Installing pagure's milter
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
A milter is a script that is ran by a Mail Transfer Agent (`MTA
|
|
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Message_transfer_agent>`_)
|
|
upon receiving an email via either a network or an unix socket.
|
|
|
|
If you want more information feel free to check out the corresponding page
|
|
on wikipedia: `https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milter
|
|
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milter>`_.
|
|
|
|
Configure your system
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
* Install the required dependencies
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
python-pymilter
|
|
|
|
.. note:: We ship a systemd unit file for pagure_milter but we welcome patches
|
|
for scripts for other init systems.
|
|
|
|
.. note:: It also requires a MTA, we used postfix.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Create an alias ``reply``
|
|
|
|
This can be done in ``/etc/aliases``, for example:
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
reply: /dev/null
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Activate the ability of your MTA, to split users based on the character ``+``.
|
|
This way all the emails sent to ``reply+...@example.com`` will be forwarded
|
|
to your alias for ``reply``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
In postfix this is done via:
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
recipient_delimiter = +
|
|
|
|
* Hook the milter in the MTA
|
|
|
|
In postfix this is done via:
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
non_smtpd_milters = unix:/var/run/pagure/paguresock
|
|
smtpd_milters = unix:/var/run/pagure/paguresock
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Install the files of the milter as follow:
|
|
|
|
+--------------------------------------+---------------------------------------------------+
|
|
| Source | Destination |
|
|
+======================================+===================================================+
|
|
| ``milters/comment_email_milter.py`` | ``/usr/share//pagure/comment_email_milter.py`` |
|
|
+--------------------------------------+---------------------------------------------------+
|
|
| ``milters/milter_tempfile.conf`` | ``/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/pagure-milter.conf`` |
|
|
+--------------------------------------+---------------------------------------------------+
|
|
| ``milters/pagure_milter.service`` | ``/etc/systemd/system/pagure_milter.service`` |
|
|
+--------------------------------------+---------------------------------------------------+
|
|
|
|
The first file is the script of the milter itself.
|
|
|
|
The second file is a file specific for systemd and ensuring the temporary
|
|
folders needed by the milter are re-created if needed at each boot.
|
|
|
|
The third file is the systemd service file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Activate the service and ensure it's started upon boot:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
systemctl enable pagure_milter
|
|
systemctl start pagure_milter
|
