I'm including this on the list since I think there will be others who |
| 16 |
may find it useful. |
| 17 |
Mine is setup like this: |
| 18 |
(I'm going to assume you know to use m4 to compile sendmail.cf) |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
1) In sendmail.mc |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
( Some of this may not be necessary... I've placed asterisks around |
| 23 |
those I think are critical ) |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
(I masquerade as the host that supplies my email pop service |
| 26 |
(newsguy), I don't use comcast email much. you may be able to ignore |
| 27 |
masquerading) |

2) using authinfo is somewhat explained in the README at |
| 60 |
/usr/share/sendmail-cf/ |
| 61 |
|
| 62 |
Mine looks like this [with some things disguised with MYUSER, MYPASSWD] |
| 63 |
(Should be all on one line... in case mail formatting breaks the line) |
| 64 |
|
| 65 |
cat /etc/mail/authinfo |
| 66 |
# [HP 02/04/06 23:14 NOTE make sure to makemap hash authinfo < authinfo] |
| 67 |
AuthInfo:smtp.comcast.net "U:MYUSER" "I:MYUSER@×××××××.net" "P:MYPASSWD" "M: LOGIN PLAIN" |
| 68 |
# end authinfo |
| 69 |
|
| 70 |
Heed the comment about makemap or authinfo won't work. |
| 71 |
|
| 72 |
I'm not sure this is necessary anymore but you should probably restart |
| 73 |
sendmail after using makemap.. and definitely restart anytime you |
| 74 |
recompile sendmail.cf |
| 75 |
|
| 76 |
With those asterisked things in place my mail works fine. |
| 77 |
|
| 78 |
I can relay mail from any of my home machines thru my gentoo host with |
| 79 |
the sendmail.mc shown as well. So the other machines are pointed as |
| 80 |
my gentoo box as smart host. |
