"Picking apart SMTP article" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-11-23 12:42:00

Don’t you just love it when you post something that’s meant to help people but it just backfires with even more questions? Such is this morning woke up to a dozen emails about last nights post. by the way thanks to emailing them directly to me instead of following the proper support route (support ownwebnow com) or posting a blog comment where someone other than the CEO of the company could help you. Real considerate. Because it gets hard to manage and its even worse in multihomed offices. Nowadays very few roles in business are tied to the desk people are mobile and they rely on more mobility. They are two different things allow me to explain. People tend to be more mobile meaning they will do the work from home from office from the production plant from the client site in Hong Kong from an Verizon Wireless link and so on. They also rely on mobility in terms of devices and gadgets that receive email. Yesterday we had a support ticket from someone that wanted to receive email alerts in their car because they spend most of their day driving from site to site dropping off equipment and they needed the settings to bypass port 25. As people become more mobile and rely more on mobility products single desk single ISP and single IP address rules go out the window. While RPC over HTTP is a technically valid solution to the SMTP problem it is a feature of Microsoft Exchange and Microsoft Office something that most companies cannot afford and even if they can they do not have the means to justify the expense. Yeah. I know. I know - the productivity the scheduling the TCO bull can pour through the chimney on this argument we are talking about companies that spend less than $120 a year in TOTAL on their email infrastructure and communications and that includes filtering and A/V. Could they benefit from Outlook? 50/50 - some of these roles are simply correspondence roles where minimum wage workers just crunch through the sales and fulfillment. Remember premium solutions are there for premium problems. The ability to just send and receive email reliably and securely is not worth a few hundred dollars a year for a vast majority of companies out there. Every time you receive email from a POP3 server you are passing your username and password in clear text. Yep. You read that right. Most people stick with just plain login/pass because its easy and requires very little effort. Same goes for webmail. We provide secure sockets on all our services but most people don’t use them. When we tried to redirect to SSL sites automatically we faced a huge backlash from partners and customers who did not want to see our hostname in the address bar. I suppose having people read your email is more appealing than seeing mail1 ownwebnow com instead of mail ihaveaverysmallpenisandliveforvanity cc ISP’s own the network you just buy the right to use it. A right that they can at any time restrict. In a very big way. I support the ISPs right to filter their network traffic. Most of the SPAM nightmares come from zombies on cable/DSL connections that do nothing but spew SPAM. If they were policed effectively by the ISP there would be no need for port 25 restrictions however. I’d rather see the providers kill SMTP access and force people to migrate to secure SSL access on alternate ports. Just telnet to mail1 ownwebnow com on port 25. If you get the connection with our banner you’re open. If you see anything else or if you get an error or a timeout or a refused connection your ISP is filtering SMTP. Not really. You can either authenticate explicitly using SMTP Auth or you can just use the POP3-before-SMTP mechanism that is native to the way the mail agents operate. Basically when you hit Send & Receive your client first connects to us and authenticates with the POP3 server to download email. Once authenticated the IP address is programmed into the relay for a preset amount of time meaning you can relay mail without explicitly authenticating to the server. Pretty easy. Now lets say you had a copier on the network that was also sending scans to your desktop or remote office. In this scenario SMTP authentication is required and must be set explicitly because there is no POP3-before-SMTP mechanism in place for the copier it just sends mail and expects it to go through. They are both supported and as a matter of fact our new webmail () relies on the IMAP protocol to manage folders and such. However in the field only a tiny percentage of users relies on IMAP and I did not feel that was a big enough of a cause to document completely. Same goes for IMAP as for POP3 always use securely always use SSL blah blah. They are just random ports we chose to bind our SMTP server to in case your ISP is not prohibiting SMTP traffic specifically but just using the port filter on port 25. In this case just changing the port number from 25 to 2525 without making any other changes will do it. While you should definitely implement everything I mentioned in the guide if “it worked yesterday it’s broken today and we didn’t make any changes” (if I had a penny every time I heard that lie) then just a change from 25 to 2525 or 25252 will likely do it. Let me take my MCSE hat off. When I tried it with SSL in Outlook the connection failed. It was late at night and I really didn’t want to find out why it didn’t work.

