postfix 安装

由于MX记录添加后,可能生效要等待一段时间(通常为数分钟或数十分钟,也可能马上生效),所以在安装配置前,我们首先为动态域名添加MX记录。添加方法也会因域名ISP的不同而不同,但大致信息如下:

mx mail.centospub.com. 10
a mail 服务器的IP地址

mail为别名,10为优先度。这个别名指向服务器的IP地址.

确认MX记录的添加是否生效的方法:

[root@sample ~]# host -t mx centospub.com

centospub.com mail is handled by 10 mail.centospub.com. ← 确认MX记录生效

安装Postfix

然后,安装Postfix。

[root@sample ~]# yum -y install postfix ← 在线安装Postfix

配置Postfix及相关组件

[1] 对Postfix进行配置。

[root@sample ~]# vi /etc/postfix/main.cf ← 编辑Postfix的配置文件

#myhostname = host.domain.tld ← 找到此行,将等号后面的部分改写为主机名

myhostname = sample.centospub.com ← 变为此状态,设置系统的主机名

#mydomain = domain.tld ← 找到此行,将等号后面的部分改写为域名

mydomain = centospub.com ← 变为此状态,设置域名(我们将让此处设置将成为E-mail地址“@”后面的部分)

#myorigin = $mydomain ← 找到此行,将行首的#去掉

myorigin = $mydomain ← 变为此状态,将发信地址“@”后面的部分设置为域名(非系统主机名)

inet_interfaces = localhost ← 找到此行,将“localhost”改为“all”

inet_interfaces = all ← 变为此状态,接受来自所有网络的请求

mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost ← 找到此行,在行为添加“$mydomain”

mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, $mydomain ← 变为此状态,指定发给本地邮件的域名

#relay_domains = $mydestination ← 找到此行,将行首的#去掉

relay_domains = $mydestination ← 变为此状态,定义允许转发的域名

#mynetworks = 168.100.189.0/28, 127.0.0.0/8 ← 找到此行,依照自己的内网情况修改

mynetworks = 168.100.189.0/28, 127.0.0.0/8 ← 变为此状态,指定内网和本地的IP地址范围

#home_mailbox = Maildir/ ← 找到这一行,去掉行首的#

home_mailbox = Maildir/ ← 变为此状态,指定用户邮箱目录

# SHOW SOFTWARE VERSION OR NOT
#
# The smtpd_banner parameter specifies the text that follows the 220
# code in the SMTP server’s greeting banner. Some people like to see
# the mail version advertised. By default, Postfix shows no version.
#
# You MUST specify $myhostname at the start of the text. That is an
# RFC requirement. Postfix itself does not care.
#
#smtpd_banner = $myhostname ESMTP $mail_name
#smtpd_banner = $myhostname ESMTP $mail_name ($mail_version) ← 找到这一行,接此行添加如下行:
smtpd_banner = $myhostname ESMTP unknow ← 添加这一行,不显示SMTP服务器的相关信息

在配置文件的文尾,添加如下行:

smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes ← 服务器使用SMTP认证
smtpd_sasl_local_domain = $myhostname ← 指定SMTP认证的本地域名(主机名)
smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous ← 不允许匿名的方式认证
smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, permit_sasl_authenticated, reject_unauth_destination
smtpd_sasl_security_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, permit_sasl_authenticated, reject_unauth_destination←(very important)
message_size_limit = 15728640 ← 规定邮件最大尺寸为15MB

[2] 配置SMTP认证的相关选项

为了提高安全性,我们不将系统用户的密码作为相应用户SMTP认证的密码,而将在后面为用户建立SMTP认证专用的密码。

[root@sample ~]# vi /usr/lib/sasl2/smtpd.conf ← 编辑SMTP认证的配置文件

pwcheck_method: saslauthd ← 找到此行,将“saslauthd”改为“auxprop”

pwcheck_method: auxprop ← 不使用系统用户密码作为用户的SMTP认证密码

[root@sample ~]# vi /etc/sysconfig/saslauthd

MECH=shadow ← 找到这一行,在前面加# 

#MECH=shadow ← 不使用shadow机制

FLAGS= ← 找到此行,在等号后面添加“sasldb”

FLAGS=sasldb ← 定义认证方式为sasldb2

[3] 建立用户的邮箱目录

首先建立用户模板下的邮箱目录,以便于建立新用户时,相应用户的邮箱目录自动被建立。

[root@sample ~]# mkdir /etc/skel/Maildir ← 在用户模板下建立用户邮箱目录

[root@sample ~]# chmod 700 /etc/skel/Maildir ← 设置用户邮箱目录属性为700

然后再为已经存在的用户建立相应邮箱目录。

[root@sample ~]# mkdir /home/centospub/Maildir ← 为用户(这里以centospub用户为例)建立邮箱目录

[root@sample ~]# chmod 700 /home/centospub/Maildir ← 设置该用户邮箱目录属性为700

[root@sample ~]# chown centospub. /home/centospub/Maildir ← 设置该用户邮箱目录为该用户所有

[4] 为用户设置SMTP认证密码

[root@sample ~]# saslpasswd2 -u sample.centospub.com -c centospub ← 为centospub用户设置SMTP认证密码

