Oh, I don't know about that... http://go.sciflicks.com/artists/p/persis_khambatta_star_trek_the_motion_picture.jpg :) > I figured out that the SMTPDirect thing was going straight out a port > rather than piping to exim.

Still, if you're running your Exim as a daemon, it should be possible to configure it to accept only localhost port 25 connections. That's what I'd recommend anyway. > So, in my mm_cfg.py I put: > > DELIVERY_MODULE = 'Sendmail' > > but it didn't fix it.

They way you're doing it is the only way, and it ought to work, but you should be aware of the security issues. This delivery module goes through the shell so you have quoting issues and the like to worry about. There have been some ideas to fix this. What I'd like to see is Sendmail.py fixed to not use the shell, and for smtplib.py to be able to talk SMTP over stdin/stdout. But I have no time to work on these things. -Barry ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ This message was sent to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe or change your options at http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
