Problem with sendmail
I am unable to receive any email send to my box. I am running 4.6.2 with sendmail 8.12.6_1. When I try to send a test mail to another source which I then redirect back to my box I obtain the following message in /var/log/maillog Oct 16 15:56:09 infinity sendmail[947]: g9GJu9Ow000947: from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, size=707, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,proto=ESMTP, relay=acheng@localhost Oct 16 15:56:09 infinity sm-mta[950]: g9GJu9rH000950: from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, size=1016, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, proto=ESMTP, daemon=MTA, relay=localhost.kettering.edu [127.0.0.1] Oct 16 15:56:09 infinity sendmail[949]: g9GJu9Ow000947: to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=30297, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (g9GJu9rH000950 Message accepted for delivery) Oct 16 15:56:10 infinity sm-mta[952]: g9GJu9rH000950: to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, delay=00:00:01, xdelay=00:00:01, mailer=relay, pri=30606, relay=mailhost.kettering.edu [192.138.137.2], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (g9GJruw23876 Message accepted for delivery) Oct 16 15:56:10 infinity sm-mta[953]: g9GJuArH000953: from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, size=1482, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, proto=ESMTP, daemon=MTA, relay=nova.kettering.edu [192.138.137.2] Oct 16 15:56:10 infinity mail.local: setreuid(0, 1000): Operation not permitted (r=1, e=1) Oct 16 15:56:10 infinity sm-mta[954]: g9GJuArH000953: to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=local, pri=31744, dsn=5.0.0, stat=Service unavailable Oct 16 15:56:10 infinity sm-mta[954]: g9GJuArH000953: g9GJuArH000954: DSN: Service unavailable Oct 16 15:56:11 infinity sm-mta[954]: g9GJuArH000954: to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, delay=00:00:01, xdelay=00:00:01, mailer=relay, pri=32768, relay=mailhost.kettering.edu [192.138.137.2], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (g9GJrvw23884 Message accepted for delivery) Oct 16 15:56:16 infinity sm-mta[957]: g9GJuGrH000957: from=<>, size=4067, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, proto=ESMTP, daemon=MTA, relay=nova.kettering.edu [192.138.137.2] Oct 16 15:56:16 infinity mail.local: setreuid(0, 1000): Operation not permitted (r=1, e=1) Oct 16 15:56:16 infinity sm-mta[958]: g9GJuGrH000957: to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=local, pri=34289, dsn=5.0.0, stat=Service unavailable Oct 16 15:56:16 infinity sm-mta[958]: g9GJuGrH000957: g9GJuGrH000958: postmaster notify: Service unavailable Oct 16 15:56:16 infinity mail.local: setreuid(0, 0): Operation not permitted (r=1, e=1) Oct 16 15:56:16 infinity sm-mta[958]: g9GJuGrH000958: to=root, delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=local, pri=35313, dsn=5.0.0, stat=Service unavailable Oct 16 15:56:16 infinity sm-mta[958]: g9GJuGrH000958: g9GJuGrI000958: return to sender: Service unavailable Oct 16 15:56:16 infinity mail.local: setreuid(0, 0): Operation not permitted (r=1, e=1) Oct 16 15:56:16 infinity sm-mta[958]: g9GJuGrI000958: to=root, delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=local, pri=36337, dsn=5.0.0, stat=Service unavailable Oct 16 15:56:16 infinity sm-mta[958]: g9GJuGrH000958: Losing ./qfg9GJuGrH000958: savemail panic Oct 16 15:56:16 infinity sm-mta[958]: g9GJuGrH000958: SYSERR(root): savemail: cannot save rejected email anywhere -> And the following message in /var/log/messages Oct 16 15:56:16 infinity sm-mta[958]: g9GJuGrH000958: Losing ./qfg9GJuGrH000958: savemail panic Oct 16 15:56:16 infinity sm-mta[958]: g9GJuGrH000958: SYSERR(root): savemail: cannot save rejected email anywhere -> When I run sendmail -bv -d0.12 postmaster, I obtained the following output: Version 8.12.6 Compiled with: DNSMAP LOG MAP_REGEX MATCHGECOS MILTER MIME7TO8 MIME8TO7 NAMED_BIND NETINET NETINET6 NETUNIX NEWDB NIS PIPELINING SCANF TCPWRAPPERS USERDB XDEBUG OS Defines: BSD4_4_SOCKADDR HASFCHOWN HASFCHMOD HASFLOCK HASGETDTABLESIZE HASGETUSERSHELL HASINITGROUPS HASLSTAT HASNICE HASRANDOM HASRRESVPORT HASSETLOGIN HASSETREUID HASSETRLIMIT HASSETSID HASSETUSERCONTEXT HASSETVBUF HAS_ST_GEN HASSRANDOMDEV HASURANDOMDEV HASSTRERROR HASUNAME HASUNSETENV HASWAITPID IDENTPROTO IP_SRCROUTE LOCK_ON_OPEN SAFENFSPATHCONF USE_DOUBLE_FORK USESETEUID USESYSCTL Kernel symbols: don't use _PATH_UNIX Conf file: /etc/mail/submit.cf (default for MSP) Conf file: /etc/mail/sendmail.cf (default for MTA) Pid file: /var/run/sendmail.pid (default) libsm Defines: SM_CONF_GETOPT SM_CONF_LONGLONG SM_CONF_MEMCHR SM_CONF_MSG SM_CONF_SEM SM_CONF_SETITIMER SM_CONF_SHM SM_CONF_SSIZE_T SM_CONF_STDDEF_H SM_CONF_SYS_CDEFS_H SM_CONF_UID_GID SM_HEAP_CHECK SM_OS=sm_os_freebsd SM_VA_STD Canonical name: infinity.kettering.edu a.k.a.: infinity UUCP nodename: infinity.kettering.edu a.k.a.: infinity a.k.a.: [198.110.5.123] a.k.a.: [IPv6:fe8
Re: Problem with sendmail
I have added the line recommended below but I am still getting a similiar error, except now I have Oct 17 05:43:38 infinity mail.local: setreuid(0, 0): Operation not permitted (r=1, e=1) So I decided to look for the file mail.local and notice the following: -r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin 73967 Oct 16 12:28 /usr/local/libexec/mail.local I also have mail.local at /usr/libexec/ /usr/local/bin/ but those two mail.local file has ownership root and group wheel. Shouldn't all have them have ownership root and group wheel? Many thanks once again.

