<0> what could i look at to troubleshoot why sendmail works sending to external email hosts, but doesnt work for internal hosts ?
<1> the log file.
<0> does it just log to messages?
<1> good question. sendmail logs via syslog, so look at its configuration.
<0> found it
<0> thanks
<0> you talk here, but i dont think ive ever heard a peep out of you in cisco. :)
<1> i talk in cisco too. but mostly its boring so i ignore it.
<0> heh
<2> could someone tell if these 2 lines of sendmail logs mean that it recd. the mail properly and sent it: http://pastebin.com/569251
<3> the foreign MTA took it
<2> the message recd. OK is from the foreign mta recv it ok right
<2> sendmail telling me...



<2> ok, great
<2> Zerberus: and does the second line mean that it was done in 1 second and on the first try
<3> yes
<2> thank you Zerberus
<4> I'm trying to solve the old 'mail loops back to me ' problem. I fixed it before, but it's driving me crazy this time. Anyone interested?
<3> that is a FAQ
<3> www.sendmail.org/faq
<4> Read the FAQ, and have the book, and still having problems.
<1> what domain?
<4> compuclaim.com is the domain.
<1> is the domain in your w or VirtHost cl***?
<4> It's in w
<4> I have a small domain with 5 ip's I've defined the mx as mail with an A record in bind, I have smarthost defined and the -d0.4 shows correct ***ignmenst to w j m and k - version is 8.13.4
<1> if compuclaim.com is in cl*** w (not macro w) there should be no problem.
<4> Other cnames for the box is defined in local-host-names file. www,ftp,ns
<1> echo '$=w' | sendmail -bt
<4> It shows mail mail.compuclaim.com www ftp ns localhost and ip#
<1> what about compuclaim.com?
<1> that's the target fqdn that is giving problems, right?
<4> yes, i just didn't see it.
<4> I'm getting the local configuration error, and another error that says Can't send mail: sendmail process failed with error code 67
<2> hi, i googled for this maillog error and it came up empty, can someone shed some light on this: http://pastebin.com/569710
<1> there is no secret for the supplied user in the sasldb.
<2> erm, thats not possible, i only get that error when i send a mail from my cell phone, the same account using a mail client works
<1> *shrug*
<2> odd
<2> i get this:root@maya:/home/s# /usr/sbin/sasldblistusers2
<2> listusers failed
<1> seems like there is nothing in the sasldb. that would confirm the error message.
<1> probably your mail client cannot use cram-md5 or is configured to use something else, specifically.
<2> that could be it, do i have to manually add users to the sasldb
<1> how would i know?
<1> it's your system.
<1> when you add users to the system does it add anything to the sasldb?
<1> (it would appear it does not)
<1> if it is supposed to, well, it isn't.
<2> right
<2> that makes sense
<1> at a guess you don't really want the sasldb stuff, so you should remove the two md5 mechanisms from your auth mechanisms list.
<2> ok, i only enabled sasl because i wanted tls
<2> im not very clear on all this, just learning, but as i understand, sasl does a pwcheck with /etc/p***wd or whatever its configured with, and im guessing on my slackware box, i dont need to add manually add users, and im getting this error only when i send from my phone, for both my imaps and pop3s boxes
<5> anyone around
<6> hy, our admin put us up a mail server, and we want to send mail From one adress and a return-path to be an another address
<6> we are sending with smtp from a perl script
<6> when I set the return-path servers seems to override it...
<1> ''man sendmail''
<1> most likely you want -f
<6> i am sending with smtp



<1> *shrug*
<1> nothing much needed there.
<6> i would like to set this in out headers
<6> s/out/our
<1> yure: then set it.
<6> but sendmail overrides it :)
<1> better inspect your configuration.
<6> where is it in config file? i haven't worked with sendmail
<6> and our admin isn't currently available
<1> what good would it do to tell you where, since you won't have any idea how to change it nor the consequences?
<1> anyway, /etc/mail/sendmail.mc is the normal configuration file.
<6> ok, another question
<6> if we don't have domain ***ociated with this server
<6> will it present trouble to bounce mail to sth@111.111.111.111
<1> yes, since that isn't a valid email address.
<6> i thought so
<1> how is it your machine does not have an fqdn?
<6> don't ask :)
<6> we have a large system for sending out newsletters
<6> we'll add this server to dns
<1> a large system should have a sensible return-path to handle undeliverable mail.
<6> but the dns are under control of another entity, so it get's complicated
<1> of course spammers never care, so i think i'm talking to a spammer.
<6> actually no, but nevermind
<6> actually these aren't even newsletters
<6> long story
<6> and this server is the smallest part of it
<6> we'll give a domain to the return path
<6> the thing is we are sending mail from several different domains which normally use other mail servers
<6> and this one is used only for sending out this mail
<1> don't bother /msg'ing me, i'm not interested.
<7> hi all
<7> i get the following error when i run m4 command
<7> m4: Cannot open /usr/share/sendmail-cf/feature/relays.ordb.org.m4: No such file or directory
<7> how/where do i get this m4 file from ?
<8> Maybe/probably from the source package.
<7> i will check that
<7> i just checked in the source, it does not seem to be part of it
<3> there is no such feature
<3> FEATURE(`enhdnsbl',`relays.ordb.org',`"Message blocked see: http://www.ordb.org/lookup/?host="$&{client_addr}',`t')dnl
<7> thanks, let me check with this
<3> the feature is enhdnsbl.m4 - so you probably made mistakes with quotation
<7> yes
<7> i have omitted to put `enhdnsbl' before `relays.ordb.org'
<7> thanks a lot
<9> Once I've read my mail in a terminal, how can I collect it via Dovecot? It seems like mail dissapears into my /home/username/mbox file and I can't retrieve it anymore
<3> configure dovecot where to find the mbox file(s)
<3> offtopic question btw.
<9> Sorry, I only just realised I wasn't in the Dovecot channel
<2> I need to allow relaying for a single email address, even if the ip doesnt resolve. sendmail wont let me do this unless i disable ip-hostname resolve filtering. what solution would anyone recommend?
<3> use smtp auth
<10> hi, i've got sendmail 8.13.4 up and running, it is using maildir delivery, how do i switch to mbox?
<3> reconfigure the LDA
<3> sendmail does not store in maildir
<10> Zerberus: oh ok, will conf procmail then
<10> Zerberus: i've got FEATURE(`local_lmtp',`/usr/sbin/mail.local')
<10> and FEATURE(`local_procmail'), in sendmail.mc, should i just comment procmail to get it working?
<3> there can be just 1 LDA
