smtp_sasl_auth_enable being Ignored
Posted: Sun 8. Dec 2024, 02:19
No idea where i should post this, sorry in advance if it's the wrong section of the forum.
Wanted to post the following as it could be useful to others:
In case you're updating/ using to ubuntu24 and you're using external smtp services and the configuration "smtp_sasl_auth_enable" is getting ignored, just change
default_transport = smtp:127.0.0.1:10027
to
default_transport = smtp
in etc/postfix/main.cf .
then reload the postfix service.
default_transport = smtp is the default value in ubuntu 22, but since i just switched from ubuntu 22 to 24 i couldn't figure out why my external smtp service has been ignored on the new ubuntu version until i found the above value.
For keyadmin developers: would be handy if you could set this value by default to "smtp" so other users don't have to search around.
All other informations regarding using external smtp services can be found in the postfix documentation or around the web.
Regards.
