exim mailserver
I want to setup a mailserver, like the servers an ISP has. I have exim
installed and it delivers and recieves mail just fine. I have a static
IP and a domain. I also have uw-imapd-ssl running , which is really
neat. I can read email over ssl links from anywhere on the net with
mozilla-mail, outlook express, etc.
But this is only half of the deal. I can't send email from my email
clients because exim rejects the mail, saying it won't relay email. So
what I want is to have exim ask for a login password, and if possible do
this over an ssl connection too.
At first I tried using PAM, but nothing I did effected exim, then I
noticed in my exim.conf I found some lines about setting up
authentication but I can't quite get it working. Are there any guides on
this? I really want to set this up using SSL since most of the email
logins will also be shell logins, so sending those logins unencrypted
seems like a bad idea.
Is there anykind of a guide I can read? I tried searching google, but I
get lots of stuff not related to what I want to do, and the NAG has some
info, but not on having smpt password login.
Any clues would be helpful, I've been playing with this for a couple of
weeks now, but I haven't made a lot of progress. Thanks!
