Hello,

I'm struggling with the question if it is possible to authenticate
clients (optionally) with a client certificate. I found some docs about
dovecot implementing this [1] and was wondering if courier (SMTP) could
also be used with this?

I could not find something about it in the docs.


The desired use would be that we operate a local CA and issue
certificates that contain a user name (e-mail-address) as common name
and courier authenticates this certificate as the given user, so that
logging and processing will continue have the sender's data.

Also described further in the esmtpd-ssl configuration file, under  
TLS_EXTERNAL.


For this to work, the certificate subject needs to specify whatever would be  
used for the login ID when authenticating manually.
