Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/modoboa/modoboa/issues/1036

Modoboa: 1.6.3
installer used: Yes
Webserver: Nginx

Steps to reproduce

Install Modoboa and navigate to Relay Domains page.

Current behavior

Relay Domains shows a single input to verify master.cf but no other options.

Expected behavior

Modoboa should offer ability to configure relay domains.

Video/Screenshot link (optional)

I am trying to relay all outgoing for all domains through another host. If I am correct, the "Relay Domains" section would be the place to do that, however I don't see any options to set it up. I have double checked that the path to master.cf is correct.

I have also tried doing this manually in main.cf by adding:

smtp_sasl_password_maps = static:Username:Password
relayhost = [host]:587

However, on attempting to relay email, Postfix is not authenticating and the remote server rejects it. I am not sure if smtp_sasl_password_maps is compatible with Modoboa's default setup, which is why I turned to the "Relay Domains" section and found there were no options.

I had some more time to look into this and I understand my mistake now, and understand what relay domains are for, and that this is not what I am looking for. I still don't know what I can do to get the relayhost to authenticate properly but clearly relay domains are not the way to go about that. Sorry for the confusion, I will close this issue.
