We moved to Google Apps and although I still have a mail relay arrangement with a local ISP, I really need to get my FreeBSD 8.1 server to relay through smtp.gmail.com. This requires and authenticated smtp connection.
My server not only originates messages from bugzilla, zabbix, mediawiki which are running on it, it also receives, queues, and sends messages from other servers within my private domain.
I have always used postfix for this. After many, MANY, hours of working with Cyrix SASL2 I have not been able to create a connection to the account I created at gmail for this purpose. I also tried these instructions with another server (smtpout.secureserver.net) and I am getting nowhere.
Today I found Setting up to send only, which looks promising. However, it suggests that I will disable sendmail or postfix. I want the server to be able to accept smtp connections from within my WAN only, and send them on out through gmail.
Can anyone help me to understand how to attain both of these goals? Many thanks!
