Dalam mengoperasikan mail server mungkin saja ada gangguan pada mail server utama misalnya incoming port 25 tertutup. Untuk mengatasinya kita membuat server mx backup dan kemudian meneruskan ke server utama melalui port lain.

Membuat Server untuk MX Backup dengan Postfix adalah seperti pada berikut ini

  1. Silahkan instal postfix dengan tipe Internet Site
  2. Pada /etc/postfix/main.cf bagian restriction
    smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated, permit_mynetworks, reject_unauth_destination
  3. Pada
    relay_domains = $mydestination, domainku.com 
  4. Pada
    relay_recipient_maps =
  5. Seting relay host ke server utama melalui port lain
    relayhost = [204.233.95.52]:1190
  6. Contoh lengkap konfigurasi lengkap
    # See /usr/share/postfix/main.cf.dist for a commented, more complete version
    
    
    # Debian specific:  Specifying a file name will cause the first
    # line of that file to be used as the name.  The Debian default
    # is /etc/mailname.
    #myorigin = /etc/mailname
    
    smtpd_banner = $myhostname ESMTP $mail_name (Ubuntu)
    biff = no
    
    # appending .domain is the MUA's job.
    append_dot_mydomain = no
    
    # Uncomment the next line to generate "delayed mail" warnings
    #delay_warning_time = 4h
    
    readme_directory = no
    
    # See http://www.postfix.org/COMPATIBILITY_README.html -- default to 2 on
    # fresh installs.
    compatibility_level = 2
    
    
    
    # TLS parameters
    smtpd_tls_cert_file=/etc/ssl/certs/ssl-cert-snakeoil.pem
    smtpd_tls_key_file=/etc/ssl/private/ssl-cert-snakeoil.key
    smtpd_tls_security_level=may
    
    smtp_tls_CApath=/etc/ssl/certs
    smtp_tls_security_level=may
    smtp_tls_session_cache_database = btree:${data_directory}/smtp_scache
    
    
    #smtpd_relay_restrictions = permit_mynetworks permit_sasl_authenticated defer_unauth_destination
    smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated, permit_mynetworks, reject_unauth_destination
    myhostname = server3.ult.id
    alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
    alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
    myorigin = /etc/mailname
    mydestination = $myhostname, server3.ult.id, localhost.ultima.id, , localhost
    relay_domains = $mydestination, tokokue.com
    relay_recipient_maps =
    relayhost = [209.233.95.52]:1190
    mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8 [::ffff:127.0.0.0]/104 [::1]/128
    mailbox_size_limit = 0
    recipient_delimiter = +
    inet_interfaces = all
    inet_protocols = all
