Hello,
While trying to learn opensmtpd, amongst other things I am struggeling
with the virtual user handling - for a non virtual domain setup.
From what I have been able to understand so far it seems, as if there
is no way to deliver mails to a lmtp socket, if there is not at least
some reference/mapping to a system user?
accept from any for domain "example.com" recipient <vusers> alias
<aliases> deliver to lmtp "/run/cyrus/lmtp" rcpt-to as nobody
where vusers contains:
[email protected]
However, despite being listed in vusers, when trying to send a mail to
bob, it gets rejected with "550 Invalid recipient". Creating a
systemuser "bob" makes it work. But then I do not need the vusers
table, so I am wondering, is it possible to get along without the need
for a system user?
Now the man page mentions a userbase parameter, and I assume, the
according table has to be in the format of the userinfo table
mentioned in tables(5)?
What then effectively again refers to a system user - just with a
mapping in between.
For virtual aliases you need to have a mapping of a virtual address to a
user:
table vusers { [email protected] = bob }
You might try this:
accept from any for domain "example.com" virtual <vusers> deliver to
lmtp "/run/cyrus/lmtp" rcpt-to
The userbase parameter is handy if you deliver to mailboxes straight
from OpenSMTPD or you want OpenSMTPD to read the users .forward files:
table userinfo { bob = 5000:5000:/var/mail/example.com/bob }
accept from any for domain "example.com" virtual <vusers> userbase
<userinfo> deliver to lmtp "/run/cyrus/lmtp" rcpt-to
Good luck,
Reio
