 The SDF CA is self-signed but can still be used if desired. Retrieve and store
 somewhere (ie. under ~/.openssl/) as pem file, then edit **~homeuser/.nailrc** like so:
+<file config ~homeuser/.nailrc>
-  set ssl-ca-file="/home/home_user/.openssl/sdf_self-signed_ca.pem"
+set ssl-ca-file="/home/home_user/.openssl/sdf_self-signed_ca.pem"
-  set ssl-verify="warn"  # will issue "self-signed CA" warning
+set ssl-verify="warn"  # will issue "self-signed CA" warning

 Account-specific smtp settings are possible; see the Heirloom Mailx documentation.
-Postfix MTA using libsaslc(3) on NetBSD 6.x:
-first, verify that postfix(1) knows about libsaslc :
-<code>
-% sudo postconf -A
-saslc
-<code>
-create (as superuser) the following postfix config files:
-**/etc/postfix/main.cf**
-<code>
- myhostname = mypc.my.box
-  mydomain = my.box
-  mynetworks_style = host
-  alias_maps = hash:/etc/mail/aliases
-  # SMTP client settings:
-  relayhost = [mx.sdf.org]:submission
-  smtp_generic_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/generic
-  smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes
-  smtp_sasl_password_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd
-  smtp_sasl_security_options = noplaintext, noanonymous
-  smtp_sasl_tls_security_options = noanonymous
-  ## explicitly allow/prohibit certain SSL protocols:
-  #smtp_tls_mandatory_protocols = !SSLv2, !SSLv3, TLSv1
-  ## use of "may" option allows fallback to cleartext
-  #smtp_tls_security_level = may
-  smtp_tls_security_level = encrypt
-  smtp_sasl_type = saslc
-</code>
-**/etc/postfix/generic**
-<code>
-  # applies to msgs to be delivered off-site
-  me@mypc.my.box  sdf_login@sdf.org
-</code>
-**/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd**
-(for security set ownership to root:wheel, permissions to 600)
-<code>  [mx.sdf.org]:submission  sdf_login.sdf.org:smtp_passwdrd</code>
-hash /etc/postfix/{generic,sasl_passwd}, then check and reload configs:
-<code>
-% cd /etc/postfix/
-% sudo postmap generic sasl_passwd  # creates generic.db & sasl_passwd.db
-% sudo postfix check                # no output unless errors
-% sudo /etc/rc.d/postfix reload
-</code>
-test to verify everything is working correctly:
-<code>
-% mailx sdf_login@sdf.org
-  Subject: test
-  .
-  EOT
-% sudo tail -n10 /var/log/maillog | grep smtp
-<nowiki>  Apr 27 08:53:42 mypc postfix/smtp[13387]: A61631F1FDC: to=<sdf_login@sdf.org>, \ </nowiki>

-You should now be set up to use SDF's SMTP server. Enjoy!
