Nagios + Postfix

[Martyn]

I have tried for the last few hours buy I can not resolve it, where have I
gone wrong, below is my config

############################################################################
#################################
# 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

# 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_use_tls = yes
smtpd_tls_session_cache_database = btree:${data_directory}/smtpd_scache
smtp_tls_session_cache_database = btree:${data_directory}/smtp_scache

# See /usr/share/doc/postfix/TLS_README.gz in the postfix-doc package for
# information on enabling SSL in the smtp client.

myhostname = chetnet.co.uk
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
mailbox_size_limit = 0
recipient_delimiter = +
smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks permit_inet_interfaces

Thanks

Google does though. Search for 'postfix domain change'. You're probably
going to be most interested in mydomain, myhostname and perhaps myorigin.

Yup, I'd reject that too. cna.localhost isn't a valid hostname or domain.

Yes, the install guide has to assume that the MTA packages and configuration
for whatever system you are using are sane. It's your responsibility to make
sure they are. Doing that is beyond the scope of nagios.
