My Covad/Speakeasy went down Monday and isn't back yet, so I've moved my server to a colo, but I'm a little stuck getting some parts working. Basically, since it was on a LAN DMZ before, I need to lock it down a bit. Port 25 was always wide open to the world, so I have Postfix locked down pretty well for relaying & spam. Which is the problem. Now my clients can't use that server to send outgoing (which I want to do). I have worked around the problem for now (since you are reading this) by adding my FiOS IPA to my Postfix 'mynetworks' in /etc/postfix/main.cf, but that's not an ideal solution for various reasons. Also, I got IMAP/SSL working on 993, but have nothing for SMTP yet. What I *think* I want to do is leave 25/TCP alone (for incoming mail from Internet servers) and run SMTP/SSL on 465/TCP, and authenticate users on that port via PAM for outgoing mail. Can anyone a) suggest something better or b) provide Postfix config clues? BTW I have enough points in CACert to get my SSL certs from there, which I did for the IMAP/SSL and can do for the SMTP/SSL as well.
