Either of those should do it.

Look at the output of

  ldd /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail

If there's no mention of sasl2 there, then your modifications to the
build process would seem to have failed.

Otherwise, it's a configuration problem and you need to double check
/etc/mail/$(hostname).mc and your client auth data.

Cheers,

A command like this one can be used to generate the hashed file

 I do not have a certificate from the isp.
 
 My tought was more in line of MY sendmail is sending
 starttls first thing before auth login.

Actually, this makes sense. It seems appropriate to establish an 
encrypted connection before sending the username and password. 
A parallel would be SSH.

At the same time the use of SSL/TLS makes it harder to debug what's 
going on.

 Then postfix gets confused.

It sounds strange, but there's a slight chance something is odd at the 
ISP's end.

 Possible scenario?

I don't have any more input at the moment. The next step would be to 
establish a dialog with your ISP and persua^Wask them to investigate 
the matter further.

  /etc/ssl/certs would be a

Using sendmail as a client with auth

2012-02-13 Thread Bernt Hansson

Hello list!

Is this is OT then i'm sorry.

Trying to get sendmail act as a mua, following this tutorial

http://www.sendmail.org/~ca/email/auth.html

Scroll down a bit to Using send

Is it really necessary to install cycrus-sasl2?

How do one make sendmail to pick sasl2 up when building sendmail.
Is there a make.conf line I must add? When telnetting auth works
but using telnet to send mail has a very low WAF.

I've installed cyrus-sasl2 but then what.

Yes -- you do need cyrus-sasl2 for this purpose.

To build sendmail with SASL, either use the ports version in
mail/sendmail, where you can select SASL as one of the options,
or add:

   SENDMAIL_CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include -DSASL=2
   SENDMAIL_LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib
   SENDMAIL_LDADD=-lsasl2

to /etc/make.conf -- see /usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf for more
details.  This will give you a SASL-enabled base system sendmail once
you rebuild it.

Note that the second choice makes your base system dependent on stuff
external to it, which may or may not be desirable.

Oh, and before anyone else chimes in with a knee-jerk reaction about
using sendmail: there are other MTAs that can provide this
functionality.  As an alternative, either postfix or exim could do what
you want too.  Sendmail works just fine for me though.

Cheers,

Matthew

If I understood Bernt correctly, he wants to use it to relay mail to
some remote MTA (ISP's or similar).  There are lightweight MTAs just
for this purpose, I use mail/msmtp and it works great with multiple
accounts.  Usually, this is much simpler to set up than using
a real MTA like Sendmail or Postfix.

Not that I have anything against using Sendmail and friends for this
purpose.  Just my $0.02. ;)

freebsd using sendmail with tls

2007-11-10 Thread Jonathan Horne
i know, slightly off topic, but is *on* a freebsd server... right?

my smtp is the only remaining part of my email system, that has no encryption 
options, and i think i would like to add tls (even tho i rarely send smtp 
mail from outside my lan).  my setup is right now, fairly basic (only 
includes spamassassin, sasl2, and procmail).  even tho i dont much about it, 
i say tls instead of ssl, as i have a few outlook clients, that would surely 
annoy me 'do you really want to use this certificate', and it would surely be 
each time i sent a mail.  im also assuming that hopefully tls might not do 
this.

before i spend hours and hours googling out my instructions on how to so do, 
does the tls session operate over the standard port 25, or is this what is 
referred to as the smtps port?  and if so, can the server accept either 
version over the same port?

Adding TLS / SSL capability to the stock FreeBSD sendmail is easy.
You need something like the following in your /etc/mail/$(hostname).cf:

define(`CERT_DIR', `MAIL_SETTINGS_DIR`'certs')dnl
define(`confCACERT_PATH', `CERT_DIR')dnl
define(`confCACERT', `CERT_DIR/cacert.pem')dnl
define(`confSERVER_CERT', `CERT_DIR/cert.pem')dnl
define(`confSERVER_KEY', `CERT_DIR/key.pem')dnl
define(`confCLIENT_CERT', `CERT_DIR/cert.pem')dnl
define(`confCLIENT_KEY', `CERT_DIR/key.pem')dnl

This defines two keys and certs for sendmail to use -- one set for
where sendmail is the server and the other for where it is the client.
As shown, you can use the same key and cert for either role, and it
will work pretty well all the time.  Occasionally however you may run
into systems that get snotty about the distinction between client and
server certs -- in that case, the STARTTLS negociation would fail
and you'ld probably end up sending the message in plain text.  That's
not a huge disadvantage given that the majority of mail systems on the
net don't offer the possibility of TLS in any case.

