Install Postfix on DS101j
* many tutorial I found from the web told me create client certificate in order to use gmail as relay. But the fact is that client certificate is NOT a must in order to talk to gmail SMTP. I just want the installation as simple as possible because all I need is to send out some alert email and some snapshot from the IP cam.
1. Login to the admin console. Create a user ‘mail’ and a group ‘mail’.
2. Telnet/SSH as root. Install postfix using ipkg. (uninstall xmail first if it is already existed)
# ipkg remove xmail # ipkg install postfix -force-depends
Make sure cyrus-sasl and cyrus-sasl-libs are installed as well, if not..)
# ipkg install cyrus-sasl # ipkg install cyrus-sasl-libs
