I prefer to use IMAP if possible. [cut] sendmail uses SMTP. popa3d is in base for POP3. I haven't got as far as IMAP yet. Wikipedia and the manuals a good place to start! Running an external-facing mail server might not be a good idea until you've got a lot more of the concepts under your belt! HTH.

Can this be caused by flaky hardware? Maybe, but then this could be an unexpected compiler configuration change. Do you have an /etc/mk.conf file specifying fancy compiler options? You might want to look at the files causing compilation problems (sys/sched.h, xenocara/lib/pixman/pixman/pixman.h) and compare them to fresh 4.6 files as well. Or it could be that either /usr/include/machine/_types.h or /usr/include/sys/_types.h has been modified or replaced, and definitions of types such as int32_t are missing. The source tree is a clean checkout and there is no /etc/mk.conf. I moved the hard disk to a different machine and both make build and make release finished without a hitch. So it seems the first O2 does have some hardware problem. The machine is building X now, I have good hopes it will finish this as well. Maurice

Thanks everyone... especially the OpenBSD Team for the best OS in the world. Hi Mark, You will be in for quite an adventure. Sendmail is only one part of a fully fledged mail system. What sendmail does in OpenBSD is accept connections and deliver mail to the local mailbox or relay the mail to be delivered by another mail server. If you want to configure an IMAP mailbox for example I would use dovecot. Now, what else you need is dependent on your needs. So can you explain to me what you want to be able to do with your mail system? Feel free to send me a personal message if you need more help during configuration. I run a mail system on OpenBSD, which lets me send mail from anywhere in the world and read my mail from anywhere and it handles all mail destined to my domain, all in a secure fashion. Software I use to accomplish this is sendmail, cyrus-sasl, dovecot, procmail, fetchmail. You might want to read up on those. Regards, Ivo van der Sangen

smtpd: format for certificates

smtpd: feature like the transport table in postfix
Hi, OpenSMTPD is great. Really simple configuration syntax. But I missed one thing from postfix: Would it be possible to do MX lookups in a relay via statement? I mean: Postfix have the transport table feature. I use this feature to relay some maildomains to their really mailhub instead of my smarthost. 90 % of my mails go to the smarthost, but i have some exceptions. In smtpd.conf I try this: accept from $mynetwork for example.org relay via mail.example.org accept from $mynetwork for all relay via $smarthost tls enable auth But a transport table entry in postfix can do mx lookups: example.org smtp:example.org example.net smtp:[mail.example.net] first entry is with MX lookup, second without. Would it be possible to implement a switch for the relay statement for with/without MX lookup, for example: accept from $mynetwork for domain example.org relay via mail.example.org accept from $mynetwork for domain example.net relay via mx:example.net First form for without MX lookup, second with MX lookup.

Man pages are popular to remove, as are entries in /sys for other arches than your own. But I've been pestered at least four times now, by people trying to save space that shot themselves by this and broke things--and didn't know how to fix it. All of OpenBSD fits into a very small partition. Are you saying that you really don't have a flash drive (or whatever) of a gig in size? Of course I don't know what you want to do with the system once its runing, but the more complex it is, the smaller OpenBSD is going to be in comparison to that. Lastly if you do build a little shrip frankensystem, asking for help here isn't going to get a lot of sympathy. You'll be on your own. --STeve Andre'
PKG_PATH never works as stated
I've had this problem for a long time (over many OpenBSD releases). The pkg_add man page (for 4.5) states: If a given package name cannot be found, the directories named by PKG_PATH are searched. It should contain a series of entries separated by colons. Each entry consists of a directory name. URL schemes such as FTP, HTTP, HTTPS, or SCP are also appropriate. On a client machine: PKG_PATH=http://$HTTP_MASTER/:http://$HTTP_MASTER/by_port/i386/all/ My master server serves up normal packages and those packages compiled from ports. When I do this only the first component is searched. I have to do a second package update run with PKG_PATH pointing directly to the second component for the ports packages to be seen. Why is this? -- /jm

The pkg_add man page (for 4.5) states: If a given package name cannot be found, the directories named by ^^^ PKG_PATH are searched. It should contain a series of entries separated by colons. Each entry consists of a directory name. URL schemes such as FTP, HTTP, HTTPS, or SCP are also appropriate.

I tried the procedure in man starttls and ended with 2 file, too. If I use the mycert.pem from the steps in man starttls (as file fxp0.crt) i get the same error with smtpd -n: /etc/mail/smtpd.conf:9: cannot load certificate: fxp0 smtpd.conf(5) currently has a simple example for using an rsa certificate (which we should probably change). you can use the info in that page and starttls(8) to do the same using a dsa certificate. jmc Silly question, but are Microsoft's products and openssl finaly compatible when using DSA suites? I was never able to make them interact succesfully and it was just easier to always use RSA certs to make it work.
