I was missing:

smtp_sasl_mechanism_filter  
= !gssapi


Something about GSSAPI auth meant it was tried first, failed, and failed 
permanently.


Disabling that, and it works.

This is very much nearly what I got to. Note though that outbound port 
25 is blocked, but my smarthost listens on the submission port as well 
if auth is used. So my relayhost line says:


relayhost=my.smarthost.com:587

On my relayhost maillog I can see the connection appears, but mails are 
bounced with:


530 5.7.0Authentication required (in reply to MAIL FROM command)


$ cat /etc/postfix/relay_password
your.smarthost.com  yourusername:yourpassword

I have tried
my.smarthost.comusername:password

and

[my.smarthost.com]:587username:password

and

my.smarthost.com:587username:password

With various entries in main.cf to co-incide with these... (and 
remembering to run postmap each time).




$ postmap /etc/postfix/relay_password
$ service postfix reload


You can check out the commented option in the man pages or
http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html
if you're interested later/have some spare time/if it doesn't work ;-)



The line I get in the logs on my smarthost is:

Jan 11 18:31:35 gate sendmail[17441]: STARTTLS=server, 
relay=188.29.xxx.xxx.threembb.co.uk [188.29.xxx.xxx], 
version=TLSv1/SSLv3, verify=NO, cipher=DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA, bits=256/256


The mail just bounces back to the sender, nothing else on the smarthost 
logs.

I forgot to mention that I had already googled. My smarthost doesn't use
SASL, just STARTTLS - I have tried all those options to no avail.. Perhaps
some combination of options might work... but which... I was just hoping
someone else had done this before.

the first google hit on 'postfix smarthost' says to change/add the line

 relayhost = your.server.com

to the main.cf file, and restart postfix...seems simple enough.


this is the 2nd or third hit, it expounds on that and shows how to setup 
SASL authentication with the smarthost...

 I would recommend reading up on the configurations .

[CentOS] Centos 6.2 Postfix - forward through SMTP smarthost with SMTP-AUTH

2012-01-10 Thread Giles Coochey

Hi All,

I have set up three servers in a development environment. Via CR they're 
updated to Centos 6.2


It appears that these servers have postfix installed on them by default, 
which unfortunately I'm not very well acquainted with.


All I want is a quick and dirty way to enable these hosts to send email 
through my own SMTP host.


My (sendmail) SMTP host uses SMTP AUTH on a non-standard port and my dev 
(virtual env) runs off my laptop, so a dynamic IP.


Does anyone have a quick and dirty configuration for setting up postfix 
to forward all remote mail through my smarthost?


I'm guessing that I can put the hostname, the port, and the username and 
password somewhere in the postfix configuration and it will just work...


Many Thanks in Advance,

Giles
