Description Marja Van Waes 2021-10-01 22:30:26 CEST
The first mail that I sent to one of our mailing lists with my new e-mail account, bounced with:

Reporting-MTA: dns; outbound.soverin.net
X-Postfix-Queue-ID: D30316020C
X-Postfix-Sender: rfc822; marja11@xxxxxxx.nl
Arrival-Date: Fri,  1 Oct 2021 19:56:12 +0000 (UTC)

Final-Recipient: rfc822; discuss@ml.mageia.org
Original-Recipient: rfc822;discuss@ml.mageia.org
Action: failed
Status: 5.7.4
Diagnostic-Code: X-Postfix; TLS is required, but was not offered by host
    neru.mageia.org[163.172.148.228]


I already turned that requirement off for my new mail account. However, filing this enhancement request anyway, because it would be nice to have and because likely more e-mail providers will start requiring this by default.

    Create a self-signed certificate for incoming mail (mga#29514)
    
    This still needs to be enabled once it's checked.

Comment 3 Dan Fandrich 2024-02-09 20:21:58 CET
This is now done. All mails to and from Mageia mail servers now have opportunistic TLS available. The certificate used for incoming mail is self-signed, but that doesn't seem to be an issue in the current Internet.
