Updated 27/06/05
postfix main.cf tweaks
- Spam bounce
- Virtual Domains
- Trim main.cf
- Additional Notes added

This has been in the planning for quite some time, but I just recently got the time and equipment to get it started. Here are my notes so far. I do not cover every step along this process, most of these programs come with well written README or INSTALL files that should not be overlooked. I am very new to postfix, so if anyone spots somthing that should be changed, please post it.

This is without a doubt the easiest virtual mail server I have ever setup.

postfix->MailScanner->postfix->DBMail

Minimum recommended use flags: sasl mysql pam apache2 innodb ssl postfix crypt


If you updated any of your use flags, try the following command to see what might need to be rebuild with the new libraries
# emerge -N world --deep -pv

Here are the packages I am currently using:
    mail-filter/spamassassin 3.0.2-r1
    mail-filter/razor 2.61
    dev-python/pyzor 0.4.0-r1
    mail-filter/dcc 1.2.28-r1
    app-antivirus/clamav 0.83
    mail-mta/postfix 2.1.5-r2
    dev-db/mysql 4.0.24
You have the option to use either just use SASL or SASL with pam_mysql.
Completely your choice.

In order to avoid problems with MailScanner, it is very important that after you emerge razor, you execute the following commands:
Code:
mkdir /etc/razor
razor-admin -create -home=/etc/razor

Razor has been known to create it's log file in /var/spool/postfix/hold, and MailScanner will stop scanning if any files are in this dir.

If you choose just to use sasl, then you will need to emerge dev-libs/cyrus-sasl >= 2.1.20-r2
Which is currently masked. I just used:

Code:
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge -v cyrus-sasl


If you don't want to emerge a masked package and you want to go the other route, then you will need
    dev-libs/cyrus-sasl 2.1.20
    sys-libs/pam_mysql 0.5
I used the MailScanner ebuild from https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36060

I know that there is a dbmail ebuild, but I built it from source - http://www.dbmail.org/

I configured postfix to run in the chroot'd env by executing:
Code:
/usr/share/doc/postfix-2.1.5-r2/examples/chroot-setup/LINUX2


I also had to change the following line in the master.cf
Quote:
smtp inet n - - - - smtpd


All I did was replace the second "n" with a "-". This tells postfix to run in a chroot.

I got postfix working before I made any of the following changes. Mail in and out with no problems. The postfix website http://www.postfix.org/documentation.html has lots of great documentation. If you are new to postfix, like me, I strongly recommend going through the docs.

Next, I setup MailScanner. Make sure postfix is in your use flags! I put it in my portage_overlay, and emerg’d it. Currently, it setups up 2 init scripts, MailScanner and MailScanner-mta. Due to my configuration, I don’t start the MailScanner-mta service and I comment out MailScanner-mta in the /etc/init.d/MailScanner:

Code:
depend() {
        need net # MailScanner-mta
        after postfix
        use logger dns
}


In the /etc/MailScanner/MailScanner.conf, I only changed some basic settings. (setting the Queue paths is required!):
There are many more options to set, but I just wanted to get things working first. Many of those options are just set so that I know that MailScanner is working. Read through the file, it is well commented.
Code:
Incoming Queue Dir = /var/spool/postfix/hold
Outgoing Queue Dir = /var/spool/postfix/incoming
Always Include SpamAssassin Report = yes
Sign Clean Messages = yes
Use SpamAssassin = yes


/etc/mail/spamassassin/local/cf:
Code:
rewrite_header Subject *****SPAM*****
bayes_sql_override_username     "global"
bayes_store_module              Mail::SpamAssassin::BayesStore::SQL
bayes_sql_dsn                   DBI:mysql:spamassassin:localhost
bayes_sql_username              bayesdb
bayes_sql_password              mypassword
use_bayes 1
use_bayes_rules 1
bayes_auto_learn 1
required_hits 5.5
report_safe 2
use_terse_report 1
dns_available yes
skip_rbl_checks 1
use_razor2 1
use_pyzor 1
use_dcc 1
ok_languages all
ok_locales all


For spamassassin, I imported my old bayes_db into my SQL database and could check connectivity by just executing:
sa-learn --dump magic -D

At this point, you should be able to start postfix and mailscanner.

/etc/init.d/postfix start
/etc/init.d/MailScanner start

Send an e-mail to an external account

# echo Test | mutt me@foo.yahoo.com

When you receive the e-mail, check the headers for MailScanner entries.

