On my old server, it's the sendmail-doc package. And "rpm -ql sendmail-doc" lists where all the documentation files ended up. Then go to the website for the server, Google for HowTo notes... Far from being a red herring, messages on the command line about server failures when restarting would (most likely) mean the configuration file isn't accepted, rather than be failure notices about emails going through it. You want a server to start up without any complaints, long before you worry about trying to use it. >> My access file has the local domain names and subnets added, with the >> RELAY command. >> >> localhost.localdomain RELAY >> ................. > The only difference I am seeing in the access file from all the examples > in the forum's replies and online googles is that the factory installed > default file has a slightly different syntax: > +++ > Connect:localhost.localdomain RELAY > Connect:localhost RELAY > Connect:127.0.0.1 RELAY > +++ Might be a difference in syntax since I set mine up, or it might work either way. >> I'd have suggested viewing sendmail.org, but it seems like the good >> information has been removed, or buried where I can't see it. > Doing as root: > +++ > find . -name sendmail.org -print > +++ > > doesn't find anything. Sorry, I should have made it more obvious that sendmail.org was a website address. As I've mentioned, and others too, some people find postfix less of a headache to deal with. Look it up, read through its documentation, and see what you think. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
