Filtering Connection IP in Message Audit Logs returns a list of thousands of rejected connections with Action "Rejected message by MTA".

How can I find the reason for connection rejections?

Enabling Spam Policies

I need a solution

Hi All,

I have a doubt on enabling the email polices that are pre-configured in the appliance. I'm referring to the "Marketing Email/Newsletter/Suspicous URL".

When I enable, these polices refine the the email that are insise the bounds of "Suspected Spam" ?

Just to better explain: our range of suspected spam is among 72 and 89. If I enable these policies, all the email that are inside this range (rather then bieng delivedered as they are) are further checked by these policies ?

Thanks in advance for your reply/interest.

Cheers.
