Postfix - antispam and relay package
-
Guys. Postfix is for sending mails from server to server. This has nothing to do with your client set up. Period.
If you want clients to send mails via MAPI, OWA, Anywhere, ActiveSync, SMTP, SMTPS, PHP Module or whatever you like, you need to set up your mailserver correctly.So, for SMTPS, it would be a port forward port 587&465 to your internal mailserver.
But, again, this has nothing to do with postfix. Don't mix up topics.
If you have no clue how these services need to be seperated don't set up a postfix yourself.
Exactly, so that's why i want to forward client mail sending to the internal one instead.
Just wanted to make sure servers don't use 587 -
I dont understand folks that get into a thread to complain about how bad 'x' product is, and at the end its their own lack of knowledge regarding systems/protocols/ and how things work that makes them fail.
from the begining several users asked about hows mbrax config, right? I remember asking for details etc, and got his denial on share info, so why are we answering this guy? isnt it MUCH MORE SIMPLIER to answer a TECHNICAL question with the background+environment information? I mean… we dont even know which pf version this guy is running....swimming in the dark here...

haha sorry, i'm not very used to asking questions as i can usually find information myself
if anyone still wants info for some reason, it's pfsense 2.2.6-release, no postfix package installed on it (now that i heard about the port forwarding thing i'll use one of our servers), and i still don't know what more info to give :Pi do have issues in general understanding and communicating to people, but at least you guys haven't given up as with many other sites - so that i am grateful for
i'd totally pay for pfsense gold but we use it at work and i'm not in charge of finance/buying stuff -
Well i can't get it to work anyway, it times out when i change the 25 port forward to the postfix server, but i can telnet it no problem.
Thanks for the help still. Not really pfSense related anymore.
edit
yep it's not possible to have a postfix relay server behind pfsense, it times out. been trying for 6 hours. should i file a bug report maybe?
edit
finally managed to get it to work, let's put this to rest. internal postfix server nic did not have a valid gateway, ~15 hours of searching/trying got me "sudo route add -net default gw 192.168.1.1 dev eth1" and it just started working
some config alterations after that and we now have a working spam filter - no thanks to exchange!thanks to everyone that tried to help however, much appreciated!

FYI. If you are in a bind and need a postfix solution, look into Nethserver.

No hardware left over, and we already have a machine in its place with Debian.
It didn't work out though, seems like it can only have one gateway at a time unlike Windows, so it's either spam filter or our website.
Seems like we're gonna have to endure the spam still. -
Se olvidaron del postfix y mailscanner por fin ya va el pfsense 2.3.2 y nada de estos paquetes. Salu2
-
Is this coming o 2.3.2 ?
-
Are there any news about pfsense 2.3 and postfix forwarder?
-
Yes, here.
-
Postfix + MailScanner runs fine here, it just needs manual installation and even survived pfSense update from 2.3.2 –> 2.3.2-p1. :P

Would you please tell us how you installed them to pfSense 2.3.2?
The whole week I've been trying to compile and install the necessary (afaik) packages and I've failed in every possible way.

scroll down to Reply #709
/editthe View config / Search mail / Queue / About / tabs are broken, everything else works great.

- next get those postfix files from github for 2.3.
https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-ports/pull/23/files
- and copy them where they are belong
Can anybody tell how to do this? Get how and copy where?

MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE YOU GO THIS ROUTE!

- Install Postfix via pkg
pkg install postfix
- Next edit:
/conf/config.xml
- and add Postfix to the Service Status and Menu:

Bismarck, you are my hero! And Marcello of course.
The installation is easy (for those knowing the howto) and everything seems to work like a charm.
I don't see any logs, though. Shouldn't there be a mail log in var/log ? -
I don't see any logs, though. Shouldn't there be a mail log in var/log ?
Did you enabled it in the Postfix General Settings > Logging > Destination > /var/log/maillog ?
And check /etc/syslog.conf there should be a line for it:
…
local7.* %/var/log/dhcpd.log
mail. /var/log/maillog*
.notice;kern.debug;lpr.info;mail.crit;daemon.none;news.err;local0.none;local3.none;local4.none;local7.none;security.;auth.info;authpriv.info;daemon.info %/var/log/system.log
auth.info;authpriv.info |exec /usr/local/sbin/sshlockout_pf 15
*.emerg *
…Otherwise, everything will be logged in the system.log facility, which can be very noisy. :P
-
Should it not be "%/var/log/maillog"?
-
Should it not be "%/var/log/maillog"?
My syslog.conf:
root@pfsense:/root# cat /etc/syslog.conf
-cut-
local4.* %/var/log/portalauth.log
local7.* %/var/log/dhcpd.log
mail.* /var/log/maillog
-cut-It's without "%"

The following message comes repeatedly from the pfSense Crash Reporter:
