    Solved Sendmail in 2022?

    I've been trying to figure out if I really need sendmail, or if there's a better option in 2022 for FreeBSD 13? I read that disabling it entails: sendmail_enable="NO" sendmail_submit_enable="NO" sendmail_outbound_enable="NO" sendmail_msp_queue_enable="NO" But what are the consequences? I do...

    how to prevent sendmail forwarding for relays without PTR

    I'm receiving mail from a server without a PTR record for an emailaddress that is forwarded in aliases to a gmail account. In the maillog it says it's deferred, but actually the mail is forwarded as is to our friends of the alphabet holding. I put the IP address of this rogue server in access in...

    Sendmail + OAuth2 - possible?

    For a long time, I have my Sendmail configured to relay some messages through Gmail. This worked fine, using Cyrus-SASL, `SMART_HOST` and an `authinfo` file. However, today it stopped working, and from research I learn that Google is turning off that method of authentication — no more plain...

    Installing mlmmj

    I'm trying to replace mailman with mlmmj and having a bit of trouble. I run just a few simple lists, so this shouldn't be a big deal. Also, I'm running sendmail (from ports) and have done so successfully for years, and I have downloaded the pkg version of mlmmj. I'm now trying to install a...

    Solved Help compiling sendmail with OpenSSL base (1.0.2) vs. ports (1.1.1)

    I have let my installation drift a bit, so it is running an outdated 11.3-RELEASE-p3. I'm currently doing a source upgrade to 11.4, and from there I'm planning to jump to 12.x. But currently I'm stuck on the 11.4 compile, because sendmail fails. The compile error is: main.o: In function...

    vacation with account receiving forwarded messages

    I hope this is the right forum for this. I'm trying to use /usr/bin/vacation in the usual way, to autorespond to incoming messages. The problem is that if a message is sent to an intermediate email account that then forwards to the message to an account on my mail server, an autoresponse is...

    Sendmail access.db and IPv6 prefixes

    Hi all, I need to specify an IPv6 prefix in /etc/mail/access using CIDR notation and it doesn't seem to work (nor can I find it documented). My range is similar to: "2001:DB8:1111:2200::/56". My network doesn't fall on a 16 bit boundary so I can't just specify "2001:DB8:1111:22" as this is...

    periodic sendmail question

    I’m really sorry if this is documented somewhere in the handbook or elsewhere, but in my ignorance I can’t seem to find it. I’ve just installed a FreeBSD 11.1-RELEASE VM, and specifically opted not to enable sendmail. In my /var/log/maillog file, I get sendmail related errors at around 3am...

    sendmail from ports + blacklistd - stopped working (?)

    Can someone confirm (or disprove) that the current version of Sendmail from ports (8.15.2_5), explicitly compiled with the blacklistd flag, has stopped feeding offending IPs (e.g. those failing do_auth) to blacklistd since Jan 3? I ran blacklistd -d to check, but the poll() revealed nothing...

    First of all, I'm sorry if the title is confusing or doesn't make any sense but I'm simply confused by the intricacies of this whole email technology. I read somewhere that you can send email using sendmail -it < mail but it only goes as far as the queuing list. I've formatted the mail file as...
