I would like to contribute the Postfix Mail Transfer Agent.

Important: It requires cygwin 1.7.33-1 (or a recent 1.7.33-0.X test release). It does not work with 1.7.32-1.

For a first test try 'postfix-config --dryrun'. See the /etc/postfix/main.cf sample for some more info.


A new build is uploaded to same location.

Changes:
- postfix-config updated for new local MACHINE+USER names and new csih script
- postsuper and mailq no longer require 'passwd -R postfix'
- group with ID 0 in /etc/group is now supported
- some documentation updates

Use cases tested so far:

SMTP outgoing:
no encryption, STARTTLS,
no AUTH, SASL PLAIN AUTH.
Deliver to MX, forward to ISP, routing via transport table.

SMTP incoming:
no encryption, STARTTLS, SSL/TLS (self-signed certificates only),
no AUTH, SASL PLAIN AUTH.

Local delivery to:
~/Mailbox, ~/Maildir/, /var/spool/mail, /some/file, |/some/script, /dev/null :-)
Aliasing via /etc/aliases and ~/.forward.

Local delivery from:
/usr/sbin/sendmail emulation.

Not tested yet:
local delivery via procmail, SQL database tables, LDAP access, multi-instance, client-certificates, etc, etc, ...

Works with procmail as expected.


Thanks,
Christian
