[masq] Sendmail, Hylafax and a MASQ box

[Mark Pratt]

I have my MASQ box working with diald and a very basic rule set (thanks
David!) but thats not the end of the story.

As the MASQ box is also my mail and fax server, things have started to get
a little complex. To stop Sendmail from dialing out every time I send an
e-mail to the server, Sendmail is configured as DeliveryMode = defered.
This basically accepts the mail and does nothing until the queue is run
(from IP-UP). Any other setting and Sendmail tries to either deliver or
lookup the recipient. And here's the but, any faxes I send also stay in the
queue with the e-mail (Only one modem and phone line).

The only way I can think of setting the system up is to run 2 machines with
sendmail. One being an "internal" server which sifts internal mail and
faxes from external mail. The external mail is then queued on the MASQ
machine to await IP-UP .... or does anyone know different?

This does have it's advantages though, as it would take Samba, Hylafax,
Apache Bind and others off of the MASQed machine.

If my ISP gives me a valid IP address and a domain name
([EMAIL PROTECTED]), can mail be collected via SMTP from the "internal"
mail server and delivered directly to a user (user@mylan maps directly to
user@localhost)without too much bother? (Thats what I am aiming for)
