Postfix configuration

=====================

This page mentions all Postfix configuration parameters, which have to be

modified and/or added in/to the Postfix :file:`main.cf`.

main.cf

-------

Add or replace the following configuration parameters in the global Postfix

configuration file.

The Postfix PostgreSQL client configuration files (:file:`pgsql-{*}.cf`)

mentioned below will be created when vmm will be installed.

.. code-block:: text

 sql      = pgsql:${config_directory}/

 proxysql = proxy:${sql}

 # relocated users from the database

 #relocated_maps = ${proxysql}pgsql-relocated_maps.cf

 # transport settings from our database

 transport_maps = ${proxysql}pgsql-transport_maps.cf

 # virtual domains, mailboxes and aliases

 virtual_mailbox_domains = ${proxysql}pgsql-virtual_mailbox_domains.cf

 virtual_alias_maps = ${proxysql}pgsql-virtual_alias_maps.cf

 virtual_minimum_uid = 70000

 virtual_uid_maps = ${sql}pgsql-virtual_uid_maps.cf

 virtual_gid_maps = ${sql}pgsql-virtual_gid_maps.cf

 virtual_mailbox_base = /

 virtual_mailbox_maps = ${proxysql}pgsql-virtual_mailbox_maps.cf

 # dovecot LDA (only recommended with Dovecot v1.x)

 #dovecot_destination_recipient_limit = 1

 #virtual_transport = dovecot:

 # dovecot lmtp (requires Dovecot ≧ v2.0.0)

 virtual_transport = lmtp:unix:private/dovecot-lmtp

 # dovecot SASL

 smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot

 smtpd_sasl_path = private/dovecot-auth

 smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes

 # Keep smtpd_sasl_local_domain identical to Dovecot's auth_default_realm:

 # empty. Both are empty by default. Let it commented out.

 # Read more at: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Authentication/Mechanisms/DigestMD5

 #smtpd_sasl_local_domain =

 smtpd_sasl_security_options = noplaintext, noanonymous

 #broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes

 smtpd_recipient_restrictions =

  permit_mynetworks

  permit_sasl_authenticated

  reject_unauth_destination

master.cf

---------

.. note:: This step is only necessary if you are still using Dovecot v\ **1**.x

Add the service `dovecot` to Postfix's master process configuration file.

Append this lines:

.. code-block:: text

 dovecot   unix  -       n       n       -       -       pipe

  flags=DORhu user=nobody argv=/usr/local/lib/dovecot/deliver -f ${sender}

  -d ${user}@${nexthop} -n -m ${extension}

The command of the `argv` attribute points to the

:ref:`root SETUID copy of deliver <root-setuid-copy-of-deliver>`.

For more details about the `flags` used above see: `pipe(8)`_.

All other arguments are explained in the Dovecot LDA_ documentation.
