Hello,
 
I am running my own E-mail server on the Rogers network - with dynamic
DNS. The Sendmail can be configured to use the rogers SMTP as a relay
server with authentication. You need to change a few things on the
sendmail.mc and recompile it but it can be done.
 
the first thing that needs to be configured is:
 
"Smart" relay host to be SMTP.broadband.rogers.com
 
you are better of changing the sendmail.mc file and then compiling the
sendmail.cf from there. Also make sure that the daemon is set to listen
on port 587 as well, because rogers changed the smtp to port 587.
 
in the /etc/mail/auth there has to be a file called "client-info" that
will have to contain the authentication information for the rogers
account.
 
Basically that is it. Please search the internet, there is lots of
documentation on how to modify these files, and how to compile them in
the system once the modification is done.
 
I have inside my network my main E-mail server running Scalix - (which
by the way is a pretty nice E-mail solution - even offers an outlook
connector) which is set to communicate the way described above with the
rogers smtp. My trixbox server is set to send messages through my Scalix
server. My mother in Hungary has an extension to my trixbox server, she
has an E-mail address local to them, and she always receives the
voicemail messages I leave her in E-mail.
 
So give it a try, I know sendmail is a pain, but once it is done
properly it works well.
 
Thanks,
Zoltan.

Subject: [on-asterisk] Sending voicemail notifications thru rogers



I am using trixbox and need to send my vmail notifications thru email. I
was on primus dsl and everything worked fine. I think that rogers
requires you to use their smtp server and it requires authentication.
Any ideas?
