Waiting on #21

Postfix basic configuration complete. Postfix alias for local delivery still to do. Postfix hardening still to do.

@andybarnes Can you confirm the status of this and how to test mail is working?

ghost commented 11 years ago

this is still pending. I am currently capturing an administration email address during the install process - but we are doing nothing with it. I need to add an alias that matches the email address that is entered in /etc/aliases. I also need to validate that the email address entered is valid, however this is non trivial. It won't prevent the server functioning but we won't be able to redirect local notification emails until this is resolved. Currently working on this.

In terms of priority - guidance on how to get a running system directly mail correctly would be most useful at this point.

If this issue takes a lot of time to address then please leave open - so long as we have a way to get the actual deployment at http://beta.linked-development.org/ sending the log mails to me ok...

my priority is to resolve this next - it was only superseded by php5.4 as it was holding the API stuff up.

I'll be deploying a first effort fix tomorrow morning and testing it throughout the day - hopefully we can cross it off then!

first pass at mailserver config is now comitted. The email address entered during installation is used to set the alias for the local root account (all root mail is forwarded). I can advise how to test this, I used a bad crontab file that tries to launch a script that doesnt exist and I get cron failures to my external mail account.
