  • 1.  Require inbound TLS

    Posted Sep 17, 2010 12:38 PM

    How do I enforce that a SENDER use TLS to talk to me?  I know how to enforce it outbound, but what about the reverse?

    I want to reject any mail from example.com that is not via a TLS session (it’s HR/Medical/etc data).  I don’t see a way to enforce this.

    You would add it as a (non-local) domain under Protocols and check the box to require TLS.

    I read that as requiring TLS for OUTBOUND delivery.  I want it FROM the domain.

    The Help isn't helpful:

    Optional delivery encryption

    Check to use TLS encryption for delivery on this domain. After you check this option, the three options below become available.

     

    On the Scanner, STMP, Inbound, I can assign a certificate, but that only allows inbound TLS, not require it. (admin guide page 89). 

    On page 102, it talks about requiring TLS on ALL message delivered:This there is Attempt TLS encryption for all messages: Instructs the MTA to attempt TLS encryption for all messages delivered.  Since this is on the Delivery Tab, I assume this mail leaving the MTA, not arriving.

    Page 115-116, discusses non-local domain

         You can also add non-local domains. You specify non-local domains primarily to
         route outbound email over established connections to external servers for non-local
         delivery. You can also define delivery options for non-local domains.

         Define different delivery options for each domain.

         ... snip...

         MX Lookup and TLS encryptions options are available for delivery of email
         that is addressed to non-local domains.

    So this doesn't address addressed FROM non-local domains.
