sendmail timeout

[Karl Hammerschmidt]

Sendmail times out when mailing to addresses outside my ISP.

/var/log/maillog shows the mail received by localhost and then it times out
sending to the domain of the recipient. It keeps trying to send
intermittently. It goes fine if I send to an address that's hosted at my
ISP.

How could I diagnose the problem?

Re: sendmail timeout

Thanks for the tip!

Telnet does fail, and I found out that my ISP (earthlink) is known to block
25. The information I found said to put 'mail.earthlink.net' in SMART_HOST
in /etc/mail/sendmail.mc. Is that /etc/mail/freebsd.mc on a freebsd system?

I tried putting it there, but it seems to get ignored. The docs on
sendmail.org say things like LOCAL_RELAY override SMART_HOST, but I didn't
find anything like that in freebsd.mc.

Anybody know what I did wrong?

praise and thanks

Thanks to everybody who helped me with sendmail. I hope to be able to do the same. 
Your advice allowed me to get things running, so that I could troubleshoot the rest of 
the setup, and explained some things that I hadn't found in the material that I had 
read (much of iwhich was outdated and meant for other operating systems).

Thanks again!

k3b package

[Karl Hammerschmidt]

Hi,

I was planning to install k3b from a package, but I wasn't
able to find it in packages-6-stable or packages-6.0-release
on any of the ftp mirrors.

Am I missing something?

The port works just fine. I already installed it. I was only going to use 
packages because I was in a hurry.

I did notice that it depends on libdvdcss, as does kaffeine. I couldn't find 
either of them in any of the subdirectories under pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386 on any 
of the mirrors that I checked, including several non-US ones. I used an ftp 
client to double-check, so I'm not just relying on the output of 'pkg_add -r'. 
Given that they rely on libdvdcss, maybe they aren't on the server for legal 
reasons. (DMCA, etc.)
