Postfix SSL to MariaDB

Don't have direct experience, but it looks like you can tell Postfix to pick up configuration options from my.cnf. With your version of Postfix, you would need to add something like "option_group = client" to your Postfix MySQL configuration file.

However, it's not exactly clear to me whether SSL/TLS can be enabled client-side in MySQL/MariaDB with a configuration option, or whether a command-line option is necessary, so this may not help. Hopefully it's a start, anyway.

I'm 99% sure you can enable it with a config option, which I've tried, but I was not aware of the option_group command you referred to. I'll look into it.

Cool. Postfix is linked (on CentOS 7, anyway) with libmysqlclient, so it seems like it ought to have the same capabilities as the regular MySQL/MariaDB client programs.
