Re: Runng Let's Encrypt behind firewall

Thanks for the suggestion, the chances of getting port 80 opened from the outside are zero!

After doing a bit of reading of postfix, I've enabled TLS manually using the SSL cert I already head for the web interface. Just means an extra step to remember next year when the cert needs to be replaced.

Runng Let's Encrypt behind firewall

We were interested in turning on TLS on our EFA box (latest version). From reading on here, it seems I just needed to enable Let's Encrypt but ran into the problem below as the server is behind a firewall that only allows SMTP traffic through. Would you like to  Enable  Let's Encrypt? [y/n/c] y Savi...

eFa4.repo error

This probably doesn't make a difference but I noticed the yum reports this message whenever I do an update. Invalid configuration value: failovermethod=priority in /etc/yum.repos.d/eFa4.repo; Configuration: OptionBinding with id "failovermethod" does not exist I commented out that line whi...

Re: Salesforce CRM emails being rejected

After a morning reading about postfix config, I think I've a check now that lets this junk through from Salesforce but still blocks the spammers. In main.cf I've modified: smtpd_sender_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated, check_sender_access pcre:/etc/postfix/allow_salesforce_junk , reject_non_...

Salesforce CRM emails being rejected

Lots of vendors we deal with (Dell, Cadence & others) are now using Salesforce for handing customer queries. Problem is that all such emails are rejected by EFA due to the fabricated domains that Salesforce use for sending emails. e.g. Jan 4 15:34:55 efa postfix/smtpd[26850]: NOQUEUE: reject: RC...

Re: Something.doc.pdf|.docx.pdf|.xls.pdf|.xlsx.pdf blocked (Bad Content)

Thanks for this info, recently people have started using Docusign internally which has been bombarding us with .doc.pdf files which were getting blocked. This rule addition makes life a lot easier.

Re: Outgoing email stopped

I found how to not scan outgoing content by changing the content.scanning.rules file in /etc/MailScanner/rules. It's not the ideal solution so if anyone has any better suggestions would appreciate it.

Outgoing email stopped

We're still using 3.0.2.6 as haven't got round to moving v4 just yet. One thing I've noticed is that outgoing mail is scanned & if it's blocked it doesn't get included in the quarantine report sent to the user. This cropped up as someone accidentally sent an attachment with a dodgy extension whi...

Re: How to install EFA4 Beta RC2/RC3 on Hyper-V 2016

Just to confirm (as you might expect) this works fine for VMware environments as well. Thanks!

Re: Migration

Similar to the above, shouldn't be a problem cloning our existing efa VM to test a migration.

Re: EFA 4 beta

Just tried an install of this into a fresh VM using the kickstart file, the install went ok although looks like it shut itself down rather than rebooting when it finished (wasn't watching it sorry). After I powered it on again, it went through the initial setup and looks to be alive & well. I wa...

Re: Outgoing Mail

We're using efa for outgoing email also which is working fine but my boss asked me to check if there was a way to turn disable the spam checking in this case? Although personally I'm not sure why you might want to :?: Actually just realised we could presumably just whitelist our own domain & tha...

Re: SSL on 3.0.2.5 - how to?

Old topic I know but I just did this to get rid of the warning when users connect to the server to check spam etc. Where I work can generate our own certs so all I had to do was change three lines in the ssl.conf file: SSLCertificateFile /etc/pki/tls/certs/efa_domainname_ie.crt SSLCertificateKeyFile...

Greetings from Ireland

Just started using EFA as a replacement for an aging home-grown anti-spam/antivirus system. Looking good so far for the test group as they've noticed nothing :)
