12:18.05j0nrargh
12:18.29j0nrif i simply want to be able to send email from a remote location using my mail server as smtp server, do i need a certificate or not
12:18.35j0nrguides on the net all conflict and confuse
12:19.39wethrinNo.
12:19.53wethrinYou can use SMTP with basic AUTH to do what you want
12:24.49z00daxstartls isnt hard to setup, and is a bit more secure. j0nr you can mostly just generate and use your own certs, you dont need to 'get paid for certs'
12:28.48j0nri'm annoyed
12:29.00j0nri set something up with certs.... now i can;t remember what i did
12:29.05j0nrnow i feel its a bit of a mess
12:29.23j0nri think the cert has expired
12:29.32j0nri cant send using my current setup
12:29.37j0nrfrom a remote location
12:29.47z00daxI tend to usually do self-made certs with an expiry into 10 years+
12:29.51j0nrthe net is just FULL of too many different ways of doing things and is confusing
12:30.16j0nri feel like removing postfix and dovecot and starting again
12:30.26z00daxthat sounds a bit harsh
12:30.29j0nrbut that might not get rid of the config files/certs....
12:30.45j0nrmy main.cf is full of sasl_ things
12:31.02j0nri think i need them to remote access my imap mail right?
12:31.15z00daxpostfix wont have anything to do with imap
12:31.31z00daxpostfix will handle inbound email and put it somewhere that dovecot and serve it out to clients from
12:31.45z00daxs/t and s/t can s/
12:32.20z00daxsiglunch!
12:32.45j0nrso why did i need to set up .pems etc?
12:33.36j0nrand .key
12:33.47j0nri have /etc/ssl/certs and private
12:33.57j0nreach containing a variety of .pem and .key
12:33.59j0nr.crt

12:58.45z00daxj0nr: depends on what you setup and how, postfix will use ssl /tls for email sending/recieve as well
13:08.10j0nrhttp://www.postfix.org/SASL_README.html#server_dovecot
13:08.35j0nrtrying that and i get a "could not establish a SSL connection" from my client
13:08.59j0nrso i wonder if other things i did previously is conflicting... as that guides mentions nothing about creating certs
13:09.18j0nrhow can i get a basic, unmolested postfox main.cf?
13:09.27j0nrs/postfox/postfix/
13:11.01j0nrshit all i want to do is send mail from a remote location
13:11.52z00daxj0nr: what distro are you on ?
13:12.15j0nrubuntu
13:12.23z00daxmost have a way to check / reinstall the 'clean' configs
13:14.22j0nrnot sure how i would do that
13:30.43antiphaseRemove the config files and `apt-get install --reinstall foo`
13:42.15j0nrok,... so following simple guides now... it still doesn't work
13:42.20j0nrson of a monkey's uncle!

14:12.52bilarhif you've already got a dropped kerb, you don't need to get planning permission to extend the drive way, do you?
14:13.49cpufreakphone up your local planning office and ask.
14:14.09AndyMillaror just do it
14:14.12cpufreakwhat are you extending the drive over?
14:14.15AndyMillarhaven't you learned from women?
14:14.22AndyMillarit's better to ask forgiveness than permission
14:14.31bilarhit's just hypothetical... was looking at a house on rightmove
14:14.35cpufreakI try not to let women teach me, iit never works out well.
14:14.46bilarhand it could have a big nice drive, but at the moment it's a puny little one car space
14:14.46cpufreaklast time it happened, she grabbed my leg, thinking it was a gear stick
14:15.17cpufreakhow many cars do you have?
14:15.40bilarhthree at present
14:18.26bilarh3 bed detached in need of complete renovation
14:18.32bilarhi don't know if i can be bothered
