qmail +smtp authentication ?
Greetings, I want to setup a personal email server for my domain on my frebsd 4.7S box. I've heard great things about qmail. This lead me to wonder about smtp authentication with qmail as I think that would eliminate the open relay problem. is smtp authentication possible with qmail ? thanks (a link to the FM would be fine.) -Darryl ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

It works just fine for the most part using login auth. The only problem I have it that on each email that is sent, qmail-smtpd exits abnormally. Nothing is destabilized, but if you ever figure it out, send me a line (if you use this). ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

What I do is add in an SMTP AUTH patch to the qmail source before installing. (I'm not sure if there is a clean way to do this with the port; make the port, patch in the changes, make again and then make install seems to work but is long winded!). We use Qmail-LDAP here, so I'm not sure which patch works best for a regular Qmail install - but there are several listed on http://www.qmail.org/top.html . A long time ago, I used Mrs Brisby's patch ( http://www.nimh.org/dl/qmail-smtpd.c ) and it worked okay. A friend of mine pointed me at http://www.qmail.org/qmail-auth-20010105.tar.gz - he said it worked for him. Incidentally, if you haven't found it yet, Life With Qmail (available online at http://www.lifewithqmail.com/lwq.html ) is a really excellent guide to getting everything working, and keeping it that way. -- Herbert. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
