Looking for some assistance.
I had previously contributed an created an article on how to setup Carbonio to relay outbound messages based on the domain, using a username and password for each domain (which was necessary for my provider).
However, it turns out that anytime Carbonio does an upgrade, it overwrites the zmconfigd.cf that contains the necessary details, requiring the file to be copied back in place after the upgrade.
I know that the WebUI has an option where you can configure the relay host as a Global setting (not ideal in my case, but better than mail bouncing), however I cannot find where you can set the Credentials required by the Relaying host.
Maybe its something that can be done using CLI, however I have not been able to find clear details on what they file needs to be and how to reference it.
Are there any details somewhere that I am just missing ? Will the Authentication field be added to the WebUI in the future ?
Please advise so that I can resolve the issue.. although possibly not an issue until the next upgrade.
What you have described is correct. During upgradation, Carbonio overwrites system configuration files. As of now, there are no options to configure credentials. There are no plan for adding authentication field in the WebUI. We will inform our users in the forum if there are any development on this topic.
About overwriting situation, please try to save all the modifications to external files and call them in main.cf/master.cf. Still, I would suggest you to check this approach with test up-gradation and save these customization in-case the system overwrites these.
okay thanks, for main.cf, the format appears to be as below assuming the location of the maps file / name.
sender_dependent_relayhost_maps = /opt/zextras/conf/postfix_sender_dependent_relayhost_maps.cf
I tested it and it worked, just hopefully it remains through upgrades but I will monitor after next upgrade.
As far as feeback for the Authentication details, for me at least, ability to set it Authentication credentials via a file, is still better than nothing...
