As an example of how to set up your MTA, in postfix on Ubuntu, you might
add the following to its configuration.
In /etc/postfix/master.cf:
alaveteli unix - n n - 50 pipe
flags=R user=ALAVETELI_USER argv=ALAVETELI_HOME/script/mailin
In /etc/postfix/main.cf
virtual_alias_maps = regexp:/etc/postfix/regexp
For example
ALAVETELI_HOME=/path/to/alaveteli/software
ALAVETELI_USER=www-data
The user ALAVETELI_USER should have write permissions on ALAVETELI_HOME.
And, assuming you set `OPTION_INCOMING_EMAIL_PREFIX` in your config at
`config/general` to "foi+", create `/etc/postfix/regexp` with the following
content:
/^foi.*/ alaveteli
You should also configure postfix to discard any messages sent to the `BLACKHOLE_PREFIX`
address, whose default value is 'do-not-reply-to-this-address'. For example, add the
following to /etc/aliases:
# We use this for envelope from for some messages where we don't care about delivery
do-not-reply-to-this-address: :blackhole:
# Troubleshooting
To test mail delivery, run:
$ /usr/sbin/sendmail -bv foi+requrest-1234@localhost
This tells you if sending the emails to 'foi\+.*localhost' is working.
