[SOLVED] sending mail via telnet not sending to cc address

socalheel · 10-02-2013, 03:19 PM

title pretty much says it all.

when i log into my server on port 25 to send a mail message (with netcat or telnet, both give the same issue). when i set the cc: address, the cc recipient isn't sent the message.

any ideas why?

here is my message and the logs for the message.

Code:

[root@server01 scripts]# nc localhost 25
220 server01.place.com ESMTP Postfix
ehlo legitdomain.com
250-server01.place.com

250 2.1.5 Ok
data
354 End data with <CR><LF>.<CR><LF>
subject: from deez
cc: myemail@gmail.com
reply-to: myemail@gmail.com

this was cc'd to my gmail account and i bet i don't get it.

does the header show cc:mymail@gmail.com

make sure to reply to this.

Putting Cc: in the body of the message is information for the mail client only, you need to actually add a recipient - here's an example from Wikipedia:

Quote:

S: 220 smtp.example.com ESMTP Postfix
C: HELO relay.example.org
S: 250 Hello relay.example.org, I am glad to meet you
C: MAIL FROM:<bob@example.org>
S: 250 Ok
C: RCPT TO:<alice@example.com>
S: 250 Ok
C: RCPT TO:<theboss@example.com>
S: 250 Ok
C: DATA
S: 354 End data with <CR><LF>.<CR><LF>
C: From: "Bob Example" <bob@example.org>
C: To: "Alice Example" <alice@example.com>
C: Cc: theboss@example.com
C: Date: Tue, 15 January 2008 16:02:43 -0500
C: Subject: Test message
C:
C: Hello Alice.
C: This is a test message with 5 header fields and 4 lines in the message body.
C: Your friend,
C: Bob
C: .
S: 250 Ok: queued as 12345
C: QUIT
S: 221 Bye
{The server closes the connection}
