Hi,

Maybe I'm to lazy or I'm just blind, but is it possible in an easy way
to allow a specific IP to send mail etc without username and password? I
use sasl authentication on my postfix machine and I want a outside
IP-address to be able to send e-mails without logging in.


Thanks,
Patric

Add the IP to $mynetworks

http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#mynetworks

and put $mynetworks before permit_sasl_authenticated in
smtpd_recipient_restrictions

http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#smtpd_recipient_restrictions

E.g.:

smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks,
permit_sasl_authenticated, reject_unauth_destination

I suppose you're talking about relaying through your MTA.

mynetworks = ..., a.b.c.d/32

You need to permit_mynetworks in smtpd_*_restrictions (this is the
default).

Caveat: is this IP one that you control? If not - ie, if it is a static
IP of one of your users, you'll need to always be aware of if/when it no
longer should be considered part of $mynetworks...
