I want to move the SMTP job to another server, to offload the receiving server a bit. Is there any simple way of exporting valid user accounts? will exporting each mailbox from the db, to a txt file, and running postmap on that file be sufficient? [14:02:51] <roe_> milligan_, that is one way to do it [14:03:16] <roe_> is this new server going to be on the same lan? [14:03:23] <milligan_> yeah [14:03:36] <milligan_> Just have the SMTP server do its lookups on the receiving servers db? [14:03:40] <roe_> why not let it connect to the db? [14:03:44] <milligan_> yeah. [14:04:21] <milligan_> Thought about that, but this is also going to be an SMTP server for some exchange users aswell, so I think I'll have to generate txt file and do the postmap on it. [14:04:41] <roe_> oh exchange, how I love the [14:05:47] <milligan_> hehe [14:05:50] <milligan_> tell me 'bout it. [14:06:45] * PcPixel prefers Kerio ro Exchange, but thats a diff topic :P [14:07:08] <milligan_> roe_, so, how would I also export passwords? I want the smtp server to require authentication. [14:07:22] <roe_> from exchange? [14:07:34] <roe_> or from the receiving mail server? [14:07:51] <milligan_> receiving. [14:08:10] <milligan_> If I go for the postmap solution, I'd need a textfile with usernames and passwords, right ? [14:08:17] <roe_> aye [14:08:32] <milligan_> what's the format? [14:08:42] <milligan_> email at domain dot tld <tab> password <tab> OK [14:08:43] <milligan_> ? [14:08:48] <roe_> someone stop me when I am wrong... [14:09:19] <roe_> postmap creates a berkelydb for you, which supports a data pair <field one> <field two> [14:09:41] <roe_> it creates a berkleydb I think only if you have hash:.. in main.cf [14:09:44] *** AcTiVaTe has joined #postfix [14:10:08] <roe_> there are other options available to you, I do not know how many... maybe the bot does [14:10:09] <roe_> !postmap [14:10:10] <knoba> roe_: "postmap" : a command to 'compile' text files to hash databases. Example: a file transport will be converted to transport.db by running 'postmap transport'. Your main.cf will contain something like transport_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/transport (without the '.db') [14:10:30] <roe_> I guess I was mostly correct... [14:10:41] <milligan_> right [14:10:49] <milligan_> so, user at domain dot tld <space> user_password [14:10:57] <milligan_> postmap on that file, and I should be good to go on authentication [14:11:36] <milligan_> question that arises then, is that passwords are hashed in the db. How do I extract them ? :P [14:11:42] <roe_> the only downside is you need to know everyone's password, and keep a plain text file with all of those passwords there [14:12:06] <roe_> you can't [14:12:11] <milligan_> hm [14:12:12] *** Draecos has joined #postfix [14:12:54] <roe_> you could probably brute force them in a 10-800years, depending on the computing power and type of hash [14:13:07] <roe_> but that isn't much help [14:13:10] <milligan_> maybe I'll buy a new monstermachine that can crack them all [14:13:18] <milligan_> I s'pose you're right. [14:13:39] <milligan_> I guess I'll have one postmap hash file, and do the rest of the lookups directly to the db. [14:13:47] <AcTiVaTe> When having email troubles I usually just change the pwd and then have the user change it back. [14:13:55] <roe_> is the active directory server also on your lan [14:13:56] <milligan_> that way I can postmap the exchange wankers, and query the db directly for smtp authentication. [14:14:56] <PcPixel> LDAP would be my only guess [14:15:09] <milligan_> yeah, it is afaik. I'm not the one administering it, luckily. I'm just making a gateway that'll bind them all together. [14:15:13] <milligan_> LDAP is not an option. [14:15:19] <PcPixel> didnt think it would be [14:15:27] <roe_> I've only ever maintained a berkleydb for incoming mail going to postfix, but I think you can get postfix to connect to AD through ldap, not sure if all your users of exchange are AD users but that might be a better route [14:15:45] <PcPixel> roe_: that was my thought, which was why i pitched ldap. but he says its a no go. [14:15:56] <PcPixel> i agree, i really would be hesitant to do ldap on an internet facing machine [14:16:14] <roe_> milligan_, I would remove the word "luckily" from your above statement :) [14:16:58] <PcPixel> ive got a check that if you connect from outside my mail server, you cant use our addresses as "from". how is it this mail message got through? http://pastebin.com/d301f9686 [14:17:00] <roe_> it would only be ldap lookups, the ldap server (AD) isn't world facing, or at least shouldn't be [14:17:21] <PcPixel> roe_: correct, but if the mail server gets hacked and is confiogured to do AD lookups [14:17:24] <PcPixel> youre boned [14:17:36] <lunaphyte_> why? [14:17:53] <PcPixel> if i can comprimise the mail server i can then query the AD for whatever id like [14:17:56] <milligan_> roe_, combining a berkleydb lookup and a db lookup is possible, isn't it ? [14:17:58] <roe_> read only ldap access isn't the worst of the problems [14:18:00] <lunaphyte_> so? [14:18:12] <lunaphyte_> that has nothing to do with postfix. [14:18:12] <PcPixel> i guess it just depends on your paranoia level [14:18:21] <PcPixel> ok [14:18:23] * PcPixel drops it [14:18:48] <roe_> milligan_, I believe you can configure multiple authentication dbs for postfix to check but I haven't done it [14:19:28] <lunaphyte_> PcPixel: show logs of delivery of that message, and your header check [14:19:30] <roe_> PcPixel, I'm assuming the qvii.com is your domain?

