possible to run Qmail and Sendmail on one server, both on another port? I need qmail for Plesk and sendmail for OpenEMM Now qmail is working for plesk, but if I install qmail ( I tried install it also from source) and try to run sendmail, I still get this error: Starting sendmails: listener sendmail: illegal option -- q chich probably means, that there isnt full sendmail version.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI had a problem with qmail-smtpd which didn't want to start, throwing a segfault.
Now, it starts but it doesn't live more than 1 sec. I can send emails but can not receive them.
I did a strace:
I have installed Centos 5.4 with Sendmail 8.13.8, i have modified sendmail.mc file and compiled to sendmail.cf with following lines
1. TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`EXTERNAL DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN PLAIN')
2. Define define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS', `EXTERNAL GSSAPI DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN PLAIN')dnl
3. DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp, Name=MTA')dnl
My problem is that when i try to open port 25 with telenet it takes lot of time like more than 1 minute to open session and another 30 - 40 seconds to respond to "ehlo" command.
Also when i try to open telnet session on port 25 in another server it hardly takes 1-2 seconds open session.
currently i want to configure sendmail port number 25 im using these port numberalready how can i chage my senmdail port no.

iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 25 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 25 -j REDIRECT --to-port 25000

I am aware that there is a qmail-ldap package to have ldap back end for qmail. But I need only user authentication for qmail through ldap (not the backend; i.e still keeping Mysql as the database). I am pretty new to mail server configuration. I have just configured a (q)mail server (which is currently my sand box) and am able send and receive emails. I am planning to add ldap authentication (just that) to it. Can anyone point me to the right direction?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am using webmin for my daily tasks. I have fedora 13, whenever I click on ''Sendmail M4 Configuration'' or Outgoing Addresses (generics)'' I get the following error message
Quote:
The Sendmail M4 configuration base directory /usr/share/sendmail-cf was not found on your system, or is not the correct directory. Maybe it has not been installed (common for packaged installs of Sendmail), or the module config is incorrect. I read documentation at sendmail.org, it seems that structure of directories for send mail has been changed in version sendmail-8.1.4 shipped with FC13. In webmin config module we have
Quote:
Sendmail M4 base directory = /usr/share/sendmail-cf
which is not there. I did a locate / sendmail-cf on the command line, it finds nothing
I recently modified sendmail.cf to use a third party SMTP server to send emails. It works great. But when I run sendmail from the command line, I have to specify the -C flag and force feed it the location of my sendmail.cf, or else it doesn't work.
So in other words, the following works great:
However, if I don't specify the -C flag, sendmail doesn't consider what's in the sendmail.cf and barfs:
I don't run sendmail as a daemon. I'm only using it to send emails. I know my modifications of sendmail.cf are correct because it works perfectly when I use the -C flag. I searched my disk to see if I could find another sendmail.cf on the machine and only the one in /etc/mail came up.
Why sendmail is not reading my sendmail.cf?
I'm running Sendmail version 8.14.2 on Fedora Core 8.
Does anyone know the black art of configuring sendmail for proper authentication and SSL on submission port (587) ?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have been trying all day today to setup a sendmail SMTP server on our Red Hat 5.5 dev box. We have 2 network cards, 1 to the local network with a 192.168 prefix and an external card which goes out to the web through a BT leased line through a Cisco router.
First I followed one of the many helpful tutorials online to setup sendmail, installed all the required packages and made a couple of small config changes to allow the service to listen on all IP addresses rather than just the localhost 127.0.0.1.
The main change is in the /etc/mail/sendmail.mc file where I have changed the following line;
DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=x.x.x.x, Name=MTA')dnl
I have tried removing Addr completely, setting to either the local or external IP and then rebuilding the sendmail file using 'make -C /etc/mail' and then restarting using 'service sendmail restart'
The SMTP port has been added into the firewall and it is showing to be listening on IP 0.0.0.0:25 which I believe means it is listening on all IP's assigned to the machine, sendmail is also in listen mode and running correctly.
Finally I have changed the /etc/mail/access file to include the local IP range 192.168 and external IP range and rebuilt this into the /etc/mail/access.db file and then restarted sendmail.
Googling the error all the sites I have found talk about making sure the 'DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=x.x.x.x, Name=MTA')dnl' line is uncommented and not much else in terms of what else might be incorrect.
I am starting to run out of ideas on things to change or check, telnet works correctly on other ports on the same server, ie httpd for apache on port 80. I have also rebooted the server to make sure that it wasn't something odd happening.
One of our client having issue with the qmail. The issue is if any one send email to abc@ourdomain.com (abc@ourdomain.com the email address which is not exist) it should send failure notification i.e."email does not exist" to the sender. The qmail server is not notifying that email address does not exist.

we are using qmail as our MTA. Now the users are using outlook and web client. There is one important thing that i like to share with people here and request from the experts to suggest some solution. when using outlook you can just give someone's else name who has got an account in the same domain having same qmail server running and you will be receiving and sending on the behalf of that person rather you will be using his/her account.

We recently got word from a customer that he received a "451 error - can't connect to server" message from Postini - stating that the server is unreachable.

View 1 Replies View RelatedAnyone have an issue with Messages in Queue going crazy? and inside the emails is: Received: (qmail 13662 invoked by alias); 20 Aug 2010 10:07:14 -0700 Delivered-To: [URL]..
Don't really know what could be causing this, the other day my messages in queue was at like 5,000 or so, but now its up to 445,000 messages in queue!! All of them that exact message.
I am doing this project for our school. Basically we want to pipe all incoming emails to a script which filters out certain messages (not only spam but duplicates, large messages, etc). If they fail certain criteria, the script simply does nothing.If they pass , then the script should pass the entire message (headers and body) back on to qmail to send. The piping part is not a problem, but I am stuck with the next part. Is there a way to pass the headers and body back to qmail for it to process and send, as if it received it the first time?Some details:A catchall email account is created via Plesk control panel on linux (centos).THe .qmail file in /var/qmail/mailnames/domain.com/catchall/ is edited to include the line:-|/path/to/pipe/handler.phpThe handler.php file simply reads the entire message (headers and body) and they are then parsed and analysed.
