<0> i am trying to send 100.000 emails with attachments to my mailbox to test the AV system. but the attachments are showing up on the body of the message instead of as attachments... i am doing uuencode blah.zip blah.zip |mail test@xxx.com ... i have googled for this and many pages show this exact syntax... what could be wrong?
<1> uuencode != MIME
<1> mutt -a filename ... will use MIME, as can other tools
<2> anyone know if Mirapoint uses sendmail?
<1> certainly, when sending to sites that run it. Otherwise, no idea
<2> thrig> was that reply meant for me?
<1> sure, why not
<2> hmmm
<1> why would what Mirapoint does internally matter?
<2> well.. it matters what they use on the inside
<2> for example, if some vulnerability comes out about say sendmail.. I'd like to know if the product is going to be affected
<2> if it's not sendmail based, I wouldn't care less
<2> makes sense?
<2> since it's an appliance.. if you know what they are running on the inside, you can figure out if their marketing material is just bogus or if it's real
<1> you could a) use a flaw detection tool of some sort or b) wait for vendor updates
<2> I'm trying to figure out the benefits of going through the pain of going through a vendor. Typically, they will take longer to address holes.
<1> well, yes, if they're good, they have regression tests to run through
<2> right
<1> or they could be lazy slackers
<2> exactly
<2> so I'm guessing you don't know
<1> nope, don't use Mirapoint
<2> alright.. no worries
<3> how can i ocnfigure a virtualusertable to send a copy of messageg to another account ??
<3> how can i configure sendmail to deliver copy of messages from one account to another ??
<4> hello guys, i'm facing a problem with sendmail please help me and see http://pastebin.com/732700
<4> is there someone to hear me..... please
<4> hello
<5> HEllo ihave a gmail account i want to know how to configure sendmail to send email using my gmail account ? can anyone help?
<6> configure smtp auth and tls, then either smart host or mailertable.
<5> twkm: that's gr8 :) , but i can't recognize what's tls nor mailertable, is there a guide or you can point me to useful simple man
<6> cf/README covers all that, though doc/op/op.* is useful too.
<5> twkm: wehre can i find this cf/README and doc/op/op.*
<6> in the source distribution. normally a vendor would install them as well, though just where i cannot say since i've no idea which vendor you used.
<5> twkm: what do u mean which vendor
<5> i'm using debian sarge
<6> then your vendor is debian.
<5> twkm: so what do u mean by source distro
<5> you mean i have to man sendmail ?
<6> sigh.
<6> here, i'll look in the debian package web site for you.
<6> install sendmail-doc then you will find it in /usr/share/doc/sendmail-doc named cf.README.gz.
<5> thx i have to extract this *.gz or man it
<6> less seems sufficient.
<6> ''less /usr/share/doc/sendmail-doc/cf.README.gz''
<5> used less , the *.gz is binary file
<6> then feel free to ungzip it.
<5> using tar -xvzf ?
<6> no, using ungzip.
<6> (sheesh)
<6> or gzip -d if you don't have the ungzip link.
<5> then what to do to open this readme , less /usr/share/doc/sendmail-doc/cf.README ?
<5> ok now which parts i have to be concerned with ?
<6> mailertable, smart host, smtp auth, and tls.
<6> you choose between smart host and mailertable based on whether you want all outgoing mail to go via gmail (smart host) or just some of it (certain domains via gmail, or all except certain domains via gmail).
<5> can this too be a good reference for using sendmail as mail server , i mean to configure it with my email@myemailhots.com
<6> yes, the cf/README file is intended to discuss configuring sendmail.
<6> doc/op/op.* discusses overall installation and operation, so it too touches on configuration issues.
<5> and also this /op/op* is inside this path /usr/share/doc/sendmail-doc/ ?
<6> probably. should i look for you again?
<5> no it's ok i'll check and see
<5> thanks ,
<6> /usr/share/doc/sendmail-doc/op/op.* should exist.
<5> thx
<6> sure thing.
<7> In my domain configure panel, i have added mx host mx77.divineintervention.no with subdomain mail.divineintervention.no then i forwarded mx77.divineintervention.no to my servers ip. In sendmail config i have done this, dn1 define('SMART_HOST' , 'mail.divineintervention.no') Im not sure if this is correct, but when i try to send mail to my user jonn3@divineintervention.no i get a mail back with relaying not allowed. also in /etc/mail/access i
<7> I am also wondering if setting up MX hosts is really nececery when hosting a mail server?
<6> divineintervention.no has no mx record.
<6> smart host is for outgoing mail, not incoming.
<8> twkm, ok ill try to send a mail from my server, i think maybe mx records might not have been added yet, they should be up soon though..
<8> ok, i can send mail, ill have a look at the sendmail config file again, thanx
<6> why you would add an mx of mx77.divineintervention.no to mail.divineintervention.no i have no idea, as that is only meaningful for mail sent to user@mail.divineintervention.no.
<8> twkm, should the incoming mail configuration also be in the mc file? or is this done somewhere else?
<8> twkm, im a noob:(
<6> *shrug*
<8> twkm, that is, regarding mail i am...
<6> dns too.
<8> twkm, probably
<6> so, what is the name of your system? for which domains should it handle mail?
<8> twkm, slackserver.divineintervention, it should handle mail for divineintervention.no
<6> so, divineintervention.no should have an mx pointing to slackserver.divineintervention.no.
<6> the in the sendmail configuration you should add divineintervention.no to your local-host-names.
<8> twkm, ahh, i c
<6> then mail to account@divineintervention.no will be delivered to account, probably in /var/mail/account or /var/spool/mail/account.
<8> twkm, that should be up and running, i had mail delivered to my server before using a dyndns trough another mx host
<8> twkm, ill try that, thanx for helping a noob:)
<6> sure thing.
<8> would i need this, dnl define(`SMART_HOST',`divineintervention.no') if im not going to send the mail trough an external mail server?
<6> uh.
<6> smart host is for outgoing mail. is divineintervention.no running an mta that will relay for you?
<6> hint: slackserver.divineintervention.no *is* already that mta, i doubt you want a loop.
<8> twkm, thank you for your help, everything is working now :-)
<6> cool.
<9> When I launch a queue running daemon (sendmail -q10m), does that daemon spawn a child every 10 minutes to process the queue?
<3> i have a lot of amavis-milter-234723482 directories ( amavis tem dirs ) is there a way to pull messages from there and send them ?
<3> or maybe they cannot be saved and all what left is to delete them ?
<1> sonasks: I have no idea whether amavis saves things in a sendmail compatible format
<9> thrig: Are you familiar with how sendmail processes a queue?
<1> not really, why?
