relay_domains
Name
relay_domains — configure the list of domains for which Momentum relays mail
Synopsis
relay_domains = ( "*.example.com" "example.net" )
Description
When Momentum is configured as an inbound mail relay or gateway, it is necessary to specify for which domains you are willing to accept mail. Accepting mail from anyone for any destination would make you an open relay and vulnerable to abuse.
With the relay_domains
option, you may specify a list of domains and left-globbed domains for which the instance will relay mail (accept for delivery). Left-globbed domains are of the form *fixed.ending
. For example, *.example.com
would not match example.com (as the dot is required) but would match test.example.com, mail.example.com, foo.example.com, etc. *example.com
would match example.com. However, it would also match badexample.com, which is usually undesirable, so in most cases the asterisk should be followed by a period.
If a domain is specified as a relay domain any incoming message that has its envelope to
set to that domain, will be relayed. This setting works independently of the relay_hosts
setting.
To accept mail for the domain example.com
and all subdomains under it, specify:
relay_domains = ( example.com *.example.com )
Note
Any addresses set in the addresses
option of the “fbl - Feedback Loop” must be set in the relay_domains
option.
Scope
relay_domains
is valid in the global, pathway_group, and pathway scopes.
