Hi all,
I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction here. I
cannot for the life of me get smptd to start. It always fails when
running # rcctl restart smtpd, or when stopping and starting separately.
I've been looking to move to OpenSMTP for my mail needs, so I can get
my family and I's mail out of the cloud (yuck). The end goal is to set
up a basic IMAP mail server enabling my family to easily connect from
their various devices. I've been attempting to follow this guide on the
OpenSMTP website: https://www.opensmtpd.org/faq/example1.html
I have of course RTFM, and I have also tried guides such as this, to no
avail:
https://frozen-geek.net/openbsd-email-server-1/
http://technoquarter.blogspot.ca/
<https://frozen-geek.net/openbsd-email-server-1/>
I feel as if I'm missing something obvious here.
My config/steps taken are listed below. I have tried this on both i386
bare metal and on amd64 VM using vmm. Please let me know if a dmesg
would be helpful. The logs show nothing as to why its failing. Any help
would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Jordan Geoghegan
*My smtpd.conf is as follows (scrubbed of personal info):*
# pki setup
pki mail.mydomain.ca certificate "/etc/ssl/mail.mydomain.ca.crt"
pki mail.mydomain.ca key "/etc/ssl/private/mail.mydomain.ca.key"
# tables setup
table aliases file:/etc/mail/aliases
table domains file:/etc/mail/domains
table passwd passwd:/etc/mail/passwd
table virtuals file:/etc/mail/virtuals
# listen ports setup
listen on lo0
listen on egress port 25 tls pki mail.mydomain.ca
listen on egress port 587 tls-require pki mail.mydomain.ca auth <passwd>
# allow local messages
accept from local for local alias <aliases> deliver to lmtp "/var/dovecot/lmtp"
rcpt-to
# allow virtual domains
accept from any for domain <domains> virtual <virtuals> deliver to lmtp
"/var/dovecot/lmtp" rcpt-to
# allow outgoing mails
accept from local for any relay
*SSL keys and self signed certs were generated as per man smtpd.conf(5):*
# openssl genrsa -out /etc/ssl/private/mail.mydomain.ca key 4096
# openssl req -new -x509 -key /etc/ssl/private/mail.mydomain.ca.key \
-out /etc/ssl/mail.mydomain.ca.crt -days 365
# chmod 600 /etc/ssl/mail.mydomain.ca.crt
# chmod 600 /etc/ssl/private/mail.mydomain.ca.key
*I then fill out my /etc/mail/aliases*
vmail: /dev/null
root: jordan
jordan: jor...@mydomain.ca
*and fill /etc/mail/domains with my domain info*
mydomain.ca
mydomain.com
myotherdomain.ca
myotherdomain.com
(there's no change if just one or multiple domains listed)
*And the /etc/mail/passwd info is generated using $ smtpctl encrypt ****(am I supposed to be using my actual system login password here? I did
just to be sure)***
jor...@mydomain.ca:$2b$...encrypted...password...::::::
*My /etc/mail/virtuals looks like: *
ab...@mydomain.ca jor...@mydomain.ca
postmas...@mydomain.ca jor...@mydomain.ca
webmas...@mydomain.ca jor...@mydomain.ca
jor...@mydomain.ca vmail
*Dovecot starts without complaint with this config:*
passdb {
args = scheme=blf-crypt /etc/mail/passwd
driver = passwd-file
}
userdb {
args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/var/vmail/%d/%n
driver = static
}
service imap-login {
inet_listener imap {
address = *
port = 143
}
inet_listener imaps {
address = *
port = 993
}
}
