Hi everybody,

 

I'm actually configuring our new mail server Exchange 2007. It's a migration
from Postfix/Cyrus to Exchange 2007.

We plan to migrate some users at a time and we need to keep Postfix as a
relay for the users who are migrated so postfix is used as a relay for the
migrated users

and as the main server for the others.

Emails will follow those directions :

From internet ---> Barracuda anti spam Appliance ---> Postfix. The server
will understand if it's necessary to relay the email to the Exchange server
.

migrated users ---> Exchange 2007 ---> Internet

users ---> Postfix  ---> Internet

users ---> Postfix ---> Exchange 2007 ---> migrated users

migrated users ---> Exchnage 2007 --> Postfix --> users

 

I made some modifications in the Postfix configuration.

 

/etc/postfix/main.cf :

 

#mydestination = localhost, localhost.test.com, test.com,
localhost.testing.com, testing.com

mydestination = localhost, localhost.test.com, localhost.testing.com

#relay_domains = fr.design.test.com

relay_domains = fr.design.test.com, test.com, testing.com

 

/etc/postfix/transport :

 

# MAILBOX MIGRATED

te...@test.com   smtp:srvexch.test.com

te...@test.com    smtp:srvexch.test.com

 

#MUST BE THE LAST LINE

test.com           local

testing.com     local

 

On the Exchange 2007 side, I created a receive connector with a specific IP
defined to receive mail from (the Postfix server), a send connector to send
emails

to the Postfix users (address spaces *.test.com, *.testing.com & use of the
MX record to find the Postfix server) and a send connector to send emails
outside of the organization directly to internet (address space *).

 

But I encounter the problem of authentication. It seems that I need to
authenticate Postfix to Exchange 2007 for the migrated users to receive an
email and 

I don't know what to do to make it run smoothly.

 

/etc/postfix # cat /var/log/mail | grep test1

Apr 21 12:02:34 everest postfix/smtp[27036]: C33675832B:
to=<te...@test.com>, relay= srvexch.test.com [192.168.145.99], delay=48,
status=bounced (host srvexch.test.com [192.168.145.99] said: 530 5.7.1
Client was not authenticated (in reply to MAIL FROM command))

 

I guess I need to specify in Exchange 2007 the security mechanisms to use
in the receive connector and I want to use TLS. 

First of all, do you think it's enough as I don't want that a sniffer can
read emails ?

And what should I configure in Postfix to use TLS and allow Postfix to
discuss with Exchange ?

 

I hope I was enough clear on what I'm trying to do. 

Thank you for your help.
