<0> twkm: excuse me, and the hosts file?
<1> no.
<1> mydomain.homelinux.org comes from homelinux.org.
<1> and the mx record goes in your domain's dns zone data file.
<0> ok,
<0> there is just something:
<0> twkm: @mydomain is registered at a domain provider and i have the possibility to change the MX
<0> so now, the MX is put to mydomain.homelinux.org, maybe it is wrong to do this because maybe i can put in my zone file "mail.mydomainpropvider" for MX record
<0> i don't know what is the best thing for sendmail ?
<0> point to dynDNS or use this mail.mydomainprovider
<1> only you know what you want as a result.
<1> pointing to dyn dns makes the mail come to your machine directly.
<1> pointing to your provider's mail server causes mail to go to their machine.
<0> ok, i thought that even not pointing to provider's mail server, the mail goes through it
<1> mail does where mx tells it to go.
<0> but you mean, if i tell mydomain provider not receive my incomings mail, they will go directly to my dyndns host
<1> no.
<0> ?
<1> i mean mail goes to the server that is named by the mx.
<0> ok; i prefer thsi answer
<0> so twkm, how sendmail has to be configured to receive the mails goes through my dyndns host ?
<0> does dyndns permit it ?
<1> dyndns doesn't care.
<1> they just point at your machine.
<0> twkm: but any incoming email is stopped at my dyndns host, i have got that kind of message:
<0> relaying denied (in reply to RCPT TO command
<1> did you configure your system to handle mail for the domain?
<0> that's the reason why i am here
<0> you told me that my MX record was good
<1> it is good. but it is not sufficient.
<0> are there others files i have to change to handle incoming mail
<0> ?
<0> twkm: ok so i am ready to challenge this
<1> have you read cf/README or doc/op/op.* as yet?
<0> i use sendmail installed by default, where are those doc files ?
<1> they are in the distribution tarball in exactly those directories.
<0> excuse my ignorance but can you give me a complete directory ?
<1> no, it depends where you were when you unpacked it.
<0> yes, sure
<0> i run fedora core 4
<0> by defult ?
<1> below where you unpacked it will be a directory named sendmail-x.x where x.x is the version you unpacked.
<1> below that are cf/ and doc/op/.
<0> whereis of course !!!!
<0> :-)
<0> twkm: here i am
<1> okay.
<0> it seems like there is no docs but only the README file
<1> did you read the fedora documentation?
<0> actually: no, but i have read! i followed www.linuxhomenetworking.com
<1> *shrug*
<0> what ?
<0> twkm: are you still there ?
<1> yes.
<0> i can't find a good doc about my problem
<1> have you read the fedora documentation about sendmail yet?
<0> twkm: where is it ?
<1> why would i know?
<0> i think fedora doc about sendmail are poor
<1> sad. oh well.
<1> the sendmail documentation says one way is to add the domain to /etc/mail/local-host-names.
<0> i have alreayd read that !!
<0> you know, mydomain.dyndns.org is put in it
<0> any idea ?
<0> well,
<0> twkm: are you sleeping ?
<0> is there someone ok for an help ?
<0> who can help ?
<0> which value should take SMART_HOST when you have the internet with a ISP
<0> ?
<2> typically the mail server address recommended by the ISP
<0> is it absolutely obliged ?
<2> nope, depends on the ISP
<0> how can i know that ? by trying ?
<0> it is strange because i can send but not recieve....
<2> SMART_HOST has nothing to do with e-mail reception
<0> oh, so in my case i don't have to comment this line out
<2> DNS, network configuration, firewalls, and sendmail configuraion (listen not to localhost) are all areas that need to be checked
<0> there are a lot of things...
<0> iptables are right: port 25 is open
<2> and the ISP firewalls and so forth
<0> when a email is sent, it is my dynDNS host that stops the mail
<0> there is no reply to RCPT TO command
<2> ever? or a timeout?
<0> the mail delivery system told: relaying denied (in reply to RCPT TO command)
<2> that's not no reply
<2> do you have relay-domains or access map entries to allow relaying for any hostnames under your control?
<0> thrig: excuse me, you mean if there is entries that i can't control ?
<0> i have a access file: see --->>> http://pastebin.com/768674
<0> should i add this line: "mydomain.dyndDNS.org RELAY" in it ?
<2> sure
<0> thrig: ok it's done, but i got the same error return message
<0> what any other file i have to modify
<0> ?
<2> did you rebuild the access map database?
<0> i made a make in /etc/mail directory
<0> with this script #!/bin/bash; cd /etc/mail; make; newaliases; /etc/init.d/sendmail restart
<2> what does the make do?
<0> it normally compiles supporting configuration files in the /etc/mail directory according to the instructions in the file /etc/mail/Makefile
<2> does it rebuild any mapped files?
<0> ...well, i don't really know
<0> how can i know if it does ?
<2> then post the Makefile somewhere, or look at the file modification times of files under /etc/mail (ls -lart)
<0> i think the make command rebuid all configurations files but see: http://pastebin.com/768757
<2> yup. Used a tab between the mydomain and the RELAY in the access map (not a space)?
<0> well, actually there are only tab between the two entries in this file...
<2> does the mail log on the server contain any reject information?
<0> /var/mail/maillog ?
<2> I have no idea where your syslog sends mail logs
<0> /etc/log/maillog !!
<0> it's strange, because, it sounds like there is no log in this file since June 7
<0> and i'm working on it for one day !!! i send you this maillog file
<0> http://pastebin.com/768772
<2> grep mail /etc/syslog.conf will show where a stock syslog daemon sends mail logs
<2> Jun 7 19:26:29 bahia sendmail[13431]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(root): /etc/aliases: line 99: missing colon
<2> looks like something should be fixed there
<2> I see nothing in that log for dyndDNS
<0> this aliases problem has been solved, just commas missing
<0> thrig: i don't understand, it is only a log file, why does it need to have dynDNS in it ?
<0> maybe, i have to replace "bahia.jmc-phy-science.info" by "jmc-phy-science.homelinux.org" everywhere ?
<0> in the sendmail configuration files?
<0> thrig: this is my sendmail.mc file: http://pastebin.com/768808
<0> are you there ?
<3> anyone know were is my mail que or spool for sendmail on redhat?
<4> I cant recieve mail only send out.. this is the error http://pastebin.com/768880
<1> make sure that people can connect to your server.
<1> currently connections timeout.
<4> yes but how
<1> how would i know, it is your system.
<4> I know for sure the one major issue may be port 25 blocked thus need 587
<4> but no one tells me how to change this
<1> your system doesn't respond to randomly selected ports.
<4> twkm, I know port 25 is block so how
<1> your system isn't responding to 110, 2525 or 12543 either.
<1> it does respond to 587, but probably wrongly.
<1> i just sent you a test message via 587.
<1> well, i sent it to root.
<4> I got a message from farrelj@gmail.com zcat of #fedora
<1> you should have got a message from MAILER-DAEMON to root@spydiex.dyndns.org.
<4> says test
<1> indeed.
<1> so, you can see that you already have port 587 configured.
<4> how was it sent? telnet
<1> yes, telnet.
<4> but say someone from else where like gmail yahoo, they cant email
<1> naturally.
<1> mta's transfer using port 25. period.
<1> you'll need to contract with a service provider to relay to you on 587.
<4> so ur saying it wont work to goto 587 unless I have some strange setup
<1> unless everyone sending to you customizes their setup just for you.
<4> I mean the dsl isp, needs to not block 25 for it to workk
