Hi Matt,

Can you please describe your setup with regards to two seperate password files? 
I have had second thoughts and will be adding Dovecot into my setup. IMAP is 
very convenient and allows me some flexibility.

Thanks

I feel more comfortable having two separate password files for Dovecot and 
OpenSMTPD. Yes, it's more administrative work but it works fine for my purposes.

The passwd option exists actually, but is provided by opensmtpd-extras.

And that’s what I use since it allows keeping the same file for opensmtpd and 
dovecot.

Bruno

HI,

Base on the feedback I am going to use the ‘file’ option for the credentials 
table in my smtpd.conf;

table passed file:/etc/mail/passwd

Thanks

I simply use the file type. For example:
table credentials file:/etc/mail/credentials.

I do it this way because it is the simplest form. All I have in the credentials 
file is username:password. Use smtpctl encrypt to generate the encrypted 
password for the user. Finally, use smtpctl update table credentials to tell 
smtpd about the changes.

Hi,

When using a credentials table (man table), what table type do I use with 
regards to using the table in a smtpd.conf configuration?

I have created this table in my smtpd.conf but I am not sure it is correct?

table passwd file:/etc/mail/passwd

Though I have seen a sample configuration from another site using a different 
table type;

table passwd passwd:/etc/mail/passwd

Reading the man page, it does not make any reference to the table type using 
‘passwd’. It only talks about ‘file’ and ‘db’.
