yum install postfix

systemctl restart postfix

yum install cyrus-sasl cyrus-sasl-lib cyrus-sasl-plain

yum install mailx

 

  • Edit main.cf

  • Add blow lines to the end of main.cf

#postfix send email via gmail on Aug 09 2020

relayhost = [smtp.gmail.com]:587
smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtp_sasl_password_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd
smtp_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
smtp_use_tls = yes

 

  • Create the file /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd with the following contents:

nano /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd

  • Add your Gmail information
[smtp.gmail.com]:587 user.name@gmail.com:password
  • Restrict permissions on the postfix file:

chmod 400 /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd

chown root.root /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd

  • Hash the file into a .db that Postfix will read:
postmap /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd
  • Change the owner of the sasl_passwd to the postfix user:

chown postfix /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd

  • Reload postfix:

service postfix restart

  • Test email

echo “Test mail from postfix” | mail -s “Test Postfix” youremail@gmail.com

 

Debian or Ubuntu Server:

The process is almost same as CentOS, the only difference is to install mailutils instead of mailx.

sudo apt install mailutils
