I've gotten a bit further this weekend but I'm not 'there' yet. I could
sucessfully send a e-mail by using 'mail' as normal user at my server.
Allthough when I tried to send an e-mail from my laptop with my server
as smtp server it kept prompting for my password and this is what was
displayed in /var/log/maillog :
Aug 5 11:40:36 FStaals sm-mta[101]: k759eEva000101: Riza.FStaals.LAN
[192.168.2.5] did not issue MAIL/EXPN/VRFY/ETRN during connection to IPv4
When I googled if I could find a solution I came to this page :
http://www.issociate.de/board/post/246978/did_not_issue_MAIL/EXPN/VRFY/ETRN_during_connection_to_MTA.html
The solution oppered there was to add ' mech_list: login plain' to
/usr/local/lib/sasl2/Sendmail.conf . So I did and it kind of worked,
allthough now I can only send e-mail to other users at my server ( for
example root ), when I try to mail to an external adress my log 'says'
my message is rejected:
Aug 5 13:10:30 FStaals sm-mta[1495]: k75BATko001495:

92.168.2.5]
I'm not sure what I have to do to get working correctly and I was hoping
someone could give me some hints what I'm doing wrong. Also I'm not sure
if it's a good idea to add the 'mech_list: login plain' to sasl2's
Sendmail.conf ? Last but not least : I want sendmail to use SSL and
listen to port 465. sockstat shows It isn't listening to that port, but
I think it should, does anyone happen to know what it is I'm doing wrong
at that point:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] sockstat -4 | grep sendmail
root sendmail 1410 3 tcp4 *:25 *:*
root sendmail 1410 5 tcp4 *:587 *:*
[EMAIL PROTECTED] cat /etc/mail/FStaals.net.cf | grep smtps
O DaemonPortOptions=Port=smtps, Name=TLSMTA, M=s
Many thanks,
Telnet to port 25 on the mail server. Once connected, issue an EHLO
command and look for the AUTH line - for example:
# telnet localhost 25
Trying ::1...
Connected to localhost.servername.com.
Escape character is '^]'.

If you don't see PLAIN LOGIN, you have a problem in how Sendmail was
compiled. As far as getting SSL up and running, I had better luck using
stunnel instead of compiling SSL into each service. With one
certificate to manage, I now have SSL encryption on IMAP, POP3, SMTP &
HTTP. Of course the sites that are being protected are for internal use
at our company, so no one complains that we're using a self-signed
certificate and the names don't match, YMMV.
If Sendmail does return the right AUTH parameters, and you're still
having issues, test saslauthd. Make sure you have the following in
Sendmail.conf:
pwcheck_method: saslauthd
I have not needed to add "'mech_list: login plain'" to Sendmail.conf to
get this to work.
Make sure saslauthd is running. If not then:
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/./saslauthd start
test the authentication:
# /usr/local/sbin/testsaslauthd -u username -p password
0: OK "Success."
If you get an error with saslauthd at this point, the problem is there.
If this works OK, but you're not getting the right AUTH response
during your telnet connection, your problem is probably how Sendmail was
compiled.
HTH.
If all seems to be in order, and you're still having issues, what other
ports do you have on the machine? I've run into problems the same as
yours with both Postfix and Sendmail after installing quite a few other
ports. During my last rebuild, I installed Postfix and sasl2 out of the
gate, and have had no issues. I think in my case, something else I
installed before the MTA & SASL2 screwed something up, but I could not
determine where the fault was and ended up reinstalling.
Best regards,
Greg Groth
