Hi, Related to Michael's report, we have bumped the SVN version on the build engine to "astlinux-1.0-5644" with the standard images built:
http://build.astlinux.org/ The current pre-1.0.5 changes are documented here: http://astlinux.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/astlinux/branches/1.0/docs/ChangeLog.txt Per Michael's suggestion, there is a new variable SMTP_HOST_DOMAIN (define via user.conf) that will solve his msmtp issue... -- ## SMTP_HOST_DOMAIN ## Not required in most cases, the default is to use 'localhost'. ## Try changeing the default if mails get rejected due to anti-SPAM measures. ## Defines the hostname used by the SMTP EHLO (or LMTP LHLO) command. #SMTP_HOST_DOMAIN="pbx.astlinux.org" -- If this issue becomes more widespread, when SMTP_HOST_DOMAIN is undefined we could automatically set it with a default, such as "$SMTP_DOMAIN" or "$HOSTNAME.$DOMAIN", etc. but msmtp's default of "localhost" has been working for most for a long time. Until then, this new SMTP_HOST_DOMAIN variable will give users all the flexibility to make it work. Lonnie PS: Michael, make sure you "rm /oldroot/mnt/asturw/etc/init.d/msmtp" to undo your changes.
