[Kolab-devel] [issue2715] SMTP SASL Authentication on Server Settings web page

[trilby]

New submission from trilby <trilby at placefarm.com>:

Could the SMTP SASL Authentication described in the wiki be more elegantly
incorporated into the Server Settings web page as a check box below SMTP
"smarthost/relayhost"?
https://wiki.kolab.org/index.php/Kolab2_Maintenance_and_Use#SMTP_SASL_Authentication

You'd need to edit /etc/kolab/main.cf.template as below to add a new option
"postfix-relayauth" based on the new check box.

@@@if postfix-relayhost@@@

# Postfix Relay Host
#
# Check if there is also a relayport otherwise put the default
@@@if postfix-relayport@@@
relayhost = [@@@postfix-relayhost@@@]:@@@postfix-relayport@@@
@@@else@@@
relayhost = [@@@postfix-relayhost@@@]
@@@endif@@@
@@@if postfix-relayauth@@@
# use sasl authentication for outgoing mail to relayhost
smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtp_sasl_password_maps = hash:/kolab/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd
smtp_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
@@@endif@@@
@@@endif@@@

I guess you'd also need to work out a way to edit /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd and
recreate /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd.db with postmap or at least put some warning
on the Server Settings web page that it is necessary.
