I have read the information previous supplied and found some useful tidbits/information.

This is to better explain what I am trying to accomplish

server alarm.home.org   <-- fetchmail        <-- [email protected]
Dovecot/SMTP                            <-- [email protected]
                                        <-- [email protected]
                                        <-- [email protected]
                        The fetchmail delivers all emails to
                        [email protected] (dovecot on alarm.home.arpa)
                                          (smtp on alarm.home.arpa)
        ^
        |
        |
Thunderbird then reads the account [email protected] (IMAP)

Reply to [email protected] --> www.twc.com smarthost
Reply to [email protected] --> www.twc.com smarthost
New message to  [email protected] from [email protected]

So SMTP needs to        rewrite [email protected] to [email protected]
                        use [email protected] credentials to www.twc.com
                        rewrite [email protected] to [email protected]
                        use [email protected] credentials to www.twc.com
                        rewrite [email protected] to [email protected]
                        use [email protected] credentials to www.twc.com


Dovecot to use PAM to validate user oldfart, Maildir on /srv/Mail/<user>
SMTP to use dovecot credentials

STARTTLS/TLS connection required to www.twc.com
No TLS/SSL required on the local network, but if it is required to do so then so be it.


Procedure:

        Step 1. create certs

        Step 2. install/configure dovecot

        Step 3. install/configure a SMTP daemon


I hope this makes this more clear of what I am trying to accomplish.

All help welcomne

Thanks for your help
