Hi,

I wish to switch (or try switching) to Postfix from sendmail (as it comes
with OpenBSD; I'm on 4.6).  What I am trying to find out & having a devil of
a time doing is whether the OpenBSD package of Postfix comes with TLS
support compiled in, or if I will have to compile Postfix from source in
order to get TLS.  I want to do SMTP Auth/STARTTLS. Ideally, I'd like to
just use packages.

Sendmail that comes with OpenBSD stock does TLS but needs to be compiled
from source in order to do SMTP Auth (I'm given to understand). Postfix
seems able to do SMTP Auth in the OpenBSD package version, but I can't get
TLS to work nor can I find whether the package has that capability compiled
in.  The Postfix web site suggest that TLS is not compiled in by default.
Just a hint would make my day (or late night, as the case may be). Apologies
if I've rambled, I've been up for god knows how many hours.

Kind regards,
H.
