<0> I have a problem where mail can to be delivered locally on the rcpt to: ie. rcpt to:localuser - How can I get it so that it must be have a domain name in there? ie. rcpt to:localuser@domain.com Thanks
<1> hi
<2> bye
<3> yo
<3> i came venturing here in search of help
<3> debian and saenmail, on a webserver, i need to relay mail to a smtp server at godaddy.com
<3> sendmail*
<4> Hi, is the -f option of sendmail same as "Reply-To" field?
<5> no.
<4> What is the difference?
<4> Wont bounce messages come back to adr in "reply-to" field?
<5> no.
<4> where does bounce messages go if no -f option is used?
<5> -f sets the envelope sender which is where bounces are sent, reply-to is a message header which tells mua's where to direct replies.
<4> Ok. So there is prob a default value used then if no -f option is specified?
<5> in general $user@$j
<4> what are $user and $j. Are these env variables?
<5> no.
<4> ok, i see what u mean.
<5> err, oops, that should be $u@$j
<5> (most macros are just one letter)
<4> So, in general it's not really necessary to use the -f option with sendmail?
<5> right.
<4> it's not like message will bounce back and forth anyway, hehe
<4> Thanks, twkm.
<5> sure thing.
<4> Another thing, while i'm at it: what does the return value from sendmail mean?
<4> It seems to be a positive random (?) number, but what does it mean?
<5> uh. from ''man sendmail'' .. "Sendmail returns an exit status describing what it did."
<4> ok, i can check that out later.thanks.
<5> cool.
<6> hi...
<6> i am having problems when i try to send mails this way: from userlinux@hostname to userISP@ISP.com.
<6> if i send them from userISP@ISP.com to user2@ISP2.com there is no problem
<6> this what log file says: http://pastebin.com/729822
<6> any help friends?.
<7> Morning... sendmail related problem - smtp authentication... working on a blackbox system where I dont know exactly how everytthing was installed since the admin kinda.. left... =/ sendmail is failing on all authentication attempts and having trouble tracking it down... anyone mind throwing some ideas my way?
<7> testsaslauthd works.
<7> grepping sendmail -d0.1 reveals sasl installed.. but... I cant seem to find out how it is failing right now.. testsaslauthd works, and my /etc/sasl2/smtpd.conf file has a mech_list that includes quite a few things... DIGEST, CRAM,PLAIN and LOGIN.. when I telnet in to 25 and helo, I only see cram and digest.. when I do the sendmail on localhost I see all 4.
<7> sm-mta[14740]: no secret in database ?
<6> nohelp for me?

<7> sm-mta[15687]: could not find auxprop plugin, was searching for '[all]' <-- I have sendmail to allow login and plain authentication.. why would it try for an auxprop plugin
<7> OK - found out the problem for my little thing... /etc/sasl2/Sendmail.conf didnt.. exist... the guy had it as smtpd.conf
<7> =P So, I have sendmail working with plain and login - but I want to secure those... I ***ume I have to do ssl for that? I mean I can add in cram-md5 and the other one, but that will not work for my outlook users.
<7> OK - starting to work with the StartTLS option so that my plain / login authentication methods arnt.. open to the world... I need to have a cert created for each domain that will be sending mail on my system then? So if a user creates a new domain then a new cert needs to be generated for that? Or can I just use a single one...
<8> usually one picks 'smtp.domain.com' or similar and uses that for all TLS related e-mail
<8> multiple certs would be both expensive and difficult to configure on a single system
<7> Right now we have about 10 domains on the system.. each with things like mail.domain.com where domain is varaible of those 10
<7> so we would need to set up one single mail.USETHISEMAILDOMAINPLEASE.com one?
<7> and the cert for that?
<7> ((We were creating our own certs anyways))
<8> that, or run 10 sendmail instances, each with the different cert/IP to listen on
<7> Starting to hate outlook.. cant use cram-md5 since outlook doesnt support it, have to enable plain and login.. and only way to secure that on outlook is by having a cert =P
<8> yeah, I used login/plain over TLS to support Outlook
<7> Or am I incorrect.. is there some way to keep it secure for my outlook users without having a cert for each domain?
<8> plus Kerberos support for the really cool mail clients
<8> I have not looked at supporting non-login/plain authentication methods from Outlook
<7> Validate my ***umptions? 1) Outlook is only login/plain... 2) Login/plain can only be secured via certs 3) Certs are on a per domain basis... 4) A) Either I create a cert for each and every domain whenever a new domain is made or B) we have one mail server (mail.SuperDomain.com) that everyone talks to.
<7> Addendum to 4)B) <-- probably best to BUY that cert so that users are not given an bad-cert warning every time they check?
<8> 4 A missed the "create a new cert and a new IP and a new Sendmail and possibly a new POP/IMAP instance"
<7> OK. So 4A is out since there is no way I am giving up some of my prime ip's for that crap. 4B is the only way to make it secure. Now I just need to decide if its even worth it. heh...
<7> Alias Information: Say I have a user m.blah.com (his actual name) - who wants a COPY of all mail he receives to be forwarded to gmail in addition to receiving it normally... I have in the alias file m.blah.com: mMmM@gmail.com and that forwards it.. but.. still need to leave a copy in the file.
<7> I dont want to put my server into a loop by sticking m.blah.com mMmM@gmail.com, m.blah.com =)
<7> How to list a 'end point' alias that is not redirected any further?
<7> or am I just being paranoid about the recursive possibility and I should just put: m.blah.com: m.blah.com, mMmM@gmail.com
<7> or m.blah.com: mMmM@gmail.com, \m.blah.com
