may be you already know.....but just for the information....I am including my findings..... I am planning to include VERP support in my org. bounce back servers which run on sendmail..... This is possible if you have MAP_REGEX flag enabled while compilation......as the VERP header is checked with the regular expression and then a desired action is taken.... The thing that I was missing : regex-0.12.tar.gz rx-1.5 which you can get from GNU ftp site: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/ after compiling this source codes(./configure ; make ; make install)...librx.a file will be created place will be placed in /usr/lib/ also the include files will be placed in /usr/local/include/. Now you need to place the following line APPENDDEF(`confMAPDEF',`-DPH_MAP') APPENDDEF(`confLIBS', `-lphclient') APPENDDEF(`confINCDIRS', `-I/usr/local/include') APPENDDEF(`confLIBDIRS', `-L/usr/local/lib') APPENDDEF(`confMAPDEF', `-DMAP_REGEX')dnl APPENDDEF(`confINCDIRS', `-I/usr/include') APPENDDEF(`confLIBDIRS', `-L/usr/lib') in the sendmail-8.13.4/devtools/Site/site.config.m4 go to the sendmail-8.13.4 folder and compile the sendmail with the following command: $./Build ../devtools/Site/site.config.m4 You will see MAP_REGEX and other options which sendmail is being compiled... $./Build install After installation use the following command to see whether the sendmail is compiled with the MAP_REGEX flag set or not: [root@optra root]# sendmail -bt -d0.4 root Version 8.13.4 Compiled with: DNSMAP LOG MAP_REGEX MATCHGECOS MILTER MIME7TO8 MIME8TO7 NAMED_BIND NETINET NETUNIX NEWDB PH_MAP PIPELINING SCANF STARTTLS USERDB XDEBUG Now you can include any regular expression and a custom ruleset to match your requirement and to take an action accordingly....

I dont know exactly which file do I need to tune. I use RHEL 3.0 and sendmail 8.13 tar ball downloaded from sendmail.org. I have tried editing devtools/Site/site.config.m4.sample by keeping and entry APPENDDEF(`confMAPDEF', `-DMAP_REGEX')dnl but no luck Thanks Opesh -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=subscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
