Hi all, I am trying to use busybox sendmail to send emails periodically from Linux running on a development board to a remote PC (which is running conventional sendmail) in the same network. The version of busybox that is being used is 1.14.3. The command which was tried out to do this is as follows.
echo 'my message' | sendmail -S abcserver -f sen...@abcserver recei...@abcserver The mail reaches abcserver, but does not get delivered. /var/log/maillog in abcserver says that the input channel to MTA has been lost. I tried searching in the net, but could not find the actual reason for this. Many of the posts related to such observations say that this is because the client is not closing the connection properly. Using utilities like mailx, I am able to send mails from other machines in the network to abcserver. Also, I'm able to send mails if I do telnet abcserver 25. This doesn't even require authentication with username and password. It would be great if someone could guide me on the following. 1. Isn't it possible to use busybox sendmail for the above mentioned requirement? 2. If yes, what kind of modification should I make in the command? Thanks, -Sujith _______________________________________________ busybox mailing list [email protected] http://lists.busybox.net/mailman/listinfo/busybox