Unlike eg. HTTPS, there's no big thing about buying a server cert signed
by one of the well known CAs -- TLS is more about anti-snooping than
assurance of the other parties identity.  While you can get e-mail certs
from, eg. Thawte for free, they are generally aimed at use in e-mail
client applications.  E-mail servers almost exclusively use self-signed 
certificates.  To generate a self-signed cert, you can follow the
instructions here:

http://www.sendmail.org/~ca/email/other/cagreg.html

That's a very basic set of instructions. There are some more expansive
general instructions on setting up TLS at:

http://aput.net/~jheiss/sendmail/tlsandrelay.shtml

You don't need to worry about the section of the instructions about
compiling sendmail with SSL support -- that's all already enabled in the 
system sendmail.

 before i spend hours and hours googling out my instructions on how to so do, 
 does the tls session operate over the standard port 25, or is this what is 
 referred to as the smtps port?  and if so, can the server accept either 
 version over the same port?

E-mails generally use the 'STARTTLS' approach -- that is, you make
an initial unencrypted connection on the usual port 25 and then turn
that into an encrypted connection over the same port numbers.

There is an alternative approach using port 465, where encryption
is assumed from the very beginning (much more like how HTTPS works)
This is not used by the majority of MTAs out there on the 'net -- I
believe it exists to support certain client software that can't do
STARTTLS when submitting new messages.

If you're using eg. Thunderbird, then it supports STARTTLS perfectly
well and you only need port 25 -- possibly port 587 if you want to be
compliant with RFC 2476.

Cheers,

Matthew

Yes it is, to do this you use a milter program.

You can write one or perhaps use this one:

which has the capability to add boilerplate.  (I don't know if it

 Yes it is, to do this you use a milter program.
 
 You can write one or perhaps use this one:

 which has the capability to add boilerplate.  (I don't know if it
 can add your x-header where you want it, though)

 I am not sure if this is possible or not. Is it possible to add custom
 'X-' headers to mail using Sendmail? For instance, suppose I
 wanted to add
 the Habeas Headers http://www.habeas.com/ to all my outgoing
 email. Is
 it possible to do via Sendmail, or can this only be accomplished via my
 MUA?
 
 I noticed on the Habeas site that there was a configuration for
 Exim, if
 that means anything.

 I hope you don't mean that the name mail.server2.net now points to

 IIRC, this isn't right.  You should only list mail.server2.net in the
 local-host-names of 200.200.200.102.

  - In mailertable = mail.server2.net esmtp:mail.server2.net

 This seems ok.

  Server #2 - IP 200.200.200.102

 This seems ok too.

  Send test mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

 That's because mail.server2.net points to the address 200.200.200.101.

you need to user mailertable to send the email from first server to

the emails for the domains it is holding the mailboxes for (in access

Let me know if you need some config examples.

Re: [OT]Using sendmail(or something else) as my smtp for all user on my network

You want to set up a simple MTA on one of your FBSD machines to act as
your mail server for your LAN. You can use Sendmail, but for the beginner
it can be overwhelming to understand. May I suggest Postfix, as it is
pretty much ready to go out of the box. If you do not have your own
registered domain, you would set it up and can very easily use comcast.net
as your domain on your outgoing email for your entire LAN. This is well
documented in the main.cf file of Postfix on how to do this. You can send
mail through comcast's SMTP server this way.

R Is this possible?

Of course. Then you would route all your mail to Sendmail or Postfix and
have the MTA program you choose, route it through your ISP's (comcast.net)
SMTP server, just like you do now.

R  If so where do I look for information and tutorials
R on this.

Either on the Sendmail or Postfix website.

R I don't want any outgoing mail from my network to go to comcast at all

Ah, this adds a wrinkle. Do you have your own FQDN and do you have mx
records in your DNS (if you are authoritative for your domain)? Also, will
comcast allow you to send mail via your server through their net block on
port 25? Probably not, but you would need to check and have your own
domain. Otherwise, how will you get mail, and not have it go to comcast?

R , but I want to make sure if some one replies to the mail it get back
R to the sender.

Then you need your own domain, and either have your own DNS or have
someone keep / publish the domain records for you. As above, you also have
to check that comcast will allow you to have SMTP out and inbound, or if
they are blocking port 25.. If they do block SMTP (other than their own
domain), you are out of luck.
