Subject: RE: [on-asterisk] Sending voicemail notifications thru rogers

 

 

Hello,

 

I am running my own E-mail server on the Rogers network - with dynamic

DNS. The Sendmail can be configured to use the rogers SMTP as a relay

server with authentication. You need to change a few things on the

sendmail.mc and recompile it but it can be done.

 

the first thing that needs to be configured is:

 

"Smart" relay host to be SMTP.broadband.rogers.com

 

you are better of changing the sendmail.mc file and then compiling the

sendmail.cf from there. Also make sure that the daemon is set to listen

on port 587 as well, because rogers changed the smtp to port 587.

 

in the /etc/mail/auth there has to be a file called "client-info" that

will have to contain the authentication information for the rogers

account.

 

Basically that is it. Please search the internet, there is lots of

documentation on how to modify these files, and how to compile them in

the system once the modification is done.

 

I have inside my network my main E-mail server running Scalix - (which

by the way is a pretty nice E-mail solution - even offers an outlook

connector) which is set to communicate the way described above with the

rogers smtp. My trixbox server is set to send messages through my Scalix

server. My mother in Hungary has an extension to my trixbox server, she

has an E-mail address local to them, and she always receives the

voicemail messages I leave her in E-mail.

 

So give it a try, I know sendmail is a pain, but once it is done

properly it works well.

 

Thanks,

Zoltan.

Subject: [on-asterisk] Postfix with Rogers

 

Hi all, before I lose all my hair, can anybody help me get my email up and
running on an asterisk (Freepbx) system ?

 

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?