Do you realize the Makefile contained therein is a plaintext, commented, quite easily understandable file? If you skimmed it you would have realized adding the 'restart' target to the make command would have done just what you needed without taking down the whole box. -- If you cc me or take the list(s) out completely I'll most likely ignore your message.

Problem with sendmail update
Hi, Hope someone can help. we're stuck trying to update Sendmail from 8.14.3 to 8.14.5 We've made & installed 8.14.5 and both the new and old versions seem to be installed and running according to PS. Whatever is starting sendmail is initiating the old version. How can we remove the 8.14.3 version or get the 8.14.5 version to run? Our PCI compliance is failing due to issues with the old version. Help much appreciated, Thanks Mervyn ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
Problem with Sendmail or pop3d
Hi all, please advice with small problem. I have the gateway running FreeBSD 4.3 with sendmail and pop3d. It seems to slow down all downloads of localy saved mails. Two months ago I can download eg. 5MB mail up to 15 secs, now it is about 2-3 mins. It is still worse and worse :-((( Where could be the problem ? Thanks for all replies.

If you're replacing the system sendmail with the version from ports, then you need to update /etc/mail/mailer.conf -- something like this: # $FreeBSD: stable/9/etc/mail/mailer.conf 93858 2002-04-05 04:25:14Z gshapiro $ # # Execute the "real" sendmail program, named /usr/local/sbin/sendmail # sendmail/usr/local/sbin/sendmail send-mail /usr/local/sbin/sendmail mailq /usr/local/sbin/sendmail newaliases /usr/local/sbin/sendmail hoststat/usr/local/sbin/sendmail purgestat /usr/local/sbin/sendmail Also, don't confuse the version of the sendmail from the config file with the version in the binary -- both of them show up in the SMTP banner: % telnet localhost smtp Trying ::1...

problem with sendmail and su
Hello. I use FreeBSD 7 with sendmail. I have a problem for sending email. More precisely, with the sender of the mail. When I'm logged to my machine in root, the mail is sent with "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" with sender. OK, no problems. When I'm logged to my machine in nicolas, the mail is sent with "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" with sender. OK, no problems. However, when I'm logged in nicolas to my machine, and if I do a "su root" or "su - root", and I send a mail, the sender will be "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" and not "[EMAIL PROTECTED]". It's a problem, because I done a "su" to be logged as root. I don't have this problem with a FreeBSD/Postfix. Thanks for your advices and helps. I don't understand this problem.

Problem with Sendmail installation on FBSD 4.8REL
I've installed Sendmail 8.12.9 on 4.8 RELEASE with sasl library support from the ports collection. The install put the binary in /usr/sbin/sendmail. It didn't update /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail. So, when I started sendmail, sasl support worked fine, but when I ran any commands which are links to /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail such as hoststat, it complained that sasl was not supported. To fix this, I just copied /usr/sbin/sendmail to /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail and everything seems fine. Is there something wrong with the port, or did I flub something up during the install? Is my workaround okay, or is my fix going to create problems elsewhere?

