Postfix is Wietse Venema's mailer that started life as an alternative to the
|
|
widely-used Sendmail program. It attempts to be fast, easy to administer, and
|
|
secure, while at the same time, being sendmail compatible enough to not upset
|
|
existing users. Thus, the outside has a sendmail-ish flavor, but the inside is
|
|
completely different.
|
|
|
|
This script builds postfix with support for Dovecot SASL, Cyrus SASL, and
|
|
TLS (using OpenSSL.) Support for Berkeley DB hash and btree maps, being a
|
|
Postfix requirement, is also detected and built.
|
|
|
|
In addition database plugins are built for LDAP, MySQL, PCRE and sqlite3. To
|
|
add support for additional database plugins which are not provided in
|
|
Slackware, such as CDB or PostgreSQL, it is necessary to recompile this
|
|
package. See the comments in the SlackBuild script to get started.
|
|
|
|
Postfix manual sections follow the BSD standard, where section 8 is only for
|
|
daemons, and all user commands, even root-user-only administrative commands
|
|
such as postfix(1), are in section 1.
|
|
|
|
Postfix is exceptionally well documented. If you put a link to your
|
|
html_directory (/usr/doc/postfix/html) somewhere you can find it in your
|
|
favorite browser, all of this will be readily available to you. The place
|
|
to start is not with man pages, but with the various READMEs, all HTMLified
|
|
and with convenient hyperlinks to the relevant anchors in the HTML versions
|
|
of the manuals.
