Ubuntu :: Msmtp And Gmail - Can't Send Emails At Bootup But Works After Login?
May 10, 2011
I'm running 11.04 desktop 64 bit and have smartmontools and mdadm set to send automated test emails at bootup (I have a RAID5 setup).I'm using msmtp with a gmail account. When I'm logged in, I can manually send test emails with both smartmontools and mdadm; neither will send me an email at bootup even though they are set to do so. The msmtp log at bootup has a smtp.gmail.com exitcode=EX_NOHOST.why it can't find the smtp server at bootup but has no problem once I'm logged in and test it manually? Is there some dependency that isn't loading in time at bootup???
My issue is that i'm trying to send emails with postfix and gmail as the mail relay,i'm trying to send emails to my self by sendmail -bv user@gmail.com
In the logs, i can understand that it been delivered to the destination, taken from: /var/log/mail.log: Apr 30 00:05:23 moni postfix/pickup[10490]: 9C7552170C: uid=0 from=<root> Apr 30 00:05:23 moni postfix/cleanup[10495]: 9C7552170C: message-id=<20110429210523.9C7552170C@moni.localdomain> Apr 30 00:05:23 moni postfix/qmgr[10491]: 9C7552170C: from=<root@moni.localdomain>, size=283, nrcpt=1 (queue active) code....
When login in my gmail account i can't see nothing under the sent / inbox / spam folder.
it's seems like the mail are been sent.. but nothing is happening.
I have evolution set up to send emails using gmail's smtp server. I've always been able to do it with no problems, but a couple of days ago I stopped being able to send emails to gmail accounts. I can send emails to other addresses but not gmail. The same happens with my wife's laptop with ubuntu. The only thing I can think of is that we recently moved and thus changed ISP, but I don't see how that's preventing us to send mails specifically to gmail accounts...
i've been trying to send emails to my gmail account and it works now. using postfix, how do i make nagios send notifications to my gmail account when any services go down?i saw this commands for email in commands.cfg:
Evolution works fine for receiving mail, but I cant send anything.When i hit "send/receive" itll receive but ask for smtp password every single time. My understanding is that the password is your email password, but it wont accept it.
i'm using fedora 12 and i wanna send mail using command $mail actually i tried to send mail to my gmail , yahoo ,and hotmail emails but i didn't receive the mail so i expect that i should have some configuration on my host before sending mai
Chrome crashes when I try to send attachments using Gmail, instead firefox works fine. Several users have the same problem, but I could't find a solution.I use openSuse 11.3, Chrome 7.0.517.44 and the lastest flash version.
I found this page to have the configuration of : but I have to adapt and get always errors. [URL] What are the minimum configurations so that one can do : echo test | mutt me and it sends it via msmtp and mutt one can read his emails using hte imap enabled on the account?
I'm writing a script that will send an alert email given certain conditions. I have the impression that sendmail is what I need to do that. I just don't know how to use sendmail at all. I assume I have to set it up like a typical mail client so that it has a mail server to log into to send from.
I've looked through the man pages, but I can't find anything in plain English there on how to set it up, or how to use it once it is set up.
I have a server on CentOS 5.And I would like to set up an automatic forward so that every incoming message of a specified user gets forwarded to a specified email (my gmail account).In your opinion, what is the simplest solution ?
In general, sending to people with gmail accounts fails although it works for others.Here's the error message:Evolution ErrorError while Sending message.RCPT TO <someuser@gmail.com>failed:<someuser@gmail.com> No such user hereI have Evolution Sending Email set to Server Type: SMTP.
I use Evolution with my Ubuntu lucid lynx. My email server is optonline.net. I can't send to from my evolution to yahoo mail or gmail. If can send from optonline.net web mail.I am wondering whetherI have a wrong setting or is it something with evolution itself.
I have configured Evolution to use my Gmail account. I am able to read my Gmail, but I have not been able to send email. I have found instructions to do this from several sources, which include the Gmail website and Ubuntu help at HTML Code: [URL]. The instructions from all sources have been consistent:
Instructions for Sending(smtp) Mail from Gmail: 1. Server: smtp.gmail.com Note: Some ISPs block port 25, if you are having a problem sending mail, substitute smtp.gmail.com:587 for the server information above. 2. Server requires authentication: Checked 3. Security: TLS encryption 4. Authentication: Plain or Login 5. Username: johndoe@gmail.com
I have also tried using port 587 and 465 as alternates. When I try to send an email, there appears to be two stages: it successfully completes the first stage that refers to POP, but gets stuck on the second stage that refers to SMTP.
