Add in issues with RBLs and what not. I should also add that this is nowhere near a fix as many ISPs have started blocking SMTP access for their users to servers that they do not control, for this very same reason. So no, I don't think configuring an SMTP server with worth the time and effort for a few people that are unable to 'fake' the From: field in their clients. - Nigel > > Thomas > > [1] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EmailAliases > > > Am Freitag, den 03.10.2008, 21:30 +0200 schrieb Mike McGrath: > > On Fri, 3 Oct 2008, Thomas Spura wrote: > > > > > Hi. > > > > > > Sorry if this discussion has already been made... > > > > > > Why isn't it possible to configure an smtp-server to send > > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] mails? > > > > > > Without it, I'm not able to properly use my fedora-mailadress - at least > > > at the moment. > > > > > > Or are there any workarounds for people without an own mail-server? > > > > > > > In your mail client you should be able to set a @fedoraproject.org > > address.

Re: smtp-server?
At the moment, it should not be possible to set a @fedoraproject.org adress in any mail client - natively. Only via From headers, which allows your email to appear as being 'from' your aliases, but only appearing...[1] I whished you could set up a smpt server in order to make it possible to send mails from the fedoraproject account. At the moment i'm only able to receive mails, via another mail-box, but am not able to sent mails which 'appear' to be from @fedoraproject.org Thomas [1] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EmailAliases Am Freitag, den 03.10.2008, 21:30 +0200 schrieb Mike McGrath: > On Fri, 3 Oct 2008, Thomas Spura wrote: > > > Hi. > > > > Sorry if this discussion has already been made... > > > > Why isn't it possible to configure an smtp-server to send > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] mails? > > > > Without it, I'm not able to properly use my fedora-mailadress - at least > > at the moment. > > > > Or are there any workarounds for people without an own mail-server? > > > > In your mail client you should be able to set a @fedoraproject.org > address.

smtp-server?
Hi. Sorry if this discussion has already been made... Why isn't it possible to configure an smtp-server to send [EMAIL PROTECTED] mails? Without it, I'm not able to properly use my fedora-mailadress - at least at the moment. Or are there any workarounds for people without an own mail-server? -Thomas ___ Fedora-infrastructure-list mailing list Fedora-infrastructure-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-infrastructure-list

New SMTP Server
I finally found the right person regarding our SMTP server, previously no one had any idea what I was talking about. Now I'm being told it will likely be weeks before we find out. -Mike ___ Fedora-infrastructure-list mailing list Fedora-infrastructure-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-infrastructure-list
