6 axMail - A powerful but simple SMTP plugin for URONode.
7
9 axmail.conf
10
12 axmail.conf This file configures the operations of axMail-FAX. You have
13 to insure that you add the proper group using addgroup. The common one
14 to use is "ax25".
15
17 The following opions are supported for axmail.conf:
18
19 IdleTimeout This should not be longer than the same command in uron‐
20 ode.conf.
21
22 HostName This is the fully qualified hostname of your mail system.
23 Typically this would be an amprnet domnain such as
24 n1uro.ampr.org.
25
26 AllowMail This command controls who has access to use mail on your
27 system. The default is all.
28
29 Identification
30 This shows how users can authenticate into the applica‐
31 tion. The default is none as the password used over RF
32 may also be used for popping/imap if the local sysop
33 chooses to do this. Disconnect user from their mailbox."
34
35 AutoCreate This allows creation of the user accounts. Since you can
36 also configure dovecot or a pop3 daemon and pop-before-
37 smtp to allow mail on smartphones as well, this should be
38 set to yes which is default.
39
40 LoginAllowed This grants or denies permissions for other functions
41 such as ssh on the box. This also controls access to
42 imap/pop. Default is yes.
43
44 AutoGroup I suggest using ax25. You'll have to set this using
45 addgroup ax25.
46
47 First_uid This is the first user id numeric to be used when axmail
48 creates accounts. I suggest 2000 as this keeps mail
49 clients 1000 UID away from actual local clients so it'll
50 somewhat separate them this way.
51
52 Last_uid This sets just how many users may create and use mail‐
53 boxes using axmail.
54
55 HomeDir This sets the base of the users home directory. I suggest
56 using the standard home directory for all users.
57
58 Shell This is the shell the users are granted. I suggest if you
59 wish not to allow ssh or telnet access into your server
60 to use /bin/false.
61
62 FaxGate This is the efax gateway to send your faxes through to.
63 The SFax command will preformat your mail to use this
64 gateway. Remove the quotes.
65
67 /usr/local/etc/ax25/welcome.txt
68 Greeting file for new users to welcome them to the mail system.
69
70 /etc/postfix/main.cf
71 postfix configuration file.
