Description
Hi, I have postfix and dovetail installed and working. I can send a message from a remote system to the mail server, and I receive the message as expected. My trac installation is at /www/virtualhosts/trac. I installed email2trac using the Install guide (made an RPM and used yum https://oss.trac.surfsara.nl/email2trac/wiki/Email2tracInstallation). No errors on install - everything looks clean. My config file is included at the bottom of this message. *First question.* The example *project* option in email2trac.conf shows "/data/trac/jouvin". If I put "/www/virtualhosts/trac" I get an error when testing email2trac: [tmp]# email2trac --project trac < msg.txt Not a valid project name: trac, valid names are: [] or set parentdir in the [DEFAULT] section What should I have for *project*? *Second question.* I'm a little unclear on setting up Postfix to work with email2trac. In the mail server documentation there is this hint under Postfix: "Please note that postfix seemingly runs commands from the alias definition file as user "nobody", even if the rest of it is running as user "postfix". *So please assure that the MTA_USER is set to nobody, not to postfix!*" In the Install documentation, I see this: "*Pay attention to the MTA_USER and TRAC_USER, they are not something you can ignore! The default are for MTA (postfix) and TRAC_USER (apache2)*" And that's how I set up configure.in prior to building/installing. *What should MTA_USER be, if not postfix *(my mail server)*? * *Third question* Do you have a working postfix/email2trac install, and if so could you copy one of your trac alias lines? I'm not sure what user should go here. tracproj: "|/usr/bin/email2trac <see command line options> /etc/email2trac.conf [DEFAULT] project: /www/virtualhosts/trac debug: 0 black_list: MAILER-DAEMON@ drop_spam : 1 drop_alternative_html_version: 1 email_quote: > html2text_cmd: ignore_trac_user_settings: 0 inline_properties: 1 reply_all : 0 spam_level: 5 strip_quotes: 0 strip_signature: 0 ticket_update: 1 ticket_update_by_subject: 1 umask: 022 verbatim_format: 1 reply_all: 1

Replying to adrya.stembridge@…:
If this is the only entry, nothing. Now email2trac is looking for a project definition:
email2trac support multiple trac installations.
The default are:
It depends on your installation if it uses this values. With the new version 2.8.0 the errors will be reported to syslog.
I multiple working lines. Here is an example for email2trac:
/etc/email2trac.conf
You can add another section:
Then the --project trac works as expected
