Hi,
I am unable to send any mails from my patched OpenBSD 2.9
computer using mutt or mail, here is what I get back:
----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors -----
eedalf_(_at_)_eed_(_dot_)_ericsson_(_dot_)_se
(reason: 501 5.1.8 <eedalf_(_at_)_eed_(_dot_)_ericsson_(_dot_)_se>... Domain of
sender address alex_(_at_)_localhost_(_dot_)_my_(_dot_)_domain does not exist)
The IP-address and DNS servers for that computer are assigned
dynamically via ADSL (ppp):
pref:alex {102} cat /etc/myname
pref
pref:alex {103} cat /etc/resolv.conf
nameserver 212.185.249.84
nameserver 194.25.2.129
pref:alex {122} cat /etc/hosts
::1 localhost localhost.my.domain
127.0.0.1 localhost pref
#192.168.254.254 noname
pref:alex {104} ifconfig tun0
tun0: flags=11<UP,POINTOPOINT> mtu 1490
inet 217.82.203.149 --> 217.5.98.52 netmask 0xffffff00
pref:alex {105} nslookup 217.82.203.149
Server: www-proxy.AC1.srv.t-online.de
Address: 212.185.249.84
Name: pD952CB95.dip.t-dialin.net
Address: 217.82.203.149
I suppose, that I should somehow tell my sendmail to use
my provider's SMTP-server, which is mailto.t-online.de.
I have also read in
http://www.sigmasoft.com/~openbsd/archive/openbsd-misc/200105/msg00613.html
that I should probably add these lines to sendmail's m4-config file:
define(`SMART_HOST',`smtp:mailto.t-online.de')
MASQURADE_AS(`t-online.de')
FEATURE(`masquerade_envelope')
But which file is it? /usr/src/gnu/usr.sbin/sendmail/cf/ostype/openbsd.m4 ?
And how do I compile and install it? Should I do:
cd /usr/src/gnu/usr.sbin/sendmail && make clean && make obj && make build
or not? And where do I put these 3 lines, at the end of openbsd.m4?
Thanks in advance
Alex
