Hi Marc,

The wiki and website (not yet deployed) now mention that documentation on sendmail is outdated.

About your question, did you try on Postfix mailing list?

Tks,

Hi Eric -  Yes, that is the web page I was referring to. I see it is
also in the wiki http://wiki.apache.org/james/JamesAndSendmail and I
would suggest leaving it there, but would concur that removing the link
from the main website area is a good idea. The last time I configured
Sendmail to exist peacefully with James, I found a lot of the
configuration details had changed and much of the documentation
obsolete. With the movement towards Postfix, this webpage will no longer
be relevant except for those who are going to continue to use the older
Sendmail.

I will continue to either wait for an answer to my question on how to
configure Postfix, or try to do some more research for a solution on my
own. If I come up with an answer, I will post a solution and suggest it
be incorporated into the Wiki page.

Hi Marc,

Are your referring to
http://james.apache.org/server/james_and_sendmail.html?

I was thinking removing the link to this page as the information is
not more up-to-date.

I have no knowledge on Postfix/Sendmail configuration, and can not
help on this.

Tks,

Hi -

Correct me if I am wrong on my understanding of these tools, don't claim
to be an expert!   I just upgraded my openSuSE server to the latest
release 11.4, and am trying to setup James (version 2.3.2) and configure
the rest of the system to something similar to what I have had in the
past. Part of this involved configuring Sendmail so it would route email
sent through it (from applications such as Bugzilla) through James.
(This also prevented a conflict on using the mail ports as well). For
this, the James website provided a set of instructions for configuring
Sendmail to work with James and I have had success in the past following
these instructions.

With the latest version of openSuSE, it appears that Sendmail (as a
standalone MTA) is being phased out and Postfix is the replacement.
Postfix has it's own version of Sendmail so as to remain backwards
compatible with applications that use Sendmail. However, there isn't a
separate configuration file for the Postfix-Sendmail so the instructions
on how to configure Sendmail to work with James is no longer applicable.
I need to retain the Sendmail API for a number of applications that also
run on my server.

SO? How does one configure Postfix to work with James? Any pointers and
advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance... (Any chance of
updating the webpage on the James website that discusses this? I think
it too is quite a bit out of date and many of the details no longer
apply either, though I have been able to figure out what to do despite
the documentation errors.)

     Marc...
