The default mynetwork setting isn't applied consistently.

Problem is, I can't reliably reproduce it. Sometimes when I run docker compose up it just doesn't get set, most of the time it does. I haven't changed any settings between restarts..

I don't have POSTFIX_mynetwork set and I don't have any config in files, only docker labels.

On startup the logs show the right networks:

INFO  Applying custom postfix setting: mynetworks=127.0.0.0/8,10.0.0.0/8,172.16.0.0/12,192.168.0.0/16

But postconf gives me:

postconf | grep "mynetworks ="
mynetworks = 127.0.0.1/32 172.23.0.5/32

There is no setting set in main.cf

# Alternatively, you can specify the mynetworks list by hand, in
# which case Postfix ignores the mynetworks_style setting.
#
# Specify an explicit list of network/netmask patterns, where the
# mask specifies the number of bits in the network part of a host
# address.
#
# You can also specify the absolute pathname of a pattern file instead
# of listing the patterns here. Specify type:table for table-based lookups
# (the value on the table right-hand side is not used).
#
#mynetworks = 168.100.3.0/28, 127.0.0.0/8
#mynetworks = $config_directory/mynetworks
#mynetworks = hash:/etc/postfix/network_table

# ...
myhostname = <redacted>
# mynetworks is missing here. Most of the time it's: mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8,10.0.0.0/8,172.16.0.0/12,192.168.0.0/16
myorigin = <redacted>

(And nothing at the end of the file as well.)

Well, this is a first one.

Unfortunately, you have not given me a lot to go on:

  • which version of the image are you using
  • which variant (Debian, Alpine...)
  • what's your startup procedure / configuration settings for running the image
  • does this happen with mynetworks only, or are the other settings affected as well
  • do you have any volumes bound
  • ...

So, until I'm able to reproduce the issue, unfortunately, I don't think I can help.

It's pretty weird and I'm pretty confused about what could cause that behavior. I've looked at the startup scripts in this repo and found nothing on first glance.

But you are right, I could at least have provided more details:

For now I have only seen mynetworks missing. Which I noticed, because Postfix started to reject mail from the local Mailman.

I'm using boky/postfix:latest-alpine (at the time of writing that's c2b9a8a68d73)
I use it as a docker compose service with restart: unless-stopped.
Port 25 is exposed to the host and the container is part a bridge network for mailman to be able to talk via LMTP.

Config

(Everything configured via the POSTFIX_ environment variables.)

I have two binds:

volumes:
      - ./volumes/mailman-core:/opt/mailman/core:ro
      - /host/keys:/etc/opendkim/keys

/opt/mailman/core contains transport_maps, local_recipient_maps and relay_domains that are auto-generated by Mailman.

Additionally I have set mydomain and myorigin.

DKIM_AUTOGENERATE: "true"
DKIM_SELECTOR: 10-2023

POSTFIX_mydomain: <redacted>
POSTFIX_myorigin: <redacted> # Default: $myhostname localhost.$mydomain localhost

POSTFIX_recipient_delimiter: +
POSTFIX_unknown_local_recipient_reject_code: 550
POSTFIX_owner_request_special: "no"
POSTFIX_transport_maps: regexp:/opt/mailman/core/var/data/postfix_lmtp
POSTFIX_local_recipient_maps: regexp:/opt/mailman/core/var/data/postfix_lmtp
POSTFIX_relay_domains: regexp:/opt/mailman/core/var/data/postfix_domains
# And a bunch of restrictions. (client, helo, sender, recipient)
# They use `permit_mynetworks` which of course fails if mynetworks isn't set.

@bokysan I can now reproduce my problem:

$ docker compose down && docker compose up -d

$ docker exec mailman-postfix-1 postconf | grep "mynetworks ="
mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8,10.0.0.0/8,172.16.0.0/12,192.168.0.0/16

$ docker compose restart postfix

$ docker exec mailman-postfix-1 postconf | grep "mynetworks ="
mynetworks = 127.0.0.1/32 172.23.0.2/32

Curiosly the same happens with --force-recreate:

$ docker compose down && docker compose up -d

$ docker exec mailman-postfix-1 postconf | grep "mynetworks ="
mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8,10.0.0.0/8,172.16.0.0/12,192.168.0.0/16

$ docker compose up -d --force-recreate

$ docker exec mailman-postfix-1 postconf | grep "mynetworks ="
mynetworks = 127.0.0.1/32 172.23.0.2/32

(I waited for the startup script to post INFO Applying custom postfix setting: mynetworks=127.0.0.0/8,10.0.0.0/8,172.16.0.0/12,192.168.0.0/16 after every start.)

This is really odd. Can you check the logs from docker compose up -d and then from docker compose restart postfix?

The image is pretty chatty about what's it doing. I just want to ensure to know where this is coming from.

@bokysan Sure.
I'm pretty confused by that. :-)
I thought at least with the --force-recreate you have the complete container lifecycle and thus it should be equivalent to down && up.

Ok, in both cases it says:

postfix-1  | ‣ INFO  Applying custom postfix setting: mynetworks=127.0.0.0/8,10.0.0.0/8,172.16.0.0/12,192.168.0.0/16

The only possibility I see is the if the do_postconf method wrongly deducts that this setting and instead of setting it, it deletes it.

I will try to recreate your issue and see what happens.

The same actually happens, when I set POSTFIX_mynetworks manually.
POSTFIX_mynetworks: 127.0.0.0/8,10.0.0.0/8,172.16.0.0/12,192.168.0.0/16

Hi @MrEbbinghaus -- so far I believe you're the only person with this problem and I have not been able to replicate the issue anywhere.

Not quite sure where to go from here.

I'd kindly ask you to other provide:

  • a test case which consistently reproduces a problem, or
  • a patch fix

Appreciated,
B
