mail/postfix-current,
Postfix SMTP server and tools
Branch: pkgsrc-2010Q4,
Version: 2.8.1,
Package name: postfix-2.8.1,
Maintainer: pkgsrc-usersPostfix aims to be an alternative to the widely-used sendmail
program. Sendmail is responsible for 70% of all e-mail delivered
on the Internet. With an estimated 100 million users, that's an
estimated 10 billion (10^10) messages daily. A stunning number.
Although IBM supported the Postfix development, it abstains from
control over its evolution. The goal is to have Postfix installed
on as many systems as possible. To this end, the software is given
away with no strings attached to it, so that it can evolve with
input from and under control by its users.
In other words, IBM releases Postfix only once. I will be around
to guide its development for a limited time.

The existing /etc/rc.d/postfix can be forced to start ${PREFIX}/sbin/postfix
instead of /usr/sbin/postfix, by adding the following lines to
/etc/rc.conf.d/postfix:
postfix_command='${PREFIX}/sbin/postfix'
required_files='${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}/main.cf'
start_cmd='${PREFIX}/sbin/postfix start'
stop_cmd='${PREFIX}/sbin/postfix stop'
reload_cmd='${PREFIX}/sbin/postfix reload'
postconf='${PREFIX}/sbin/postconf'
Please note that /etc/rc.conf.d/postfix does not exist by default so
you need to create that file if you need to override the default settings.
Remember to modify /etc/mailer.conf to use ${PREFIX}/sbin/sendmail instead
of /usr/libexec/postfix/sendmail.

To enable SASL authentication in the SMTP server, you may want to edit
${SASLLIBDIR}/smtpd.conf
and change the method used to check plaintext passwords. To use
security/cyrus-saslauthd, you should change the contents of smtpd.conf
to:
pwcheck_method: saslauthd
You may also want to edit
${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}/main.cf
and set the smtpd_sasl_* variables to appropriate values.
To enable SASL authentication in the SMTP client, you may want to edit
${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}/main.cf
and set the smtp_sasl_* variables to appropriate values.
The corresponding SASL authentication plugins will also need to be
installed. Please consult:
${DOCDIR}/SASL_README
and the SASL documentation for more information on setting up SASL
authentication.

Update "postfix-current" package to version 2.8.1:
Postfix stable release 2.8.0 is available. This release continues the
move towards improving code and documentation, and making the system
better prepared for changes in the threat environment.
The postscreen daemon (a zombie blocker in front of Postfix) is now
included with the stable release. postscreen now supports TLS and can
log the rejected sender, recipient and helo information. See the
POSTSCREEN_README file for recommended usage scenarios.
Support for DNS whitelisting (permit_rhswl_client), and for pattern
matching to filter the responses from DNS white/blacklist servers
(e.g., reject_rhsbl_client zen.spamhaus.org=127.0.0.[1..10]).
Improved message tracking across SMTP-based content filters; the
after-filter SMTP server can log the before-filter queue ID (the
XCLIENT protocol was extended).
Read-only support for sqlite databases. See sqlite_table(5) and
SQLITE_README.
Support for 'footers' that are appended to SMTP server "reject"
responses. See "smtpd_reject_footer" in the postconf(5) manpage.
