[Bug 459101] Re: Relay denied from eucalyptus registration emails - source address is wrong.

[Mathias Gug]

** Description changed:

  Eucalyptus sends registration emails via SMTP to localhost.
  Unfortunately it doesn't set the source IP address to one of the
  localhost addresses. Instead it uses the IP address of an ethernet
  interface.
  
  That falls foul of the default relay control ACL in postfix, when
  postfix is in Smarthost configuration.

+ ==================
+ Karmic release notes:
+ 
+ Confirmation email for new UEC users not sent
+ 
+ When a new user is created in the UEC admin interface an email is sent
+ to the user to confirm the registration. A bug in the smtp configuration
+ of UEC prevents the Cloud controller from accepting and forwarding the
+ confirmation email to the end user. The workaround is to edit the
+ postfix configuration file (/etc/postfix/main.cf) to comment the
+ mynetworks option and add a mynetworks_style option set to host instead
+ and reload postfix (459101):
+ 
+   #mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8 [::ffff:127.0.0.0]/104 [::1]/128
+   mynetworks_style=host
