<0> i'm trying to understand the flow when sendmail checks if a mail can relay
<0> recently updated sendmail on a bunch of machines to address the vulnerability
<0> and now the web server cannot send mail
<0> relaying is denied for httpd with a message that there is no such user
<0> i've tried stracing and i don't see it reference the p***wd file or anything
<0> funny thing is we're using the same sendmail.cf file and submit.cf file
<0> we have another server that was also updated, and it works. i've checked and the .cf files are identical, permissions on all installed files the same..
<0> i'm at a loss
<0> additionally, i tried giving the httpd user a shell so i can log into a shell with it, and same thing
<0> so it's not an apache config problem
<1> hi , does any one knows how can i change the path where my maillogs are stored ?
<2> change filename in syslog (likely to be /etc/syslog.conf)
<1> ok, will check on that ty
<1> Cowboy_ : should i restart something after the change is done ?
<1> sendmail ?
<3> syslogd



<1> thank you
<1> would this line be good to do what i want ?
<1> mail.* -/usr/MAIL-LOGS
<1> to change the path of the maillog files to that dir
<3> i would not log into /usr
<1> why ?
<3> i think it is against FHS
<1> oh, its because my maillogs have grown way too big, and /usr its the biggest partition i had
<1> i had them on /var/log before but i am trying to move them
<1> but would that line work for /var/log/maillog , and /var/maillog.1 , and those logs ... does it include those logs ?
<3> .(number) logs are rotated
<1> shouldnt i use something like maillog.* ? instead of mail.* ?
<3> no
<3> read about syslog, which facilities it provides
<1> ok
<4> hallo
<5> plugh
<6> i manage to send email out from the sendmail, but when i access to my mail server using dovecot pop3 server from internet, and send a email to my friend, i receive a error at my outlook express, please take a look at the error message http://pastebin.com/639414
<7> you need to allow relaying for the client system somehow
<7> to allow relaying from random Internet addresses, you'll need SMTP AUTH
<6> i did
<6> wait
<6> i think i did not
<6> how to do this? do you have any guide ?
<6> hwo to allow relaying from random Internet address?
<6> i done it :)
<8> Morning ALL
<8> I have 4475 email messages in stuck in que because of the following error "DSN: Service unavailable" Does anyone know how/where to fix this?
<8> ok nevermind guys...I fixed it...my /etc/aliases file did not have anyone to accept root's email so I set that up and now email is flowing
<9> Hi where in the sendmail doc are the log levels defined?
<9> struener: does the default local delivery agent use .procmailrc files?
<9> struener: b/c my rules are being followed and i did not setup debian to use procmail.
<9> tralala: yes I am actually working on adding dspam but cannot figure out why dspam is not doing it's local delivery and i just happened to notice that sendmail is using procmail by default without me explicitely telling it to.
<10> Hi guys, I need an easy mail agent to collect mail on my server which I can then store in a mysql database and and access from a php app ... ? any ideas or examples would be greatly appreciated. I know nothing about MTA's or that kinda stuff, so something easy to configure would be great
<6> is there any way to allow sendmail accesses by via web?
<9> struener: does the procmail package make sendmail use procmail
<9> jm_: actually it depends on sendible-mda which is a psuedonym for procmail
<9> Sensible-mda is called by the MTA, and will in turn call whichever of
<9> the following MDAs that it finds (in this order):
<9> procmail, maildrop, deliver, mail.local
<9> ok so it looks to me like sendmail is calling sensible-mda which defaults to procmail if it is installed but i want it to use dspam so how would i change this?
<9> ok I think i get it it was in debians make file
<9> how would I start sendmail in a mode that it only answers to local requests so that i can debug something on my main mail server
<9> for instance say i have another sendmail.cf file and i want to run one instance of sendmail with logging on in the foreground long enough to send one email but not have anything else come in from the outside while i am running my test
<11> Why not use another port and restrict access to localhost (127.0.0.1)?
<9> so like start a second sendmail at the same time wiith different ports?
<9> on the same host?
<9> can i do that?
<11> Yes
<9> Rado: like sendmail -Cnewconfig.cf
<9> or do i need more args
<9> I know how to change DAEMON in .mc
<11> I think so, but I never did it myself... ;)
<9> Rado: oh ok I will try some stuff
<6> currently i authenticate to my smtp server using user@domain instead of just username only?
