SMTP Auth question
Hallo, I would to like to enable SMTP authentication, as an option feature for our users, but I have some questions before doing so. 1st: Is it possible to enable it, without Cyrus of Dovecot? I do not want to install Cyrus of Dovecot on my gateway. 2nd: As far as I understand, there is an option to use SMTP auth for mail submission only. Right? Thanks, Peter

You do NOT need Cyrus IMAP or other services 2nd: As far as I understand, there is an option to use SMTP auth for mail submission only. Right? You choose how you want to use it. Many administrators enforce (require) SASL on the submission port (587) as well as options to use TLS. Brian

Thank you Brian, Sorry, to bug you, but, do you have any link to read how to enable the SMTP Auth? My plan is to enable it (first for selected users and later for all users (in the openLDAP). All how-tos I have found so far are with Cyrus or Dovecot. P. - Αρχικό μήνυμα - Απο: Brian Evans - Postfix List grkni...@scent-team.com Προς: postfix-users@postfix.org Κοιν.: Στάλθηκε: 8:08 μ.μ.
