Postfix and Gmail Forwarding
- 18 December 2016
You may be familiar with the local mail spool on your Linux system. Often error messages from failed cron jobs are sent there. However this isn’t much use if the server goes down or loses network connectivity. It would be nice to have it send those emails out to an external email inbox instead. That way you can be notified when disks fail in a RAID array or when applications/services fail or produce errors.

My server rack cabinet at home. Built my own router and zip tied a keystone panel so pulling out my rack doesn’t involve disconnecting my speaker wire. Listen to https://youtu.be/WPDZoOKX8ag to hear how much noise this puts out (not really that much). For pix of the underside look at last year’s gallery.
