G'day,
I've been running sendmail for years with cyrus and realtime address
checking to (supposedly!) stop backscatter, but it seems to be broken,
so it's probably a good time to migrate to postfix (been putting off for
years ...)
This document isn't very helpful :
http://www.postfix.org/CYRUS_README.html
Can anyone here point me at a good howto/setup guide to integrate
postfix with cyrus imapd, virtual domains and realtime checking of
addresses to prevent backscatter? My google-fu is not returning much
that I can find.
I've tried this in main.cf :
mailbox_transport = lmtp:unix:/var/imap/socket/lmtp
Which I thought would mean that email to non-existent accounts would be
instantly rejected, but tests show this :
bash-4.3$ telnet localhost 25
Trying ::1...
telnet: connect to address ::1: Connection refused
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
