  Hi!
  Thanks for your tutorial. Really good work! But what i would like to know is, how do you handle bounces when you have setup different instances of postfix?

  Thanks in advance,
  Peter

  You can setup the mailbox for the bounces in config.php:

  # Message envelope.
  #
  # This is the address that most bounces will be delivered to
  # Your should make this an address that no PERSON reads
  # but a mailbox that phpList can empty every so often, to process the bounces

  $message_envelope = ‘bounces@mydomain.com’;

  # Handling bounces. Check README.bounces for more info
  # This can be ‘pop’ or ‘mbox’
  $bounce_protocol = ‘pop’;

  # set this to 0, if you set up a cron to download bounces regularly by using the
  # commandline option. If this is 0, users cannot run the page from the web
  # frontend. Read README.commandline to find out how to set it up on the
  # commandline
  define (“MANUALLY_PROCESS_BOUNCES”,1);

  # when the protocol is pop, specify these three
  $bounce_mailbox_host = ‘smtp.mydomain.com’;
  $bounce_mailbox_user = ‘bounces’;
  $bounce_mailbox_password = ‘mypassword’;

  Hi again!

  The Problem i got is, that the sending instance has its own domain (abc.com). So bounces@abc.com will be delivered to the mx of this domain. The postfix instance is refusing smtp connections at this time. So what i wanted was, an postfix instance that is sending and recieving mail for one domain.

  Regards,
  Peter

    1. make sure you start the postfix instance:
    postmulti -i postfix-2 -p start

    2. the beginning of the file /admin/index.php should be something like:

    <?php
    putenv("MAIL_CONFIG=/etc/postfix-2");
    

    Note: The quotation marks sometime get changed when you copy from the blog.

    I would say setup one phplist and postfix first. If it works then follow the steps in this post.

  Dear Jack Huang

  I setup PHP List on VPS it’s working fine.That VPS I purchased with extra 5 Public IP for balance outgoing e-mails via multiple IP .The solution is depending on postfix`s TCP_TABLES and a perl script..

  Install the perl module List::util::WeightedRoundRobin:
  cpan install /List::util::WeightedRoundRobin/

  Create the following perl script and make it executable:
  vi /etc/postfix/random.pl

  #!/usr/bin/perl -w
  # author: Hari Hendaryanto
  use strict;
  use warnings;
  use Sys::Syslog qw(:DEFAULT setlogsock);
  use List::Util::WeightedRoundRobin;
  use Storable;

  my $hashfile=”/tmp/file.hash”;
  store {}, $hashfile unless -r $hashfile;

  #
  # our transports lists, we will define this in master.cf as transport services
  # Queued using Weighted Round-Robin Scheduling
  #
  my $list = [
  {
  name => ‘smtp1:’,
  weight => 1,
  },
  {
  name => ‘smtp2:’,
  weight => 1,
  },
  {
  name => ‘smtp3:’,
  weight => 1,
  },
  {
  name => ‘smtp4:’,
  weight => 1,
  },
  {
  name => ‘smtp5:’,
  weight => 1,
  },
  {
  name => ‘smtp6:’,
  weight => 1,
  },
  {
  name => ‘smtp7:’,
  weight => 1,
  },
  ];

  my $WeightedList = List::Util::WeightedRoundRobin->new();
  my $weighted_list = $WeightedList->create_weighted_list( $list );

  # $maxinqueue max number of queue in smtp list
  my $maxinqueue = scalar(@{$weighted_list});

  #
  # Initalize and open syslog.
  #
  openlog(‘postfix/randomizer’,’pid’,’mail’);
  #
  # Autoflush standard output.
  #
  select STDOUT; $|++;

  while () {
  chomp;
  my $count;
  my $hash=retrieve($hashfile);

  if (!defined $hash->{“index”})
  {
  $count = 0;
  } else {
  $count = $hash->{“index”};
  }

  if ($count >= $maxinqueue)
  {
  $hash->{“index”} = 0;
  $count = 0;
  }

  $hash->{“index”}++;
  store $hash, $hashfile;
  my $random_smtp = ${$weighted_list}[$count];
  if (/^get\s(.+)$/i) {
  print “200 $random_smtp\n”;
  syslog(“info”,”Using: %s Transport Service”, $random_smtp);
  next;
  }
  print “200 smtp:\n”;
  }

  Execute the script to make sure it`s working and no errors are encountered:
  /etc/postfix/random.pl

  Configure postfix to use the random generated smtp transport.

