Role Name

role-common-send_only_mta

Description

Configure Postfix on Debian as a send-only Mail Transfer Agent.

Requirements

Your target machines must be Debian.

Role Variables

Per defaults/main.yml this role expects both a recipient e-mail address and login credentials for an SMTP mail submission server to be available in a HashiCorp Vault instance. Feel free to override these variables as needed with host or group vars. If you stick with HashiCorp Vault the default path for SMTP credentials is settings/comms/e-mail/default/sender, the default path for a recipient address is settings/comms/e-mail/default/recipient.

Sender data

  • addr-spec: Your sender e-mail address rendered as an RFC 2822 addr-spec string such as noreply@example.com.
  • credentials-password-sasl-smtp-auth-login: A password that Postfix will use to log in to the SMTP mail submission server via the AUTH LOGIN SMTP SASL authentication mechanism.
  • credentials-username: The SMTP username needed to log in to the SMTP mail submission server.
  • submission-server-fqdn: Your upstream SMTP mail submission server's fully qualified domain name such as smtp.example.com.
  • submission-server-port: The TCP port you want Postfix to use to connect to the SMTP mail submission server.

Recipient data

  • addr-spec: Same as above, a recipient e-mail address rendered as an RFC 2822 addr-spec string such as noreply@example.com.

Dependencies

None.
