I could sucessfully send a e-mail by using 'mail' as normal user at my server. Allthough when I tried to send an e-mail from my laptop with my server as smtp server it kept prompting for my password and this is what was displayed in /var/log/maillog : Aug 5 11:40:36 FStaals sm-mta[101]: k759eEva000101: Riza.FStaals.LAN [192.168.2.5] did not issue MAIL/EXPN/VRFY/ETRN during connection to IPv4 When I googled if I could find a solution I came to this page : http://www.issociate.de/board/post/246978/did_not_issue_MAIL/EXPN/VRFY/ETRN_during_connection_to_MTA.html The solution oppered there was to add ' mech_list: login plain' to /usr/local/lib/sasl2/Sendmail.conf . So I did and it kind of worked, allthough now I can only send e-mail to other users at my server ( for example root ), when I try to mail to an external adress my log 'says' my message is rejected: Aug 5 13:10:30 FStaals sm-mta[1495]: k75BATko001495: ruleset=check_rcpt, arg1=< frankstaals@gmx.net>, relay=Riza.FStaals.LAN [192.168.2.5], reject=550 5.7.1 <fr ankstaals@gmx.net>... Relaying denied Aug 5 13:10:34 FStaals sm-mta[1495]: k75BATko001495: lost input channel from Ri za.FStaals.LAN [192.168.2.5] to IPv4 after rcpt Aug 5 13:10:34 FStaals sm-mta[1495]: k75BATko001495: from=<frank@fstaals.net>, size=373, class=0, nrcpts=0, proto=ESMTP, daemon=IPv4, relay=Riza.FStaals.LAN [1 92.168.2.5] I'm not sure what I have to do to get working correctly and I was hoping someone could give me some hints what I'm doing wrong. Also I'm not sure if it's a good idea to add the 'mech_list: login plain' to sasl2's Sendmail.conf ? Last but not least : I want sendmail to use SSL and listen to port 465. sockstat shows It isn't listening to that port, but I think it should, does anyone happen to know what it is I'm doing wrong at that point: root@FStaals$ sockstat -4 | grep sendmail root sendmail 1410 3 tcp4 *:25 *:* root sendmail 1410 5 tcp4 *:587 *:* root@FStaals$ cat /etc/mail/FStaals.net.cf | grep smtps O DaemonPortOptions=Port=smtps, Name=TLSMTA, M=s Many thanks, -- -Frank Staals -- -Frank Staals
