Hmmm...
The error message you provide is not in my sendmail configuration. So it may be a customized error. Apart from checking that Sendmail.conf is configured correctly and in the correct place, another thing to check is /etc/mail/access and see if your being rejected by any RBLs (if your Sendmail config is checking against them) -- that being the case, put a: 1.3.4 OK in /etc/mail/access and rebuild the map. This is probably not your issue, though I've been bitten by it. It seems that Sendmail doesn't have rules to override an RBL check when the connection is AUTHenticated (and it should). I hope you can figure out your problem - if you find the answer, post it here. Someone else may benefit from it, too. Good luck. |
Hi,
I'm having trouble with authentication after following this guide. I've configured sendmail in such manner before on other machines and it was working. Now I've done the same thing again, but I just can't get the mail out from a different location. -X log: Quote:
The .mc config file: Quote:
saslauthd shows no errors at startup, no erros in log at startup, no errors while I try to send mail. Plain normal. I've ran out of ideas what to do, so I'm turning to you, if you would be so kind to help me out. Best regards, Tux-Slack P.S: one more thing, is it possible to use LDAP to authenticate users with sendmail? If so, how? |
I am having the same problem as Tux-Slack.....
I am trying to setup AUTH on my server and when I try to send mail from outside of the server its not working. Here is my config: Quote:

I followed the directions.....Did I miss something?? Can anyone please help me out with this please? UPDATE: I solved the problem. I needed to make the Sendmail.conf in /etc/sasl2, all is working fine now. |
Hi all,
Yes I know this guide is quite old, but it's still relevant. I have used this guide as a guideline and ended up hours troubleshooting what was wrong. So I really hope this helps somebody else. My 2 cents for this guide: it's pretty complete and I used it as a base for my setup. However, there is some wrong information in this that will probably have you searching like a madman for what's wrong. I tested and at first it looked like I was able to send mail from my domain to other domains. The only exception was hotmail. In my mail I found this: Code:
Mar x 13:50:38 nonono sendmail[15768]: s25Co22n015752: AUTH=client, available mechanisms do not fulfill requirements Then I took a tcpdump capture: Code:
220 SNT0-MC1-F47.Snt0.hotmail.com Sending unsolicited commercial or bulk e-mail to Microsoft's computer network is prohibited. Other restrictions are found at http://privacy.microsoft.com/en-us/anti-spam.mspx. Let me explain the log message: Code:
AUTH=client: this means that sendmail is acting as a client here (so sendmail connects to hotmail mail servers Code:
AuthInfo:yahoo.com "U:siege.x@sbcglobal.net" "P:pAsSWoRd" "M:PLAIN" Remove this line. If there isn't one then sendmail will just try to send the mail without trying to authenticate. I already removed this line from the config file. However it seemed that I forgot to recreate the hashmap with makemap. After a restart my mails arrived. Note that if you are using smarthost functionality this might never be a problem as in the end you always have to authenticate against one mail relay server. I really appreciate your guide. Thank you for your efforts. Just one sidenote: please, if you don't know what something does, please don't just ignore it. I would have tested it with and without this to see if I actually need it. |
hi
Thank you all..
