I've been having issues sending mail to my server, and there are indications of TLS errors (mostly from the maillog). What I've tried:
- Ensuring that postfix / dovecot can read the certificates (made new group "certs") and tested (see below for postfix tests)
- Ensured that there were no selinux alerts
openssl s_client -connect ${IP}:465
fails but port 443 worksnmap ${URL}
shows ports25,53,80,110,139,143,443,445,993,995
are all opennmap ${LOCALIP}
shows ports22,25,80,110,143,443,993,995
as open with465,587
closed.telnet ${IP} 25
and runningstarttls
(fails with454 4.7.0 TLS not available due to local problem
)- letsencrypt certificates are copied from a working haproxy server (all of
/etc/letsencrypt
is copied) - Resetting
/etc/postfix/*.cf
by moving them to *.cf.bak and reinstalling postfix
Additional notes:
- I've been running
ansible-hardening
fromhttps://github.com/openstack/ansible-hardening
on the server. - The certificates are valid for https usage (verified with Firefox)
- Tried sending email to server with gmail and sharklasers

Both openssl commands give effectively equivalent responses (port 443 has different response, and works).
