[ZendTo] Issues with sending to external users

[Ken Etter]

Its been a while since I setup my ZendTo server, but here are some
things to check:

* Make sure "defaultEmailDomain" in the ZendTo preferences.php is set
correctly.
* Make sure "myhostname" and "mydestination" in /etc/postfix/main.cf
have the correct info.
* Make sure /etc/mailname, /etc/hostname, and /etc/hosts have the
correct info.

No I think its this line
 
Received: from zendto.xxxxx.ca (localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1])
 
Gmail/Yahoo etc email servers are rejecting these emails form the
zendto instance

Is the issue theapache at localhost address?  There might be other ways to
deal with this, but you can masquerade the mail sender.
    Open your main.cf file
 	   vi /etc/postfix/main.cf
    Append following parameter
 	   smtp_generic_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/generic
    Open /etc/postfix/generic file
 	   vi /etc/postfix/generic
    Insert this line into generic
 	   apache at localhost sender at your_domain
( mailto:sender at your_domain) 
    Create or update generic postfix table
 	   postmap /etc/postfix/generic
    Restart postfix
 	   /etc/init.d/postfix restart

Hello all I am having an issue sending to external users.  They do not
get the email.  I think I found the issue but I don’t know where to
change these settings.  I grabbed the email header and it is showing
this:
 
Received: from zendto.xxxxx.ca (localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1]) by
zendto.xxxxx.ca (8.14.4/8.14.4) with ESMTP id v0CJF2NS002063; Thu, 12

Date: Thu, 12 Jan 2017 14:15:01 -0500
Message-ID: <201701121915.v0CJF1NN002062 at send.utoronto.ca>

Any help woul be appreciated.
 
There is an smtp setting in php.ini
 
[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
; http://www.php.net/manual/en/mail.configuration.php#ini.smtp
( http://www.php.net/manual/en/mail.configuration.php#ini.smtp) 
SMTP = zendto.xxxxx.ca
; http://www.php.net/manual/en/mail.configuration.php#ini.smtp-port
( http://www.php.net/manual/en/mail.configuration.php#ini.smtp-port) 
smtp_port = 25

Is there anwhere else???
