Re: Best distro for Exim/Cyrus

Thanks for that Vladislav, it was very helpful.  :-)

I have managed to get exim to use the defined cyrus_delivery transport attempting to deliver a received mail but it is baulking on the SSL cert. 

From /var/log/mail.err :
Feb 12 14:58:46 blmail cyrus/lmtp[3523]: unable to get private key from '/etc/ssl/private/ssl-cert-snakeoil.key'
Feb 12 14:58:46 blmail cyrus/lmtp[3523]: TLS server engine: cannot load cert/key data, may be a cert/key mismatch?
Feb 12 14:58:46 blmail cyrus/lmtp[3523]: [lmtpd] error initializing TLS

I have run 
root@blmail:~# bash /usr/share/doc/exim4-base/examples/exim-gencert --force
and confirm the permissions on the cert file:
root@blmail:~# ls -l /etc/ssl/private/
total 4
-rw-r----- 1 root root 916 Feb 12 12:41 ssl-cert-snakeoil.key
What process/user should have access to this key?  Is it simply the wrong owner/group? 

I can access cyrus and 'see' mailboxes, create them etc:
root@blmail:~# cyradm --user cyrus --auth login localhost
IMAP Password:
localhost> lm
user.hire (\HasChildren)           user.hire.Trash (\HasNoChildren)
user.hire.Drafts (\HasNoChildren)  user.hire.test (\HasNoChildren)
user.hire.Sent (\HasNoChildren)    user.paul (\HasNoChildren)
but I believe this is using saslauth LOGIN so maybe it's not using the SSL anyway?

When I attempt to send mail to an account on there I get the following in /var/log/exim4/mainlog :
2014-02-12 14:58:46 1WDilR-0000ul-Rh DKIM: d=gmail.com s=20120113 c=relaxed/relaxed a=rsa-sha256 [verification succeeded]

I'll come back to the Spamassassin issue later (unless of course it's related!)

So I seem to be getting confused about when the SSL is used.  Ideally I'd like to use SSL and authentication for SMTP and IMAP.  Is it that the LMTP needs authentication and it's not?  I did use in /etc/cyrus.conf
lmtp            cmd="lmtpd" -a listen="localhost:lmtp" prefork=0 maxchild=20
I feel like I'm close, but still not fully understanding the relationship between exim and cyrus  regards lmtp and saslauth.  Have I mixed things up here?

Hoping for more of the excellent help I've received thus far.

Here are the most important snippets of my Debian/exim/cyrus config for sasldb authentication, exim split config. Based on squeeze, so be careful there might be small changes in wheezy. Changes noted as a diff file.

 

/etc/exim4/conf.d/main/00_exim4-config_localmacros: (new file)

 

+ LOCAL_DELIVERY = cyrus_delivery

 

/etc/exim4/conf.d/acl/30_exim4-config_check_rcpt:

 

# Insist that any other recipient address that we accept is either in one of

# our local domains, or is in a domain for which we explicitly allow

# relaying. Any other domain is rejected as being unacceptable for relaying.

require

message = relay not permitted

domains = +local_domains : +relay_to_domains

# We also require all accepted addresses to be verifiable. This check will

# do local part verification for both local and remote domains.

# Callout is needed to do the check via LMTP.

# This is important to avoid backscatter bounces.

# If you act as backup MX, you might need to adjust.

require

- verify = recipient

+ verify = recipient/callout

/etc/exim4/conf.d/router/900_exim4-config_local_user:

 

# There are no local users in /etc/passwd. Check is done by callout in ACL.

# Also there is no harm in having a mailbox named root.

local_user:

debug_print = "R: local_user for $local_part@$domain"

driver = accept

domains = +local_domains

- check_local_user

- local_parts = ! root

transport = LOCAL_DELIVERY

cannot_route_message = Unknown user

 

/etc/exim4/conf.d/transport/30_exim4-config_cyrus_delivery:

 

+ # LMTP over TCP/IP, allows callout verification, needs `lmtpd -a`

+ cyrus_delivery:

+ driver = smtp

+ protocol = lmtp

+ hosts = 127.0.0.1

+ allow_localhost

 

/etc/exim4/conf.d/auth/30_exim4-config_examples

 

Uncomment all examples where driver = cyrus_sasl. Set server realm to full hostname, or check what is behind @ in sasldblistusers2. NTLM and MD5 authentication can be allowd even over unencrypted connections.

 

/etc/imapd.conf

 

sasl_pwcheck_method: auxprop

sasl_auxprop_plugin: sasldb

 

/etc/cyrus.conf

 

lmtp cmd="lmtpd -a" listen="localhost:lmtp" prefork=0 maxchild=20

#lmtpunix cmd="lmtpd" listen="/var/run/cyrus/socket/lmtp" prefork=0 ...

 

/etc/services

 

lmtp 24/tcp

 

--- eof ---

 

I have omitted lots of other changes I do to exim config, as they are not related to exim-cyrus integration.
