What is it?

A puppet module that installs and configures postfix to either accept mail on locahost only and forward it on to a server responsible for sending it to its final destination, or as a server accepting mail and responsible to forwarding it to its final destination. This is to keep this module simple and is not intended to handle mailboxes, spam/av filtering, or any advanced postfix configs, but rather to configure internal email servers for utility purposes.

Usage:

If you have a webserver that sends mail and you would like a local SMTP server running you trust not to loose the message if upstream is down:

  class { 'postfix':
    relay_domains => 'myotherdomain.com',
  }

Note: This assumes $::domain has proper MX records in place and the configured MX hosts will accept mail from this host.

To configure a relay server responsible for delivering all of those messages (and assuming your internal network is 10/8):

  class { 'postfix':
    smtp_relay      => true,
    relay_networks  => '10.0.0.0/8',
  }
