It took a long time to setup using postfix with rogers/yahoo but finally I got it working here are some steps for future reference: After following the intrsuctions found elsewhere for getting postfix onto your system via yum do the following (this all finally worked but maybe some of my experimenting steps were not that neccessary): 1. edit /etc/postfix/master.cf Add the line starting with 587 under the smtp line smtp inet n - n - - smtpd
587 inet n - n - - smtpd 2. edit /etc/postfix/main.cf add the following relayhost = [smtp.broadband.rogers.com] smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes smtp_sasl_password_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/saslpw smtp_sasl_security_options = noanonymous I also set myhostname = myhost.dyndns.org and mydomain = dyndns.org 3. Edit and create the file /etc/postfix/saslpw and place the following line in it [smtp.broadband.rogers.com] yourrogersusername <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:yourrogerspassword> @rogers.com:yourrogerspassword ________________________________ From: Alex Robar [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, December 08, 2006 9:30 PM To: Tony Davis; [email protected] Subject: RE: [on-asterisk] Sending voicemail notifications thru rogers Hi Tony, I currently use IGS DSL for connectivity, and they enforce the same "our SMTP or none at all" policy as Rogers does. I removed sendmail and installed postfix (yum remove sendmail / yum install postfix... I think). Postfix is pretty easy to setup with auth for your ISPs SMTP. There's a good guide to use Postfix as an SMTP client here: http://wiki.redwall-firewall.com/index.php/Implementing_Upstream_SMTP_Au thentication_for_Postfix Alex ___________________________________________ Alex Robar, Technical Support, GearyTech Inc. 3075 Fourteenth Avenue, Unit 3, Markham, Ontario L3R 0G9 Markham: 905-513-8000 x 223 Fax: 905-513-8040 [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.gearytech.com -----Original Message----- From: Tony Davis [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Fri 12/8/2006 7:37 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [on-asterisk] Sending voicemail notifications thru rogers I am using trixbox and need to send my vmail notifications thru email. I was on primus dsl and everything worked fine. I think that rogers requires you to use their smtp server and it requires authentication. Any ideas?
