I'm just setting up a new Postix server with TLS on Centos 6, I've
generated self certified certificate, that all seems OK as follows:

smtpd_tls_key_file = /etc/pki/tls/certs/server.key

but I'm 'missing' the CAfile part

looking at where my key/certificates are in /etc/pki/tls/certs/ I have

so, is 'ca-bundle.trust.crt' what I put in

smtpd_tls_CAfile = /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.trust.crt

or the ca-bundle.crt ??


No, you need to have your cert signed by a CA (certificate Authority) and it is the CA cert that signed your cert that you put there.

You can actually create your own CA cert and then sign your own certificates for this purpose. For example, see here:
