安装Proxmox Email Notification Configuration

Configuring User E-mail Address

1. In a web browser, navigate to the Proxmox web UI and login
2. Select Datacenter > Permissions > Users from the left navigation menus
3. Double click the user to configure
4. Complete the E-mail field on the Edit User form > Click OK

Simple Configuration via Web UI

By default, Proxmox will try to use the domain portion of the "Email from address" as the e-mail relay server.

1. Select Datacenter > Options from the left navigation menus
2. Double click the Email from address field
3. Enter the e-mail address that Proxmox will send outgoing e-mails from > Click OK
4. Expand Datacenter > Select the node name > Click Shell in the left navigation menus
5. Run the following commands in the terminal
   # send a basic test email
   echo "Test email from Proxmox: $(hostname)" | /usr/bin/proxmox-mail-forward
   # output the mail log
   cat /var/log/mail.log
6. Notice the relay is the domain (i12bretro.local) from the Email from address setting

Advanced Configuration via CLI

To make more advanced configuration changes, like using a gmail account, you need to edit the postfix settings via command line

1. Back in the Proxmox web shell, run the following commands in the terminal
   # install libsasl
   apt install libsasl2-modules -y
   # edit the postfix config
   nano /etc/postfix/main.cf
2. Press CTRL+W and search for mydestination
3. Comment out mydestination by adding a # to the beginning of the line
4. Press CTRL+W and search for relayhost
5. Comment out relayhost by adding a # to the beginning of the line
6. Update or add the following configuration

   relayhost = smtp.gmail.com:587
   smtp_use_tls = yes
   smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes
   smtp_sasl_security_options =
   smtp_sasl_password_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd
   smtp_tls_CAfile = /etc/ssl/certs/Entrust_Root_Certification_Authority.pem

7. Press CTRL+O, Enter, CTRL+X to write the changes
8. Continue with the following commands in the terminal
   # create /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd
   nano /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd
9. Add a line to configure gmail authentication

   smtp.gmail.com:587 <%youraccount%>@gmail.com:<%yourpassword%>

10. Press CTRL+O, Enter, CTRL+X to write the changes
11. Continue with the following commands in the terminal
    # update postfix lookup tables
    postmap hash:/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd
    # limit access to sasl_passwd to only root
    chmod 600 /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd
    # restart postfix service
    systemctl restart postfix
    # test from postfix directly
    echo "Test email from Proxmox: $(hostname)" | mail -s "Proxmox Testing" <%youraccount%>@gmail.com
    # send a test from proxmox
