 Hey guys i have finally set my mail server with dovecot and postfix. I
 configured also a tls and sasl authentication. I have revdns and txt record
 also.

 I have a database with 5000 mails and I want to send to each address a
 mail with my company offer(not a spam just offer to companies with the same
 profile that my company have) How to achive this? Do I need to use for
 example PHP? I was thinking of a cron script that would each 30 minuts send
 i.e 200mails. but i dont know wheter it is possible to send those mails
 only by cron, or i need a for example php script that would be execed each
 20 minutes?

 Afaik it is not possible to use apache with postfix? Only with default
 linux sendmail program?

 Thank you for your suggestions

Do you have their explicit permission to send them this offer?

If not, IT IS SPAM.

I received this database from a government organization because I joined a
export  support program held by polish gov organizations . Those companies
I have mails to had to apply for this also because afaik it is also a
project supported by EU.

Because sendmail and postfix cannot run simulatenusely and I am using my
email. Also my postfix is configured with ssl certs and it would look much
more trusted than simple sendmail i think? Correct me if i am wrong.

Hi,

the key is that by sendmail, we mean the sendmail command. Postfix
has a sendmail-compatible frontend.

You can just use the mail command like so:

$ mail -a From: Your Name yourm...@example.com -s Your Subject
recpm...@example.com EOT Your Text EOT


Run

$ mail --help

to see the precise syntax.

Newer mail(x) versions use -a to attach files.

Hope this helps.

That refers to the postfix sendmail(1)-compatibility interface. It works 
even when postfix is not running.

You've misunderstood what the certificate is for.
The certificate is for your submission clients, to verify the identity 
of the postfix server, and to initiate TLS.
It explicitly is NOT for remote servers to somehow trust your postfix 
*client*




Correct me if i am wrong.


You're wrong :)
Receiving MTAs don't use TLS, and they wouldn't care about your 
certificate's veracity if they did.

Hi,

what is wrong with the sendmail program and a simple shell script?

What is wrong with sending all mails in a batch?

Last but not least, what aspect of your plan dos NOT match plain spamming?

Cheers,
Nik
