I've finally managed
to configure stuff correctly so that some stuff works:
1. Courier-MTA seems
to accept connections from the outside and delivers mail correctly to my local
(courier) account. So, I can have my (remote) mail client use port 25 on my
courier box directly, or, for instance, send the email from my work
(non-courier) account and it, in turn, seems to be able to connect to my courier
server and deliver the mail.
2. I can connect
remotely using IMAP and retrieve my mail ok.
However, some stuff
does not work:
1. I cannot seem to
get local delivery to work at all. I tried the simple '$ echo "To: test" |
sendmail' (and yes, I do have a test account and I have set up my maildirs) and
sendmail says: "no recipients supplied. No mail will be sent". I can repeat this
error using any local mail account. I've tried "To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]" as well,
but sendmail still says I have not supplied any recipients.
2. I tried using a
different form, like this:
$ sendmail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject:
test
Test
and I get back a
syntax error.
I also tried using
KDE's mail client on the courier box to send using both local (sendmail) mode
and remote (smtp) mode. Neither worked.
Can anyone give me
any insight? In case it helps, I also cannot log into any accounts at all using
sqWebMail - I've never gotten past the login screen, in
fact...
Thanks,
Eric
