So, I,ve setup up postfix in my server following this article https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-and-configure-postfix-as-a-send-only-smtp-server-on-ubuntu-16-04. Whe i make the indicated test of the article mails are reviced as root@innovaclub.localdomain instead of the desire @innovaclub.org. I uncommented the myorigin = /etc/mailname line and edited the mailname file adding innovaclub.org in the firstline but still not working. Any help will be much appreciatte.

You need to delete the other SPF records - you should only have 1, and I can see 3 currently. And the record should be (without any quotes):
@hansen thanks ! that did the trick hostname was set to “innovaclub” instead to innovaclub.org. Now its working.
First step done. Now I have to config php to send mails trought smtp postfix to avoid going directly to gmail spam folder.
Hi @arieltoledo
Try running this command to validate the specific
myorigin
:You can show all the Postfix configuration by running just
postconf
. Remember to restart Postfix after changing the configuration - otherwise it isn’t active.But it might be Apache/PHP that is actually doing this, which can be fixed by setting the
sendmail_path
correctly by adding the following line to the Apache vhost config:Or it can again be overruled by Postfix
