I was hoping that someone might be able to point me in the right direction as I have been unsuccessful in finding information in the forum or through Google. My "issue" may also be the result of my inexperience with how the mail_sni feature is supposed to work.
Today I took the jump and enabled the mail_sni feature on my server. My goal is to allow users to configure their email (PC's, Mobile devices, Macs etc.) without having to use the host server name for SSL/TLS coections - e.g. use mail.domain.com vs server.mydomain.com. I followed the instructions at https://www.directadmin.com/features.php?id=2019. My exim.conf version went from v2.1.1 to v4.5.8. I am not currently using the advanced spam features.
After the upgrade I configured an SSL certificate using Let's Encrypt through DA, and selected the option to include "mail.domain.com" in addition to the default www.domain.com. DA showed that three certificates were generated correctly (mail.domain.com, domain.com and www.domain.com).
After all was completed I tested coectivity through Outlook by changing the incoming and outgoing sever settings to "mail.domain.com" which were previously set to use the host server over ports 993 and 465, both using SSL.
Now I am finding some differences in the way Outlook is able to coect using SSL/TLS which I was not expecting and am not certain if this is correct. Here is what I am finding:
I have been testing this and have a feeling my questions are due to inexperience.
Can anyone share some insight regarding the following?
1.) SMTP authentication appears to be a requirement for Port 465 in Outlook (but not Android or iOS) when using mail_sni - (e.g. when coecting to either mail.domain.com or the host server) - is this correct?
2.) On Android, I presume due to the certificate chain, coecting to mail.domain.com requires "accepting all certificates" whereas coecting to the host server does not - is this correct?
3.) I am also receiving excessive resource notifications from my installation of CSF regarding the processing time for /usr/libexec/dovecot/lmtp. I can disable these, however, I never received them before the upgrade. Have others experienced the same?
4.) Does the following warning still apply after implementing the mail_sni feature? (e.g. after CustomBuild upgraded exim.conf from v.2.1.1 to v4.5.8). I am not using the advanced Spam features:
Code:
WARNING! Do NOT use the Exim configuration file coverred by this ReadMe file unless you make the required modifications to your Exim configuration following the instructions in this ReadMe file.
Thank you!