Password: ← 在这里输入密码(不会显示)
Again (for verification): ← 再次输入密码

[5] 改变SALS的属性及归属

[root@sample ~]# chgrp postfix /etc/sasldb2 ← 将数据库归属改为postfix,

[root@sample ~]# chmod 640 /etc/sasldb2 ← 将数据库属性改为640

[6] 关闭sendmail服务及设置默认MTA

因为在用Postfix作为SMTP服务器的前提下,我们不准备再用sendmail,所以将sendmail服务关掉,以确保安全及节省系统资源。

[root@sample ~]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/sendmail stop ← 关闭sendmail服务

Shutting down sendmail:         [ OK ]
Shutting down sm-client:         [ OK ]

[root@sample ~]# chkconfig sendmail off ← 关闭sendmail自启动

[root@sample ~]# chkconfig –list sendmail ← 确认sendmail自启动已被关闭(都为off就OK)
sendmail 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off

然后再将默认的MTA设置为Postfix。

[root@sample ~]# alternatives –config mta ← 设置默认MTA

There are 2 programs which provide ‘mta’.

Selection Command
———————————————–
*+ 1 /usr/sbin/sendmail.sendmail ← 当前状态:sendmail为默认MTA
2 /usr/sbin/sendmail.postfix

Enter to keep the current selection[+], or type selection number: 2 ← 在这里输入2,使Postfix成为默认MTA

启动相应服务

最后,启动SMTP认证及Postfix服务,并设置相应服务为自启动。

[root@sample ~]# chkconfig saslauthd on ← 将SMTP-Auth设置为自启动

[root@sample ~]# chkconfig –list saslauthd ← 确认SMTP-Auth服务状态
saslauthd 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off ← 确认2~5为on的状态就OK

[root@sample ~]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/saslauthd start ← 启动SMTP-Auth

Starting saslauthd:           [ OK ]

[root@sample ~]# chkconfig postfix on ← 将Postfix设置为自启动

[root@sample ~]# chkconfig –list postfix ← 确认Postfix服务状态
postfix 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off ← 确认2~5为on的状态就OK

[root@sample ~]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/postfix start ← 启动Postfix

Starting postfix:            [ OK ]

POP / IMAP 服务器的构建

POP / IMAP 是 MUA 从邮件服务器中读取邮件时使用的协议。其中,与 POP3 是从邮件服务器中下载邮件比起来,IMAP4 则是将邮件留在服务器端直接对邮件进行管理、操作。这里,我们用 Dovecot 来实现对 POP3 及 IMAP4 等协议支持的邮件接收服务器的搭建。

Dovecot 是一个比较新的软件,由 Timo Sirainen 开发,最初发布于 2002年7月。作者将安全性考虑在第一,所以 Dovecot 在安全性方面比较出众。另外,Dovecot 支持多种认证方式,所以在功能方面也比较符合一般的应用。

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

首先,安装 Dovecot

[root@sample ~]# yum -y install dovecot  ← 在线安装 Dovecot

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

然后,修改相应配置文件,配置 Dovecot

[root@sample ~]# vi /etc/dovecot.conf  ← 编辑Dovecot 的配置文件
#protocols = imap imaps  ← 找到这一行,将协议设置为imap与pop3
protocols = imap pop3  ← 变为此状态
#default_mail_env =  ← 找到这一行,定义邮件目录
default_mail_env = maildir:~/Maildir  ← 定义邮件目录为用户目录下的Maildir目录

 

 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

添加防火墙规则

由于 POP3 协议与 IMAP4 协议要分别用到110号和143号端口,所以在启动服务前,配置防火墙,开通这两个端口。

[root@sample ~]# vi /etc/sysconfig/iptables  ← 编辑防火墙规则

-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 25 -j ACCEPT  ← 找到此行,接着添加如下两行:
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 110 -j ACCEPT  ← 允许POP使用的110号端口
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 143 -j ACCEPT  ← 允许IMAP使用的143号端口

[root@sample ~]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/iptables restart  ← 重新启动防火墙,使新的设置生效

Flushing firewall rules:          [ OK ]
Setting chains to policy ACCEPT: filter   [ OK ]
Unloading iptables modules:       [ OK ]
Applying iptables firewall rules:      [ OK ]

 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

最后,启动 Dovecot ,并将其设置为自启动。 
[root@sample ~]# chkconfig dovecot on  ← 设置Dovecot为自启动

[root@sample ~]# chkconfig --list dovecot
dovecot 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off  ← 确认2~5为on的状态就OK

[root@sample ~]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/dovecot start  ← 启动Dovecot服务

Starting Dovecot Imap:        [ OK ]
