Postfix

Postfix är en mail transfer agent(MTA) som kan skicka och ta emot email. Postfix används ofta tillsammans med Dovecot. Postfix kom redan 1986 men skrevs om 1997, ca 32% av dagens publika mailservrar kör Postfix.

Förberedelse

Öppna port i brandväggen.

• 25 (SMTP)

Och skapa ett A och MX record i DNSen som spekar mot mailservern.

Installation

apt-get install postfix postfix-pcre

Om man vill kunna skicka testmails(swaks) och enkelt styra mailboxen(mutt).

apt-get install mutt swaks

Konfiguration

Konfigurations filerna finns under /etc/postfix

LDAP

Man kan enkelt koppla Postfix mot en LDAP server för autentisering, vilken mail och mailalias en användare ska ha och hur mycket lagring användare får.

Förberedelse

En uppsatt OpenLDAP server med ett postfix schema inlagt. Och en Dovecot server som också är LDAP ansluten.

Installation

apt-get install postfix-ldap

main.cf Detta är main konfigurations filen.

Temporärt kommentera ut följande rader eftersom att Dovecot och TLS inte är konfigurerat i main.cf:

• dovecot_destination_recipient_limit = 1
• smtpd_tls_security_level = may
• smtpd_tls_auth_only = yes
• smtpd_tls_CAfile = /etc/postfix/certs/example-cacert.pem
• smtpd_tls_cert_file = /etc/postfix/certs/mail_public_cert.pem
• smtpd_tls_key_file = /etc/postfix/certs/mail_private_key.pem

Skapa en postmap db fil för din domän.

postmap hash:/etc/postfix/virtual_domains

Starta postfix och anslut mot servern med telnet mot port 25. Prova att skicka EHLO client, då ska du få följande svar:

Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to 127.0.0.1.
Escape character is '^]'.

Testa att ställa en LDAP fråga.

postmap -q user@example.com ldap:/etc/postfix/ldap_virtual_recipients.cf
postmap -q postmaster@example.com ldap:/etc/postfix/ldap_virtual_aliases.cf

Båda frågorna bör ge user@example.com som svar.
