I've always used postifx but I want to try sendmail this time. |
| 2 |
And I have a hard time finding gentoo howto. |
| 3 |
I runonto some instruction in: |
| 4 |
http://www.quickfixlinux.com/linux/how-to-configure-sendmail-in-linux/ |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
But don't have much lack. |
| 7 |
Original config file after emerge looks like: |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
cat /etc/mail/sendmail.mc |
| 10 |
divert(-1) |
| 11 |
divert(0)dnl |
| 12 |
include(`/usr/share/sendmail-cf/m4/cf.m4')dnl |
| 13 |
VERSIONID(`$Id$')dnl |
| 14 |
OSTYPE(linux)dnl |
| 15 |
DOMAIN(generic)dnl |
| 16 |
FEATURE(`smrsh',`/usr/sbin/smrsh')dnl |
| 17 |
FEATURE(`local_lmtp',`/usr/sbin/mail.local')dnl |
| 18 |
FEATURE(`local_procmail')dnl |
| 19 |
MAILER(local)dnl |
| 20 |
MAILER(smtp)dnl |
| 21 |
MAILER(procmail)dnl |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
I've added a line no.7 |
| 24 |
define(`SMART_HOST’,`mail.shaw.ca’)dnl |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
but I get an error running: |
| 27 |
m4 /etc/mail/sendmail.mc > /etc/mail/sendmail.cf |
| 28 |
m4:/etc/mail/sendmail.mc:7: ERROR: end of file in string |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
I forgot to mention that I need to input a password to connect to |
| 31 |
provider mail-server when sending a mail. |
