Does anyone have very much experience setting up sendmail?
I have it installed and am trying to get it to map the received address to
a new address stored in an LDAP directory. Sendmail receives the
request and retrieves the new address from the LDAP directory. I think it
is a problem with my cf file. This is my first attempt to use sendmail.
Where can I find resources that describe how to read the code in the cf
file. How can I trace what sendmail is doing with the request.
when I use sendmail -bt i get
ADDRESS TEST MODE (ruleset 3 NOT automatically invoked)
Enter <ruleset> <address>
> 5 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
rewrite: ruleset 5 input: c . stanton @ brio . austin . innosoft . com
rewrite: ruleset 5 returns: stanton @ brio . austin . innosoft . com
>
so c.stanton is being mapped to stanton.
sendmail -bv [EMAIL PROTECTED] returns
[EMAIL PROTECTED] User unknown
But sendmail -bv [EMAIL PROTECTED] return
[EMAIL PROTECTED] deliverable: mailer local, user
stanton
Somewhere along the way the transformation is being lost. I guess what I
really need is a way to read and understand the operations going on in the
cf file and I don't have a sendmail reference book available.
