    hey friends,

     I want to configure postfix.I have 2 catch all mailboxes with 2 different
    ISPs.I want to configure postfix in such a way that it should be able
    to handle mails for
    both the domains like nextegen.com and sunupdelhi.net.Now the problem is that
    both the accounts require authentication with the ISP's mail server.

    I have configure postfix with smtp_sasl_auth_enable and other
    configurations are also done for one account.But I am not too sure how
    to handle the second account.

    Suppose there is a user john having mail account on the local mail
    server.Whenever he
    sends the mails to the outside world the local mailserver should
    contact or authenticate to the ISP's mail server to send the mail
    doing so prevents the mail accounts going into the spam list. Now the
    problem is that how to handle the 2 accounts as both requires
    authentication.

    I have given relay entry for one account like relay: xxx.xxxx.xxxx
    with one file created on the Linux where the user name and password
    are stored for this mail account.Whenever any mail from the Local Mail
    server goes to the outside world it first contacts the ISP's mail
    server and then forward it to the real user account/mailbox.I am using
    virtual domain for sunupdelhi.net as my local domain is different from
    this domain.

    I have few more queries I don't know the use of sasldb/sasldb2.I have
    installed cyrus-sasl on my Linux pc and using sasldb2 for the
    users.Even though some users are not part of that database but still
    they are able to send mails to the outside world and within the
    Lan.Can anybody tell me whether smtp_sasl_auth_enable should work
    without entring the users in the sasldb2 database. The entry for
    /usr/lib/sasl2/smtpd.conf is pw_check:auxprop and mech_list:plain
    login.

    Second if I want to restrict a machine(any server) from which any user
    cannot send any mail whether within the Lan or outside Lan and also
    whether it is possible to restrict any particular user from sending
    the mail from any machine.

    I have configure squirrelmail for Imap.The code for squirremail in
    httpd.conf is like this

    Directory "/usr/share/squirrelmail">
       Options Indexes MultiViews
       AllowOverride None
       Order allow,deny
       Allow from all
    </Directory>

    I can access the squirrelmail from Lan and from outside also.But I
    want is that if somebody type
    http://192.168.0.90/webmail for accessing squirrelmail ,the apache
    should itself redirect the http: to https means the url should become
    https://192.168.0.90/webmail

    Is it possible for squirrelmail.

    I am using dovecot as pop server.

    Today I am at home so i don't have the postfix configuration
    file(main.conf),but if somebody needs that I can mail it tomorrow.

    Thanks in Advance

    Thanks & Regards

    Ankush
