cdist-type__dma(7)
============================

NAME
----
cdist-type__dma - Setup the DragonFly Mail Agent as the MTA.


DESCRIPTION
-----------
This (singleton) type uses dma, a small Mail Transport Agent (MTA), to accept
mails from locally installed Mail User Agents (MUA) and deliver the mails
to a remote destination.

Remote delivery happens over TLS to one or more mailboxes that are local to the
email server configured in the `smart-host` parameter.


REQUIRED PARAMETERS
-------------------
smart-host
    The email server used to send email.
    It must be configured to act as a relay for the host being configured by
    this type so that mail can be sent to users non-local to the smart-host.


BOOLEAN PARAMETERS
------------------
send-test-email
    If present, after setup this type will send an email to root, to allow you
    to easily test your setup.


OPTIONAL PARAMETERS
-------------------
mailname
    If present, this will be the hostname used to identify this host and the
    remote part of the from addresses.
    If not defined, it defaults to `/etc/mailname` on Debian-derived Operating
    Systems and to `__target_host` otherwise.
    See `dma(8)` for more information.


EXAMPLES
--------

.. code-block:: sh

    __dma \
      --smart-host mx1.domain.tld \
      --send-test-email
