Hi all,
well I just wanted to configure sendmail...but unfortunetly it's not that easy.
What I want is, that sendmail will deliver local mail immediatly and masqurade
for outgoing mail. I have a dial-up account. Then it should remap local
adressas to other adresses known in the internet.
local1 > [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I'm somehow disappointed, because all worked time ago with an older version of
sendmail, but now I have sendmail-8.9.3-9mdk, and of course the old
configuration .mc file does not work with this version. Sendmail simply does
not do anything.
So I tried to use linuxconf, and somehow succeeded, but it does not work as it
should. I do not know where to enter the localhost and where to enter the
provider's server to masquarade as. As I said it works somehow for now, but the
problem is that I have to run sendmail -q when connected. That's allright, but
when fetchmail receives some mail and I disconnect sendmail does not do
anything with the received mails, they stay in /var/spool/mqueue untill I run
sendmail -q again, so sendmail moves the mail to the /var/spool/mail/user.
I remember that this worked automatically before. Can someone help?
BTW before I could use a genericstable, but as I said sendmail ignores all this.
TIA
Jacek
