Hi,
I'm using postfix-3.8.5 on fedora40 and having a problem with forwarding
mail from our relay to gmail recipients. We have some users using
~/.forward files to individual gmail accounts. Obviously not ideal, but
I hoped openarc could help alleviate some of those problems.
My best advice when forwarding to gmail is to instead configure the
gmail account to fetch the mail. You will need to enable POP3 (in
dovecot or whatever your IMAP service is) as gmail will not fetch from
an IMAP server, then you can configure gmail to access your server and
fetch the mail from it. This has a number of advantages:
* gmail forgoes it's normal anti-spam filtering when fetching mail in
this manner meaning you won't have issues with mail landing in the Spam
folder or being rejected or dropped.
* You won't have the issue where forwarding SPAM can affect your IP
reputation with gmail.
Note that this only works with gmail, I'm not aware of other major ESPs
that offer this feature.
