I have a sendmail question.
Can someone point me to a list appropriate to get some sendmail.mc help?
----
try here first
My fax server (fax.foo.com) is suppose to receive mail to:
user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and execute:
/usr/bin/faxmail -d user@ext
I found the following items to add to sendmail.mc:
define(`FAX_MAILER_PATH',`/usr/bin/faxmail')dnl
define(`FAX_MAILER_ARGS',`faxmail -d -n -p 12pt $u@$h $f')dnl
MAILER(`fax')dnl
I have set up DNS with a pseudo domain:
sip.foo.com. IN A 192.168.1.100
fax.foo.com. IN A 192.168.1.100
*.fax.foo.com. IN MX 10 fax.foo.com
nslookup shows this to work, and in fact my POP mail server does try to
send mail addessed:
to: joe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
To fax.foo.com, that gets sent back to me with the error information:
----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors -----
<joe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
----- Transcript of session follows -----
554 5.0.0 MX list for 222.fax.foo.com. points back to sip.foo.com
554 5.3.5 Local configuration error
sendmail is NOT suppose to try to relay; it is suppose to accept this
for local delivery, and not do a DNS lookup on 222.fax.foo.com....
So obviously I need more sendmail help. Then I will have to set it up
via webmin....
It is interesting that when you ask this question directly on the
Hylafax mail list, either no one answers, or point you to URLs that give
partial answers.
I know that DNS can act strange with 2 A records to the same address. That is what CNAME is suppose to be for. Now that I see that I am not expecting email to sip.foo.com, I could make that the cname. Of course the host name is sip.foo.com with fax a service on it....
