IMO, SASL AUTh and SMTP over TLS should be urgent, because:

*) it makes SOGo more flexible to connect to SMTP server
*) secure connection is so important today
*) As mentioned in another sogo mailing list thread, each activesync mobile 
client requires 20-40MB memory, isn't it normal to run SOGo on a more powerful 
server to handle more EAS clients?
*) "stunnel"? Postfix (and other MTAs) offers submission (and deprecated SMTPS) 
for years, and it's standard protocol, why stunnel? Why not improve SOGo to 
"fix" it?

I think there are more important things to implement. Many will run it
with a local MTA anyway. And if not, then the MTA will usually be within
the same local (!) network. If someone is able to sniff there, you have
a dramatic problem anyway. And if someone can sniff the local network,
he can probably much easier directly hack into your server, too.

Or use the workaround mentiond in the bug:
stunnel
(Because of that the urgency to implement TLS in SOGo is very low.)

Dear developers,

Just wondering do we have any plan to support SMTP over TLS in SOGo?

They probably would accept a sponsoring to implement this feature...

Any reason why we don't implement this?
Needs time to implement/test/support it, and the endusers won't have any 
benefit from it.




There's a 7-year old ticket, #31, can we have some love to secure smtp 
connection?
https://sogo.nu/bugs/view.php?id=31

We force all end users to send email through port 587 (submission, SMTP over 
TLS). How do you configure secure SMTP connection in SOGo if you run SOGo on a 
separate server without local MTA?

Why no local MTA?
You can then use a smart relay to your "regular" mailserver

[SOGo] Still no plan to support SMTP over TLS?

2016-09-08 Thread Zhang Huangbin
Dear developers,

Just wondering do we have any plan to support SMTP over TLS in SOGo? Any reason 
why we don't implement this?

There's a 7-year old ticket, #31, can we have some love to secure smtp 
connection?
https://sogo.nu/bugs/view.php?id=31

We force all end users to send email through port 587 (submission, SMTP over 
TLS). How do you configure secure SMTP connection in SOGo if you run SOGo on a 
separate server without local MTA?
