[SunHELP] Sending Mail without sendmailD


Thu May 8 09:34:30 CDT 2003


Oops... did I mention that I did not want to run the sendmail daemon.  I
want my machine to just send out mail locally, not as a relay.  On Solaris
8, I was able to send out email from the machine using the mail command.  On
Solaris 9, it does not do this anymore.  

BTW on Solaris 8 S88sendmail is not running, on Solaris 9 I do the same
thing.  Solaris 8 can send out mail to our smtp server, on Solaris 9 I can
not, but there is not any indication from what I can tell.

Hmmmmmh, you did stop/start the sendmail daemon of course! And you can ping
your SMTP server from this particular host?

Wonder why U're having problems.

You could try the following links if you've got time and you haven't
already:

Hi Mark

I managed to get it to work by just modifying the following line:


	# "Smart" relay host (may be null)
	DShostname.com

Hope it works for you too!

Greetings all Sun Guru's.

 

I was wondering if there was anyone out there in sunland, that was sending
mail from their Solaris 9 OS, without running the sendmail daemon.  I have
searched google, and I have checked my sendmail.cf file, and it still does
not work.  I have Solaris 8 on a another machine, and the sendmail.cf files
look the same.  

 

Btw, I have also modified subsidiary.cf to reflect the same values as
sendmail.cf.  Can someone help me?

 

 

Thanks,

Mark
