EmailRelay is an email store-and-forward message transfer agent (MTA) that is designed to be simple to configure and highly reliable. It is a great solution for small companies or individuals who want to host their own email server. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install EmailRelay on OpenSUSE Latest.
Before we begin, ensure that you have the following:
sudo zypper install emailrelay
After executing the command, the OpenSUSE system will prompt you for the root password. Type the password and press "Enter."
Once the installation is complete, you can configure EmailRelay according to your preferences.
sudo nano /etc/emailrelay/emailrelay.conf
listen-addr: The IP address and port you want EmailRelay to listen on.session-timeout: The maximum time EmailRelay will hold a connection open.relay-addr: The address and port of your SMTP server.log-level: The level of logging you want EmailRelay to perform.Once you have made the necessary changes, save the configuration file by pressing "Ctrl + X" and then pressing "Y" to confirm the changes.
Restart the EmailRelay service by executing the command:
sudo systemctl restart emailrelay
To test whether EmailRelay is working correctly, you can use the following command to send an email through it:
echo "Hello World" | mailx -S smtp=localhost:587 you@example.com
Replace you@example.com with the email address you want to send the email to.
That's it! You have successfully installed and configured EmailRelay on OpenSUSE Latest. You can now use it to transfer emails between email clients and servers.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
