It is very quick and reliable. If I remember correctly, the POSIXness mail script is the only part of a stock LEAF system to use netcat (nc), which is quite powerful, and thus potentially dangerous. Switching from POSIXness mail to smtpclient allowed me to drop netcat, which I considered A Good Thing. -Richard --- Sponsored by: ThinkGeek at http://www.ThinkGeek.com/ ___ Leaf-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-devel
RE: [Leaf-devel] improvement Mail Bering
Just a small suggestion, since we had a lot of issues in the past concering mail from the router: Why can't we forget about the POSIXness scripts for mail and create a (very) small package just for this function? Then we could use other methods for sending mail like something based on the 'smtpclnt.lrp' package. Please don't send me for execution right now, think first :) -Original Message- From: Jacques Nilo [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, June 20, 2002 10:17 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Jacques Nilo; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Leaf-devel] improvement Mail Bering Le Jeudi 20 Juin 2002 21:55, Eric Wolzak a écrit : > Hello Jacques, list. > > Bering mail functions, important is that the Mailserver is set in > POSIXness Settings and not in Master LRP Settings.

[Leaf-devel] improvement Mail Bering
Hello Jacques, list. Bering mail functions, important is that the Mailserver is set in POSIXness Settings and not in Master LRP Settings. Perhaps something to change ? I had a problem with attachements that were not recognised. Solved by the following change: in /lib/POSIXness/POSIXness.mail about line 243 echo "MIME-Version: 1.0" echo "Content-Type: multipart/mixed;" echo "boundary=\"$ContentBoundry\"" to echo "MIME-Version: 1.0" echo "Content-Type:multipart/mixed; boundary=\"$ContentBoundry\"" otherwise the new line will cause some MTA's to not recognize the boundary. .. in POSIXness Settings you can set USER USER="eric" DOMAIN="validdomainname,accepted from mailserver" Important is that the mail server is accepting your domain, lots of server will reject your "local.net" name if you try to post, as they assume you want to relay spam.
