Any suggestions?
What about postfix?
A friend of mine installed and configured it just some days ago on our
vserver
(running ArchLinux).
Thank you...
That would work but I would like something smaller/lighter if I can find
something.
I am only wanting to send an email from smartctl to the email server. I
have it working on the mailserver and want to make it work on the desktop
level.
Like this
00 00 * * * /usr/sbin/smartctl -a /dev/sda | mail -s smartctl-sda
root@localhost
Aha, this is a little different then. For situations like this, I
always configure msmtp to send via my google account. Could that be an
option?
Maybe I am looking at the wiki on msmtp now.
GNU Mailutils might work too the following is from GNU mailutils
mail.remote
The mail.remote is designed as a drop-in replacement for /usr/lib/sendmail
to forward mail directly to an SMTP gateway.
Ah yeah, if you're just forwarding mail to an existing mail server,
you shouldn't need daemons or anything - there's a lot of mail
forwarders out there: nbsmtp, msmtp, ...
Just built msmtp and installed.........
added a ~/.mailrc and a global config and it works pretty much put of
the box.
$ sudo /usr/sbin/smartctl -a /dev/sda | mail -s smartctl-sda-desktop
