I need help in setting up the native e-mail client included in Debian Squeeze. My ultimate goal is to have the Debian e-mail client download e-mail messages and process attachments automatically.

I am trying to configure mutt to send email via command line . It works fine when I configure it for gmail as follows:Quote:

I have set up postfix and dovecot as per the Ubuntu anual and appear to have a functioning mail server.Using the sendmail command I can send mail and I receive mail in ~/Maildir. Using Thunderbird I can read any mails received but I can't send any mail from Thunderbird. I have tried with both STARTTLS and SSL/TLS and whilst I get the prompt for a password I keep getting the message my password for my server is wrong.I have ports 25, 465, 587 and 993. Is that all the right ports?When I ping my domain name it resolves to my router name whereas I believe it should resolve to my IP. Could there be a problem with my host file? I've had a play but to no avail.Here's the error in mail.log.
Code:
westwood@westwood-desktop:/etc$ tailf /var/log/mail.log

View 3 Replies View RelatedWhenever Debian is installed, a mail client is also installed. I don't have the faintest idea what is happening below the surface, but if something happens with the system, like a failed cronjob, a mail is sent to my account on that computer. I can't recall it exactly, but I think during Debian installation I had to specify where system mail has to go to. In my case I am installing as jlinkels, so all mail directed to root goes to jlinkels. I am not sure if that redirection is still asked, on older versions I know it was, but I can't remember I had to tell that while installing newer versions. Anyway, on all boxes, automatically a folder /home/jlinkels/Maildir is created and within that the subfolders new cur and tmp. Whenever I log in in such a box mail is checked, and when I run mail I get a listing and can read the mail.
However, now I am running a server for which it is extremely important that I get the mail if there is something exceptional, and this mail does not function. That is, I don't have the ~/Maildir/new ~/Maildir/cur etc, but for some reason I do have ~/new, ~/cur etc. Now when something happens, root receives a mail. This mail is placed in ~/new. But when I run mail I see that there is no new mail for me. Still there is new and unread mail in ~/new. Installed Debian Lenny on this box and did nothing unusual. I have installed tens of Lenny boxes and run thru the installation procedure almost with my eyes closed so I am pretty sure I did not do anything out of the ordinary on this box. Still the mail is screwed up.
A few observations:
- the system (programs like cron) know they should send mail to root. This happens. I see in the header the mail is sent to root.
- the mail system (whatever that is) knows that mail to root should be sent to jlinkels
- the mail system even knows where to find the mailboxes of jlinkels
- the mail client does not know where to find new mail for jlinkels
I have seen that exim4 is running on the box. Is exim4 responsible for forwarding and dropping the mail in ~/new? How this mail is produced, how it is dropped in my mailbox, and how the mail client can find this.
I cannot get exim4 to actually deliver any "local delivery only; not on a network".But whatever I do in the config, all mail gets frozen with entries in the log file like:"root@empty R=nonlocal: Mailing to remote domains not supported"Maybe the problem is that there is no fqdn for the computer (and will never be). How can I enable local mail delivery?
View 14 Replies View RelatedThe question is pretty much the same as the subject. I have a bunch of debian servers - most of them running exim4 default installations configured as internet site using dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config. It can send mails fine from php scripts and some other applications, but I can't seem to find a way to forward all root mail to some external address. I have tried adding "root: someaddress@example.com" to /etc/aliases and run newaliases command, but it doesn't seem to work.
View 3 Replies View Relatedi basically had this system installed for our mail system.The setup is as follows:
1. Operating system installed is Debian ver. 5.0.3
2. Roundcube is installed as a webmail(if its right for me to say that)
3. The server is hosted right here at our offices
4.The server uses relay system to send mail i.e. relays all our mails to our ISP
That all i can say about the configurations becuase thats as much as i understand it.The problem now is that we are not able to send or recieve emails from both internal and external.I tried to send mail to a collegue in the office who is on our local LAN,Roundcube says sent successfully but the person does not recieve the mail.i tried to send to my yahoo address but nothing.I dont know where these mails have been trapped.
I have Evolution mail troubles.
Evolution won't auto download mail and if I do it manually by clicking Send/Recieve it shuts down. When I restart it the new emails appear.
If I go to Edit and click on Preferences Evolution locks up and I must force it to shut down in order to restart it.
Basically it's become next to useless.
I've tried using synaptic to Reinstall and Completely Remove the application however when I reinstall the same problems are there.
Is it possible to re-set it back to defaults? I don't mind if I loose all information as I can back up easily enough.
I've installed Postfix and have the server running.On installation, it asked me which domain the service will be for. I entered "test.com". The service will be used for multiple domains. Can Postfix service multiple domains? If so, how can it be done?How does one create a user account? I have read the user account is a UNIX user account. My UNIX user name is "n", so would that mean my e-mail would be "n@test.com"?Is it true mail will be stored in /var/mail by default?I read on Wikipedia that Postfix does not support IMAP, so how does one access mail remotely, or even locally?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a question about viewing HTML emails in the Evolution mail client. Basically, I am receiving some emails that look lovely in Thunderbird but not in Evolution because the HTML rendering of Evolution isn't as advanced.Here is a screenshot of the difference: how to improve the HTML rendering of Evolution? e.g. a plugin, tip, code patch, etc. The closest I've got is to right-click the email, "Save As...", save as a html file, then open in Firefox. Not exactly streamline!What emails can't it display well? We use the subversion revision control system which is set up to send an email whenever someone commits via svnnotify all nicely coloured via the --handler HTML::ColorDiff -d parameter. When Evolution fails to use the colours, I find it very hard to read the raw diff.

Is there an open source application that can download e-mails from a generic POP mail server, keep a copy of the mails locally and then deliver copies to multiple accounts on a LAN? I have a friend who uses a group e-mail account, and more than one person is always hooked onto that account. The problem is they cannot leave e-mail on the server, as it eats out their webhosting space, but if someone downloads a message in Outlook, the other users do not see that message.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI had a problem with my OpenSUSE with Tumbleweed repository enabled that required me to do a hard power off of my ASUS N61JV-X2 notebook PC. I had Evolution running at the time. When I did a cold boot of my laptop and I ran Evolution again, it does not display my e-mail messages anymore. In fact, I had to install Mozilla Thunderbird with the Enigmail extension so that I can read and write e-mail messages.
How do I fix Evolution so that it will retrieve and display my e-mail messages and I can write new ones using this software package?
