Hello there.
I have a problem configuring my home-server (Ubuntu) with postfix.
The main usage I need postfix for is to send email alerts to an email
address if monitoring programs found any problem with the server.
I tried to configure it to use a gmail account to send it from,
because I think it could be more professional if more future will be
needed.
I followed tutorial about configuration, including the part about
certificates. The actual situation is the following:
If i try to send an email using sendmail -t
sender-...@gmail.com -
bv
desti...@gmail.com, the console answers:
Mail Delivery Status Report will be mailed to <sender-
user...@gmail.com>.
and /var/log/mail.log reports:

Mar 12 14:15:46 home-server postfix/qmgr[24718]: E1C25A07A: removed
.
The result is that I cannot receive the email at
user...@gmail.com,
but I can receive Mail Delivery Status Report at sender-
user...@gmail.com.
I'm on dynamic Internet Public IP, so I use a dynamic dns host: could
it be a problem? (I mean, due to reverse IP lookup by gmail)
Anyway if it's a problem, how is it possible to receive the Mail
Delivery Status Report but not the message?
Thanks in advance,
Rob