FreeBSD-5.1 LMTP problem with sendmail-8.12.10 and cyrus-2.1.16
Hello, I write here because I Am really clueless. there is a probem I have since a very long time which I Am not able to solve. I have now sendmail-8.12.10 and cyrus-2.1.16 I have all the time a "Connection refused to localhost" error like if the /var/imap/socket/lmtp cannot be opened by sendmail but the file permissions are correct that is root:cyrus. mailer=cyrusv2, relay=localhost, dsn=4.4.1, stat=Deferred: Connection refused by localhost sometimes I have another error: mailer=cyrusv2, pri=35544, relay=localhost, dsn=4.3.5, stat=Deferred: No such file or directory but this has not a specific reason, it depends from time to time. I Can reboot the system and it works or it just give me the above errors. Once the system starts up with no error cyrus and sendmail will work flawlessy, once I Reboot and the error above does occour sendmail+cyrus won't ever work. THe same things of course happens starting cyrus and sendmail by hand and killing them and restart them again, sometimes works sometimes not. This is a problem because my mailserver has to serve for 500 users. All the settings are corrects at my eyes here are the directory permissions for cyrus: /var/imap drwxr-xr-x 3 cyrus cyrus 512 Jan 13 11:33 certs drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus cyrus 512 Jan 16 11:09 db drwx-- 2 cyrus cyrus 512 Jan 16 11:09 db.backup1 drwx-- 2 cyrus cyrus 512 Jan 16 11:08 db.backup2 drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus cyrus 512 Jul 8 2003 db.backup3 -rw--- 1 cyrus cyrus 15663104 Jan 16 11:18 deliver.db drwxr-xr-x 3 cyrus cyrus 1024 Dec 16 2002 deliverdb drwxr-xr-x 3 cyrus cyrus 1024 Dec 16 2002 deliverdb.old drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus cyrus 512 Dec 16 2002 log drwxr-xr-t 2 cyrus cyrus 9728 Dec 16 2002 lost+found -rw--- 1 cyrus cyrus 36720 Dec 16 2002 mailboxes -rw--- 1 root wheel 36720 Jan 8 2003 mailboxes.OK -rw--- 1 cyrus cyrus229376 Jan 16 11:17 mailboxes.db -rw--- 1 root wheel172032 Jan 8 2003 mailboxes.db.OK -rw--- 1 root wheel163840 Dec 16 2002 mailboxes.db.bck -rw--- 1 cyrus cyrus163840 Dec 16 2002 mailboxes.db.old drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus cyrus 512 Dec 16 2002 msg drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus cyrus 14336 Jan 16 11:18 proc drwxr-xr-x 28 cyrus cyrus 512 Dec 16 2002 quota drwxr-xr-x 28 cyrus cyrus 512 Dec 16 2002 sieve drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus cyrus 512 Jan 16 11:09 socket -rw--- 1 cyrus cyrus65 Dec 16 2002 ssrvtab -rw--- 1 cyrus cyrus737280 Jan 16 11:18 tls_sessions.db drwxr-xr-x 27 cyrus cyrus 512 Dec 16 2002 user here is /var/imap/socket drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus cyrus 512 Jan 16 11:09 . drwxr-xr-x 17 cyrus cyrus 512 Jan 16 11:09 .. -rw--- 1 cyrus cyrus0 Jan 16 10:47 imap-0.lock -rw--- 1 cyrus cyrus0 Jan 16 10:47 imaps-0.lock srwxrwxrwx 1 root cyrus0 Jan 16 11:09 lmtp -rw--- 1 cyrus cyrus0 Jan 16 11:00 lmtp-0.lock -rw--- 1 cyrus cyrus0 Jan 16 11:09 lmtpunix-0.lock -rw--- 1 cyrus cyrus0 Jan 16 10:47 pop3-0.lock -rw--- 1 cyrus cyrus0 Jan 16 10:49 pop3s-0.lock the /var/imap/socket/lmtp file is created by cyrus so I cannot understand why sendmail gives me errors, I Really cannot figure out the permissions are just fine. Here is the sendmail configuration: Mcyrusv2, P=[IPC], F=lsDFMnqXzA@/:|m, S=EnvFromSMTP/HdrFromL, R=EnvToL/HdrToL, E=\r\n, T=DNS/RFC822/SMTP, A=FILE /var/imap/socket/lmtp I don't really know anymore what to do with this problem. Sometimes the problem disappears and sendmail+cyrus works, sometimes it comes out. At the end I could solve the problem with this sendmail configuration: Mcyrusv2, P=/usr/local/cyrus/bin/deliver, F=lsDFMnqXzA@/:|m, S=EnvFromSMTP/HdrFromL, R=EnvToL/HdrToL, E=\r\n, T=DNS/RFC822/SMTP, U=cyrus:cyrus, A=deliver -e -m $h -- $u so I Call directly the deliver program and I have no problem anymore. I do not know why when I use lmtp I run always in the "Connection to localhost refused" and sometimes I run into "No such file or directory" but this happens randomly. I am running sendmail+cyrus on FreeBSD-5.1 could it be a problem due to FreeBSD softupdates ? I have soft updates enabled on the /var/imap and /var/spool/imap partition. THe partition is on a RAID10 storage system. Could someone pelase give me at least some hints which could help me to solve the problem? I had the same problem also on a standard no-RAID disk always FreeBSD. I also tryed O DefaultUser=cyrus:cyrus for sendmail but also this did not help me. So I have no clue anymore. thanks Rick ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
