RE: [cobalt-users] POP before Relay Version 1.3pr2



Brian/Christo,

It seems that the install package looks for the sendmail.cf file on the folder /etc/mail. This file lives in the /etc folder (at least on my Raq3).

Well, since I cannot dig on the package and try to fix it that's what I did:

1. Uninstall the package;
2. Backup the /etc/sendmail.sf file;
3. Cp the file sendmail.sf to the /etc/mail folder;
4. Install the package;
5. Cp the modified sendmail.sf to the folder /etc;
6. Restart sendmail.

That's it, this works for me until the next release of the package. Hope it helps.

Have a nice day.

Roberto

Are you sure it's not your access provider that's blocking the smtp?
Many of the larger providers are now doing that as a spam prevention
device. That's why many of us on this list are telling clients to use
their provider's smtp in the configurations of their email clients.
