Enable insecure SMTP service 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

Find comment out settings in Postfix config file /etc/postfix/main.cf (Linux/OpenBSD) or /usr/local/etc/postfix/main.cf (FreeBSD):

#
# Enable SASL authentication on port 25 and force TLS-encrypted SASL authentication.
# WARNING: NOT RECOMMENDED to enable smtp auth on port 25, all end users should
#          be forced to submit email through port 587 instead.
#
#smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes
#smtpd_tls_auth_only = yes
#smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
#smtpd_tls_security_level = may

uncomment the last 4 lines:

smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtpd_tls_auth_only = yes
smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
smtpd_tls_security_level = may

Restart or reload Postfix service.

That's all.
