You can configure tmda-ofmipd a number of ways. You can run it on a separate port such as 8025 and have users point their mail clients there. Or, you can use regular old port 25 if the machine does not receive incoming mail. > But to allow SOME users to use this and not others, I'd have to use > a separate port, and include that in some sort of advanced setup > directions (or could this process be configured to just pass the > message through if an environtment var / flag indicated the user did > not want preprocessing... tmda-ofmipd does not currently have a "passthrough" method for users without a TMDA setup, but it's on the TODO list. However, if the user has a minimal TMDA setup (I think only ~/.tmda/crypt_key is needed for tmda-ofmipd), and his ACTION_OUTGOING is set to 'bare', that's effectively the same thing. tmda-ofmipd will process the mail, but won't change the addresses in the message. See http://mla.libertine.org/tmda-users/2003-11/msg00383.html Also, see TMDA FAQ 7.6. It is Exim specific, but might give you some ideas for your own SMTP server. > Setting BOUNCE_ENV_SENDER could be done globally based on the domain > of the sending user - or does this have to be done in the smtp > proxy? BOUNCE_ENV_SENDER is only used for challenge messages sent by TMDA in response to incoming mail. See http://tmda.net/config-vars.html#BOUNCE_ENV_SENDER > Does tmda-ofmipd proxy the authentication when it sends to the local > smtp server? We don't allow ANY unauthenticated smtp No, because that would be double authentication, which seems unnecessary. If the user has successfully authenticated with tmda-ofmipd, shouldn't that be enough? By default, tmda-ofmipd will invoke the /usr/sbin/sendmail command on the local system to inject the message which doesn't do any authentication. That said, there is a way to do the double authentication if you really need it. > One other question about this - I bet I know the answer cause you > HATE programs that lose mail... the ofmipd doesn't return ok until > the local smtp does - right? ;-) Right. _____________________________________________ tmda-users mailing list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) http://tmda.net/lists/listinfo/tmda-users
