Os :debian8 .

Code:

ping  MiWiFi.hwy
PING MiWiFi.hwy (127.0.1.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from MiWiFi.hwy (127.0.1.1): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.034 ms
64 bytes from MiWiFi.hwy (127.0.1.1): icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.036 ms

Code:

hostname
MiWiFi.hwy

Code:

cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1	localhost
127.0.1.1	MiWiFi.hwy	MiWiFi

MiWiFi.hwy is my local domain.

I want to send email from my local domain with debian8@MiWiFi.hwy ,debian8 is one of user in my local pc.

Code:

sudo cat  /etc/postfix/main.cf
smtpd_banner = $myhostname ESMTP $mail_name (Debian/GNU)
biff = no
append_dot_mydomain = no
readme_directory = no
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
myhostname = MiWiFi.hwy
mydomain = MiWiFi.hwy
myorigin = $mydomain
mydestination = MiWiFi.hwy, localhost.hwy, localhost
relayhost = 
mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8 [::ffff:127.0.0.0]/104 [::1]/128
mailbox_command = procmail -a "$EXTENSION"
mailbox_size_limit = 0
recipient_delimiter = +
inet_protocols = all
inet_interfaces = all
default_transport = error
relay_transport = error
home_mail = Maildir

To send email from localhost.

Code:

echo "it is a test" | mail -s "to send mail from local domain" xxxx@yahoo.com
send-mail: the server does not support authentication
send-mail: could not send mail (account default from /home/debian8/.msmtprc)
Can't send mail: sendmail process failed with error code 69

The log for sending email.

Code:

cat .msmtp.log
Oct 06 09:43:32 host=MiWiFi.hwy tls=off auth=on user=pengsir from=debian8@MiWiFi.hwy recipients=xxxx@yahoo.com errormsg='the server does not support authentication' exitcode=EX_UNAVAILABLE

The .msmtprc configuration file.

Code:

cat .msmtprc
account default
host MiWiFi.hwy
user pengsir
from debian8@MiWiFi.hwy
password xxxx
auth login
tls off
logfile .msmtp.log

How to fix it ?

Could you try

Code:

echo "it is a test" | mail -v -s "to send mail from local domain" xxxx@yahoo.com

The

Code:

-v

causes the mail command to be more verbose about errors.

I found this here: http://board.issociate.de/thread/291...-error-69.html

Please do note that this was the first hit when I searched google for the following: "sendmail process failed with error code 69"

You might check your ISP's terms of service. In the US, at least, most ISPs will not allow public-facing mail servers unless the user has at least a business-level account. The primary reason for this is to prevent home computers from being used to relay spam.

The right format for /etc/postfix/main.cf

Code:

queue_directory = /var/spool/postfix
command_directory = /usr/sbin
data_directory = /var/lib/postfix
mail_owner = postfix
unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 550
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
 
  
debug_peer_level = 2
debugger_command =
	 PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin
	 ddd $daemon_directory/$process_name $process_id & sleep 5
sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail.postfix
newaliases_path = /usr/bin/newaliases.postfix
mailq_path = /usr/bin/mailq.postfix
setgid_group = postdrop

myhostname =  localhost.localdomain
mydomain = localdomain
myorigin = $mydomain
inet_interfaces = all
inet_protocols = all
mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, $mydomain
mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8
home_mailbox = Maildir/