<6> currently i authenticate to my smtp server using user instead of username@domain.com, how to configure to use a username@domain to authenticate?
<9> hmmmm getting the following error 451 4.0.0 opendaemonsocket: daemon MSA: cannot bind: Address already in use
<3> FEATURE(`no_default_msa',`dnl')dnl
<9> Zerberus: I have that do i need to do something different with ports
<9> Zerberus: or is there some tutorial somewhere
<9> basically i just want to see why the config I made is not calling dspam correctly?



<9> can i use testing mode -bt for this?
<6> it is smtp authentication must use ssl?
<3> kelvin^8^: no
<3> lindenle: might be possible, i don't know much about dspam, nothing about your setup
<12> Hi!
<12> do sendmail block backscattering or do i need something in my config
<9> right but in general there must be a way to ask sendmail to show you what it would do with a mail as a test?
<11> lindenle, then try it with bt.
<12> how can i block this mailscattering i get tons of mails
<6> Zerberus: how to configure it?
<12> anyone familiar with backscattering i get tons of mails where there is no sender and to invalid names@domain
<12> so the sysetm overload
<3> kelvin^8^: depends on your OS, your auth backend ...
<3> bentlarse: throttle connections
<6> Zerberus: why i cant do ssl connection while my avg is on?
<9> right bt only seems to tell me which mailer it would use but not test that mailer
<3> kelvin^8^: sorry?
<3> kelvin^8^: i didn't say you can't use SSL in combination with SMTP AUTH - just commented to your question that it is no requirement
<13> Hello
<13> currently my sendmail server use username to do authentication, how to configure it use username@domain.com instead of just username?
<6> er
<13> who the **** are you?
<6> you question sound like ...
<3> wamty_: use a backend which supports such kind of usernames
<13> ok
<13> will try
<9> ok maybe this will do it....
<6> Zerberus: i did not said it cant, i mean when my client installed AVG antivirus and enable email scanning protection. and if my client using ssl smtp. it will failed
<3> kelvin^8^: well, don't use such crap client software then
<3> Norton AV is well know to too break SSL/TLS protected SMTP AUTH connections
<3> not fixed within years
<6> ooo
<6> ic
<13> thanks zerberus
<13> kelvin.. my question sound like what?
<6> i asked before :)
<6> Zerberus: i usin this in my m4 define(`confAUTH_OPTIONS',`A p'), how to enable authentication without ssl?
<3> kelvin^8^: did you read about those parameters, what they cause?
<6> i paste it to pastit, wait
<6> http://pasteit.org/paste.php?showcode=33
<3> kelvin^8^: and? what do you want to tell me?
<3> did you read the comments inside your sendmail.mc?
<6> yes
<6> why i must enable ssl inorder to authenticate user?
<3> well, then the step is abvious
<6> oooo
<7> SSL protects plaintext p***words, unless you're using something ***y like Kerberos
<6> so what is the correct configuration? i jsut follow some guide on web to do this
<3> kelvin^8^: reread your sendmail.mc
<3> what to set to not enforce SSL for plaintext p***words is commented in there!
<6> wait
<6> comment this out?
<6> define(`confAUTH_OPTIONS',`A p')?
<7> Try It And See...
<6> ok
<6> yeahhh
<6> thank guy
<6> wait try one more time to comfirm
<14> hi all
<15> my name Rado
<14> in Sendmail version 8.13.5, config V10/Berkeley how i start the sendmail ??/usr/sbin/sendmail -bd -q30m. or /usr/local/sbin/sendmail -bd -q30m ?
<3> TheBest: depends on the install location
<3> btw. you should update to the bug fixed 8.13.6
<14> how i upgrade sendmail ?? 6.1-PRERELEASE FreeBSD
<3> TheBest: ask you OS handbook
<14> i use 8.13.5, to install from ports
<3> depends whether you run sendmail from system or ports
<14> ports
<3> if you run a development tree FreeBSD you should know about that all
<3> not kidding
<14> i use pkg_add -rv sendmail
<14> 8.13.5 is vulnerabile ?
