Hello:

Is it complete out of question to think of a per user mailer
configuration in imp?
I could think of two things you might mean with that question. And in
both cases the answer is: no, it is of course possible to think about it
and realize it.
I´m sorry I was not specific. The scneraio I´m thinking is a very small organization (5 users) using Horde. This organization uses google apps for email. Google apps does not allow you to setup a single SMTP server account for all the users or, better saying, it allows you to do so, but then every email sent through the SMTP will have as sender the account you used to login to the gmail SMTP, regardless of the user that has actually sent the email.

So, in order to actually use the recommended approach (STMP instead of sendmail), I have to do a workaround: I set sendmail in Horde Configuration (mailer) and then configure a postfix server with "per sender relay", and then I have to configure in postfix a file with all users credentials necessary to access and send mail via gmail SMTP. This way, Horde uses postfix, but postfix actually uses the SMTP server as a relay server and mail is sent with no trouble at all.

But it is a really dirty solution, since I have to put in this postfix file (sasl_passwd) all the emails and respective passwords necessary to access the gmail SMTP.

So I was thinking if it would be acceptable to suggest the implementation of a "per user mailer" in imp, so each user gets to set his own SMTP server and then it will be his problem whether or not he has changed his password etc. He could always update his credentials without contacting the admin.

Cheers,

Gunnar
Thanks a lot!
