# Introduction
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Rather than having Postfix deliver mail directly, you can configure Postfix to send mail via another mail relay (smarthost). Examples include [Mailgun](https://www.mailgun.com/), [Sendgrid](https://sendgrid.com/) and [AWS SES](https://aws.amazon.com/ses/).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Depending on the domain of the sender, you may want to send via a different relay, or authenticate in a different way.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# Basic Configuration
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Basic configuration is done via environment variables:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* **RELAY_HOST** _default host to relay mail through, empty will disable this feature_
|
||
|
|
* **RELAY_PORT** _port on default relay, defaults to port 25_
|
||
|
|
* **RELAY_USER** _username for the default relay_
|
||
|
|
* **RELAY_PASSWORD** _password for the default user_
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Setting these environment variables will cause mail for all sender domains to be routed via the specified host, authenticating with the user/password combination.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note for users of the previous AWS_SES_* variables: please update your configuration to use these new variables, no other configuration is required.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# Advanced Configuration
|
||
|
|
## Sender-dependent Authentication
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sender dependent authentication is done in `config/postfix-sasl-password.cf`. You can create this file manually, or use
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
setup.sh relay add-auth <domain> <username> [<password>]
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
An example configuration file looks like this:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
@domain1.com relay_user_1:password_1
|
||
|
|
@domain2.com relay_user_2:password_2
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If there is no other configuration, this will cause Postfix to deliver email throught the relay specified in `RELAY_HOST` env variable, authenticating as `relay_user_1` when sent from domain1.com and authenticating as `relay_user_2` when sending from domain2.com.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Sender-dependent Relay Host
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sender dependent relay hosts are configured in `config/postfix-relaymap.cf`. You can create this file manually, or use
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
setup.sh relay add-domain <domain> <host> [<port>]
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
An example configuration file looks like this:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
@domain1.com [relay1.org]:587
|
||
|
|
@domain2.com [relay2.org]:2525
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Combined with the previous configuration in `config/postfix-sasl-password.cf`, this will cause Postfix to deliver mail sent from domain1.com via `relay1.org:587`, authenticating as `relay_user_1`, and mail sent from domain2.com via `relay2.org:2525` authenticating as `relay_user_2`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Excluding Sender Domains
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you want mail sent from some domains to be delivered directly, you can exclude them from being delivered via the default relay by adding them to `config/postfix-relaymap.cf` with no destination. You can also do this via
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
setup.sh relay exclude-domain <domain>
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Extending the configuration file from above:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
@domain1.com [relay1.org]:587
|
||
|
|
@domain2.com [relay2.org]:2525
|
||
|
|
@domain3.com
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This will cause email sent from domain3.com to be delivered directly.
