Thanks. I got my installation working yesterday. I have proxies for LMTP and
IMAP (no POP3) backed by a farm of Dovecot servers. The IMAP proxy listens on 70
different IPs/ports and does passdb lookups to authenticate the users based on
the incoming IP/port. The passdb lookups select the particular backend server
containing the user?s mailbox. SMTP (Postfix) does authentication through the
IMAP proxy and mail delivery through the LMTP proxy. I haven?t bothered to set
up an SMTP proxy yet, since my SMTP server will only handle submission and not
relay. Submitted messages are queued to a Redis queue for importation into a
MySQL database where the messages are held giving the sender the ability to
edit/delete their messages before midnight. Messages are sent out to the
recipient mailboxes in the early morning through another internal SMTP server
talking to the LMTP proxy.
For my site, I only want to delivery new messages once a day (in the early
morning) with the sender/mailbox admin having the opportunity to edit/delete the
messages the day it is sent by the sender.
All appears to be working well, but I?m currently only doing SSL/TLS on the edge
(in SMTP/IMAP) and haven?t figured out how to do SSL from end to end. I?m not
sure if end to end SSL is important for my site, but it seems to be a trend that
should not be ignored.
