[MAILER-DAEMON@magnesium.net: failure notice]
This is one for the mail (or config) gurus. It's one of several things left. Can anybody clue me in on howto configure mySMTP authentication? What I've done--uncommnting the ^auth line in /etc/inetd.conf and restarting inetd--doesn't do the job. Anybody? tia, guys, gary PS: I use sendmail at thought.org... if that makes any difference. - Forwarded message from [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Date: 11 Dec 2002 17:21:16 - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: failure notice Hi.

Can anybody clue me in on howto configure mySMTP authentication? The error is on speakeasy's end. You have the following servers listed as mail exchangers for thought.org: $ host -t mx thought.org thought.org mail is handled by 10 ns1.thought.org. thought.org mail is handled by 10 mail.speakeasy.net. thought.org mail is handled by 2 relay1.exodus.net. Make sure that Speakeasy and Exodus know they they should be backup MXes, or else they will bounce your messages. Hm. Well, relay1.exodus.net is probably bogus. I asked Speakeasy (my ISP) and never got a direct answer... Here on Magesium.net, I do have a clear okay on using them as an MX site. The thing is that when I used mail.magnesium.net, I got the same 553 errror. Also, from http://www.dnsreport.com/tools/dnsreport.ch?domain=thought.org I got a FAIL on the postmaster auth entry. I did check out speakeasy.net's web site on this; it mumbled one like about using sendmail's SASL. --Sorry, but this is seriously out f my league!! Anybody know what 'SASL' is? (I just tweaked my /etc/mail/sendmail.cf file. It says:: Warning: Option: DefaultAuthInfo requires SASL support (-DSASL) Warning: Option: AuthOptions requires SASL support (-DSASL) ) gary -- Gary Kline Seattle FBSD Users' Group (seafug) | [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thought Unlimited Org | [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.magnesium.net/~kline To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

Your problem is with incoming mail, and requiring anyone that wants to send you mail to use SASL is ridiculous. Pester Speakeasy and make sure they know you're talking about MXes for incoming mail. Large ISPs usually have different machines dedicated to incoming vs outgoing mail. I googled around and added the SASL lines to my ns1*.mc file. But sendmail gives me warnings. I understand Speakeasy's issues and policy. Agree that for me, yes, this is ridiculous. I'm running FBSD-4.3 on my DNS server; 4.7 on tao.thought.org; before I start bugging Seakeasy, it might be easier to figure out where the SASL stuff is.
