# Enable SMTP SASL AUTH on port 25

Since iRedMail-0.9.5, SMTP auth on port 25 is disabled by default, all end users are forced to send email through port 587 (SMTP over TLS). If you need to allow insecure SMTP auth on port 25 for some reason, please follow steps below to enable it.

Note

If you have just few clients need to send email through port 25, e.g. network printer, old network devices which don't support secure connection, you may try another tutorial instead: Allow internal network devices to send email with insecure connection

- Disable postscreen service first: Disable postscreen service.
- Enable smtp authentication by uncommenting settings below in Postfix config file `/etc/postfix/main.cf` (Linux/OpenBSD) or `/usr/local/etc/postfix/main.cf` (FreeBSD):

    smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes
    smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
    smtpd_tls_auth_only = yes

- Restart or reload Postfix service.

Note

With `smtpd_tls_auth_only = yes`, it requires clients to enable STARTTLS for secure connection, if you don't want this for some reason, please comment it out.
