CentOS: 5.4
Exim: 4.63
I want to setup Exim to only allow sending mail from the localhost and externally with Plain authentication. I know I should use TLS but not all software supports TLS, I want Exim to use its own userpass file not the local system. I have spent a few days trying to get this setup, so far I have followed this: [URL].... But unsure what to change to remove the need for TLS.

After that I ran the same command with the verbose option:

And this is the output:

For some reason sendmail tried to connect to example.com smtp server and couldn't reach it. I am sure this is because the smtp server for example.com domain is not example.com is mail.example.com. Besides mail.example.com requires authentication, username , password and the smtp port is not the default 25 is 9999. configure sendmail to forward root mail to a smtp server that requires authentication, username, password with a not the default 25 port?
I followed this How To (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix) in order to add smtp authentication to my Postfix installation used as spam filter for my exhange server, and it'seem all ok; the only thing that I don't understand is where I list all the users (with passwords) that I authorize to send mail through my server...

I'm working on configuring a mail server on Ubuntu 8.04 using Postfix 2.5.1 and Courier 0.59.0. I don't want to have to open up specific networks for SMTP relaying, so I want my server to require authenticated SMTP sessions. I'm just confused on how to do this. Here's my main.cf file from Postfix:

It seems like getting this enabled is way more complicated than I expected, assuming I'm not on the wrong path.
I have postfix installed on my computer to let scripts send email. I want to use my isp as the smtp server. In /etc/postfix/main.cf I have told postfix to use gmail as my smtp server using "relayhost = outgoing.verizon.net". However, when I send an email, it gets returned. The full email is included below (my server's address has been replaced with ***.com).

I believe that I need to authenticate to [URL]... from postfix, but I am not sure how to add these directives to the config file.
In order to have greater control over the emails sent out the company I imagined the following scenario.ScenarioDescribing in words what I need.ser sends an email to user@hotmail.com for example, using the smtp of my isp (is the internet).Before the email is sent, the firewall checks if the recipient is blocked transparent, if you are locked out rejects the email.I searched several forums and mailing lists, but did not find scenarios similar to mine.Where found situations in which the mail servers were internally in the company, which is not my case.

View 8 Replies View RelatedWe moved over from Cpanel using Exim. I was wondering if anyone knew of way to convert the mail so when a user logs in they get to all their mail in their folders. I notice exim has a ton of folders while postfix creates files that act like folders which contain all the emails. I sent up 1 of the emails into the our mail folder that was created by Exim and it can be Subscribed to in Outlook with imap but the emails inside doesn't show up. They both appear as text files so I don't know what the difference is.

My employer has started the process of certification with Return Path, and I've been roped in to setting up DKIM, SPF, SenderID etc. so that we are compliant with the certification requirements. Our current e-mail server is qmail, and I'm really not too keen on messing about with the configuration files there. As a safer alternative, I've decided to set up a smarthost relay that only does the DKIM signing. I tried and gave up on Postfix - struggled with understanding the configuration files - and eventually found Exim.
Now, I've got the relaying working perfectly so far. I am NOT running an open relay, my smarthost is configured to only accept SMTP connections from the existing mailserver, and not publicly accessible anyway. The problem I'm having is figuring out exactly where in exim's configuration file I am supposed to configure the DKIM signing options. I've read the official exim documentation and I'm fairly sure about the syntax, I just can't figure out where the options go.
Exim user can get owned by a remote exploit [URL].. I was running Exim 4.63 5.el5_5.1 on CentOS 5.5 x86_64 and my Exim user got owned by that exploit.

I have a problem with ldap client authentication in ubuntu. I am using rhel5 as openldap server and I configured ubuntu as client, when I am trying to login the following message is coming."su: Authentication service cannot retrieve authentication info. Sorry"
But when I do search through "ldapsearch" command output is coming without any errors, Can anybody explain what would be problem.
I'd like to enable SSL authentication in vsftpd.conf but still somehow force plain data transfer; even if the client is capable of SSL data transfer. The way I understand the config, if I set ssl_enable=YES then if client wants to use SSL for data transfers, it can. I wish for force plain data transer, but still have SSL enabled for login. Is this possible with vsftpd?

I have installed Ubuntu 9.10 server x64 and have got apache running.
I am looking for the simplest more robust solution for smtp, pop3 and imap. I have only ever used qmail before and found it a pain to configure and its getting old so I though I should probably try something new. I have not much experience with running pop3 or imap on linux so would love a suggestion on that.
I have a network and am using squid proxy with authentication I want to create another subnet without authentication.
View 1 Replies View Relatedafter installing Debian, I typed the command:
Quote:
update-rc.d -f exim4 remove
to avoid automatic start of this mail server (I use qmail). After several months, I did a reboot and exim is started! Looking at the history, I found this command:
Quote: dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config
Maybe this command has restored the init script of exim?