In order to get SASL w/ TLS working with the chroot'd Postfix, I added the following lines to my /etc/fstab:

/var/lib/sasl2 /var/spool/postfix/var/lib/sasl2 bind bind 0 0
/var/run/mysqld /var/spool/postfix/var/run/mysqld bind bind 0 0

Of course I created the /var/spool/postfix/var/lib/sasl2 and the /var/spool/postfix/var/run/mysqld directories first

I also generated my own certs using:


Code:
cd /etc/ssl/misc/
perl CA.pl -newca
perl CA.pl -newreq
perl CA.pl -sign


And then copying them to /etc/postfix/ssl/

These lines will allow postfix to access the mysql and sasl sockets from the chroot.

For my master.cf, I added the below line under the line for smtp:

Quote:
dbmail-lmtp unix - - n - - lmtp


This is to tell postfix to hand the mail over to dbmail.

Download the DBMail source and unpack it. Read through the README and INSTALL and the INSTALL.postfix for better instructions. You will need to copy the given dbmail.conf to /etc/ and make some changes. The only changes I made were for the database connection.

Currently with this setup, my mail server is working great. Now all I have to do is setup mysql to listen on an external ip address, setup another server with almost the same settings, setup sql replication and I should have some pretty reliable and redundant mail servers. Of course the switchover won't be automatic, yet...


Additional Notes:

Taken from my Wiki entry at dbmail.org

While building my first DBMail server, I was happy to see that the full migration from my old mail server worked almost flawlessly, I ran into one snag. My company has many domains, and most of those domains are just aliases. I knew that I could create an alias for every user for every aliased domain, but that would exponentially increase the size of my alias table, I could have also created and alias like @foo.bar →deliver_to→ @foo.bar.uk, but I wanted to do something a bit cleaner and easier to manage since they are constantly adding and removing alias domains. So what I did was create a table for managing the domains. I named it “dbmail_vdomains” and it’s structure is very minimal. It contains the following columns: id, domain, comment,pridomain, client_idnr.

When I created my user accounts, I used a unique client_idnr for each new domain. So, each user had it’s main alias as user@foo.bar deliver_to user_idnr, and every account and alias for the foo.bar domain uses the same client_idnr. By giving all of the accounts in the same domain the same client_idnr, you can use sql to do some nice things. The next step is to populate the table.

After putting the server up and watching the logs all day long, I noticed that about 50% of all mail was spam, and even worse, it was being sent to non-existing e-mail addresses. I know that postix will deny mail for non-existing users (local_recipient_maps), but when you alias an entire domain, it won’t block e-mail to non-existing users for the aliased domain. So e-mail sent to baduser@foo.bar will immediatly bounce back with a 550, but if it were sent to baduser@foo.bar.uk, then postifx would accept the mail, and then bounce it. Since I am doing spam, content and virus checking for every piece of mail, I didn’t want to waste the resources on this junk. So I implemented the check_recipient_access in the smtpd_sender_restrictions.

The check_recipient_access will basically lookup an e-mail address and will see if the mail server will accept mail for that account. So all-users.cf, uses the dbmail_vdomains and the dbmail_aliases tables joining them using the client_idnr. So it creates a list of all possible e-mail addresses including all aliases including all aliased domains. When postfix is receiving an e-mail, it will check the recipient e-mail address to see if it accepts mail for that address. If it finds an e-mail address that matches, it will return, OK and the mail will be accepted and processed, if no e-mail address is found, it will return “REJECT”, and postfix will reject the mail, not accepting it for processing. So far my mail server has rejected over 50,000 pieces of mail because of this. The overhead of looking up the e-mail address is much much less than processing mail that couldn’t be delivered in the first place.

Good luck

I have set it up, and it looks pretty good. I just have to do some more reading on it.

Thanks

I started writing some scripts to make the migration from Qmail/Vpopmail/SQL to the above configuration easier. I posted them on the dbmail wiki if anyone is ever interested.

Ok, this is killing me..

I've been trying to get SMTP AUTH working from past one and half weeks now but nothing seems to work

I will paste the configuration files below..

I'm using the howto on http://high5.net/howto

The problem is that postfix does'nt even bother to check for smtp auth. Even if nothing is specified, it just relay's the mail if the mynetworks parameter is satisfied

I am confused on how to start saslauthd as it only supports

I tried with shadow but nothing worked.

The problem is that postfix is not even querying for the user name and the password. What might be the problem?



Thx in advance

I'm sorry, but I have never setup a postfixadmin system. You should try comparing your main.cf with the one I have posted above.

One thing I see is that your smtpd_sasl_local_domain, is set. I have read a few posts that setting it to a value might cause problems.

