Henrey I went thru the same problems! I couldnt get SSL to work (I was missing packages on my linux box) so I couldnt use Gmail.
I ended up installing ssmtp as my mail program. I am using more as a mail relay... Linux box --> Rogers --> Outside world SMTP: smtp.broadband.rogers.com ***You will need to use a username / password*** Next you need to configure another account / domain to be used 1) Log into your rogers yahoo mail account 2) Click on options > mail options 3) Select the accounts tab 4) Add or Edit Account 5) Add the account you want you mail to appear to come from, mine is "[email protected]" I can post my config files if it helps / you switch to ssmtp.

I removed Sendmail and replaced it with Postfix because it's easier to configure. (Email is a mystery to me). Rogers is blocking the SMTP port (25) so I can't directly SMTP using their server. Do I need to use a relay and can I use my existing email account hosted with Google? The Asterisk box uses a Dynamic domain address (i.e.mydomain.dyndns.biz) All I need to do is send email with the attached vmail files why is it so difficult to configure? -- Henry Coleman
