WORK IN PROGRESS -- WORK IN PROGRESS -- WORK IN PROGRESS This patch adds support for delivering mail via a smarthost. In this mode, all accepted mail gets delivered through an SMTP connection to a specific host, statically configured.
1.1 KiB
Smarthost client mode
As of version 1.6 (2020-XX), chasquid supports operating as a smarthost client.
In this mode, chasquid will deliver all accepted mail (both local and remote) to a single specific host (the smarthost server).
Status
It is EXPERIMENTAL for now. The configuration options and behaviour can change in backwards-incompatible ways.
Security
chasquid will always negotiate TLS on the connection to the smarthost, and expects a valid certificate.
If TLS is not available, or the certificate is not valid, the mail will remain in the queue and will not be delivered.
Configuring
Add the following line to /etc/chasquid/chasquid.conf:
smarthost_url: "smtp://user:password@server:587"
Replace user and password with the credentials used to authenticate to the
smarthost server, and server:587 with the server address, including port.
You can also use the tls scheme for direct TLS connections (usually on port
465).
