Basic Configuration

/etc/postfix/main.cf

mydomain = domain.net # mydomain = localdomain (localdomain is replaced during installation) myhostname = mail.domain.net # myhostname = <hostname>.localdomain # domain name to use in outbound mail, ex: user@myorigin # send mail as user@$mydomain myorigin = $mydomain # myorigin = $myhostname # domains to receive mail for # add $mydomain mydestination = $myhostname localhost.$mydomain localhost $mydomain # mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases # alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases, nis:mail.aliases # forward mail from the local machine only mynetworks_style = host # mynetworks_style = ${{$compatibility_level} < {2} ? {subnet} : {host}} # compatibility_level = 0 # relay_domains = ${{$compatibility_level} < {2} ? {$mydestination} : {}} # never forward mail from strangers relay_domains = # delivery method: direct or indirect (another smtp server) relayhost = [smtp.internet-provider.fr] # relayhost = (direct delivery to Internet)

hostname

# current hostname hostnamectl status sudo hostnamectl set-hostname mail.domain.fr

/etc/hosts

127.0.0.1 localhost mail.domain.fr ::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback mail.domain.fr

# re-login to see the changes then run hostname -f

TLS encryption for outgoing mail

/etc/postfix/main.cf

smtp_tls_security_level = encrypt smtp_tls_note_starttls_offer = yes smtp_tls_session_cache_database = btree:${data_directory}/smtp_scache

Orange

La box d’Orange bloque le port 25 pour limiter l’envoi de spam. L'envoie d'email doit donc se faire via le smtp d'orange.

/etc/postfix/main.cf

relayhost = [smtp.orange.fr]:587 smtp_sasl_password_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/sasl/orange.conf smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes smtp_sasl_security_options = noanonymous # smtp_sasl_security_options = noplaintext, noanonymous #broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes #smtpd_sasl_local_domain = $myhostname

/etc/postfix/sasl/orange.conf

[smtp.orange.fr]:587 compte@orange.fr:password

# générer la db sudo postmap hash:/etc/postfix/sasl/orange.conf sudo chmod 600 /etc/postfix/sasl/orange.conf # root:root 600 sudo chmod 600 /etc/postfix/sasl/orange.conf.db # root:root 600

TLS encryption for both incoming mail

/etc/postfix/main.cf

smtpd_tls_security_level = may #smtpd_tls_auth_only = no smtpd_tls_key_file = /etc/letsencrypt/live/domain.net/privkey.pem smtpd_tls_cert_file = /etc/letsencrypt/live/domain.net/fullchain.pem smtpd_tls_received_header = yes smtpd_tls_session_cache_database = btree:${data_directory}/smtpd_scache # log level (default 0) smtpd_tls_loglevel = 1 # 0 → no log # 1 → Log on TLS handshake completion # 2 → Also log levels during TLS negotiation # 3 and 4. Use log level 3 only in case of problems. Use of log level 4 is strongly discouraged.

/etc/postfix/master.cf

SMTP Authentication using SASL client with Dovecot

/etc/postfix/main.cf

smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated, permit_mynetworks, reject_unauth_destination smtpd_sasl_path = private/auth

Don't forget to install and configure Dovecot#SASL_client_authentication

DKIM

apt install opendkim opendkim-tools

/etc/opendkim.conf

Domain domain.fr KeyFile /etc/dkimkeys/dkim.key # selectors are used to permit multiple keys under the same organization's domain name Selector mail # prevent trivial reformatting in header and body destroying trust Canonicalization relaxed/simple # if postfix is running in chroot Socket local:/var/spool/postfix/var/run/opendkim/opendkim.sock

/etc/default/opendkim

# generate the key opendkim-genkey -r -s mail -b 2048 -d domain.fr # DNS record containing the public key: mail.txt # private key: mail.private # copy the key sudo mv mail.private /etc/dkimkeys/dkim.key # check the owner of the file (root:root 600) # configuration des droits d'accès # add postfix in the opendkim group sudo adduser postfix opendkim # if postfix is running in chroot sudo mkdir -p /var/spool/postfix/var/run/opendkim sudo chown opendkim:opendkim /var/spool/postfix/var/run/opendkim

Aliases

/etc/aliases

postmaster: <user> root: <user>

# run after modification of the file /etc/aliases sudo newaliases

Test

telnet localhost 25 ehlo localhost # vérifier que les lignes suivantes sont bien affichées # 250-STARTTLS # 250-AUTH mail from: root@domain.fr rcpt to: user@gmail.com data subject: test test . quit

Log

• journalctl
• /var/log/mail.log
• /var/log/mail.err

Mailboxes

By default Postifx will use mbox for the mailbox format.

/etc/postfix/main.cf

# use maildir and store emails in the /home/<user>/maildir directory home_mailbox = maildir/ mailbox_command = # default value

UFW

# allow incoming SMTP (25) to receive emails sudo ufw allow Postfix

Installation

apt install postfix # General type or mail configuration: Internet site # System mail name: domain.fr
