Yes.
And if I do, how do I
disable relay completely on that server? I don't want users to use it
but to only be able to use ESMTPD-SSL. I thought using smtpaccess for
this might work but from what I understand, that also effects
ESMTPD-SSL(?).
The default settings will be mostly suitable. smtpaccess will only
grant relaying to some of the RFC reserved networks, which you're
probably not using, and AUTH is disabled for esmtpd. What you'll need
to do is add LOGIN and PLAIN to the ESMTPAUTH_TLS setting in the esmtpd
file. This will allow users to use AUTH only on secured connections.
2) How do I make ESMTPD-SSL to force AUTH login (using password)
If you don't set RELAYCLIENT in smtpaccess, then AUTH is the only way
users will be able to relay messages.
from
what I read in the FAQ, by default it seems it uses the From address
and just makes sure that the user exists?
I'm not sure what gave you that impression, but it's not correct.
I want it to make the user
AUTH login and check PAM for the password (like it does for IMAP and
POP). If I set AUTH_REQUIRED=1 in ESMTPD-SSL it just gives me an error
saying:
You don't really need to set that.
but yet it didn't ask me to login (using Thunderbird to test it out).
Is this a client malfunction or a setting I'm missing.
It's a setting you missed.
Edit -> Account settings -> Outgoing Server -> Check "Use name and
password" and set "Use secure connection" to either TLS or SSL.
I tried to play
with the smtpaccess file also and it still doesn't seem to get it
working how I'd like it to.
You don't need to do that either.
Thanks in advance for any help offered!! :-) This is a test server so
no urgency.
Once you get things set up the way you want them, I'd start over from
scratch and make the smallest number of changes from the default
configuration that you can, and still achieve what you want. Setting
options while experimenting can lead to odd behavior later.
