Can someone please post a working sendmail.mc and a corresponding
authinfo file for an account which can send email (via sendmail) using
Yahoo's email servers? I am setting up a friend's machine to send his
mail through the Yahoo email servers (he has Yahoo DSL) but despite
trying various solutions listed on the 'net, email still doesn't make it
through. The email appears to be accepted by Yahoo but then it bounces
back or gets a /DSN: Service unavailable/ error message (depending on
the sendmail settings).
Relevant entries in sendmail.mc are:
define(`SMART_HOST',`[smtp.sbcglobal.yahoo.com]')dnl
FEATURE(`authinfo',`hash /etc/mail/authinfo')dnl
define(`confAUTH_OPTIONS', `A')dnl
define(`confDONT_EXPAND_CNAMES', `True')dnl
TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`EXTERNAL DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN PLAIN')dnl
define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS', `EXTERNAL GSSAPI DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5
LOGIN PLAIN')dnl
Authinfo looks like this:
AuthInfo:smtp.sbc.mail.yahoo4.akadns.net
"U:username at sbcglobal.net" "I:username at sbcglobal.net" "P:password"
"R:sbcglobal.net" "M:PLAIN"
AuthInfo:smtp.sbcglobal.yahoo.com
"U:username at sbcglobal.net" "I:username at sbcglobal.net" "P:password"
"R:sbcglobal.net" "M:PLAIN"
AuthInfo:akadns.net
"U:username at sbcglobal.net" "I:username at sbcglobal.net" "P:password"
"R:sbcglobal.net" "M:PLAIN"
AuthInfo:yahoo.com
"U:username at sbcglobal.net" "I:username at sbcglobal.net" "P:password"
"R:sbcglobal.net" "M:PLAIN"
AuthInfo:
"U:username at sbcglobal.net" "I:username at sbcglobal.net" "P:password"
"R:sbcglobal.net" "M:PLAIN"
where username and password have been changed to protect the innocent.
Thanks,
Christopher
