Mail: smtp proxy without authentication.
Activated by auth method "unauth" in smtp_auth directive.
Waits for MAIL FROM and first RCPT TO from client, asks auth_http for
backend with additional headers Auth-SMTP-Helo, Auth-SMTP-From,
Auth-SMTP-To, and establishes connection to backend.
Auth-SMTP-From/To currently contain full command (e.g. "mail from: <>"),
this may change in future.
The functionality was designed to take off load from real smtp servers.
Additionally it may be used to implement pop-before-smtp authentication
(but dont do it unless you really need it - use real auth instead).
Current bug-features:
- If only "unauth" method activated in config, other methods (e.g. plain,
login) not advertised but accepted. Make sure your auth server handles
this gracefully.
- If backend server returns error on MAIL FROM / RCPT TO command while
proxy tunnel setup, nginx will close connection to client with 4xx
error. One may use proxy_pass_error_message directive to pass original
error message to client.
- Syntax of MAIL FROM / RCPT TO commands from client isn't checked.
