Hi, I installed ssmtp from ports to take the place of sendmail. I've never successfully gotten sendmail configured, but I use ssmtp happily on Linux. I was wondering what I need to do or change in order to get ssmtp to work. When I try to send an email (trying simply just with 'mail' first), I get this error: bash-2.05$ send-mail: can't open the smtp port (25) on mail. I know that rc.conf has to have the sendmail_enable="YES" in it for using sendmail, but do I need to do something like this for ssmtp? Any insight or pointers would be great. Please CC: me as I'm not on the list. Thanks, Jeremy __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Send FREE video emails in Yahoo!
