How do I use sendmail for mail delivery with UUCP? yep, that part of the FAQ is in a sorry state and has been for some time. Thanks for reminding us that it needs to be fixed. Anyway, the following .mc file should solve your problem: VERSIONID(`nathan-3') OSTYPE(bsd4.4) FEATURE(nocanonify) <---- FEATURE(accept_unresolvable_domains) <---- FEATURE(mailertable, `hash -o /etc/mail/mailertable') FEATURE(local_procmail) define(`confDONT_PROBE_INTERFACES') <---- define(`confAUTO_REBUILD', `true') define(`UUCP_RELAY', ruhr-nathan) define(`UUCP_MAX_SIZE', 1000000) MAILER(local) MAILER(smtp) MAILER(uucp) I think (I'm no sendmail guru!) that the marked entries are needed for a uucp-only setup where the nameserver is not queried. At least, the above .mc works for me. You can probably nuke most other lines in the middle block (especially confAUTO_REBUILD and local_procmail). And yes, there is no smart host setting. Can you try this file and give me feedback if it solved your problem? I don't want to "fix" the FAQ with a non-working example and I do not have a pure UUCP box anymore... /s/Udo --=20 The first rule of system administration: Always put your best foot forward; straight into the groin of anyone who stands in your way --FFoLq8A0u+X9iRU8 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (FreeBSD) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iQCVAwUBO93E7EPoh1XnT6hxAQH/WwP/eMnFsOTc+kB3pPvsJX0AbjSlc0k3Db4b 5zxd2q9Kc0W/hakSbJHF8T49Dp43CChMX1+0NMFssdO9dwrC8YHc1hZQcZUvC46V KKSY4TrSEAnGwqYL7PCZqt5BpA+RP7uM94NGSLBokY5IW6V8bRE8X1oabiw0qQoH eAf8mx0soIU= =UuUE -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --FFoLq8A0u+X9iRU8-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
