[Kolab-devel] prevent smtp senders to fake sender address to an address from internal domains

[Jan Kowalsky]

Hi all,

I try to prevent senders from outside delivering emails via smtp can
fake sender addresses in a way that it looks like the email is
originated from an internal domain.

There are several possibilities in postfix and I would like to hear
about your opinions:

1. via reject_sender_login_mismatch

This didn't work for me out of the box because of:

https://issues.kolab.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3156

after setting

smtpd_sender_login_maps = $virtual_alias_maps

I can set

smtpd_sender_restrictions =
  reject_sender_login_mismatch

and smtp-senders can't send with any internal email address which is known.

But still it's possible to send with non existent email addresses from
internal domains.

2. check_sender_access

In smtp_sender_restrictions you can:

smtpd_sender_restrictions =
    permit_mynetworks,
    permit_sasl_authenticated,
    check_sender_access hash:/etc/postfix/access_table,
    ...,
    permit

where access_table has something like

mydomain.org REJECT You are not my domain

I didn't find out yet how to configure this for working together with
ldap that $mydomains are taken for this check.

How do you handle that?

Thanks in advance
Best Regards
Jan
