<div class="iw_mail" dir="ltr" style="font-size: 13px;"><div style="font-size:13px;" dir="ltr" class="iw_mail"><div>Hi,</div><div><br></div><div>My situation is as follows.</div><div><br></div><div>-An internet-facing spam filter relays email to destination mail server (Dovecot) with SMTP.</div><div>- Dovecot should take email and deliver it to user's mailboxes. I guess I'd need LMTP for this.</div><div>- An external SMTP relay is already in place. I am thinking of using Dovecot submission to relay to the external relaying cluster.</div><div><br></div>So, both relaying and routing are done externally - the Dovecot machine should only store mail. Of course, there should also be a mechanism that takes care of local delivery to Dovecot, like LMTP. Usually, I would use an MTA like Exim to take care of local delivery. I feel like a fully-featured MTA is overkill, though, as all other roles such an MTA would fulfill - relaying and spam filtering - are fulfilled on external servers.<div><br></div><div>Q: Does anyone know of a lightweight LMTP daemon that can take care of local delivery to Dovecot without the need for a full MTA?</div><div class="iw-signature"><div><br></div><div>With kind regards,</div><div><br></div><div>William Edwards</div>T. 040 - 711 44 96<div>E. wedwards@cyberfusion.nl</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><img border="0" height="44" width="318" class="wm_inserted" src="https://cyberfusion.nl/img/CF-Logo-liggend-RGB.png" id="webClient_1573021897598"></div> </div></div></div>
