I can't seem to get my Fedora Core 4 machine to do smart relay to an smtp server that I have an account on to be able to send mail. Work has decided to give me a new machine and with that comes web restriction where I don't have access to send mail on port 587. So since I still can connect to my home network, I want to be able to forward mail to my home machine and have it relay mail on that port to the external smtp server. I have been googling around and see that I need to configure my sendmail.mc file with the following entries: dnl define(`SMART_HOST',`smtp.gmail.com') define(`RELAY_MAILER_ARGS', `IPC $h 697')dnl then run the script that will update my sendmail.cf file. Issue 1. I don't have a default sendmail.cf file and I can't seem to find where the .cf examples are on my machine. Issue 2 (Which is probably caused by issue one) When I run the m4 command I get the following: [user@FC4FW share]$ m4 /etc/mail/sendmail.mc /etc/mail/sendmail.cf /etc/mail/sendmail.mc:10: m4: Cannot open /usr/share/sendmail-cf/m4/cf.m4: No such file or directory I also tried looking at the submit.cf file which has a smart host entry that I can put in it # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DSsmtp.foo.bar But I don't see where I can specify a specific port number to send mail on since the external server requires that I send mail on port 587. Questions1: How can I generate the sendmail.cf file so that I can have the settings I want or is it ok to just edit the submit.cf file? If it is ok to just edit the submit.cf file, how can make sure that I can send mail on a specifc port to an external server that requires authentication. </body> </html>
