SMTP relaying

[Ariel Costas]

Hi there,

I've installed chasquid on my email server (which used to run
Postfix+Dovecot), but I used an SMTP relay because some providers
blocked email from my IP address.

Is there a way to configure chasquid to use a relay service like Amazon
SES?

Thanks

This isn't supported by chasquid currently.

There is an experimental branch that implements a "smarthost" mode [1],
which you can try for this. If you do, please let me know how it goes.

I'm open to merging it, but because it adds a significant amount of
complexity, I want to make sure there is enough interest, use cases, and
testing for it.

You can find the code in the "smarthost" branch in all the usual places:

Thanks!