I would start with changing your my networks field to display the following.
Code:

mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8


This way when you send an email from another computer (besides your server) inside your network it's treated like it's authenticating from outside your network. I would also tail -f /var/log/mail/current (while sending an email) to give a better idea where the problem lies.

I think you might be missing some sasl entries in your main.cf here's what I have.
Code:

smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtpd_sasl2_auth_enable = yes
smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes
smtpd_sasl_local_domain =
smtpd_sasl_application_name = smtpd
smtpd_recipient_restrictions =
        permit_sasl_authenticated,
        permit_mynetworks,
        check_relay_domains


Also I'm using saslauthd in my /etc/sasl2/smtp.conf. I don't think your supposed to have two pwcheck_method.

If all fails you might want to try using pam_mysql. Msalerno has some really good documentation on it above.

The dbmail_vdomains needs to be created by hand, correct? if so is this compatible with the way dbmail does things.
Do i need to enter the domains by hand?

also could you give the sql codes for this.

Correct, the dbmail_vdomains needs to be manually created and populated.
I have updated the howto to include the sql to create and populate the table.
I don't know of any reason that this change would effect dbmail. It is working great over here.

FYI. I also found an error regarding populating the table and updated the howto.
Basically, the seconday domains need to be put in with a @ before the domain name.

I have done everything you said in the howto, but it seems that i can't send an email to dbmail.

Postfix collects all the email, and i can see it in mailq, but it doesn't seem to get deliverd to dbmail.

The output that i get is:
Code:

Apr 27 17:55:03 mail postfix/pickup[3133]: 286DA61C5B: uid=0 from=<root>
Apr 27 17:55:03 mail postfix/cleanup[3518]: 286DA61C5B: hold: header Received: by mail.mooktakim.com (Postfix, from userid 0)??id 286DA61C5B; Wed, 27 Apr 2005 17:55:03 +0100 (BST) from local; from=<root@mooktakim.com> to=<mma@mooktakim.com>
Apr 27 17:55:03 mail postfix/cleanup[3518]: 286DA61C5B: message-id=<20050427165502.GA3514@mail.mooktakim.com>


As you can postfix knows the email is being sent. but it doesn't go to dbmail.

dbmail is working i think becuase i can access it through imap.

Is the lmtp daemon running?

Do you have this line in your main.cf?
mailbox_transport = dbmail-lmtp:localhost:24

If you post your configs, I'll see what I can find.

Does the output of `ps -ef | grep dbmail` show dbmail-pop3d dbmail-imapd and dbmail-lmtpd ?

What i have is exactly what you posted.

I'll copy it here anyway:

mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8

smtpd_tls_cert_file = /etc/postfix/newcert.pem
smtpd_tls_CAfile = /etc/postfix/cacert.pem

smtpd_tls_loglevel = 1
smtpd_tls_received_header = yes
smtpd_tls_session_cache_timeout = 3600s
tls_random_source = dev:/dev/urandom

smtpd_recipient_restrictions = reject_non_fqdn_sender, reject_non_fqdn_recipient, reject_unlisted_recipient, reject_unknown_sender_domain, reject_unknown_recipient_do

smtpd_client_connection_count_limit = 15
disable_vrfy_command = yes


I really have no idea why this is. I've also tried with:
Code:
smtpd_recipient_restrictions =  permit_mynetworks,
                                permit_sasl_authenticated,
                                reject_unauth_destination

Becuase i had problems with that in the past.

I know dbmail is amazing. But for god sakes some documentation is needed. There is nothing in their homepage.

Looks good, what about the output of the ps command

ps -ef | grep dbmail

Do you have verbose logging enabled for postfix and lmtp?
Just add the -v

/etc/postfix/master.cf

smtp inet n - y - - smtpd -v
dbmail-lmtp unix - - n - - lmtp -v

In your /etc/dbmail.conf

Increase the trace levels to increast verbose output to your maillog, then post any errors.

Did you restart postfix and dbmail-lmtp after making the changes ?

If you installed from source, the way to uninstall is to remove the installed files, the binary files in /usr/local/sbin, the config file in /etc and the man files in /usr/local/man

A rm would work just as good as an unmerge

Ahhh, that is good information to have!!

Comment out the line that reads:

header_checks = regexp:/etc/postfix/header_checks

FYI - MailScanner is now in Portage as a masked package.

it now only works when i disable dns lookup (INSTALL.postfix.gz):
Code:
-o disable_dns_lookups=yes


I would rather have this turned on :D

Anyway for the time being it works well. Its SUPER fast!!!

Does anyone know of a better admin, then mensioned, already. Since that admin is just unnecesarily complicated.
