Hi,
I am trying to relay mail through the iredmail Server. Basically I set up a Debian satelite System. I have a user configured on iredmail which the satelites should use to authenticate for sending.
I used this before successfully but with iRedMail the authentication does not take place.
It works when I whitelist the IP in Postfix main.cf and iredapd config, but then auth is not neccesarry, so that's not really the solution. It should work just authenticating, right?
I think it could have to do with postscreen running on Port 25 but then on the other hand, delivering mail for local account works and normal clients don't have a problem, so why should the satelites have one?
main.cf from iredmail Server:

Additionally, why do the two servers use TLS 1.3, although it's disabled on the iredmail server?
