Hello Everybody!
Would somebody please explain me this.
I have a shell script that I pretend to use for sending outgoing mail thr=
ough
serialmail.
Because by now I only have one Internet address for my LAN, before sendin=
g the
outgoing mail the shell script calls a perl program for changing the From=
: and
Reply-to: local addresses and then
calls the procedure to send to the ISP.
Here is the shell script:
################
#!/bin/sh =
# Para envio de correo externo a traves de serialmail
# 205.161.188.24 es la direccion IP del servidor de correo de quik
mv /var/qmail/alias/outgoing/new/* /var/qmail/alias/outgoing2/new/
perl /usr/home/eduardo/scripts/chadd10.pl
rm /var/qmail/alias/outgoing2/new/*.bk
# Envio al isp
/usr/local/bin/maildirsmtp /var/qmail/alias/outgoing2 alias-outgoing-
205.161.188.24 \
`hostname`
#################
The problem is this:
When I execute the shell script being root, everything works fine until
calling:
/usr/local/bin/maildirsmtp ...
Simply does nothing, I mean doesn't send the outgoing mail. Even though t=
he
shell script finishes.
But if I comment the line where perl is executed, the outgoing mail goes =
away
but without the changes that the perl script does.
What's wrong?
