I am trying to set up a mail server on centos5 using sendmail and dovecot, and eventually spamassassin and some antivirus filter as well. I'd also like to get the proper secure auth mechanism set up at some point too. But for starters, I've been having a lot of difficulty trying to even connect to the mail server from a client computer in the local network. I installed Eudora on the client and after some tweaking in dovecot I was able to connect to the mail server, but then when I try to send an email I get a "connection refused" error, with nothing being logged on the server that I can see.
The last time I set up a mail server was Fedora Core 2, so the configuration files have changed a bit to say the least, and I can't really refer back to those to set up this new server. Does anybody know of a good step-by-step doc on getting the mail server going? I've read the man pages and other various readme's, but these really only list out the available options with no really good explanation of what needs to be done to get the mail server going. If there isn't a full write-up on how to do this, I'll put something together when I'm finished so others can use it in the future.

I am looking for the syntax for a sendmail ruleset to log the message subject to the syslog service. I have found a few posts on the web, but none seem to work. The basic appear to be - add the following to the sendmail.mc file then compile the sendmail.cf file using M4. The syntax suggested follows (I believe the rewrite rule is incorrect)(I and using <T> to indicate tabs):
LOCAL_CONFIC
Klog syslog
HSubject:<T>$>Check_Subject
LOCAL_RULESETS
SCheck_Subject
R$*<T>$:<T>$(log Subject=$1<T>$)<T>$1
sendmail.cf compiles and when used as the config file for sendmail - everything appears to work, but no subject is logged.

We have moved from a Windows based SMTP server to Sendmail on Cent 5.5. We have a special application that was written to look at the "BadMail" folder on the Windows box. I am told by my developers that it is capable of monitor remote locations and they just need to know the format or extension of the badmail files.
My question is what is the default location of the badmail folder in Sendmail? This is a default install from CentOS.

I recently turned on sendmail in CentOS 5.2 and configured it to relay mail for its domain onto some other email account elsewhere. Anyway, it's kind of hit and miss, but I've got a few of these:
Jan 27 21:47:18 smhi sendmail[12176]: n0S3YLaX011994: to=<kevin@hiding.my.domain.com
>, delay=00:12:56, xdelay=00:00:03, mailer=esmtp, pri=120673, relay=mx.hiding.my.mailrelay.com
[65.87.230.26], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: 451 4.3.0 Greylisting is active,
please try again later.
I don't think I have any greylisting software installed, but it seems to be greylisting? What's up with that? And why would it be intermittent? how I turn this off?
I've previously configured sendmail on Fedora systems and CentOS 4 and haven't run into this before...

After upgrading to CentOS 5.3 my sendmail will no longer deliver messages using a program in my /etc/smrsh. It fails with the message "unknown mailer error 1". This program was working perfectly before I did the upgrade using yum. Here is the list of packages that were upgraded. Does anything jump out as being the source of the issue? I don't believe that sendmail itself was upgraded:
Packages Installed:
dbus-libs - 1.1.2-12.el5.x86_64
libselinux-utils - 1.33.4-5.1.el5.x86_64
Packages Updated:
initscripts - 8.45.25-1.el5.centos.x86_64

I am trying to make my webserver a well respected email sender and it appears to me that using DKIM is something I need to do.
I have no experience with this and would like to know if anyone thinks there are issues that I should be aware of before going down this path.
Also, I have not been able to find any good, STEP BY STEP, documentation on how to set up DKIM with Sendmail.
I am also not sure if you need a certain network configuration for DKIM to work...this is what I am working with:
My webserver (centos 5.3, sendmail 8.13.8) sends outgoing mail and has a valid reverse DNS that matches a forward DNS. The MX records for my webserver's domain point to a third party email provider who handles the incoming mail for that domain. I added an spf record that signifies it that my webserver is authorized to send mail for mydomain.

I have been trying to get procmail working on CentOS 5.2. I don't need anything fancy, just an auto reply for a "noreply@" account. Looking at the sendmail configuration, it appears procmail is the MDA. I have looked at many different tutorials and how-tos, but most are old, and/or the locations/paths and setups are markedly different from the defaults on my system. Can anyone recommend a good CentOS-based tutorial on Procmail w/ recipes? (I have an RHEL book and it's no help either.) Thank you for your time and consideration.

We have CentOS 5.3 and are using sendmail for outbound emails. We are trying to switch over to authsmtp service. Authsmtp requires sendmail built with SASL suport.
How do I find out if my sendmail has been built with SASL support? If it is not, is it easy to build it with SASL support?

I've been having this problem since 10.6 released, but have until now been successful with the "just use Thunderbird" response. My sendmail server hasn't been changed, but as clients upgrade from OSX 10.5 to 10.6 suddenly mail.app will no longer connects to send SMTP messages through the server. (IMAP connections to the same server using the same user/pass combinations work perfectly) When I look at the logs, things basically stop right after the STARTTLS command.
Google indicates alot of people are having similar problems, but I'm not seeing any solutions. Do any of you administrate sendmail servers where some of your clients are using Apple's Mail.app on Snow Leopard, and if so what settings are you using? At this point, I'm happy to make changes to the server to accommodate Apple's issue, I have too many Mac users connecting to my server. I just can't figure out what to change. I've enabled virtually every possible login authentication combination, and none of them work.

Is there a simple way to move the Sendmail queue folder? Presently it's at the default location on /var/spool/mqueue/ but when / recently ran out of space (my fault storing backups there), it was unable to receive any more mail. There is plenty of space at another partition. My /var/opt/scalix location lives on another set of discs with lots of room. I created a folder called /var/opt/scalix/sendmail/mailqueue/ but uncertain how to move the existing queue to it.

I have setup CentOS 5.2 with Nagios to monitor my network and have that configuration almost done. I have also setup Sendmail to forward all mail (really only Nagios notifications) out to my Exchange server using define('SMART_HOST', 'exchange.domain') in the sendmail configuration file and it seems to be working correctly.is there a way to configure Sendmail to forward all mail out through my Exchange server as it is now but send mail out to the internet itself if the exchange server is unavailable, somewhat like a failover configuration.

i currently installed centos 5.3 with postfix. My old server is centos 4.5 final / new 5.3 final. Old server has sendmail / new has postfix. how can i transfer all the mail and settings from the old to the new? also, the old mail server is mail.xxx.xxx and for testing purposes i named the new mail server mail2.xxx.xxx.
when i an ready to put it into production, the new server will need to be mail.xxx.xxx and the old removed from the system. How do i go about changing the name and making sure everything comes out correct?

I ended up with this setup:

I am setting up a CentOS box as a NAT firewall that needs to also send mail. It needs to send this mail using an outside provider's SMTP. The provider requires SMTP over SSL. None of the machines inside the NAT will ever send mail except via the provider's SMTP nor will they ever receive mail except to local clients via the provider's IMAP servers.
So for the example the machine is TESTMACHINE. There is one internet facing ethernet port connected to a DSL modem via pppoe.
The SMTP it needs to send mail via is mail.host.net which requires SMTP over SSL (port 465) and username/password authentication.
The sendmail documentation is quite confusing on how to get this simple setup operating, so an example showing the appropriate changes to sendmail.mc and other require config files.
