Re: MTA for home network
Hi, On Fri, 18 Jan 2002 [EMAIL PROTECTED] spewed into the ether: I've just finished setting up my a server for my home network. Fetchmail downloads all messages from pop3 server of my ISP - postfix sends received data to maildrop - finally messages got to my courier IMAP server. That's my server mail delivery scheme. On my workstation I recompiled mutt with imapssl support. Reading mail is fine, but when I want to send a message mutt shows me error 127 - from my previous experience it means that sendmail binary is not found (and that's absolutely correct, it's not installed :) ) I need your advice: what MTA shall I install for that easy task of sending outgoing mail to postfix running on my local server? Sure thing, I don't want any sendmail/qmail/postfix for that, but I've seen several minimalistic servers on freshmeat - perhaps someone could gimme a piece of advice on that issue? I've recently hacked up a bunch of python scripts which I use to queue all out-going mails and send them through my ISP's smart-host. If you are interested, let me know, and I'll put it up somewhere for you. This, of course, works for my single-user home machine connecting to the net through a dial-up link. pv. -- Prahlad Vaidyanathan [EMAIL PROTECTED] I went to the museum where they had all the heads and arms from the statues that are in all the other museums. -- Steven Wright msg23311/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

Re: [OT] MTA for home network
If you are familiar with postfix anyway, you could just as well install a postfix with minimal configuration on your working machine. Typically, this /etc/postfix/main.cf should be sufficient: myhostname = slave.host.name myorigin = what.ever.applies mydestination = relayhost = your.relay.host default_transport=smtp That's all. It may quite well be more difficult to properly configure some minimalistic mailer. -- Thomas Roessler[EMAIL PROTECTED] On 2002-01-18 00:47:29 +0300, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Date: Fri, 18 Jan 2002 00:47:29 +0300 To: mutt [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [OT] MTA for home network Mail-Followup-To: mutt [EMAIL PROTECTED] User-Agent: Mutt/1.3.25i Organization: MobiStyle X-Mailer: Mutt 1.3.25i (2002-01-01) From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I've just finished setting up my a server for my home network.
