General :: Cannot Send Email Via Mutt?
Mar 24, 2010
I use CentOS 5.3 and I am trying to send a simple email through mutt.My command is:echo "test" | mutt -s "test email" myemail addressI have no errors displayed but the email never goes out of the machine. Also the /var/log/maillog is empty.I can see the queued email with:sendmail -bpSo emails never go out.This PC is connected to a network which the gateway is another Linux machine which is configured to be the default gateway in my /etc/resolv.conf as nameserver.

I restarted a server yesterday for the first time in 2 years, but a shell script that send out an email every night via a mutt command line didn't work last night.
I don't know anything about mutt. do i have to start something in order for it to be able to work? is there a log i can look at to see what did or didn't happen making it not work?

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.

I am currently using a shell script to run a java app which performs some integration logic. The shell then continues to compile a file with all stats resulting from the java app. I then send this compiled stats file to several emails. The email is from 'root'. Is there anyway to change this without having to create a new user and running this app as them instead.

In my continuing quest to live without X most of the time, I am trying to set up fetchmail and Mutt to get and send mail. I only want to be able to send and receive text based mail, and so far I am running into trouble with what I think should be pretty simple. For receiving my mail, I believe I only need to create a .fetchmailrc file in my home directory with the entry:
Code: poll [URL] protocol pop3 username "myusername" password "mypassword" But I get:
2 messages for myusername at mail.myISP.com (7965 octets).
fetchmail: connection to localhost:smtp [127.0.0.1/25] failed: Connection refused.
fetchmail: SMTP connect to localhost failed
fetchmail: SMTP transaction error while fetching from wetumpka@mail.btopenworld.com and delivering to SMTP host localhost
reading message myusername@pop-smtp.ISP.mail.fy5.b.yahoo.com:1 of 2 (2734 octets)fetchmail: Query status=10 (SMTP)
It appears to me that it is finding mail but does not know where to deliver it and is refused a connection to my machine. Also, I cannot figure out how to set up my SMTP for my ISP in Mutt to send mail. Can someone point me to a simple tutuorial on how to do these things. I really only want to do what you would with Thunderbird, but from the command line.

Debian 5, apache 2.2 I've got Apache up and hosting multiple sites. Each site will have a php contact me page that will simply dump an email to a fixed address. What program should i be using to accomplish this? I've used nullmailer before but that assumes you have a fixed smarthost somewhere which I don't.

I use gmail for all of my emailing needs but stumbled upon linux counter at counter.li.org. Now I registered on the site and downloaded the machine-update script from the site. So I ran it and it collected the required data. But when I run ./machine-update -m as they have told, I guess no mail gets sent as I have to configure the mail program. How do I configure it so that it sends mail from my gmail address using stmp?

Currently 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 keep getting emails from my 404 error handling system on my CMS saying "mail3.xps.idv.tw:25 cannot be found" with no referer. It would appear that someone is trying to use my server to relay spam to Taiwan. How do I check that my server has the right security to stop this happening?

I'm looking for an easy way to send basic emails for the command line. I have tried configuring sendmail and mailx, but I have yet been able to receive a test email at my remote address. I have read through a fair amount of "how to" on this but I am a little confused and obviously not doing something right. My sendmail.mc file is as follows
Code:

I have some scripts that do usual stuff like backing up MySql database, gz, tar some files and put them on FTP or sync with some other backup/mirror system. Some scripts are running quite frequently (like twice/thrice per hour). I am sending email with attached log output from commands after completion of job. It is quite a lot of email to keep track of.I want to send email only when script fails to do something, that is when some command in script fails. How can I accomplish this?

Send an E-mail to your local account. Try two different ways to send and read it. How can you check that it really arrived? I decided to try using the 'mail' and 'pine' commands. So:
1) Using the root account, intending to send an e-mail to myself (root):
Code:
# mail -s "Hello root!" root
Simple form of sending e-mails internally.
^D (this keystroke is to finish the e-mail)
EOT
2) Using 'pine', another e-mail client: The mail is composed correctly, with 'To:' field set to:
Quote:
[URL]
which is my hostname, as my box runs in a VMWare Slack 12.2 image. In both cases, nothing was received in my mailbox (by typing #mail)... Additionally I don't see any new e-mails when I look at the file '/var/spool/mail/root'. Do I need extra information configuring my mail client/server/service?

I've just setup a new Ubuntu 10.04 LTS server on linode for myself. Followed an excellent instruction at: here to finish the installation of some basic stuff including postfix.
I am trying to figure out a way to send an email to my gmail address with an attachment, but cannot find how. Already confirmed that email can reach my gmail account.
In the end I have to use mutt to send the email with attachments, probably SendEmails will also do well, but I am wondering how to do the same thing in postfix from command-line?

I scan a document with root pressing the scanner button. I would like to send an email using my gmail account. OK. nothing difficult with that... mbsmtp + mutt for sending trhough the sh script.
1-root is to be avoided at max to do some internet duties, due to security. Apt-get is good, but ok surfing or email sending shall be avoided for higher security.
2- sudo or su running mutt through this way, ok, using an existing user. OK, possible and simple, but not comfortable since you have to use an account of an user existing (create a new user for scanner and email?? - no, come on, we have linux and can maybe find a solution)
how to send an Email from root console using an non created USER?

I have s script that standard users use to back up usb drives to lto4 tapes.it asks for a JobNumber and sends an email upon success.I recently expanded it to use Multiple tapes.my specific Q is if the system reaches the end of the tape it happily mentions in the terminal that one needs to put in a second tape.what i would like to do is send an email that --It needs a second tape.( it presently sends an email upon successful compleation - so you see the only way a person knows that they need a second tape is if they
1-- know that the drive they are backing up is < 800GB (lto4)
2-- they do not get a completion emails and the think to walk to the basement and see the request for a second tape.
I wish for an email that would tap them on the shoulder that : " you need to put in a second tape "so -- if i know the exact syntax that shows in the terminal - which is:Prepare volume #2 for `/dev/st0' and hit return:then can i test for that somehow?

I'm trying to write a script that will continuously ping a server and then send out an email when the server is down, and then when it is back up. Then, continuing with monitoring. I would like to not run this in cron, because I don't want to script to run with multiple instances.
For example,
Ping a server every minute.
-If successful, do nothing.
-If failed to ping, then send out email stating that server is down.
-Once ping is successful, then send out email stating that server is up.
I only want it to send an email once after a failure, so the end user isn't get an email every minute that it fails. Once it is successful, then send the email (one time), stating that the server is up. Then, continue to ping and if fails again, repeat the process.

I'm running a cobalt raq550 web server (Linux version 2.6) and I want to install a syslog program on it, something that could log messages and send me an instant email in response to certain messages it receives. Is there such a program?
