This is pretty much in responce to Jeffrey A Schmidt's mail called "can't relay
any more" posted on Fri, 15 Apr 2005 17:28:34 -0700
Jeffrey,
Gentoo has once again made HUGE changes to a package without informing it's
users thereof before allowing the package to install.
this is from the ebuild :
einfo "Use of vpopmail's tcp.smtp[.cdb] is also deprecated now, consider"
einfo "using net-mail/relay-ctrl instead."
incase you're wondering what this means ...
from the install section:
econf \
##SNIP##
--disable-tcp-rules-prog --disable-tcpserver-file
--disable-roaming-users \
|| die
# TCPRULES for relaying is now considered obsolete, use relay-ctrl instead
#--enable-tcprules-prog=/usr/bin/tcprules
--enable-tcpserver-file=/etc/tcp.smtp \
#--enable-roaming-users=y --enable-relay-clear-minutes=60 \
#--disable-rebuild-tcpserver-file \
They have disabled roaming users aka relaying in vpopmail. You need to emerge
relay-ctrl instead.
Or work around this ..
