configure sendmail
 

Hi,

I use FC4 I have a registered domain. I want to configure sendmail to just allow a script to send me mails to my webmail account. where can I find a document which can show me how to do it ?

thanks !

You don't necessarily need to configure sendmail as a listening smtp server unless you want to create your own domain email server.

mail -s "subject" user@domain.com [options/message]

man mail
man sendmail

I tried but...
 

as root I issued this command:

mail -s "test" juanbabi@gmail.com this is a test

and after pressing enter I didnt recieved back a prompet.

and pf course didnt recieved the mail.

what is going wrong?

thanks

Re: I tried but...
 

You have to hit enter and then place a period ( . ) then enter again for it to send.

still cant send mail