  Edit /etc/postfix/master.cf, by appending following lines:
  ## Round-robin outgoing smtp
  127.0.0.1:23000 inet n n n – 0 spawn
  user=nobody argv=/etc/postfix/random.pl
  # random smtp
  smtp1 unix – – n – – smtp
  -o syslog_name=postfix-smtp1
  -o smtp_helo_name=FQDN
  -o smtp_bind_address=IP

  smtp2 unix – – n – – smtp
  -o syslog_name=postfix-smtp2
  -o smtp_helo_name= FQDN
  -o smtp_bind_address=IP

  smtp3 unix – – n – – smtp
  -o syslog_name=postfix-smtp3
  -o smtp_helo_name=FQDN
  -o smtp_bind_address=IP

  smtp4 unix – – n – – smtp
  -o syslog_name=postfix-smtp4
  -o smtp_helo_name=FQDN
  -o smtp_bind_address=IP

  smtp5 unix – – n – – smtp
  -o syslog_name=postfix-smtp5
  -o smtp_helo_name=FQDN
  -o smtp_bind_address=IP

  smtp6 unix – – n – – smtp
  -o syslog_name=postfix-smtp6
  -o smtp_helo_name= FQDN
  -o smtp_bind_address=IP

  smtp7 unix – – n – – smtp
  -o syslog_name=postfix-smtp7
  -o smtp_helo_name= FQDN
  -o smtp_bind_address=IP

  Replace FQDN with desired hostname and IP with the list of the IP addresses you`d like to use.

  Append the following lines to your /etc/postfix/main.cf:
  transport_maps = tcp:127.0.0.1:23000
  127.0.0.1:23000_time_limit = 3600s

  Restart/reload postfix and verify everything is working correctly:
  # postmap -q “dummy” tcp:127.0.0.1:23000
  smtp4:
  # postmap -q “dummy” tcp:127.0.0.1:23000
  smtp5:
  # postmap -q “dummy” tcp:127.0.0.1:23000
  smtp6:

  In your logs you should see the different smtp transport beeing used when mails are sent:
  Sep 2 12:50:05 myserver postfix-smtp2/smtp[2016]: 3CA964C0004: to=, relay=domain.org[XXXXXXXXX]:25, delay=2, delays=0.03/0.01/0.18/1.8, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 OK id=1T86oe-0005tU-E9)
  Sep 2 12:50:05 myserver postfix-smtp5/smtp[2014]: 4EE244C0012: to=, relay=domain.org[XXXXXXXXX]:25, delay=2, delays=0.01/0/0.21/1.8, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 OK id=1T86oe-0005tx-Gn)
  Sep 2 12:50:05 myserver postfix-smtp3/smtp[2045]: 69305680035: to=, relay=domain.org[XXXXXXXXX]:25, delay=2, delays=0.05/0/0.11/1.9, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 OK id=1T86oe-0005uJ-Ih)
  Sep 2 12:50:05 myserver postfix-smtp3/smtp[2034]: 444B94C0006: to=, relay=domain.org[XXXXXXXXX]:25, delay=2.2, delays=0.04/0/0.21/1.9, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 OK id=1T86oe-0005tW-G9)
  Sep 2 12:50:05 myserver postfix-smtp1/smtp[2039]: 585A6583CFE: to=, relay=domain.org[XXXXXXXXX]:25, delay=2.2, delays=0.01/0/0.15/2, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 OK id=1T86oe-0005u0-GO)

  And also you get an entry when the perl script is used to provide transport:
  Sep 2 13:24:59 myserver postfix/randomizer[2076]: Using: smtp6: Transport Service

  Please advice me this setup Is OK for me or I need to send mails via multiple instance.

  Hello Mr. Jack Huang

  With this configuration I can get PHPList send emails for the 2 instances at once?

  If so, what should I do to send for 3 instances at once

    You can repeat these steps and create multiple instances.

  Hello. Is possibile tu use POSTFIX Multi-Istances with Client Software? I’m using Multi-Istances with Phplist and it work because Phplist use ( putenv(“MAIL_CONFIG=/etc/postfix-2”); …but with Client Software (Like Thunderbid, Outlook, ecc.)….Postfix use always the primary server’s IP and not the dedicate instance IP. There’s a Way?

    You can update MAIL_CONFIG to select a different queue before the mail() function.
    php mail() function seems to be in the file admin/phpmailer/class.phpmailer.php; see the function MailSend().
