How can I send email from localhost on debian jessie? Which mail server/client or package to install?
1) sendmail
2) postfix
3) ssmtp
4) msmtp
5) bsd-mailx
6) exim4
Looking for configurations (example) that i should make?
I'm trying to set up a basic smtp server on my local computer that I can send basic, unencrypted email through on port 25. I installed postfix, and I chose the following options:
Internet Site,
System Mail Name: localhost
Root and postmaster mail recipient: I left this blank
For other domains to accept mail, I entered : NONE, localhost
No force synchronous mail updates
Local networks: 127.0.0.0/8
[Code].....
I ran this command from terminal.
Code: Select allmail -s "Test Subject" example@yahoo.com < /dev/null
Got error on command line:
Code: Select allsend-mail: Authorization failed (534 5.7.14 https://support.google.com/mail/answer/78754 ng13sm2265977pdb.82 - gsmtp)
ssmtp configuration file:
Code: Select allroot=ssmtpmailtesting@gmail.com
mailhub=smtp.gmail.com:587
#rewriteDomain=
hostname=mybox
UseSTARTTLS=YES
AuthUser=ssmtpmailtesting@gmail.com
AuthPass=[mypassword]
FromLineOverride=YES
Would like to know how can I put a daemon on Debian 5 that can send e-mail when the content of a specific folder change, if not possible, at least how to send a daily e-mail with the content of a specific folder.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm running a desktop-less version of Debian via Sun VirtualBox. The reason I'm doing this is because I don't have enough graphics or RAM power to have a desktop environment running on top of my current desktop; also, I want to learn Linux through the command prompt. I'm running the AMD64 version of Debian; I'm not sure if that's relevant.
My main goal is to be able to email useful files from the virtual Debian to my main computer, so that I can save them for later if I ever decide to do a "real" installation of Debian on this computer. I realize now that there's probably some "easy" way to do this by reading the virtual machine's hard drive, but at this point, my curiosity wants to see this issue resolved. I started off wanting to find a command-line program to send my email with, and one was built-in. The syntax ~$ sudo mail -s "Subject" email@yahoo.com "This is a test email."
C^D
Cc:C^D ~$
is what I found. I tried it, and (unsurprisingly), it failed. I then learned that the mail command calls exim4, or something along those lines, so I needed to configure exim4. Soon thereafter, I learned that Yahoo's SMTP wasn't public, but Google's was. So, I found this web page which described how to configure exim4 to allow for email to be sent to a Gmail account. I made one, and followed the page word-for-word.
I sudo-mailled a test email to my Gmail account, and nothing happened. I waited a bit longer, and still, nothing happened. Finally, I started looking around, and found out about the exim4 logs in /var/log/exim4. In my mainlog, I think that it's telling me that Google denied my connection: <date><time><random numbers and letters> == **********.gmail.com R=send_via_gmail t=gmail_smtp defer (111): Connection refused
So, now, I'm just stuck. I don't know what I did wrong, I checked my exim4.conf.template twice for spelling errors, but I don't think I made any. At this point, I can only hope that someone else has had a similar problem, or knows what I'm doing wrong (or haven't done yet).
In my Windows environment, I use email client such as Microsoft Outlook to connect to our email server to send email with the following configuration:
Incoming server (POP3): 995 - (requires with SSL)
Outgoing server (SMTP): 465 - (use encrypted connection SSL)
[code]....
And the mail server requires user ID login and password.how do I setup a text command based email client in my Linux (Centos 5.1) to send out email through the existing email server above, which is in another machine? The email client has to be text command based because I need to use command line to send notification email from anothar application installed in my Linux (Centos 5.1) Since the email client will only be used to send email notification, I don't require setting up of an email server in my linux.
is there a way to allow unsubscribed email address to send emails to mailman list without having to manually set a filter for that email address?

How can I send an email from localhost via the terminal? I don't need pop just smtp.

View 4 Replies View RelatedWhen I send email through sendmail, by using a command such as:
Code:
echo "test" | mail test@gmail.com
This appears in email source:
Quote:
Received: from mydomain.com (localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1])

How can I prevent this? Ideally it would display:

I've tried playing around with the sendmail.mc file, but nothing seems to work.
My sendmail doesn't accept connection from my own host.

View 3 Replies View RelatedCurrently i'm figuring out how to send email notifications to users when services went down in Nagios. I know i need to install and configure Postfix, which i did already. I assume that when i configured to point it to "Satellite mail system" is the correct one instead of other things like "Internet.." etc. So the configurations is when you have installed the Postfix and there would pop a lot of questions right? Other than that, what have i missed?
Oh ya, i remember something. Hmm. I do not have any so-called real smtp server so would that be alright? I heard that installed and getting the Postfix running would be enough as it serves as a MTA (mail transfer agent). So if i do not have any smtp server, the relay host= ' ' what should i put it as?

I have a server ubuntu 9.10.I have 2 adsl lines, one with a static ip for incoming mail and a dynamicI have to do this to have backup.Is it possible to set the server so it will only use the line with the static ip to send email?At the moment the server uses both. It authenticates with the one supplier when it uses the other line.The problem is that when a mall comes in and has a forwarder on my server the supplier blocks it as it thinks it is spam, because it is send from another email. My IT guy is really battling to sort this out.

View 11 Replies View RelatedI am trying to setup a simple SMTP server to relay scanned documents from a Xerox machine to email addresses. Unfortunately the Xerox machine doesn't support TSL or SSL so sending mail over port 25 on gets blocked. I have setup postfix on a desktop running Fedora 13 and have been able to set it up to forward the mail onto the correct server (gmail for example). My question is, how do I get the server to encrypt the emails (scanned documents) when sending them over the internet?
I have tried adding:
Code:
smtpd_use_tls = yes
smtpd_tls_cert_file = /etc/postfix/smtpd.cert
smtpd_tls_key_file = /etc/postfix/smtpd.key
But when I look at the wireshark capture of the sending I can read my test message in plain text.