[14:29:33] <lunaphyte_> err, *already [14:29:35] <PcPixel> im using them now, i would probably have to think of how [14:29:43] <PcPixel> im still having my morning coffee lo, [14:29:44] <PcPixel> lol [14:30:01] <sysmonk> lunaphyte_: dunno if it's possible in this case [14:30:03] <roe_> the the "return-path" in the header guaranteed to be the address used in the smtp communication? [14:30:16] <PcPixel> yeah, how would you be able to code that [14:30:23] <PcPixel> cause that would be ideal lol [14:30:29] <sysmonk> lunaphyte_: header_checks are done on cleanup, and you can't control them by ip ;/ [14:30:29] <PcPixel> but..... how. [14:30:51] <sysmonk> that is, you can't tell to check headers if user is not authenticated, and not check if he is [14:31:02] <roe_> I always drop back to the log to confirm what email address was declared in MAIL FROM: but if I could rely on the return-path header it would make my life easier [14:31:08] <sysmonk> header_checks are always done (that is, if you enabled them :P ) [14:31:57] <PcPixel> roe_: well wait [14:31:59] *** Tex-Twil has joined #postfix [14:32:00] <PcPixel> roie)_: maybe you could [14:32:08] <PcPixel> no wait damn [14:32:14] <PcPixel> cause you cant tell ti which side of the server its on [14:32:19] *** Tex-Twil has left #postfix [14:32:23] <PcPixel> header_Checks are for all mail correct?

[14:34:09] <PcPixel> first idea that pops to mind is to split the servers apart. have a dedicated out and dedicated in [14:34:16] <PcPixel> then its a non isssue [14:34:21] <lunaphyte_> either unique instances of smtpd, or maybe? address classes. [14:34:25] <PcPixel> brb, service call [14:34:42] <sysmonk> PcPixel: having dedicated in and outs is teh right way anyway [14:34:46] <sysmonk> if you don't have it, then you should :) [14:35:06] <sysmonk> lunaphyte_: address classess won't help too [14:35:51] <roe_> sysmonk, you are of the school of an out.domain.com and an in.domain.com? [14:36:06] <milligan_> It's the smtpd_sasl_type = setting that defines what kind of authentication is used to allow a user to send email, right ? [14:36:54] <milligan_> btw, my entire exchange problem is no more. I was told to leave them alone :) [14:37:01] <sysmonk> roe_: i'm of the school Seperate mail servers for incoming and outgoing email Kung Fu [14:37:04] <sysmonk> ;) [14:38:16] <sysmonk> roe_: ofcorse, if you have 10 mailboxes then you don't care [14:38:21] *** Pazzo has joined #postfix [14:40:12] <roe_> we are growing a virtual environment for our client to host caldav, web, mail, webdav etc... we chose to run postfix on each of their vservers and forward to one gateway, that gateway is also their mx record, [14:40:48] <roe_> we could have gone the route of virtual services instead of virtual machines, but then ssl gets tricky [14:47:58] *** Captain has joined #postfix [14:48:35] <PcPixel> sysmonk: we currently only have 1 for both [14:49:28] <PcPixel> though am i right, that if you had a dedicated inbound that you could do that mail header check with a regexp for your domains? [14:54:52] <milligan_> So, was I right in my assumption? smtpd_sasl_type is the setting that defines what kind of authentication I want to use to verify users that can send email through my server ?

[19:00:25] <riz_> jeeter522 before I said: jeeter522 so? you could add (for example) root: <your_exchange_server> and after postalias /etc/postfix/virtual_alias Obviously if you want to send remote you need to specify the user as pickcoder as suggest..

