mta confusion
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
I have a relatively new box hosting several websites with their own domain
names. It also runs dns and email for the same domains. So far, my
"solution" to the Email Problem (tm) has been to simply not allow each of
them to have "generic" accounts like sales and support. This is becoming
less and less of an option :-) So, here is the list of the "killer features"
of my current setup, and what I need to add. Hopefully someone with more
experience than I can point me in the right direction. Oh, and for reasons
too painful to get into, the owner of the box upgraded to sid without asking
(short conversation: him:look, you can apt-get install webmin if you change
this line in the sources.list! me: yes, but it's called unstable for a
reason. don't do it to this server. him: um, already done, hope that's not a
problem! me: slap him) so running the latest and greatest of various packages
is no problem.
Currently:
Using sendmail with webmin and the webmin control module
Using webmail based off of the webmin control module for sendmail
Each user has a real account on the box for uploading files/whatnot
Normal spam-free setup (non-promisc according to mail-abuse.org)
Forwards for local ip addresses, non-authenticating
Needs:
Be able to differentiate between foo@bar.com and foo@fobb.net
Not have to keep a seperate email database from the system /etc/passwd.
Still have an integrated webmail client that doesn't use imap, just direct
manipulation of the mbox file.
Have a webmin module so the owner can "manage" the mta.
Oh, and having it *not* be sendmail that does all that would be a blessing
:-) As always, any help is appreciated, along with RTFM's (if the proper FM
is pointed out).
HAND!
