I'm no aged guru either, but I've been administering postfix for about 5 years. I think your best bet is to use SASL authentication and add permit_sasl_authenticated to your restrictions: smtpd_client_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, permit_sasl_authenticated, reject_rbl_client zen.spamhaus.org=127.0.0.10, reject_rbl_client zen.spamhaus.org=127.0.0.11, reject_rbl_client zen.spamhaus.org Then you have to setup some form of SASL, see: http://www.postfix.org/SASL_README.html I struggled to get SASL working at first. I use cyrus IMAP and the authdaemon that comes with that package for IMAP authentication. Now SASL supports using this same authdaemon for SMTP authentication. The config here: == /usr/local/lib/sasl2/smtpd.conf pwcheck_method: authdaemond log_level: 3 mech_list: PLAIN LOGIN authdaemond_path:/var/run/authdaemond/socket The authentication sets you up for mobile sending. Hope this helps... johnea
