Message Transport Agent
With this [Message_transport_agent Message Transport Agent] (MTA) service, OSGeo provides the ability to receive emails to osgeo.org and some subdomain addresses for services and community members.
Note that this is not a full email service with an inbox to manage and store messages.
It is the central OSGeo MX, running Postfix
It is managed via AnsibleDeployment using the mail-server role
Setting up mail alias
Setting up aliases can be done via ansible, editing deployment/roles/mail-server/files/etc/aliases
and running the deployment/deploy-mail-servers.yml playbook with the mail-aliases tag,
for example:
ANSIBLE_CONFIG=ansible.osgeo.prod.cfg \ ansible-playbook deployment/deploy-mail-servers.yml \ --tags mail-aliases --check --diff
