Re: domain name as accept from source
Ok cheers. Thanks to your help I've got it working with the cron job and the table. When I get a chance I'll take a look at improving it along the lines you suggest.

Re: domain name as accept from source
Thanks I think that is what I was looking for. I did try to RTFM but missed that. As for the authentication. Simplicity. When I first set this up years ago I struggled to get it working. This list helped me and after that I pretty much left it alone. I'm as far from 'advanced' when it comes to email protocols as you could get. Please do not hesitate to put me right but my thinking is that as opensmtpd is only relaying, and will only accept outbound from one ip, and will only accept inbound for my domain I don't really need to authenticate ? In fact I'm not even sure what I'd be authenticating ? Again please tell me why I'm mistaken if that is the case :) Kind Regards Lee ecigsoutlet www.ecigsoutlet.co.uk www.facebook.com/ecigsoutlet On 14/09/17 22:00, Thomas Bohl wrote: Is there a way I can use a domain name for accept from source as I'd rather not have to login and edit the config when my ip changes ? You could write a script that resolves your hostname, puts the IP into a netaddr table and calls "smtpctl update table sources". Run by cron. Is there a reason not to use authentication? -- You received this mail because you are subscribed to misc@opensmtpd.org To unsubscribe, send a mail to: misc+unsubscr...@opensmtpd.org

domain name as accept from source
Hi Quick bit of background. I've started using opensmtp about 5 years ago I think when I wanted to upgrade my servers at a data centre but they had changed the rules , were blocking port 25 outbound and wanted me to use there mail relay. I put opensmtpd on a little arm board in my house listening on 2525 and things worked well enough for me. Then when I moved house I moved opensmptpd to a vps which is where it runs now. I am in the process of getting rid of my last server and have setup a mail server just for my personal email on my own domain at home but where I live now my home broadband blocks port 25 inbound ! The only reason for the background is so when i paste the smtp.conf you don't think what the hell is he doing. Feel free to think that any way :) Though my home ip rarely changes it is not static and cannot be. So I am attempting to use opensmtp as a relay both directions. Inbound comes in on port 25 and out to my home sever on port 250. Outbound come in on 2525 - listen on venet0:0 port 2525 hostname picmail.***.co.uk listen on venet0:0 port 25 hostname picmail..co.uk tag RLAY listen on lo port 10028 tag DKIM accept from any tagged RLAY for domain "lee.me.uk" relay via smtp://*.freemyip.com:250 accept tagged DKIM for any relay accept from source 82.*.**.91 for any relay via smtp://127.0.0.1:10027 #accept from source *.freemyip.com for any relay via smtp://127.0.0.1:10027 - Just working on the outbound part atm accept from source 82.*.**.91 works accept from source *.freemyip.com does not (resolves to above ip, my home ip) Is there a way I can use a domain name for accept from source as I'd rather not have to login and edit the config when my ip changes ? -- Kind Regards Lee -- You received this mail because you are subscribed to misc@opensmtpd.org To unsubscribe, send a mail to: misc+unsubscr...@opensmtpd.org