[19:02:36] <pickcoder> well, I have to wonder where the mail is going to do with no local users [19:02:48] <pickcoder> and without virtuals [19:02:56] <rob0> Sure, mysql people like having users in a DB, and sure, you can do it with flat files. But why? [19:02:59] <pickcoder> s/do/go [19:03:23] <pickcoder> oh nevermind... mysql was stated [19:03:41] <pickcoder> ninext: you can add virtuals without messing with local [19:03:45] <pickcoder> !virtual [19:03:45] <knoba> pickcoder: "virtual" : a way to configure additional domains and user accounts (that do not need to exist in your /etc/passwd).

[21:52:08] <PcPixel> like reject_unknown_client [21:52:29] <sysmonk> PcPixel: a mail server without ptr just shows that it doesn't have an administrator [21:52:40] <pickcoder> or it's a bot [21:52:50] <sysmonk> pickcoder: same thing :) [21:52:55] <pickcoder> not always [21:52:56] <pickcoder> heh [21:52:57] <sysmonk> it's not administered, that's all [21:53:04] <pickcoder> set-it-and-forget-it mentality [21:53:07] <sysmonk> pickcoder: to me it's the same - it's not controlled [21:53:16] <sysmonk> if it's not controlled - i don't want to talk to it [21:53:41] <PcPixel> lol [21:53:42] <PcPixel> i agree w you [21:54:48] <sysmonk> although, if you're talking about 'outgoing' mails ( i.e. you relay your clients mail outside ) then rbls/ptr's are not the solution at all [21:54:51] <pickcoder> If self-hosters knew what they were doing a few years ago, then ISPs wouldn't be blocking port 25 [21:54:55] <sysmonk> they're even discouraged [21:55:16] <PcPixel> yeah i know [21:55:31] <PcPixel> his issue is spomething about his ip falls in some weird subnet and his ISP wont do a reverse for him [21:55:34] <sysmonk> that's another thing why it's good to have seperate in/outs [21:55:53] <pickcoder> PcPixel: too bad..IMO [21:55:55] <pickcoder> get a real ISP [21:55:56] <sysmonk> PcPixel: change the isp.

[21:58:13] <sysmonk> pickcoder: um, what? [21:58:38] <sysmonk> i mean, renting what? [21:58:40] <pickcoder> the additional connections [21:58:44] <sysmonk> ip class? [21:58:46] <pickcoder> yeah [21:59:31] <sysmonk> pickcoder: and, even if they do, that's a bad rent if they can't control ns records / ptr's [22:00:03] <sysmonk> a good provider would atleast make sure to be able to do that, OR (even better) would ask ripe/whatever for additional IP class [22:00:10] <pickcoder> well if they're sharing it with a bunch of other ISPs then maybe the landlord doesn't want a bunch of different PTRs on it [22:00:15] <sysmonk> which isn't a scary thing to do [22:00:34] <PcPixel> ersysmonk: oh yeah, and that me asking peopel to configure their servers properly is bad because "some might not be able to" [22:00:36] <sysmonk> pickcoder: we're back to "change the isp" :) [22:00:40] <pickcoder> heh [22:00:41] <PcPixel> um; its their systems. how cant they [22:00:50] <sysmonk> if you use such an ISP which doesn't have it's own IP class, then change the isp :) [22:01:13] <sysmonk> erPcPixer: ye [22:01:28] <PcPixel> ah well [22:01:29] <PcPixel> :) [22:05:43] *** JoeWulf has joined #postfix [22:06:34] *** programm3rq has joined #postfix [22:06:53] <PcPixel> sysmonk:ok, even with everything in one class the order is getting tightened & cleaned up [22:08:04] *** dty0 has joined #postfix [22:08:38] <programm3rq> So our mail server is set up to honor spf policy-- it rejects messages coming from an illegal host.

[22:50:40] <programm3rq> I haven't found any other domains where it is a CNAME [22:50:44] *** PcPixel has quit IRC [22:50:45] <programm3rq> the reverse almost never matches [22:51:09] *** pirho has joined #postfix [22:52:32] *** Draecos__ has joined #postfix [22:52:41] <Hurup> Never mind i think i got a guide: http://unix.stadia.fi/~pkoistin/postfix/postfix-tls-cacert.shtml [22:53:22] <sysmonk> programm3rq: myorigin is responsible for @domain [22:53:24] <rob0> example.com CANNOT BE a CNAME pointing to a name underneath it. Because then there would be NS and SOA records, which cannot coexist with a CNAME. [22:53:36] <sysmonk> and having example.com cname to abc.example.com ... [22:53:38] <sysmonk> how can that work? [22:53:46] <rob0> it doesn't. [22:53:49] <sysmonk> rob0: yeah, that's what i'm talking about [22:54:19] <rob0> I think old BIND 4 and maybe 8 allowed it, but it's broken. [22:54:29] <rob0> BIND 9 does not allow it.
