I'm having an issue when retreiving mail with fetchmail. It fails at |
2 |
the handoff to local sendmail. |
3 |
|
4 |
It happens with the default sendmail config sendmail.mc that is |
5 |
shipped with sendmail when emerged. |
6 |
|
7 |
It is a very abbreviated config that is desinged only for local mail I |
8 |
think. |

MAILER(local)dnl |

MAILER(smtp)dnl |
21 |
|
22 |
And since this is a sort of one off situation where I only want to |
23 |
receive mail on this host temporarily while repairing another host |
24 |
where mail is normally retrieved. |
25 |
|
26 |
I don't care at all about sending out mail... only receiving. |
27 |
|
28 |
I'm pretty sure this line: |
29 |
|
30 |
FEATURE(`local_lmtp',`/usr/sbin/mail.local')dnl |
31 |
|
32 |
Is the culprit but wondered if anyone here can offer a bit of |
33 |
sendmail.mc config that will allow this host to receive mail from my |
34 |
pop servers thru fetchmail. |
35 |
|
36 |
Before folks start with the `Egad what are you doing with sendmail |
37 |
when "your favorite MTA" is so much better..... |
38 |
|
39 |
Really not helpful in this case... I just need the most minimal |
40 |
correction to sendmail.mc that will allow mail to be retreived. |
41 |
|
42 |
Sorry I don't have the actual output from fetchmail on hand ... until |
43 |
I can get chrooted into that host currently being worked on with |
44 |
systemrescueCD. |
45 |
|
46 |
Any suggestions for lines to add to sendmail.mc? And I assume |
47 |
removing the quoted line is necessary as well. |
