While we have not encountered the TLS issue with Gmail (see below) we are in the same boat otherwise. postfix-3.8.20221007 seemed like the newest version a while back and so we are running that version. Going back to 3.7.9 seems like it may be a partial step backwards.

Meanwhile Postfix 3.8.5 (along with versions 3.7.10, 3.6.14, 3.5.24) seem to have become a stable releases [1| but alas there are no OpenBSD ports for these versions yet.

So instead of directing people to the older stable release version 3.7.9 maybe a better plan would be to eventually create a port for 3.8.5?


BTW: On OpenBSD 7.4-stable amd64 using postfix-3.8.20221007p12 I was able to send and receive emails to/from Gmail without problems. So maybe Mark has some sort of configuration issue? Note however that we are not using the -sasl2-mysql flavor of the port so that might make a difference?
