When I upgrade to Hardy Heron, it looks like I'll have an easier time getting mail to work.
Here is an Ubuntu-specific recipe that looks like it will do the job:
https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/server/C/postfix.html
Currently, my mail service is working as long as I don't try to send mail from a remote machine. For instance, if I have a laptop configured to send mail outgoing mail to my server and am connecting through an untrusted network in a coffee shop or a friend's house, I am unable to connect to the server. This must be fixed.
There are several differences between my existing /etc/postfix/main.cf config and the recipe linked above:
Current | Proposed |
---|---|
smtpd_sasl2_auth_enable = yes | smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes |
smtpd_sasl_local_domain = finninday.net | smtpd_sasl_local_domain = |
broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes | |
smtp_use_tls = yes | |
smtp_tls_note_starttls_offer = yes |
However, my server currently generates the correct list of available services when starting a transaction:
root@weasel:/etc/default# telnet localhost 25 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost.localdomain. Escape character is '^]'. 220 weasel.finninday.net ESMTP Postfix (Ubuntu) ehlo weasel.finninday.net 250-weasel.finninday.net 250-PIPELINING 250-SIZE 10240000 250-VRFY 250-ETRN 250-STARTTLS 250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 250 8BITMIME quit
It even offers the correct services to remote machines:
[rday@snapper ~]$ telnet finninday.net 25 Trying 24.21.185.50... Connected to finninday.net. Escape character is '^]'. 220 weasel.finninday.net ESMTP Postfix (Ubuntu) ehlo weasel.finninday.net 250-weasel.finninday.net 250-PIPELINING 250-SIZE 10240000 250-VRFY 250-ETRN 250-STARTTLS 250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 250 8BITMIME quit