I'm stuck with postfix. It cannot send emails and I cannot find out why! smtpPort 25/tcp is open. I can telnet localhost with 25, but not the localhosts IP(192.168.1.15). Sendmail is OFF. Here is the main.cf file!
# See /usr/share/postfix/main.cf.dist for a commented, more complete version # Debian specific: Specifying a file name will cause the first # line of that file to be used as the name. The Debian default
have plenty of experience in ubuntu and mandriva.I am looking for a way of sending emails from CLI via my gmail account.in ubuntu I use mailx+exim4. in mandriva i use msmtpbut in opensuse i cant install exim4, and the installation of msmtp has a completely different architecture and i cant find the configuration file i modified in my mandriva computer to send mails via gmail.Does anyone know of a simple and quick installation of some MTA in opensuse which can satisfy my need?
I just want to be able to send emails through my webserver, setup. I couldn't find a dev forum - so thought i'd post here. I'd like to be able to send emails (form my localhost setup) to and from my global client, namely: ( ***@yahoo.com), using PHP and Apache. A snippet from my php.ini file looks like:
Code: ; For Unix only. You may supply arguments as well (default: "sendmail -t -i"). ; http://php.net/sendmail-path sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail -i -t sendmail_from = example@yahoo.com
Now, I never could get this working in Windows, let alone Linux. I could do with it working though.
I am looking to send emails from cron for backup information. However, all the programs I have found (mail, mutt) require the password in plain text. Does anyone know of a more secure method? In fact, if it is only sending, is there a way to do this without logging into an account? What is the simplest way, without making it check emails too?
i am working on a neat little bash script, and i want the output to be mailed to my email account. So far i have tried installing sendmail then running: mail -s Test myemail@gmail.com But that hasn't worked; and i did check my spam folder. Am i missing something or is there a better technique all together?
No Bootup just a Black Screen with a frozen cursor after install, but LIVE CD works in 1024x768 mode? Well, I have a Sony Bravia 32xTV with HDMI input coming out of a ZOTAC nvidia type of card. The live CD will recognize the HDMI graphics card and Sony TV/monitor and thus works like Ubuntu normally does. But when I go to install to a hard drive and try to boot up I get just a Black Screen with a frozen cursor. I even have another Ubuntu 8.04 version running on the Sony Bravia TV , so no problem with TV end of things. what do I do now, oh great Ubuntu gurus out there in cyberland? what could I possibly do , what do I read, where do I go , what, where, who, how, when ,which way?
I'm looking for a solution for sendmail to limit the number of emails send per miniute per IP. For example all my local computer user with ip 192.x.x.x need to able to send 10 emails/minite (emails, not connections!. The rest of the world can send for example 200 emails/minute to the mailserver. If the amount of emails per minute is exceeded, sendmail needs to block receiving emails from the spesific IP. I want to do this to stop spaming from my local network. Is it possible?
I have configured Postfix on a Ubuntu 8.04 box using this tutorial:I can send emails but I cannot receive any email because of a "bad recipient address syntax:"The log from /var/log/mail.info says this:
I have a web application installed on a Debian server that sends out a lot of e-mails. Is there a way to configure Postfix to retain the messages in a queue and send all of them at midnight for example
Howdy. I'm trying to get mailman up and running. I have CentOS 5 (hiab) and qmail. I did yum install mailman and that went fine, I set up apache and can see the mailman pages via htttp.The issue now is with sending mail, whenever I send emails to the list I get: 511 511 sorry, no mailbox here by that name
So I'm assuming my alias files/.qmail fies are in the wrong spot. The contents of my .qmail are (respective to the -admin, -bounces, -etc)
can any one please tell me that how to send mail from localhost to gmail or yahoo or some other server,i think it is some mail relay server problem but dont know how to get over it.i am using fedora 13.and i had setup dovecot,sendmail and squirrelmail properly.and configured them. i have no problem to send mail from my local host to me back.my squirrel mail and mutt works fine.bt only problem is that they cant send any mail on other servers.
I have a couple of servers that are scripted to send cron script output logs to my email address (a Gmail address). Mailx is what I am using, but I didn't have to configure anything; I installed it, and it just worked with the following command: mailx -s "SUBJECT" -r FROMMYADDRESS TOMYADDRESS < FILETOCATANDSEND
This occurs every Saturday and Sunday at noon after my backup scripts run. I noticed yesterday that I did not receive these logs, so I logged into the machine, started 'mail' and saw messages like this: This is the mail system at host media.deagle.lan.
