Surely there is a way to tell postfix to allow local deliveries regardless of who the sender is, and whether or not they are logged in? I would think this would be what people would normally want...?

They are trying to prevent spammers from spoofing customer MAIL FROM: addresses while delivering mail to other clients. This is a good thing. If you want to circumvent this check, either authenticate or -- if you cannot, for the reasons you previously cited -- ask them to exempt you from those particular checks. This really is no longer a Postfix issue, but rather a matter of policy between you and your provider. -- Sahil Tandon <sahil(a)FreeBSD.org> |
