Mailman Configuration

Mailman

Download the mailman-2.1.39 tarball, uncompress it, then compile it and install it:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mailman --with-python=/usr/bin/python2.7  --with-mail-gid=nogroup
make
make install

Fix permissions with:

usr/local/mailman/bin/check_perms -f

/usr/local/mailman/bin/mailmanctl restart

Apache

Configure apache, use HTTPS through letsencrypt.

In bind, create A record for ml.ninux.org

$ORIGIN ninux.org.
ml                      A       176.111.173.140

Use certbot to obtain a letsencrypt certificate:

certbot --apache -d ml.ninux.org run

Postfix

In main.cf

#DKIM
milter_default_action = accept
milter_protocol = 2
smtpd_milters = inet:localhost:8892
non_smtpd_milters = inet:localhost:8892

Use apache letsencrypt certificates also for postfix

smtpd_tls_cert_file=/etc/letsencrypt/live/ml.ninux.org/fullchain.pem
smtpd_tls_key_file=/etc/letsencrypt/live/ml.ninux.org/privkey.pem
smtpd_use_tls=yes

In master.cf

mailman   unix  -       n       n       -       -       pipe
  flags=FR user=list argv=/usr/local/mailman/bin/postfix-to-mailman.py ${nexthop} ${user}

  user=policyd-spf argv=/usr/sbin/postfix-policyd-spf-perl

DKIM

We use OpenDKIM

Generate a 2048 bits key

opendkim-genkey -b 2048 -d ml.ninux.org -D /etc/mail/dkim-keys/ml.ninux.org -s mail -v

/etc/opendkim.conf

The DNS entry to be added to bind is in /etc/mail/dkim-keys/ml.ninux.org/mail.txt

DNS entries in bind for SPF, DMARC and DKIM
