Hi Stewart, > The previous nmh was 1.4
That's a big jump. If you haven't already seen it, then the list of per-release changes in NEWS could be useful. http://git.savannah.nongnu.org/cgit/nmh.git/tree/NEWS > I changed the port to 25 from 2525, but the connection there was also > refused. I left it at 25. mhparam now shows: > -port 25 -alias /home/wilson/.mh_aliases > I'm attaching mts.conf. Where did you find that? Was it the same directory that `mhparam etcdir' shows? > mts: smtp ... > servers: mail.eskimo.com That suggests to me that nmh will try to talk SMTP to mail.eskimo.com to send the email, > Also .mh_profile ... > send: -port 25 -alias /home/wilson/.mh_aliases and that it will connect on port 25, the standard SMTP port. I can connect from here. $ nc mail.eskimo.com 25 220 mail.eskimo.com ESMTP Postfix quit 221 2.0.0 Bye ^D $ But your original email to the list showed attempts to connect to localhost. What now? send -snoop Trying to connect to "localhost" ... Connecting to ::1:2525... Connection failed: Connection refused Connecting to 127.0.0.1:2525... Connection failed: Connection refused so I'm thinking mts.conf isn't being found. At the `What now?' prompt, try send -snoop -mts smtp -server mail.eskimo.com -port 25 and we'll see if that gets further. -- Cheers, Ralph. -- nmh-workers https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