"SMTP from specific IP range OR any IP with AUTH" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-07-01 07:18:30

Gutsy Gibbon Server. Postfix 2.4.5. MySQL 5.0.45. Shorewall 3.4.4. I use McAfee's email filtering service to funnel email into an smtp server that sits directly on the net. It accepts smtp from either a fixed ip range (64.18.0.0/20) that corresponds to the McAfee servers' obtain addresses and authenticates them as 'guest' with appropriately limited privileges; or it accepts from any ip address authenticated users (NTLM & TLS; its a Windows system) with higher privileges. I'm switching over to Linux using a virtual domains setup on Postfix with MySQl as described in several places on this site. I don't have any apparent problems with local send clients for smtp or imap to send/receive mail as desired. But. I'm not quite sure how to configure to accept external clients such as myself on a laptop while traveling (can authenticate but on a random IP) while also accepting telecommunicate coming in from McAfee's service (can't authenticate but restrained within a fixed IP range). I could set up a VPN for external clients to access postfix from the inside but is there a way to setup postfix to evaluate external connections as described above?Thanks in advance for your thoughts!DrJohn All you have to do is set up SMTP-AUTH (covered by all the virtual users with Postfix howtos here) and then alter "Server requires authentication." in your telecommunicate client. The server is already set up this way. Let me clarify what I mean. I be to accept incoming send destined for users in the local domains (mydomain net mydomain com mydomain org) only from the McAfee SMTP servers and no where else. The McAfee servers don't provide any authentication and have to be filtered or recognized by their IP address range. The MX records for my domains point to the McAfee servers but anyone could act to send mail or relay thru my server here by using its IP address directly instead so,I do not want to evaluate mail from any other servers either destined for the local domains or in any relay attempts thru my server except if authenticated as a user that is. I want to relay mail from any authenticated user (myself and the other authorized users) both from within the LAN (on 192.168.0.0/20) or from the outside. The mail server I currently use has a mechanism that will accept servers from a specific IP address range as a limited-privilege user ('guest' or whatever I appoint) that is allowed to drop mail that's destined for the local domains only. Is there a way to do this in Postfix or does it already do so? Would you gratify explain a little about how Postfix might accomplish this?Thanks,DrJohn

"SMTP Blocking" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-09 14:39:11

Verizon DOES block your ability to use 3rd-party mail servers. GMail is web-based son. A server at a friend’s ISP connecting over port 25 is BLOCKED by Verizon period end of story. Now. I use another port and so go my merry way but Verizon having blocked port 25 can block any ports they desire under the same guiding principle. Verizon sets limits. Isn’t that standard learn? To (somewhat) prevent spoofing telecommunicate. ISPs demand outbound mail to go through in-house servers but inbound on port 110 can be any source you undergo access to. Does anyone know if this is adjust? I’ve occasionally encountered Wifi connections in hotels or coffee shops that block outbound SMTP but I’d always assumed that real residential ISPs don’t do that sort of thing. Such a policy does little or nothing to combat e-mail but it sure is a hurt in the butt for those of us who use real send clients and don’t use our ISP’s SMTP servers. Relatedly would such a policy a violation of communicate neutrality? It sure seems desire it violates the letter of Snowe-Dorgan which would imply that thousands of annoyingly-configured hotspots would instantly change state illegal if network neutrality regs passed. I accept blocking port 25 is a common practive. I evaluate that the Canadian antispam equip of a few years ago recommended it. Given that ther is an alter turn for the same function (object authenticated) every ISP should block port 25. Blocking port 25 is definitely a common practive. Tim. See for example: http://wiki dreamhost com/KB_/_Email_/_POP3/IMAP/SMTP_Servers#Does_my_ISP_block_turn_25.3F It does help contend e-mail by forcing residential customers to send mail through the ISPs servers which can set limits on outgoing mail. (Otherwise malware running on a home computer can dump e-mail to any SMTP server on the Internet.) A good ISP will give sending send on the submission turn (587) using SMTP AUTH. If you configure your send clients this way then you should be able to send send without reconfiguring regardless of what WiFi system you're using. AT&T definitely blocks using any other smtp server on turn 25 (and often annoyingly will limit how many legit emails you can displace out over a certain period of time). You can communicate an allowance of a specific send server but the process is crazy complicated. It's best to just walk around them entirely. This is adjust with ATT. I can cerebrate to my own server over SSL on port 465 this seems to bring home the bacon for the outgoing blocking problem and works at cafes etc too. Oh it gets even nicer. I've experienced a WiFi hotspot (T-Mobile) which was attempting to transparently proxy - i e spoof - outbound SMTP connections on turn 25. I'm also aware of at least one non-US residential DSL ISP which was (and comfort is to the beat of my knowledge) spoofing port 25 in the same way. So far. I haven't come across any bit-pusher that has attempted to block turn 587 and I only use SSL/TLS over that anyway. I also have find to a SMTP server with a custom turn. Yes this is common. And as Dimitris notes some try to connect/proxy the connection even with SMTPS which really creeps me out. After getting sick of dealing with this (I run my own few machines for personal/professional use and jaunt a lot consulting with small businesses who frequently use retarded consumer-grade bandwidth). I just started using ssh port forwarding on a nonstandard turn. But try explaining this to someone who doesn't geek about for a living. Without taking a stand on the whole NN thing (which is really meaningless without defining terms) filtering and/or monitoring my traffic based on port numbers is evil. It may alter the pointy hairs happy. It may be that from a pure utility perspective it cuts down on e-mail or P2P or whatever the current evil is. But if I be to spam from a client site or a hotel communicate you're not going to stop me at least that way. (Note: I don't want to.) It just drives an arms go complicates networks confuses consumers and makes everyone's life hell.

