Mail system implementation based on Postfix, Dovecot and Amavis.

• Common infrastructure for nethserver-mail-server and nethserver-mail-filter, Postfix-based.
• Relay
• Queue parameters: age + message size
• MX record configuration
• Disclaimer (based on Amavis)

Postfix example: :

postfix=service
   ...
   AccessPolicies=
   AlwaysBccStatus=disabled
   AlwaysBccAddress=
   MessageQueueLifetime=4
   MessageSizeMax=20000000
   MessageSizeMin=1048576
   MxRecordStatus=enabled
   ContentInspectionType=default
   ConnectionsLimit=
   ConnectionsLimitPerIp=

• AccessPolicies: A comma separated list of values. Obsoletes SubmissionPolicyType prop. Currently defined values are smtpauth and trustednetworks.
• smtpauth enable SMTP/AUTH on port 25, otherwise it is enabled only on 587 and 465 submission ports
• trustednetworks allow relay from any host in trusted networks (green network included).
• AlwaysBccStatus {enabled,disabled}: if enabled any message entering Postifx mail system is copied to the given AlwaysBccAddress.
• AlwaysBccAddress: an email address that always receives a message copy (controlled by AlwaysBccStatus).
• MxRecordStatus {enabled,disabled}: if enabled add smtp, imap, pop and pop3 aliases into /etc/hosts and configure smtp as MX record value.
• ContentInspectionType {default,amavisd-after-queue}:
• default, apply the default content inspection type, depending on what packages are installed (i.e. nethserver-mail-filter)
• amavisd-after-queue, process messages through amavisd-new. nethserver-mail-common uses amavis to append disclaimers to submitted messages

Install nethserver-mail-dev package: :

yum install nethserver-mail-dev 

Create or modify an existing domain record. Then set TransportType prop to SmtpSink: :

db domains setprop test.tld TransportType SmtpSink
signal-event domain-modify test.tld

Start the smtp-sink server: :

/usr/sbin/smtp-sink -L -c -u postfix unix:/var/spool/postfix/smtp-sink 128

Execute smtptest command (see command help for details): :

/sbin/e-smith/smtptest --from sender``example.com --to rcpt1``test.it --addr 10.1.1.4 --ehlo testhelo.test.it --subject 'Test message' 

Execute "smtp-source":http://linux.die.net/man/1/smtp-source command (from postfix package): :

smtp-source -c -l 32000 -m 50 -N -f sender``yourdomain.tld -t test``test.it -S TEST-SMTP-SOURCE -s 5 <HOST-IP-ADDRESS>