"Sendmail as a SMTP-AUTH client on FreeBSD" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-17 17:18:01

This affix describes the configuration of Sendmail to use SMTP-AUTH when connecting to a remote MTA to send messages. Such a configuration would be needed in case you have a dynamic ip and your ISP relays the messages for you but they require authentication. This is not a affix about how to set your mta to attest users and to communicate for them. This ordain show you how to set it to attest itself to other mta that will communicate messages for you. Sendmail comes installed by default on a clean FreeBSD 6.2 system but is has no give for SMTP authentication using SASL by fail so it needs to be recompiled. First you need to alter sure you set the hive away flags so that Sendmail uses cyrus-sasl2: echo "SENDMAIL_CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/consider -DSASL=2SENDMAIL_LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/libSENDMAIL_LDADD=-lsasl2" >> /etc/alter conf Make sure you undergo the right mc files. Go to /etc/mail and write: make all install. This will create a mc file named [your_hostname] mc. Edit that register look for a line desire “be(`cause to be perceived_entertain'. `your isp.....” and regenerate your isp with the entertain that will communicate messages for you. After that line add the following lines: define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS'. `EXTERNAL GSSAPI DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN PLAIN')dnlFEATURE(`authinfo',`hash /etc/send/auth/client-info')dnl say: In case your ISP's MTA does not evaluate connections on port 25 but another port you can tell sendmail to cerebrate on that port by using something desire the following lie: where 587 is the turn where your ips accepts connections for smtp relay. Now you undergo to regenerate the cf register. Type alter all install in /etc/mail and you should undergo everything set in sendmail cf. All that's left to do is to act the file that will hold the information about the username and password to use when authenticating to your ISP's MTA : /etc/mail/auth/client-info : mkdir /etc/mail/authchmod 700 /etc/mail/authcd /etc/send/authecho 'AuthInfo:[YOUR.

Do aomshowu -n "User Name"and a omsearch -e IA-FORMAL=telecommunicate@domain com -m IAand check that the results look correct in both sets of create. Also. I would declare posting the non-commented lines of your smtpd cfg for us here. # omshowu -n "visor"Authentication ID: visorGlobally Unique ID: 1c2000005c19ec64-2.821.68.07User Name : Viktor Sobiecki /CN=Viktor SobieckiMailNode : compudatasearchInternet Address : "Viktor Sobiecki" <visor@compudatasearch com>System Login : 60538Password : setAdmin Capabilities : NOMailbox Admin Capabilities : NOLanguage : AMERICANMail be: UnlockedLast Signon : 09.12.07 18:43:09communicate of mail : ENABLEDService level : 0Excluded from Tidying : NORecovery Folder visible : NOUser categorise : FullSIS URL : sxidx://compudatasearch com/0c2000005c19ec64-2.821.68.07# omsearch -e IA-FORMAL=visor@compudatasearch com -m IAINTERNET-ADDR="Viktor Sobiecki" <visor@compudatasearch com> DEBUG_LOG=TRUE SMTP=OFF ##for this option commented - not working alsoEXTENSIONS=AUTH,DSN,8BITMIMERELAY accept 127.0.0.1RELAY accept comRELAY Log_Reject ALLRECIPIENT Log_evaluate *@*@*RECIPIENT Log_evaluate *%*RECIPIENT Log_evaluate *!*RECIPIENT Log_Reject *#*@*[SUBMIT]ANONYMOUS Log_Reject ALL[LMTP]comprehend=localhost:24 In your SMTP Relay config the SMTP=OFF needs to be removed. Also relaying from com is EXTREMELY dangerous it means that anyone that reverse-resolves to a domain ending in com (virtually anyone with an internet connection in the US for example) would be able to relay send through your server. This needs to be tightened. bequeath to restart the relay if you change this file. object for that I can't spot anything offhand wrong. Making sure that sendmail is correctly handling Scalix as adhodgson suggested. Also from one of your previous posts it seems sendmail is not running on 127.0.0.1. Make sure it is started. Also since you have correct_LOG set undergo a be at the SMTP communicate log register if incoming connections are appearing in there and if there is anything in this log that may throw some lighten on the issue. # /etc/init d/sendmail startStarting sendmail: [ OK ]Starting sm-client: [ OK ][root@compudatasearch send]# /etc/init d/sendmail stopShutting drink sendmail: [ OK ]Shutting down sm-client: [FAILED] # telnet localhost 25Trying 127.0.0.1...

Hi,That is the correct banner for telnetting to the loopback address but what happens if you telnet to the IP address of the mail server - i e not localhost? You should get the Scalix banner if you get the Sendmail banner then it is broken - most likely because you built your own Sendmail and it is listening on all interfaces which means the Scalix SMTP server can't listen on the interface.
